Collectables – What is?

Custom Deliveries – What Is?

Custom Deliveries are the easiest, most time efficient way to gain a large chunk of both types of scrips for your crafters and gatherers. If your crafter or gatherer is below max level, instead of the level cap scrips you’ll get a large amount of experience.

  • A fun additional reward for most of the clients is that they’ll let you choose their outfit. Available after fully ranking them up and completing their story. Indicated by a shirt icon on the Custom Deliveries window in the Timers Menu.

Notes

  • You only have 12 delivery allowances per week.
    Always check which deliveries have a bonus that week!
  • These are indicated on the client’s delivery window, which you can check from the Custom Deliveries option in your Timers Menu.
  • It’s randomly selected each week, it is possible to have unlucky times when nothing is given a bonus.
