    With the addition of events, it has become increasingly difficult to complete Star Hoarder quests. I believe they create a dilemma that warrants a consideration for their complete removal from the game. At the very least, please consider an elimination of these quests from Impossible guild quest boards during events. The Star Hoarder guild quest essentially discourages event participation. Guild members are "forced" to compete in normal battles for stars in lieu of earning battle coins. Unfortunately, this instance is worsened by extremely long queue times for normal battles. With so few people playing, these battles are also comprised of the same 7-8 participants. Some of which are rivalry guild members who are also suffering the "punishment" of the Star Hoarder quest. I don't believe this issue receives much attention since it isn't an issue until there is an event. However, this quest becomes insufferable for guilds who routinely complete 72+ guild quests each week. For example, my guild just completed a Star Hoarder quest this morning to hit 72 completed for the rivalry only to be facing another Star Hoarder quest on the next impossible board. Normally this quest would just be ignored until the event ended and normal battle could be resumed. Unfortunately, the recent addition of a 7 day event is forcing us to weigh two options: 1) turn off boosts & concede the rivalry or 2) continue suffering normal battles for stars during an event. The 7 day event also carries the potential for these Star Hoarder issues to affect all guild quest boards when the rivalry resets later this week.

    This is definitely something the devs are looking at. I would expect a change (not guaranteed).

    Maybe a system where either stars or coins are counted as valid. Stars can be worth 5 points each, coins worth 1. This way you can keep the title "Star Hoarder" and earning stars will be more effective, but earning coins will help.

    I support improvements to star quests. There are pros and cons to star quests being in the game, but ultimately, I think that being forced to play ranked during events, takes away more fun than it adds.

    I don’t think I’d want to see them removed. The problem is being unable to earn them for event games.
