Timed Task Forces give what??

[malewitch40]

Been doing Timed Task Forces because someone said they give a bonus, if so, exactly what?  I do not see more merits, I do not see a badge for completing the Task Force in the allotted time limits.  So what is the reward?  Just bonus exp?  A Single Origin?  Am i missing something here?  Any info appreciated!

They do not give a bonus.

The only "extra" you get from a faster TF is the opportunity to earn more merits doing something else. Depends on what's fun for you and what your goals are, I'd say. 

Now, in Ouro, completing most of those arcs in 30:00, 1:00 and 2:00 (2 hours, not 2 minutes) will get you a badge for each time limit met. But outside of Ouro - nope.

Thank you much!  You explained everything i need to know.

Most of us set the timer so everyone knows how we are flowing.  Half the gamers are OCD and the other half are WTF

And don't get tripped up by that "most".  A good rule of thumb is that, if a mission or arc already awards a badge for completing it, it probably doesn't count for the 'optional' badges like no deaths, 30 minute timer, no travel powers, etc.

That was the case before some past issue.  They disabled that because of reasons with the caveat that the behaviour would go back to that, but it hasn't yet.

 

So if you want to, for the level 50 arcs, just run Heather's Personal Mission a few times for all the relevant badges.
