WARNING: THIS THREAD MIGHT CONTAIN OUTDATED INFORMATION
Greeting, Skylords!
It's been long since a solid update, and it has come to my attention that there are tonnes of threads that still imply confusion about how BFP is earned and for what people will be rewarded. After some internal discussion, I would like to introduce you to the current proposal for our reward systems. Mind that these are proposals, none of it is definite; changes may still take place. Also note that there are no set BFP values for anything yet.
In Skylords Reborn, on a daily basis, you will be able to earn BFP in 2 ways:
Daily Quest System (3x per day) Playtime Rewards (BFP/30m, halves every 1.5h) The currently proposed (not definite) BFP rates between those systems are that 60% of the maximum amount of BFP per day can be earned through quests, and 40% through playtime, resulting in an average BFP reward per player of 75% after completing all quests, or at least something in the liking of that.
You may have noticed that there is a hard cap on one of the systems. As I have already discussed in the past, this is to prevent overfarming and to make sure people stay within the game for a longer average time. Within BF Reborn, there are 2 main currencies; BFP and Gold. We don't want to make BFP a grindable currency such as gold, as it should be a valuable and unique, limited currency you can buy cards with. So we have decided that BFP will be our limited, easily trade-able currency used to buy cards/elements/etc, and gold to be our grindable currency used for upgrades, mails, etc. Do know that we are working on making gold a useful currency, of which you shall hear more in the future.
With thanks to your valuable suggestions, I've decided to throw in a soft-cap for playtime instead. This way playing for longer will make you earn less and less BFP, but won't leave you empty-handed after 3h. Hopefully this will result in people finding more use for extended playtime, while not getting excessively ahead of someone who plays for a regular 3h. 
With regards to multi-accounting, we have come to the conclusion that yes, hard caps on reward systems may result in this, but it is more important to maintain player activity and a greater enjoyability curve, as well as lasting potential of the game by requesting players to come back another day and monitoring the rich/poor gap quite a bit, than to combat multi-accounting players who feel the need to spend yet another 3 hours and quests on the game. We can't and won't combat multi-accounting 100%, as it would result in sacrificing way too much of the game's features, enjoyability, and reward optimisation.
Daily Quests
In-depth, daily quests are, as the name implies, daily tasks a player may complete in exchange for BFP. To reach and encourage every player with this system, there will be 3 different quest types, of which the player will receive 1 each per day; a generic quest, a PvP quest and a PvE quest. Aside from tome-related quests, there will NOT be any deck-based quests, so that every player has a chance to complete the quests the way they like it.
Generic quests are quests that can be completed within any game mode, such as winning matches, playing matches, playing with friends, using tome decks, etc. PvP quests can only be completed within the PvP section, such as playing on certain maps, playing 1v1/2v2, playing x amount of PvP matches, etc. Note that winning ranked PvP matches will not be a quest, as it will be too demanding to fulfil. PvE quests can only be completed within the PvE section, such as playing on certain maps, completing certain levels of rPvE, playing maps with a set amount of players, playing at a certain difficulty, etc. An example of a daily quest set would be:
PvP: Play 2 2v2 PvP matches PvE: Play a 12-player campaign map Generic: Win a match using a tome deck Up to 9 quests will be allowed to stack up, so you could leave the game for 3 days and not miss out on any Daily Quest rewards. If there are any quests stacking up that you are not interested in as a player or can't seem to complete, you can remove this quest from the board, gaining no BFP whatsoever, and make more room for new quests.
In order to give a little freedom in case a player doesn't like a quest, one quest can be re-rolled per day. This re-roll will result in the non-preferred quest to be exchanged for a random other quest from the Generic type, but will only net the player 75% of the BFP reward they would have been able to obtain by completing the original quest.
Refer-a-Friend
We are intending on making the friend referral system a thing. However, we will make sure all rewards obtained from this system will be mostly account-bound and will most likely not include cards anymore. Think of rewards such as elements, gold, and maybe some BFP rewards for spending time with referred friends. We are thinking of implementing a system that not only rewards players for referring friends, but also for playing with said referred player. Rewards will be mutual and mostly untradeable. There's not much more to say about this.
Social Media
Additionally, our current idea is to also implement rewards for liking/following/subscribing/etc. On social media. Such actions may result in un-tradeable rewards or small amounts of BFP. The rewards themselves are uncertain, but we'd really like to encourage spreading the word and this would be a perfect solution. This would be a web-based process (accounts are likely going to be bound to a web database).

So those are the currently proposed ways of earning rewards within the game. Feel free to discuss these systems below and ask questions, just do remember this is not definite, but merely our current system proposal.
