As someone who didn't use any exploits. I'm kicking myself in the butt for not farming vine way and cheesing arena. Even if it was considered more of a balancing issue or whatever, it felt pretty dishonest to take advantage. I was hoping for a slightly harder stance on this issue. A lot of honest people got somewhat punished for not taking advantage of an available exploit for fear of some form of ban. I hope you'll do us justice, too. Not just a free pass to people who knew they were screwing the arena system.
Second and more importantly, Can this exp/drop rate buff please come with an RP reset?. A lot of people already used their RP for the day, so they aren't really getting any form of exp or drop rate buff from it. I'm not sure if this has been addressed already but scrolling through comments i didn't see it. Is it possible to add that in on the main post?
is the server down yet since the launcher isn't patching yet
about the auction house again - the fact that you completly rely 100% on your players to give feedback rly makes me wonder if the system has any chance to work on a long shot. the first min/max patch for example has set Lv60 skyship legendary weapons to 600 kred min. when you get one for free at 65... so if this wants to work, get some of your staff to actively play this game on endgame levels!!!
the maintance started 10 minutes ago
I agree with this idea, if economy and commerce exists in this game it's mostly for end game content anyway (lvl 60-65 gear), so why not make trading available around lvl 50 or 60? In my opinion i only started looking at AH and prices around lvl 60 when i was trying to gear up anyway, like there is no point of using trading for lvl 20 weapons for example since u lvl up quite fast for it to be worth the investment. Also scrolls and stones are mostly used to +15 late game gear, so those materials are quite important late game rather then early where a +3 is enough for most dungeons. So with that i think economy should be for the veterans and for the ones who invest time into the game. Again its my opinion, i can be wrong but if power is given to everyone then yeah stuff breaks, so why not give it to those who work for it?
Thanks for reading and for any feedback guys.
@Smoreceror - Any chance RP will be reset with the patch? It seems like the boosted drop rate always comes down the line after I have burned all my RP
Lmao you're not the only player here...so dont feel so important...just because you enjoy it doesnt mean everyone does
When you burned all your RP earlier today and then they posted, "we’re providing a 30 percent increase to drop rates and Danger Zone completion EXP for 24 hours!"
@PCYGCLGRFE I mean, it doesn't make sense to ban people because a mechanic they implemented was better than expected in arena. Poison mechanics are used to clear harder dungeons in many games, but this is usually balanced by resistances from bosses etc. The mistake was that anyone can poison the arena bosses 100% of the time. People aren't dishonest for using a mechanic in the game even if it was stupidly strong.
hmm im rather impressed with how well you guys are handling the situation and i really appreciate how yall listen to the community
I would like to say on behalf of most especially ppl who only post to criticize Thanx Alot and Keep it up!
@Smoreceror
Yes, please! Hopefully this is granted.
Either way someone gets screwed, you get screwed out of 330, we get screwed out of the additional drop rate. Calm your tits
Here is my experience doing bella extreme both before and after:
Before: 1 shot all 3 rooms, takes me 20-25 seconds full run.
After: 1 shot first room, 2 shot second room. Then I take bella to 70% then I alt tab out for 15 seconds while she does her mechanics(her "1 shot" does not actually 1 shot me". Take her to 20%, suicide from poison so I get my 1 shot ability back, alt tab for 10 secs, blow her up while she is humping her broom. Total time: 1 minute 15 seconds.
It did not get any harder, just more boring.
Funny cause it's true lol
@Smoreceror extend last week's arena rewards for those that got it? Don't send out this week's arena rewards, and make it seem like it's the start of last week arena again.
Side note;
Why is PvP have capped aspd with other capped stats? What did you guys do to mess up with the stats in arena. The pvp weapons doesn't even work, not even damage reduction. Like did you guys even look at that? I use to pvp with 162% attack speed. Now it's stuck at 130% like. I can't even combo, hardly OTG. Explaination ?
Things have limits. For example, the sh helmet only lets you take off 10% once per fight. Meanwhile this level 60 weapon let's you take off 100% just by hitting the boss any number of times.
I mean. It is still by definition an exploit. 5 minutes with it and you can see that it wasn't exactly working properly. Maybe the correct way to phrase it, is that it was working waaaay too well. In a game like dark souls or some final fantasy, its totally cool to cheese bosses. I'm confused how people can look at cash valued rewards like kred and a ranked online environment and clear with a vineway weapon at 120k CR and not anticipate some consequences. I don't think people who cheesed arena thought about how balanced and fair it was. They mostly thought "haha this is broken, but Enmasse can't possibly ban all 30/50/70 of us. So lets all cheese this and get free stuff!"
That's mostly off-topic at this point cause my opinion means butt. Lets talk about this juicy auction house fix we've been begging for and drop rate buff.
Maybe my pile of SH gear will finally find a home Q.Q.. If nothing else i can make it cheap for a few buddies who were fresh 65's getting depressed by the low cr endgame struggle.
They should make so that it shows in hubs. It worked before starhenge patch so why it was "disabled". Etherforce attack also don't increase combat rating in hubs but when learning in dungeon CR increases. In dungeon my CR shows as 80K but in hubs it is 70K. When someone is looking for party members they don't care that my CR hits the mark in dungeon as long they see my CR in hub they don't invite. I can't play with big boys because I have small wee wee.
I always considered you the best publisher cause you ACTUALLY HEAR your players and you confirmed it once more. Good job EM, thank you!
well as i remember right this CR thing was released on the KR server with the new arena. There were releasing 2nd awakenings and you need a certain number of CR to complete the 1st quest it was 170 k cp or cr ( different scaling in KR) and people would cheese this with potions K perks and other stuff and actually have done those quest with 100 k and more.
Comment of the year... I liked this... and then i unliked it... just so i could like it again.
One solution would be simply not give any rewards this week, that way we all get an equal start without wings difference this week.
One question about this patch - does it fix the problem with the new high tier equipment? Right now they are weaker than middle tier (enhancement gives much lower attributes than it was supposed to).
https://forums.enmasse.com/kritika/discussion/2993/absurd-bug-new-high-tier-starhenge-items-weaker-than-middle-tier
I'm superman, almost impossible to do 120 as fast as catspaw/vamp
It's overall a good patch, nice !
this is great, tbh the 202 patch has put me off all my alts completely as it was too hard to find a party for SH dung with 20-30k cr and doing easy/normal didnt feel rewarding enough, but now i can see my self going back to activating my alts again
Think it was me, coolgav, and you wasn't it ? I got 1:40
The people who didn't play yet won't get screwed out of anything at all since they would still not have used ANY RP. It would only give them +30% extra for the day. Its like talking about piracy losing you money when the dude wasn't ever going to buy it in the first place regardless.
I'll still need to see how things are post patch before I feel strongly one way or another, but either way, I'm quite glad to see a hotfix instead of waiting for the next major content patch to fix things. All & all, I'm at the least optimistic. Still hoping to see accuracy just get the axe, but I'll not look a gift horse in the mouth as long as he doesn't bite my head.
So the patch didn't reset RP. So I am going to miss out on the +30% drop rate for today.
If it's way too easy for you heres what you can do. go use no gear, or maybe clean gear, without pots or skills or anything boosting your cr/dmg etc, then you can have fun reviving. on extreme mode of course..
