You can constantly farm feedstocks from dungeons and VG rewards. Same with alkahests. But there's no such certain thing for SES.
Not getting 4 Crit Factor and 4 Power after 500 SES is a horror story you wouldn't want to happen to yourself, but I've seen it and heard about it and even experienced it myself. And you have two rings to roll it! Imagine the horror of tanks and healers which also have to properly - or even just decently - roll earrings, as well. Not to mention having another set for pvp!
I don't know, man. If not getting 4 Crit Factor and 4 Power after those 700 SES of yours doesn't break you then I guess it's okay..
as a helaer i had no problem gettin my rolls.. less than 100 ses for all my set... and im with same set for 2 years almost lol...
but that's YOU. that\s like someone saying " i only tried once to get+15". itsNOT everyone.
also as previously staed in this thread, healers don't need to re-roll gear that often.
so think about other for a minute, call it an "average" and then you might be close to what some players need to rerolll. ( 100 ses per jewel)
look, this thread is not to start some sh*t, it's simply to promote the idea of eitheradding ses to the IoD token store or making a lower tier level for desolarus or a way to farm personal ses.
the economy will not "die" from that.
this is an idea not something that will happen, so calm down.
sux to watch everyone gettin better rings and being stuck with the same thing for years tbh lol
and yeah, back to topic:
im against a new tiers of ses.... but an extra way to get them isnt bad ideia... IoD bams already drop them... so dont know if token is a good ideia..
maybe increase the drop rate from mobs that drop them (not iod bams). but i already got some ses from regular mobs on random maps...
dont know which one tho
forget "tiers", that was a bad word to use. an extra way to get them is better.
adding to token store would be easiest.
There really is no way to get a fixed amount for stuff like enhanting/awakening/rerolling. I guess what everyone's trying to say is that we need a constant, reliable source of SES, like how we do with feedstocks (VG rewards, dungeons) or alkahests (mostly VG credits). BAM drops are abysmal - like 1/30 in my experience in IOD - and you can open 20 Bonanzas and not get the SES price, so they're both not reliable and constant.
Given the importance of jewelries AND belt in gearing (6/7 pieces for every single character!), it would really be nice to have a way to be able to farm SES.
I mean, I do think it would make a good gold sink if it was made available through NPC, and I wouldn't complain so much if they did it; but that would be too easy and would kill SES economy. At least something like VG credit merchant/token or somewhere along those lines would be nice.
Trade Broker is reliable source of SES, why are people trying to take away a source for PvPers to make gold?
So, do you want every person to rely on PVPers for SES? Not trying to argue with you, just asking a question.
What about the new players without gold and want to get SES? The diehard PVEers who want to farm SES for themselves? Those who don't like PVP but need SES?
Feedstocks and alkahests and spellbinds can also be gotten from PVE, yet everyone can still make gold out of it. Just saying it would be nice if SES gets the same treatment as well, with other options available at hand.
Then sell the Feedstock, Alkahest and Spellbind? ¬.¬
Rerolling jewelry is the last thing people should work on, you'll always be broke all the time trying to work on everything at once.
"I feel that I should have these items just because I play this game like everyone else."
don't forget the lower tier MES become useless over time and cannot be "fused" to upgrade the tier. seeing how BHS didn't do anything about that, making SES tiered would have same problem. Also, jewelries don't have tiers so idk what that'll work out.
Yeah, say that again when we have to roll new rings with two extra lines added to the pool of potential rolls.
If you haven't geared a DPS alt, I'll save you time - yes, it sucks, even now. It can take well over 100 SES quite frequently for even one piece of jewelry, and several hundred or more if you're particularly unlucky. Now add a few extra rolls into that and it'll be ridiculous.
I'm all for an extra way to get SES. The Bonanza boxes really help a bunch, since before that we could really only rely on RNG BAM farming, but it would be nice to be able to get them from tokens or something too. Whoever said we're about to see a drastic increase in demand for SES is right - the supply isn't going to match how much is going to be needed, and the prices are going to skyrocket.
I don't think we can expect EME to do anything about it beforehand, though...they never do even when given ample time to consider how specific items are going to be affected with a patch.
