Feedback from my point of view:
- While the effort to make some grade appropriate armor and weapons available is appreciated...
Armor:
The amount of cloths for S grade is insane. Given the most recent prices of cloths of 8-25 mil EACH (was 8 prior to this event giving S armor) :
* Drac Light or Arcana robes ~ Body 47 cloths, Helm 14 cloth, Gloves 10 cloth, Boots, 10 cloths = Total 81 cloths = 648 mil - 2.025 bil adena to unseal
* Imp Cruisador Heavy - Upper Body 38, Lower Body 24, Gloves 10, Boots 10, Helm, 14 = 96 Cloths (wtf) = 768 mil - 2.4 bil adena to unseal.
Even with how things were way back in the day, unsealing S grade wasn't that rediculas of a price.
Weapons:
It is appreciated that the ability to obtain S weps for MOST CLASSES is possible here is one thing that is highly off:
* Tallum Blade * Dark Legions Edge Dualswords (S Duals)
These are needed for anyone (though it may be few there are still a few) who wish to main class a SPECTRAL DANCER or DUALIST. At this point I've tried to make a pair 8 times and failed each time. Yes I understand the wish to make them more rare then A grade, but this is far from balanced compared to all the other classes being able to obtain any other weapon. And Dualists and Dancers REQUIRE the dualswords in order to even use their skills at all.
- Epic raids....
Lowering the HP seems to me kinda dumb, these are EPICS they should take longer to kill. Removing the Requirement to PORT INTO an epic is also kinda dumb. There used to eb sooo many epic PVPs to gain access into Baium, Antharas and Zaken. These should not have been moved out of their normal homes and the doors removed.
With how fast it is to power through to lvl 40-52 Lower level raids such as Core, Ant Queen and Orfen would highly benefit from a level and stat increase. A single high level orc full skilled should not be able to kill 95% of the health of an Epic in a matter of seconds even before a barrier goes off.
- Drops...
These NEED to be ADDED back to the drop tables in all the high level areas, the cost of ore and shots is exorbitant and not receiving any drops whatsoever is what causes the huge server population of farming groups who live in a single spot for months just trying to make enough adena for the main characters of those farmers to afford to hunt in other locations..
