Wow. Just wow.
Fierst time i see devs asking for help/advice over this game....
Wasnt going to wright anything beacause its just useless but after reeding all this posts i have to leave here my comment.
Most of the players complaining now are the top players that are farming 10b++ per day. The new, ungeard are ussed to this crap xp/drops for years so the game hasnt changed for them.
Most of the ideas just wont come in game and ill tell you why:
1- Ncsoft predator sales keeps bringing uber items that stack up and make some characters just SUPER OP.
2-They will not improve xp base cause theres guys running 1200++xp boost. So increasing the base xp these guys will level up to fast.
3-Adena/drop rate has to be super nerfed cause they run 200%drop rate and 300%adena drops making them able to farm billions.
And if you think trully on this basses of the game you know what ever changes they bring in, it will not serve the majority neverless bring balance to a game that is broken for a long time.
So after this, sadly, i think its time to just let it role over and die.
Shut down the servers and in a few months launch something new, fresh, not doing these same mistakes, and others, so we all can have back the l2 experience that got lost.
Great game, some updates better then otheres, but its time to move on.
Cheers
