For sure, they are so consumed with trying to fix the ranking system and lag issues, that everything else is a low priority. But in our favor Red Libra works. It's just a matter of them getting approval to offer it more frequently, if they can't give Mammon same functionality of Red Libra merchants all the time. I would be happy with one week every month we get the Red Libra merchants. It's tried and true and works. Players will always complain about latency, but this would give them something else to do in the meantime.

I agree with everyone that a Hiero will never be mistaken for a DD. You can go all Warrior skills tree, cater your dual class skills for damage, give it +15 STR, equip it with a +12 Bloody Krishna weapon with 450 attribute, have every Talisman and jewel boost possible, but it will still kill slower than a pure DD, especially with higher level mobs. It can solo XP in some spots, especially with greens, and it is a good change of pace sometimes, but never lose sight that the ISS is designed mainly for support. Since your skill tree isn't something that you want to constantly change, I suggest going with Knight skills to help keep your ISS upright during those long grinds. Your party mates will thank you.

I hate the way the weapons market achieves absolute entropy the minute Red Libra ends. Whether it's the AH or the private sellers, the same damn weapons have been in the shops for almost a month now. And it's not just because of the prices or demand. People want weapons, but they just aren't able to find the type of weapon that they need. It's time to permanently update the Blacksmith of Mammon with functionality of a true Black merchant and permit exchange of R, R95, R99 Blessed/Bloody/Dark weapons. Not only would doing so stimulate the server economy, but it would assist players with getting to higher levels, picking dual classes that have different weapons needs, and absorbing excess adena on all servers as R gems, crystals, etc., will no doubt be consumed as people change Dark/Bloody attributes. The exchange would also eventually lower the prices of weapons, which would ultimately contribute to the number of R110 weapons that are created on the server as players are more likely to enchant and upgrade R99 weapons when the prices are low. Think about it seriously and please make R, R95 and R99 weapon exchange a permanent feature.
