Things to remove that are outdated or serve zero purpose in version of L2:
Dragon Weapon Fragment - No use since we got a lot of dragon weapon and people save claws to make level 2 and 3 weapons - REMOVE
Scroll Enchant - Artifact Book / Kalilel Bracelet - Farmed easy enough in PI and not expensive on the market a lot cheaper than 80 NC Coins are worth - REMOVE
Regular Skill Codex and Mastery Cheap easily obtained cheaper than a cost of one box - REMOVE
Grand Kain Medicine - This is a joke right? - REMOVE and please take out of game lol
Sealed Talisman Longing - USELESS - Free with Exalted gear - REMOVE
Freya Ice Rose - REMOVE
Freya Scroll of Storm - REMOVE
Artifact Fragment - 1? Are you serious you can buy 1 for 55 NC Coins but here I spend 80 for same one? Your own store contradicts you. - INCREASE x 10 frag a pull to make it actual prize.
Spelndor Frags - ADD at least x 10 also
Blood/Dark Armor Stones - ADD
Rune Stone - 8 Pack - Traceable - ADD
FYI - If this a Kaliel box why are there no Greater Kaliel bracelets in it at least or Kalilel Augment stones? Or did you miss that memo too? - ADDD
I mean just look at the L2 store and if you can get it for cheaper than 70/80 NC Coins it should never be in a prize box. Simple simple gosh darn marketing. I mean this is Marketing 101 anyone that went through High School basic business class would know these things lol
"Dragon Weapon Fragment - No use since we got a lot of dragon weapon and people save claws to make level 2 and 3 weapons" nooooo some days I want to make my tank make photo with Lindvior/Fafurion cutter fragment, so pls no.

Freya's Scroll of Storm: im sure most of players have thousends of them me personaly i have 7000+ from crisis
Gran Kain's Miraculous Medicine : seriously if you get hit 50 mill this crap wont help and to pay for it its way to much
Scroll: Enchant Blessed Artifact Book /Scroll: Enchant Blessed Kaliel’s Bracelet / we get them from primewal island why we need pay for it ?
and the rest items we dont want to see in any of pay events :
Dark Weapon Enhancement Stone
Bloody Weapon Enhancement Stone
Sealed Talisman - Insanity
Sealed Talisman - Longing < seriously ?
Dragon Weapon Box (Fragment) anothrt nonsence ?
Superior Giant's Codex and other codex we can get from oly points
Talisman - Seven Signs /Emperor's Vitality Tonic/ Freya's Ice Rose to many useless items give Briliant rose instead.
sorry i have only 1 point: some items you mentioned we need a lot as dark/bloody armor/weapon stones and all codexes. But we need it inside the game as rewards to quests, daily quests, drops etc. Especially playing olympiad for 1 master codex 11-20lvl on 1 toon is 1 year approximantly. Is nonsense. Also stones come only from events. I understand your points that these items should be exluded from hard paying events, but we all good know that this item only lowering chances for better drop because theirs 99% probability.

If he went the F2P mode, he might be 107 with some help, without help, he might be 106 only maximum.
I started at the same time a sorcerer and it is running 106 by now from charity IT, coal mines on a daily basis, others are impossible to do solo. It is a disgrace to play in Beleth Magic Circle & Desert Quarry with the Exalted Set without Dragon Weapon. No one can call this normal game play.
Even 3 DK or dual 3x dreadnoughts 105 in Desert Quarry is actually so funny to watch that I logged them out after reaching 105/105.
When you reach 105, with 40m Adena, you can logout, because you cannot afford Rune Stone for your skills or have bare minimum to keep your Spirit Ore & Soul Ore running.
-----
Bare minimum: Angel Ring+6, Angel Earring+6, Angel Necklace+6, Atlas+12, Blessed Exalted Set+10, Bloody weapon+12, forgotten+11, Greater Kaliel+5, Greater Book+5, Brooch 5, artifacts+3. This is the bare minimum we need to start playing "decent" until 110.
So you need to pull out 1000 bucks to start playing and each level you gain, you do 1.5x the amount of real money in order to upgrade through the levels.
105-110: 1000e
110-111: 1500e (1000 x 1.5)
111-112: 2250e (1500 x 1.5)
...
119-120: +-50.000e
Taken in consideration the item in euro conversation, I am not too far away from reality. This also includes buying Prestige & Destiny Pack & Stones for Hunting zones.
Running the math on my own character, resale it would be 30.000e + (3 year of IOS passes = 70x60 = 4200 Ncoin = 50e x 36 month = 1800e ) + Prestige (15e x 36 month = 540e) + Destiny (2400 Ncoin x 36 = 30e x 36 = 1080e)
30.000e + 1800e + 540e + 1080e = 33.420e + 2000e x 3 Forgotten skills+30 = 35.420e + 2000e x 3 Forgotten skills+30 (because we need them on damn dual) = 37.420e
Let´s not forget Collections! Another 2000-3000e to fill it up minimum.
Total: 40.000e to reach 120 at least if you keep opening boxes on a regular basis, while trading and reselling to gear up your toon.
So if you want to actually remain F2P after that, it is possible while playing decently afterwards and living from IOS passes from players & only buying Prestige + Destiny Pack, but they will screw you over after the next update again
Nicely said. You must also pointed that these prices are minimum or near average amount of spended euros And for what? For new gear that you moving from lower location to a little higher location, nothing else I am tank (is onother story) but with dual yul 112 now i should have more fun as making 24/7 crisis, primeval isle, Castilia, 105 dailies because i not have damage to do 110 dailies, or going IOS to make reasonable profit or else. NCsoft assets that if we want play boring game we must use euros to buy gear is pathetic. Many people rather buy singleplayer game for 50-100euros per months with fresh, funny content as spending time in this desperate game.
Welcome @Wissp
yes better if you feel the game yourself You can also read forum for plenty advises for old and new players. I didnt count the forum threats that stay without any response.
I personaly resignated months ago to point how the game should be and could be improved. The whole concept 6 or 7 years ago was destroyed. Gap between none spenders and heavy spenders is gigantic. Events only cash people with gambling staff. We lack basic regular items in game, adena drop,items drop, skill codexes, crystal of dawn, artefact fragments, splendor fragments, rune stones, god jewelery materials, agathions. Homuculous is now 1 big joke to breed TOP one. We are undergear to survive in location that are mentioned for certain level and we are forced go lower. Party exping need improvment, not only party XP bonus, especially for support need. Enchants, compound chances low, augumentation with plenty trash options, expensive augument stones. Consumptions of spirit and soulstones is obsolete, also using shots= change equasion and delete it from game. Dragon boss missing. And plenty more things. If want ask the comunity. And what is important this game is only grind for level up in afk mode. The fun is missing, RPG or MMORPG part is lost. Is said that other companies can make better attitude to improve their old games or can be inspired by new games but NCSoft no.
I recommend, make new Forum room like Feedback to NCSoft or something like that where you informing us what you discuss with dev
Also I recommend to make in game calendar and forum calendar with events schedule for whole years, all will be happy to know when the Red Libra will be and stop spam forum.
I wish you good start
15 Hero coins for crystal of determination and protection? You losed your mind completly. Max 1 hero coin. @Juji
We also waiting for complete Hero shop update.
I think the Nightmare coin event is a TEST of players. Its about community feeling how much we can still paying.
I don't wonder how they spit in our faces again. Same model again again and again. Prices not reflect on our complaints and feedback. Plerase lesten us and server will be happy and healthy.
Nightmarket coin cash event as result of this topic? With these prices? Again slap to our faces!!! For 720 NCcoins we should take 500 or 1000 nightmarket coins. @Arctic @Juji
Its seem you not discuss with Korea what they sending us and for how prices.
Ruby lvl 5 14400 NCcoins, red cat lvl 5 cca 30 000 Nccoins etc. With this prices the market and economy never be healthier.
Shame
I agree with all said.
Majority of community is not ready for changes that come with all new updates. Simply we miss lot gear to be competitive.
I not want to repeat what was said, but have some points. Lack of dmg comes with lack of gear, but also how about basic skills? How many 110-115 players have all basic skills enchanted to +20? You made codexes rare and expensive, nonsense. Also homunculus, is not a big help but it is and you again made it difficult. Top homunculuss born is rare now as dinosaurus. We also lack several items needed to made better gears such as artifact fragments. You intorduce new artifacts that are made by 5x300 fragments artifacts. What the hell is it? After 8 years I have not even 1x 300. If fragments occurs, prices are high.
I am tank, i have also problem even with heal survive after update. Without rose is problematic. Also tanks are forgotten. We need more abilities to survive and to keep party alive. UD are joke, specially on olympiad and PvP. Defensive items missing or are super expensive. Still I miss option to change old R99 shield to R110 same way as armors. Also we need our cubics to be toggle skills.
Game lost fun part, only same boring grind. RPG part missing. Events should be more fun. Why you not invest a little money and made thematic event quests or story lines. Not only go kill boss or collect items by grinding.
I agree hero coins need deep change. Also prestige packs with useless Freya vital rune. With rune or without vitality drop in speed of light.
Also ranking system, give more bonusses for everyone.
Daily quest chest reward shoul be upgraded. So poor adena for major time and no proper drops is pathetic.
now we see that TOP bleep chance is only 0.1%. @Jujithis is realy joke.
in grocery is Tersi soul, but crystals will be in events and some rumors told that dropping in TOI
this game was always party game not solo game. SO make party or cash more to made more dmg in solo mod.
yes we need 5 artifact each for 300 fragments to exchange for +11% damage. Nice joke. We not have regular income of fragments, I have no one 300 fragments artifact until now. Only source is cash event but in this event fragments drop only few, prices high. @Juji if you must put artifact fragments in event only pls sell packeges of 100pc or increase radicaly drop rates, but better friendly choice is have this fragments as rewards in dailies.
every buffs should be free, we paying nonsense prices for everything else!!
55 minutes ago, Juji said:We had a discussion with the Dev team about a Dragon Weapon Exchange several years ago when there were many Dragon Weapon Fragments on the market. They did not want to add any DW exchange functions to the Red Libra event or any other systems at the time. Their stance may change someday in Korea if the local development team decides to add the exchange as they sometimes have differing opinions from our development team. For now, we will not have a Dragon Weapon Exchange for the Red Libra event at this time.
Partially good choice but now is different situation and years running forward. I have not DW weapon but i can imagine in near future that mayby fragments could be changable and also same type of DW can be change to same type but different dragon origin (Antharas buster to Valakas Buster etc.) These changes will make not so huge differences in game but help people occasauly. You can tell dev team as suggestion.
We want see combination chance and also we want reasonable price compared to failing @Juji
But still is shame on NCSoft that this is only event/promotion.

- Higher-level characters receive greater bonus.
What does it mean ? more dmg for white dmg and magic skill? or something else ?
Leveling your char will increase normal atack and magic skill damage. For exaple if you are 110 lvl and do 10 000 dmg , when you reach 111 lvl dmg increase in basic.
This update will bring no shortage of changes and new content to the Live Server as well. A short list of the most prominent updates includes:
New key items will be brought to the game including the Fallen Angel’s Earring and Tersi’s Soul Crystal for enhancing R-grade armor.
Expect a few changes to class skills as a part of this update including:

yes because this have Korea as 18. unniversary promotion update. Only cosmetic changes. We still waiting for proper big changes. We still miss several changes that were released now 2 years ago but NCSoft realised that we not need it Every Live update we got only part of chages frome whole set in Korea.
i forgott
6. Shields and sigils R grade should be posible to change to R110 similar way as armor and weapons with reasonable resources. Enchant level drop by 1 similar as with armors.
7. reduce plenty waste augument posibbilities on every stage and every type of augumentation. 100+ augument options is nonsense
@Juji @EMpulse @Arctic The community still waiting for your response who is responsible for controlling ROC in game and who have authority make a proper action against violation. Now we know that Support team is not authorised!!!!! Don't stick your head in the sand it's a serious thing and players deserve answers immediately.
Hi
here I want adress you some changes that are needed in current game situation. Some basic mechanics in game that should be common and easie achieving are now non-logicly hard or need very long time or high investment @Juji @Arctic
1. basic skill enchanting with codexes. Enchanting of the skills is basic part of the game, but current version of game made it difficult. Only one in game source of codexes is Olympiad and very rare in some events but pure for NCcoins. It not have logic made this general task so unique. Codexes from oly are expensive in comparison with time you must spend. Most people make on OLY 1000-1300 oly marks. per month If I take example of master codex lvl 11-20 that cost 10000 marks, we need w8 8-10 month for 1 codex that failed when used mostly. Therefore people who play OLY on several toons selling this codex for several bilions. Is not acceptable have such a thing so rare. Is basic thinks in game. We should have all type of codex as daily rewards, we should carfting it with 100% chance. And % of succes must increse because failing skill on lvl 5 with 80% chance several times is non sence. Or fix skill level progres with master codex only and better with SP only as was before some years(no codexes).
2. Homunculus. After introducing a new types of homunculus, chances to born TOP homunculous are ZERO. Homunculous are also not very importatant things but is dissapointing spend time and vitality and not have chance to born TOP. I try it 100+ times and TOP were zero times. This system must be revamp. The chance for water and TOP must increase 10x and more. Also hourglasses can be more often.
3. Artifact. In game missing artifacts fragments. You made it pretty expensive in events. Collecting 300 for 1 artifact cost as hell now.
4. Daily instance reward. In general must be changed. 1,2 or 3 milions adena is pathetic. We need more echants, codexes, augument stones, artifact fragments, smelting stones, fragment of slpendor etc...
5. Dimensional warp instance will be nice as new daily with interesting Q. At least the IMP mob should be spawm regularry on every 6 floor and have decent chances to drop his items.
The Disconnect's begun on NAIA server!!
