Just to let you'r team know, the guy who made up the price for the 50/50 Black friday box, didn't took into consideration the "BLACK FRIDAY" which is supposed to be GREAT deals, all items from dim merchant ARE minimum 2x above the Current market price for the items ingame.
An exemple, in chronos 1 ncoin is 15Milion, it means you need 32 Ncoin for 1 black friday coin (50% chance),so 320 ncoin for 1 Crystal of dawn!! it means almost 5 bilion, ( current market price is 2 bilion) and so goes on with the rest of the list of items. Its not Realistic at all and it will be a big Fail in term of SALES. knowing that u guys sold cry of dawn in past on store for way cheaper, the game gets old and many are quitting, and yet no one has the opportunity to grow up and get better to have a better gameplay.
It's really sad and disapointing, i gave up and play 3 hours a week because the game is boring, even though i got the gear there's no activity.
This pretty much sums it up but hey at least the free event is decent
and really who comes up with those prices ? below item translates to 630bil on chronos server lmao
let's add an xp event to that
I don't support the current status quo or the way NCWest staff has been handling things as it's been very clear they do not have our best interest at heart
it's more that yes they failed us but Korea failed us even more.. hope that makes better sense of what I was trying to say or as Mr T says
6 minutes ago, Mete said:yes of course I am, so you 're saying, Korea export decided that NA should be their only export territory without an Einhasad store because ...
cause for the moment NA laws still allows them to get away with their current expensive loot box business model which they can't in Europe / China or Japan and yes that's Korean driven as it was only changed in the other export regions after laws changed
but hey if u prefer to put all the blame purely on their local fall guy Juji then don't let me stop ya as which ever way the cookie crumbles the end result is still clear which is that this game has become way to expensive to justify for the "gaming joy" it gives back in return
btw NC Soft Korea actually admits to all this when they got confronted about their loot box practices during their Lineage W launch
ur aware Innova isn't part of NC Soft right ?
11 hours ago, Lego said:It's very simple actually, NC West is a business, they don't really care about what community says, they speak in numbers, if numbers increasing all good. Clearly a signs that NcWest has this problem for years: numbers going down, player numbers decreasing etc.. encouraging players to make RMT rather then spending in L2 store for a 0.000001% chance of getting something valuable. A lot of players that have invested an significant amount of $ in the game realized that it's better to buy adena from X and buy the item required rather then investing in L2 store/events and have an nonexistent chance on getting the item required. Therefore the $ of the company will decrease as events are not encouraging players to play anymore. So NcWest have 2 options :
1. Encourage players to play events by increasing the change of getting something valuable during events (clearly not an option right @Juji?)
2. Concentrate on statistics and based that x,y,x will invest at least 10k $ in this event making the income of NcWest survive.
Obviously this will not carry on for long, as server dying slowly due to multiple reasons, game mechanics, cheats, RMT, "friendly" GM'S etc.
So yes it's fair to increase prices of items in event, despite this being an unfair treatment to players.
Management of NcWest needs changing ....
agree with all except the last bit as there u assume ncwest has any say in things.. change it to korean export team need to change their milk the cash cow till it's dead attitude

change augments & skill oe to focus
atm +12 weapons are nothing special so yeah no reason not to.. it's not like we're talking about gran kain ewr or shiny gran kain ewr here
also @Juji korea started a program to track all spendings per account with extra benefits for the big spenders which is something u can easily verify yourself in their weekly patch notes and as such it's better if ppl spend the ncoins on their main accounts and not on alts just to get hewr etc having the future changes in mind
korean players spend on avg more then 500$ per week in l2 so are you really going to compare with them ?
@Juji @Sunshine how come you don't share the same information NC Japan does ? This is causing unnecessary support tickets and confusion amongst your yul player base.

this change was implemented to all export regions, something that was confirmed by EU/RU as well by many players on NCWest by making simple tests
1 hour ago, blajo05 said:Hi folks,
sadly to me, it seems very difficult to prove the nerfing of Quick shot & Pinpoint shot in a short video, which the GMs requested, in order to show to the developers...
It is obvious that Pinpoint shot speed is lower, as well as both skills' P. skill critical rate, which seems very irregular. The other attack skills of my Moonlight Yul have more constant and regular P skill critical rate.
either your post is a troll or NC Support is trolling you as NC Japan requested those nerfs and was approved for roll out to all export regions by Korean Export team - this was announced on NC Japan website and even confirmed by EU/RU Innova staff so lmao
for the conspiracy lovers here I would like to point out that the current store prices set buy nc soft and the existing huge adena inflation issue has only made ncoin adena value go up and made adena per 1b drop to 0.7$ while pushing all decent items to the grey market of pure rmt as we're locked to a fail 999bil adena max limit
it's a cycle in which nc soft actually looses cause they push more & more players out of the game or to the shady world of rmt and either is just plain bad
and in the mean time on chronos 2 randoms got 2 and 3 cursed sword weapons but yeah those opened 2.5k boxes
it's meh.. adena has become meaningless and nc keeps dumb 2x to high prices for their l2store/sales promo's which only makes the inflation & lack of items issue worse
the is game is for the handful whales left throwing thousands per promo down the toilet
for casual players it's not worth it but it does remains one of the cheapest best buck for bang boosts u can buy for 15$ in this game
if that's to expensive/rich for your blood this game is really not for you if I may say so
also without drop runes and prestige you can forget making any meaningful adena ingame by yourself
@Juji this Spirit Potion damage boost is nothing close to the deleted cookie and it's xp boost aspect is meaningless outside xp server settings so why or who had the brilliant idea to make it time limited ? tell me why we should buy it ? if there is 100% sure a server xp settings event incl. vitality & party bonus ample within it's limited time setting (at least 2 weeks) then please share that with us as else it's just not worth the money spend.
the issue lies with the gambling laws in USA that allows this, in Korea and Japan things got changed after regulations forced them to comply
did you know that in Japan by law if you gamble loot boxes every X amount of boxes is required to give u 1 of the top rewards ?
all other regions has einhassad store which allows for unlimited access to certain items, basic ones and event types which means prices are way more stable & reasonable as a price cap exist
now imagine the same here

The patch notes and in-game help sections for the new zone had incorrect information as there were some last minute changes received from the Development Team. We will address it shortly on the website and will request for changes to the Help sections in-game to be updated with the correct details. Apologies for the inconvenience!
as warned several times before those times do NOT work for Europe players so enjoy having excluded more then 50% of your playing & paying player base
tell Korea Great Success!!
it's funny how ppl notice this nerf from nc japan almost right away but not the 10% ios adena reduction
btw nc japan did announce these changes so no idea why ncwest doesn't, maybe korea forgot to forward the memo
oh and a lil heads up but the nc japan producer has announced more yul nerfs will come later
@Juji @Sunshine there's still the old bug with Wings of Splendor that the color of the name & wings are wrong at stage 6 & 7 - those got mixed up

Fyi the Black Friday Mammogeddon Pack are the normal talismans and NOT the Advanced versions so useless trash and not worth any NCoin let alone 1200
Do Not Buy - you have been warned!
