The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.

Thanks, I see it spawned now with 4 Dandy's balls.

I used to make around 360m a day solo before these last two patches. Then they increased the difficulty of mobs so I needed to start bringing an outside party healer, but was making 640m a day. Now they kept the difficulty of the mobs, but reduced the adena drops by half so I'm making around 320m a day, and I still need my outside party healer. This is with a 112 archer with fairly good gear (somewhere in the 1-2 trillion range). During this xp event I usually skip it since it doesn't even feel worth it unless NCSoft reboots the server and we have some downtime before we can reform the party.

@Juji where's the compensation for losing an hour of runes + wasting what's remaining of our pots since for many of us it'll be hours until the rest of the party members come back home from work so we can reform the party? Why do your screw-ups always end up hurting the players? What was so urgent about this patch that it had to be done outside of the regular patch window, with a 30 second in-game warning?

The last patch before awakening was the last time Summoners were a great class. Then 1-2 months after awakening, they started nerfing Wynns by reducing the # of summons and barely increasing the strength of the summons. Then a few years ago they nerfed the summons even more and turned them into a purely DoT class with a pet for transfer pain. Wynns haven't been summoners in a long time, and it doesn't look like that's planned to change anytime soon. Summoners (with summons doing the actual damage and the summoner buffing/healing) and Dominators (high mp cost steal essence, seals to debuff/kill in PBAoE, and soul guard / soul cry to go toe to toe with any opponent, but requiring long mp regen time between bursts) are two play styles that have been completely removed from this game.

Players: The game is too hard, please help! NCSoft: Ok, here's another nerf, you're welcome!

I had purchased 5600 ncoins and bought a few things (2 x 2400 rune packs + soulshots) with them before the rollback. Now the items are gone, and so are the ncoins. How long before this gets rectified?
