oh god decreasing the spawn rate in ROA would just make it even more of a nightmare for a newbie to get through the quests. Removing adena drop from there and giving usable items as rewards for part of the quest would be far better. Items that have no value in the NPC shop but useful for a newbie leveling would be ideal. As it is now the bots seem to delevel and then rock ROA over and over.

Thanks for your work GM.

Maybe  one thing..

From lvl 1 to 50 is there lots of quests. After that there is only one quest started at level 55. 

https://l2wiki.com/classic/A_Game_of_Cards

This quest is totaly stupid. I change 60 000 gems and all time I received 931 adena. In level 60+ this is stupid reward. There is no other quest. Previous quest i  dungeon I received bufs/boost xp/ewc/armor pack. This is great.

So its possible change reward for example randoom:

Ewb, EAB, B recipes, B Keys, xp boost, bufs, etc?

Thanks for reply and have a nice Day!

disagee with too much of this list to comment, its too much like a illegal server already

BUT, ROA theres a simple way to fix it, remove adena drops, done, end of

 

opening up rune, and heine, and making them the same mobs they allway where

60+ would have vally of saints and ice vally

70+fod swamp of screams?

80+stakarto(spelling?) nest mos, pagans, fields of silence

85+ open up hell bound, (hell I soloed there to 85 on old retail)

this would open up new areas with more chance of s grade gear dropping, 

everyone want S gear, all but the cas cows cant afford it, Pay to win only keeps people interested for a while

Thanks again for nothing:)

Still waiting on you to actually fix stuff you changed/broke without giving an explanation:

1.) Selling materials to grocer

2.) Being able to see debuffs on mobs

3.) Crafting system/Dwarfs

4.) Macro system still not working like it originally did before you removed it.

 

To keep telling us that "developers are listening to our ideas" is a straight up lie.

We all know the devs know about the boting in ROA and actually promote it (proof is in them not acting), they may have some sort of deal with them, this would make sense for them not to act as they should. So strop crying here won't, it won't help and accept that they won't do anything on that topic
