TL;DR? CTRL-F and put this in the search bar: [Hello] But I would appreciate it if you read the explanation.
hi guize, dis is concerning the Castle Red Boxes and Poison Bottle Tickets. ^_^
As this update (i r link click me) says, the Yggdrasil Red Box from before has changed to a Castle Red Box, which, from 12 Yggdrasil Berry Tickets dropped, got improved to "10 of Yggdrasil Seed, Yggdrasil Berry, and Poison Bottle Tickets."
Now, that's a good thing. First issue is the Castle Red Box drops 12 of each of those tickets, contrary to what is said in the update. Yes, 12. Now you would think "tat gud men, moer 4 evri1!!!!1" Yes, it IS good, you can give more to your guildies (or for yourself, in case of solo breakers.) But I'd prefer if it stuck with the update of 10 each. There's a reason why the number is limited.
K next. We asked for it, and we got it. Poison Bottle Tickets. It's rly sxc, especially when you run a big guild with a lot of Assassin Crosses, you can supply them will ALL the bottles they need! I like it. But I think the boxes drop too much. I don't know how many berries you can use per minute, but I know it's a lot. Like, a LOT. How many Poison Bottles do you use in a minute? One. 1) It doesn't really get dispelled. 2) Even if you die, it's still there.
So how does this sum up. A lot of Poison Bottles are flooding the market (and storages) and thus, ruined the actually very decent market for Poison Bottles. Before the advent of these tickets, both methods of getting Poison Bottles were relatively easy, but tedious. One was farming up at lhz_dun03. One map, lots of competition. Though the rewards were good. 2 Donation Coupons is to 1 Poison Bottle Ticket. Sexy. The other was farming for the ingredients themselves. Not much competition, but more tedious than the first one. Still sexy.
I'm not saying we can bring it back to the way it was before. It's almost impossible, if not totally so. Leaders of the biggest guilds can give out PB Tickets and still have thousands in their inventory. Even when I got a castle for 3 days, I got like 200 PB Tickets. It would last me a very very long time. Did I deserve PB Tickets? Yes. Did I deserve that much? I don't think so!
Assassin Crosses are the most used character for PvP. I only think it's fair for poorer people to make money off the fact that they use supposedly, one of the less prevalent items in a normal server, which is, Poison Bottles. Granted, before it was easy to get PBs. But now it's like a freebie, at 1 ticket per coupon, sometimes 2 tickets per coupon, or if guild leaders really gave them all out, almost free.
[Hello] Enough explanation, more to the suggestion.
Make it 15 Seed, 10 Berry, and 5 PB. IMO 5 is still a lot though. Maybe 3. I'm not sure about Seed Tickets.
On a side note, Seeds are actually useful too, I wish they were easier to get, and the weight be like 20 or 25, just a little lower than Yggs, not a lot like half. There should be some place like F.Dun where some mobs drop them. I really don't know if leaders give Seed Tickets out, but meh. That's for another time.
Kdone, discuss? Flame? Hi!
