PattyAnn Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 Hi all, I'm a new player and I've experienced through making quests, MVP hunting, PVP and many other situations and as a new player I recommend these things: * When you kill a monster and the items are drop don't make it like 5 seconds and they will be gone, you don't know how many cards I've lost because I forget to autoloot or im alootid and its annoying. * Turn PVP Off for MVP/Mini Boss or Zenny Hunting Maps, I've experienced I'm getting items to get zenny or killing mvps and someone comes (because has donations and I don't and kill me, I've missed like more over 10 MVPs that way, thank you "pro" ones wish we all be newbie with no items so we can do the same to each other). *Get @mobsearch, @refresh and improve @alootid (Make it loot until 20 or 10 items), that could be really useful. * Have Support Players or at least GMs who really are ONLINE, I've had many questions and no one can answer me even if I broadcast they all mean say nothing and GMs ALWAYS AFK, seriously... What! *MVP Biolab, I've killed like over 10 HP, 6 Sniper and only 1 LK, its almost always HP or Sniper... (I've played for almost 2 weeks). *MVP Room - I read the NPC Information said: weekdays card drop is 70% and I killed 4 kiels last time and got nothing, I could've saved my zenny! and why only Room 2 & 5 open? What about 1,3 and 4! *There should be donation quests too! Or you really expect all to donate? I can't do that :/ *Improve some drop % like Lost Dragon (for Hero Remains) and Treasure Box. it's the only way to get zenny and many people are there so 50% is kind of tricky sometimes :( Guess that's all I think could be very good for the server, I'm just saying due to I've played many servers and could be nice and get higher ranking with that. Thanks for reading, hope you can do something about what I said. Goodbye :3
Kayla Minerre Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 (edited) 1. If they didn't have that depop rate, then there'd be shit littered all over the place. 2. Unfortunately, this is a PVP server. They turned pvp off for forsaken maps, but that's it. Otherwise, expect to be pvp'd or don't play on a pvp server. 3. @ii for items, @whereis for mob locations. I assume @mobsearch is to get the coords of an mvp. Why? So you can go directly to an mvp only to be killed by us pro players right off since they're already there? 4. I can get behind this one. 5. I'm pretty certain that's a random spawn. 6. Never used the mvp room, so I dunno. 7. You don't have to donate. Why don't you farm seeds/berries/zeny and buy tokens to get the donate items like the rest of the newbies that don't donate? 8. Farm Stone of Sage for zeny, not Treasure Box. It already has a higher drop rate. Edited October 10, 2013 by Kayla Minerre
Bishop Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 Hey there, firstly I'd like to welcome you to the server and I want to thank you for thinking along to possibly improve the server :) I'll now comment on each of your suggestions. * When you kill a monster and the items are drop don't make it like 5 seconds and they will be gone, you don't know how many cards I've lost because I forget to autoloot or im alootid and its annoying. I personally don't like it a lot if items lay on the ground for ages. With our current drop rate it's not that much of an issue if you forget your autoloot for one monster or one mob. I think an upgrade to alootid will also get rid of most of this problem. * Turn PVP Off for MVP/Mini Boss or Zenny Hunting Maps, I've experienced I'm getting items to get zenny or killing mvps and someone comes (because has donations and I don't and kill me, I've missed like more over 10 MVPs that way, thank you "pro" ones wish we all be newbie with no items so we can do the same to each other). I highly disagree with this, this is a PK server. Disabling PvP in all essential maps would make no sense. *Get @mobsearch, @refresh and improve @alootid (Make it loot until 20 or 10 items), that could be really useful. I believe Genesis is looking into the alootid upgrade. Upgrading the array to 10 to 20 items would be a bit overdone though. @refresh is abusable as far as I know and @mobsearch would kill the challenge of mvp hunting. It would also make camping mvps way too easy. I would prefer the gravestone system which means you can find a gravestone on the map if the mvp is dead and it'll (possibly)show the respawn time. * Have Support Players or at least GMs who really are ONLINE, I've had many questions and no one can answer me even if I broadcast they all mean say nothing and GMs ALWAYS AFK, seriously... What! I personally am not in-game a lot lately due to my fulltime job that I have for a few more months. However I am able to check the forums at work several times a day. So if you have any questions feel free to send me a PM here on the forums :) *MVP Biolab, I've killed like over 10 HP, 6 Sniper and only 1 LK, its almost always HP or Sniper... (I've played for almost 2 weeks). The spawn (which one spawns) is not altered on our server. *MVP Room - I read the NPC Information said: weekdays card drop is 70% and I killed 4 kiels last time and got nothing, I could've saved my zenny! and why only Room 2 & 5 open? What about 1,3 and 4! I'm not too sure about the 70%, I haven't checked the npc information myself, however if the other rooms are occupied it means someone else is inside of them. I'll check the rooms once I get home later today to see if they might've bugged out. I'll reset them manually if that's the case. *There should be donation quests too! Or you really expect all to donate? I can't do that :/ You can basically get donation items by hunting stuff. All donation items are tradeable so you can obtain them in-game by working for them. Making donation quests would render donating useless. *Improve some drop % like Lost Dragon (for Hero Remains) and Treasure Box. it's the only way to get zenny and many people are there so 50% is kind of tricky sometimes :( There are other means of zeny hunting as well, and I think the 50% drop rate is more than enough. It is a high rate, yes. But we don't want to make things too easy. 1
Shino Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 I am on the same boat with Bishop here, Due to work and school, I cannot always be in game, but I am always on the forums. Just pm us or if it needs to be in a ticket, just file one. The community is also great in our server, I am pretty sure a lot of them will help if you post a topic here. :)
Sensation Posted October 10, 2013 Report Posted October 10, 2013 I'm with Bishop too. The @alootid array up to 5 items would seem sufficient to me. About the MvP room, I think the drop chance in there is 1% (read it somewhere in the update section) as you can purchase the MvP at will (though restricted to a timer), which defeats the purpose of hunting, competition etc. That's why I that drop rate is justified. As for example Kiel, 75M is about 3 tokens, selling Kiel would yield approximately 80-90 tokens. You can try 25 times to get a card and still make profit. The story line quests provide with items that are better than default donations, however, having one of the donation items can be a requirement. These can be obtained by collecting enough tokens so you can trade them for the gears. Then there's also the Forsaken King set (no idea where the Forsaken Soldier and Forsaken MvP Soldier sets went, they were pretty nice too). Nothing is for donators only, everything can be obtained through trading, PvPing, GvG and/or WoE.
Halion Posted October 12, 2013 Report Posted October 12, 2013 (edited) you can just vote for forsaken set like i did, im a veteran but when i came back i had nothing so i voted alot and im fully geared now =D Edited October 12, 2013 by Halion
Veracity Posted March 26, 2014 Report Posted March 26, 2014 A lot of this has either been implemented or isn't relevant anymore, so moving this to reviewed.
