  1. Great take at start, terrible execution. Most of the people that are continously coming back are the ones that are playing since 1.x days. We all know that classic was much better than this with better drops. And I think your memory is slipping, the OG server in 2.x days was much easier in terms of farming, with higher drop rate. I remember farming attack +5 stones from regular mobs, who would drop 1 stone every 30 or so mobs. Also, you are wrong regarding the socket rate for green and white. In classic, the rates are definitely lower for higher demand stones (Attack +5s, Green MBs, MAs, Crits and etc). If it took me 160 tries to socket attack 5s into a piece of gear (6 sockets), and about 100 stones stones to socket 2 full sets (60 sockets) using parrys, the odds are way off. Korean games have been notorious for adjusting enchantment rates for things that are in higher demand to lower rate. Simply google Maple Story and Nexon's RNG Integrity rates and see for yourself. NCsofts lawsuit history itself is not pretty either.
  2. And people are complaining about Amazon... Spoiled brats
  3. Here is the interesting part though, white stones for me always go in very easily. Usually 2-3 tries to fully socket a gold piece. Though, some green stones that are less in demand have a very high success rate. I've socketed a full 50e set with green parrys before, with about 60 stones in total (no joke, did it 2 times on another toon). While with Attack/Crit stones, thats a whole another story. The most I have spent was 160 stones on 1 piece of a gear. To socket the full set, solid 100-200 stones on average. MB stones have the same issues.
  4. There is RNG Integrity Law that was passed in KR 2 years ago due to a massive lawsuit against another company for lying about enchantment rate, which is the reason why we see the enchantment rate while socketing/enchanting. Though, U.S. does not have that law, so I do wonder whether this still stands or it was altered when passing on to us.
  5. To add to this, if you are a new player, look elsewhere. You'll just waste your time being frustrated in the end when you realize you gotta grind 6 months for top gear while there are no enchantment/manastones. I would say wait for Throne and Liberty. With Amazon publishing the game there is definitely a better chance of it being successfull than NCWest doing it.
  6. I've been seeing more and more new players coming into this game, and it sucks that they are coming into this. Honestly, the main reason why everyone has not quit yet is the investment that people already put into the game. When everything works, this game is fantastic for a 15 year old game. Some could say nastalgia, but the community is what keeps the people together usually. Some of the players here I've known for 12 years. Mechanically, this is the best pvp game I have personally played; with Lost Ark coming in second. PVE was also ahead of its time mechanically. The end game here is fairly well done if you like PvP. NCSoft developers are 10/10 when making games, but what drags the games down is the marketing by NCSoft that does not attract the western market. THey never tried understanding this market, which is the reason why it fails over and over again. NCWest is the publisher but after reading the glassdoor reviews, they don't have any power in game/marketing making decisions. So if you like PvP, this is definitely the game to go to. Though it is a big learning curve since most of the players here have been playing for 10+ years who know every class's mechanics.
  7. Reading the forums and discords, this is the worst I have seen it ever been in the last 13 years. I've never seen people this pissed before
  8. I am done, goodbye. You are again doing what you usually do, sweep it under the rug hoping it would go away.
  9. FIIIIIX THE DROPRATE MAN. You are sweeping it under the rug again, fix it to how it was before 2.5. Ecomony is garbage
  10. Hello NCSoft team, Please understand that due to the changes in 2.5, what we are paying for is not what is being advertised. Kinah Drops: 150% - still not fixed after 2 weeks. The economy is going downhill again with enchantment and manastones prices through the roof due to shortages. 2 weeks worth of siels aura without this feature. Abyss Point Acquisition (relics) - addressed today by your team, however, we had 2 weeks worth of siels aura that we paid for without this feature. Due to the false advertisement, we expect some kind of reimbustment of giving us back the 2 weeks of siels aura (3 weeks next week), or additional relics/plat medals just like you did with the previous compensation. We are paying you for something you are advertising. I came back to this game due to this advertisement, I will leave again (among many others) if this gets swept under the rug. Again. Thank you.
  11. Hello NC team, I have to admit, this is the first time in a LONG time I have seen NCWest communicate on thier mistakes. Usually it gets swept under the rug just like you guys did with the forts reset a month or so ago. Even though it was a big mistake, the type of communication AND compensation that we received yesterday is what we want from your team when things like that happen. The fact that you communicated on the Item drop issue the following day of the patch rollout is very impressive. Usually it takes months for any type of communication when it first gets brought to light. Now we need some type of communication on the Relic Turnin adjustment issue. You put yourself in a bad light when nothing is communicated, but when communincation happens, we do appreciate it.
  12. Again, communication is awful. When is 2.5? Don't give us a week of heads up like you did with 2.4.
