Yeah sure, 3 *Promotions* announced, and an afk *event* that hasn't had any rewards updated in over 3 years or even the keys for the locked boxes reset in about as long.
Just amazing.

All Holiday Events will continue and I will update you if there are any other specific notes later. I hope everyone is having a wonderful Holiday!
Which Holiday Events are those, you mean the only one that is going on? Which you call a Festival of some sort, not feeling very festive.
QuoteMost of our team is on Holiday Break this week.
This week, you been on a holiday break for years, and always the convenient excuse as to why no actual work is being done, its always before, during or after some Holiday or Summer Break, or whatnot, when does work actually start, because its Easter soon too?

I guess a survey with a few trinkets is considered an event worthy of Christmas by the *new* management, i mean its an improvement over what we got for Halloween, which was a big pile of sh-nothing but yeah woohoo i guess, don't spoil us.
The Promotions/Sales seem to be going strong tho, the paywalling of 3-4 year old content just to keep milking the few remaining players continues, not only that but things that we used to be able to have a chance of getting for free once in a blue moon at astronomical chances we dont even get that anymore. What a joke of a company. @Roseae

Make sure and collect your Free Special Transformation Coin Daily Bundle for an additional 5 coins each day.
The "Daily" coin bundle doesnt seem to be daily, it still hasnt reset 2 days in. @Wissp

Yeah seriously, adjust the times, would be easier to change the coins to 1 every 30 minutes or 2 every hour, than making the tokens account tradeable. Forcing us to just stay on 1 char all day is really stupid. I doubt this time that you will ban the botters that run dozens of accounts at the same time so 6, 12 or 24 hours to get all wont make a difference to them, but would make a big one for the rest of us. @Wissp

Lets see how they implement it first, before the storwing tokens needed to upgrade the egg were in lugbug, so now they are either going to be given for being logged, or integrated into the daeva pass, and i wouldn't put it pass them to even paywall it behind the premium pass, which would really be a middle finger to all of us, especially since they still haven't UPDATED us on their PLANS on luna acquisition, let alone an actual solution to a now six months issue.

In the coming weeks and months, you can expect increased communication, regular updates, and a renewed focus on community engagement.
Still waiting on that btw, usually when you want to sell a rebranding you start strong with actually doing some work, building some good will, but NC "America" has reinvented the wheel again by not bothering to even put a minimum effort while asking people to give them an N-th chance. 2 weeks with this new CM without a single issue addressed and we are back to just maintenance notes once a week. This company is just beyond saving at this point.
Also you missed the part where Flower Bulbs event items are getting deleted tomorrow, but who cares right?

Its obvious why they have both, greed, they want the best of both worlds, have a subscription model without which the game is basically unplayable so everyone is forced to pay, but also have a "free to play" cop out so that they can claim that since the game is free they "need" the cash shop.
The more players let them move the line and get away with, the more they will get away with while moving the line, thats the lesson that seems really hard to learn for most people nowdays that seem more interested in taking sides against each other, instead of banding against the people screwing them.

So if the maintenance is on tuesday, it means that the update will happen before arena reset so it will change to the the new arena rewards instead of luna, if it is getting replaced indeed, which nobody from the company is even addressing. So not only they are removing luna, this "happy little accident" will rob us from our last chance to get any as well.
How hard is it to just come and confirm if the luna reward is getting replaced and the way to obtain in game abolished, or just say if it stays in tandem with the new Honorable Daeva’s Mark? @Roseae@Primali
0 -
Yeah, nothing shows confidence more than locking your thread and not wanting peoples feedback.
We are not looking forward for you continuing to provide anything, because its non existent.
That or we have vastly different understanding of what "the best possible gaming experience" should feel and look like. @Roseae

So still ignoring everyone i see:
1. Will Luna be removed as a reward in Arena of Discipline, your full details on the upcoming update seem to be vague on that saying the rewards are changed to Honorable Daeva’s Mark’?
2. Your full details on the upcoming update are still incorrect, they have Lumiel/Yustiel and their stats listed in there instead of the new lords Vaizel/Triniel.
3. Tower of Challenge is called Crucible in here, but i wouldn't expect NCSoft employees to bother even getting familiar with their game.
4. So another Pass thing on top of the other Pass thing, with 2000 Luna pricetag and 2-3 year old rewards never the less , while actively removing Luna from being obtainable in the game for free, this is the way?
5. I won't expect a replay, no one has been answering anything in here for months so whatever, i'll just vent out here.

Crazy to me how you punish people for playing your game. What goes on up there?
Its so pay to win to the point where free to play people can catch up by making up to 50 alt accounts to even keep up. 50! What other game forces you, as a free to play player, to create 50 accounts just so you can keep up? Now you're banning people for playing your game how you're forcing 75% of your population to play. What outcome were you hoping for? Server closure? If so, then this is one of the fastest ways to get there.
Same logic you used there could be applied to the currently discussed situation, but you seem to be on the opposite end here, solely based on the fact what benefits your factions, its what i'm implying. Very flexible these morals of yours.

We've thought about this but the reality of it is we wouldn't get any participation from the Asmos if we did. I've always said this and I'll keep saying it; Elyos are very fortunate because Asmos hate each other way too much. There was a point in time where Asmos had more gear, collections and better players and the only thing holding them back was their intense hate against each other which we took advantage of. The discussions eventually led up to "if x group shows up, we know y group will not come".
Asmos just need to stop taking things too personal and remember its just a game.
Yeah its just a game, until you and/or your friends get banned for abusing the stormwing event using hacks to log dozens of accounts to get blessed paragon stones, then its all personal and full of demands and threats, funny how that works Mr. Beast.

It takes maximum 6 months to get a random ultimate transform (Zikel or Nezekan) completely free from daeva pass + BCM ultimate breath of transformation.
Not really maximum, more like a minimum of 6 months and thats with the condition that you max the deava pass to level 45 every season, because only at last level you get the 50 ultimate shards, and for that you need to finish all dailies, weeklies and most of the seasonal. And yeah for you it might be easy to do a lot of the seasonal stuff, but for a new player with kerub gear it might be a tall order. And if you dont max the pass every seasons you get 30 shards, which makes your maximum of 6 months into more like a year. Not really picking a fight just giving a perspective, there could have been much easier ways to obtain Kaisinel at the least for a startup, like renown shards, EU has it in prestige shop for like 15000 prestige coins, which can be obtained a lot faster than 6 months, or even as a gift to new and returning players much like the lugbug boxes, seeing new players in ancient xforms 5 years into the update is really not a nice way to retain anyone. And thats not even the main problem, current patch made obtaining FS weapon from relic close to impossible for new players, either the farming takes too long with just 2 from dispatch a week and thats after leveling it to level 3, or its just too expensive to buy holy waters, and because the population is low and almost noone running HOA, there are barely any weapons being sold on broker, so hitting another wall for months/years. And if you tried doing apsa quests with kerub gear you know how that feels like, you cant even solo some of the mobs most of the time.

Yeah but the goal is different, they want to hook your credit card up and charge it automatically every month, like netflix and the other services, putting obstacles making it harder or just obscure enough that you cant easily cancel it, so that you just leave it and get charged regardless if you use it or not, if you can buy 30 day auras from broker they cant really get their claws on your payment information. Thats why its not brokerable, but its the level of "customer service and care" we have come to expect from this company.

Yeah these rewards are like 3 years too late.
Also another sale for the whales to get fatter on. Weekly reminder, don't give money to people that threat you with contempt and ignore your concerns, hit them where it hurts, don't buy anything as tempting as it may be.

All those niche ancient transformations meant for collections should at least be on BCM forever, if they are going to cost a lung to buy why make them limited time only.
Just add them in and let people buy them whenever they decide to. No matter the time you get them their purpose is only one -> collections.
The why is obvious, FOMO, after a year of holding things that give you a competitive advantage its a lot more likely for people to spend money and more of it when they finally put them up for sale for a limited time and with a random chance of getting it, than if its permanently offered. Don't you wonder why things would disappear from being obtainable in game, just to reappear as sales a few years later when people start needing them?
Really shows you what twisted mindset festers in these companies and another reminder why you shouldn't give money to people that treat you like this. I'm sure there will be a suspension reason found in this post too, so whatever.

I knew deep down inside that as soon as Beast's group went into the mostly inactive hub zone where nobody with gear hangs out, someone would revive this dead thread to use it as validation as to why "participate in content if you want rewards" is a bad take. The culture of taking literally any excuse to give up without trying is something my DNE days scarred me with.
Asmos be like "they tanked weak guards and killed fissure/splinter alts, we don't stand a chance"
Asmos be like "Kromede and BCM are top 1 and 2, we will protest by gearing the Elyos for free"
Mark my words, asmos are gonna be like "we're not participating until they un-ban Shotbot" too (if they haven't already).But since we're out here kek-ing, let's go over the recent stream/incident which I assume inspired your contribution @Rahvan-KT.
1. The guards are weak. Very weak. Their only danger is the stun, and even then the Elyos attacking Gelk Fort were resetting the guards periodically by stacking in a certain spot which gave them cover from Asmodians and NPCs alike.
2. Despite this, they literally died anyway. The idea that these people just flattened your fort and left unscathed is just more anti-effort myth-building. They wiped over and over. Maybe a couple survived by retreating, but there was a lot of dying done on their part. They just kept coming back for fun.
3. The fact that there is no reason for a geared player to be in Gelk Fort means there'll be a sample bias when it comes to which asmos are there when they attack; it gives the illusion of imbalance. Just run into Ingg fort yourself, you'll feel like a god stomping out all those alts and randoms.
It's literally so easy to bulldoze past guards in these cities because there are seldom geared attentive players just waiting around to defend, and most guards can be kited. Give yourself 1 support player and you can run circles around both zones. I was literally doing this in significantly less gear than exists now back nearly two years ago:
a
All of this is to say nothing of the fact that after this thread blew up, the Asmos saw an uptick in activity which immediately resulted in the first Agent wins of the season for Asmos, and some boss wins with some close calls too.
It's just an absurd epic own to say "your point is dumb because people can tank weak guards which were designed to be moderately discouraging to people wearing gear from four gear metas/three years ago."
Again with the strawman arguments, by your own definition, if the 50 guards are weak, this makes the 30 or more asmos weak as well for being incapable of killing not even a full group of elyos that aren't even transformed or is it again due to "not trying hard enough", how do you try hard enough to kill someone, when you die literally instantly?
So you give an example of 1 occasion where we actually killed an agent/ardath/whatever(1 out of 1000s at this point) and project it as some sort of proof against the claim that we can't actually compete, while if fact it was just 1 example of elyos no caring enough to do something after months of getting it daily and it happening at a time where no one really cared to do it. You are either willfully unaware of the actual power/number imbalance or you are intentionally gaslighting or straight up trolling at this point.

Ah yes, the old "you are not trying hard enough" argument when you have at least twice the numbers and several times the geared people core, the problem with that is when you cut off the main content of the game for years people don't tend to stick around and just pick their nose, they leave, so if you don't "even" have enough dps now, you can imagine that ours is even less.
But sure, lets go with you dont deserve to win, because you are not being cannon fodder for our whales enough. Heres a hint, why don't you reroll asmo, and "just try", and see how it goes for you?

In fact I have 2 gaming PC's and I would be inclined now to uninstall AION from one of them and reinstall just to setup an Asmo account to come and help you guys disrupt these elyos legions when they are running Ardeth boss. As it stands right now though there are a BUNCH of elyos people that would not come to help defend these greedy legions from asmos if they get attacked now including me. If I see some effort on the Asmo side to start taking or at least pvp the elyos during Ardeth I will invest and purchase a full set of Paragon gear for my asmo and fully gear it to help you defeat them. My elyos main is currently a Great General but that could just as easily be an ASMO and many of my friends might do this also. I'll be watching because I really do want to be able to participate in everything and if I can't do it because the Elyos are too greedy here on my side then I will switch sides to asmo where I can do everything. I will be watching you all during Ardeth to see what happens, but will never again come to the aid or help the greedy elyos legions who are counter productive and discriminate against players to their own faction.
How can we try, when a group(you know which group im talking about) of 5-6 people can stand at the door and wipe 50 of us, like we havent tried, thats what +10 Paragon does, its what 10000(0)s of $ do, you cant compete with that, and when you have a-holes doing it that get off by making everybodys life miserable because they "can afford it" and because they think they are entitled to do it "because they are paying the bills" you get to here, they ruined Danaria server in the same way, they are doing it to Katalam now too.
Its the same story with Ardath, with Agent, with World Bosses, with Altars, with Sieges, but thats what makes the company short therm money i guess, until it doesnt and they move to the next thing to cannibalize.

So someone took the time to update the survey issue, but totally ignored what everyone is asking about, and its a simple question -
Is the snowball event ending tomorrow/today (Yes/No/
Cancel)? @EMpulseAmazing community management there, your are just digging a new low every single time.

"Great" combination event you have there, you need 3 times 6 legendary combinations meaning 18 legendary duplicates to qualify, or 5x6, 30 legendary for the 6 types box.
The thing is that people that have such amounts of duplicates have these ultimates already , so you have managed to once again make an event that excludes the majority of the population.
