Therealzikel Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 (edited) It's time to come clean with the drop rates for mobs and instances. We have gone 10+ years guessing and playing the RNG hopeful runs for good drops. You setup events with 50-100% droprate increases, but we don't know if that an increase of a 0.005 variable or a 0.05 to 0.5 drop rate. COME CLEAN. Make it transparent and known just like how are able to now know what enchantment stones success rate are. After you have come clean with the actual real number drop rate figures, the community will then decide whether or not we should continue spending our hard earned money into this game. Thanks.!!!

Cyfur Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Who cares? Everyone experiences the same difficulty. Just because some want an easy ride and do little work The game is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If an item has a 0,0001% chance to drop, spending real money to double that seems wasteful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you are right, he mentioned events but also mentioned dropping money, so I assumed he meant drop rate BCM things. Anyways, drop rates are what they are.

Shirene-DN Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 What makes you think this server will still be alive 3-4 weeks post EU launch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes you think EU classic won't be ruined in pretty much the exact same way every version was ruined by every publisher, /joking. I am really curious to see if they learned anything from the classic NA p2w mistake. Having tenths of thousands of pre-subs and then losing 90% of them within the first 2 weeks of launch has a pretty nice lesson to be learnt. I feel that the classic nostalgia wave is already watered down by NA's version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormwing Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 (edited) @Shirene-DN: The NA playerbase. @Arhangelos: Also the huge delay and the fact they are not really getting the actual classic the other regions got, does/did not really help. Right now, the hype about EU is pretty unjustified. If they really required two years to fix a launcher, the expectations can not be that high.

Right now, the hype about EU is pretty unjustified. If they really required two years to fix a launcher, the expectations can not be that high. Can't fix the launcher is strange given the fact there are already other regions with Classic for years, so if there were any issue those guinea pig areas already must have addressed them for EU not to have to. Aion seems like the USA moon landing, they did it with a potato capsule that somehow worked and then they never went back because they "forgot how to do it" (literally their words). I am from Europe and left Aion EU when they gave it to GF, since Aion classic is under the same publishing rights of GF (same game to retail, just different patch) I would never even set foot there. I already didn't care about NA Classic, tried it, hated it and I am good with the retail however awful it might be.

Cyfur Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 I see the Aion Classic 2.4 Patch Notes have been posted. Anyone know if there is a way to convert Sapphire Medals to Platinum Medals in 2.5? Seems like an obvious thing people would want to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can already do through the consumable vendor in the Gelk/Ing main fort. 3 Sapphire Medals = 1 Platinum Medal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I thought it was the other way around when I looked. You could buy 3 x Sapphire Medals, if you had 1 Platinum Medal to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormwing Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 @Cyfur: You are correct. Only Platinum to Sapphire currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
