Flake of Blacklead use for next Winter Festival

aganwayaganway Member Posts: 269 Arc User
I'm making this suggestion purely for selfish motives. I grinded this Winter Festival and bought the Demon Sled quite early on, I now have collected another 204 flakes and can't use them for anything, the flakes are bound to character, you can't transfer them to alts using any method, and the only thing they buy you, the Demon Sled, is also bound to character and can't be transferred to other characters either, so the only two things I could do with them is buy another sled for myself (which is stupid, I have never ever deleted a mount by accident so don't need a spare) or keep the flakes to use later. I'm totally sure I'm not the only person in this position. So I am suggesting the idea of next year, rather than the possibility of having the same single sled for sale, that you add another mount to the list which we can then spend our flakes on. Even better would be a new version of the Demon Sled for variety plus a couple of other items. Hopefully we don't just keep accruing flakes and can do nothing with them, so something extra (even at a higher cost of flakes like 300 or 400 I dunno, something to help us offload our flakes) will be there for us as well as the sled from this year which those new people playing next Winter Festival will still want to get.

While I'm here, I am now sure that the Demon Sled has a graphic bug in it. I posted it in another thread saying I wasn't sure, but now I am having ridden around in it every day. When you summon it there is a heavy orange glow which lights up the ground around it, the inside of it and yourself, it looks extremely cool. It stays there when you start moving. Until that is you go over a bump or stop and start moving again, when it vanishes and the whole effect falls flat. The two ways to return this effect are to either un-mount and re-mount, or to change your outfit back and forth between fashion and armor. This cannot be intended, it stays there while you travel in it as long as you don't lift off the ground or stop, so it obviously was intended to stay put while you are travelling in it. Can this be fixed please?

    Frankly I would like to see almost all collected items sharable on the same account. I mean after the two free alts we paid Zen for these extra slots, let us share. Maybe we will buy more slots, more bank space, etc.

    You should note what your system specs are. This sounds like a graphics issue with your system maybe?

    That 'orange glow" should be flames shooting out of the sled...it's the best part of the mount, frankly. The flames and glowing embers on the sled make it one of my favorite mounts to use in the game. Very dramatic - and the audio that goes with the effect isn't too bad either.

    No, sorry. I'm running win10 64bit i7 processor 16GB ram and a brand new Nvidia RTX2070 which can run any game u throw at it on max settings. The glow I am talking about is not the flames coming out the back. When the sled is summoned there is an orange glow surrounding the sled on the ground when it is sitting still, the glow also is inside the sled and radiates upwards onto your avatar and lights it up, it has nothing to do with the flames when it is moving. To show you what I am talking about I will go and make a short video of it and how it stops when the sled moves or hits a bump and lifts off the ground.

    I know the glow you're talking about. I've seen it with both the Demon Sled and the Frozen Demon Sled. And on my computer it also comes and goes. I don't know whether it's a server or a client issue. It's possible it's sometimes one and sometimes the other because I've noticed that if the game develops a leak, all my graphical effects like that go away.

    Here u go, I forgot to show how when u jump over something or it goes over a bump it also does it, but the result is the same, and the glow is definitely there.
