Ok guys, just a heads up.

As many of you have noticed, hyper stone is exchangeable with Luck Tokens now, 8 for 1. When this happened on the Chinese servers a couple of weeks ago, they said it was a mistake and shut down the servers to take the stones out.

So take advantage of them now, but don't be surprised if they are taken out later... or very soon.

Then again, hyper stones are different here than on the Chinese servers. They cannot be used in Frostland there.

    My first impression was wow.

    I always thought that hypers were one of the more popular boutique items and to find them in the gift exchange and only for 8 tokens each stuck me as unusually generous.

    Does make sense that it is a mistake.

    Just a question....why would they have implemented it here...when PW-CN knew it was a mistake weeks ago?

    Well, if emergency maint does happen, it will be later on today.

    Hyper EXP @ 8 tokens? When they are 40 silver in the Boutique? Unless its a ploy to just buy more packs......

    Interesting... well it certainly makes no sense to have a hyper exp "sale" which isn't actually a sale...

    I hope it is, token prices are gonna sky rocket making my MP food ridiculously expensive and making it so that mysterious pages are a complete waste of time (even though they create some of the best skills >.>), raising the price of one of those skills from around 5.4 mil (at 12k tokens) to 7.65 mil (at 17k). So could we make mysterious pages farmable or makeable by some other means than tokens? That would be a lot more fair now that token prices are going to be obscene.

    I actually kinda figured it was a mistake, so I stocked up on a bit for later resell b:chuckle. And if by chance its not a mistake, I'll just use those to hyper grind my cleric for more spirit points... Didnt realize there were so many skills needed to max out b:surrender

    It's been a while now that the hypers are in the boutique.

    Can we get an update from a GM about this, what will happen??

    It was a mistake on Chinese servers as far as i know, it was not 8 to 1 trade, it was a 8 to 9 trade, so I do not think any thing wrong with our server.

    No no no, you guys are not thinking deviously enough. They sell everyone hypers then have an emergency patch. But the patch doesn't remove the hypers... it makes them unusable in FC and everyone wasted all their money on them. b:shutup

    I'm actually kind of shocked that hyper stones weren't on sale last week before this change went into effect.
