    They should add a mode where you can kill a single boss for a fraction of the time. This will drive gold mat prices up as people will do less TT and Lunar runs as it costs more. I am concerned for the newer people obtaining their gear as it will be harder to get runs and I don't have 12 hours a day to spend in instances.

    no more blessing... ok whatever.

    4 hour limit... dont really care. everything im involved in on any of my alts is usually done in an hour or two. hell, that just means i dont have to see people using telecoustics asking to buy (yes i actually mean to buy, as in pay coins for) finished 2-3 or higher or frost instances.

    new packs.... no suprise

    pw encyclopedia... best idea implemented in the past year. period.

    all the bs with hypers... meh. no biggie. so what, its harder to buy your way from 80 to 100 in a matter of days. im sure someone will find a way around it.

    chest of coins removed.... great. where was this months ago when people were ticketing about them being worthless? and for that matter, what's going to be done about the thousands of them floating around on all the servers that didn't get npc'ed? i know i held onto about 100 of em hopin they might be worth something again someday.

    lvl 60+ 3*... thank you devs for coming to a fairly quick (albeit not entirely agreeable) solution to our version getting screwed because of some idiots overseas ruining their ingame economy. +1 for a good show of faith in rectifying the situation on our end.

    jolly jones again... meh...

    wheres the tiger event or whatever it is that you promised us?

    and ffs people... how many times do you have to fail the third grade before you stop blaming the GM's for every little bit of code that doesnt agree with you? here, i'll spell it out nice and clear...

    THE GM'S DON'T WRITE THE BLOODY CODE! THEY JUST FEED WHAT THE DEVELOPERS IN CHINA GIVE THEM INTO OUR SERVERS!!

    get the point, yet? sheesh...
    ReYVynN-93 barb (semi-retired)
    Reysassin-8X assassin (semi-actively levelling til sage/demon skills drop)
    Sbiggs-54 veno
    and others to remain unlisted...

    Next thing to be introduced into boutique: mats from TT3-3 and from lunar squad runs...actually no wait, Twilight packs and Lunar packs, 1% chance to get mat 99% chance to get tokens. (-_- )

    If I'm not mistaken.. weren't TT 100 mats "supposedly" supposed to be in these packs? Interesting why they removed them :3

    I have been in many squads that take almost 4 hours to complete a dungeon. Many times it's because of wipes out of carelessness, lag or whatever. Sometimes it's due to people having to AFK to do real life stuff, so we hold it and wait for those people to be done. I know that at various points of the day, and depending on the season, I get called away a ton of times and have to AFK.

    4 hours in a dungeon is quite possible and does happen a lot more often than most people say. Under the boss respawn timer is plenty enough to finish and enough to prevent saving instances.
    I seen it too. On average this was back in the days. So now with all the new gear and the easiness of shards, (like beautiful shares were considered uber shards back then) i dont see why pple CANT finish in 4hrs given the better items they are given nowadays.

    Pple should be happy we are slowly reverting back to the 'old days' b:laughb:chuckle

    Ok so let's see:
    Jolly Old Jones accepts tokens, GS or 100,000 coins. Tokens are at ~12,000 right now. So either we'll see a price jump in tokens or this Jolly fails. Most likely the latter, since the rewards are pathetic, as far as I can see. Unless of course, the mounts are rather common.

    Cutting the Mirages out of decomposing completely pretty much makes actually getting mirages somehow pretty tricky, as decomposing was a major element in their spawning, along with TTs. And knowing them, the amount of Perfect Stones won't be scaled properly. Betchu we'll be looking at decomposing 3-star OHT boots into like 80 Perfect Stones, while the 2-star boots give 70.

    And seriously, this time they couldn't even go a week without a pack? That's kinda pathetic. Oh well, at least I get points for calling the "LOL 'TIS SUMMER FOLKS, PACKSPAM!". And a full month of them, how original. By then, we'll be just a few weeks away from the 2nd Anniversary, so maybe then we'll get a bit of time without packs?
    If you disregard what I say because of who I am or because of the contents of what I said, you are a fool.

    Everyone wants to be different, but when you're different you wish you were normal.

    but what makes me mad is bringing back 'Jolly Jones", when its still busted from the last time they dragged it out. many of us still hold orniment and weapon packs we bought for millions from him b:angry

    ok let me c if i have this right?
    • blessing gone: ok whatever we did just fine without them before... just lets us be more 'pro'
    • 4hr limit on instances: lol ok, so since day one we've always had 10hrs to finish a fb. But now, we're only going to have 4... so any squad that doesn't wine a large fb that is squaded by near fb level members, can just write off their fb. 3-3? nah, nobody needs hh100 mats... gv? hell no who needs needs rebirth? Nirvana? R u insane? WTF would you need that? Lunar? What are you in space? I've seen a lot of stuff in this game come and go, but this is really something...

    If you wanted to stop the folks from locking instances the do something smart, like 10hrs! gee I wonder why the 10hr limit in the first place! sure, stop the locks, np, I totally understand, but.......... 4hrs is extreme... we've gone into rb before to teach new members how and spent 1hr or so just walking around explaining how everything worked, practicing dbl jumps, etc... or..... teaching new veno's how to pull, archers how to kite, BARBS how to kite... there are MANY things we use instances for that help folks be better players other then "locking"
    Someone give the GM's some MYDOL cause they are going to need it after this goof, and a baseball bat to slap the dev's with

    It doesn't add up. I have over 5 level 100 characters and have abused FF and hypers to level my alts up, so believe me, I actually know how to run frost and how to be "effective", unlike some noobs who want to spend their entire day, waiting for that one special area to use their hyper time.

    So you have 5 fail 10x, but you know how to run a frost. lol

    And you said it yourself... ABUSE. You're lucky you'll still be able to use Hyper in Frost. You can't hyper frost on the CN servers from what I understand.

    Anyway, QQ more please. lol

    You think the OHT decomps are unfair? Are you kidding? Guess you don't do card bosses. You get pstones for as little as 500 coins each. They easily sell for 750-900 coins, at easily 50% markup if you actually sell them. OHT decomps is one of the best money-makers in the game.

    The 4hr time limit is probably the worst news i've heard since they decided to remove stamp drops from all fb's after 59. I don't often have 4 uninterrupted hours gameplay, and neither do the ppl I play with. The group I play with are adults. We take breaks often for many real life issues. Sometimes we break halfway to eat breakfast, lunch, or supper. Many times dugeon raids are put on hold for hours because ppl need to work, or cook for their family, or go watch their son's soccer game. There is no need for a 4hr time cap! I'm convinced that the community will not stop complaining until the time limit is removed. I don't want to leave this game because I enjoy it very much, but if this time limit on instances remains I won't be staying.

    I am against the blessing removal and the 4 hour limit in instances. FF can take longer than that if people are around 80s, won't be able to do my FFs until 90+ now i guess...

    Sure some people don't mind the blessings leaving, but mind who is healing, no blessing = more HP to heal = more money burn for clerics (my thought.)

    Stop removing things for god sake... we're not in beta anymore are we? why are you just adding / removing things like nuts.

    i'd say 2 hours is the longest any dungeon has taken under normal circumstances, aside from delta/gamma. given that the timer on both of those is set at 5 hours.. i dont think this should apply to rebirths.

    but yea 4 hours is more than enough time to get through 3-3 and lunar, and just about anything.

    i'm a bit disappointed about the bless boxes tho. in delta and tt they do make a difference. some other places as well im sure (just cant think of em atm).

    To the OP:
    Maybe if you took a better approach at voicing your opinion in the matter the dev's would be more willing to read / listen to what you have to say. ^^ If you really do care about the game and wish to see these changes applied to it in the future you would listen to the bit of advice I have to offer you.

    This is how things were before....

    I see nothing wrong with this patch and in fact am happy about it.

    Blessing --> Usually forgot anyways and IF you feel you need do Daily Attendance

    Instances --> Should not take more then 4hrs

    Hypers --> I have no sympathy, there are other ways to level and they have all been done before. It still will give a great bonus to those who use it.


    Call me crazy or whatever, but I see no issue with any of these changes b:bye

    QQ more....
