Hey Put That Lowbie Dq Back To Old Nerfed Price

Yea, DQ 41 still has the same selling price, and also the amount of coins per mob, obtained from the low level mobs, has increased significantly.


I like this new DQ item update better because the DQ items drop rate is kinda low whereas the coins drop rate is high.
Almost all mobs you kill drop coins, unlike the DQ items.

To all who will possibly say to either accept the "current standard" of pw or quit the game entirely. ive got news for you, all who say to quit pw after the vast majority of us veterans of pw have been on here for over 3 years and counting, know what it was like in the old days of pwi. we had the challenge of farming, grinding coin, drops, the whole 9yrds of doing anything we could to survive. even with the gold prices being 300k+, we still could buy gold in game without swiping moms credit card or putting rl money into the game. so to all who are having us veteran players accept the "next generation of play" you guys need to grow some brains cause you all wouldnt know what it was like back when this game first came into existence. all of us veteran players liked the challenge of getting our armor, weapons, fashion, mounts, flyers, the works. some might of even traded whatever you had for something of equal value. so to all who say that we who are QQing/complaining bout how the game is going, i think your time is up for you guys to quit pwi permanently and immediately. GO CRAWL UNDER A ROCK AND CHEW ON A CAN OF WORMS.

Thanks PWI for ruining a perfectly good wholesome game that alot of us have enjoyed playing over the years. how much lower will you guys go before you most likely will cause a major leave fest of players. as of tues nights patch, your reputation has become totally shot. so you guys better fix everything or alot of us veterans will end up leaving. ty for reading. (for all the good that it'll do since the devs have their ears full of wax/pond water)

There are also veterans who have a good enough memory to keep the QQ from updates in perspective. People complain after EVERY update and always have. Many of things we have accepted and seem normal now were huge upheavals and supposedly "broke the game."

I mean, really. I still remember the updates and the sobbing and tantrums that resulted after BH....Genies..WS...... HH..you name we bished about it.

Uhm, Dragon quest was one of the first things I knew about when I first logged into the game. The npc is right there at the starter towns, any noobie with a healthy sense of curiosity is going to click on it(and presumably begin making plans to save for a violet lightning, at least that's what I did)

Of course this doesn't take away from the fact that this DQ price nerf shouldn't have gone through to our version in the first place, seeing as how botters are far less of a problem here than people not being on the map at all.

At least they still get the DQ points, that's something unique to our version.

Not everyone is going to understand wtf that npc is talking about let alone realize to check the AH to see what a dragon order is worth. Most people start a game they just want to start doing normal quests and kill stuff most people will just shrug that npc off. Also like the high lvl people in here dur hur hur people whine to much I don't care about new people starting the game I have billions of coin I can send my alts that's all I care about.

Limestone has been nerfed apparently as well. Even though its not a dq items. Devs should seriously make lowbie dq items npc for a tiny bit more add in things like elemental frags and limestone.

Most definitely. When I start a new char, I depend upon limestone, mystical fur,
buddha's hand, etc. to get enuf coin to buy the darned pickaxe, lol.

Seriously they should revert these items back because they DO impact a new
player's abilities quite a bit. (And the coin drops from these very starter mobs
is still very low.)

Im sure alot of players who are probably the vast majority that remember back to those times are either still playing very little now or have quit completely. least quite a bit of the new normal back when pwi first started was more centered on the playerbase than pws back pocketbook. Ever since descent came out pw has become a greedy monster just to satisfy its own personal benefit while entertaining us players to death. They add content that they think we'll like but will possibly have the opposite affect. So whats the point of pw entertaining us to death while we (the playerbase) get diddly squat out of what they add/bring in new to the game. All the playerbase wants is to have things return to a much more challenging environment stead of having everything made too easy for us while at the same time the cost of things increases where we cant simply afford in game items without having to somehow depend on rl money to get us things that we would like to get and maybe even more. if you havent noticed how much ppl put 2* gear into auction lately, id say its ridiculously pricey for an item that you almost say is alot less than they want out of it. There's a big difference between complaining/QQing over having a voice to speak out against injustice and the degrade of common sense and that is what us veterans of pwi are aiming for when we are outraged by this recent new development of gameplay when it doesnt even come close to fixing everything that pw has screwed around with.

This is not a mere complaining or QQing over the latest update, this is a prime example of how the playerbase wants things to return to the way things were. Adding new classes, game content, and etc is all nice and good to have but its totally meaning less if its not entirely focused on the playerbase who want things to have a challenge added to it. It's alot more rewarding to work toward your goals stead of things handed to ya on a silver platter. If rl was that way, things would of become alot more chaotic than they are now. Think twice before coming to the conclusion that this is all bout the players complaining/QQing bout how the game has gone or headed. Its a simple matter of we the playerbase want common sense back into this game regardless of the game play, new content, classes, skills, mounts, flyers, etc.

They should leave dq items alone period...some of the players depend on it for ingame income..I don't get why the change other than to try and force more to cash shop! They should be giving new players an incentive to play the game rather than run them off..each new player could potentially be a cash shopperb:surprised

Agreed, alot of players who were once low lvl used dq items as a means of gaining coin. now that they are nerfed how are they able to make an average amount for things that are needed to survive. guess its heading to where ya need a high lvl toon to get coin to your low lvl toons for things that are needed.

I am a lev 30 cleric. I had to leave for a couple days and when I came back I saw the prices and thought it was a mistake. Apparently its not. I do not know what to say. I am stunned. I need lev 30 stuff like armor and a weapon right now I am using a lev 14 wand still
I do not know how I am going to be able to afford anything now. They said the coin reward is higher now but I dont know I do know that I get 1400 a quest but that isnt keeping me in pots. I was going to try to make these pots I learned how life powders or something but if I can not afford powders for my level I am sure other lowbies like me cant. I am at a loss now will it be worth it to continue playing? I dont think I can survive much longer with my armor and weapons as they are. b:surrender

Try collecting crafting mats like silk thread or rough fur and sell them to catshops in west archosaur. That's how I made the most money at that level.

i made a new alt and started from nothing. by the time i was lvl 30, there was NO coins left to skill up, but i had plenty of spirit points. Now at lvl 40, i still am SOOOO far away from skills it makes no difference any more. Normally i could skill and run out of spirit points, now it is just the opposite. Yes, it is really bad for low levels even with the LITTLE extra you get from quests. it is no where near what it was. Deleted toon. willing to bet a lot of new players are also for the reasons i just gave.
