And how many did we have going from +6/7 to +10? I cant really think of any. Suppose I can think of one who went from r9t2 to r9t3 due free orbs to refine but thats pretty much the most terrifying upgrade on archo. The reason why full +10 isnt that terrifying imo is because everybody has +10 wep now and no shards +10 is still fairly killable with ganking. After certain point that really doesnt hold true too well and +11 everything is getting closer and closer to the monster tier you cant even really gank w/o OPs at your side.

I know several people that have went from +7-+10 because of this. Yes, I do agree that a single +10 alone would not stand a single chance when ganked. However, when you're looking at a TW/ NW setting, the new free refines still benefit those who were +7 before the rollback, instead of those who worked for their refines. A single +10 may not stand a chance against a gank, but when you have a new group of +10, it becomes more of a burden as opposed to a +7. I am aware most of the people that are rrr9 have +10 weapons, but the new orbs enabled those people get better refines on their armor for free. Who knows, those newly refined people may not be much of a harm, but my point is that some people who farmed prior to the rb are getting screwed over because people are getting free refines.

Why would a company rollback the server because of an error in the compensation for a rollback? How does that even makes sense to you dumbasses? f:despise

Insanity [in-san-i-tee] noun, plural in.san.i.ties - Repeating the same action hoping for a different outcome.

Depends if it affects their sales. Honestly, this should have just left the rest of the servers alone and deal with Archosaur only. I bare saw any QQ over the fact that ppl on Archo can redeem their code elsewhere. The rest of the servers didn't need compensation in the first place.

Y'all are pushing for roll back but I find this VERY unfair to venos. Yeah great you all get 5x 2x xp/spirit blah blah blah to regain the loss from roll back. But what about veno's who spent days (like I just did my air pet) grind lvlin a pet from 30 to 76. The bonus time does not help us. The pet gets the same xp gain no matter what. its not like there is a place we can go in to like reflections and just sit there while our pets lvl up. Why should me and those like me that didn't recive more then what we were suppose to get be punished?b:surrender

I feel your pain. I wonder if you could SS and get some of the crystals from the event that level pets? In any case, I would take screenshots just in case.

I barely managed to only get 1 code. Didnt even bother to try more. And why would i? Im happy enough with the 3 orbs and all the other goodies. Dont judge me fool! U dont know anything about me.

Please take the servers down and rollback soon. This is so unfair.

For their sales, I had planned to save the orbs they gave me and wait till I'd farmed up to 9 on everything.. but if a bunch of people just got tons of orbs, and refined everything to 10.. I feel like I have to use them NOW to be a +9 in an attempt to compete.. and that will just be a weapon.. I'll still only be +4 on my gear..

Hmm..

i didnt cheat got 1 orb instead of 3 then got code for 2 missing ones then todays code ohhhh wait when i went to get that it was canceled because others cheated so they get 1000 d orbs gift packs with everything and today i got code exxpired thanks pwi for keeping it fair to the fair players great job

Well if the shiit was tradeble, i would give u my stuff because pff i dont even know how to get it to +5 let alone get it up to +9 so i can make it +10. These orbs are useless to me... The only thing i like is the 2 event gold cards.

If I had +7 everything, I believe I could of gone +10 armors with "legit" orbs alone. Everybody on archo could of had 9 legit orbs(2 accounts with e-mail codes, 1 universal), some players like I have god old extra accounts making the number larger. I know somebody got 21 orbs prior to abuse code, add people selling codes, etc. Point being, you didnt even really have to abuse anything to get drastic increase in situation you describe.

Ps. The only ones who should really be annoyed are the few completely finished toons, who now have people catching up to them quite a bit.

Hello everyone,

First I want to thank PWI for the gifts now and always. It does make the game more fun and it helps those of us who grind to get what we want. Second, while I do agree that there are better ways of giving out gifts, the people who exploit these things are more at fault than the game designers. For heaven's sake, government facilities cannot keep hackers out and this is just a game!

I would like to apologize to everyone who did not get a code redeemed, my husband included who has his own account which I do not have the information for, because he was at work. I received the code in World Chat and went directly to the redeem site and once I had received the code for my main I received the message that I could get another in 10 minutes. I did get a second pack for my favorite alt and again received the 10 minute message but considering that I had no way to be sure that there was not a limited amount of packs I decided not to get any further packs.

I noticed somewhere in the 40s pages of this forum where it looks like another professional coder explains how to fix all of this without roll back and I hope that PWI follows this suggestion. I would also like to suggest that PWI look into those people who received more than 9 orbs as there seems to have been a problem with page refreshment and everyone who speaks of it states that their mailbox was filled and this was the most received by accidental refreshment. Therefore, those who have more than 9 orbs on any given character should be perma band as malicious abusers. It is time that people take responsibility for their actions and that we as players help the GMsb:angry by pointing out abusers through screen shots. These are large servers with thousands of users and to think that any GM can keep up with everything is sheer stupidity. Neighborhoods form watches to protect each other and it is about time that good players band together and support GMs in finding and banning those who use and abuse the game and other players to meet their own means.

Rollback = rage
no rollback= rage
presents = rage
