Forge Levels

The Forge can now be leveled up.

In the future, if forging experience equates to either better and higher level forge results, or less chance of failure, it stands a high chance of causing everyone that doesn't have a high forge level to despair of forging. The continual adding of features to create larger gulfs between the haves and have nots is one thing, but eventually, if those benefits cause yet more inflationary pressures in the futures, it becomes a vicious cycle.

Would players feel compelled to forge a lot of useless gears (to level up) before actually forging the one item with scarce raw materials they want to forge? If that's the case, then people will have to create yet more duplicate accounts and use a scheduler with their botted chars to avoid getting caught. JDownloader has the plugin feature to automatically reset modems to get another IP address and Greasemonkey can be used to clean out cookies and registry for each different character's session as characters deliberately lose to certain monsters run by other players.

The forging of useless gears can be accommodated by having players create their own forging alliances where players agree to spend 30 minutes per day deliberately dying to monsters on the list of alliance member monsters. That way, the chance of getting forging drops will be maximized which will also increase the currently way-too-small benefit of using chaos tokens to improve the monster's affection level. The currently allowed information tool that adds numbers and other display info can also be easily modified to highlight the name of any monster on a list of monsters. This would be useful in helping players quickly identify which monsters belong to forging alliance members. At that point, the player can determine whether or not to deliberately lose to that monster.

Another thing that may happen is that players will just go to the handful of players with a lot of forging experience and buy forging services. Such player forgers could advertise such services in the HV buy/sell forum.

i just Quit !!!!

A Scroll of Shielding will now cost 700c !!!!

Thats the price of 10 ..... Have mercy , having a maximum bid .

Why is there nobody complaining that the battles have become easier?

Because monsters can't post.

So there's one deelie that automatically buys crystals when they appear and a separate deelie that automatically generates crystals every so often. Why not just have a crystal subscription service (guaranteed supply at a premium) for the rich folk and leave poor folk their ninja buys?

Crystal mining montage?

I miss the montage

It is easier, but I'm not going to complain about it; it's still somewhat more difficult than 2-3 patches ago I believe... And monster getting stronger and stronger with each passing day, so it's kinda balanced thing out.

I actually kinda like the way Tenb use to 'fixed' this issue, in fact. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

My Montage is gray!

I miss the montage

I remember when the montage was removed when I was level 19 and I was looking forward to levelling up to see what it was.
Sad times.

Because the rich folks are so rich that they will take the subscription and still camp the poor folk's "ninja buys."

A most excellent patch, Tenboro.

I only hope the next one lets me remove spaces from my monster names without cost. I need to even them out.

Crystal mining montage?

Good analogy and yes, I miss the montage too.

Yesterday you could still buy crystals from the bazaar at list price, so it's not that tycoons were grabbing them the very instant they appeared. With the new automation they are.

This new bot system seems bad as everything's more expensive now. Might as well get rid of the item shop altogether as it is just a big empty waste of space, since people can only buy restoratives and a few materials from there. Or maybe just combine them into one place? Well whatever I'll save my credits for other stuff.

Monster Lab

- Made some improvements to the bad name checker for monsters. (Some of these were patched into the previous version.)
-- You can no longer have multiple consequtive spaces or hyphens
-- You can no longer have spaces and hyphens next to eachother
-- Names can no longer start or end with hyphens
-- You are limited to max five spaces or hyphens per name
-- A space=hyphen rule was added to the similar name check
- Fixed a bug where if a monster was named or renamed, the cached initialization data battles was reloaded from a database replica that hadn't necessarily received the update yet, which left it with a blank name until the cache expired or something else forced it to reload.

So much tweaking in monster naming and yet we still can't just check the availability of a monster's name before actually trying to create it and waste our tokens.. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Can I bribe you about this perhaps? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

That's true, the actual Item Shop is literally useless now.

We have something like that, it's called Crysfest + Crystal Perks.

Unlike the bot Crysfest requires human effort, however minimal.

Like most, I immediately noticed the upgrade on the hp/mp chart today.


Almost 11000 hp with over 1000 mp? Mustve been those damn moogles who were dicking around earlier this morning (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)



I had ALOT more success/distance on grindfest just now. Also, I have the absorb spell 2/5 and I thought there was a flub in the software because the friggin spell went for 20 rounds! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)




And just to be miserable assholes, none of the monsters would use magic against me (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)



The real test comes in afew minutes. When it hits 8 o clock, im gonna gauntlet the arena. With the previous update I did alright up to the 25 round arena battle, after that, I was getting my ass handed to me about 90% of the time. Loving the increase in mp.


First thing I did when reading the OP was go right into the bazaar and set up my bids. I think it's kinda nice that Ponie trophies aren't included, that should be left up as a special offer for those willing to camp out. Sort of an easter egg hunt if you weel.
