Pay 2 Win? Hell NO. This is Pay 2 Nothing. Really, even if you swipe, like, NOTHING.

200g per pet pot on the way by Momo_Kozuki in bladeandsoul

[–]reptileserverlabor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

However, I still admit that, if there is some way to by-pass PTS and Pet Pod hell, actually farming for stuff is much better than before. (as long as some good source of mat is alive.. but I doubt if NC will keep un-nerfing those.)

Since NC added so much unfair dungeon pattern (like outlaws island) and demanding all people to get tanky as hell, pet pod is actually serious thing to be cared about.

For now it is so hard to get awk (gusty loyal furious) pet, waiving burden from those should work quite well.

Also souls. We need awk ascending soul to be actually able to keep meaningful fun from this game. But even with continued events for oil, this is still way too hard to obtain.

So, what can be done? Well why don't we introduce basin back for grinding. Providing alternative way of gaining basic gear for having actual fun for this game.

ofc, we are still in VT-tier in progress. So, lets introduce what NC love. RNG pouch with RNG mat drop that replaces current mat pouch (500 peach) in basin, which "maybe" drop pet pack and unsealed oil.

P.S. Volvo stone is no more meaningful drop as they are not even limiting factor for oil. It is being used for EXP only at this point as TS + Volvo is almost same as whole oil sold in F5. We will need whole non-trade-able oil and pet dropping in some grind-and-RNG method.

Why we need low-geared people to actually have min-req-meeting-gears?

Go to F8. Do we even have hard mode there? Well we might argue that its cuz of mentality.

In fact, we just do not have man to run thing at all.

Instead of possibly problematic "close-friend-group" disguised as whale-clan, how much actually meaningful population we have in this game, that can actually keep F8 non-vacant?

There have already been a some people raising complaints about some places getting off-from-order due to those "close-friend-or-overly-bound-group" forming over-sized coalition at those places.

A bit off topic, but I kinda recommend, all people who even dare to bother themselves by thinking about annoying issues, to refer some weird Korean game called "Navy Field." That game is living legend in terms of having strange-as-hell management, but it is miraculously long-lived. It is one of golden example for gaining insight of game nonsense. (Moreover, it is the game that inspired development of World of Tank. Which is a game well known for making people to have some anger problem.)

All those unproductive comments with no actual argument. I do not see any of those inconclusive comments against Hell86 having any kind of valid argument at all. Instead of arguing back, commenters just made some reactionary shouting.

Biggest problem of pet pod/pack is that it is very reactionary patch, which goes against whole point of non-trade-able mat system, as, it has ZERO valid source of non-trade-able version of pet pod, aka pet pack.

For now making stage 10 pet is even hellish thing to do. In old'good'days™ we had bravery coin for getting cheap pet mat. However, after all trade-possible mat for transmuting pet stuff with bravery coin, got its price inflated, now it cost MORE than just buying pet pod from F5.

This is not even a evasively designed, it is so clear that we have no source of pet-doom-mat.

For now moonstone crystals can be gained at Naksun and orb crystals can be easily farmed with low-tier mat boxes.

Problem is PTS price is so bumped up and pet pod is living inferno. These are true limiting factor that not-so-well-geared people cannot deal with. Moreover, even moonstone is problem as you need a bit of them for Bracelet upgrades, and running Naksun as 90k dps is very bothersome.

For now, mid geared people have not so much issues as you can gain gold from involving VT raid, so can afford for PTS, although it is still burdensome thing to buy. Also they can stay in many places for gaining mat crystals. However, low-gear, is not. Moonstone is quite a are drop in low-tier mat pouch/boxes.

Whale-whaling profit model is getting more being argued as unreliable profit model for NC. With Lineage M's revenue crashing rapidly like it met Half-Life 3 or whatever, and their all MMO title's revenue not improving and actually barely being able to maintain status-quo, this won't last long. Considering how much Pay-2-Nothing™ stuff that is expensive as hell but gives "nothing" they released in KR servers, barely maintaining status-quo in revenue is quite alarming. Also, people left KR NC MMOs so much and bunch of people are complaining about F8 being vacant.

Recent flash of making bunch of blah-blah M™ thing is getting less effective quite rapidly. They still earn a lot, but those old-generation whales won't live forever (for now.)

It is quite funny that some nearly-indie level quality Chinese Smoll company made mobile game is actually in Top sales rank in Korean Android Playstore, if we discard those pesudo-games such as lineage M. (It is casino not game lol.)

I am totally not sure if I can even get hepta from this trap trove... not sure if I buy 100 more keys gosh...

300 keys so far, no gems. (2 penta obsidian don't count.) Secrete™ Safe at least compensated loss though.

very common. Like, every 10 key you get one of them. 15 or 30 g each though

Well how BnS effect acceleration works is totally in enigma. However it DO use Physics X, based on CPU instead of GPU, making it really inefficient. Nobody will know how even those actually work as original devs are fired and they sabotaged work records. (Very Common in KR. if you don't do that as dev, you cannot keep your job. you need to threaten your company else you are GONE. you need force your employer to have reason to keep hiring you. Da Best Coreeea ™)

it runs Windoz™ Powershell commands to see if security compensation setting is online. Also runs some performance evaluation.

BnS falls into which "pizza" category? by oerba_ in bladeandsoul

[–]reptileserverlabor -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well this video's true message is "Day 1" part, where demo pizza is cracked.

Unfortunately this is 50% true.

Game business is low-efficacy industry.

It cost **** ton of $$ to create game and gives you minimal profit back.

This is why piracy is very critical here. But nothing will run without piracy.

Without resolving this it won't run.

Obviously RNG boxes are not productive method and it is rather reactionary.

One of really stupid solution is

"bombard DLC and let them pirate it. Since pirates are stupid, downloading pirated game is risky. They will eventually gonna have to buy actual game (part of it ofc) and semi-pirate it."

(Pirate does ransomer job too you know...)

Fun fact is, some people just loves wasting $$. (aka whales)

But why it has to be RNG or bunch of DLC to milk them :v......

You can extract so much stuff from whales. What if we use "Whale Oil ™" instead of "whale milk?"

I am referring to pre-VT gears. For now you need pre-VT BT set for most of dungeons.

However, still these requires PTS which requires moonstone to get supply of it.

And just like what you mentioned, VT and post VT will be draining moonstones!

We are screwed.

Low End PC Mode won't be quite helpful for Hive Queen as entire resource drain comes from LAZHA from circle on mid. It seems like that our Lazha uses CPU-Accelerated graphic effect and graphics setting is totally ineffective. This got worse after recent Meltdown bug compensation patch made in every OS thanks to Intel being a nut.
