Kinda insane how people always find a way to abuse the system. They could also make it so only one character per class per account gets ranking rewards. That way I don't have to be pissed off when my ranking is lowered by one dude and his 6 alts and his 3 friends that are helping carry and their 6 alts.... I'm only playing this game casually. I only ever get ranking rewards on my one main character. It would be nice to just get what I earned instead of being knocked down the ladder by a few whales hogging all the top rewards.

When can we expect to receive our free premium membership from this item that we got in one of the previous events? It says on there February 17th, but I still don't have any premium benefits.

Yes, according to the post, players are only supposed to get to stage 6. The problem is that some players are able to upgrade to stage 7, and others are not. This is clearly a bug and is upsetting to the players that are not able to take advantage of it.

Seems like another bug that makes things unfair for some players. Please make it fair for everyone and at least offer some compensation for the players who are not able to upgrade. This soul boost event has been great for many player trying to catch up, but it's discouraging when there are so many bugs.

Scheduled maintenance notes say they are removing the cap on evolved stones. THANK YOU! https://forums.bladeandsoul.com/topic/253193-scheduled-maintenance-january-26/

Any comment from @Hime on this? My support tickets just get referred to the forum.

The reason to keep event currency after patch is so you can continue to buy some of items that are capped like sacred vials and pet packs after the event ends. Sure the snowballs weren't capped, but how were we supposed to know that they would change it?

I didn't exchange all my snowballs before the patch as well, thinking I would have time to do it after. Wrote a support ticket and was just referred to the forums. Please get rid of the 5 per week exchange for snowballs. It was uncapped before and doesn't make sense to limit it now. This only punishes players who didn't make their exchanges before the patch. It's unfair especially considering communication of this change was not made clear.

This is also a huge issue for me. Pretty disappointing to finally get those IA accessories, but unable to get past stage 6. I completed the Call to Arms box and never saw the accessory box drop in easy mode. I've seen a lot of "legendary" box drops, but never the purple one. I'm just a casual player and don't have the time or desire to farm for this item that should be easier to get. Breakthrough items were never this hard to get before, so why now? They should change it from Sanctum cores to Sovereign cores. That or up the drop rates, please @Hime

I'm fine if they want to have a "whale only" event. But the amount of rewards that those whales are getting is insane. At least the "Valentines' Day Massacre" event was only for a cosmetic item. Those select 50 Whales that are getting into the event are walking out with thousands worth of gold and mats, which they don't even need in the first place. Pretty sad to see another pvp massacre event on the anniversary. But hey, at least those of us who cannot participate in the event got some nice free outfits. LOL.

Let's not forget the disastrous Valentine's Day Massacre event from 2018. At least that time the only thing anyone wanted was a cosmetic item. Now they have another massacre event for the anniversary where whales can completely dominate the entire event and get massive rewards. You would think that they learned the lesson back then that these pvp events are not good for the community, but no. GG NcWest you never cease to amaze me.

It's really unfortunate to see how they keep making these mistakes. Its amazing how they always come up with some way to upset the players. After all the unwanted changes that they already made, this is just the icing on the cake. You know things are bad when they decide to remove one of the perks for PAYING members. And they do it without warning. And they have nothing to replace it with. This is just another reminder that they are completely out of touch with the player base and really don't care about what PAYING customers want.

This is great. Now I can spend even less time in game since daily dash rewards are so trivial and not worth the effort of logging in. As an end game player, the only thing really worth from the daily dash was the venture tokens. It was nice to be able to buy some outfits or trove keys with those hm coins. It's becoming quite obvious that they asked themselves "how do we get players to swipe more?" And they just slapped us in the face with making the daily challenge more difficult to complete, nerfing gold and materials, and now by removing one of the perks for PAYING members. Its amazing how they keep coming up with ways to ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ off the players. Not sure what they'll come up with for "adding additional value for Premium Members." Free hm coins was a pretty great value. Why not do a forum asking players what they want to see changed about Premium Membership? Knowing NCSoft, they'll just surprise us with something nobody wants (like all the recent changes). I'll be amazed if they actually do something that people like instead of screwing things up, if they do anything at all.

I would be okay with the gold and material nerfs if that meant that I could complete the dungeons and daily challenge quicker and easier. That’s not the case though. It takes so much of my time, it’s ridiculous! I’m actually glad this patch finally made me decide to quit playing my alts. It’s enough of a pain now just doing things on my main. I really hate having to run so many useless dungeons to complete the daily challenge. Before this patch I could do 4 sets of daily challenges in the time it now takes to do 1. And now for far less reward. It’s just very disappointing that they seem to be so out of touch with the community and really have no idea what players want. Please at least add solo dungeons back into the daily challenge list and for the love of god, take hard mode out. The majority of the community is either not skilled enough, not geared enough, they’re pc does not run the game well enough, or they are not willing to spend the time and effort on learning mechanics for hard mode. At the time of day that I’m typically playing, it’s hard enough to find parties to run just “easy” mode of the top 4 dungeons. They’re crazy to think that the average f8 player could do hard mode.

Wow, can't believe people are still crying about this event. LOL #NeverForgetValentine'sEvent2018
