  1. Many people want to collect outfits that are no longer available, and the outfit rotation was the perfect opportunity for people to have the chance to get outfits that they  have missed in the past. As the OP mentioned it should be next to 0 work to bring back the bi-weekly outfit rotation, but it would make alot of your customers happy and you would make a profit, so 2 birds with one stone.

    But the thing is: did this feedback leave this forum? Did anyone heard this at NCSoft?

    Most likely case : Korea got the feedback from GreenStorm, laughed in his face and ignored everything, like they have done before.

  3. Will be really interesting which version of Kaebi we will get.

    The korean version were character that has story + low level soulboost gear gets 500-700 gold per day. ( can be seen here )

    OR the Taiwan version were a character seems to only get about 35 gold on average per day ( seen here )

    Its obvious which version is needed for our gold starved region, and if we indeed do get the Taiwan version it is a spit in the face of every player,especially after GreenStorm promised us that our feedback regarding the missing gold was heard....

  4. Hello, the Kaebi Village Event page seems a bit bare bones, can you give us any info on expected rewards for the event? What items can be gained by completing the event dungeon?  This is an event dungeon that was specifically added to address the gold issues that exist in our region, so  it is a bit weird to not mention the gold gain.

    They need to stop giving us useless stuff in these events!!

    No fusion stones from dynamic and instead 5 large fortune potions... When was the last time people used fortune potions? Hate to say it buy 30k hp is legit less then 5% hp for most people now which already makes them completely useless. 

    1 free obisidan or garnet, but only if you're top 20 even after 8 weeks of the event. 

    Top 20-100 get 15 fearless tokens. the event is 8 weeks. 15*8 = 120. Not enough for most people to get 1 garnet or obsidian.

    They Pysche's aren't worth it because you legit get the same ones in soul boost.

    Meaning the only thing worthwhile from the event for 90% of the playbase is enhancement stones.

    It is even worse than that,since the event duration is not 8 weeks,but only 4 weeks (4/13/2022-5/11/2022) so nobody can get the garnet or obsidian...

    Does anyone know: are our current Celestial Peaches going to roll over and still be usable to buy from the merchant after patch or do I need to spend them all now. I'm aware there's not much of use to buy either way, but I'd rather get something rather than nothing. Since peaches are a non-inventory item I wasn't sure whether they'd get the "antiqued" treatment.

    According to the information given by the RU-version of the game, the current peaches will be useless, so better spend them now.

  7. Hi, I would like to talk about the upcoming Celestial Path patch.

    First of all, thank you for providing the patch notes earlier, it is nice to be able to see the upcoming changes in advance and have a better chance to prepare for the patch.

     

    Soul Arena

     

    Pro

    Small event , that you can do quickly, no need to spend to long to participate in the event.

    Some people enjoy the special title and character frame.

     

    Cons

    The event rewards do not make sense

    As seen in the patch notes, you need 150 Fearless Tokens for the "Gilded Triangular Obsidian/Garnet". Even if you get rank 1 rewards for the whole event duration( 4 weeks) , you will only get 120 Fearless Tokens, so unless we get additional Tokens from another source ,not mentioned in the patch notes, like the daily quest or daily login, it is not even possible to buy the rewards listed.

    It is also weird, that this is the first event in a long time, where Sacred Vials and Pet Packs are not in the reward list.

     

    The dynamic quest is useless in our region, other regions had Fusion Stones in the dynamic quest, making the event dungeon a place to farm this otherwise limited resource.

     

    And the biggest con of them all is the gold reward.
    Yes, we do need more gold and have asked for more gold sources multiple times, so it seems a bit counter intuitive for me to dislike a new gold source,

    BUT the problems I have with the reward are:

     

    a) it only rewards the top 20 players, and even if I myself do not have a problem to get an appropriate rank to benefit from this reward, I think that this change is not a good one.

    We have more than 280 players ( the amount of players of all classes that get gold) and it seems weird to me to only rewards such a small part of the community, this change seems to further alienate newer/casual players.

     

    b) the amount is to low to make a difference.

    The gold earned in the whole event may seem nice, but even for top ranks, it is not enough to help with the gold issues this game has. ( R1:30k, R2:22,5k,R3:15k)

    Rank 11-20 only get 3k gold during the event. Most people know, that this is no solution, not even a bandaid-fix,

     

    The gold issue is already being discussed in this https://forums.bladeandsoul.com/topic/253283-low-gold-income-on-euna-server/) topic so I wont go into detail here, but this honestly seems like an insult, after gold changes were announced for this patch in the producers letter.

     

     

    Raider's Fortune Event

     

    The event concept is nice, but I find it a bit questionable that the raids that are included are Scarlet Conservatory and The Steelbreaker.

    Scarlet Conservatory and its loot are irrelevant for every player.

    Every player, be it veteran or new player, gets better gear from Soul Boost and has no need for the gear, so why double the loot in old content?

    The Steelbreaker raid is still relevant for new players who completed Soul Boost to get more materials to further upgrade their weapon, so this is beneficial to at least new players.

    I do not understand why the dynamic loot is not doubled in the Twisted Serpents Den raid. Many more players would benefit from this, than the Scarlet Conservatory loot. It would also help all new players who are transitioning from the end of Soul Boost gear to better endgame gear.

     

     

    Charmed Life Event

     

    While this event sounds nice in theory and is a way to help the players gain more XP, it shows a lack of understanding about the game from the publisher. Spending any amount of gold and materials on crafting XP Charm, even with a discount, is a waste.

    Just by killing mobs in demonsbane dungeons, players can gain a lot of XP, depending on their stage of course. And even newer players can profit from this XP gain. Not to mention veterans who gain millions of XP from high stages.

     

    Koldrak's Return

     

    Double loot from Koldrak, can be nice, but nothing major. The additional Scales are only useful to buy more Garnets, which can be gained from Soul Boost for free,but hey free stuff is free stuff, even if it is not needed by most of the comunity.

     

    Baleful Bounty Event

     

    Same sentiment as the Koldrak "event". Free is free so no complaining about that, but nobody will be thankful for 4 insignia chests after 4 weeks, when we get 10-20+ each day from Sanctum of the Masters.

     

    Celestial Basin Renewal

     

    Another weird thing in this patch. So the area is reworked, new peaches added, mob hp readjusted, only for there to be no use in farming there? The merchant offers a pitifully low amount of bound materials that no one in their right mind would farm using peaches, since other sources are way less time intensive. XP Charms, that again, are useless,since you can farm more XP by killing mobs. And to top it all of the daily gives us 5gold. Nice now all our gold problems are gone.

    This area seems dead on arrival in our region, since I see no point for any kind of player to spend their time farming peaches.

    I do have to say, that the patchnotes may not be complete, since only the merchant and daily are mentioned, and other regions have useful loot in the boss drops, which are not mentioned in the patch notes. So it is possible that we get a use out of this area ( namely, HM master scrolls and even pet pouches that contain pets needed for AP achievements).

     

     

    Final Thoughts

     

    The way this patch is presented makes it seem lackluster, atleast from a veteran players perspective.

    I understand that not every patch can contain content for every type of player, but this patch seems like a filler-patch. Nothing to do ingame, after your Soul Area run for the day/week. No adjustments to the issues mentioned for months( gold, skill bugs), so no real motivation to spend time ingame.

     

    A question I have for Greenstorm, would be why we have this "empty patch"?. I know that you most likely won´t/can´t answer that, but it would be nice to know. Since the other regions have a new update every month for quite some time now, so we will lag behind even more if our update schedules do not align. And we as the players suffer because of that,since we only get skill fixes every few months.Players have to play with bugy bracelets and badges, or animation locks for months, even if those issues where fixed long ago in the KR version.

    More on this topic can be seen and discussed in this topic:

    https://forums.bladeandsoul.com/topic/253470-skillpatches/

    Even gold fixes that where applied in other versions a lot quicker ( Kaebi Village, or the gold chest in the daily challenge) take longer to reach us. And with no motivation to play and nothing meaningful to do ingame, more and more players will "take a break" this patch and it remains to be seen how many of them will come back once we do get content again.

     

    I would like to ask the community what they think about the things I mentioned here. Do you agree? Disagree?

     

    Best regards, Guerkchen

    I won't "explain myself" because this game and its publishing does not entirely sit on my shoulders. I'm here to share information and yes my goal is to start appearing in all the other forum threads! Until I'm ready to do so, I won't.

    First of all, thank you for at least trying to communicate, we as a community are not used to that, sadly.

    You say that you want to share information once you are ready to do so, but that seems a bit one-sided. Is it not also your job to collect the feedback that you get from the community and report it back to Kr? In that case you wouldn't need time " to get used to everything", people just want to know, if their voices are heard.

    Unfortunately, technical issues happen. We've been planning and preparing for the livestream for two weeks so I agree it's disappointing to not have it today. We'll go over the update's contents on Tuesday along with giveaways and a rundown of what's coming for the remainder of the year.

     

     

    The staff working on preparing the update are only working on preparing the update. Even though, we're only less than 2 weeks away from launch, there are many more sleepless nights to come so we can get the update out the door on time. 🙂

    So, what happened to the rundown of what's coming for the remainder of the year? You did not give us any information on that
