Indeed, end game is not that interesting (I am talking from a pver point of view). Once a week, you pug BT and the short raids. If you have alts, rinse and repeat. Once a week, you do your VT and TT if you have a static group. If your alts are geared enough and have static groups, rinse and repeat. Every day you can do your 6 dungeons or so (the rest is made worthless, rewards-wise). If you have a group of friends around your level that play at the same time, or if you are made of rubber and don't mind a daily dose of drama, you can do them hard mode. If you are carefree, you do them normal mode. If you have alts and have any will to play left, rinse and repeat. Each 3-4 months, a couple more dungeons will be added and will replace some older ones, with some new accesories to bait you for a tiny bit higher stats. BnS beautiful wide world ceases to exist as soon as you are out of the storyline. And since they removed the blue side quests, you don't ever see half of that world and there is literally nothing to do around that adds to the story, or to the feeling that you are in BnS world, or simply to entertain yourself. End game is like pacing around in a very small cage. Conclusion: Give us back the blue quests. Give us back something to do in BnS big (and now dead) world.

Dear NCWest/NCsoft: We want the full game version, not the "Marketing Director's Cut. Please restore blue quests and let us enjoy the game.

LOL. So they are doing exactly like the players that run like madmen to hit immediately the dungeon boss, burn half of the party with the ensuing wall of fire, leave them all dead there, run to the next boss. Rinse and repeat. Pathetic.

Exactly.

Some events are good, like the last one. It helped many players. Some events are bad, like this one (because many people cannot get credit and loot from the event bosses). Ok, I can skip bad events. The game changes. I have seen it change a lot from launch day. Sometimes for good, sometimes for bad. Ok, I can bear with it and see where it goes. The optimization sucks. They keep saying they are working on UE4 version. Ok, I can still wait. PvP is not for me. Ok, I can just PvE and that's what I do. Fine. They milk people for money more and more and more and some more, ad infinitum. Ok, I don't have to bite that hook. What keeps me here? The storyline. The visuals. The characters. The environment. The combat system. I have enjoyed that since January 2016. My player's choice? Please stop removing the content we enjoy, killing stupidly the companions we strive for, making a further pitiful fool out of our main character, leaving the whole beautiful world deserted and useless, confining us to an extremely restricted, repetitive task that cannot be called "game" and doesn't entice our imaginations at all.

Totally agree with this. Bad decision :(

I'd love to remember, but I did the quest very late at night and now it's all blurry... try to open J and track the quest to see if it shows you a path... or you will have to wait for someone with better memory than me to help you.... sorry >.<

Looking at your picture, there is a yellow arrow near the Lightborn Altar. Try to go there, maybe you missed the pulse before.

Cant you windstride there? The new Lyn Master should have opened up a pulse to Heaven Reach for you at the end of chapter 17. If we are talking of Act 9... Which Act are you at?

I've always found Eckogen's video guides very very helpful: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdZ_vbPUXSCg1p2nHeFad3Q/videos Also Nodah's: https://www.youtube.com/user/codon123/videos And Licod's: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl9p2IBrV-knibutXAbAcog

I wish you good luck! Btw, I am not sure what level are you, but what I always did to farm Obsidian was to wait until I was high enough to practically one shot the mobs. It wont make the drop any less rare/random, but it would go a lot faster for you, which helps a ton.

I don't know if this can help, but what I did for Obsidian Serpent was just running the quest a maximum of 5 times a day, when I had nothing else to do, and abandoning it each time, of course. It took me a looooong time but I finally got the 3 pieces. I really dont know how many runs it was in total, I decided not to count, but at least that way I didnt get burnt out. I did a similar thing with Junghado's hat, just running once a day for the quest (that took even longer), and with Wild Horse and Bully Wrap. Try to do it when you really have nothing else to do and if you can, dont even expect a drop... it worked for me, although not quickly.

Mushin Tower. You will have 2 or 3 blue quests there to open the portal ^^

@Shunaia Actually a blue Bully Wrap to go with Wild Stallion (the blue version of Wild Horse, available a couple of times from F10) would be fantastic. I did try to solo Zaiwei Ruins too, but the bubble-shielded mobs at Han Muki made that part impossible for me :/ And I do hope the changes you talked about make it into the game at some point too ^^

I do respect everyone's opinions and I completely agree with yours in this case, but it would be great if we dont stray too far away from the purpose of this thread, even though what you say is not foreign to the issue... @Liinxy, can we have any news about the possibility of Wild Horse and Bully Wrap getting placed in an achievement merchant? We'd really appreciate it.

@Liinxy, please, dont forget us ^_^

I am sincerely glad that you had the luck to drop bully wrap when some people still did Zaiwei Ruins. That was a long time ago though. Nowadays, a big majority of us are neither able to solo the instance nor to find other people in the same time zone with a similar free time schedule to do it in team. We are not asking NC to handle the outfit and the hair adornment to us for nothing, just to give us a chance to get them, as you had in the old days. An achievement merchant doesn't mean no effort. The case of this outfit and hair adornment being out of reach for many players is due to the fact that Zaiwei Ruins has been deserted since it was taken off the daily challenge rotation. So we are simply asking for alternatives, as we got in a similar 24 instance like Grimhorn Wilds with its corresponding outfit. In any case, thanks again @Linxxyfor passing on our suggestion. Cheers to all^^

Thanks a ton, Liinxy. I keep fingers crossed!

+ 1 I so agree...

As title says... or please add them to a token exchange merchant like we can have "Conqueror" in Grimhorn Wilds, or give us some option, since it only drops VERY RARELY from dynamic quest chest in Zaiwei Ruins, which is totally dead :( https://ibb.co/cWcdHa

I've always dreamt of seeing Zaiwei turned into a housing area for clans. No need to change anything in it. Zaiwei is huge, beautiful, and totally unused. It would add so much to the game, methinks.

I've seen it done 2 or 3 times by the western publishers of others Korean games, like Jongwoon. Time limit, security form to fill up, and it went all smooth. But I dont see much point in speculating among ourselves, NCsoft suggested a post in the forums to see if there would be people interested in this service, and that's what this thread is for... the rest is up to them and the developers, if they want to consider it ^_^

Security steps, ISP check and a time limit it's all that is needed, in my opinion. Also don't forget that this would not be a free of charge option, it would cost real money.

I asked support about this too, they asked me to post here to see if more people are interested. I certainly am, I am exactly in your case, my main is on one account and the only alt I play in the other. So if other people are in our case, please post here, I would indeed pay for a Character Account Change Service immediately if it became avalaible.
