That is true but at the same time seeing how you can farm it without bloodstone doesn't really mean they will reduce it like I mean they more or less phased out the other 2 pvp soulshield sets making ivory the new standard, but you don't see them reducing the cost of the one in misty woods or the 50 starter soulshield do ya? If they make adjustments they also need to lower the cost on nova core some as well since it is no longer the best in slot for pvp. Also, they did make reductions to the new starter pvp weapon already since removing galaxy tier.

Things need to change based on our gaming market. While what might work in Korea doesn't mean it will work here. If they continue they need to understand that and make adjustments that suit our region. I agree with those points. Still though I will voice my opinion as you all will yours and while we might not agree on things we both enjoy the game for what its is, a time killer.

You have people that kill low levels for numerous reasons. Personally if I'm doing faction and someone attacks me I don't bother to check level before I kill them. If its a low level, it is their fault for attacking while not checking the target's level. I mean the fact that all of my characters are in a clan should be a dead giveaway I'm not a NPC. Any case those who stated that the outfit before equipping even warns you, you can be attacked by the other faction should be a warning. Don't want pvp, don't wear the faction outfits.

You know you can farm the Ivory SS from moon refuge so why reduce the cost?

Could just be someone being dumb also lol

They don't but people also have to keep this in mind. We were what 2 or so years behind Korea in terms of playtime and server uptime and we caught up you may as well say pretty damn quick lately which doesn't give our version the time to really to adjust to all of the changes because if they don't people will complain about lack of content but then complain about the sudden changes. See how it is a catch 22? A lot of the stuff should of been changed base on our servers age and while I get some points about new items being added to the hongmoon store which make people like Merlin scream bloody murder at the same time. The store could be so much worst and really right now as I see it spending money on the game is more of a 'shortcut' then actually a full blown p2w situation. While your opinion might differ doesn't mean either one of us is really wrong. Opinions are like ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤, everyone has one. But I don't think they are really trying to do that I mean they did some things here like they did on Lineage II while it might not be as strong as it once was, it is still kicking.

Servers come and go it happens to every game. Newer games come out and show promise so people flock to them. Look at WoW its not what it used to be and could be considered "dying". It is just how it goes. Games also shut down due to lack of income, don't be dumb and think they don't need money to keep servers running and ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ so course they need to charge / make profit to keep the game going. You have ways to get moonstone while it might not be ideal. PVP, don't like it? Save up when you do weeklies/dailies and if you do a ton of characters which honestly I run 9 a day through dailies it doesn't take long (nothing says you have to do all of the dailies / hardest ones). Make gold buy what you need is a liable option as well. Not making enough gold? Farm dungeons on more then 1 character a day. I can do just from dungeons and dailies a easy 900 gold a day + money I make from crafting and on the off shoot I get pulled into doing a raid with clan / friends even more. All with me being free to play. Again, if your not willing to invest time, you need to invest money into progress anywhere in games. Oh and let me mention one last thing, I get all of my dailies on my characters done within 2 hours or logging on leaving more time to go back through and help clan members throughout the day and do other dungeons for even more money.

All RNG my little friend. I'm full purple on my summoner and haven't spent a dime on ncoin. Your p2w definition is different then mine. The true definition of P2W is basically you buy something that you can't obtain by normal means that gives you a advantage over those who are free. Trust me it could be sooo much worst but its not. So, just face facts you got shitty RNG my friend. Also, it only took me a few months to get gilded gems so not really sure what your going on with that? If you want to get anything done in any reasonable amount of time focus on it. Work on 1 item then work on the next and so on knowing that some items are basically your last upgrade as they take the longest if your not willing to swipe.

Hmm 5 oils easy from this event and last event per week with just 5 characters, he is right they are easy and the event doesn't take that long. Oh and if you happen to do a f2 search for me, I'm lazy on upgrading and never feel the need to be at end game / most recent gear to enjoy the game so keep that in mind if you judge *wink*. Either way to catch up to your 3 years worth of work with the latest reduction I could do it in a few events without much issue. You could get even further with the same amount of effort for free well your time.

Most of them just want something to ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ at instead of finding real ways to make money. I mean hell all I do is craft and log onto gold everyday which is more then I'd make doing dailies.. Also, I'm free to play here.

Seriously, your starting to sound like a broken record. Everything you can buy you can earn from farming. It won't be as fast but it is still possible. If you don't want to spend your time on the game then spend your money. That is their F2P model. Don't like it? Go somewhere else. Also, do you know the exact drop rate on the fragments? No, you don't and honestly no one does. It is RNG. Sometimes you can go in and get a bunch of fragments or glove drops off each boss or you can go in and get jack ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤, deal with it most of us have. Also, you say the breakthroughs drop in every run of TSM ect.. Then explain that to my friend who farmed it I think he was on run 51 before he got his ring? Drop rates can be a ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ sometimes.

It still doesn't remove the fact that all Korean games have grinds in them whether we are in Korea or not you do realize this right? As far as drop rates they suck I agree however, it is part of the grind considering that is more or less for most classes / specs the Best in slot "endgame" necklace for now. Should it really be that quick to get without needing to farm? I mean they could offer us a true % figure on the actual drop rates but they really aren't inclined to. Also, my friend got a few gloves to drop the other day with very little grinding its just the RNG. Like I told a few of my members, if you find a game to be a full time job or just not having that much fun go find something else to occupy your time. Blade and Soul is one of those games that you honestly do not to be at the very end game in order to progress unless your attempting the newest raid. If you feel you MUST have that to do anything in this game then we are playing 2 different versions. As for your discord / friend list bug comment. While I get you it should of been fixed back during beta, it still isn't a game breaking bug like certain things that come in mind that people are abusing that I rather not discuss openly to further promote doing it. Again though you can either farm your ass off and spend in-game gold to also buy what you need or you can swipe to speed up your progression. It could be done much better but that is how Blade and Soul has been since the start due to their F2P model.

1. There will always be server lag even if your right there next to the server. 2. They could cut back on events instead of doing every month, to every 2 months allowing for newer events that people never seen. 3. Your opinion, sure I will agree most of the good looking bikinis and custom outfits are locked behind F10 but a lot of them are still nice. 4. They never had to hold a contest, everything could be handled better but you offer no real feedback other then fail! 5. *shrug* 6. No one knows that, could be they are looking but just simply don't wish to put in the changes. 7. I slightly agree. But fishing isn't a ripoff as such you don't have to use the best bait to earn achievements / enough points. You pay the gold for better bait you get the chance to speed it up (much like being free to play compared to whaling out).

You do realize this is a Korean game foremost. I can't speak for you but I have played a few and I can tell you there is always a grind to them. This one has many forms of grinding. If you can't handle the drop rate, the amount of experience needed for leveling up ect.. Please don't play Korean games then. Many games have trends of adding grinds to drops. Also, they can pass information along but they aren't demanded to provide a timeline for it. With things like discord you make it sound like friend list bug is a game breaking thing its more of a QoL fix. Now I do admit since this isn't beta most bugs should be gone new bugs spring up with every update just because not only do we get the updates in segments but also it has to be translated. Things would run much smoother overall if we just got the Korean client with a language option.

Wings don't fit with the whole theme of the game to be honest. I'm shocked they even have any set of wings lol. Hell doesn't even really go with most outfits if you get down to it. 1mil dps steady isn't very hard to achieve for most classes. Especially with all of the upgrade events that help you along the way, if you choose to buy the outfits instead of upgrading then that is on you / them, not the game, not the event. The wings look ok, do I want them? nope. But like most of my posts instead of complaining do something about it, upgrade your character through effort or swipe that mighty visa.

In truth this event isn't that bad. People complained about the Longgui event because they were unable to earn both event tokens, now they complain they can't get some stupid wings that lets face it, just doesn't fit the whole theme of the game and are meant to be a fun vanity item that helps you in no way what so ever. What a fun community. Oh and I do this even on 9 characters a day but do you see any complaining here from me? Think I've made my point so please continue.

Just to inform you, weeklies are bugged currently, unable to claim chest for 3 and 5 challenges.

While they don't go into your showroom you can certainly use it as a weapon skin. Personally, I use the dagger/razor one.

Ok, what if you could actually turn a profit depending on rewards they might offer in the future but still if they don't offer a afk feature then this whole argument about use of 3rd party programs to fish for you would be extremely valid due to the 'botting' nature of said script. I personally wish the system had were you couldn't afk it at all and actually had to 'fight' the fish in order to reel it in but that is just me.

Just going to say this while my pc is considered more low end (i3 8gb ram and 4gb vid) I don't have a drop while playing on my BM 3rd spec. Maybe it is just the settings you are using or something. Oh and full party raid or not I still get 15-20 fps, 35 when out of combat steady if that helps at all. Still manage to play it just fine holding threat off players who burst 2mil+ dps so *shrug*

Not entirely true that you wouldn't reach the required dps for a raid. For example while my ping is probably better then yours I can do with just a Raven 3 around 300k steady with just using simple mode. Might not be ideal rotation but it is more then enough (this is on my fire forcemaster by the way). Oh and to further help you understand that is with in combat fps of about 15-20 and normally 150 ping. More gear just increases the dps / better accessories would as well. Only raid that would require higher then 1 million dps would be the newest one which if you went in geared enough to not be considered a carry, you'd pull that without breaking a sweat using simple mode. Anyways, why don't we stick to the topic at hand which is about scripting fishing which is borderline botting regardless how people may want to try to defend it.

I'm not one to complain and which you know that and I have posted previously that if they actually enforced their own ToS a lot of players would be gone, which is why they should of enforced it since day 1. You want better ping? Get better internet and play on a region close to you. If no region is available? Deal with it or find another game. If you need to use a script to auto fish or auto anything other then combat? Just don't do it. Lets face it, if you fish for 1 day fully you are done with fishing with regards to this current event (you'll have more then enough points). The game runs just fine on any computer. While you might not get max frames or able to have it set on high settings it is still playable. I'm used to playing this on my office computer desktop with bare min. specs in order to play it and do just fine. If you don't meet the min. specs required then really you should be upgrading your computer and not relying on some program to let you play. Specs will increase slightly when we get UE4. All in all I stand by my earlier comment. If you have to bot / glitch something in order to do it/run it/obtain it then you probably shouldn't be doing the thing in the first place. Don't have time to fish? Then just don't bother doing it. @Fiana I'm sorry but your comment about you must use a macro in order to do the correct rotation..I play all classes just about and have yet to find one that I can't manual. Sure the timing might not be ideal but that is a whole another topic about damage per second and how after a certain point it just numbers to stroke one's ego.

Even based on the short amount of time, it is almost like you say sure bot because they gain nothing over you. Those that don't use the scripts need to be at their computer in order to gain it like @CrazyDude90 said. The players using the scripts can be sleeping while gaining it. See the issue? Also, for players like myself that do fishing on more then 1 character everyday those 30 mins adds up but at the same time I will truly be able to say I earned the title, achievements and points by my effort, not some program. Why don't we let people bot arena? Oh wait they eventually ban those players. @ElectricPotato If players have to resort to basically botting / scripting in order to do something then maybe they shouldn't be doing it. Much like I tell players about still bugging skybreak spire. If you have to bug or glitch something to get it done, maybe you shouldn't be doing it or go learn the mechanics.

I refuse to use it as well so your not by yourself. I personally feel if you have to automate something because you find it boring then you shouldn't be doing the thing in question in the first place let alone gain items in this case. It is on the verge of a form of botting. I mean really guys it isn't hard to do fishing in this game, it could be much worst where u have to use the arrow keys to actually fight the fish in order to reel in it like some games I've played in the past. Oh and for the haters 0 shits given ^_^v

The area you need to go is literally behind the building. It isn't in the hideout.
