Well quite easy solution. Gift your gold and tradeable mats to a low clanmate / friend (because your next step will get your account banned, but who cares anyway with a developer just focused on ripping off the playerbase?) and just order your bank to recall the money ;)

Well my guess is the following scenario: We all noticed a decrasing playerbase what would compulsorily result in a lower income for NC-Soft. Less player -> less premium and less sales at trove / rng-boxes NC-Soft announced UE4 but annoyed lot of players in the last few weeks what resulted in even more players quitting the game. Now they start annoying players on purpose to force them to quit the game cause they dont want to waste ressources on developing a western UE4-version for an almost dead game. Ill guess when Korea release UE4 our NA/EU servers will shut down, while they try to milk as much money as possible from players as long as the game still lasts in EU/NA

Doesnt change the fact that they jet another time reduced available oils. Oh and BTW: In on thread you complain about people who do daily / weekly on multiple chars and supported the limitation to 5 oils per week/and account and now you tell people they can get more oils by doing events on alts? Funny when your NC-Soft support start contradicting oneself xD

Yeah thats something they never should have changed. With the removal of the 4 player Veteran / 6 player normal system our NORMAL mode suddenly became the new HARDMODE what just was a joke. I remember doing Awakend Necropolis, Liar of frozen fang, Yeti, Asura, Shatered Masts, Glomdross, Ebondrake Citadell, Desolate Tomb and Naryu Foundry with 4 men veteran parties and it was a real challange, when only one died a wipe was nearly inevitable. We had Hongmoon-Weapon and Hopngmoon- Assessouirs to upgrade, we could even wipe in Yeti 6 player groups as in every other dungeon and we did wipe quite often, but we tried to clear the dungeons and on one left after the first wipe, we took the time to explain mech when nessesary. Oh and no one of us expected a carry through the higher dungeons. You finished the story, well good but you didnt expect to run asura or glomdross or shattered masts untill you had at least a decent gear to do these dungeons. Well Ok we also could farm our gold and mats in lower dungeons, maybe not that much gold like in the higher ones but at least we got our mats. They made a fantastic challanging gam with the best combat system to a braindead Hack n' Slay game where everyone fresh out of storry expect to run endgame content. And now they train the players even more to ignore every mechanics and then they wonder why people start crying raids are to hard. They can stop crying, TT-nerf is already on its way and will come within the next weeks. So even TT will become a braindead content :/ With all the other bullshit they have done the last few weeks i'll guess sadly its time to look for another game. I havent played a game continusly for such a long time like and it just makes me sad to see such a good game going down the drain...

Back in time when the game was released we had a Hongmoon weapon and Hongmoon assessouirs which needed to be upgraded. We need to farm all areas, dungeons and field bosses like Gold Deva, Lycan, Jingshi to upgrade our gear. Now you get all you need from the Story mainline, upgradeable gear doesnt exist under level 50+ anymore. thats why all these areas are abandoned. Even if you still would have to walkt from point to point tu unlook windstride point, you wouldnt meet anyone. The lower areas are not less populated, they are already completly abandoned since about 2 years. There are maybe a few people doing the story and most of these chars ar alts off veteran players who did the story multiple times and just rush through it. So forcing people to walk and unlook all windstride point would unnessesarily make the story much longer and would frustrate people. When you start leveling an alt you would know what i mean.

Because people spend to many HM-Coins and way too less NC-Coins on trove and NC-Soft lost not only player but also quite some premium abos and money. So they need a way to rip players off even more by reducing the amount of obtainable HM-Coins.

Du solltest uns schon auch sagen welche Klasse du spielst, ansonsten können wir nur raten ;)

My premium abo ends in 3 days and you made to many "mistakes" in the last couple of weeks. So you better hurry up and give us a few damn good reasons just to consider to buy premium ever again.

You are 2+ years to late When the game was released thats was exactly how it worked. You had to explore the whole map and you had to walk to the next windstride point to unlock and use it in the future. We also had a max of 20k stamina, 30 and 40k where introduced much later. Most even just had 15k cause the item you need to unlock the 20k was very expensive (50+gold) when you only got silver from doing dungeons / dailys ^^ The reason why they changed this and you now have all needed windstride points unlocked without walking to them was the decreasing population. When we start playing every area was full with people playing the story, doing daily sidequests or fieldbosses. Now most areas are abandoned and you very rarely meet someone when you walk throug cinderland / moonwater and even silverstone. Switching back to the old system would just make the storyquest a much bigger timesink where you would have to run for hours through abandoned lonesome areas. And belive me, when you will start playing an alt, and have to do the story again, you will be glad you can pass it quite quickly.

This patch is not a small adjustment its a complete reduction of 66% of the tokens you needed. You should also compensate all those who spend real money to buy reset tokens. You sold resets knowingly you will decrease the needed amount of tokens drasticaly quite soon. This is what some lawyers would call comercial fraud. Never saw any company working so hard on ruining their reputation.

Wow you realy have the guts to sell this to us as improvment, while it is nothing less than a realy shameless rip off of all those who bought resets and you just tell it like you are so generous and caring about us, while you shoul be ashamed to ripp and ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ off your whole playerbase. Instead of learning from the debacel with the archer patch you continue doing one bullshit after the other. Secretly removing venture tokens from daily dash and now another punsh in the face for people who spend money. If i would have spend money for resets i would order my bank to reorder the money and would ask my lawyer if i could sue you for comercial fraud cause thats what it is, you sold the resets knowingly you will lower the needed amount soon and we dont talk about a smal adjustment, we are talking about a reduction of 2/3rd or 66% Well you realy work hard to ruin your reputation completly, congratulations. Just be sure, i will never again spend money on a criminal company commiting comercial fraud

I play since release and maybe got 3 or 4 of the lowest tokens in all that time. Depending on the sheer amount of chests i got in this time, its more like a droprate of 0.0005% ;) But yeah you could have get them. A low, theoretical chance is still beter than no chance at all...

WTF, even 6 player all fresh out of the story should be able to do CS without hitting enrage. I know there was this button. I'll guess they thought he we will remove mech a few "days" after release anyway so why bother writing a description of the mech LoL Thats what i basically said, they fooled us with false advertising in the stream and used the new "Easymode" to justify gold and material reductions. Even they raised gold after the shitstorm the got its not realy enough. Complete Purple Train from SSM up to CC ~90 gold thats a freaking joke when you see how prices skyrocketing. Scared orbs from 60-70silver now over 2 gold each. For a Lunggui Stage 6 chest you need 2 keys thats 12+ gold and the mat you get are only worth the 12 gold when you at least get a evolved stone what is still an rng drop. So basicaly you make a loss when opening the chests unless you are very lucky and get at least an evolved ston from every second chest. From what they are doing to the game, these changes, and now removing venture tokens from Daily Dash premium, it seems like the want to milk the players befor they shut down the server. Exactly what they did with MxM.

Well thats what happens when you dont communicate with your customers / playerbase or even more worse, ignore them, what is typical for NC-Soft. They just dont give a ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ about what their players want, dont listen and then complaining Well at least they havent said "Players failed to connect with us" ...

yeah its frightening boring, and didnt we had this ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ alreads this year somewhere around april / may? Nah thats the shoting range with the yeti we had a few weeks ago, but this one is just 0.1 point behind it thats nothing new, players keep running away so they have to make sure their income stay the same or even better, rise, so dont expect any good stuff for free. 2 years ago several dungeon bosses had haloween outfits, but i think it would have been to much work like Christmas 2017 where we dont even got a christmas decoration but a trove ^^ Best event was the Poharan event with lowered and equalized stats, but sadly the rewards wasnt worth any effort to do it. Well ok most events are not realy worth the time you have to spend...

Im not a whiteknight and i totaly agree with you that NC-Soft totaly fooled us with what they said on stream and what they did at the end. Anyway, is it realy harder than before? Well ok my main is GC9, full TT-geared and is not realy meaningfull to say whether its harder or not. Luckily i still have an alt with easy to get gear. With gems from my Main i get to about 1500AP and can do every dungeon up to WC without any problems (even wiothout gems) and its not realy harder than before. CC i havent tried jet but it should be possible to. Oh and no im not getting carried by my clan, i do my daily most time random LFP. Everyone playing at least a bit serious should be able to get to this gear in 2 or 3 weeks after finishing quest. BT people are glad when someone take the loot, VT, well some still try to sell stuff, while others, doing just the questrun, also be glad when someone take this stuff. So its quite easy, all you need to do is a bit of farming and keep watching for the right VT runs. Well ok i still have the advantage that i had to learn the mechs and know them, but even this is not a problem, go to youtube and search for Eckogen, he have guides for every dungeon. BnS have the best combat system and was meant to be a challanging game, what they totaly destroyed by making things more and more easy and braindead to clear. As i said, the gold and material reductions are not OK, but instead of making things even more easy and deadly boring, they should increase the rewards so that it is worth to do the dungeons.

LoL right, i totaly forgot we get violet or even better from every 2nd or 3rd reward chest when doing daily / dungeons, so your right, there are way to many obtainable in game which will lower the income of NC-Coins and we for sure dont want NC-Soft to go bankrupt, right? First you ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ of the playerbase with false advertisment of easy mode and used this not existing easy mode to justify gold and material reductions Then you call the community stupid cuase we totaly missunderstood what you told us in the stream After a shitstorm and lost of quite some players / premium members you at least raised the gold income a bit and made daily a bit more easy to do. And now the next big punch in the face for premium members, removing venture tokens. If you want to kill the game on purpose, congratulations, you are on the right way, just some more of these nice changes and you pissed of even the last veteran... BTW: As long as you dont stop the abuse of creating 12 chars of the same class and count them for ranking only a few players wil benefit from tokens getting from ranking. This is abused since a long time and people often request that only the highest placed char of one class count for ranking while every other char of the same class will not count for ranking. Great income when people are with 12 chars in top 100 ranking. As for rankings in solo dungeons we all now that non whales dont have any chance. like the FM who killed mao in 2.5 seconds...

Wait what? They removed HM-Coins from Premiumfield? I cancled my premium when archer was released and thought about to reactivate after NC-Soft decided to make some changes, now im glad i havent done it. Hm coins from daily Dash was one of the rare things making premium valuable. So no HM-Coins, no premium.

2x full VT-Gear, 4 with full TT-gear but thats irrelevant, at least BC and even WC should be easy doable with VT-Gear Aransu 6-9. Well nope, lobby numbers are a joke compared to dungeons ran one or 2 years ago. I dont think thats caused by the difficult of those dungeons. I can run BC and even WC with my alt which is Aransu 3, BT ring / earring, VT neck , king glove stage 3 and skybreaker neck on stage 6 or 10, not quite sure atm, keeping about 500k dps. Doing some farming you can reach this gear or even better in 1-2 weeks without problems. Thats the problem with the community. You all got spoiled by continusly making things easier and easier. Back in time when befor Naryu Sanctum was released there was no Easy / Normal / Hard Mode. Everyone who want to play BnS had to learn the ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ and our "Hardmode" was the 4 Player Veteran mode. Then NC-Soft decidd it might be a good idea to make a Hard / Normal-Mode instead of 6 / 4 player parties and our normal mode became the new hardmode, what a freaking joke. From that time BnS went down the drain. Most people got to lazy to learn mech and wanted to get carried or just waited until they even nerfed the normal mode to oblivian. The greed of nc-soft did the rest, so we went down from formaly 12 to now 1 server in EU Like that idea, or just bring back the good old 4 men dungeons and let everyone do the mech, so they will learn them. Thats what i already said, most people are so much spoiled they expect everything to be easy as hell. at best just go to the dungeon and oneshot the boss. As i already said, you dont need TT gear to do BC, WC, CC. Aransu 6, and some decent assessoirs (BT / VT / King Glove / Tiger / Dragon Bracelet on decent stages / Soul / Heart / Pet on first legy stage you got from events) should be enough when you know what to do.

We did purple train just for fun ignoring every mech even in BC, WC, CC, just pure dps. Well ok you need a bit DPS in thehighest dungeons. You have to try very hard to die with some dmg and defence. Its nearly impossible to fail. How much braindead simple you want it even more? BnS depraved from a challanging game with interesting mechanics to a freaking braindead Hack n' Slay game where you realy have to try hard to fail. The only challanging thing left are TT and ET. BT is a solo dungeon, VT you can do with 4,5 players and TT-Nerf is incoming and it seems like you then can even there ignore any mech without the danger of wiping. So even the second highest Raid will depraved to braindead content...

Yeah because we earn way to much gold and need every gold sink possible. Its not like that prices constantly keep raising while income is constantly reduced. I can remember Times where a pet pouch costs 30 gold, a PTS about 180-200 gold, Moonstones about 1.5-2 gold and where you could earn 100+ gold from purple train. Now Pet Pouch 200+ gold, PTS about 400 gold Moonstones about 6-7 gold and income from Purpletrain about 90 gold. So yeah we need more gold sinks and need to reduce mats and gold incomke much further .... There are no gems you could salvage for gem powder except those you have refined with gem powder. Gem Powder is one off the most needed and valuable things in the game beside oils / pts and the sources to get gempowder are way to less. 50 Gempowderor 5 gem Fragments for a pet gem and pet gems are only account tradable with real money 128 gem powder to refine 3 triangle to 1 quad gem so yeah we dont need any more gem powder sources... well lets meet there, you with a fresh out of story char, i with my full pvp geared main, lets see how much you will enjoy this fight and whats your chances to survive and get something valuable out of it. As long as you are not lucky and have some nice high geared who ignore you, as long as you dont attack them, you wont have any chance there as a "low" fresh out of story guy who need these mats most.

Last trove i spend money was summer trove 2018. Last trove i spend HM coins was christmas trove 2018, since then trove got more and more scam / fraud with even less valuable items not even worth spending hm coins. I totaly understand that any company want to make profit, but what NC-Soft is doing with trove is pure rip off. Most stuff is pretty useless but then they wonder why governments start considering rng-lootboxes as gambling and making them illegal like netherlands and belgium already did. I just hope Germany and other EU-Countries will follow this example.

Yeah because a Lyn female without breasts and in a sexy outfit with stockings looks less like a child / loli than a lyn female with breasts. Completly agree [/zynism] Im glad there are at least a few outfits giving lyn breasts and make my female lyn FM looking a bit more mature and less like a 10 years old child :/ Well as far as i remeber from my biology lessons a few 100 years ago mamals usualy feed newborns with milk and it take some time befor newborn start eating solid food. At least i cant remember any mamals that directly start eating solid food. Since lyns seems to be a hybrid between humans and animals (cat, dog, squirril, fox) wich also seems to be mamals, i havent seen a chicken lyn yet, is would be only logical when they feed their newborns with milk to.

This would be a very very bad idea since you can transfer gear now. HM Level says nothing about the gear or the player. I saw HM13 fresh out of story chars with GC9 / full TT-gear except for a complete TT soulshield. If you want something you suggested you need a gearscore and giving players dailys on base of their gear and not the HM level ;) Yeah thats the most ridicoulous part. I think the post Cyan made was quite offending. On stream they told us easy mode will be significant easier and faster and thats why they reduced gold, and theny Cyan call the complete community indirect stupid cause we missunderstood easymode. LoL Normaly he should write a public excuse to the community for this bold offence...

I know, much more easy than TT, my statement was more kind of ironical ;)
