  1. These days I've been reworking the account a bit, and I've realized how difficult it is to equip a character with the perfect outfit, partly because the items obtainable in game often require long farming times (this weekend 5 hours and over 150 kills to get the Carnivore Mask from Huren in Misty Woods 🙄), but also because there is a very slow turnover of cosmetic products in the cash shop. There are almost 1800 items in the showroom including clothes, pets and weapons, to which two or three more are added every month. Is it possible for an average player to think about completing it before becoming a grandfather? I very much doubt it. So here's my proposal: make the clothes purchasable in F3 (perhaps limiting the purchase to one or two pieces per month, so as not to allow someone to take too much advantage on the statistics given by the collections).

  2. PvP during Valentin's event was not mandatory. There were quests that gave some additional rewards if you killed a pre-established number of opponents, but they were not decisive for obtaining the main rewards. Sure, you might occasionally end up in a brawl in the two different rows over the wheels, but what is life without a little risk? Deadly boring.

     

    I would rather reflect on the fact that by favoring the PvE side and suppressing the PvP side, the game is dead.

  3. Hello to the whole community.

     

    It's been a while since I've logged in, maybe more than a year, but a few days ago on a random social network I found an advertisement for this "Neo Classic" server, so I decided to investigate.

     

    I am happy to know that the developers/distributors have finally decided to embark on a path that differs greatly from the choices made in the past 🙂  they are certainly not the first to think of this strategy (Gameforge has long created servers for Aion and 4Story that return to origins of those titles), but I imagine that the constant hemorrhaging of players didn't leave many alternatives.

     

    I only hope that it is not a "trawling" for the nostalgic, but rather that it is the beginning of a new life for this masterwork that we all love, and which too often has betrayed our expectations.

     

    Now, I know that the experts are preparing a Discord server (which I will not fail to visit, bringing my contribution, as far as possible), but I also want to draw up a list here that perhaps will help them better direct their decisions on what to include in the new version:

     

    WHAT IS WRONG FOR ME IN B&S (better: what made me leave the game):

     

    I) The total abandonment of the development of the PvP side of the game.
    A few hours ago I logged back into the game to see the state of things with my own eyes, and I was incredulous to see Soulstone Plain cancelled, as well as the dueling training room and the Tower of Infinity. It seems that any activity aimed at developing a player's ability or desire for PvP is erased.

     

    II) The 3rd spec: playing as kfm, I always wondered what lycanthropy had to do with this martial art. Apart from this, it is clear that the introduction of this feature has unbalanced the properties of all classes, displeasing the majority of players.

     

    III) The excessive quantity of item to upgrade and related activities.

    Guys, we're talking about TWELVE accessories, a weapon (2 if you count the pvp one), SIXTEEN SS pieces (pvp+pve) and SIXTEEN gems (weapon+pet), the SPLENDOR STONE system, the COMPOUND system, the RELIC system, the INSIGNIA system, the f3 collection and now the PORTRAIT collection. ARE WE JOKING THE F**K?

    If I have a maximum of one/two hours a day to play, how can I have fun if I have to spend all my time farming materials between dungeons, open worlds and events?

    I said it in an old post and I'll repeat it here: "I feel like I'm a hamster running on a wheel without ever getting anywhere", because in the meantime the bar for the stats needed to face increasingly stronger enemies is rising, and the game starts all over again. Simply put: there are more interesting things to do in other games than repeating the same dungeon train every day, don't be surprised if people leave.


    SO HERE IS MY IDEAL "Neo Classic" SERVER:

     

    I) Restore all faction and individual PvP features (including the eSports championship) and encourage players to frequent them, removing the 3rd spec, returning to the original skilltrees and reintroducing the rewards in NCcoin or other types if necessary. Also propose nice events like Valentin's wheel in February... 2017? 2018? Well, who remembers it, it was very funny and was never repeated... why?

     

    II) Simplified equipment: fewer accessories and extra systems.

     

    III) Possible transfer of characters, adjusting level cap, equipment and skills. I imagine that not everyone likes leaving tons of outfits and skins in the original server...

     

    Hoping to have been of help, I greet you and confirm from now on that I will give this project a chance. I MIGHT EVEN DECIDE TO SPEND MY MONEY ON IT, WHAT DO YOU THINK? GOOD LUCK!

     

    Best regards

  4. Hello everyone 😐

     

    For me farming gold for two hours a day with the aim of earning marginal stats is very little fun, I feel like I'm a hamster running on the wheel never getting anywhere, there were at least populated arena and battlegrounds would be cool and it would make sense.

     

    In recent weeks I have tried to revive pvp by spamming open world events, the response has been almost non-existent, and I am not surprised, since players are led to focus only on pve. I hope that NCSoft, in addition to proposing new classes and raising the gear cap, will find the time to resolve this situation as soon as possible giving more space and attractiveness to the pvp. I can't believe this management is done on purpose. 

     

    NB: as I had already expressed in another topic, I am aware that the game is changing radically, I hope just this change does not lead to the total abandonment of pvp side of the game. Regards

  5. What better occasion than this extraordinary maintenance to invite you all to the FREE PvP BRAWL which will take place at the Mushin Tower Sunday evening at 21:00 CEST on the EU server? 🙂

     

    The factions involved will be Cerulean Order and Crimson Legion.

     

    Everyone should be equipped with the necessary outfits, so participating will be easier 😉

     

    Do not miss!

    You forgot to mention.. If this is EU or NA or which actual time zone that 9PM is for.

     

    Tho since you wrote PM i assume this is for NA, But who knows.

     

    You're right, I apologize 😅

     

    The event will take place on EU servers, my 9pm is gmt + 2 (Italy)

     

    Obviously, no one is preventing NA players from organizing the same event, quite the opposite! 🙂

     

    Why not do it over the Atlantic and post the fight here? So we compare the levels of participation of the two communities 😄

  7. Hello everyone 😄

     

    This week in our self-managed PvP event, we'll combine business with pleasure.

     

    We know that drug abuse is harmful to the person and to society as a whole. The spread of Wraithbloom flowers in the Cinderlands by the followers of the Tyrant Cult is certainly a risk factor:  they must be stopped, or at least limited in their pernicious activity.

     

    Choose your side: Will you be a staunch Stratus soldier fighting for a more virtuous society, or a radical Cultist upholding people's freedoms and choices, regardless of good or bad judgment? 

     

    Come and swap a few slaps with your friends in the Wraithbloom Meadows Brawl on Sunday April 10th, at 9pm!!  ⚔️🔥🥳

     

     

    NB: the PvP outfit of the Stratus Soldier is provided by the main story questline, while that of the Tyrant Cult can be dropped in the Wraithbloom Meadows themselves.

     

    PS: I beg anyone who has this chance to spam the initiative in the Crimson chat, we don't want it to end in a one-color brawl. Thanks in advance.

  8. Thanks to all those who actively participated in the fight last night, such as Sea Rats or Zealous Guard but also as an "emergency team", donating their Chi to the KO characters 🙂

     

    The only thing that left a little bit of bitterness is that he didn't even see a Crimson in a 90-minute long fight. What did you have so important to do right then? 😤

     

    But don't worry, you can be forgiven next Sunday, in the Cinderlands, when Tyrant Cultist and Stratus Forces will clash !! DO NOT MISS! ⚔️🔥

    Sounds fun, I'll join.  Maybe we should try to do something similar with 1v1 or 3v3 arena.  Something like everyone queuing on fridays and saturdays at the same time.  People interested in this might be interested in more arena matches too.

     

    I'm glade that you find fun it ^_^ if you're Crimson please spread the advertisement

  10. Hello everybody 😀

     

    While we wait for NCSoft to fix the PvP side of the game - battleground and arena - making it palatable beyond the hmcoin rewards, for those like me who can't help but fight with their playmates I thought it would be nice to organize a open world brawl using the outfits of the "minor" factions (in this case Blackram / Bamboo Guard).

     

    The event is expected to take place in Bamboo Village, Sunday at 9pm.

     

    I have all the characters in the Cerulean faction, so we need someone to spread the idea in the Crimson chat.

     

    If the event is successful it could become a regular appointment. 

     

    Hope you like the idea  😄

  11. (I was sure I have already posted this topic, but in my activities I no longer find it 🤔 perhaps I remember wrongly or maybe it has been deleted: in any case, I ask the moderators to report if they find it in any way useless or misleading in order to avoid next time.)

     

    In short, not being a lover of gauntlets resembling modern art sculptures, I wanted to equip my kfm with a minimalist "old glory": Silver Deva Gauntlet, obtainable at liv. 2 of the Mushin Tower 

     

     

    Unfortunately it seems that for some reason this has been removed from the rewards and weapons sold by the tower npc (and, if so, frankly I don't understand why: who was bothering? Did it give rise to some bug? Was it a competitor spy? ) then I ask if it will be possible to get it through the shop or otherwise.

    If you are in NA we can do a duo to show you some tactics, since in addition to reflexes, each class with its iframes are a little slower than others, you know each one with their fighting style, I do it with my 14 characters, I have 1 of each class, and I'm not lying when I tell you that I failed more than 20 times the first time, it's all a matter of practice and patience. 😁

    I'm sorry, I'm based in EU server. Thanks anyway ❤️

    You think it's a good change that the entire PvP scene has essentially disappeared because it stops a few cheaters from earning some extra HM coins?  There are ways to address cheating that doesn't completely nuke the rewards.  And sadly it doesn't just affect 6v6 battlegrounds, it's also made it extremely difficult to find arena matches, which was the reason I logged in to play.  This has nothing to do with renewing Blade and Soul, it was a method taken by the developers to reduce the available HM coin supply given to players to promote NC coin purchase.  It's really as simple as that, though I expect they didn't calculate it would completely end the ability for anyone to 6v6, and so I imagine they will eventually revisit this decision or improve the rewards earned at some point.  Even if they some day fix these issues, there's just no guarantee that PvP players will return.  I guess I'll just hope by then that enough players interested in PvP haven't moved on to other games yet.

     

    Claiming that NCSoft removed the rewards to save seems to me inaccurate, since the rewards in hmcoins have not been removed, but have simply been moved to the demonsbane rankings.

     

    Do you still enjoy yourself knowing that the only thing that drives players to pvp is to make money?
