The thing is ... they could be swimming in a lot more cash if only they put outfits and worthwhile stuff for sale.
But you're right, they only want to sell pay-to-win crap that almost nobody wants.
TBH I did buy the pay to win stuff since I am truly a lousy player (60 year old disabled makes it hard for me to react quickly and play well) so I am sorry for perpetuating their business model, but I guess never getting that rhapsody outfit was the last straw, trying everyday for 1 NCoin at a time.
Be that as it may I still run around Celestial Basin & other places enjoying the environment but I would like to do it in various cool outfits & weapon skins but my gaming resolution is no more $ for RNG.
While it looks good on my characters I would sell or trade my Quickdraw outfit to someone who would actually appreciate it more than I do. But alas NC makes sure that cannot happen, so it sits in my Gunslingers F3 closet, moth eaten until I feel like looking like a cowgirl instead of a Hooker in my Rough Customer outfit :P.

I'll admit in the past I did spend real money on expanding Trove slots, but when all was said & done it would have been cheaper to just F10 to buy Weapon gems then transmute them into the one two colored gem I did get from trove.
I learned my lesson and am basically living in the Primewealds to get my KFM enough gems to be even a little powerful, as I used the most recent C2A on my Gunner.
It's all good, I learned and there are plenty of current whales (I consider myself an ex-whale now) that will keep the game alive financially.
B&S is a stunningly beautiful game, I love roaming around Celestial Basin gathering mats and hoping for that elusive key that I got twice.
I am not going to rage quit or anything just let my subscription lapse and go FTP all the way, NCWest knows how to get my money if they want it.

Hey NC, if you really want my $100.00 to buy 8000 Ncoin so I can buy the 7999 Ncoin pet gems bundle(s) how about not making the gems random?
I understand that free things from chests like Mushin's Tower might be random to keep people playing but if I spend $100 I want something specific for my cash.
I am a lousy player and need all the help I can get, but random is not going to cut it. I have thrown away so many duplicate gems from Primeweald it makes me sad, but I get that – auto combat with no effort on my part results in random.
Already too much stuff is nickel and dime like outfit transfer stamps and sealing charm fragments to transfer to the same account. I have some cowboy (Quickdraw) outfit from the launch in the west, and it looks good on ally my characters, but it would be nice if I didn't need 6 outfit stamps every time I make a new character or just want to put it on one of my existing ones.
And the heck with failed transmutations. As a lousy player materials are hard enough o get without losing them.
I might be in the minority but felt it needed to be said.
And if I could choose any outfits I wanted at least once every quarter you would have piles of my cash.
Peace

Since I got my new PC I have run this dungeon 10 times a day for over a week, at least 5 times a week for the last three months and many many times before on my old PC (easily over 100 times on the old one) and it never dropped.
If it ever drops I will update this thread and I hope you, or anyone else would do the same.I do remember it before when it said you get get it in Dreadtide Arena.
I occasionally run it on my KFM and the chest in the main room still has the glowing green thing over it so she can open the chest.
The chest never has the green thing when I use my main Gunslinger.

It is a weird feature I agree, and with the release of UE4, you thought they would fix the majority of issues that UE3 had other then performance problems, however, the shared CD between CD Boxes were always a thing, from the day they were released I believe, I don't remember them fixing this problem ever.
Having an event with Lamps/Pots after C2A event, happened in the past too and people always complained about the sharing CD of these boxes, the weird part about this, is that they know this issue exist & they know that such events have complications between each other, before they release them, but they still choose to release them one after another, instead of spacing such events out to smoothen the issue. While I don't have such problems myself, as I always complete my event weeks before end, It would suck if I had to deal with such issue.
however, you don't have to open C2A chests, you can ignore it, and just do lamps, until lamp event ends, and then finish your C2A boxes, unless the required gear is really necessary to finish your 4 daily challenges for the polishing cloth, now I can't guarantee that such thing still works with modern C2A chests, but on NA account I still have C2A chests that are from many many years ago, and I can still open them even if it says "Expired" - as long as you have the keys for it.
maybe @Hime can confirm on this for latest C2A boxes?
I have this C2A Chest for many years and can still open.
Joy to the Realm Jackpot which was release in 2018 - can still be opened.
and then there's - that cannot be opened anymore.
so really, all we need is confirmation from @Hime if the current C2A chest will be openable even after expired, which I'm pretty sure it will be, do it at your own risk though.
After this fiasco I do not trust that somehow my last C2A boxes would not disappear or become unusable, others have said things have become useless or disappeared even though the items were slated to be used through November.
I am sure I could go to support IF this did happen (they have recently helped me and I was very happy with results) but since I paid for them I don't want to risk it and have to be hassled to get them to fix what they broke. -

Anyone else noticed, they removed the the fishing cloths for pearls but left the 80ncoin cloth in the store. *wink wink.
Sneaky p2w devs. Pretend to accidentally remove the f2p one and leave the store one so that your forced to pay if you want to even reach all 60 lamps completed before event ends. hahahahahahahahahahahahaah.
Whoa never even realise it shared a cd with C2A, but at least i finished c2a ages ago lels thank god. i would have cracked it if i knew this event affected those boxes and i had still had to do that event. Does opening your lamp make ur c2a box go cd for 21 hrs or is it the 5 hrs? 🤨
I am afraid to even try to use the lamps in case they somehow mess up (like removing them early) the 2 C2A boxes I have left.
I don't think it is supposed to share a CD but it has been this way since I got the 60 lamps on the first day.-

Can make 58 without having bought a single polishing cloth via angler pearls. Only need 1 day of fishing to cap out as a f2p.
If you want the math, here
35 days event
6 cloths from dailies
2 cloths from afk login ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ reward
8 x 35 = 280
+ 5 from purchasing the 60 lamps, +5 for the compensation that removed them ironically enough
Leaves ya at 290
290/5 = 58. Fortunately there is hope for f2p yetIf the 5 in your 290/5 is the 5 hour cool down then it will not work for me since my lamps share a cool down with the C2A chests.
I am 4 hours from my C2A chest cool down ending but have two more to go, so for the next 36 hours I cannot do a single lamp and I have read others mentioning they share a cool down with some other charms (which may have been fixed)If the 5 in your 290/5 is not the cool down please ignore my math 🙂

Free to play don't need fishing for it, but fishing let us optimize our time and do the lamps at a decent rate.
I would be more worried about the 5 MOTHER❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ING HOURS OF ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ COOLDOWN!!!!
Which is absolutely pathetic...
5 hours? I wish!
For some of us it is 18 hours, sharing a cool down with C2A chests.

Guess anything that doesn't cost them money is minimal priority.
But it will cost them money.
In another thread I mentioned since I came back I have spent $1,000 on outfits, catch up Gems, & way to many Trove keys.
I will spend no more until issues are addressed and addressed quickly, and then maybe not, staying until my PAID sub is up and them will decide.

Me too. I only have this mornings 18 hour cool down and two more to go.
I feel bad for you. I think (if they don't wreck the chests I have left) I can do my first lamp probably sometime Sunday.
I do not have a lot of gold and bought a thousand or more bait (150 or so gold - a lot to me) to use the Anglers Pearls to exchange for cloth and now that option is gone.

Only if they fix the shared cooldown with the C2A chest. I still haven't got to use a lamp since I am still opening C2A chests.
I just opened a chest and have two more to go, so 18 hour cooldown x 3 = leave me almost two and a half days until I can open my first lamp since I want to open all the chests in case they somehow screw that up.

The thing not removed but should have been is the shared cooldown of the lamps

I guess I have to wait until I open all of my C2A (4 boxes) then do the lamps?
I hope the lamps will revert to their 5 hour timer so I can use them since it appears I have to wait 72 hours (18 hours for each C2A box with shared CD timers) before I can access the first lamp. To me C2A is more important but it would be cool to see what the lamps offer up.
I hope they fix this.
-
Yes. Opened a C2A box shortly before getting the lamps.
Thank you.So I guess I will be getting to use the lamps every 18 hours until all my C2A boxes are done.

Did I do something wrong?
I still have 60 lamps, didn't use one yet and they are at a 17 hour cooldown.
Did I accidentally trigger something?
The Lamp tooltip says 5 hour cooldown.

Thank you!

I have looked and could not find what IA stands for.
Thank you

I have had two separate issues, both my fault, in the last two weeks and support has fixed the issues for me quickly (each within hours) and with no problems.
It is my understanding that I cannot post specific issues or support tickets / names but I wish to thank them for their help in fixing my mistakes.
Thank you GM "alcoholic beverage" & GM "two letters"

Rhapsody Please
I bought the 1 NCoin box every day it was available and got nothing.
There are at least 10 costumes I would buy with CC, Rhapsody for at least three of my characters.
-
I would welcome this.

I also thought I had enough disk space, as well as many others on Reddit.
I uninstalled everything then reinstalled to a larger disk drive and had no problems.
A thread on Reddit explains what to do better than I could here.
It may not be your problem (mine gave an error message) but some threads on reddit, as well as here, helped me with the error message and stopping at 11%
Good luck
-
It seems that was the issue, not enough disk space.
Installed & ready (or so it says)
-
Thanks for the replies
My C Drive was filled up by 71+ GB of UE4 download so I uninstalled B&S and reinstalled on my D Drive
My C Drive had 71 GB free before the UE4 download and at 13% I got the error
Installing on D Drive now - at 34%
At this time it seems that UE4 took up 74 GB installing itself the first time
-
Having the same problem. AV turned off, defender off and still get the message.
Any help from anyone would be appreciated.
New install (2 months) on new PC, no mods.

Yeah, I have so many dragon pouches on characters that don't need them (unless they eventually allow us to expand the vault) and can't send them to characters that do need them.
