They will not be changing things for NA/EU just because players want it. Anything they would try to change here would need to go through KR first. They are trying to keep as much as they can the same between the regions to save on making custom patches and development costs. BnS never had an actual "end game", in a sense as other games have it. the end game here is repeated dungeon farm / pvp. they will not improve raids / rewards because they scrapped raids all together, there will not be any new raid content ever. And they will definetely not give some amazing rewards to something that 2 hits and over. While granted, a lot of things would be really nice to implement, however reality is, a lot of times its not because nc doesnt "listen" or "care", but its because KR refuses it. If KR refuses it, thats that, done deal and will not happen. As for the patch, 14 days delay doesnt hurt anything or anyone, all it does is gives you 14 more days to enjoy the game before the bugs start rolling in.

Not really, personally, I think all rankings should just be removed from the game period, if nc does not give a damn about keeping them clean, and punishing there is literally no point to them.

Because it was mostly whales, wintraders and script abusers. If rewards is what makes people hate PVP that just means it was not a popular thing in the first place. If you really liked PVP you would still be doing it regardless of rewards. It was just the easiest way to essentially "scam" yourself into free hongmoon coins, nothing else.

The game does not have that many new players, also most people simply stopped doing pvp due to the way certain things were abused in it. The only ones who really care about rewards there are the whales.

I honestly think bns has been put on maintenance mode and we wont even get new content in march.

Not jsut outfits, unity stones (albeit rare), mythical amulets, and a few other things that would cut into revenue xD

Greenstorm did confirm that regardless how many you buy you will only get 1x 7 day premium.

The problem seems to be the compound fact. I mean, he could technically agree with them to take it out and lost the etchings, there should not be an issue, though, they will definetely not just give him the bracelet. Despite it being a NC issue, they would essentially be giving you a free item (regardless if its useful or not or great). Thats where the problem lies I think. If they would have a alternate thing to swap there would not be an issue. At most what I can think of, you could simply try and drop any other necklace or bracelet (regardless of class) and try getting that exchanged. Personally: Whenever i get something extra I always keep it as is unless i really need it, in this case doing anything with the second necklace would not give me any significant benefit so i just kept the box for now. Especially when it did feel "off" to get 2 of them.

Altar does not persay have one-shot things if you fail a mechanic but there are things that will deal a ton of damage to you, and if they overlap you die. Mainly: - exploding puddles on the ground - exploding orbs - exploding circle if you do not do the mech As far as altar goes if you really wanna brute force it, make sure you have enough health for it and that you cna recover it it / iframe you can do it without the damage buff even, though for that, people need to know what they are doing with the class they play and do proper rotations, most of people i encounter with soulboost are those who jsut think "oh free gear might aswel make a random alt jsut for it and be done" without actually knowing rotations and they end up doing 10 mil dps with full soulboost gear because they have no clue what they are doing.

I had no issues completing it on 4 alts so far with a group of other sb people. The only thing where help is actually needed is the Stage 8 Chaos supply chain. The other stage 5's are easily doable. Ofcourse makes you wonder if you just tried to brute force it or actually did the mechanics.

If you still have the necklace or box you can send a ticket to support and they will swap it out.

I had an awakened zenith badge so I could jsut upgrade it to the dawnbright one. Didnt need to farm or drop it 😄

If you still have the starcross essence try this like for dummies: Today's maintenance resolved the soulboost bug where you received 2x Starcross Necklace Chest (Instead of 1x Necklace Chest for Stage 19 and 1x Bracelet Chest for stage 20) However my character was already past that stage before the fix and I received 2x Starcross Necklace chests. I used one and unfortunately salvaged the second one. Salvaging the necklace provides you with 1 Starcross Essence which I still have in my charatcers inventory. Would you be so kind to exchange it for the proper soulboost reward which is 1x Starcross Bracelet Chest since the 1 Essence is equivalent to 1x Starcross Necklace? Sometimes they need to be spoonfed to understand things. But if you explain it rationally it helps.

The Essences arent really the issue since they are easy to get, problem is you can only buy it 1x per account. If you want it for alts you will suffer. Honestly necklace and bracelet should be a chest to pick and not another rng mechanic made to artificially extend an already tedious and boring dungeon spam.

it is very likely we wont get it until March 8 when the redemption period for the event ends.

I recall the weapon or at least a very very similar one being in one of the bundles in the HM store at some point but it is no longer there i think.

they said "lighter content" which means what we get in February will not be something major or a lot, but there will be an update. Nowhere did they say they are skipping an update. As far as I recall they clearly stated there will not be any raids anymore at all. Unless I am mixing things up. Generally, the producer letter is no big whoop...same topics come up as they have been since release, just slightly shifted. the producer letter was typically always just to quiet the masses a bit.

Well....if you are playing from one of the loot box blacklisted countries you will not have the boxes in F10, and no one will be able to gift them to you, so technically you cannot get them at all that way 😛

You no longer use that to change weapon appearances and pet appearances. They all work the same as regular costumes now. You go to the costume tab in inventory and jsut equip the weapon skin.

ehh.....it will be tackled like everywhere else, they will remove loot box content from the countries affected meaning, if you are outside of EU you will have more options and choices to purchase items in the game store than in EU.

You need to be realistic about this. The game already supports English, German and French. Translations cost money, and time, to both create them, maintain them and test them. That would be additional money that people would not be willing to spend seeing as english is a universal language. Not to mention with treanslations would have to come additional voice overs and more space would be needed for the game itself (since xisting translation files use up at the very least 4GB of extra space per language) While a community made translation sounds good, itd not practical, as whoever would do it would need to maintain and update it each time, and if they decide to quit its left to rot. So that will never happen in itself. Generally speaking, I can see why people would want it, but I see no benefit of having it honestly. That time is better spent fixing and updating things where its needed. Though translations would fall under Brett and give him more work 😄

you can call it "speculating", though considering other battle passes id not have them, there is no reason to think this one would. If you are talking about "incentive to buy" then you already have it, the plaque track for rewards, that is the incentive not the "extra " rewards you get after completing the pass. You can also see in the pass itself at the bottom if any extra rewards are offered so you did not have to buy all those potions. It is nice to have those extra rewards, just do not expect them to be in every battle pass.

That is not something that will be in every battle pass. Last one had it due to Darkenwald so you could stock up on more entries and soups. This battle pass does not have anything extra, whether the next one will we will have to see.

Personally speaking: I rather they discontinue and stop unity here where it is without any new levels or stone slots, simply stop there and eliminate already one form of money progress and as suggested in the first thread, add maybe a continuous, fixed unity EXP bar once you reach max level, that each time filled up gives you a fixed amount of unity tokens and does not increase stats or anything else.

@Green Storm Can you confirm? xD Better safe than sorry....
