TheNineTailedFox Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Hi, This anti-class RNG is driving me a little bit insane.. especially with Hujikar. I've been farming there for an hour on my level 42 destro and burned all my keys on weapon chests. And ofcourse, I ended up with multiple weapons for every class except for one axe (which means I still don't have it). The worst part of this is that I have to solo it over and over. The place is simply abandoned.. I know NC wants to make this game challenging but imo, this isn't challenging at all. This just takes a lot of time. Using Brilliant Moonwater Key is not going to help because I'll need to get past the Brightstone weapons after which is even worse than Hujikar. I'm sure I'm not the only one with this problem. If NC wants more players, they really should change these kind of things because it just kicks newcomers away. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulsHunter Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 My personal choice: I used it at Hujikar, stuck at Brightstone Ruins, but no regrets. You earned more farming brightstone than hujikar. I only fought Hujikar daily because its fun to challenge it solo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxxAoi Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 I noticed that stacking the chests helped me getting the weapon I want easily instead of opening them every after kill. This goes for other drops like essences too. I joined the Radiant Ring and the Merry Potters guilds so I was able to create keys. The diamond pouches also helped me to gain gold faster because of the attributes from the gems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brand X Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 The story line quests now give that weapon I thought. Also, last time I was around that range, by the time I got to the quest for it (without skipping ahead to it) I was ahead on the levels enough to solo it (took awhile, duo made it so much faster).

No it gives you a chest which is still RNG. 3 hours ago, TheNineTailedFox said: Hi, This anti-class RNG is driving me a little bit insane.. especially with Hujikar.

I went through the same I had to buy keys to get that weapon I had like 4 sets of every weapon. But anyways you should be careful with posts like this. You don't wanna run into one of those hardcore fanbois that don't know what sun looks like and compare this game to ancient dead games and saying how bad it was back in the day and how easy we are having it now.

Ncsoft recently tempered with main quest rewards - you get weapons for your hongmoon weapon just doing main quest, you don't have to farm bosses/dungeons for it. And also survey now give accesories you need for your hm accesories. Create new alt and you will notice those changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a weapon but a chest of weapon which gave me weapon for other class. My alt is lvl 46 but I haven't seen any quest that gives you a weapon. I know that they give you accessories but you don't get weapons you still have to farm for them which is not a big deal but Hujikar or whatever it's name is, makes you to rage quit.

Most likely you finished quest (that gives hujikar weapon now) before ncsoft changed prize for it. And I remember quest that gives you hujikar chest, but what I'm saying is - new players who started recently get hujikar weapon without farming.

No you either did it before the QoL patch a couple weeks ago or you're currently doing the blue daily that does give the chest for killing him. A main quest line gives you that weapon now.

821031_1452549945 Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 even if it gave u chest u get 3 moonwater keys for 3 purple weapons that u need from this area.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arken Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Hmm, I lvled a WL just past weeks and I also got a RNG chest from the mains quest, even thou what it says on the weapon description makes you think you'll be getting the weapon you need itself. So unless this week things got changed, you still get a RNG chest. ... 17 hours ago, SoulsHunter said: My personal choice: I used it at Hujikar, stuck at Brightstone Ruins, but no regrets.

This is what I've also done... and now I'm 'stuck' at Brightstone, making around 2g a run, usualy with a few 50lvls almost carring the group. 5-15 minutes per run, making 2g?! It seems ok to me.

DreUd Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 I just started playing and me and an assassin farmed it together, it took me 8 kills and we were channel hopping to make it faster. He basically killed it for me by staying invisible the whole time. For me personally it wasn't that bad. I read that the best place to use my moonwater keys is the purple dungeon weapons. Also if you join a guild your buddies can help you kill him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sefer Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 I found the RNG is geared only towards making your class specific item have a low chance of dropping. Make an alt that lvls the same as your main, make it the easiest class to lvl rapidly, i made an alt simply for essences and lockboxes so that I could get my class items without wasting 100 keys and needing to actually buy crap keys from the real money store, I will not be forced into buying their "premium" key shit because I am being heavily forced into doing so, instead I will play the system and get my classes gear easily. You could also find someone of similar lvl and trade each others class gear to one another, as once again, your odds of getting every class item but your own, is equally higher than getting your actual classes gear. Don't believe me? Roll 10 or even 100 alts, go to the stalker wheel at lvl 7, open 100 boxes and count how many times your class specific weapon appeared as opposed to all the other classes. Notice anything? you will have 5-10x more of all other weapons. THAT is how NCsoft is pushing their premium keys, they have rigged the machines like casino slot machines, literally its something like Class Specific Item: 5% chance. Others: 95% chance. There is a variable that acts first in the calculation, that variable is literally: 5% chance your class? or 95% other. If and when it states other, then the next variable goes off to equally distribute all the other class items as a chance to receive. Seriously, get a friend whos opposite class and swap items, or make an alt and save your keys, you won't be forced to buy premium keys this way, don't let them cheat you.

Only one problem with this idea. Locked weapon boxes are not tradeable and the weapons that they contain are not tradeable in all of the circumstances where you would want to do this. Where the weapon is tradeable it is almost always available for purchase on the marketplace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zedonia Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 As someone said earlier: You dont have to beat that boss even once for your weapon because you get free special keys and 1 chest trough a quest. There are only 2 weapons a new player will have to farm: The first from the wheel (if he's lucky, someone will give it to him for free because he wont have enough money to buy it from the market) and one of the purple weapons for profane because you only get 2 keys while you need 3 weapons. It is way easier now as it was in the beginning so its not even a problem that you dont have people around who can farm the boss with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
821031_1452549945 Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 u get 3 100% (i lvled alt after patch from 0-50) u get first one at around lvl 36 if i remember correct (in case some outlvled that before patch) so moonwater area should not be a problem at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
