darthBaal Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 I am an active player and I do dungeon train solo dungeons every day and I also do weekly and raids up to ET or IA charm run. I want to use honestly earned gold for pink weapon upgrades and other equipment. I want to improve to +11, for example, but I don't have a chance, because I get to 9 and then it knocks me back to +6 and 3000G in the ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ... This RNG system is defective and extremely unfair. For some, it will go up to +20 without fail for the raw materials he has gained in two weeks, for example, and others will not get more than +7. This system is extremely unfair! It should be possible to upgrade with 100% for three times the price, but the player would be sure of the progress ... As with the PTS craft, you can risk the craft or shop it, but the choice is there. Another gambling is in the case of P2W things like boxes for NCoins, Trove, etc. Some people get the maximum drop for the first time and another buys for 500 € and has no epic drop ... Here the game makes paying players gamblers and it's no different. to the game room and there to lose money with the difference that you will be let into the game room from the age of 21 and here even a child can "Play Slots", even if the game is 16+. But 16 and 17 are children. Therefore, BnS supports gambling in children ... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wrote BNS is rated 16 which is atleast far better than FIFA which is also a slot maschine but marketed to children as old as 3 years. Its a shame most governments dont care they should atleast force everygame with the ability to buy lootboxes to be rated 18. Imagine FIFA with R18 on the cover.

darthBaal Posted March 7, 2022 Author Share Posted March 7, 2022 Fifa I thought it was just an ordinary football simulator, I remember playing 08 and 09 like NHL09, but nothing could be bought there. I bought the game for € 69 and that's the end of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loot boxes do not meet the legal definition of gambling - and are therefore legal for under 18 year olds - That is the current LAW for majority of the countries. Belgium on other hand has passed a law that banned video game loot boxes and therefore NC have implemented measures that restrict real money purchase of items that are random in nature by players located in Belgium, these restricted items no longer appear in the Hongmoon Store. If you are against it, you are welcome to gather everyone who are against it and sign a petition in your country for the government to review it, exactly like Belgium did. Therefore the responsibility for the child gambling lies strictly on parents, if a parent doesn't monitor where their Son/daughter is wasting their money, then they probably have enough to not care or doing bad job monitoring their child activity online. "Saying in General not specifically to NC" If a company sees an opportunity to make money, they will take that opportunity in majority of the cases. Companies strive to maximize their profit. They follow what rules they have to follow. Not because they care about society, but because the laws insist. They break or bend them if they believe they can get away with it, If we were to remove all governmental restrictions on companies, they would quickly take advantage. Not all Employees working in such companies agree, but Companies are run by businessmen. Edited March 7, 2022 by SayhaSeer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walex Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 (edited) And that's why I didn't even +1 anything :YEP: /edit - and now imagine that you need to awaken a badge up to stage 8 in order to +1 it LUL Edited March 7, 2022 by Walex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthBaal Posted March 8, 2022 Author Share Posted March 8, 2022 (edited) The point is that gambling has also gotten into equipment upgrades and there is no alternative upgrade option. Loot boxes, Trove, etc. keep us busy, but to do something with dead PvP it's not ... Edited March 8, 2022 by darthBaal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This system is extremely unfair! it doesnt go up to +20 for anyone, 19->20 is 1% chance, even if you only need 950gx50 you're super lucky, i had 140 tries on my worst +20 the cost for 3 +20 is in the range 500k-1500k gold. The law of big numbers makes it more or less even, still there is a difference, i had 2 items cost 3k from 5->6 and pop to 10 without fail. Same for 17 taking 90 tries and 18 and 19 going below 5 tries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeralStripes Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 (edited) @darthBaal I'm sorry to hear about your bad RNG luck, the best advice I can give to most players is too only upgrade your weapon/acc/gear ONLY to AWK +6 & never fully upgrade your gems(this will give you the bonus stat effects on your AWK stage +6 acc). in Blade & Soul alot of the upgrade mechanics tend to be a wasteful goldsink & are not worth it in the long run because you will probably be replacing that gear with free event gear- just like in the [Soul Boost] event. Playing Blade & Soul & upgrading your gear- players will run into a point of diminishing returns & TBH you don't need the max highest gear in the game, you can run all content with less gear, so I recommend just sticking to AWK +6 gear & calling it a day, that is the TRUE F2P endgame gear.

The Services are only available to persons that are either: (i) at least 18 years old and competent to understand and accept these Terms for themselves; or (ii) minor users (“Minor Users”) whose use of the Services has been approved by a person with legal authority over them (e.g., a parent or legal guardian) that is at least 18 years old and competent to understand and accept these Terms for themselves (such person, a “Responsible Adult”). The following additional requirements apply to Responsible Adults and Minor Users: (a) the Minor User and their Responsible Adult must review this User Agreement together; (b) a Minor User’s Responsible Adult is liable for the Minor User’s acts when they Use the Services and is bound by this User Agreement; (c) Responsible Adults must supervise their Minor Users’ Use of the Services and inform them of the rules contained in this User Agreement.

Game has a mature rating and asks date of birth for a reason. If people are lying/bypassing they basically violated it and face account termination. But you know people never read terms yet think they know it all or draw false conclusions without doing so first. Everytime you log in and put in your pin and accept the terms you are basically agreeing and confirming to the above amongst many other things. It's why people get perma banned and get mad cause they got caught violating something that NC decided to enforce and they were the one picked on or chosen. Laws are there just whether or not they want to enforce em. Legal mumbo jumbos there to cover their arse incase some kid steals their parents credit card and racks up a fortune in microtransactions then the parent instead of accepting responsibility decides to try to go after the game company. Even major slot machine manf will make some pretty cartoony looking games that people think are trying to cator to kids but in reality they aren't they're just playing on nostalgia for adults, if kids somehow see it and grow up thinking that's cool or something well thats just an unintended side effect. Not saying theres some subliminal message or alterior motive to try to hook future generations of gamblers or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
