    Hello.
    Thank you for transferring my video. Carabossa became a bit more interesting, the release itself fixed quite a few mistakes - also good. I would like the color of the icons of unique items to be different.If you add keys to the amphora, as a prize from the bosses. That will be very good. To get the keys is unrealistically difficult.


    Greeting

    Again, you're coming from the perspective of a true end-gamer who's been farming Inf 1/2/3 for months at least. Fresh Lvl55 struggle with Painful (I can farm scaling dungeon Painful w/o essence, Extraordinary is slow but doable on white essence, but with my low resistance & armor, no way can I efficiently farm [or even survive] Fatal) … I need multiple revives soloing Grimmag with purple / red essence.

    I get approximately 1 legendary drop per hour on a painful scaling dungeons. Nothing useable, yet.

    I did one random (3+1) craft of Tier 0 / Tier 1 exos --> crap random equipment type (wasn't either of the types I put on the workbench) legendary with no gold lines. How many random low Tier exo crafts will I have to do to get a leg with even one gold line? (Of course a single craft isn't statistically significant, but the way you tell it, everyone crafts perfect items practically every time.)

    Do I need to craft using Tier 4/5/6 items, which I can't drop because I'm not strong enough to solo farm those difficulty modes anyway???

    Bottom line, I need inherited green-->blue-->exo-->gold crafting, because I'm not going to drop or random craft any useful leg at the difficulties I can tackle.

    BP is, yet again, making it more difficult for weaker players to improve … unless they spend cash on gems and/or get carried by stronger players.

    Tell me I'm wrong and that your guildmates were sub-level 55 or fresh lvl 55 and yet were able to jump to 4/4 gold lines in a day.

    Or tell me how the full 4/4 gold end-gamers are going to keep this game alive, all by themselves, without new players sticking around long enough to provide fresh blood.

    You are now in the same situation of any player, we have all had to go through all the levels and difficulties, you are not doing things on a harder way than any other player did, but you now have tonics/physics that increase your stats by a lot, you have facilities that many other players didn't had in past times. You can now get easier a (quick) mount without waiting for an specific event and no need to spend anders on it.
    Now with a single carried run in high difficulty you can practically equip with goldlines and good bases without the extremely luck needed before and not using workbench. Before the current release it was not possible.
    They have lowered the price of items in PW and some events by a lot.
    For example, the typical noob that asks for help in forum for a run in q7 inf4 and buy the weapon, he will collect the necessary frags easier and faster than before the R214, and doing the run he will get better items than before the R214 so probably x3/x4 goldlines without having to use workbench, 1 run= equiped with tier 7/8 goldlines, weapon bought and probably soon crafted, don't need to go specific Qs to get the specific cores anymore.

    It's not true that new players have a harder time growing up now. I do not know what else you want to ask, for noobs it will never be enough...

    Edit: Forgot to mention now you can buy HP potions with gold and melt value of all items are increased, so is easier to lvl up your gear.

    You are totally doing this wrong.
    You should not even start crafting until You have the full set of T7 Default Unique gear on Your character.
    When that happens, Fatal should not be a problem to You anymore.

    Next thing is to find or Craft a 3x Gold line Weapon.
    After that things will come naturally to You.

    You're saying the only way to progress in the game is to be carried :(

    No, but I did runs in Q6 map1 Inf2 (At that time I was making the ranks in mode 2/3) with noob equipment to try get the ring in the past and if you do this now you will get better items with probably goldlines without using workbench as many other players had to do in the past.
    Before R214 even being carried 1 run you would have gotten none or few items that were worth to use in workbench.
    Now if you are carried 1 run you will get so many gold lines and probably done items without needing the workbench.
    Of course if you are going to farm solo, you will take more time, even so it will be less time than a player who did it solo before the R214.
    Game is easier and plenty of facilities for newbies nowadays.
    The player who know how to play the game to be efficient is not having any problem. And of course in 1 day you can improve much more than before.

    Blackborg new moon event drop uniques again. rest drop in this event are plain weak anyway. and it took them only 3 months to fix it.

    EDIT

    i liked a lot old colors. dont change it.
    but you can change pw drops . i need more unis to melt. but i need to sell everything to craft. but craft is toilet aswell.
    crafting is even worse. 2x 2x 2x 2x pink items enchament transfer doesnt workkkkkk !!!!!!! its uber garbage.
    2-3 hours farming inf2 3 modes to try craft one thing. why. its not even platinum.
    right now i feel in game i waste time more than money. no fun at all.

    on offical announcment there is stated that next release is all about bugfixes. but wht you change game icons ?? is this some kind of joke ?

    fix bugs fix drops. fix gameplay. i tell you again . start fresh account, and you will encounter ton of bugs byyourself.

    i have no idea what is our community manager thinking. but he have ranger account and he probably farms. but he never noticed one annoying bug when you are close to mobs and player just cant hit closeby mobs. this is on live and testserver.
    every day i play less and less this game. because i found something better. where drops are insane. so insane some head will explode :D
    and im vaaling mortis ring on first knight only when i come to do dailys. there is no ring for me.

    Yes, unless you want to spend 2 years not moving anywhere, or only very slowly. I did that and it was waste of time. You need to play high tier dungeons to get high tier items, because you need high base values and higher chance to get multiple enchantments.
    And you need to be carried many times, because the chance that you get a 3/4 or 4/4 GOOD goldlines legend is significantly higher in infernal 3 and 4, but it's not like you get such item in every run.

    I suppose that even for the random junk crafting you need high tiers in order to have a higher chance for more goldlines, because you have a higher chance for goldlines in dropped items if they are high tier items; and if you combine random junk of tier 1, you only get tier 1 junk result.

    No, definitely not. In fact, I my self have progressed pretty much by my effort. The only time I have ever asked help was to get my Tier 6 Q7 weapon because I was not able to do it solo or with a group at that time.

    It took me about three weeks of farming normal maps of Desert to get to the point I can solo Painful maps (We are not even talking about bosses).

    My first Leader board season as a level 55, I did only Grimmag map 1 and map 2, because at that time I have not completed killing Grimmag. My guild wanted to help me, but I was adamant to do the challenges by my self. I enjoyed doing the boss challenge by me, so I didn't want any help on completing the PW quests, but of course I grouped up with the others for other things.

    I crafted Tier 0-1 blues with 1x gold lines and slowly upgraded them to level 60 and then I was able to solo Painful bosses. When the second LB season started, I completed all PW quests and did LB runs in Painful mode including bosses.

    Then I crafted Tier 0-1 Pinks with 2x gold lines and the third LB season I was able to complete both solo and group Leaderboards all 9 maps to gold on Excruciating mode.

    During that season, I have also gathered enough materi fragments and I have asked help from a friend to kill Herald T6 for me to get the Q7 weapon. With that weapon, I got 9k damage and was able to do some Fatal runs. This is also when Dragan happened, and I went with my guild to kill Dragan Painful to Fatal and I was able to equip Dragan T1-T3 gear.

    Fourth LB season is when I was able to save Materi fragments to buy my full T6 set. By this time, I was doing Fatal runs, I equipped all T6 uniques. My guild was strong enough to do group runs (hard but we managed to kill T6 bosses to buy equipment). Also the second Dragan event occurred and I was able to upgrade all my Dragan gear to T6. This is when I had a full set of T6 equipment on my character and soloing Fatal bosses was no issue at this point.

    Fifth LB season was when I manage to craft all 3x golden line gear and transferred them into my Uniques. With these I managed to solo all Infernal I bosses.

    And now, I am at my sixth LB season and I have now crafted all 4x golden line gear, transferred them into the Uniques and I am running Infernal II and III PW bosses on a regular basis with the ability to solo any Infernal IV boss when required.

    Having said that, with the 214 update, You can now skip Four seasons (about 8 months) that I went through in the beginning and now jump directly to fatal/infernal I mode with a bit of help from your guild. In fact, our guild has some new members who got to level 55 within the last few weeks and now already soloing Fatal maps. It is really what You would like to do. You can spend 8 months like I did trying to solo Yourself all the way through, or get some help and skip that.

    What are we playing the same game ? From random craft i mafe 4 x 76 weapon yesterday and thats junk for me ?
    Are u trying ?
    I can literary make a character who just hits lv 55 into 30k+ dmg for a week, if he has dragan set
    They lowered materi fragments, they made gold lines to drop even more on higher difficulties, inf1 and above, they added buffs that give crit adn crit dmg ?
    Where is the harder that u speak of ?
    No i dea why ander drop was lowered, im still fine with them tho 5-7 k a day

    let's not pretend you can so easily craft strong things
    yes, it's easier than before( because now the most powerful lines are platinum lines and gold lines are just a step towards platinum lines) but it's not like a walk in the park

    i did get some good random crafts, but after thousands of tries
