    I've meant to say this for a while but I always forget since ignoring is easier:
    I don't know about the others, but this blue of yours really hurts my eyes. So your posts are usually skipped. Can't you just write normally? No offense intended.
    Cheers.
     
  2. Ok. Thank-you for your feedback. I don't post a great deal in the forum - not in general areas, at least. I mostly hang back and pop up like a jack-in-the-box when an errant bottom needs slapping. The blue text colour makes it stand out a bit. I shall see if I can find a less jarring/distracting colour.

    Lol. Ho do you expect to start a match? This PvP sucks to the bones. For example, 3 years ago, the characters were with 6-7k life and 700dmg average. Now the characters are with 10k life and 3-4k dmg. When I go the arena I feel like Im playing Sniper Elite :D. Everyone can kill the opponent with ONE single shot!!! What i mean is the demmage raised up almost 10 times but life and ressistance - only twice. Thanks to the stupid designers I dont play PvP any more because Im a tank and I dont have a skill for distance fight! These characters are not designed to stand such a high dmg. If the dmg is 3-4k average, life should be 50k or so... That's why you cant start PvP my friend :), simply because noone plays it. And playing PvP is useless now... I have never seen such a kind of PvP in any other online game....

    You do realize that the server probably is not dead, it is probably only dead to you. Ever realize that everyone around you can get instant battles the entire time?

    Let me guess, you are a strong pvp player, one of the strongest on Balor?

    You are probably bugged. It is not that there are no matches. If you log on with another character, you can get instant battles. I don't know for sure, because I haven't been on Balor server, but my bet is that you are in the same boat as I am, with the pvp matchmaking bug that they keep putting off fixing.

    Just wanted to let u know, in case you haven't asked support about it. Its a bug that affects people who win a lot, not the server.

    @ Static - tried your strategy and logged with a 2nd char, a lvl 50 warrior and it still takes quite a lot of time for arena to start.On BalorPVP there is only a small window when you can find arenas, but mostly 1v1 and 3v3.The 5v5 takes quite a long time to start and 6v6..well 6v6 is history there.If they came up with this idea to stop certain players from entering arenas then they shouldve come with other ways to get glory points.I used to do around 100k / day and now i cant even make 10k due to the fact that matches never start.Still need around 2 million points to finish with the pvp skills but apparently i cant do it because of these settings.

    I dont understand why this was really needed since when i enter 5v5 with my noobaa tank who doesnt even have 25 fame points the matchmaking system puts me vs flagbearers and above.At least if you pretty much banned some chars from the pvp give them some glory points / day or something like that so they could finish they pvp tree.I've invested a lot of time and money in my char to do pvp and now i cant because of that.

    'Til this is fixed i guess ill focus on farming since i cant do anything else.Thx for that guys :/

    Well after coming on 50lvl the waiting for the arena become even longer than before in my opinion is just because a lot of people(including me) they dont like it.There is no fun anymore in arena, no skills needed is just kill or be killed (or die on exhaustion) and since from long time i read only promises from bigpoint for change i stopped playing:) Deakensang is not anymore the game that i used to like.So good luck to all who still have nerves for waiting on a change and playing.

    actually it's all oneshoot based..even if u try to create a bilanced char ( lol your pourpose was to create all bilanced char ahahaha and obviusly failed.)
    some skills are SUPER IMBA OP ( frozen sphere and explosive arrow). no more fun. u block? ok u survive. no block? u die.
    doesn't matter if u have high hp high armour high resist.. % dmg of that skill need to be lowered asap to give to arena some gameplay and fun to players.

    now leave off pvp - arena problems.

    game is boring as hell.. u want money for give us the possibilities to farm boss of your games? come on put free re-entry in boss asap ( btw u wrote in patchnotes 162 and pufff BYE BYE to this REALLY NICE FEATURE..where is now? )
    no one want to pay TO FARM..u already done a lot of money with this ridiculous feature positive just for your wallets.
    give us some fun even in pve.

    and maybe it's time to put in more uniques, more uniques in gnob, more sets of same power or u will see 99% of players run like twins.
    khalys set, mortis set. some reviews on existing uniques.

    give us the possibilities to upgrade items even over 55, what the problems with this for you? u are giving GLYPHS FOR FREE to deluxe premium users and soon 99% of players would run with all 55 items...
    actually i'm with 329kk of glyphs..i already upgraded all at 55 without your deluxe premium and i don't know how to use them, for u this is normal? where is the meaning of farm? to stack glyphs?
    put no limit to upgrade on items ( ofc limits would be the higher prices to each upgade).

    it's not hard to improve this game..

    gnob yes gnob..it's embarassing right now. same old useless stuff like years ago...
    it's a EVENT merchant npc? really?
    so easy... put in gnob ALL items / costumes / sets / event stones ( those are really important nowadays) of already passed events..it's not hard and with just this move a lot of players would be happy.
    a lot of player missed some events or maybe just started now to play and obviusly they want to have the possibility to buy some stones ( all of those HELMET STONES), to buy some old sets..they farm DRAKENS and it's FAIR to give them the possibility to buy those things.

    no more we are working on, no more it's in roadmap, no more soon... now WE WANT JUST FACTS.

    and no more release TO IMPLEMENT JUST 1 CRAPPY FEATURES like this 163.. with just removal glyphs..and nothing more new

    i'm waiting for your answer haruki on EACH of my statement..i will appreciate it

    In R163 the re-entry on boss map is not available :( once again the feature people demanded is ignored, for me there is nothing in R163 except the booring event which requires 20-30 realm per run of RCC :(

    I waited so long for this event and many others also, sure it's now more grind the map1 to enter main event map but .. look on the bright side, at least is something so-so "new" and interesting. Set also is very good, I like it. Besides, there will be 4 this year, so 4/5 set for me. :) cool

    As long as they make those changes for PvP exclusively, they can downgrade those % to 5% for what I care, we discussed that topic in this thread quite some times, you ask for nerfs, without thinking about PvE gameplay, bosses get buffed, they get more annoying to beat, PW monster's strenght scaling is already tricky to deal with for some, yet you ask for more nerfs for our toons, how in the world do you expect we keep up with the more and more powerful monsters if you guys keep asking to make our toons weaker?

    The damage mitigation is indeed something necesary for PvP, but for PvP only, they nerfed everyone and the arena remains broken, the only ones winning with the nerfs are the fatal dificulty bosses and monsters. Big Papa already said that back in the day, the numbers on our toons keep getting bigger yet what we can do with them seems the same.

    If they are going to add more useless uniques like the Untouchables/Gnob's, or non-dropping ones like Temple Guardian, Corruption or Scorn of the Dragon, all of them not being even very useful, I'd rather have them focus on a useful community desired feature. I agree with you in the part where a lot of uniques need to be reworked, not just reviewed.

    I think they should name it "Gnob's casino", or just add Gnob as a 4th Jester, considering his offers, but seriously, here's the thing, though..., I haven't been playing for a whole year, and I do wish I could get some of the older stuff from past events, but, there's a problem, pretty much all the costumes/mounts/emotes are now available for andermant in those lousy lucky spheres, even some very rare ones, so what's the point of having them in events then?, previously, some of them denoted the efforts you went through to get them, now they mean less than the 10 gold horse 'cause you can just buy them, fairy summoning wand was a sign of true luck and/or patience, now you only have to swing a few anders and poof, even the stellar gold emotes, 1st, 2nd, 3rd place, those should be exclusives, but yet again, they maimed their value, horribly.

    Now, what would be the point of, let's say, a X-mas event, if I could just run full/new moon and some others to get a constant income of drakens and buy the rewards for any event?, and take in account I'm a "new" player, there would be no point, because those concentrated solstice stars, that bunch of jewels of rage and other stuff you older players have are kind of a "handicap" that the new players will not be able to get, and they're not even that fantastic to begin with, thus not creating a huge gap between old and new players. Also, take in account those lousy spheres of whatever are handing out draken...

    We already have a lot of people complaining about the new players catching up to their big gems, killing them in the arena despite their rank and what not..., unfortunately, your suggestion would only put more salt to the wound in old players.

    Well, I think that's the point, isn't it?, the cap exists so that there's no uber players that no one can catch up to, and to mantain a certain degree of challenge inside of the game, otherwise one could upgrade endlessly and be bored to hell even when running fatal due to our equipment being off the charts, also, consider they might increase the level cap once more, so, there you will have a use for all your glyphs.

    2. Pertaining to or characteristic of an individual; personal; individual: a subjective evaluation.
    3. Placing emphasis on one's own moods, attitudes, opinions,etc.

    Even though the 90% of the entries were not funny to me either, Haruki's answer was reasonable, please, get over it.

    And let's add a bit of a rant, because, why not? :D

    I was expecting a big easter thing, considering what I read in the Wiki and forums from the last year, but we got 2 minute random costumes on the maps, and some "lovely" "offers" in the shop, best-easter-event-ever.

    I'm really starving for a really good event, not iterations with crippled rewards, if we're going to have iterations of older events, at least improve the rewards or leave them the same, I'd rather have that than "new events" like the Perils of Wasting our Time which I didn't even bother with despite being a PvE freak, and if what I'm reading about the attack on RCC event is half-true, I might have an iteration, but an iteration of me ignoring another event.

    That's all, for now... :p

    They have already said that they are no longer capable of separating skills between pvp and pve. They used to be able to do it, but apparently now it is simply too hard for them.

    All of this can be boiled down to a true lack of desire on their part. It is simply too easy to continue to regurgitate things than it is to create something useful.

    They did one little casino trick and now that is all they do. It requires effort to do something different and effort is not something they seem to put in.

    Lastly it would require listening to what players want. Go back and read the feedback of any of the "official" feedback threads and then try to find something, anything that they listened to.

    We spent 8 months giving feedback about gnob. Was any of it listened to? Of course not.

    We spent 16 months giving feedback for the moon events. Was any of it listened to? Of course not.

    Look at any of the feedback for the stellar turd events. Was any of it listened to? Of course not.

    The list goes on and on.

    Every so often they throw us a bone, but it comes with so many bad things we would have been better off without it.

    Look at the pw boss drops. We begged and pleaded for better drops. They gave it us along with so many more annoying features that it takes all the fun out doing those boss runs.

    Consider the extra ess slot. How long have we been begging for that?

    Now I would rather them be honest and simply state. "We don't care what you want or like. We are going do whatever we want, whenever we want and if you don't like it go play something else." At least I could respect that.

    I have a question which was bothering me for quite some time.Why are the uniques from the sets of lvl 1 bosses so hard to find?They are as hard to find as those lvl 3 ones even though they are way weaker than the lvl 3 ones.Ive did a lot of farming at lvl 1-2 bosses when helping others unlock those parallel worlds and i couldnt find any of those lvl 1-lvl 2 items from the boss sets of arachna, grimmag, heredur and bearach.

    Also about those boss portals that were promised but wont make it ingame in the patch 163.How about you remove the costs for portals to bosses or alter the costs and make them like 1 materi frag each?That wont even take 5 minutes of programming and can easily be updated via a fix in the same day.Why do you have to create another feature when you can simply just do this and save a lot of time?

    I helped a player do some boss runs in lvl 1 yesterday, and quite honestly it is not worth the time. You are very lucky if you get a legendary item. Sadly I am not surprised at the lousy drop rate despite their claims of "we're listening".

    Well, good thought, but there is 1 difference: the cost/effort for the first run within 1 session/with the same group.
    With their current, complex concept, you would have to do the repeatable dungeon quest (all maps) once, before you can do repeated boss runs (not sure if it would work with teleport anyway).
    If they lower the price, also the first run would be "free" - and no one would buy portals for Andermant any more.
    So, I like your idea, but I'm afraid BP might not.
