Feedback Dragan Event - June 2016

Well this challenge has to be done in groups, so you can share the buffs and take down the trees more easily.

Other modes than Normal are impossible. Trees are exploding randomly and are granted speed and teleportation buffs.

 

Anders & Drakens aplenty - best part of this event. Some of the Andermant went on stones, revives, etc. but still. I didn't sweat it much, and I ended up with 4 tier 2 and 4 tier 1s (been playing on-and-off), but done a great deal of achievements. No spider mount, tho (a good few tens of runs). Gave up on the silly weapon and didn't care for minis this time.

 

Mini #2, yes trees on west and south west sometimes does not drop.
Guild mate and tried to kill them on the road not on the bridge. They drop since then.

 

The cloak Dragan's Battleworn Cloak is shown when wearing Chameleon skin. This is a feature or a bug ?

 

Is it true that the weapons have a tier system and the basic one has less dmg? If only we knew from the start. Also, there's a chance for a bugged map in mini #2, without the poison and no option to click on the bucket/well or chest, only the statues.

 

The said cloak shows through all costumes that used to hide them. Your question stands, though.

I'm assuming you're talking about the Dragan Incensed 2H. We got to know pretty late, but if you read through here, you'll see that the (hardly-ever dropped) 4 parts = tier 2 weapon (indeed, lesser stats) and then if you manage to get 3 elemental stones of the same type (heard it's from RE chests, but I personally have not gotten any or heard from friends/guild that they have - so again terribly drop-rate) you can make the tier 3 shown, with an added effect and resist. of the element of the stones.

 

And higher damage and % damage.

 

Latest event Daily Quest A Diabolic Family is misleading. It says "defeat 200 enemies in Dragan's Excavation Site" ... but actually the real destination is Iron Forest.



All the challenge bugs from the previous Dragan event have not been fixed ... and on top of that more bugs were created.
Some were mentioned in the previous posts ... and Jullov is still nowhere to be found in the Wild Forest at Night. His chest is there but he is not ... therefore the chest can't be opened.

 

Yeah, thought that was implicit enough, since all the "tier 2 has lesser stats" .

EDIT - forgot to mention when giving feedback, but Sir Kendrick's quest has been a flop this time. 40 Draken and a legendary item? For all that collecting effort? Come on, that is basically a Hard boss kill's worth of loot (as if the event dailies weren't silly enough).

 

Cant wait for the next event to do the spider set and get my self more drakens to buy the Darkness set for the achievement and the pig. I got the life keeper yesterday since it would help me more then the pig so yeah this event was very good for me. Now i have 150k blues to burn on fatal maps to find some good 2h exos to combine really liked the event even with the low drop rates on uniques.

 

Nice farming, man! Congrats.

 

Here is my opinion of the event, now that it is over.

Overall, it is a nice, multivariate event. I like the several options that it offers and the addition of a second "final boss", as it enhanced the quality of the event by providing greater variety and choices. The inclusion of daily quests was interesting, albeit the rewards could have been somewhat better considering the time these required to be completed. Albeit they are both useless to me, I enjoyed the inclusion of two new sets (three, counting the old set for sale) into the game, as these will greatly improve variety and combinations. Having just a handful of good items/sets is a major letdown for a MMORPG game, so any improvement on that is greatly positive, in my opinion at least.

The drop rate of the uniques from the final bosses was OK, assuming that the event will be repeated in a reasonable time frame. I was barely able to make one of the sets over the course of the event, which is logical for me. After all, if everyone was to make both of the sets within a few days, there would be nothing to look for in future instances of the event. What I could not understand is the greatly uneven drop rate of boss items. For example, I swear that I could have made the helmet three times over before I was able to make the boots. When Dragan had a guaranteed drop each turn, it made sense as it was a means to prevent players from getting the set too soon. Without a guaranteed drop though, I fail to see why the drop rate of unique items was so uneven. It should be balanced between all three items for each boss.

A somewhat lesser problem for me but, I suspect, major problem for others was the inexistent drop rate of the weapon parts. I am not sure if the map bosses were dropping the weapons parts to begin with - neither I or any of my friends found any parts at all, except from the guaranteed part found in the first map. If that was not a bug and there was a slight chance of actually getting weapon parts, please do be more reasonable with the drop rates.

My only complain is that major problems that were identified in the test server (map change bug, quest log bug, etc.) found their way into the final release. The occassional bug is understandable in a game that was originally made to run within browsers and is based on this programming language, but there is no excuse for ignoring serious and obvious bugs that are being reported and push them into an official release.

Just my two pennies.

 

R168 got me a Blazing Inferno portal. Compensation for the bugged ones before? If so, I got only 1, instead of 2, but that's not the point (map's hard AF anyway).

Thing is, when I clicked it, I could see a window with possible rewards. And guess what? Sargon set lv50! Wow, so tell me again how the set didn't drop from Summoned Sargon in Castle Ravencaw Hard because the set has not yet been configured for the highest level (as if the presence of the Sargon Lucky Sphere wasn't an obvious enough indicator that the set IS in fact lv50-ready).

But OFC we get this excerpt in the event's FAQ:

"Is there a chance to get any items from the set Sargon's Terrifying_Armor from the Summoned Sargon the Terrible?

No, unfortunately not. The set pieces are currently not available for level 50 yet. Only for level 40 and level 45, therefore they have not been included in this event."

I'm sorry, but that's downright lazy and incompetent. GG... GG... I can only wish I can get a job that's ridiculous enough to pay me to do nothing or just do the job poorly. Maybe I'll sign up @ BP .

 

Hello

I just would like to say i liked very much Dragan event (new release, i didn't knew the old) for me that was the best event and i hope we'll see again in september or october to can continue the sets.

Just 3 improvements could give this event awesome :
1 - Increase drop rates at boss
2 - increase drop rates for the Dragan weapon (i farmed the 60 map all the event and had no part, only the first than everybody have). It could be fair to give us a chance to have this weapon
3 - decrease the price of Dragan access, 2500 andermant for normal access is a little bit expansive regarding the drop rates. Maybe 1000 could be a good price.

Thank you very much for reading
