Feedback (New) Full Moon Event

Hello, this is my feedback:
I have 2 toons I play often (DK and mech).
DK shield is nothing compare to the "old" shield. The old one was REAL shield, this one is just a secondary weapon.
Sorry, but every DK uses 2hand to farm and REAL shield to tank, this in not useful in any set.
Bloodmage for most DK is almost impossible solo (due to the regeneration and DK cannot fight far away).

Mech, old shield could be useful in pvp or in some maps, because "old" shield was real shield, this shield has even critical dmg (useful for other class, but not much for mech).

Few unique drops (nothing for me yet).

The only positive thing about this event is the dranken... otherwise, I am sorry to say that, but you developer spoiled what was one of the event I like the most.

PS I forgot, many people were happy about the autopick up of items (golden cups) for event progress and .... no autopick up.
It looks like when people are happy about something, you (developers) like to spoil this happiness

 

completed event and not a single unique drop. all old items that I had saved now useless as cant craft with the new ones (got 1 item from chest on progress). only plus for me was I got the cursed amphorae and dropped the wolf that I didn't have for the bag

 

This is a disaster.
Unique drop-rates are close to 0. ...that last chest on the progress bar...
No more tank builds for new DKs. DKs are melee not ranged fighters , they can't survive with that book of yours.
Another bad thing about this is the new Qaizah style stats for low lvls...
Those items are a game changer on lower lvls. Twinks will love them.
I mean... you can barely get a torso with 10% increased dmg, on low lvls, and you release a belt with that?
I can't believe your generous hearts made you release a weapon with ~200% weapon damage + ~50% increased dmg.
Your poor "mission impossible" dragan weapon is crying right now.
And what's with that crazy healing for the Bloodmage?
...*sigh*...

 

Agreed, still no unique drops and every quest I've completed has rewarded me with realm fragments! Yay! Spend a fortune in essence protecting What's-her-name and get realm frags. Well that was worth the effort. Spend further thousands to get ess for Blood moon and the reward...is more realm frags. Oh joy.

 

R.I.P. D.K., new edits and new patchs killing dk day by day

 

Really have to agree with all previous posts decrying the sad state of DK shields from this event. Used to be that events gave the players a shot at unique ( or at least good event related) equipment that would positively enhance your character stats. Now these items are relegated to being just so much more melt material. A better way could/should have been made to keep the overall feel of event equipment as close to original as possible without making them unrecognizable. If you want to add base stat lines do so but move all the stats that made them unique to the enchantment section.
All that being said, I still like playing the event. 1 suggestion would be for mini-bosses in map2 to drop shining silver essences as part of their loot drop or add more neat amphorae that would do the same.

 

i only got 1 unique from the whole event... and that is from the 5k progress box.... tier 0.. I am just curious whether the pre 189 gears are "friends" with those of the post 189..... The stats looks different. Should I just melt the tier items and save spaces ? This continuity of this event is EPIC failure.

You really spoilt the best remaining event.

 

i agree to almost everything u said, but to let u know im a DK and i did entire event solo, and imo bloodmage is fairly easy to kill. and im not even a strong DK

 

with previous event I was able to kill Bloodmage in lvl 3 solo (after many ess). This time sometimes I have difficultis in lvl 2 ... maybe my dk is very nooby

 

You guys of had awful luck in the event. I have gotten 4 uniques without the chests. The drop rate seems to have been reduced, but it was very high before. In last event I got 4 uniques in a row from vargolf wolf. There always is going to be people complaining because it isn't exactly the way they want things to work. I am sick of hearing about how this game is falling apart. This game is in dip right now. If you played since the beginning of the game you would notice this game goes up and down. The only main thing I am not happy with is support, its just became awful and will get back to you but won't solve the problem and blames it on you then ignores you after.

 

You could be right about the fact that probably in earlier event the unique drop rate was "maybe" too high.
But:

- Let's take example using a shield. Before (until last event) every item was tier 1 (even unique drops in lvl 3 map) and it means you had to collect 4 tier 1 to craft a tier 2... then again 4 tier 1 for the second tier 2... then again...and again... and finally when you had 3 (tier 2) and 4 (tier 1) you could craft tier 3. Total 7 shields in your inventory. Same thing for the other items for the event. Set like this took lot of space into inventory and it took 2-3 event to complete the set (and people do not only have items just for this event). So the fact that the drop rate was "higher" it was not bad idea.

- Let's talk about unique in this event. Most of people agree that "old" unique were much better. Those new unique are BAD.

- As user of this game, I have the right to give my opinion. Developer and other DSO team can listen what is my opinion or can ignore it... just unhappy users normally quit the game. In the end I think it is their interest to keep people happy

 

-You are right how the unqiues have gotten worse, but this mainly applies to dk and mech. To point out that now my my main is my dk, so I am trying not to be biased about this event. For rangers and mages this actually was an improvement. I like though the amulet for my dk now. I got a tier 4 one with the help of a friend and my hp went up over 2k. I want the old shield back. I am hoping they are going to keep their word of giving a replacement shield in the future, but how often to they go against what they say or completely do the opposite thing of what the majority want(never will make everyone happy).

-I don't know how many full moon events this is been going on, but I would like the Vargolf wolf to drop draken again. Draken was already hard to obtain.

 

New moon event has already many items with high critic, so I hoped full moon could be more "resistance/tank".
I do not want to sound "negative" but an amulet that makes the life to go up 2k (for tank) it is not so good, maybe when you are low lvl, but at lvl 55 2k is almost nothing.

About the dranke, I agree with you, it would be nice to have them back again

 

It was a gain of 2k hp from previous amulet. The amulet itself probably gives 6k+ hp.

 

the new blood rune items set is good for lower levels, but the drop rate is very very low i didnt get any from vargulf or the bloodmage in many rounds done u should make the drop better

 

This is my feedback in images for nerfed items, so the new items with lv 55 base are worst than the older one with no base, now this is so nice from BP. only the new chain is better. How about the Karabosa? i think they will ruin that boring event if they not update properly that set.

 

i wish u wouldn't have to take so many months to enter Bloodmoon

 

The mace is worth considering if you are 1H+shield and going to use the old shield (which means you probably have the black warlord set). Consider using the new adornment and use pristine core transfer crafting to turn the mace into at least a 3x increased damage on this item mace and the adornment into at least a 3x critical hit value % on this item (ideally 4). The mace has essentially the base stats of an 1H axe, and you'll have some set bonuses to play around with, and it looks like you can get about 20, and possibly a lot more draken cores a month if you heavily farm the bloodmage with a group - I got about 20-25 just going for progress on my two characters, mostly solo.

 

I got two unique bows in the end, but the stats were half of the one I currently have so they got melted down, which is a pity because I have a pile of uniques in my inventory that I was saving to craft. Incidentally, I really don't understand the 50+ gear stats. tell me I have 317 damage and 1742 crit hit and I get it, but 174 damage and 881 crit hit -plus 40% increased crit hit on this item and 9.9% crit damage.... well basically I'm gonna keep upgrading my old stuff I think. Oh, and pristine core transfer crafting - you what?

 

I was in the last new full moon the unique drops from the boss are very low and the uniques from mini bosses that drop the old set of Varwulf dissapeared....
