    The problem is launching with T3 and having these T1 and T2 half-ass catchup mechanics from island mats and shit. It gives people a false idea of the usual rate of progression. Not giving the added honing chance with Argos release just makes this worse. And it's obvious these decisions are...

    Dude, you need to take a pill and fucking relax. There's no secret. Make alts, sell mats. Wow, genius level strat there, huh. I already listed what I've been doing and have over 100k gold and have spent like 40 or 50k. If I had sold my t1 and t2 alts mats instead of using them to feed each other...

    That's not even close to what I'm saying. I'm not one of your dumbass drinking buddies shooting the shit over a twelve pack on the back porch. Being able to hit 1370 GS by Argos release doesn't make anyone a gamer god. I've never claimed to be any kind of master at this game. That's part of the...

    No one said that. The argument is over whether or not it's possible without spending real money. Whether you're 1370+ or not is not an indication of whether you're hardcore or casual and no one claimed it was.

    You're just floundering now. I already told you, I don't fucking care about hitting 1370 GS. Why would I? My Scouter in RU is 1425 GS. ONLY 1425 after 2 fucking years. Could have maxed him out long before now, but I don't give a shit about gearscore. I've already seen everything this game has to...

    Lol. Are you calling me a liar? I made 1345 on my main last Saturday, and I've been focused on leveling my alts and not on making gold. These are all my alts: I could have easily had more gold if I had chosen to focus on that.

    Sorry, dude, but you're wrong on this one. 1370 in time for the Argos update was absolutely attainable without spending any money. I could have done it and chose not to. Impossible for a casual, sure, but not a real gamer.

    Well, I've literally spent zero dollars on this version of the game. (Spent like $55 in RU because I needed slots for Scouter and Reaper) Getting 1370 by now isn't that difficult, nor does it require spending money. I could have easily gotten to 1370 if that was my focus. I instead spent my...

    I haven't even been focused on making gold (like Voldeth has) and have over 100k, my main is 1345, my gunslinger alt just hit 1100 this morning and my first alt account main is 1080. All I've done is sell all purple/gold engravings, all tradeable leapstones from Guardians, a couple legendary...

    A whale guild? lol Are hardcore gamers mythical creatures now? Or are people just so used to watching lazy streamers swipe/get carried by their viewers that they think that's the only way to progress quickly?

    Once you get to 1340, unless you're a whale, it's best to take a step back and just play super casually. Wait for login and event rewards to pile up, do your dailies/weeklies enough to get your weekly gold bag, and upgrade slowly or wait til we get the 20% honing boost and the other content that...

    Also, if you think AGS has enough knowledge of the game and its economy to ask for these specific changes... lol? Smilegate had to be the ones who decided what to change.

    It's possible they just moved the gold higher in the rapport, like they did for RU. I think they moved the 200g that you got for Thirain at level 2 rapport and moved it to level 3? I think his level 3 reward was 300g, and now it's 500g, but I don't remember exactly. Now, if they also removed the...

    There's currently 2 events running in RU, both that reward you for mostly just doing what you normally do. In addition to that, we currently have this: https://la.mail.ru/gsgrowth Which they do every few months. You just log in and click the buttons to get all the rewards up to your current GS.

    RU launched like a year after KR, and has always been behind them in content, and we've never had a nerfed event. If they want to limit things they just put GS reqs on what you can buy. Events are supposed to be greatly rewarding, that's their purpose. You jump through whatever stupid hoop the...

    It seems like a lot, until you realize we get a nerfed version with less rewards compared to other regions. 150 tier 3 destruction fragments per week is shit tier for an event. Events usually give most rewards in roster bound chests, and tons more mats. See the stacks of chest in my RU roster...

    As you mentioned before, there should be no gold rewards before level 50, and even then, it should be for shit bots don't do, like raids and guardians and shit. RMT's would never bother with shit beyond 50, it's much more efficient to just level a bunch of accounts to Lakebar level and farm ore...

    You clearly are clueless. One time per account rewards for the tutorial quests and welcome challenge are NOTHING for a real player. Pocket change. Even if they would attempt to do something that fucking retarded, Smilegate wouldn't allow it. How many times do I have to tell you, the fucking core...

    Changed? Nothing was changed. Are you drunk? The only reason there is gold raining down from the sky is because of the bots exploiting the tutorial rewards to make 520g every 2 hours per bot. Those quests are part of the game. When they were added to RU when Season 2 launched they had the same...

    Lol? Did you miss the part where the vast majority of the profit from this game comes from selling gold to players? If gold is easy to get in game it negates the base game design. The only reason it's "easy" to get right now is from the RMT bots flooding the servers and inflating the prices far...

    Leaving the gold reward for the tutorial quests was a bonehead move, AGS and Smilegate are equally to blame. Having over 1k gold when you hit level 50 (or 520g at level 27) is completely unnecessary. The only reason I can think AGS would do this was to give free players gold to sell to the...

    Typically newer classes are better designed than the original launch classes. Also, the game has changed a ton since KR launch, and IMO the newer classes tend to be designed with the newer content in mind.

    It's easier and simpler than that. Simply do what RU did when these fucktarded tutorial quests were introduced. Remove the gold reward. Bam, done. Took them like a week to notice the problem and a few days after that to get Smilegate to shit out a patch. Yes, you'll still have bots to farm...

    Counters were what Smilegate put in the game so they could move away from the "back attack meta." I was like, lol, it's not meta, it's how you designed the fucking game. Try breaking the habit of over a year of staying away from a boss's face and dashing to avoid charges, which are now blue. I...

    The best part of the game is when you have to stop mid-conversation with an npc to make your character do a specific emote. Talk about on rails. More like puppet strings.

    Yeah, it was probably changed in one of the big updates since Season 2 launched. People tended to skip Tortoyk and Smilegate HATES when anyone skips any of their snoozefest quests, so they like to force you to do shit. That's why Chaos dungeons now require you to complete the last quest of the...

    Yes, you must be right. @Voldeth and I must be imagining the huge health increase. I guess playing the other versions for years has detrimental effects on your brain.
