2 Suggestions in 1!

[Zetochii]

Hello beautiful people of InfinityMu.

I had 2 suggestions I would like to put out there for GM's to maybe consider

First: Draconite Hunter Event:

The Problem:

So the Draconite Hunter event is a awesome concept, however, I do have one gripe about it. The idea is to allow non-uber players to get uber gear without donating. The issue is that with it being on Server 3 and 4 is that people with Uber sets don't give those of us who don't have them the chance to hunt for the Draconite. They kill us and steal the loot.

The Solution:

How about putting like 5 of each monster on a non-pvp server(1 or 2). I'm not saying on both server but just one of them. That will give those of us who don't have a chance to hunt Draconite due to being killed by people with Ubers, a chance to actually hunt without being pk'd all the time.

Server 2 would be great for this, as it is fairly active, meaning that people on that server might be more willing to take part in the event, but not have to deal with the PvP aspect of the hunt. Some of us aren't big PvPer's so being on a PvP server like 3 or 4 is not appealing to us, and without Uber sets we can't farm Draconites due to being killed all the time by people with them.

Suggestion 2:
Season 11 weapons/Prometheus Shield:

Problem:

This one is a little more controversial. I've talked to quite a few GM's, even posting here on the forums about it, but after spending quite a bit of the day talking to people in my guild who have been playing since the S11 patch went live, as well as, random people around server 2, 3, and 4, I've come to the conclusion that the S11 weapons and Prometheus Shield(I'm sure among other items) Doesn't drop in LoT. I myself have spent the last week and a half hunting in LoT every day for 6+ hours and haven't once seen a S11 weapon, or the Prometheus shield.

I'm not sure if this is how it's mean't to be, but considering that the armor drops I would assume it's all mean't to drop in LoT/DS6/Kilima 7, however, that is not the case.

Solution:

If It's not mean't to drop, maybe make it so we can get the weapons/shield but with like a 10% drop chance? If it is mean't to drop, but isn't actually doing so, maybe raise the drop rate just a bit for them. Now I'm not saying to make them drop all the time for give them some kind of super high drop rate like 80% or something, but maybe like 15-20% drop chance when killing mobs, doing DS6, or killing Kundun in Kilima 7.

I hope you will take my suggestions into consideration.

Thank you for reading,

Well about the draconite problem we need to accept the fact
that it was meant to put in pvp now.

You can even hunt even you not uber. If you know your the position of
the current boses you can w8 for them BEFORE they came out.
If you got killed find other spot.

Also find someone to accompany you by buffs. About duel Idk bec i did not try xD

Did you know the first implementation of draconite hunting?
all servers have it from server 1 to 4.
But i think the draconites was over populated back then.
We can even finish 120 draco in 3 days by hunting and at the same time buying.
And I did agree on that idea that it has to be remove. I dont want the server
lost our FO's and semi ubers.



-----------------

Ancient Items

We also need to accept the fact that everything cannot be hunted.

Yes I feel you. I myself also hunt prometheus shield for 1 wk from LoT,NPC,Barrack, etc. and still no luck.
So just considered them rare and can get via donate.

About s11 items. You can activate the whole option of the ancient set if you used 5 items.
So the need of the weapon is not really important.
But if you aim for more ancient by adding sets well sorry about that xD :nuhnuh:.

Try to find some solution regards to ancient options.

Goodluck Sir.
BTW Im happy now how the game supposed to be with regards to what on your proposing.
But still I like your suggestion about ancient items.

I don't think you understand what I mean though. It's impossible to hunt Draco if you're not uber, and party's are a no go because nobody wants to share them either. Also I think it's unfair that normal ACC S11 stuff doesn't drop in LoT because of the fact it's impossible to get it by hunting draco and some of us can't afford to donate. In my personal opinion the fact that hunting Draco is only allowed on PvP servers makes it kinda pointless for those of us who can't survive an attack from a uber player. Not everyone has the money to donate to a server.

Anyways, this can be closed because obviously my suggestions aren't going to change anything, even though I think a lot of players would agree with me.

It is possible to hunt draco sir even without buff and not uber (just semi) you can kill boss with less than 10 to 15 secs. before the killers came out.
I suggest you need to know how the game works first.

TBH i can kill uber set with my semi uber... not all but some..

We can move Draconite Hunt from s3 and s4 to s1 and s2 but it will end up as a fight of 10 ppl on the same mob hoping to do the last hit on it to loot the draconite.
And btw...mostly BKs in ubers are dangerous. You can survive them with good pots and full defense mode on a SM if u get swell and u teleport and Ice them so they cant get near you. Use your SM skills and find a tactic to fight them.

Also i think it's the right time to change the spawn location of the mobs again since people already learnt where they appear. Will work on that these upcoming days.

About the drops we will recheck them but im pretty sure they are there with a low % rate.
Let's hear some more oppinions about the PvP in Draconite Event. Would you guys like to have them in PvP Servers or Non Pvp servers? or a mix ? server 1 and server 3 (1 pvp 1 non pvp) ?

 

[Zetochii]

I've be completely fine with doing 1 on a non-pvp server and 1 on a pvp server. As far as the drops in LoT/DS/K7 goes, I'm just going by what the general community has told me. I've talked to quite a few people today and they say that they've hunted LoT since the patch and have not seen any of the S11 weapons or Prometheus shield once.

 

[Scarlette]

About S11 items, it was made for special Draconite Hunter event's reward,
we didn't call it S11 items, we call it Draconite sets,
it was not supposed drop at LoT either because its special but Admin decide to make some sets available drop at LoT (Perseus, Ra Creation and Seth) but without Weapon except Andromeda's Bow

I hope you understand~

 

[Zetochii]

Well yeah I understand that, but if they're not going to be uber like the ones you can get from Draconite then why does it hurt to have the regular weapons drop in LoT? It's not like they'll drop Uber and it would give some of us the chance to have a decent set prior to having the uber versions of those sets.

 

[Heruvim]

Draconites were removed from non pvp servers to stop farming and making it more challenging, but i do agree with you Zetochiii, that there should be some of them on non pvp server, though not the same amount, and as Dreams said, it will end up with people trying for the last hit so they can loot, but atleast you know that you do have a chance.

 

[Abesta]

If with such events rich people will get richer, I am strongly against it. New comers must take more benefits from this event than the guys whose already completed their gear. But having this event on non-pvp server is out of fun. So better to have this event in Pvp server and plus maybe half of the spawns in Non-Pvp servers. But still, in such of a events mostly the guys whose have better gear-better damage wins more.

 

[Zetochii]

You're 100% right Abesta, the richer guy will always get the loot, because that richer guy has a uber set and can 1 shot those of us who actually need the draconite to be able to do anything. Maybe putting 7 on a PvP server(3 or 4) and like 4 or 5 on a non-pvp server(2 would probably be best because it's more active). It almost feels like punishment for those of us who don't have a uber set because there's little to no hope of getting draconite on S3 or 4.

 

[Abesta]

But never forgot the thing that strategy is coming first. I been played as FO user for years and I know hoe it goes but yet I won Pk Monthly Winner Event twice in a row with my so called poor gear. So give it a shoot with your own strategy, maybe you can do something. Anyways, as I said my previous opinion, if there is enough players like you then adding this event in Non pvp server should be discussed.

 

[Flippy]

We had it in all servers at the begining, ppl farmed it fast and easy.
We left it running only on pvp servers since it's a pvp server afterall.
You can always ask a friend to help out and buff you or come with you hunting

Teamork ! Don't go on the lone wolf path
And as Abesta told you, it's all about strategy
With a SM till someone tries to kill u, u can teleport away and kill the boss, teleport back and take loot. You can Ice them, slow them etc.
