Maybe I am in the minority here and just crying like a dumb nerd... but making all Witch belts temporary seems like a big mistake to me. I only wanted two things from this event. The ring and a 6+ stat belt. I was actually excited to practice and get good at doing those jump quests and earn tokens and try my luck with the pseudo chaos scrolls.... Now, I literally have no motivation to participating in this event for more than 1 minute every 8 hours. (Enough for 1 Gauntlet pumpkin box for that ring by the end of event) I know why the Attack belt was made temporary, because it would completely overshadow all belts from the upcoming Dojo. But the Dojo blackbelt comes with +5 to all stats plus 3 open slots. This could potentially result in some combination of a +20/20/20/20 stat belt, which completely overshadows any godly +11 single stat witch belt, which means people will totally still be grinding the Dojo for that better belt. Please! Make the other 2 belts permanent again! (Oh and who cares if you can collect multiple pumpkin boxes if you can still only turn one in every 8 hours?) #Depressed.
I agree, check out my suggestion thread and throw in your input! https://royals.ms/forum/threads/hal...on-make-purple-belts-like-pilgrim-hat.130679/
And the white belt from mu long dojo that gives +1 all stats CLEAN and is the lowest level belt you can get is better than the 2 halloween belts that became timed. this change doesn't make sense to me.
Just means that the witch belts are glorified trophies rather than competitive equipment, which should be the norm since they're event equips rather than equips that are available at all times.
What are the Pilgrim Hat, Valentine's Ring and Anniversary Equips (Earrings specifically) considered then? They're all permanent and competitive equipment. They're only available during/from events as well.
I said that it SHOULD BE the norm that event equipment just be nice trophies rather than competitive equipment. I never said that they applied this concept consistently.
Simply meant that pilgrim hat should be timed as well? And perhaps all other equipment such as annivasary earrings. I feel removal of these belts indeed makes player’s time invested feels cheated. How many hours of gameplay did players invested into doing gauntlet and leading up to this? It was an well designed event, oh due to balancing against the upcoming mulung dojo belt? Just Make the entire event almost pointless to particpate. Simply with this update we can expect a easily fall participation as there isnt any quality reward from this point. How would u compare a possible 12single Stats clean belt to a belt with 5stats to all with 3 slots!? There are players like myself feeling annoyed as i invested time and effort into trying to get a decent belt. I feel the development team should considering to include rewards such as pilgrim hat as an 10% drop from gauntlet or 1000 Points for it, perhaps. Since its already released permernantly right?
Make an event, reward particpation with an permernant and untradable gear. Players base would actually particpate because it takes less then two minutes. Well make it time based and decrease particpation!? I do not understand. Whats the point of actually farming those tokens now?
As of right now? None. Dark tokens only get you the witch hat and the belts, and since the witch hat is crap, and the belts are timed. They and their scrolls are entirely pointless. XD
making them temporary basically just undermined my efforts for the past few days managed to get a 6 int belt for my bish, 1 5dex 4 luk belt for my baby nl and 1 4 int one for my fp. Jeez. this totally makes the whole dark token thing pointless.
Anyway usually events is the peak for all players where everyone actually go hype for the events and especially the rewards. If adminstrators are putting in reconsideration into these, please quickly make adjustment before the market of the witch belt chaos scroll falls and rise too hard again
We aren't going to be making the belts temporary again, but we are definitely thinking of adding some other rewards for you to exchange dark tokens for.
Please make the dark token’s reward really attractive where players will kill for one. Making these enjoyable Halloween content that your team work really on even more attractive and competitive to fight for.
^ Maybe perhaps a randomized amount of Gelt Chocolates (1-3 or 1-5) since chocolates could be considered "candy"? Or Narican's Demon Elixer as they're more "Halloweeny"? Even those aren't very appealing in the big picture. As it stands there is literally nothing worth investing in and we need incentive to hunt/work for Tokens I just don't understand the reasoning behind being opposed to permanent items from Halloween but being totally okay with them from nearly every other event. Seems odd to me considering there are so many wonderful activities involved with the Halloween event as mentioned above. Things like the Gauntlet need good rewards to incentivize players to do it - it's such a fun concept with a lot of hard work clearly put into it.
I hate to rain on your parade but there's a tiny little problem in terms of fairness if this happens. The event is hourly, however, and I'm just assuming here, a good chunk of the population are probably working adults that can't play as often as some of you guys. Given how often the event is, and how much tokens completing one offers the player, the price of whatever is going to be added is probably going to be rather high too, screwing everybody who can't play as often as the others. Like myself, I work 15 hours a day, I barely have 2 or 3 hours to play. Whatever tokens I get in that play time, not counting all the other stuff I need to do, is going to be far from enough to afford the good stuff as it is.
The more time you sacrifice to play, the stronger you get. Thats the truth for every game, and almost all games are balanced in that way unless its a complete pay2win game no? In royals there is no p2w system. Therefore these hourly events are actually feasible and highly participated. Lets say events are hosted in a manner where every server reset happens. Well, ain’t there lesser participation? Think of it this way.
That's just...how the game works. You get what you put in. There are other events that require participation and are on an hour (or multi-hour) basis. The fact that they are hourly actually benefits your inability to play for long hours.
This halloween event seems pretty rush to me. It is like the developers didnt think it through. Probably trying to make more people to come back by releasing a rushed update. Witch belt is made temp? U might as well just remove dark tokens dude. It is completely obselete since dojo is coming out soon. Why not make a limited edition belt that gives a 1 all stat belt 0 slot. Like do jq 10 times or something. At least it is worth something. Mulung dojo will still outshine this belt so there is no power creep. Another fail event
