Heyo. Left when the alchemist rings were new and about 1.5b, only thing I can recall. Is there anything new? Has the community and staff relationship improved? Are there still shit ton of hackers and the ws cs market unstable? Would love to hear anything that feel like is important enough or just your general feelings about the server
There's Mu Lung dojo, Thailand and Malaysia now. We have monster book now! Some skill changes: https://royals.ms/forum/threads/4th-job-skill-changes.135025/ Now bucc and pally aren't terrible The chair gach reduced cs/ws and chair prices again. I think that covers up everything basic. Just go read the update announcements if you want more.
Alch rings are around 1.2-3 clean now, 1.4 higher end but not unheard of depending on availability. Scrolled value have dropped in price a bit more noticeably as have Spectrum Goggles. There is some new content as mentioned above, balancing included which definitely allows for more classes to participate and provide skills/DPS which benefit their party. Relationship hasn't improved, if anything it's declined due to the lack of communication and involvement. GM hosted events are still on that same unplanned, sporadic schedule where they resort to using that same stupid oh la la jump quest over and over and over again. More staff are MIA now than I've seen in a whileeeeee. Shane is like single-handedly dealing with ban appeals with an occasional mass reply session from Timothy Goes to School (not an insult, loved that show). Granted some of the staff being MIA has been a good thing as their replies to player questions/concerns would often serve as a detriment to our community relations. Shane does an outstanding job in that department though, it's a shame we can't clone him. SHIT ton of hackers. More than we've seen in a while. Mainly due to the lack of staff presence overall. If there were a staff member online at all times it would change things significantly as members come on to report hackers on the shoutbox at a rate which seems like by the hour (exaggeration) but often they get no response or immediate action taken. It discourages them and breeds hostility because they see other players breaking the rules for days on end without ever seeing them face repercussions. CS/WS market is quite stable at 380-410m currently. We didn't get a 2x vote event over the summer like we did last year so I am anticipating it coming in the near-ish future which should further decrease their prices. Staff may opt to wait for winter break to have it though, which makes sense since people will have more free time and be out of school. We'll see. Current Anni event is kind of cool, kind of lackluster. Primarily the same stuff as every other year with a new PQ thing which is underwhelming in the rewards department. Anniversary candles are now untradeable which has brought varied opinions but ultimately makes for the hackers to have one less avenue to make $ off of. 1.25x EXP card is one of the rewards from the event puzzle quest thing which is IMO one of the nicer rewards in the entire event. Worth logging in-game to check everything out, but don't expect a revelation.
Thank you nosebleed for the in depth overview. This is excactly what I needed. I quit due to the server being in shite condition despite loving the forums community and making money, and I was hoping things would get better over time. I wish you all a wonderful day and thank you for your time!
