Re: Low Population..some thoughts

Dear Seraphicas,
I really appreciate that You want to change somethings, although i don't agree with changes You proposed. Could You tell me whats the reason in comparing prices to official servers (if You could tell me the source of prices You said that'd be good, becouse now official is like 6 chronicles away), where official has a lot more online, and its not 10x rated!

From what I've heard from multiple sources you guys got butthurt they took your castle with an alt clan and cried to the gm's to intervene, gm's mass para TR so they couldn't scribe, you wonder why they left.

I wonder what that "multiple" sources are. And please specify "You guys" becouse noone from our (Astale) clan was crying about that. And that wasn't even our castle. You know why tr's left? Becouse they were toxically greedy and they were not playing for fun, they were playing to win no matter what. Anyway, i dissagree with GM's interfering so much like that (especially when that GM quit again now). Server economy is like that becouse there are many old player that rather buy the stones than farm it, and there are not much new players (sadly) that would farm that - thats why prices are like that. People are lazy here.
Ps. I think You're being a little brainwashed.

Re: Low Population..some thoughts

Muzyk some of those sources are in Astale currently. I heard from people in most active clans here. Reason I even asked is I was curious why everyone seemed to have left. Its not pointing at this clan or that clan in particular. Im incapable of being "brainwashed" I think for myself and make my opinions based on what is presented to me. Nobody ever gets the full story. What I don't understand is why you always think im pointing out astale. I'm not, sometimes I'm talking "in general" about the server itself. Some of the proposed changes wouldn't make any sense to you. I understand that, you already have everything available to you. But what about the players that don't? Have you forgotten about them? My ideas were to help new players come here and get rolling. Not for players that have been here for a while. I gathered my info from members of Astale, TR, Redrum, Allianzashinobi, even the gm. Look back to my post about your members pking me at cabrio. What was the title of it? I believe it was rule clarification on subclass bosses or something to that end. What did it turn into? A flame post and my challenge to Astale to turn the server around since you seem to be the most active clan now. I honestly don't think anyone even read fully what I wrote, I never flamed your clan or anything. I had the rules explained to me because I didn't fully understand them. I even went as far as to apologize for what I said, even tho I didn't think I should have. Why don't you man up and see shit for what it is instead of feeling the need to come on here and oppose me at every turn. The truth of the matter is this, the changes i proposed were not aimed for you "veteran" players. Maybe you could explain how buying a shadow epic for 15 days will unbalance the server or its already fucked up economy. Did anyone complain about getting a shadow epic from an event ever? Probably not. Some of my ideas might not be popular to you no, but you're also the one sitting their telling the "noobs" to register for olympiad. But yet you show zero interest in newer players getting on a close to even playing field, unless they are in your "swarm".  Who doesn't play to win? Do you go out and intentionally lose a competitive game just to make the other people "feel" better? If you want to claim yes, then whats wrong with some of the ideas I suggested? Didn't someone give you your current gear? I suppose you'll claim now you earned it the normal way. TW consists of farming boxxed alts for fame. Not fighting over wards. Olympiad consists of farming boxxed toons for pts. And everything else is pve farmer all day long and cry when someone kills ya. Guess that's how private servers are, I didnt know this was my first. My prices from official are from GoD. I logged into it after years away and walked through giran. some prices may vary but not by much.

Re: Low Population..some thoughts

Out of all the changes I proposed, none of them would benefit me. I have my epics minus an antharas now, I have my buffers. I have a decent set with stones. Everything else I need I can acquire myself, through in game means. I'm looking out more for the general direction of the server, and potential new/considering players here. I didn't mean Astale's castle being taken i typed that wrong. But I'm sure you were among the people whining about it to the GM's. Why do some of you "veteran" players feel you need changes that also "boost" your characters? You don't need them anymore!

Re: Low Population..some thoughts

Epics are the most valuable things in lineage, that is why they are "epics". Getting those for free, without putting any effort into farming the hard rades, camping them etc would make people loose any challenge in game and leave fast. That is the exact reason why pvp servers, where you come and just get everything never live for more than a couple of months and shutting down soon after they start. Smarter servers will simply help the newbies to get the very simple stuff, just to boost them enough for them to be capable of farming something better.
Yes, my gear is shitty - OLs are not a dd class at all and ++ on a weapon does not matter much.
Cannot say for all, but I know at least some of players who are competitive here and I, as was already mentioned, do find a ways to enjoy oly there, you might just be unlucky or over pessimistic about that.
I also wonder how u figured out the price of aa on "official GoD" if there is no such thing as ancient adena at all with a shutdown of catacombs.

Re: Low Population..some thoughts

ok yeah aa was 3/4adena per back when they were open still. Shadow epics can't be enchanted, thus the standard epics are superior even at +1. Try to understand that I want the server to get better. Don't single out every little piece of info that I maybe made a slight mistake with to support what you want. And yes aa used to be 3-4 adena when it was for sale. Everything was pretty accurate, I didnt even see any aa for sale to be honest but it "used" to be 3/4

Also Ol are strong in Olympiad Dodger/ Pantofla. And yes they CAN be set up to be dd but they drop mp so fast its not IDEAL. 1v1 OL/WC are strong in any case with 80% life drain. You trying to tell me with your +16 you're not hitting hard? I watched a match of yours.

Re: Low Population..some thoughts

To Muzyk, its the simple rules of supply and demand. High demand, slightly higher prices cuz of the DEMAND for the items/goods. Lower demand slightly lower prices cuz the DEMAND for the goods/items is lower. Unless we talking about alts with rich mains here, how does that not make sense to you?

Re: Low Population..some thoughts

By your reasoning 10x rates means 10x prices even with hardly any players here and very little demand. Farming stones is not hard, someone above posted these items arent farmed hardly ever, and only people buying them are players that have billions to throw around due to being too " lazy" to farm anymore. Not new players, trust me I'm one of the newer players. I didn't buy a single stone and other than Reload giving me some have gotten them myself. Your server you play on is/has died out and you come on here to discredit what I'm saying? I'm trying to build it back up to be better than before. What are your goals here?
