Everyone says the game is dead. It is not. Actualy just faked up.
There are unnecessary things in it. Like CF, AD and attack limit.
In S1 these **** did not exist and game was way more accessable for everyone. +13 weapon was a dream and no one ever cared for an armore over +10.

Now you are forced to have at leaset 3500 AD to creat some accaptable DPS, and if you are in an ulucky boat where a really strong player like Salamndry join you are happy to have your 7%. Actuly she will deal 50+ on the boss alone and if there is one more wiht better equipment then you the 85% pf tje boss jő gpme amd tjere are 2 players to get the remaining 15%. So 7% is not that easy to reach.

Rebalancing old characters. There are still some high lights like Fifi and Karok, but (St)Evie has abysmal dps imo. At least i really strugle to get something. (better to say used to stuggle since i did not play in the past 3 weeks a second, due to the really fun changes).

Everyone say fine do other raids where you can have enough dmg to get your shite...yeah ture. But who the fak wants to do Regina, super boring Glass or faked up Braha anymore when we have a much more fun raid called Agares. Actuayl the lvl 95s are pretty bad raids, maybe Dullah is fun when ppl doesnt force the glitched endplay with him, as a staff evie you are not able to do much dps in that phase.

I understand that they want to keep people with more time and better gear accupied, to be able stronger, and I am sure those people who has the top gears on multiple characeters are the real customers of nexon, but this make the game not really accessable for people whit casual stuff and limited playtime.

Just one question for u guys. Who runs multiple characters how the fak you have time for that? I get up go to work for 8 hrs a day sometimes 9 or 10. Come home eat somthing and maybe can sit down and play 2 hrs at max. Its hardly enough for a 90s raid train and did not do NIF RAR or redeemers. A redeemers run is around 30 min so if you do that no time for other raids.

Anyway. This new update was the dealbreaker for me with Vindi, too much inverstment is needed (money, time or both) to go on.

I was with the flow and did not rush things. And slowly got some stuff to be able to play again. Actualy I wanted to quit when they launched the incredible stupid counterforce mechanic.

My stats are not great not terrible. Around 35k att and 15k deffense. (+11 astera staff and +8 - +13 dulla/astera gear). But still wehen i had only 5,8 percent in Agares and got onlyone shite item i decided to quit the game. I feel like too much investment needed to get to acceptable level.
3000+ add dmg as a minimum requirement (full +12 gear and a +12 weapon). I have only 2500 so my dmg output is abismal. To upgrade my gear is more or less possible. I can reforge and free +13 my cap what helps a bit, but i need a new Astera top...i broke it at +9. I could also +11 it with my free rune. This run would cost around 100m gold what is not much. But would not take me too much further.

The big help is to get a +13 or higher weapon. What requires huge luck what i dont have or lots of gold like ... hell a lot. Lets count minimum 10-12 weapon essense and additional mats to go from +11 to 13. Level 150 will be out untill i can farm this.

All in all this game was fun until it lasted, but now its not fun for me anymore.

Agreed i used to play since 2011 with some breaks.
The current trend of the game is really bad, you need to have endless time and multiple characters or lots of money to go somewhere.
In S1-S2 a decent set with enchants and a +10-12 weapon was good enough to play and have fun. Now you need to have a +12-13 sert with enchants and a +13-14 weapon and this is the requirement to stay on surface and be able to get the drops from Astera bosses.

what they should do IMO:
- Eliminate Add dmg stat.
- Do something with countrefoce.
- Increase drop rates.
- Binding system is kinda stupid only reason is to keep selling potions.
- Inners and hair are fine for me they are free with AP so its ok.
- 7% dmg cap at bosses is too high. Parties are unbalanced when an elitist join she/he can easyl make 50%+ dmg hard to keep up with regular characters.

Otherwise if they want to keep ADD DMG and attack limit stat, they should make way more easier to achieve it. Cheaper refoge, and remove the NX item from the reforge list.

Quit for the a.m reasons. Life, time, money way hard to get end game stuff.
Now the cryteria is even harder. 7% dmg for the drops. With the current drop rates that makes incredible hard to get anything. I am happy that some people can run3-5 characters at the same time and farm 90-100 content every day and earn lots of gold, but i have 2-3 hrs a day at max to play. That is hardly enough for one set of raids. No chance to get ebough mats and money to advance now.

So probably you dont know me. My character is LinManalili a pretty avarage (st)evie with 27k att and 13k deff.
I play the game since 2011 and have to say this not res ppl thing come up with rise.
Yes raids are faster and harder to res with 4 player this is true, but still possible. Some of the playser do not even carrie feathers like boo4u.
I do not care how strong the characters are, but this game is about teamplay at least used to be.
Anyone with 14k+ deff and a +15 lvl 90 weapon can solo lvl 90 raids, but still should res ppl
