Absolute Ring Event

I fucking hate these events.

So if I have a tradeable level 10 ring is there anything I can do to upgrade it and continue toward the Absolute Ring? Or should I just stop trying?

Put it in storage, get a new ring. You can't upgrade your level 10 to a level 11, but you can get an 11th stamp for this phase. You should still be able to get the final ring.

i'm more concerned about the meaning of this, does this mean that we need 31 stamps and three maxed evo rings? (the end of the post says you have to have all three maxed) or do you just need the 31 stamps? and thus are able to trade three crappy level 1 rings for the ultimate one? (doubt it)

If you need 3 maxed rings, why did they write 31-33? You'd necessarily have 33 if you maxed all 3 rings. Unless you traded one or two of them from someone? Nah, they don't seem to have considered any of the ramifications of having the rings tradeable before the event ends.

Well, certainly can't hurt to make a few tradeable level 1 rings on unrelated mules today.

My Ring is only +5 tradeable since I didn't learn about the event until recently.

.....I'm screwed out of the 31 minimum for the Absolute Ring, aren't I?

Yeah.
Even if you get a 6th stamp today (by putting your ring in storage and getting a new one), you won't be able to get 25 stamps more with only 24 days left in the event. (Plus there's no way of getting a 12th stamp in the upcoming phases, so you're actually limited to 22 more stamps).
Sorry.

Right now, I can only say, prevention is better than cure. This is highly inefficient and frustrating.

I can't either. I missed two days (was going to get it to at least +10, though honestly I have no idea how this is supposed to work with different rings) but I can't go past +9 now.

What you can do is put the ring in storage, ask Gaga for a new one, and upgrade that one for an extra stamp. You'll have 10 stamps on your calendar, even though your ring will remain +9.
Hopefully, the "award phase" only looks at the stamps, and doesn't compare them to the rings in your inventory or require the rings to be maxed.
But who knows what else Nexon misdesigned and miscoded in this event.

Gaga states that he needs those three rings to combine them into the Absolute Ring... so I'm afraid that using the method of obtaining a new ring and upgrading it to get the stamp won't work. :/

Also, technically, you only need 31 stamps right? In Patt's case, all he has to do is ensure he maxes the next two rings and still get the Absolute Ring. I'm thinking as long as you have a (+10, +10, +11) or a (+9, +11, +11), you still have a chance. Any more than that is great, but any less than that and you're screwed.

So Ive been thinking...

If the 10th day made all the rings tradeable and today to get another stamp all you have to do is put the tradeable ring in storage and get another, right? Well, if the event requires you to only have 31 stamps total regardless of the ring stats...could it be possible for us to keep the tradeable rings in storage and then trade in the untradeable +1 rings at the very end while having 31 stamps?

EDIT: ninja'd while i was typing this.

Gaga doesn't say anything about the rings having to be maxed to be combined. Or their number of upgrades having to match the number of stamps you have.
In fact, if they needed to be maxed, you'd have to have 33 stamps.
Why do the patch notes say 31-33, then?

Screwed-up event is screwed up.

[MENTION=3710]Christopher[/MENTION]; the +1 rings you get today are tradeable too.

Ugh. I hate these attendance events we've been getting. Such a pain in the ass.

QFT

I find it kind of interesting how much shittier the game got so quickly after a certain someone left

I've missed a day so far, so I have one 10lvl and one 1lvl ring now. Fingers crossed it counts stamps and doesn't require 3 complete rings.

So this event is pretty much el sucks...

Seem this ring unable to use other scroll

 Spoiler

Seem this ring unable to use other scroll

It's not supposed to be scrollable or potable. Same as previous evolving rings.
The upgrade slots are for Gaga only, a way of avoiding making 22 different items in the database.

And we all knew it would right from the announcement, too bad Nexon doesn't have the same foresight.

It's times like this I wish they would make a statement of some kind to know if it is worthwhile carrying on or cutting my losses now.

Lmao. The extra day is not only conditionally useless, I can't get the potion at all no matter what I did or didn't do the previous days.

Or if we had some sort of community representative to, you know, tag and raise issues concerning the event that literally affects every user and is not functioning as intended. Would really help with PR.

Either that or mass spam their support center for lulz.

Their "support center", aka the official forums, are being spammed.
We shall see what, if anything, will come of it.
