RED update thoughts and feedback

My range shot up to 100k thanks to Elemental Amp showing up in our ranges now. :3 I'm having a bit of a hard time getting used to all my new skills though, especially since I haven't played Maple in a couple months.

I started a new F/P for that Crit Ring and F/Ps are way easier to train in 2nd job. Granted, people really exaggerated how bad 2nd job was for F/Ps but I do wish F/Ps were like this from the very beginning.

OhGodWhy.jpq

Because there had to be a late Black Friday sale on items in the FM too.

Two things:

1. I made a new explorer, but I can't get any medals from Dalair such as "The Next Legend" medal everyone can get if you have a level 200 on your account. Is this a bug or something?

2. Night Lords can be summed up as "Yo dawg I heard you like throwing stars, so you can throw stars while you throw stars." I never thought a Night Lord can mob so amazingly. Shadow Splitter + Advanced Mark shi't stars out like a homing gatling gun, or like a Mega Shark and Tactical Shotgun made a baby and that baby was full of Chlorophyte Bullets.

I had the same issue. I think it might be because I deleted a character to make the new explorer, although that character was a level 10 Noblesse and hadn't claimed any medals yet. Anyway, at some point entirely at random, after many relogs and cc's and a couple job advances too, I cc'ed and suddenly all those red notices piled up at the bottom of the screen and I got the medal. I have absolutely no idea what made it suddenly work.

Hurricane is straight up pomegranate now. My damage on it went way down, although I do enjoy having the option to move during the attack without investing in a hyper skill. 4th job mob attack is ugly as sin. The turret is icky to use. I mean, I can place it easily, but during a few rounds of DIpq, I quickly found it just doesn't manage to hit exactly what I want it to hit. Bah, I just don't like this revamp.

Did you happen to max hurricane in 3rd job?




Yeah..

I remember getting all my medal reward things at once after I accepted or finished one of those notification quests. Forget which one.

Did you happen to max hurricane in 3rd job?

Yeah..

Hurricane was the first thing I maxed when I finished assigning SP into 2nd job. I love the new animation, but I can't see it when I'm standing on top of my turret thingie.

At first, I was really excited about that neb. Then I said to myself, "No, Foolyz. Stahp it." Piece of pomegranate dupers. I seriously got from 8x to 15x yesterday, and if we get a rollback, I will cutabitch

Please provide proof. I have ALWAYS been waiting between spawns because I clear too fast, unless I had Kishin. Post-RED there is absolutely no waiting, until yesterday when the servers were abnormally full for YMCK. Please note, my cores didn't change. I always use +7 level, 30% population increase and HP x5.

Ok, I found something to show you.

Watch how often the mushrooms come from all around. It's roughly a 3-4 second interval (which is normal EVO spawn rate as I said before). This video is from patch 1.38.

Bleh I got an ugly penguin, ALL my mule acc got either a cake or a pie, 5 mule acc total). O man I REALLY REALLY wanted a perm cake, or at least a pie ( its ok, dont like it as much as cake)

Oddly enough, all I got was cakes. I wish we could trade.

The spawn rate in Evolving World Link 3 keeps on switching on me. For some runs it's the normal one wave spawns, I clear out everything, next wave spawns. Other times it's a continous stream of spawns.

Have no idea what to make of this.

Thanks. I've never had this experience before. Interesting to see it was around before RED.

That's precisely what I am feeling right now. Why can't we have nice things?

What you guys are experiencing is what my guild would call a 'bad room' where the spawn is in the 6-8 second range. It would happen to me once every 3-4 runs on a normal day, but on the high population days it would be more often for sure. Hard to speculate exactly what causes it directly since EVO is a separate server, but it gets all of us eventually.

Ooh, thanks for posting that.

some of the screenshots:

Oh hey, we can buy level 160 Pendants, Earrings, Eye Accessories and Face Accessories using Commerci Denaro. I wonder what the scrolls do?

Not exactly sure what the UI is showing, end of mission summary/exp gained? the lady is probably showing your ships current status/level/upgrades.

The other screenshot I find hilarious because it's commerci at "night", yet you can clearly see sunlight beaming down from a bright blue sky with clouds, underneath the "nighttime layer"

Those eye and face accessories will be awesome for upgrading away from Mystic equips.

It's obviously Moon beams.

...I could write a series of limericks on top of that woman's forehead.

Aww lame, the Sweetwater accessories don't count towards the set bonus.

I don't mind this RED update.
Love the free pets <3 Bit sad that I got a Duck instead of the Pie/Cake but it's cool.
Also the piles of events that were added.. Sigh no break ):

I am also happy with the no town lag (Been stuck with town lag over a year or so) though.. I can't be in any map that Cassandra resides in - Rein, Aqua, Event hall. </3 Pretty sure the town lag will come back to me after whatever event.

As for NL skills. Dayum. I'm loving my NL again. Bit weird to have the stars fly all over but yeah.
Shad class was alright. Not sure of the Meso Explosion skill being glitched or not. Semi-alright to have mesos flying around I guess. Haven't tried the other classes to see what the skills look like yet.
The animations for the explorer classes are pretty neat.

I had the same issue, but once I got to lvl 20 I could collect the medals, specifically the next legend.
