Login is screwy, I'm stuck waiting for my Swordmaster to load now. Happy days! (Did not get perma horns on mercenary today, maybe next week if this is still happening)

I personally solo almost always unless someone needs help with something or whatever.
I find it more relaxing to go through dungeons at my own pace.

So unbelievably mad right now.
After trying to spark this weapon for a minimum of 50~70 times (I lost count), I finally get it to this:
I see a cheap +8 Primary Geode in the Market and then get a Ogre Greatsword with the sprite mode I wanted and then decide to risk upgrading it once for the hell of it. +9. I decide to spark it and in 3 tries I get:
Sigh. I'm going to put Light Suffix on it and then use it for Manticore.

the entire enhancement and sparking system is complete sh*t. It's just a ploy to gain money  ... I really wish they had another system in place that wasn't so stupidly reliant on luck.

Don't you make all your money from random sparking rusty? LOL
That and enhancing too.

Even if I make a lot of money that's not the point. The power of your character shouldn't be that reliant on luck.
If I had my way the game would work like this
-Maximum enhancement level is 6
-Enhancement system changed to always be 100%. The drop rate of onyx crystals changed to be 1 onyx at the end of a dungeon run. Abyss dungeons dropping 2. Each enhancement costs a higher amount of gold and an increasing amount of crystals. To go from +2 to +3 would cost maybe 9 while going from +5 to +6 might cost around 25.
-Faction points can be used to buy onyx crystals
-Sparks changed to allow you to choose which spark you want.
-Green gear can only have 1 line, blue gear has 2 lines, and epic gear has 3 lines. You can apply the same enhancement 3 times to one piece of gear (Ex - 4.5% strength x 3)
-Green sparks given at the end of easy - hard level dungeons, blue sparks given at the end of master and abyss level dungeons, and epic sparks dropped at the end of nests.
-Each hidden ability line costs an extra spark. The 2nd line will cost 2 blue sparks, the 3rd epic line will cost 3 epic sparks.
-Due to an easier time enhancing/sparking gear, the amount of gear dropped in dungeons and nests would have to be reduced. Nests may drop only 1 or 2 items now
-Crafting gear drop rate may have to be tweaked

Sparking/enhancing will be more money based and less luck based once we get unique gear. I don't know how legendary gear works exactly (stopped being active around there) but as for unique:
- Enhancing: Just takes a ton of money + jellies
- Sparking: There's only 7 variations and most of them are elements that vary. I believe it's evenly distributed too so like 14.7%?
That rule actually applies currently. Epic stuff takes more money but it's easier to get the potentials you want.

Same enhancement on 3 lines would be broken. You really want some mages to run around with 24% element per equip (that's what, 96% fire/ice, 110% dark)? lol. Or perhaps run that 18% phys / matk per equip instead (delicious 72% dmg across 4 equips). Plus the fact that since if this is possible, people would be willing to dump insane amounts of money into getting it (this would probably create a market for NX sparks) resulting in a further division between regulars and the NX whores.
If you really wanted the game to be less reliant on gear, the lowered enhancement cap is a good idea. Sparks shouldn't give such good stats and make gear actually worth something by itself. There should be a slightly more uniform drop rate for mats too. Having something drop like ALL the time and then one that drops once in a blue moon is retarded. Cerb paw was like 10g near the end of the 32 cap. That one cerb tag though was like still 500g or something? Same rarity mat, one is 50x the price. Fantastic.
Stamps and jellies are the "cubes" of DN as well.
Also, not sure why you'd talk about the onyx. Drop rate for them is great right now. You can essentially buy onyx from a faction if you buy medium waters and just craft. Considering the drop rate of gifts now (at least 3 per master run; minimum gain in points = 30, max = 90). Biggest wall for regular people are the epic sparks imo. I am not willing to spend 600g for a CHANCE to get some stats on a ring that already cost me 1kG. Stamps are so full of pomegranate.

obviously crit and elemental % would have to be removed to keep people from stacking that to ridiculous levels.
I would probably remove phys and magic damage as well to be honest, but allow people to add 6.5% hp to their weapons.

I'm honestly far more annoyed with the gathering of Boss Drop Materials for crafting. Annoying as hell going through an hour of hunting a single boss just to finally see its boss drop and realize its only 1.
Then you realize you still have to get 4~10 more.

I already quit the game. I have no idea if the mod has been updated or not. Valued (jon / chinese letters guy) says he can't see cerb fire with the mod.
I have never used the mod either so I dunno. So go PM him if he knows :V.
