Why they removed the KBC from the Raffle??

[Necrohealiac]

it's not removed; it's probably RNG. and raffles are probably taking longer to cycle through now that people have wised up. I've seen raffles for sunnies expire because no one wants them.

raffler dying 2 days after it started, lol

 

update it with better stuff

[poringpet]

how about making the loot for higher level non botted monsters actually worth picking up and rewarding instead of giving botters so much of an advantage. it would also be nice if the people that paid money for items in boxes were given a little bit of respect too.by that i mean please stop spamming the same items.i hope you guys releaze a little bit that theres about 1to7 advatange with the kafra boxes vs zeny sellers.i spent 750million zeny on my +9HBP theyll be in the low 30s by wensday put it in a few more months this year so i can whatch people throw them on the ground to clear out inventory space.FAWs arnt far behind a massacre either and another thing that autumn hat is selling for around 400million while its second class counter part lyrica hat is worth like what 2million how does that resemeble an attempt at balance?and WHY WHY WHY did you guys put MCAs and sloted mids in the raffle thier already dirt cheap the price on those has dropped around 65-70% in the last year. just stop doing events or anything no more please just stop

There is no way you expect to be good in RO without being able to read the market somewhat and plan for trends

When there is a variable in marketing that drastically alters future predictings and there is no foretelling, your advice goes out the window. He's saying that that is what events are.

 

The irony is that to "Learn how to market" you have to pay attention to QQ'ers, sometimes. BMx3 are skyrocketing, people are complaining, coincidence it's guaranteed in this month's box? There are a number of examples like this, such as Enriched Hammer majestically appearing for a short period of time. The irony is that he's QQ'ing and QQ'ing is a factor of marketing.

Exactly, so learn how to take advantage of when people cry. The people crying end up usually screwing themselves and making me a ton of money at the same time. They're annoying but I have to thank them.

[Necrohealiac]

dig a little deeper and ask yourself why bmx3s are skyrocketing in the first place. if it weren't for the boxes, can you imagine how high the bmx3 prices would be? they'd be bordering on the absurd.

The QQs generally seem to be coming from a handful of sources who are clearly hoarding these items specifically so that they can gouge other players. if it were a true problem you'd see way more people complaining about it than just the same one or two every time.

[Viri]

People just don't like when their poorly constructed investments don't pan out. I mean it's worth trying to influence the CMs I suppose but when it's literally only good for you and no one else wants it you probably should just eat the loss or hold out long term in hopes whatever you have appreciates in value. If it's a consumable, odds are it will appreciate in value again sometime, if its an equip that was best in slot and no longer is, you're probably out of luck.

Lol, yeah. There is an advantage to be taken in the scenario, I agree.

It's their marketing strategy to horde the boxes and gouge other players. Just as well, I'm sure tons of QQ'ers are people that can't handle a good ol' fashion grind and need their BMx3 fix.

 

Hearing people going from Novice to max level in a week or two's time is also bordering on the absurd for any player who's been around long enough (then again these are the people that can afford to do that, too...).

[Necrohealiac]

well bmx3s have an outsize effect when you end up with a significant increase in level and exp required to get there without any real content to level on. and since a significant portion of the population is involved in the high end pvp/woe scene, it's keep up or get left in the dust and crushed so yes, viewed in that light, bmx3s are going to be almost mandatory in that situation.

there's a point where the game stops being a "good ol' fashioned grind" and it becomes cruel and unusual punishment when you're pulling down like a couple thousand exp per mob because there's nothing within your range anywhere that's not subject to exp penalties.

going from 150 to 175 is like going from 1-150 3 more times, and you'd still be short almost 300 mil exp.

It only took me about a month to get my RK from 1/1 High Novice to 99/70 LK, only having VIP for about half that and without using any battle manuals and honestly being pretty laid back in the grinding. As someone who grinded the 1 to 99 road back in pre-renewal way too many god damn times, leveling from 1 to 99 in renewal feels substantially easier than it was back then.

 

Of course, I've yet to grind the third class levels and I imagine the road past 150 will be excessively hard, but that's a challenge I'm willing to accept when the time comes.

January lucky box fail and this raffle fails.

I think gm need to check ragial and eden to calculate how much things are and see what the trade price at.

I feel GMs are kind of ignorant at the markets

[hemanthkumarv]

I think they should add gold scaraba card in raffle 

[DeadIntern]

Add memory of thana card. Guarantee zeny circulation drop by 70%. hue

[3305141201055603410]

They should add new prizes, or just take him out now.

if you can't turn a profit with the current lucky box you're clearly doing something wrong.
