Any problems with Gopinich in Moscovia? 

[Gn1ydnu]

That looks awesome! Can't wait to try it out.

Is classic getting any more compensation beyond just VIP?

[Kuyami]

Are you reading the suggestions for compensation on this thread: http://forums.warppo...i-compensation/ ?

Campitor asked what would be a good compensation, but then kinda dissapeared...

I am now, thanks~

[Campitor]

We will announce it tomorrow. It will be the same format as the Santa NPC but not the same give aways

[Xellie]

When are you going to fix detard?

[Hiffba]

Please consider increasing spawn rate in Ice Dungeon 3. The spawn used to be greater than this when there was an event.

Nope, seems to be working fine, thanks for putting it in.

 

The garment seems okay, what about the bonuses for expanded classes?

 

Have you been drafting up anything for the Q2 roadmap? I assume most of the Thor panic has settled down and you've got some more time for Classic/Renewal now.

 

Squirrel: I think they gave the accounts that missed out VIP yesterday, I think they got all of mine.

 

Edit: Also have you seen this thread http://forums.warppo...actice-edition/ ? It seems like something that could interest people mid-week and give the pvp/woe only players something to do as their gameplay is heavily focused on the weekend right now.

Respawn area 

Respawn time 

AI 

Drops so far seem accurate

 

I forgot Chimeras are still missing in Glast Heim (there should be 3 of them in gl_cas02). Currently, the only natural respawn for it is Endless Tower.

 

I would also like to bring back up this idea : http://forums.warppo...e-dungeon-mk-2/

I thought it could be a good way to introduce the missing items from the New World with something like token rewards that could be exchanged for the equipments:

Spoiler

Monsters drops:

 

 Cello

 Lunakaligo

 Bradium Shield

 Mandragora Cap

 Harp of Nepenthes

 Nepenthes Bow

 Stem of Nepenthes

 Horn of Hillslion

 Sprint Shoes

 Black Cat

 Cold Heart

 Cursed Lyre

 Pinguicula Corsage

 Whip of Balance

 Battle Fork

 Shield of Naga

 Armor of Naga

 Sprint Ring

 Sprint Mail

 Angelic Ring

 

"Bosses" with short respawn time drops:

 Veteran Sword

Veteran Axe

Veteran Hammer

 

Bosses drops:

 Ivory Lance

 Ivory Knife

 Tournament Shield

 Bone Head

 Eraser

 Death Guidance

 Leather of Tendrilion

Does anyone like the idea of getting giant fly wings as rewards for doing the monster TI's? Having a TI like ID3 needs to stay imo - could change each week or month I guess too.

It's too easy to complete the TIs. That kind of a reward is grossly disproportionate to the amount of effort required for it. They'd almost certainly have to be account bound.

 

imo gwings only serve to kill parties anyway. Players become reliant on the EXP/h efficiency they bring forward. You can see the consequences of that attitude in typical party length and player attitudes on Renewal.

 

A reward of some kind would be nice though.

I think pvp badges would be a great idea? How much per though? 5? 10?

Ah thanks. Yeah I haven't logged in since we got it so I had no idea. Just checked and I have vip now.

 

Yeah I saw a little bit of that thread but haven't looked too much into it. I think it is a good idea that has a lot of different possibilities. Good and bad possibilities. I think it would help overall though. I wouldn't really have much time to take advantage of it unfortunately.

There has been a lot of discussion over the last year or so about adding things to encourage players who dont need the exp to show up and help out with turn in parties, some off the top of my head:

• Battleground badges
• Surplus Boxes
• Turn the base exp into job exp
• Include them in the proposed KVM project (http://forums.warppo...classic-server/)

I havent really been all that interested in Titans yet as I think Dragons are faster, but I've definitely put in some time helping pull in Dragons without putting anything in the party. It'd be really cool to encourage more people to get together and join parties even if they dont just need the exp. The rewards would really have to toe the line between being worth the time and not too much as having a small group of people in a party get extra bonuses is one thing, but running a group full of max level characters to farm the bonuses is another.

 

Right now we've got a handful of custom-ish turnin NPCs that a lot of people probably dont know about. It'd be neat to see them all get used and rotated around to keep things fresh for people as long as the exp/rewards were evenly balanced. You could divide them up into two or three categories related to difficulty/party size and then rotate through them making sure you've got one of each for small/medium/large parties in different places going on. So people who were graduating from Janeway could step into the small party (eg goats) then after getting some levels or making some zeny move on to a medium difficulty (titans) and finish off their leveling with a harder scarier place (dragons).

 

Right now it really depends on what the GMs are planning on, they're currently cleaning up after Thor and probably just starting to make time to deal with Classic/Renewal again. There's a lot of things they've been proposing and unfortunately lots of things have been abandoned unfinished or just never seen the light of day. In saying that they've also managed to get Janeway/Asgard up in that time which has been pretty great so it's just down to picking and choosing carefully while following things through until they're finished.

Good Pm GM Oda,

my concern is that the cursed manteu, The Lobe says after I got the cursed shoes is that the sunken and turtle island things. No clue for the alde baran.. is it implemented already? or does it have a level requirement?

[ClickyHpen]

Please consider increasing spawn rate in Ice Dungeon 3. The spawn used to be greater than this when there was an event.

 

Are you camping the entrance? If so, problem's on your end. Roam, or consider a different setup point. I've done ID3 thrice on stream so far, and despite issues in some cases (lol i'm gonna pull on an hp pro party 2015) we had plenty to murder. I think I commented on this last time this was around, but there are other places to go besides right next to the snowman and mondo mobs end up near the top!

 

If you're roaming, could be a party's just getting your junk. Some pullers ARE beasts. I'd like to hear spawn numbers anyway, just in case. My last ID3 party might have made me biased, because it was sweeeeeet~

[AmericanPie]

Update on lucky box for May please Oda/Camp

You'll be able to pick up that quest after our maintenance is done today!

[Sushi]

So... before Maintenance you drop a bunch of MVPs including Poring the Conqueror with 99m hp in Alberta. In this event I spent like 700 mat bombs, which I see now they were wasted for nothing since nobody cared about that the MVP was still alive and like 20 people were helping killing him. So I gained nothing coz u guys went to maint before we could finish him, and i lost a -_-n lot. THANKS!

 

If you would have said "Finish him before Maint or whatever", I would have not participated since the MVP has a -_-n lot of hp.

[OccultPriest]

Sooooo i just waisted all my bombs on porring the conquerer and maintenance started and i am not happy that it started before it died

nothing makes me more angry than a wasting of my supplies that i work hard for and now i have nothing to show for it

grrrrrrrrrrrr i expect it will be made up to me in some way

 

[Windrunner99]

i don't understand what you guys are saying....so the maintenance should wait for you guys to kill the MVP? that's kinda fun...

 

[Windrunner99]

oh well, i think ongina is being sarcastic =P

[Sushi]

Well, if you summon an MVP of 99m HP, yes.
