Looks like the GM's put a timer on the usage of reset stones. So now all you can do is 2 per day.

Cheers.




P.S. nice ninja skills

Lucky I got my level done last week then.

[Ali0510]

Already got people QQing over it..

[AimeeZ]

lol. good thing i took care of most of my characters in the last two weeks of scarabs too.

sucks. too many reset stones now. guess this means god item seal resets.

Sucks :\ Wish I knew ahead of time before getting 20+ stones for my wanderer and ab. I understand people not wanting new players to power lvl easy to 150 and not know how to play their class, but after playing my HP for years and years I'd like a small break to enjoy some easy leveling lol..If it does stay then boo but I hope its considered to be removed ;-;

I believe it was a last minute addition, and wasn't part of planned maintenance.....

[Fonzie]

So basically if your returning to RO or starting new, good luck because now you wont be able to close the gap with people who have been farming 150s. GG Gravity

[iiNote]

I used to make money off reset stones.. but heck I'd sacrifice that for a more balance leveling... it's all good.

at least the reset stones can be used to stat resetting and god seal quest resetting. it's not a total loss. and they're still useable once a day so again not a total loss.

i like this change and approve it. i especially like how it's after the most abusable ti events (juperos, scarabs 1, scarabs 2). if only bio2 or dg was somewhere in the past weeks also...

[Xellie]

Harsh. Even the people saying levelling was too fast were against that.

[YukkiCross]

At least if they were to limit it, say like..3-6 hours something along that? So the player could go work on another char maybe or something. Yeah they can do that with the 23 hour wait but that's so long ;-; I wanna main a offensive character for once instead of my FS life x_x

[AimeeZ]

i think leveling was too fast. i abused ti's probably more than anyone else and i'm still not done leveling. i do think the way it was (infinite resets) was ridiculously overpowered and had to change. (but again thank you for waiting until after juperos, scarab 1 and 2 to do so)

i do think the suddenness of this was unreasonable though and i know there are others who started hoarding/mass exchanging emb for reset stones which will now take longer to go through.

[brothersfree]

it was all well planned for the "ops it was a mistake" kind of revenue boosting

[Fonzie]

Here woulda been a better idea. Make each of the turn ins give 1 EMB. You guys will make a shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit ton from the kafra shop.

Incase you didnt get this post
CASH SHOP

[Zienare]

>.> That's because whiners keep whining about it. Kinda annoying for the FS who are trying to lvl on it.

[meli]

^ You can still party others in the map doing the turn in, or you know, still make party just for exp? you don't need the -TURN IN- itself to level.

I'm against endless reset spamming, but 2 looks restrictive. I'd say maybe 3/4 per day would be fair enough.

[Xellie]

I think putting an hour cool down per reset would be fine.... it has that annoyance/slow you down factor, but people will still do it.

[CeruleanGamer]

Derp..... At least I won't be seeing level 150s every 3 hours now. Gotta hate these posers thinking they "all that" after they level 150. It's really not a big deal to level 150 when you got 597427539 who has them.

I renember in June in this year the medusas turn in,without cooldown,good exp and free warp.Now they put a big cooldown,bad exp and VIP warp.This renember me this meme:

I'd be fine with even 3 hour cooldowns. But 23 hours is crazy T_T

[ShionTheBlack]

I think twice per day is just fine. Weren't daily TI's just supposed to supplement the current leveling curve, not replace it?

Not a great move heim, made even worse by the lack of notice (again).

From the Ymir perspective - there is really no such thing as a 'new player' anymore on Ymir. What we have are 'returned players' from the Chaos/Loki/Iris days (and also Valk refugees that want to escape the bots etc.) As for the returned players, the TI's allow them to 'catch up' and be able to get back to where they left off - being able to WoE, MVP and so on. As the party system is still screwed (and shows no signs of being improved) it's the TI's that allow them to catch up - if they choose to use reset stones then more power to them (and more $$$ to your cash shop).

Maybe a better idea would have been, players on VIP can use the reset stones to do as many TI's as they want. Players not on VIP can just do the 1 or 2 resets a day.

While I don't think the TI system is perfect, until you find a way to improve the normal party system that's all we have - unless you want the soloing classes to go back to leveling as they were prior to the TI's being implemented and the support classes being shafted once again.

So like, Limit the reset stone uses to an hour or 2 cool down? Yea I'm down with that.

But just so we are all clear. This addition was due to a player posting on the forums and the GM's acted fast on it. Even if you don't like the change (Me! However it's not too bad for me since I have loads of characters and it'll hopefully make the others stop emoing about fast leveling) it's awesome to see how the GM's are at least willing to try to make things better for everyone, and with super fast response time! This would have taken weeks/months to be addressed back in the day before the current GM team.

Btw I'm on Ymir and we have many straight up new players (just started the game) in our guild. Several only have one or two characters.

Oh and this change was from the suggestion of players, not the GM's. Yea in the end it's their say, obviously, but they had asked for ideas and this was one of them.

The lack of public notice is pretty unprofessional.
