8/20 Classic Maintenance Topic Benjamin Harrison Birthday Maintenance

You increase the reward XP but fail to keep the NPC there...

It causes all of your enemies to suddenly fall to their knees in agony and cry till their eyes bleed.

Sounds like Indiana Jones

Dear oda/campitor pls unban me

The Ice Titan npc has stopped hiding.

*Waits for people to post rates*

It was about a 10% increase in EXP rewards with a large spawn increase on all levels.

Hmm I'll try to assemble a crew to go down and test it... but I still feel like that encourages even share parties versus each take ~

I'd like to try it out later

Still Online ? Wow.

WoE emblems are part of the ark of the covenant.  who knew?

Went down to Ice Dungeon with only two others, alted a bunch of characters but the spawn rate is good. It's good enough for a small party, but it's a little bit . . . slow. Getting less than Thors in ~1 hour and thirty minutes (49% -> 69% on a geared level 96 high wizard) with a Strings + Priest slave and even a MS Monk came and started mobbing a bit.

While I do believe this map is technically "good" mob-wise, it needs more parties roaming around to continue up the spawn. If about 10+ parties were down there, the exp + time invested would be amazing I would imagine.

The turn-in needs a boost in EXP, at least doing Ice Dungeon on 90+ trans is no-good bears. Good for non-trans characters, but I think the reason why I wanted to play in ID3 is because on old Chaos, population was so high that the spawn rate was instant all over the ID3 map... and now that ID3 is in Classic, not many parties are down there sadly due to the exp / time ~

It's not because of low exp/time, but because of too low population counts. And guess why they are so low - botting people, cheating guys and way more problems caused a huge population drop.

As it stands it seems the GM-Team is finally catching up with major handling problems around for 12 months and more. While that's a good thing, tons of damage have been done already and it needs either much time to recover or a full reset.

Just buffing exp for killcounts into oblivion wont change anything, except for handing out free 99s once more - pissing off everyone not being able to participate once more.

Cheating and botting is not the reason for low population. (look at past RO servers and other games)

10% increase to turn ins isnt exactly what i (and i think the community) had in mind but thanks for listening to us atleast...

Obviously bots do not get newbies to quit - of course they love playing on bot infested maps.

Obviously nodelay/autopot during woe does not piss off everyone trying to play "normal" - of course everyone loves fighting an uphill battle all the time.

It's not the sole reason, but looking at classics past: Hey, it makes a huge difference.

The point I was trying to make per turn-in time, the exp reward at the end is not worth it for 90+ Trans. You can get more exp per minute in Thors. The point of the events is to encourage partying, but if the people slaving the killer on each take parties is not worth the time, I can't imagine many people wanting to do it on 90+ trans, or level 99 trans trying to finish their job 70.

You and I have different views on free 99s. The time to get 99 is not free in my eyes, and the supplies or manuals adds up. What do you mean not everyone able to participate in this event? It is quite easy to make any character with less than par gear to play in ID3.

Cheating doesn't stop new people from playing... Emblem swapping does.

Most new people play renewal, and who can blame them? They haven't experienced real Ro before so they don't know what they are missing out on. 

Regarding titans:

• Bring the Snowier NPC to the entrance of level 3 so that the titan turn in and the snowier turn in can be run side by side. This will improve things somewhat.
• Break down the reward exp into smaller chunks, it appears to be only 3. In dragons a single turn in would take a character from 70 to 81 non trans. Titans too my non trans from 71 to 74 to 77 to 79.
• Add 200 count for titans.

Try that before any more turn in exp buff.

Botting made me quit? nah,

Exploits made me quit? nah,

GM's allowing players  exploit without punishment made me quit? yea. now LOTS of player got +3dex GR/VA.and other powerfull items.some of them doesnt even belong to the server..

I dont care much if players bott/exploit, they ll eventually get banned,at least in other games, but here...what piss me off is that GM''s/Gravity doesnt give a single F... about that,about classic.. allowing them to exploit the game without punishment.

Thanks Obama
