I will review it, but your message exact reason why we don't have much information in most cases and have to rely on our vision of what is best: 1st sentence - intreduction. 2nd sentence - system is bad, no reasoning. 3rd sentence - because you didn't provide any reasoning why system bad, no reason to change decision of how it's made. 4th sentence - Runes will be addressed. Why they are selling items they dropped from boss? What they will use adena for? I guess they dropped type of item they can't use and want to buy item they can or use this adena to but consumables or save for later. And how many items you need to drop from bosses and sell to get +10 weapon + rune? Also amount of runes from low level bosses are low% of what high levels get. 5th sentence - Adena they didn't spent on consumables, on C weapon/armor/jewel then B weapon/armor/jewels. If you want weapon that you can insert rune - you craft it or buy with adena you saved or you farmed POBs at low level locations or you farmed/crafted items/keys/resources. It's better to start with Common B set +3 and B weapon +3 without rune, then without it and I don't think you need +10 weapon with rune untill level 76+ what you prefer weapon +10 without rune for free or +10 with rune for insane price for new player. 6th sentence - players won't start, no reasoning. 7th sentence - items persist in other form. Runes/enchant for low levels will be addressed. Old players wasn't affected by this change, unless they was farming this bosses for their own benefit. 8th sentence - Runes will be addressed. 9th sentence - no. 10th sentence - no. 11th sentence - It's free coins, free item. Amount of coins drop will be increased and because items can't be dropped or used with karma + old players have lots of high end expensive items, we don't think it will drasticly affect them. As you also can see, amount of places to drop better items ( A grade ) was increased to help old players move forward leaving B grade behind, which will decrease price of it if more items will be on a market. 12th sentence - no reasoning. Most of it are just emotional. From your message I don't see reasoning why this system are bad or why we should change it. I only see concern regarding weapons not having Runes in it. So in case we address it - system will be good?

I agree with both, my opinion is in relation to the CURRENT system, if by any chance there are improvements like the ones mentioned, the changes are welcome. When I joined the server, the runes, items dropped from the bosses helped me a lot to create a certain stability in the game, that's because I joined 3 years after the server was already open. Now without these drops, I can't see a way for the new player to make adena and hold it until the highest levels. I hope that everything is really thought out in a way that doesn't harm/limit even more players to grow in game.

I think the coin system has potential for new players as bosses will be up more and they can farm more regularly, but the system probably needs to be improved so that it is competitive with real gear. Mainly since raids don’t drop runes anymore it would make sense to add runes to the reward list that are also only useable on reward weapons and cap the weapon enchant at say +10 or +12. Getting +10 or so is still extremely rare especially without improved scrolls. (By extension the new weps need to be able to have runes applied or else they are useless) Saying that the system is complete shit is missing the point that it will give new players a dedicated way to get gear, the system seems like it needs to get boosted slightly so that the gear is “easy” but capped where established players have no reason to farm it because +6 B armor and +10 wep is not worth it. As corruptor said, it has potential to bring players together and more importantly have RBs alive for players to go form around since it takes new players a lot of effort.

For me the implementation of the new RB system was right. Newbies are more likely to organize themselves by forming parties, and creating bonds with other players. Now it is necessary to create a way to supply the need for enchantment scroll, weapons and armor D and C, because the source that existed has dried up!

Well, I need to leave my opinion regarding this implementation of coins, if it's worth anything. The worst thing that happened in the club was the implementation of these coins, removing the drop from boss 70 and lower was a pretty radical decision. Other actions could be done to break the farmers, like removing only the enchantments, or something like that. The items and runes they dropped also helped new players make adena. You put that and justified that it would be a way for them to hold on to their adenas to spend at a high level, but what adena? No new players will start playing on this server, let alone now. Instead of increasing the contents, they are apparently limiting, it doesn't make any sense. Not to mention, what will happen to the runes? Will they only be obtained in high level bosses? All this after there are already millions of runes dropped, you now limit? Who is the new player who in their right mind will spend 11k coin on a weapon that not even a rune can place? I don't know what a ridiculous idea this was, soon the items will be "Imprinted" like in essence? Please review this.
