What are you guys talking about?
I'm playing the game for like 4 days, and i have ALL Mystical Sets (with 2 Abyssals) including weapons, armours, totems, accessories.... And i didnt pay yet anything. And most importantly i enjoyed the Events. I think they really did well with Events (unlike other games). I sold Mystic weapons & Epic class weapons on Market...
I dont know about late games, maybe you guys are right. But its good for beginners, and we are not FORCED to buy Pearls. It would give buffs, but nothing too much. I can easily beat any Paying beginner who's playing for a week or more. Last time i was in Arena, i beat more than three lv +60 players with my lv 37 char. and they were like "the hell!". But i think they should give more reward on Arena winning, caz i found it boring winning (even in lv 30 Arena i got like nothing) and left Arena.
well, i can tell you they did well on pretty much everyting.
well i think you guys getting it wrong. If you're comparing me & thinking i'm just a "knob" like other beginners, i'm not. I have played too many games like this (browser, client, mobile), saw those games dying, servers going down, Devs saying "sorry"... and stuff like that. I know the game strategy when i start playing (i never see guides, caz we make those).
I was active 24/7, and completed all events, quests, hard grindings... and all that. Was lv 50 when unlocking 3rd Region (no knob can do that). About 2 Abyssals, you get them from events, if you are well active. And those Mystic equipments, you can't get them from EVENTs (at least beginners can't due to low DP as the reward depends on damage ranking)). You need to know tricks (most game uses similar). I saw people yelling on forum saying they wasted 500k Golds & got nothing big (they have no idea how to get something), it's not really "luck" all time.
Now lets come to what you guys saying. Why not we will get Events & buffs? You guys started playing months ago & in the same server with us (there are no new servers). If we cannot level up fast or get an average CP (not even CLOSE of what you guys have), we cannot do anything because you guys are "overpowered" with enchancements, knowledges, Golds, tons of Lightstones (required to go another dark world)... and all that. So if we donot get up fast, we will not get accepted in top guilds (one of the way to survive), get killed everytime, get frustrated and leave the game saying "its not new players friendly". So what Devs did, was the right thing, and they have no other ways to HOLD new players & to increase the game community.
But as i said before, we have no idea about late games, so we are not against you. If you guys need any updates or buffs, we're with you.
