Pop Card System - Unjustified.

Post by AUST_ZoRrO »

Pop Card System - Unjustified.

Dear Joymax,

Please take note that high level players obtaining seal of star 8th degree can do nothing but NPC these items as they are not usable. If a level 90 obtains a lvl69 SOS item, it is useless for our level range.

I believe you should change this so that SEAL OF STARS obtained through the POP CARD depend on our level range.

EXAMPLE.
Lv70-80 - Obtain 8D SOS
Lvl80-90 - Obtain 9D SOS
Lvl90-100 - Obtain 10D SOS

I hope you can take this consideration seriously.

Thank you.

EDIT: BUT, I did get a short rush when I saw "sword" written in the green orb.

So, wait

If you select the staff for example
So if you lose, that means you still would get a sos/som weapon for any degree?


And whats up with the subscription cards

Incorrect. If you lose you will get something else like subscription card, elixirs, and 8th degree seal of star items. Getting a seal of moon from the POP cards is not possible - as JoyMax has not implemented such rewards. In other words level 100 players (in the near future) will still obtain 8th degree prizes from green cards - which is what I find UNJUSTIFIED!

An sos 8D or a pack of 5 vigors, its your pick. Its joymax, quit complaining. The system sucks anyway, now you can buy items? Next thing we know they will make gold buying legal.

pop card system - the best what could happen!
100$ -> sun weapon (probably)
so why should anyone buy 10b gold increasing at the same time the amount of goldbots to buy a sun with it if he can have it from JM directly and cheaper?

->sun prices will drop

In a sense this does sound compelling. Gold company prices will drop dramatically as users attempt to obtain seal of sun items at significantly lower prices. Perhaps in a way this is ONE way in which they are tackling the gold farming industry.

The seal of star items from POP CARDS can be sold to an NPC for 0 gold. While the vigors can be sold for 3k. Realistically the vigors have more value. If gold buying was (or is) illegal then we would not be seeing all the servers filled with them farming.

So basically you want everyone to obtain sos sets easily? The whole system itself is fail, but what can you do

Well that means lower levels buying Pop Cards will get items, which arn't as worthwhile for them. So therefore they should get cheaper pop cards.

Either way, its a crap system. Money money money.

yes it is all about money.. money makes the world go around. they are a business and they need to make money to pay for programmers updates bandwidth servers and so on. it is just the way it is. a business is out to make as much money as it can for it's inverters. and they are doing a good job on the business/money end of this business.

I agree that flooding the market with suns will decrease the advantage goldbuyers and bots have in the game. I just hope the extra funds joymax gets from this are used to hire an active GM :( It's unlikely, I know.

The only reason I haven't bought any of these, id because I'd only want an Sosun spear 10D ;p Not worth spending a ton of money on a chance like that.
