What would you change...

Post by maxietheboss »

If you could buy a SRO license and set up your own servers. I'd change the SP rates so that u could make better/funner builds so that the game would be more about PvP than PvE and farming. And i'd remove seal of star/moon/sun

I would edit one of the xbow skills so they cant knock back ppl that are knocked down. I've always hated that skill.

Exp/Sp Rated x1000.
... Honestly if I were to go on about a list of things i would change in this game i would probably pass 100 things.. So I'll leave it at that 1.


@ Above.
Horrible idea.
None of the Chinese would even go into the mixed server... Therefore you would have to euro and one Chinese... This game is based on the silk road don't change the whole story line.
That would also ruin trading...

Start ip-banning whoever bots, buys gold, etc etc yada yada, and keep doing it on a very regular base.
Fixing the imbalance between builds and races.
Increase sp rate, maybe exp rate aswell.

Then perhaps more events, and stuff, but the things listed above would be on my priority list.

Increase SP rate so farming isn't required. Its by far the worst part of the game.
Exp rate can stay imo.

Pff everyone is saying increase exp/sp rates. Chances are if you owned your own server, you would keep the exp/sp rates the same. With increased rates, getting to 90 FF wouldn't take so long, therefore less silk would be bought, and less money for YOU! But...yeah i would get rid of Euros by replacing their account with a chinese account the same level of their build choice or something like that :D And add more events, and Fortress War every week for 4hours! And..uhm..no Sox!! Yeaaah!!

-SP/XP Rate
-Remove the euros or split the servers like: Eldorado(Chinese) and -Eldorado(Euro)
-PVP Events
-Job events where GMs help traders out
-Unique spawn event
-Sos/Moon/Sun only for looks, but same stats as a regular weapon
-Every1 who begs for money -> 1st time: Warning, 2nd time: 3day ban, 3th time: IP BAN
-I'd make the unique hunting like this: 1-30 can kill TG, 35-55 Uru, 55-75 Isy, 75-85 Lord, 85-X(whatever the cap will be) Shaitan
-Better Service
-Active GMs
-Bot ban every 2-3 days
-Higher Mastery level:)
-EDIT: Better Pet Filter, pet can pickup alchemy bags without picking up arrows too, and a bigger pet inventory:)
-EDIT2: In PVP at any gate if u kill some1 10+ lvls lower in pvp u become lvl 15 murder,
thats about it:P

6. FIX FW BUGS
7. More uniques
8. Reduce item mall items prices and remove all items that increase defence/damage
9. Introduce guild quests.
10. Make elixers stackable + elements stack 10,000
11. Increase inventory space + pet inventory space

1/ Make a server for Chinese and 2nd server for Euro
2a/ Lower sp costs for Chinese (and lower a litte for Euro
OR
2b/ Increase xp/sxp per mob
3/ Do random event as a GM
4/ Ban bots actively
5/ Remove Sun, only Sos or Som (even though i am a sun user myself :p )
6/ Add "Guild" for hunters/traders And for Thiefs (when someone registers as a trader/hunter OR thief; he gets added into the respective Guild). This would cause that people can find each other easier when jobbing ^^ (traders find hunters & vice versa; thiefs would be able to call for help easier )
7/ Add a (pvp) Challenge-system to gain points and try to reach rank #1 ^^
-> U can only challenge a player within a certain lvl range, but the GAP also plays a factor; lvl 90ff vs lvl 90 gap9; we all know who will win. Only can duel a player 3 times per 24 hour.
Can challenge as much players as u like; if they are within lvl range.
Group Combat = ctf
8/ Add extra rewards for high hunter/trader/thief lvls (special suits*, xtra money,...)
9/ Item Mall transports, able to buy at npc; will only have horse-speed
10/ Increase number of allowed people at fortress war. Add some extras for the attackers. Attacking guilds/unions will not be able to attack each other as long as 75% of the fortress isn't conquered.
11/ Hunters & Traders get new suits = variant of the ctf suit + current suit*

* The higher lvl hunter/trader; the bigger the pikes/flags on the backs will become + cooler clothes (like special designs/tattoos + higher int&str increase)

Most of these ideas are from WoW, not trying to say this game would be alot better if it was like WoW, rather it would be more enjoyable if it had some of it's features.

1- A time limit to how long you can powerlevel, if not no powerleveling at all.

2- Anyone 5 levels above the unique boss (tigergirl, etc) can't touch it.

3- Event prizes that aren't things you can already buy via NPC.

4- A pvp arena system, one that intertwines all players from different servers.

5- Increase server capacity to OVER 9000!!!!!

6- Change the measurement of currency in this game into metric (I.e. 1 gold == 100 silver == 100,000 copper)

7- Quest that DON'T require you to kill the same mob over 9000 times.

8- An area or system that connects all stalls of each town.

9)-Stall network providing you info on who is selling the item and where he or she is located.

10)-A mail system that allows you to mail both letters and items, etc.(3 years I've been playing, no doubt that will make this game easier)

That buying skills thing is cool, but you gotta remove gold drops after lvl 20. Also you should invent something that you can gain money by trading/hunting/thiefing. Another thing is that you should only be allowed to attack some1 3 lvls lower than you. If this is the case it would really be something that has to with the ancient silkroad

1. Acitve GM's
2. Keep the Exp rate the same, but lower the required amounts + Quests give more.
3. Higher Skill exp rate, skills cost less. (Also like the buying skills idea tho)
4. Ban bots
5. Max online limit (like 12 hours a day, so you can stall but not overnight)
6. Remove euro or decrease its power.
7. Delete Som / Sun, give sos the sun shine.
8. Old Job system, but you have to put on the suit in town
9. Bug fixes
10. Fix other annoyances.
