Gearing up etc.

ANC Source: You forgot medusa
EXC Source: Pretty much any non-exping webzen event

1. Hell no. According to the changelog, they're actually more than double since the new golden invasion (new means golden monsters in maps like dungeon, icarus, kantru, aida, lacleon, etc) is set to every 3 hours instead of once a day. People hunt them more now so thats why but definetly they aren't less, guaranteed.
You played old seasons, you camed back to mu after a long time and now you're not accustomed with the new stuff.
Jewels have a smaller drop chance from bok but they are a default drop of boks, always were, most servers use such settings, we use it too since there are lots of goldens and there were less sets available in boks, nothing wrong with that. Since more sets are now available they could indeed be removed.
People suggested and wanted items like great dragon, darksoul, etc from boks as the max in bok+5 was dark phoenix until not long time ago. Now that they were added, that's not good either?
There is no way in pleasing everyone and I don't intend in doing that anyway as there will always going to be someone who likes/dislikes something.

2. Erohim was never ment to be a source where it rains with exec items, by default it has to drop more non-exe than exe if you plan to have an active lorendeep event. Deep event is removed on most servers so it's not even working exactly because you can't please both LOT owners and deep event participants at the same time, understood? If you want an active lorendeep event which was thinked for non-rr servers you have to balance it because erohim will respawn every 1 second so do a simple math and realize what that means in a rr server, otherwise just disabling deepevent as other servers did and keeping erohim as a LOT boss alone is the way to go.

3. You can't stack 380 items in every boss that you like to hunt, there are already plenty of bosses that provide 380 exe items. Selupan has a default drop of 30% exe items like ashcrow, iris, etc and 70% sockets - it's a sockets items boss, it drops up to 10 items and that cannot be changed. Most server use it's default settings for a reason, we do the same.

4. BC remains as is, it's an average grinding and exping event with lots of mobs. Other than the reward itself you can't do much changes on it.

5. Pleasantly surprised (it's the default drop + rf and mg 380 complete items since they are not part of events like imperial for example so they had to be added in various bosses drops)

6. It's been explained before, find the thread that's been posted in suggestions forum and read it. Hardcoded game setting including the cooldown, you can't add one like BC/DS, etc has every x hours. It sucks when we can't change things the way we want being bound to the game creators settings but a private server is a private server.

7. Maya hands got default drop, both exe and non-exe items being good as is since hands can be exploited on rr servers.
Nightmare has 380 and high end exe. Balgass has 380 exe items, how is this not good?

You must realize that MU doesn't have much to offer in terms of sets. It doesn't have thounds of items like WoW has for example, people will mainly use 3-4 sets max in the entire game so you can't stack all end game gears in all bosses and leave the rest of the items being excluded from the game. Also, you're saying that there are many exec items but only some usable, this is kinda logic when max exec option is 2 right? It's just like having fo items and obviously 2-3 opt would be hell of a lot more often than a 6 opt item as for lack of players over time, this is a situation that happens to every server by time and especially during summer period, nothing new under the sunshine when it comes to muonline so don't be that surprised as all mu servers experience the same and all of them need a refresh after a certain ammount of time. Take a look at the top servers that wipe everything in less than a year and you'll understand. It's how the MU community has been educated over the years and yes, I know it sucks so damn hard as I never liked it myself but thats how it works and if few years ago was pretty ok, it's getting worse and worse as the game gets older and it's being more focused on the afk-ing features.

I do realize you want to captch up faster with the others since you joined the server less than a week ago and you have a total of 7 resets and most of these are suggestions/complaints/ideas that you've seen inside the alliance chat as I doubt you hunted bigger events than goldens, however keep in mind that not all suggestions are good suggestions and after reading like five times the word 'offensive' in your post make sure you know that some people feel offended when their idea gets rejected and they shouldn't take it personal.


- In any case, I agree the 2 exe options item ratio should be increased and because of this, there will be a significant improvement over the exec + 2 options drops on the next maintenance and the rate will be decided by the server. I've tested it already and they do drop a lot more often so this will become effective after the next reboot, in a few days. (we'll announce it in changelogs)

- The boxes of kundun should be fine as they are now. It's the players who wanted items like great dragon, darksoul, etc to be added in bok+5 and now they are. Items like iris, ashcrow can be found in lower boks and selupan only so removing them from one of these two will leave a single option of obtaining such items which isn't recommended. Moving them somewhere else ... all event bags are kinda full so it would only do more harm. As for the jewels inside it, keep in mind boks were completly reconfigured not long ago so with the actual drop configuration, removing them seems a fine idea but before that when there were less sets available to drop it was alright. Waiting for some feedback on this.

- Kundun will be probably set to respawn every 6 hours starting with next server reboot. I've thinked about this during the last week so I'm opened for some feedback (honest ones not selfish feedbacks)


PS: It's a public forum so there will always be flame, no server and no game is flame free

PS2: Edited some of the thread aspects and make it look a bit more organized so refresh it in case you people were reading it while I was writing it.

 

Boks don't have duplicate items inside, each bok shall drop certain items according to their level so per your example, when it comes to boks, black dragon can only be obtained from bok+4 not 1 2 3 or 5.

Custom events are a feature of the server files that we are using. I doubt more will be added but if they will be in the future, it's up to the coders to decide.
The only common custom event i've seen in most mu servers is the pvp last stand event and that's about it while the rest of the events we got can only be found in the server files that we use.

 

That 2 years statement is obviosuly exagerated but that's what most people do when they suggest a rate increase, however certain drops like from boks and some few other indeed lacked the higher chance of obtaining a +2 exec option items like other bosses have (erohim, medusa, kundun, balgass,etc) as they use a different rate formula which will be changed after the reboot to match a better one that the mentioned bosses use. Also yes, there are plenty of people with +15 items too but nowdays people are playing low/medium servers but want easy grinding at the same time, kinda weird thinking indeed but that's how it and I agree it should be slight easier than is now.

 

Yes, however this is not the right thread for that so lets stick to the subject and send me a pm instead ; erohim should spawn in the last 5 minutes, final wave spawns in last 10 minutes.

When i thinked on the 6 hours kundun it was because it drops 3 items while medusa/selupan drop up to 10 and those 1-2 players won't be on 24/7 to hunt it everytime obviously but maybe yea, we should leave it as it is now. Let me know how you see things different for the other events like selupan, nightmare, medusa, etc? Doesn't the same thing applies too?
And no idea what you're trying to say in the last part of your post, please rephrase.

 

1. There will be a success rate increase for 380 items after the reboot but it may be improved even more when there will be a competition for the castle, as obtaining 380 and high exe items is more than decent considering 2 opt rate will be increased and thats about it when it comes to muonline items, however castle siege has always been a "show off" event so besides the exclusive map, increased rate and tax you can't make the lord mix worh big for the owners like adding one extra option or so for example as it would bring a huge advantage over the others.
2. There will be some changes here as it's been already mentioned in the previous posts but when it comes for sockets, selupan is the type of boss you have to kill multiple times to get some good stuff and we won't change the game concept while a "crap" low tier socket set with 2 sockets is better than an exe one and the rate of max socketed items is global and can't be set different per individual event.

 

Not entirely but you contributed a lot when the competition got killed based on a decision to ally with the CS opponents, just as @Ezekiel and others said will happen, which is why you have 0 opponents now and strategy is kinda impossible when there is 1 against 10 and you know that. The strange thing is that you're ok with that while in general people see pvp as the fun part of the game. If I were you I would split the alliance and have some fun time in CS pvp just like you said you would if it gets to this and you can always make changes if needed, but that's up to you. Anyway this is an off-topic subject.

Tomorrow we'll have our maintenance so a lot of stuff will be applied.
