    Horntail needs new testing for disconnections.

    Gachapon changes (also for vote Gachapon):
    We have given consideration to the fact that the supply of certain scrolls have been severely lacking due to them being obtained from Gachapons that are not used very much; hence in the near future, there will be a change so that the same obtainable items and scrolls will be available from all Gachapons. However, Gachapons in job-specific towns will still retain a higher likelihood of getting job-related items. We believe this should help to resolve the issue faced by players where there is a lack of certain scrolls.

    Introduction of the Mob Gachapon ticket beta test:
    Introduced in this revision is a new variation of Gachaphon tickets that will be dropped by mobs. These tickets are Silver and will work differently from the Vote Gachapon tickets that you know of. We have also noted concerns of farming imbalance between certain classes, and thus these tickets will work on a custom drop rate formula. This change will be in the beta phase and players will not be able to exchange these tickets yet. Do note that after beta testing, tickets MAY be wiped, depending on the outcome of our observations. The objective of introducing these tickets is to reward active gameplay, so that players have an additional incentive to play the game instead of merely voting. To address the issue of players only farming for the exact scrolls that they need and not increasing supply to the economy, we have decided on Gachapon tickets over direct scroll drops. Depending on the beta test outcomes, this change may or may not stay. Once again, our emphasis is that the Silver Gachapon tickets are NOT identical to the regular vote ones, and we have also made custom drop rate formulas to try and balance the farming as much as possible for all jobs. The drop rate formula is time and effort based; and aims to be equal for all classes.

    Thank you for your continuous support and help in improving the server.

    In addition to this, we already stated that most of the server preferred to have farmable scrolls rather than gachapon tickets. With gach tickets we are still behind an rng wall of getting what we need, a wall that has 500 paths or more. This also kills the incentive of coming to the top. Why come to skeles where it takes longer to kill which will lead to less tickets than maybe wraiths, where the spawn is high and one shottable. This also leads low level players to gain end game gear that they will probably most likely not use seeing as most of the server doesnt make it past 90~ . Even then, gach still gives some horrid rates for some items, like ele wands in ellinia, or onehand 30% at perion, or having all earring scrolls coming from sleepywood. Gacha is still imbalanced to implement tickets. We've stated that this gach would be a perfect mix when scrolls are farmable, elsewise getting items this way is still hugely rng based.

    Probably because the drop rate at skelegons is higher than at wraiths. Even one or two shotting monsters shouldn't limit the drops you'll get that greatly.

    These tickets will have different (much better) value. Although adding pumpkin pies does sound tempting, it's a fair bet you won't be finding those in the gachapon.

    Whatever will Happen now, It has to be 100% transparency in my opinion.
    I am hyped but also kinda sceptical...
    We had our poll so You know What Community wants!
    Personal I think this is no Solution ...
    But who am I to decide that with my Lag of Information on planned things.

    Merry Christmas to all of You guys
    Have Some Nice days !

    Nice. Made farming between classes equal and also made it impossible for players to dodge the market entirely. I am satisfied, secluding farming to the 1-70 game to allow for an even playing field isn't necessary with a 'custom formula' :p

    Getting a scroll from a mob is also RNG, if it drops the scroll you want or another item or nothing at all. :p

    Thought you were talking about elderwraiths at first... Then I realized the spawn rate sucks and you were talking about Junior Wraiths. How about going to FoG? That has a pretty good spawn rate lol. I would say mp3, but I haven't even been there on this server so idk what it looks like or gs.

    Ill wait to see rates and test out before i comment on how good/bad it is. I suggest others do the same.

    As far as i can see/understand these special tickets will be considerably better than normal gach and as long as there is a steady supply of items coming through the market, this could work just as well as the A2 option. It all depends on execution.

    If the feature gets accepted after our beta testing, yes.
