Suggestion: NX Rewards for enormous effort.

I believe in having more ways of earning cash early in the game. Hence I supported the idea of an achievement system.

An achievement system by definition means you reward players for an achievement. Is reaching a certain level an achievement? Sure. But it's also part of the gameplay, and getting new skills/jobs/hunting grounds is all part of that process already. Sure, you can add a little bonus to it, but it's already rewarding itself. Same goes for killing a boss, this should be rewarding enough already, why else would you go kill it?

For me, a nice example of an achievement would be killing all the area bosses of a certain region. Ofcourse, there are a lot of questlines involving this, but for as far as I know there's no global reward for doing this. Ofcourse this requires some time to get around with it, but busy person A can do it in a few days, and hardcore gamer B just does it in one go. But in the end result is the same, both A and B gained the reward (note, not saying Cash per se) in an equal amount of time.

An other reason why I dislike this suggestion, where you gain more Cash in a later stage of the game, is because by then Cash has become a luxuary. You do not need that buy that pet anymore, you do not need to buy a decent hair/face style anymore... All your options to use your cash (especially Vote Cash) have become luxuary, where early in game you crave for that little extra Cash, later on you'll just have an abundance. Lets face it, HP washing is luxuary and shouldn't come cheap at all.

In short, for me this suggestion will just create an even bigger gab between veteran players that have been enjoying more favorable vote rewards over new players. It will do so by discrimination others based on their free time. Gaining levels is already rewarding enough, as @Bulba mentioned.

 

I think this is a good idea and its not "Rich get richer" because you don't need to be rich to get levels, you just need the grind factor.

 

Ew. Not by levels, please. I don't like it....The vet players already hold a majority of the meso in circulation, making the gap that much bigger.

 

Maplestory is not the way how chemistry works.

 

It doesn't have to be by level right?
I thought the idea about killing all area bosses was a nice one.
It's fun to do and it's nice to see some rewards as well.
Maybe make it so that u have to kill bosses in a party? This allows players to get in touch with eachother as well with things other than pq

 

I agree with this opinion but there are MUCH nicer ways to say this. This is pretty inappropriate and unprofessional coming from a staff member.

 

I still fail to see how 5k nx a day is not enough. The entire cash shop is a luxury.

 

How is cash shop a luxury? I wouldn't stand all day in FM to sell my stuff. If something like the merchant wouldn't be avaiable I'm pretty sure the playerbase would drop dramatically. It has just become a part of the game

 

Hmm after reading this again when I'm not completely tired as fuck, I've decided that my opinion on this is that it would be nice to get some extra ways of obtaining NX.
This is only due to me HP Washing, Which I understand is my own choice and my own waste of NX, but as a thief its kind of required if you plan to go late-game. Although you are
adding some NX items to donor shop, I'd prefer not to pay for every NX item that I'd like to have, same goes for the hair/eyes.
So to conclude...
I do agree with you to a point @Stas but on another level I can see where they are coming from with the "its a luxury".

Just my final input, agree or not... all good.

 

5k nx a day is MORE than enough, imo.

I could understand if clearing area bosses gave like say a one time nx award or something, and can only be done once or whatever, but having it as a continuous reward would blow up the economy. If it's a one time reward, everyone has an equal share to get it, it's not repeatable so no overloads, and probably shouldn't be enough to really matter (I mean like 1k, or preferably just a pre-determined nx item like a traveling merchant, notes, item tags, or safety charms.

You don't NEED nx to get meso. It's just more convenient and people who don't farm and don't sell their items want the nx to balance it out. I'll be blunt, so hate me if you wish: it's a crutch.

 

From what I've seen from the admins on this server i suspect this idea/suggestion will be denied. This is a perfect example of rich get richer. That's the bottom line.

 

Haha. Pretty much. Except not because i said so. I'm just playing captain obvious here and pointing out... well, the obvious.
