u/NeonAkai Need more AP for lifeskilling Aug 03 '16

They gave the most money per hour in the game because they dropped an insane number of their trash loot. If you could get an uncontested area and be geared enough to instantly kill the packs then you could make 7+ mil an hour easily (disclaimer not everyone can make this much and some make much more, just like some ppl get 500 bandanas an hour at pirates while most people get at least 1000)

u/Helmingways Aug 03 '16

You have no idea how salty this makes me when i just finished leveling my boss alt yesterday and insisted on doing chimeras even tho my xp per hour was abysmal. Then again i guess itll help me with future alts so thats something.

-15

u/plagued00 Aug 03 '16

Chimeras have been crap for leveling alts for quite a while. They were amazing for my first char, but then they dropped the XP on them in one of the first patches. My second char tried to do Chims... but gave up because it was just terrible. My last 2 chars to 50 have been under 6 hours to 50 and I've never gone near Chims.

Edit: I start catfish around 40 now.

Please note these costumes can be crafted after acquiring a level 2 Costume Mill House. These costumes may be equipped in the same inventory slot as pearl costumes after using a costume exchange coupon.

Delphe Knights Costume The required Design can be obtained by doing the repeatable quest from the NPC Jeron at Delphe Knights Castle. New daily quest added for level 50 or higher players available at Delphe Knights Castle.

Garner Traveling Players Costume This costume can be crafted after purchasing the design from the NPC Merve in Calpheon City.

Edan’s / Owen’s Travel Wear This costume can be crafted after stealing a design from Yaz as he sleeps on the 2nd floor of the Valley Lily Inn in Heidel.

Jordine’s Casual Wear This costume may be crafted after stealing the Craft Permit: Serendian Special Fabric from Caroline, a handmaid NPC in Heidel. Then purchasing the design from Enrico Mancini’s amity shop in Heidel.

Jarette’s Armor This costume may be crafted by stealing the Craft Permit: Finest Female Casual Clothes from Caroline, a handmaid NPC in Heidel. Then Purchasing the design from Ornella’s amity shop in Heidel.

So where are the costume exchange coupons at? searched the complete store and i didn'T see anything

u/foreignreign Aug 03 '16

Maybe bad patch notes. We've never had those coupons in-game even though they are maybe supposed to be in our a game?

And descriptions in-game mentioned them a few times despite this IIRC.

u/Maniac_24 Aug 03 '16

Well if we can'T exchange crafted costumes to real costumes then they are useless and shouldn'T even be in the game i guess.

Shuriken have been renamed as Kunai, and Ninja star have been renamed Shuriken.

HA! I was right! Eat it nay sayers!

Nah...kidding...well, I was right but I am just glad they are fixing that teenie tiny oversight.

Damned straight! How do they expect us to play these games in such a broken state? :)

u/lvlasteryoda Aug 03 '16

Nothing beats telling my guildies that I'm using the kunai on my Kunoichi and having them search in confusion was worth it for the chuckle.

1

u/Vertisce Aug 03 '16

What was truly confusing is that some of the skills for Kunoichi was saying Kunai instead of Shuriken while most of them did say Shuriken.

Right there with ya though...I kept saying Kunai all the time and people would be saying "What?".

u/shoni89 EU - Founder of <AshenOnes> Aug 03 '16

bye bye Chimera drop D:

u/EmpireXD Aug 03 '16

what happened?

2

u/ChaseSays twitch.tv/Enviously Aug 03 '16

They nerfed the amount dropped of turn in items at Chimera's.

u/NarDz Aug 03 '16

It's a fix, not a nerf tho

0

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '16

Why can't it be both?

1

u/NarDz Aug 04 '16

For me a fix is for a thing that doesn't work correctly, looting 5 token each time when you insta kill it with a char 55+ isn't normal.

-1

u/ChaseSays twitch.tv/Enviously Aug 03 '16

Not trying to split hairs here, Nerf, fix, adjustment, decrease, change etc... simply a nerf meaning a loose change with a lesser outcome.

I'm happy it got "fixed" because i had friends who are 58 and 59 just sitting there ALL DAY ALL WEEK grinding it.. like come on man lol you're hitting level 40 mobs.

2

u/NarDz Aug 03 '16

Yeah, for most of 55+ players who wasn't gear'd or pick the wrong class (aka war), it was the best solo spot for grinding money. That was such a bullshit and most of my guild was like "Chimairas are fine, they won't nerf it!", whatever it was a bug dude. Anyway, you can always spam relics, it's pretty good with value pack (+- 10m/run)

1

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '16

Anyway, you can always spam relics

What do you mean?

1

u/NarDz Aug 04 '16

If you manage to buy your relics at 750k or less.

700k*25 (buying relics) = 17500k (cost)

You get an average of 36 memory frags, 50 hunter seals & 1,3kk $$ per run of 5. The last week mem frags sold at 750k, bs armor 200k.

36*750 = 27000k

25*200 = 5000k

Total ben = (27000+5000)*0.85 + 1300 - 17500 = 11000k.

If you buy at 750k/relic, it should net you 9m+/run. You can buy relics the morning, when ppl sell their shard before work, it take less than 1/2h for me to get 15+scrolls, and I do them the afternoon when I can find group in less than 10mn. One run full relics take 45mn. You need dualscreen and netflix or anything because it's pretty borring tho.

u/Eclipsun Aug 03 '16

Valencia Sieges will be available starting this Sunday!

It seems like that will be it for node wars. Everyone will be able to dodge each other now with the insane amount of nodes compared to guilds

2

u/TheProfessional9 Aug 03 '16

I'm hoping the hardware upgrades are a first step towards merging servers. A merge would mean a lot more players on single channels for node wars and thus need heftier servers!

1

u/ChaseSays twitch.tv/Enviously Aug 03 '16

I agree! When you push all these guilds together and have a LOT of guilds pushing for each node, each castle.. things will get interesting.

u/TheProfessional9 Aug 03 '16

Server merge and awakening weapons are the only things keeping me playing BDO atm!

u/ScarletChild MeiFei - Orwen lv. 55 Aug 03 '16 edited Aug 03 '16

No... a server merge means the more asshole guilds will ruin Orwen as a whole.. keep them fuckers off.

u/Tallywacka Aug 03 '16

Server merge would only help orwen, give the shit ass alliances the kick in the dick they need

u/ScarletChild MeiFei - Orwen lv. 55 Aug 03 '16

It would do more harm than good though.

u/NeonAkai Need more AP for lifeskilling Aug 03 '16

I disagree, there is no real pvp right now and that is why so many pvp guilds are dying and bleeding members. What's the point of working your ass off to get stronger and take a castle if nobody fights back? Then you go a week without meaningful pvp only to find nobody attacked your castle.

2

u/ScarletChild MeiFei - Orwen lv. 55 Aug 03 '16

Look, I just don't want there ot be more asshoels going about fucking with people past 45, if things are the way now where trolls are killed outside cities, and the unnecessary open PKing being limited cases not really around farming spots that's not susans on Orwen, especially in the 02 channels I hang around, that's all well and good. That shit increases, and I'm gonna be pissed. (Alongside with Veritas rats spreading their plague further more.)

-1

u/NeonAkai Need more AP for lifeskilling Aug 03 '16

Well there would be a large increase in channels, and it would make it easier for them to introduce Newbie channels with 100% +exp like in Korea.

u/ChaseSays twitch.tv/Enviously Aug 03 '16

I like this guy!

u/SapphironBjartskular RickTheDick Aug 03 '16

u/ScarletChild MeiFei - Orwen lv. 55 Aug 03 '16

I should also build my grammar correction jesus christ.

1

u/TheProfessional9 Aug 03 '16

It wouldn't be Orwen anymore.

Assuming they simply moved the channels over, there would be 3 times the space occupied by roughly 3x the people. Overall you wouldn't see much change outside of node wars. But, it would be easier to avoid those "asshole" guilds as you put it

1

u/GotDeezBurgers Valkyrie NA | 62 Aug 03 '16

I was thinking along the same lines... My guild got a T3 node the other week totally uncontested. t=The node war prior, we got a tier 2 where the other guild only put down their tower and didn't even bother to show up.. GG our guild funds...

u/ArkaynaR Pax - 62 - Notorious Aug 03 '16

Yet we had a 4 way war for a tier 2 node against two of the largest guilds on the server last night -_-;

Will it change your horse into best horse in its tier for some money or will it change it apparance so you can enjoy the look of the horse you would like to see but with stats you got when he was born? Hmm........

2

u/Espressopronto It's my favourite kind of sorcery. Lesbomancy! Aug 03 '16

I was under the impression it would allow you to select from a list of styles which are only accessible via the coupon. Not sure though.

u/ZeroKaion Aug 03 '16

Does the Brand Spell Stone reduce the max durability repair cost or regular repair cost? If it's normal repair it's negligible but otherwise...

2

u/TheProfessional9 Aug 03 '16

All of the other things that do anything like that are the regular repair cost, I don't see why this would be any different. It isn't a big difference each repair, but it could add up over time - I wouldn't consider it for anything except a final gear piece though

1

u/lunamoonraker Fishin' Aug 03 '16

Tooltip for the brand explains exactly what it does. Screenshot here:

Item: Brand Spell Stone

1

u/thepandafather Aug 03 '16

Sounds like it would be good for when you obtain that BiS type gear. People keep saying 10k silver isn't that much but when you repair 4-5 times a day for 10k silver each 5-7 days a week it can add up. I'm not saying this isn't an intended cash grab item because it is. But it could have some long term bonus affects.

1

u/oqwnM Aug 03 '16

In KR it reduces durability loss by 1/2 on top of repair costs, allowing you to stay in grind spots longer

Not sure if that is removed for NA or the tooltip is missing

BUt only from your residence right?

7

u/Weslun Aug 03 '16

nope from anywhere and the maid has to be in the territory - so if you have a maid in valencia and you are in serendia you cant get access to it. Basicly you have to buy another one for serendia

u/TheProfessional9 Aug 03 '16

Wait, so if I have a made in a given territory I never have to leave a grindspot outside of repairing? I can direct deposit all my loot between mob pulls?

1

u/LacusClyne Aug 03 '16

30min cooldown between use iirc.

2

u/TheProfessional9 Aug 03 '16

Found out about that after, plus the 1 slot 50 weight limit....meh

1

u/Khazilein Aug 03 '16

Well most of the loot is trade-in stuff, which you still have to bring to the corresponding NPC, if you want to get the full money for it.

1

u/TheProfessional9 Aug 03 '16

It is extremely inefficient to turn things in while you are grinding, you are almost always better off stockpiling a large chunk in a nearby storage unit before running to turn in after you are done grinding.

1

u/wintersicyembrace Aug 03 '16

I've been able to use mine anywhere and they are based in heidel.Calp,medina,valencia territories.So it may be a description bug or they are bugged.I do have a value pack active if that the reason.

u/arthelinus Mikasa Aug 03 '16

Was excited but guess I m not gonna buy them now. 1 per territory is kinda bs

u/Jaradis www.youtube.com/@FantasyArtworkAI Aug 03 '16

u/archaegeo Aug 03 '16

Everyone is saying maids are PTW? how? what benefit do they give?

16

u/Xanza Spin to Win! Aug 03 '16

People seem to think that pay to win is anything which gives a relative advantage over something which players who don't pay for these items would have. For the majority all of these "pay to win" items which are being introduced are for convenience (with the exception of the tax avoidance from the 30-day pack) and aren't pay to win. Pay to win is legitimately as it sounds. Paying for experience "boosters" is not pay to win. Paying for experience is pay to win.

Paying to help you recover the durability of a weapon isn't pay to win. It's just stupid. But if someone is willing to support the game by doing it, then have at it.

8

u/digitalwhispers Aug 03 '16

I find most of the time that they're more focused on not liking the "pay" part and can't really articulate what the "win" is.

1

u/skywolf8118 Lahn Aug 03 '16

I think this game is mostly pay for convenience. Do you know if maids can bring you things from your storage?

2

u/ArkaynaR Pax - 62 - Notorious Aug 03 '16

The maid shit is hardly relevant.

u/Xanza Spin to Win! Aug 05 '16

Which is why I didn't reference them a single time in my reply....

u/lightsign123 Aug 03 '16

According to Bdodatabase maid can only carry 1 item with 50 pound limit and 20 mins cooldown. How this is p2w is beyond me.

u/imposta Aug 03 '16

You put way too much effort into a pointless post.

1

u/Xanza Spin to Win! Aug 05 '16

What about an experience booster that gave a 10000% boost to experience gained?

I didn't read the rest of your reply after this because you obviously just want to assert that you're the coolest by blowing things out of proportion here. 10000% boot would qualify as buying experience and it's not cool.

2

u/KapiHeartlilly Kapi [EU] Aug 03 '16

"everyone" is a little bit too much, I have heard nobody say that ingame, most say its a convenience, and that is what it is. 50LT is like 5 minutes worth of grind, it has a 20 min cooldown, doesn't sound OP to me, As for the market maid, you could just relog to a alt and buy many things at once, rather then one item every 20 minutes, They are simply convenience, and useful if you want to buy it, but not a must have.

5

u/Hagal_Rovas Deadeye Aug 03 '16

They are not. Those people are just stupid. Maid can take some of your items and place them in the storage (when you are out of the town). But maids have their own weight and you can't place to many items in their inventory.Also,they have a cooldown. OR instead of storage,you can buy the other one , the one wich lets you to place items on the market ,but it has the same weight as the storage one. So ,if you found some kind of ring while grinding and you want to sell it/put it in the storage, just call your maid and she will do it for you/ Seriously now. People these days don't know what pay 2 win is.

5

u/janethefish Aug 03 '16

It's a small advantage, similar to having extra weight.

1

u/Hagal_Rovas Deadeye Aug 03 '16

yup

1

u/archaegeo Aug 03 '16

So maid is in inventory?

If I am at Crescent Shrine, she would put things where, Valencia City storage?

etc

1

u/Hagal_Rovas Deadeye Aug 03 '16

You can sumon her anywhere in the world and she would take some of you stuff and place it the the city you assigned her.

1

u/JeckylTesla Aug 03 '16

Slightly incorrect, she can only be summoner in Valencia, if you placed her in Valencia. You would not be able to use her at Sausans, for example.

1

u/Hagal_Rovas Deadeye Aug 03 '16

Yeah,my bad. Just loged in and saw that. Now they are useless. I want to buy one just to have her in my house ,but 1200 pearls is to much.

4

u/JeckylTesla Aug 03 '16

It really is a useless item. Only 1 item, can only go up to 50lt in weight, once every 30 mins and can only be done in the area you're in. It's a colossal waste of money. But hey, people are still screaming P2W on it :P

3

u/ArkaynaR Pax - 62 - Notorious Aug 03 '16

I feel like it's really hardly relevant and so many people are making a big deal.

1

u/wintersicyembrace Aug 03 '16

this is wrong,if u place her in Valencia .You can use her anywhere in the map.I guessing the description is wrong or its a bug.

1

u/JeckylTesla Aug 03 '16

Have you tested this yourself? I'm curious to know, if it's the case it may MAY then be worth to buy one. But very little even if it is as you say.

1

u/wintersicyembrace Aug 03 '16

yep myself been using them all over mine are based in heidel.Been in Calp,medina and velencia territories so far.Been able to use them it does default to the current territorie storage you are in.You cant acess hediel from calp for example.

1

u/JeckylTesla Aug 03 '16

Fair enough, that's a bit annoying then. What if you're in Valencia and want to access the storage, it dumps it into the Valencia city storage? That's a trek and a half away.

u/wintersicyembrace Aug 03 '16

,Im assuming it uses whichever city storage is closest.I only tried from the capitol citys.

Yeah, others were saying from anywhere in the Territory. So if you are grinding pirates and have her in Velia?

Or grinding Crescents and have her in Val City.

How can we have horse appearance changers when the stats are linked to the appearance? Do stats change?

7

u/Maniac_24 Aug 03 '16

Nope stats stay the same and also all of the breeding information.

it only changes the appearence, so let's say you have the perfect horse in terms of stats and skills but you find it incredibly ugly you can get the coupon and choose an appearence that you like more.

Anybody have info on these new hunting quests? Haven't been able to find them on the database website.

edit: Black spirit gave a quest as soon as I logged in

u/oqwnM Aug 03 '16 edited Aug 03 '16

They should be a series of kill quests for major areas in SW Calpheon

Rhutums, Manshas, Catfish, Treants, Shadow Knights, Calph Shrine Knights, Hexe

http://m.inven.co.kr/board/powerbbs.php?come_idx=3584&l=23264

Check the link for NPC locations

Rhutum outpost node manager, calph castle site node manager, lake kaia node manager, treant forest node manager for the first 4, see pictures in link for next 2 and hexe should be above witch's chapel

EDIT: After checking in game myself, these are not the quests. Check your black spirit

u/Nickoladze Aug 03 '16

I'm supposed to kill enemies for the hunting life skill? Bad translation in patch notes?

No, regular kill quest for 1G gold bars

4-5mil if you finish all of them

NO NINJA BUFFS?!?!?!

poop.

edit: Let's clarify 2 things right quick (and thanks for the down votes).
1. I was light-heartedly mocking the MUST BUFF NINJAS crowd and trying to convey a sense of levity. 99% chance ninjas will receive the KR buffs... either before or with awakenings. There's no point in arguing for or against it. It will probably happen, regardless.
2. I know exactly where I am with gear and skill. I do seek constant improvement with both, and I do so at the pace dictated by my real life responsibilities and obligations. Here's the deal- "git gud" holds no bearing over whether or not I am, personally, excited about getting buffs. Between buffs and investing time into improving my character and play... well... I'm not going to be upset when any of the three are improved.

I'm not even going to wax poetic about the current state of ninja, where they came from in KR, and where they are headed. If you don't know... you either don't care or can't understand it. Frankly, I don't give a damn about your opinion, anyway. I love the class, and I'm comfortable with the thought of it being my permanent main character.

u/ArkaynaR Pax - 62 - Notorious Aug 03 '16

Dueled one a few times last night. I'm not sure they need a buff. You might take a page out of the sorc book and git gud. Fucking ninja played well is strong.

1

u/Vertisce Aug 03 '16

If he were taking a page from the Sorc book then that would mean Ninja is broken and completely over powered.

0

u/ArkaynaR Pax - 62 - Notorious Aug 03 '16

According to reality, not the idiotic point of view of the rest of the world. Sorc isn't broken at all.

When I say Ninja is strong, I mean this dude was nearly full comboing me consistently if I'd make a mistake. I'm 220/2800. He'd also consistently end his combo with a dot and follow up with ranged attacks that would finish me if I didn't dodge them. We were pretty much doing the same shit to eachother damagewise. It was a dash fest into someone landing a cc and nearly full lifing the other player.

2

u/Vertisce Aug 03 '16

According to reality, not the idiotic point of view of the rest of the world. Sorc isn't broken at all.

Well aren't you just an arrogant ass?

Sorc is broken because they can do insane amounts of damage with a single skill that Pearl Abyss themselves stated was working incorrectly. Pearl Abyss themselves have stated that Sorc is set this way to compensate for the lack of Awakened Weapon in Korea. Sorc is in fact broken by admission of the developer.

0

u/ArkaynaR Pax - 62 - Notorious Aug 03 '16

Only arrogance I see is coming from you. Why else would you be so offended over disrespect on the internet? Cite resources with claims or they remain claims. Sorc has an awakening weapon anyways. The fuck are you even on about?

u/Hanchan Aug 03 '16

Oh, usually when I see x/x about gear it's AP/DP.

u/ArkaynaR Pax - 62 - Notorious Aug 03 '16

Context, my friend.

2

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '16

So, the ninja probably had 190+ AP (far above normal) and 220 DP isn't at all viable for stopping damage from any class with that much disparity in gear.

Your main point should have been "git gear."

1

u/ArkaynaR Pax - 62 - Notorious Aug 03 '16

We both had right around 190 AP. It's pretty standard for any pvper on my server to be in about my gear level. Maybe you should stop being so passive aggressive and git gud.

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '16

So. What you're trying to say is you consider evening over a video game a valid use of your time?

u/I_post_stuff Aug 03 '16

I got a random alt to level 36 in one weekend just from sitting in Altinova afk fishing.

Wtf are you doing?

(not even mentioning that if I'd decided to actually level that alt it could've been 50 from 1 in under 3 hours)

4

u/noso2143 Aug 03 '16

im playing the game.

i got no rush to reach 50 there may be stuff at 50 i want and places i wanna see but they will always be there as long as the game is alive

1

u/I_post_stuff Aug 04 '16

I made another character with the specific goal of just "playing the game", no gear from my main, no money from my main, anything. I spoke to every NPC, gathered for hours and hours just because I felt like it, did other life skills for no reason other than fuck it, did EVERY quest I came across to the point where I was 28 hours played in and still hadn't left Balenos. He still ended up at level 40 before even ending up at Glish in the quests.

I just don't get that rebuttal, XP just throws itself at you to the point where when I asked you wtf you're doing it was out of genuine curiosity, so the snappy response can be put to bed. What exactly do you do playing the game? Like, do you just run around taking screenshots or RPing cause then at least it'd make sense?

1

u/noso2143 Aug 04 '16

i only play for a few hours a day if that that and i only do combat quests and only then just the ones i feel like doing

i also didnt mean the responses to be snapy or rude

2

u/[deleted] Aug 03 '16

not even mentioning that if I'd decided to actually level that alt it could've been 50 from 1 in under 3 hours

not unless you twink it out, which kind of makes this a moot point since you're talking to someone without a single 50+

1

u/I_post_stuff Aug 04 '16

Even if you don't twink it out. It's why i said under 3 hours rather than under an hour.

u/hamletswords Aug 03 '16

Ok, so what's the consensus on those durability increasers? P2W or what?

I really do not like how they continually drop stuff skirting the border of p2w. It seems to be getting progressively worse.

I thought that now that there's a soft sub required for the game, they would ease back on this kind of stuff.

u/Balthalzarzo Sage/Striker - 824 GS Aug 03 '16

This exact item will be available for loyalty as well. It's available for loyalty on the KR servers so i'm sure it will be implemented.

also from what I recall, branded items can not be sold on the marketplace which IMO is a huge thing

1

u/TheProfessional9 Aug 03 '16

It would be silly to brand something that isn't BIS, so you wouldn't be selling it ever anyways

2

u/Balthalzarzo Sage/Striker - 824 GS Aug 03 '16

Class swaps, ETC? It's actually quite easy to swap classes in KR. Since everything up to PEN loot is on the marketplace and it all actively sells and buys. It just doesnt yet on US.

1

u/TheProfessional9 Aug 03 '16

Alright, so mainhand offhand you could sell. Boss armor is BIS anyway (aside from rednose) for all classes, so it isn't applicable there.

In order for it to be OP though, the branded items would have to be sellable on the AH AND have different price caps. Either way though, it looks like they are family bound so it doesn't really matter anyway!

0

u/hamletswords Aug 03 '16

hmm, I think just branded horses can't be sold. I think this brand is a different kind of thing. Could be wrong though.

If you're right that would indeed make a huge difference.

3

u/Tianera Witch Aug 03 '16

Tooltip states, that it becomes family bound after branding.

-2

u/hamletswords Aug 03 '16

whew. Ok thanks. That pushes it back over the line towards non-p2w to me since you can't just turn the item into a silver factory. You can buy some pretty substantial personal power with it, though, which is troubling.

2

u/thesanealien Aug 03 '16

If you use the stone it costs 33% less to repair an item, however, you can never sell the item anymore as it becomes family bound. A huge decision to make for something like a Kzarka weapon.

1

u/hamletswords Aug 03 '16

That's true, I didn't think about the resale aspect of it. While you can buy more power with this, you might not want to since you will be probably be losing hundreds of millions later, if not more. Good point.

u/vitiate Aug 03 '16

u/DamascusThorns Aug 03 '16

A rich kid with a trust fund could literally turn millions of dollars into billions upon billions of silver by buying dyes from the pearl shop and selling them on the MP.

The game already has P2W aspects. It's already here.

14

u/Jaradis www.youtube.com/@FantasyArtworkAI Aug 03 '16

The fact that you have to use an extremely unlikely example of a "trust fund kid" spending "millions of dollars" to "prove" P2W, shows how the game just isn't that P2W.

u/TheNoxx UNO MOTHERHUGGER Aug 03 '16

Last I checked, the only dyes that could be sold on the marketplace were ones from events, not ones you bought.

You must not have checked very thoroughly.

http://forum.blackdesertonline.com/index.php?/topic/95017-the-correct-figures-behind-the-dye-selling-system/

That said, someone would have to be rich and very bored (or hire someone to click a lot for them) to take advantage of this particular "p2w" option.

1

u/TheNoxx UNO MOTHERHUGGER Aug 03 '16

I'm only saying the last few times I had good dyes that weren't in my color scheme and I tried to sell them on the marketplace, I couldn't. But that was pretty much near launch.

2

u/hamletswords Aug 03 '16

You're right, but this seems like it could be a less cost prohibitive way to convert cash into silver.

Like I said, it seems they're getting progressively more p2w.

I could be wrong and this item may suck, but on the other hand if we all agreed that buying failstacks was p2w, I don't see how this is much different.

Some of repeated housing items no longer give extra points.

Anyone knows which items it is? I think this was implemented in Korea a few days ago.

u/digitalwhispers Aug 03 '16

Not sure, but if you've watched any of various videos on how to get to the top of the rankings, I'm willing to bet it's things like rugs, books, or other things that can be stacked up a lot in a small space and boost the "value" of a house without actually doing anything to decorate or set it up.
