Would really be sad that they made all these stigma's bought for cheap on NPC, but we still gotta dish out 5-7m on 4 fucking spirits.

Wow, its that bad on your server? Most I've ever paid is like 400k.

you can ignore it. im just giving an example of the prices and how theyre all jumping. spirits are even worse.

last i saw, water spirit 3/4 were pushing 7, almost 8 digit prices.

Jesus, what server? Time to farm that shit for easy cash lol.

marchutan. im tempted to go farm up water spirit 2 books on my lowbie sin. those sell for 1-3mil depending if theres any on the broker or not.

retards will do anything to not have to farm for their stuff.

In their defense, those books have such a stupid low drop rate its almost worth buying if you're unlucky.

that may be true for books 3 and 4, but for 1 and 2?

i can spend maybe an hour or so in the water temple on my alt and farm up two book 2s and put them on the broker for well over a mil and people will buy it. every time i ran in there for Three Keys, i always saw one drop. ive even sold about 15 of them over the previous months for some spare change. hell, 20 minutes in impetesium can get you book 1 and lowbies will spend all their money on it instead of better gear.

Water 2 took me over a week of farming 3-4 hours at a time before i gave up and bought it.

You forgot to mention that I spent over 20 hours farming wind4 for u

and water 1 - 3 is just plain retarded on Elyos side. Max of 6 mobs for each book.. Water 1 is just a decent drop rate, but 2 is horrible and 3 is worse.

Lol was it only 20 hours? You spent a lot more time on that damn mesa I know.

2 and 3 are horrible drop rates, but they have the added shitfest that is the level 35-40 Sin twinks that just will toss your cookies anytime they feel like it. Alas... I would go farm water 2, but I can't get drops anymore.

I'll believe that when I see it. NCSoft and the Aion team have routinely taken their own sweet time with the MAJOR patch translations. Unless they have actually been paying people to translate as they go, I would guess 4 weeks. I will be pleasantly if its otherwise, but still, its a large patch with a lot of changes.

judging by the way nc soft does things, we wont see the 1.9 patch until late june. if they prove me wrong, ill throw away my full daeva set + weapons.

I don't see why you think this. 1.5 and the patches that soon followed were implemented in ~29 days from their release on Korean servers, and to my knowledge has been pretty much the standard pace of "localizing" patches.

Has something changed?
