Announcing the November Version Update! (10/24/2014)

[Damane]

It was an arbitrary figure. We dont know the drop rate, we dont know the respawn time, we dont even know what the items are.

that doesnt matter at all. when I log on i want to play the game, and not hope my playtime fits the camping window for some ass-retard NM that might or might not pop... If they bring camping NMs back they might as well flush the game entirely down the toilet.

[Anoat]

You guys are missing the most important part about that trailer. BABY COCKATRICE AAAAAAHHHHH SO CUTE!

Yeah same for me, with only 1-2h playtime at most on the day I can log, I'd much rather ??? NM even if lower drop rate than having it not pop at all during my playtime

[Draylo]

It's a little too early to tell tbh, hopefully they have lower respawn timers and they are fun to fight.

Watch them troll us with a free roaming AV like NM with a 1min respawn xD.

PW that aggros everyone in zone once aggroed... people be fighting it wipe and all of a sudden all these avatars going around astral flowing everyone in zone!

[FaeQueenCory]

I wouldn't be surprised if it worked like VNMs.
Set the RoE or whatever, go /heal everywhere, pop the iLv NM.
Cause that's the only way I can think of making lv130 Valkurm Emperor that doesn't just rape the random lv20 player who thinks it's the regular one.

[Ophannus]

As a part of this new feature, we will be implementing a new battle system known as “Wanted” where you can fight against high-tier versions of existing NMs, and we will also be adding Unity-related objectives to Records of Eminence. Moving forward we’ll continue to add various new elements, and we are looking forward to receiving your feedback.

You guys ready for Empress Hairpin +1, Bounding Boots +1 and Peacock Amulet +1?

Maybe even Ridill +1 and Defending Ring +1 oh shi--

ilvl all old things!

I wouldn't mind a 11% dt ring to go with my D. And an oa2-3 with skill on it... but make blu wear it! And a joy toy

[Sechs]

Am I like the only BG user who still doesn't have a normal Defending Ring lol?

[Draylo]

Probably >.>, its considerably easier to obtain now. I went like 1/100+ on my main, when the pops were 10m each a long time ago. Then my mules went 1/3~4 each after the pops were 2m each lol.

[Sechs]

I'm 0/38 on Savory Shank atm lol
Bought 6-7 Savory when they were cheap (3000 login campaign) but alas no luck.

Meh, if it drops one day it's all good but until then I don't really see necessity to sink 40+ mils gil in a 10% DT ring, but that's just me I guess.

[dasva]

First log in campaign or 2 I spent pretty much all my points of all my mules on nq pops and just waited in line forever. A lot of wait time but got it thru perseverance. Doubt the lines are that bad anymore

I'm still working on it as well, but I just came back to the game recently lol.

Nah, that's not the issue but I only have one mule ^^'
And it's a pain to have to stress friends every time because SE for some reason won't allow to send Shanks between same account chars =/ I don't get the point of such a decision since you can move the items anyway...


@Scyth
At least you have the "I was on break" excuse, I never was! xD

Didn't you get the memo? SE clearly wants people to use more mules in order to get the D

I always assumed it was due to delivery boxes ignoring rare tags. With enough sending and returning, you could stock your dbox up to the max (256? idk) with shanks. You'd still have to return to town each time, but between all the means of porting around, you'd only have a few minutes of down time in between pops.

As for why they're rare to begin with anymore... aliens.

[NynJa]

Dbox has nothing to do w rare tag. You could dbox aby pop items for example.

SE just decided no dboxing kings pops. Which is why i dont have any drings either. 1 hr waits durring login campaigncuz if idiots who go TK/AA/RP and SA/TA only. That and nothing rver drops for me

Yeah. I even remember a post from a rep on official forums concerning king pops and they said it was on purpose.
There are many other drops that you can't send through DB but you can trade (dynamis currency? or pops? or something like that).

To me it makes no sense.
If you can trade an item, you should be able to send it through DB, period.
If the item is Rare/Ex or Ex (i.e. not tradeable) then you should be able to send it TO SAME ACCOUNT as long as it's not in the "undeliverable" list.
List of undeliverable for EX items does make sense, but for items that you can trade anyway it totally doesn't
