jimbobborg22: 1580-1620 still costs too much.

Kalimdor199Menegroth: I do not understand what Smilegate is thinking. In the past, when they nerfed gold from raids, it was usually accompanied by a significant nerf to honing costs at that specific item level. When you nerf the gold income up to 1660, it is only reasonable to except a honing cost nerf up to 1660 as well.

With the current changes, they nerfed the mat and gold cost for Advanced Honing, but not from 1600-1620 item level, nor from 1640-1660. Which makes no sense. Sure, part of the honing cost can be alleviated by adding honing books. But still, it is unreasonable expensive. And the fact that they nerfed the income, but not the expenditure is dumb.

FalseHope87: been a while since ive dropped here, your english is better than ever! keep it up! :)

petetam7394: Vote with your wallet and stop supporting the greedy dev

azraelfaust487: i don't understand where the logic is, when you nerf gold income ( to encourage people to hone to newer content ) but you don't nerf the honing cost itself, what kind of monkeys are in charge of the direction of this game ? it has 0 logic

potatoe1975: Why are the devs so obsessed with not allowing the people to play the content they are releasing?

kkokogee8034: ngl im slowly making the same class coz its just expensive

csanadtemesvari9251: It's a video game. Nothing matters

dominicblake5: Dead game

SilentNight0929: Smile Gate: Here is a great content that we've worked so hard called T4

Player: Can you guys Nerf honing cost?

SG: Here you go, gold nerf on all ur raids.

Player: shi-bal

joenuttah7886: Everything in game is tied to dollar signs. Time is money friend

AlphaWorld: I think something that will be really helpful is to allow big players to do multiple times the raids and get different rewards , in order to help new players to pass it the first time or to be able to learn the mech , because on some levels 1620-1660 …. Is almost impossible to get in a party as a Mokoko … and you cannot do it solo either

Like Behemoth which is easy but a lot of ppl cannot get a party , same in Act 1 which is even harder ….

Since are only by party but highly restrictive in reality , something must be done to motivate experienced players to do it again to help other and to be rewarded with a different set of rewards when you do it the second time

kenwong2349: Thank you for the information. Keep up the hard work

Frzr27: i play in NAE, around 12k hours (yeah at least 20% afk in SH lol) and at this point at least for me, whats killing the fun its the gems system; if they're thinking on making the conversion free, may as well make them work like the engraving system and make them roster wide. At the moment of writting this a lvl, 8 gem costs between 300k to 350k gold, a level 9 around 1m and a level 10 around 3m. The gems end up beign a big gatekeep factor, even if some people say that with full 7s for 1680 you're fine, can we think about a new player point of view? they get "good event gems" yeah sure, but they cant upgrade those so they need to buy new ones, around 100k for a level 7 gem; can 1 character make 100k weekly? sure with a bit of work, but we have: honing, elixirs (reworked sure, but still costs gold to craft them together with the catalyst), transcendence (sure again, nerfed, still costs a good amount of gold if you're really unlucky), craft abidos fusion material (a material that cant be craft with bound gold), karma system and engravings (wich, yes, are really cheap now and we get a lot free from events), so of course needs an alt to help push his main but surprise, again no gems and all the systems mentioned before, have to be done again. so a new player sure, gets 1 character "ready" for 1640-1660 content, but we all know that we need more than 1 character. IF gems were roster wide (including event gems wich of course need to be bound to roster) it would a big help for new players and of course old players who dont play 6 of the same clase (or 12 maybe lol) because its more "efficient". As someone said in another comment, its like SG doesnt want new people in the game; i mean, do they really think that every new player will go and swip around 1k usd (new gen gpu at 600 usd or 900 usd) to get around 1m gold to get full lvl 7 gems and something else? sadly not every but sure more than 1 would and thats why the game is in the state it is. TLDR: Roster wide gems system like the engraving system, you choose to use a gem as cdr or dmg. Elixirs should already cost only silver (catalyst craft included).

javarisjamarjavarisonlamar4637: They just gotta make each 1-10 AH gear piece cost 5 scales and 5 eyes from 11-20 per ilvl, no artisan/pity. Just 50 scales & 50 eyes in total. They can nerf/adjust these quantities whenever. Let us actually use the raid currency to advance hone and leave the materials & gold to raw honing.

clementguitard6653: they shouldnt have nerfed gold of aegir since you got to do it even at 1700 ilvl. And also it doesnt make sense AH 1-10 is for 1670 chars when the raid is 1630 ilvl. at this point we just want kazeros race and season 4, because they clearly rush the progression systems this season, and have hard time to manage the economy (honing, gems, books). i liked all the qol/reworked its the right direction, the game is still good, but they should choose no reset or hard reset next time, cause this soft reset with old systems (old honing, elixir/trans, bracelet, etc) is making the whole progression broken/unbalanced, difficult to understand for the community (apart for whaling process).

EddieLT_tvt: Istead of nerfing low raids, boost the gold for high raids, like double it. Even if with bound gold. Although it wouldnt work for KR

kheath580: they need to stop making raids have a 20 ilvl gap between nm and hm. it just makes it so if youre not at least 10 ilvl above the minimum for nm you will never get invited. if it was only a 10 ilvl gap between the two difficulties then there could not be such harse ilvl gatekeeping for nm.

Rykku2isi: The best investment is having fun with your characters and stop worrying about efficiency

dontdrinkmilk: Our version is easier so the gem requirement is lower 1660 is fine with No lv7 t4 gems. 1680 full lv7 and u are fine

TheSoundOfReee: ah yes.. they will balance it by keeping costs and nerfing income <3

XenanKayriRedFrost: t4 was a mistake

mertyaman3318: sg when u gonna stop nerfing gold rewards raids and let us play game ? u made people mad for honing or not honing cuz its worth or not worth xd its not business its game

alexjesus7382: i mean you had fun with your rats for a while now il got 1680 roster with 2 1700 and 1 1690. this isnt a flex but i want to say that my main would be insane if i would have kept my rats. But i spend more time playing my alts than my main so im done with having rats for a while. push ur roster instead of just one main.
