I've already quit, not because the servers crap - but because my irl is alot more important and this game was causing some serious issues.

Made over 250£ in less than a week so not bad all in all. Have fun all

Think back to a week ago when people were complaining about magic shield not dropping and should be a shop item and now look at it. There's 6 or 7 people with it or even more. There's nothing wrong with drops or gold.

drops have been edited in this time, I think to include books at a better rate. I love that d rings etc are rare, but not having your skills that you are used to having for 15 years now, just feels bad. Sometimes balance has to be sacrificed for satisfaction, I think books being a common item are on of those times. (not flamefield/curse etc, that's different)

People mentioning killing IWT's and getting Vio's, BIH etc... Remember that BDD came late in the game and these items weren't exactly rare then.

This server is just over 2 weeks old, if you killed a few IWT and got a few rares dropped, the server would be flooded within a week.

So what's the point in IWTS then lol? They drop absolute cack... Who wants to go to a mid level place and get nothing but level 7-26 items and books... This is the reason people are 40 with fk all lol, I'm only 32 and given up on killing IWTS due to the utter cack they drop, hardly worth picking up, 500 gold a book from a semi hardish boss... Soon gets boring same old crap over and over and over

Nobody knew each other when euro started so guilds and bonds had to be formed. That part is leapfrogged here.

What a ridiculous thread, its a low rate server get over it

i have 500k and cant even play the game properly because of "overweight lag" people complaining about gold obviously only want to hunt mobs. its not just about levelling you know. hunting for gold is part of the game.

Things I miss from Euro though are:

being able to add stats to weapons through refining.
I would like to see the shop npc's selling what players put in, that was a lot of fun.
hiding behind a wall to kill higher exp mobs
using Firewall and Lightening (not at required level yet but i know it will frustrate me)

and thats it. otherwise im really enjoying playing even with my disabled wizz

I have not logged in for 2 days... just because of being back at work though

Love the server so I will be back soon although only playing short times and on my days off mostly, had fun leveling to 35 while I was off :D

It has been mentioned a few times in this thread but I really really hope to see npc shops selling the items players sell to them... the common none shop items need somewhere to be sold that doesn't have as much fee as the trust merchant but I wouldn't like them to be listed on the trust merchant as it should just be for semi rare / rare items... the common items need somewhere though

I'm not sure about the drop rates talked about in this thread... I've not had much drop so don't know if I'm hunting in the correct areas for anything good like drings or skills to be dropping (I don't hunt subs/bosses I'm talking about normal mob drops) I'll keep trying and once I know where things drop I'll be happier

I've considered quitting and going back to PoE but guild chat and the thought of finally reaching TDB lvl has spurred me on. Having a power axe at 31 is mind numbing though and 1.9mill for a great axe in TM today certainly isn't fun to see, when taos are picking serp's up for 450k.

tbh drops arent super bad, one of the things that making it look bad is the fact that npc's no longer sell what others sold to npc.
the first few days when it still worked, i bought myself gear that to this day is considered rare for most?

if npc's worked fine then you would see ALOT more mid level items being common
doesnt help ofcourse that there's like 500+ ppl competing over mid level boss's and gear atm

+1

People think they know what they want.

I haven't had as much fun on Mir in YEARS. Finding a decent rare, heck, just seeing Mass Healing drop made me and my group squeal a little. This part of Mir had been taken away from us. Servers where you'd leave a Dslayer on the floor, where finding a rare meant nothing because it wasn't actually rare, everyone would have it soon. Seeing a guy in a WSB or something is like oh **** atm.

Drop rates are fine and I'm guessing Sam is slowly but surely adjusting them as time goes on.

Here's what I think the problem is. Back on Euro you could hunt Gang spiders and get a frequent mass drop of armours, or go Bug Cave and get a bunch of armours. These used to sell for way way way more than they do on this server. Heavy armour was like, 6k+ to a shop if I remember correctly. If Sam simply increased the sale price of standard items to shops/junk man a tad, I think it'd be perfect. I'm willing to bet more people are leaving because of no money rather than no drops.

drops have been edited in this time, I think to include books at a better rate. I love that d rings etc are rare, but not having your skills that you are used to having for 15 years now, just feels bad.

PSC repeatable is really good if you want to farm cash, 50k a pop + exp + chance of drops in PSC.

What level do you need to be for PSC?

I've long gone due to having my own reasons. However i don't see why there has to be a thread regarding who's left/leaving. Seems to me like people are trying to scaremonger to have their needs met. Just leave and keep calm ;D

Atleast this game has brought LOMCN back to life, was getting a tad dead after Heroes we're deemed "****"

erything seems balanced to me really just needs a fw more huunting places that im sure will be added for 40+ and then this stuff about tweakers being banned seems abit odd so needs to be looked into for 3 weeks of gametime its doing fairly well imo

If im honest i think its poeple have done this grind a million times over, and before at least they got something for it. atm its just a grind without drops. Lacking basic spells too just adds to the annoyance.

For me its the fact i cant geek this like most of the dole boys on mir. So im already a fair bit behind. then the pvp sucks on here which is the most fun part of mir :(

as long as the server doesn't sell top tier items for real life cash then i will probably keep playing. Makes a nice change from other servers.

To answer the original post, some people are unhappy with the drop rates but more are happy. Level 40's hunting noob caves for gold, ST and BC are great places to make cash I would consider them caves designed for that very purpose as opposed to being for low levels vs high levels. 40 armors are rare, but they have added in a slightly worse version which you can craft with a bit of effort. Instead of waiting for a drop why not actively work towards something, like the crafting sets or making enough gold to buy the items that come up for sale, not many high level items have dropped but so what? it's all relative.

The sole reason I've pretty much stopped playing is bevause they have absolutely fooked warriors, they really are leaps and bounds behind other classes, sin n archer class have thrown so much out of balance and consequently have turned warriors from being a powerful tank class to being sitting prey for sins n archers.

I wouldn't mind but they hadnt blatantly altered the way a warrior should be played in a PvP or fight, they claim to have fixed a bug. Well let's face it if its really a bug why didn't shanda or gnonline change it..? Or gamepot USA as all of these had the capability to do so but I'm guessing realised the effect it would have .... I'll no doubt eagerly await the flames of "play another class" but tbh I'd rather play a class I enjoy on a less populated server then be forced to play a terrifically under powered class just because this server has a high user count and tbh if other people are already making posts about leaving in the first month then I'm obviously not the only 1 with this view.

Now that the novelty is wearing off expect a server full of taos/sins & archer as they undoubtably over shadow war n wiz by a country mile

*excuse grammer and spelling (bloody phone lol)*
