I don’t remember reading anywhere we’re this was a confirmed addition?
Do you have any details on the system? Is it a GG item or is it a crafting thing or do additional “pages” drop or something?

It was said by Jamie in-game, but people had a riot at the ideea so after he said he will think about it and talk with Shane to see if it should be implemented or not, so it's not 100% sure it will be in-game or not, it's just an ideea
if tempest was as rare as some as the higher books it would have changed. You should not be x levels above books its just not right, people will just leave and its not good for balance, the page system is crap books should drop more often.

I like the page system it’s the drop rate that seems a little low. But as Jamie has confirmed it’s not being changed at the moment
its a disaster that a LV-appropriate tao without demonic creature,especially with the low drop rate and success rate of books.
if u cant launch that system soon,please increase the book drop rate or at least the success rate by learning skills.After all, idont wanna fail my 4th book.

I think the issue ATM is the drop rates are not actually that bad but the places they are dropping are areas we only kill slowly. If they were dropping in a dungeon / place that was getting AOE farmed they would have dropped a lot more often.
Hopefully Jamie will review it today in his dev meeting

The vocal minority appeasing shouldn't be your only priority. Most of them have no idea what is necessary for the health of the server, and that should be your only priority. If one vocal whiner quits over the change, well frankly good riddens, if it makes the other 95% more likely to enjoy themselves and continue playing. Frankly the only reason against this is the "I didn't have it, so neither should they" argument, which is frankly just greed and selfishness.
Personally, I think it would be a good change. It's a huge cash sink, which is always a good thing. The less the high levels have compared to the new players farming low level caves the better as it means they sell kit cheaper. The better the gear on low levels, the more likely they are to continue playing through the pking/abuse the high levels do. Since you have no real catchup mechanics, they are never going to be able to compete with the 50+s, so anything you can do to keep them ingame is likely good for server health. There's good reason every new mmo has had catchup mechanics inbuilt, if not complete gear resets like WoW expansions. Obviously all the high levels will bitch at any system to remove any of their strength vs the new players, but quite simply they aren't interested in having a healthy server. They'd rather be kings of a dead server than being challenged anyway.
