Refining sale

Would be nice to have a sale on perfect refining jewels for +6 and +12... +16 aswel but thats probably asking for too much.

My gear is pretty much stack at +3 and +4 and paying 150 rubies per perfect jewel from ruby shop isnt going to happen.

*cough*reduce the cost drastically*cough*cough* .. excuse me, i really need to get that looked at. >.>

It would be even nicer if they were just placed back into the item shop like they were before and also at the same time revert the idiotic price "adjustments" on almost every ruby item.

I don't care who's "reward" it goes too, weather it be the guy buying the rubies for gold or someone buying diamonds and spending them in bulk to get rubies for themselves. It is atrocious, if the 20 or so EU/anyplaceoutsideNAcontinent had the cash shop we used to have, Runewalker and whatever publisher they pick would be so well rewarded they might not know what to do with all the money.


EDIT post: Oh I know one thing they might not do, is advertise this game to promote a flow of new players.

Today sale is ... not on jewels. But if you ever wanted your pet to look like evil clown or Annelia bear, if you said to yourself "darn, 30 day of sheep is not enough for me! What I am gonna do for ... ummm... companionship after that?" then today sale is for you.

I wonder if it'll be more effecient to get them to do the jewels sale if i made a bunch of accounts and have each of them make a new thread in EVERY sub-forums asking for a jewels sales... maybe if they had to do massive work they will get tried and finally do it so they could *in theory* finally get some peace. :cool:

Sales department is killing game by removing ABLs and high level refining Jewels from everyday sale. How they expect to make sale/living if major thing in CS is not available at all times.

Dio (and CO), please explain them that their ideas are stupid, not working, killing game.

Place both ALL THE TIME in CS, and then just lower price, put packages when on sale.

That is not rocket science.

If we had several 10 page thread on it, it would work. But 10 page threads are usually only reserved to threads where people QQ and wail at each other (aka. nerf threads) :(

Your main account might get a vacation and the threads started by your alt accounts would either get merged together or disappeared. <flips coin> Damn, it stood on edge again! :mad:

Hey kalvan do you want to refrain from these types of posts, we know you know who everyone is but you don't have to point it out. Just because someone makes a thread about problems in the game on an alternative account, meaning he might not of gotten the proper or respectable response he gotten, doesn't mean you have to call him out INSTEAD of addressing his problems.

This is the fundamental issue we have on these forums, threatening or even going through with forums bans because we are strained out of our mind with the utter incompetence of the sales team, marketing team and probably the rest yet we still want to log in to play the game. See things our way, convince your colleges to do the same, it's just that simple. You are not above us "irl", try being on our level for a change and you will see our plight.

Thanks.

I agree with RoM mage.....the sales tactics are really starting to kill the game. The tactics hold people back from being able to build gear which is what the entire system is built around.

It just seems like most things done in this game anymore are very counterproductive to the base of the system.
They want us to pay them to advance in thier game yet they limit our ability to do so by not allowing the stuff we pay for to be readily available.

The more you look at the system the more I start to really ponder how idiotic I am for spending on it.

If they put all the gems on sale at this point it will look like a cash grab from people trying to max out their gear only for them to add more gear in 3-5 days. And we would call them out on that too.
A real sysadmin knows how to change the time.
If you make the same mistake while trying to make up for the previous one, you are doing something wrong.

As much as I'd love to say I offer consulting services, the scope of things broken is too large.

But that is what they do anyways Sertet. Put them on sale before the stuff comes out or right after...either way they are always doing the cash grab tactic. Is what makes the sales so lousy and to the point of being frustrating. You get your new gears you want to build it to use not have to leave it in a storage space for 6 months waiting on the right items to be available to make it useable, you know you get some great pieces but by the time you can make them viable for use they are already outdated with the current sales and item shop. The only way to avoid it is to splurge like mad when they are available so you can have them when you need them....just getting so tired of this sale tactic.

Don't say this. You can offend stupid people because even they know how to do sales. The way they're running this game is too much worst than this. They fix 1 thing and break 3 more, the put a good stuff on IS and take 5 out, not to mention the prices that are tremendously ridiculous.

Someone told me they removed option to add 4 other account to main one. So new players have to register all 5 accounts the same, can end up with 5 forum accounts as well.

Not sure if this is true, and it does not make much sense to me, but that is just a small drop in bucket of none-sense decisions.

A spinet from the EU News

"With this decree, mighty Advanced Refining Gems of Faith (Plus 12 up to Level 80) are available as of today in the Item Shop at permanently reduced prices!
These new offers can now be permanently found in the Item Shop under Hot Sales as of Saturday,the 22nd of September 2012, at 13:00 CEST (midday UK)."

Now to get them to reduce the cost of the perfect +6 jewels.

Takes 2 perfects to get +6 Item(ive tried to get 5 on normal ones no love for me)

9 Armor pieces x 150 rubies x 2 = 2700 rubies
5 Accessories x 150 rubies x 2 = 1500 rubies
2 Weapons x 200 rubies x 2 = 800 rubies

For a total of 5000 rubies. That is just getting all your gear +6

Correct me if my math is wrong. As most of those who know me and most of my guild, we have no problem paying for anything, however asking ridiculous prices for a lower grade item like a perfect +6 jewel is crazy. What are the +12 and +16 perfect jewels going to cost? I like the house im living in I do not want to sell it to get my future level 75 gear to +12.

Putting the Advanced jewels permanently in the Cash Shop is a move in the right direction. Thanks for that!

If sales intern played game, he would know of +1 from in game NPC, +4 from normal, +6 from perfect, +10 from normal and +12 from perfect jewels rule. It's just matter of time until someone explains him. :)

That is the disconnect, and the very reason we all know that no one who runs or works for the game actually plays it. Why are people going to put money in a game that its own employees won't play. Whoever thought the ruby plan for chapter 5 was a good one should realize they played a huge role in the games decline. We all said from day one this is bad, meanwhile you alll tried to give it time causing people to quit. Guess what you scared away the $10-20 a month players and you didn't realize how much they meant to you. Now do some damage control and fix rubies.
