Yea, they finally got rid of them.
I’m actually not a fan of this, ’cause I actually use Normal difficulty sometimes. For example, when doing the Atlas Entry quests. I can do that in any difficulty, and tbh, I think having to go through the first three Lanox dungeons again is a bit redundent in the first place.
they could actually make you walk throgh the fields related to the dungeons or talk to the NPCs related to them to be honest
Same, if I don’t know whether I can solo VH at whatever level I’m at I use Normal to gauge dungeon difficulty with whatever class I’m playing
Revamps, revamps, revamps, revamps, revamps.
Dammit KOG. People want CONTENT. Not more damn revamps of the same old stale content.
Like REAL endgame content. The game turns 10 years old this year. Don’t you think it’s time you add something more substantial than lolsecret stages?
they basicly could add more raids, like Eltrion or Perkisas, or character related raids like we already have Add’s one, or cooperative raids like with cooperative mechanics even, in term of current endgame there are Henir and Heroics at the moment really(Add’s Fusion theorty too i guess)
On the subject of Add’s Fusion Theory, that shit is coming to NA now.
I hope KoG gets a one-way ticket to hell this christmas.
Seriously? Holy fucking shit.
KOG must be desperate. Surely they know the damage that caused to KR if they’re actually bringing it over.
But what would be even more hilarious is if they nerfed the Void weapon, pissing off the people who were looking forward to it and pissing off everyone else in the process by reminding them that NA Elsword is the only NA version kMMO that goes out of its way to treat non-Koreans like second class citizens.
Nah we got tooltip revamps before add fusion. It’s actually quite difficult to clear adds fusion. And I’m an AP with +9 rank 29 heroic gear and wep. And I still can barely clear it.
This is going to make ppl more lazy than ever…. it was fun to exchange items and stuff with other people.
“Old Alchemist crafting materials removed”
…what does that even mean?
– Difficulties in Ruben~Atlas dungeons removed
– They are all fixed at Very Hard. Related Quests fixed accordingly
Ok but WHY though
Reason is: most of the game (or at least how i see it) plays only on very hard
The Alchemy Essence thing you could only get from buying at the NPC is now gone basically.
No… Crafting items you get from BLACKSMITHS are gone
14. Warning is displayed when player tries to enter dungeon with Sparring Gear
WHO THE FUCK DOES THIS? LOLOLOLOLOL
BR server about 60% of the newbies
When Eltrion and Drabaki were a thing I would occasionally enter Raids with my sparring gear because PvP was the last thing I did before I got off and I was very forgetful.
Yeah, fun times.
You would be surprised by how many people actually do that
…
Uh
I do it all the time. It’s not all that hard when you don’t play the game all that often :v
I do it
A lot
Unfortunately. It just kinda…Slips my mind, ya know.
So I just had a thought about Lu.
She ages based off of the amount of power she currently has, apparently. She was a woman. Then Karis sealed her away and she expended a bunch of power breaking out, turning her into a child. She can temporarily tap into more power and become a woman again as Diabla.
…..So, if she went mad with power/vengeance and started draining power from all the other demons left and right, would she turn into an old lady?
Lol yes please. I actually want to see that a bit.
You do know that old people can still look like young men/women if they take proper care of their bodies, right?
But over a 1000 years old? Really, how does Rena do it? Is it from having a strict vegan diet? Maybe she does Paleo once in awhile.
She’s an Elf! Her body doesn’t age as fast! IT’S SIMPLE LOGIC!
And reminder for you, Lu is a Demon. She doesn’t age the same as human.
Not my point. My point was that old people aren’t always wrinkley and whatnot, and can still appear young.
You think about Lu a lot, don’t you Endy? ;3

After finding this on Pixiv two weeks ago….. yes, I confess. I HAVE been thinking about Lu a lot.
Why the fuck didn’t you just give us Legal Lu KOG?! Why only 30 seconds?!

Is it just me or Els finally dropped out of top 50?
Yep.
But somehow your post didn’t show up until after I made my post about it. Babel can be wonky sometimes. (Like how it takes days for posts that contain links to show up sometimes.)
Refreshing the page usually fixes that problem though, at least for me.
KR Elsword rankings watch:
http://www.gamemeca.com/popup/ranking.php?scode=O&rid=1162
It’s finally happened. Elsword has fallen off.
We all knew it was going to happen eventually….. and it’s probably likely that it’s going to be back next week because PVP revamps always manage to temporarily get people back.
But still. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that this is also the same week that Add’s Fusion Theory is being released in non-KR versions. I think KOG has entered full blown desperation mode.
That exp thing was completely needed, no more grinding to level up, just grinding to get good gear
I feel bad saying this but I honestly don’t give a damn about early-mid game content anymore. I have like 4 accounts and I’m sitting on top of so many level jump characters it’s kind of sad. The only time I bothered with dungeons was when I had to level up a Rose and that was with the event and took me less than a week to get 70.
Legit the only thing I do nowadays in Elsword is logging on on main account and do pvp matches with spar gear and pray that I can get SS before season ends.
The only thing about dungeons that does get me is the transcendence quest. It takes way too long and I always die like 10 times in SDs. Can we pls just have a free trans event o3o
You should play Dragon Nest to see what happens when people lose their care for anything without “Endgame” tacked onto it.
You should see what happens in BDO. You get a large population of afkers and no one doing anything in game for days until someone tries to start shit up in RP chat.
I did play Dragon Nest for a while. But then they keep raising level cap and I got kinda bored with it. (kind of just like Elsword lmao\)
No April Fools joke this year?
April Fools Maid Event
I mean a Babel April Fools joke.
So idk if it’s just NA but they immediately tried to patch the Fusion theory wound by saying hey guys look here’s magic wardrobe. As I post this yes it’s April fools today but NA on a livestream said it was coming yesterday. If it turns out to not be true players would riot so nice to see the desperation on KOG’s part. Patched up that wound super quick. Fusion theory has been out in NA like what? 4 days?
It’s all non-KR versions. They all get the same things at the same time. (Except EU apparently. Either Gameforge doesn’t care anymore or KOG is sending them updates slower to try to hinder Void.)
KOG is in full desperation mode. I don’t think it’s a coincidence Add’s Fusion Theory came out the same week the one version that needs to stay up fell off the rankings charts. And apparently NA Kritika is going to be a thing and that could hurt Elsword a bit. And then there’s the inevitable NA Closers…..
Void started using NA client tho.
KR Elsword rankings watch: It’s back on the list!
…..At #47. Meaning it’s going bye bye again next week.
