So, i wanted to post my opinion on this event that happened in August.
Usually i don't do events since most aren't that reward or i'm sply tired of doing em, i don't even do daliyes everyday since it's boring to me, so i usually pass events or don't put much effort, so i didn't think much, but i went see it, after going and doing some quests i was blown away by how original the expedition was, the mobs were diferent, even thought the sounds were similar with Arcana i still liked, dinamic maps and diferent quests that made you go to diferent places, the amont of people theer made the experience better, the feeling of MMO with people and you could party with em too!
The event gave a lot of exp for low lvs and gave mesos so anyone starting would benefit, it could be a decent exp even up to lv200!
Maybe not that good for high lvs, but that's what the catalog helped, people that didn't gain a good exp, nor wanted the soul you could get, not many events give unique potential 100% so pretty good.
They even made a option to turn-off the effects when getting the drops, nice addition there, even thought not the most needed honestly.
Only real downside was the bitesnack honestly, that monsters that could eat you, they easily dced you, if it wasn't gliched it still a annyoing and unhealth, in the way he can eat you from super afar, it's not something you can dodge easily(you had to keep moving for him to miss you).
The part outside the expedition was ok, the buff is decent, and it's not bad to get drops, but why so many? And why step-up tab? People already have so many chairs, etc seens better, aside the fact that it was REALLY laggy to get drops, unlike usual drops it needed to register every single one you got, instead to maybe check in your inventory when you talked to the NPC.
People like me who suffer with pet lag, couldn't get the drops without a major lag, i usually train without getting the mesos in the floors, so when this event came i couldn't barely drop any Nodestone or Arcane Symbol even with drop gear, it was just that many drops, just a horrible trainning experience, why not let a toggle-on/off the drop stuff?
Overall the event was hella good for anyone who wanted to level mules, some went all in to get the drops, but i would problably get banned of how laaggy i was getting so many at once....need some changes.
