How far into the SS ring are you guys in?
Comments
Burned 320 Coins, still didn't get my 2nd S Gem yet.
I didn't get a single Dark totem for my class, but at least that takes 30 minutes. Not 3 hours of grinding lmao. I unintentionally leveled up from 218 to 220.
I heard it takes an average of 1500 coins to make the ring.
The Dark Lords of Darkness only takes a few hundred kills and 30 minutes (that can be afk). It also has "consolation prizes": gold totems and the daily stat-boosting equips. So, even though I still think it should have a "diligence backstop", it's not nearly as bad as this SS Ring event.
If the SS Ring were available for outright purchase in the shop for 1500 coins, I'd have no problem grinding 3-4 hours a day for it. But no, it's RNG. You can grind all that time and end up with nothing.
Literally nothing, because this event also has no consolation prizes: to even try for the ring you have to give up everything else in the coin shop, and an S ring is utterly useless. So it's SS or bust. At the mercy of RNG.
That's why I decided, right when the drop rate of the rice flour became apparent, to pass on this event.
My second S Gem has been taking forever. 470 coins and still failing.
(72+25 bonus) + (30-45 Average Mice + 30 Pirate) = 157-172 or (130 depending on glitches Pirate/Mice Queue) coins Dailies starting November 11th till now. (Missed the first two days due to work)
That's accumulate 9 Days x 157 - 172 = 1,413 -1,548 (1170 Gltich Queues) Rice Coins in total. Once again, I didn't even miss out a single day while doing this and it took me 5-10 hours total (Assumed that the Pirate/Mice glitch sometimes) to finished em all (20% Drop Rate IA + Spider) on non-reboot server. God bless....
It's not impossible guys, but I do not recommended farming like this dailies because you might end up with Ulnar Nerve Entrapment SYNDROME or AKA numbness right hand pinky syndrome. (This will TIGHT your muscle against you nerve). It's not very painful but it extremely annoying to tape with 3-4 fingers on my right hand at the moment.
Edited: If you end up with this problem, just stretch your arm and take a rest from maple for 2 weeks - 2 months and you'll be fine. Hope that help.
Again, good luck on your hunting.
And yes I'm still at 1/4 S Gems.
I finished first around 4 days ago, and she finished today. The time frame seems right. We each got an S gem every 2-4 days.
Good luck, everyone. It is still doable!
I'm trying to help my alliance get theirs faster as well by offering Kishin for Evo Lab farming for those who don't have another computer or don't want to waste time doing Kishin trades.
I'm not going to make it, am I?
4/4 S Gems!
Now I just need some Jewel Craft Ring.... 40 more coins.
