Still a Glaring Issue with the Frenzy Totems:

September 2024

Totem reintroduction was meant to address the legacy issue of totems and how players who have one have. This update grants players access to the effects of FZ without resorting to buying … (more)one which is impossible and makes service less appealing due to the totem abundance. Having universal access to spawn enhancers is more important than having more mesos in the game for starforcing, depleting event shops. Some goods might not increase due to powercreep making them worth less and some higher end items might more affordable due to us benefiting from rapid growth.

For Interactive to be less reliant on a ton of mesos for upgrades, maybe allow them to consume Spell Traces (or something) to discount the mesos cost of things like Star Force Enhancement and the like. This would come with something like while Frenzy Totem is active (in Interactive Worlds only) will reduce mesos obtain final multiplier, for example, by 70% - which means you would obtain only 30% of your default mesos in exchange for a lot more monsters which equates to more EXP and items.

People buy service/use FZ so they can get more EXP, items and quests that involve killing faster aside from just meso. Why does Interactive have to suffer a lower meso penalty when they are on Frenzy? We both have the same meso prices for starforce, symbol enhancement and event shops. Heroic Severs have cheaper cubing costs so this makes zero sense. Even with our boosted spawn, we don't come close to Heroic income due to lower cube costs and the meso multiplier still being higher. Just accept the fact players who are stronger and/or invested in meso/drop gear will have far greater income than someone who started. If players with totems knew if they were were robbed 70% of their mesos for being on spawn boosters, this would boost Frenzy Service so that the totem renters boost others so that the other player gets FULL meso and spawn boosts. This would just promote service trading until they outrange each other or someone gets scammed.

Also, why can't you focus on one thing or two such as your Blaze Wizard/Support revamp or your vision of a better Heroic Server instead of claiming you know the solution to all the servers? (less)

I figure GMS can just port over the Potential and Bonus Potential Reset system in KMS so we can cube our items directly without worrying about losing good lines. This would make it easier … (more)

Heroic Worlds is Going to Need More Damage

The familiar thing is to improve the system and make it more interesting with extra line options, which is also shared across all worlds so it doesn't change anything for heroic. As

long as you add in Glowing Cards and Bright Cards into the game then you make familiars function the same as cubing, improving the system while also simplifying the dumbest system from their current form.

The whole point of Reboot/Heroic was to eliminate trade and access to cash shop items and focus on self progress. It has nothing to do with eliminating scrolls and bpots to simplify the experience. Because cubes are obtained with meso and not NX and meso there is more abundant, it makes the server more appealing than buying cubes in regular servers.

Using familiars to increase someone's range is a poor decision. People only really use it to increase boss damage, bypass healing restrictions or increase drop rates of bosses and farming. No one wants to walk around with since they are a visual distraction (unless you want a parade following you) and the stats provided are temporary as you need to constantly refill them. And in some cases, familiars break classes such as Dual Blade's Mirror Target effect by making the boss target YOU and your familiars instead of the dummy meant to draw aggro. Not to mention, familiars offer only 6 lines of potentials which are actually weaker than main potential and bonus potential where as bonus potential pretty much doubles the amount of lines you can have. Even if familiars made up the loss damage, it would ruin a lot of farming setups since now you don't have access to Drop% for farming.

I doubt the team for GMS wants to overhaul the familiar system just to avoid implementing a system from regular servers into Reboot. Why would the developers pour more time reinventing the familiar system when the KMS bonus potential system already matches your idea of introducing glowing and bright cards for familiars?

If we deviated from bpots and went with familiars being an overseas feature, when KMS does any changes that relates to potentials, familiars would most likely not be included and would be updated late or just be forgotten. If Reboot were to receive Bonus Potentials, and changes made to potentials in KMS would be updated in a timely manner and would cost less man hours as they don't need to rewrite familiar code and just copy bonus potential changes.

The FD buff from Reboot would never be good as bonus potentials since it doesn't provide other stats such as stat, or CDR for classes that greatly benefit from CDR. Sacrificing the FD … (more)
