If you give reboot scrolling and bonus potential, you may as well give them player-to-player trading and an auction house to boot. And for the sake of game balance, the reboot-exclusive passive skill should be removed too. No need for literally free damage and higher meso drops when you have scrolls, bpot and trading.

At this point, reboot becomes functionally identical to every other server, there ceases to be a reason for it to exist.

That's a fair point but there's more than one way to balance a game. You don't have to make everything the same. I love not having to worry about scrolls, but I do still have to acknowledge that Reboot's damage ceiling is significantly lower than on non-Reboot and the beginner skill isn't nearly strong enough to cover that huge difference. That might have been intentional to make non-Reboot more appealing to paying customers. That's fine but no one who plays this game has to agree that it's good design. The draw of Reboot is that it rewards time investment over monetary investment. You can still balance the game around that to lower that damage discrepancy. Something like adding Reboot-exclusive dailies or even full questlines that increase your stats is one example. I'm not expecting anything like that to happen because it's more profitable to work on non-Reboot content but I can still complain about it.

Oh you expected me to agree with the people who don't read into reboot beyond "buy cubes and other enhancement items with mesos" and start whining that the limitations the server imposes on players are unfair?

If you want what reboot lacks, you're more than welcome to play on a server other than reboot. You can have one or the other.

No, I just didn't expect you to defend the game's poor design. You're usually the first person to argue against it. It's like you're saying "What? You don't like getting slapped in the face? Go to the other server and get punched in the gut, instead." Neither option is ideal but you've just accepted it as the way it's supposed to be. What makes this situation different that makes you, not just settle with the mediocre options we've been given without contention, but to mock the people that criticize the discrepancies as if they were arguing against good design?

Well of course reboot players "are losing damage". There are no scrolls or bonus potential by design. If you want scrolls and bonus potential, as well as trading because your ilk always likes to cry about not being able to trade with others(read as: twink out a mule via your main), then go play on a non-reboot server.

You can have one or the other. You can have progression-affecting cash items be available for mesos, or you can have scrolls and bonus potential. You can't have both.

This comment is the last thing I would have expected from you. Just because a design choice was intentional doesn't mean it was good. Heck, free-to-play MMOs thrive on poor design choices, it's how they make their money. Of course, Nexon isn't going to add trading or additional enhancement options to Reboot but patronizing him and saying he's "crying" when he's criticizing poor, albeit intentional design choices is hypocritical coming from one of the biggest critics on this forum.

Bug type: Quest Reward
Brief bug summary: Completing "Empress's Might" on Jett does not reward the player with the skill and does not allow them to continue the questline.

More details:
The quest itself can be completed but the reward is not given. The Empress's Might Skill does not appear in my Beginner Skills tab and the questline cannot be continued, since the skill is required as a prerequisite.

Steps to reproduce: Complete the quest "Empress's Might" on a Jett.


Putting my character details is most likely irrelevant to the bug but I'll write them down anyway, just for the sake of following the guidelines.
Character name: FistAndShoot

Character level: 233

Character job: Jett

World name: Reboot

Date and time of the incident: October 11th, 2019 - 5:30PM Eastern Time


Proof of completion


More proof of completion


The quest's reward message appearing blank.


The skill does not appear after the quest's completion.


Hawkeye is supposed to continue the questline with a quest titled "Power of the Spirit of Lightning" but no such quest is given.

Isn't it just because you're moving out of the range of your Final Damage-giving robot summon? Stay near the red robot.
