    Am I just slow or is the box not actually giving out Music supplies?

    Why can I not select the Music reward either?

    I just noticed that in the reward selection that Lance and Close Combat appear as separate options. But here and on the event web page the Lance weapon is listed as one of the Close Combat option rewards.

    I don't know if this is just because I checked the rewards on a low level character or not, but none of the weapon rewards are the same as what's shown here. It's offering me a LLB, or Bear Knuckles, Broadswords, etc. Not a single Demonic weapon like was promised.

    I'm very sorry, I was mistaken. I believed that the box given to me by Nao as soon as I logged in was the same one as is in this event. I just re-read the event description and noticed the part about receiving a quest to talk to Caravan Joe that I missed before.

    So an absolutely useless event for people who actually have played thus far. :^S Not pleased. I came back about a week/ 2 weeks ago, too.

    It doesn't bother me so much, but it does just a little bit. Just a little.

    That's because that's the Potential System Nao Box. Not the Returning Player Bonus.

    That's not a bonus. That's from playing the game normally.

    People who have stuck with the game this long should get some loyalty reward, or something.

    This event is not for players who play regularly, its for the people who left for a long time. Its in the name of the event "Returning Bonus Event". Different targets; this event is aimed to bring people back. If EVERYONE gets it, its not special anymore. There would be no incentive to return, when everyone get something for nothing.

    Our "reward" for being a long time player is that you actually played and you got your gear, your money, your skills, etc. People who didn't play miss out on getting anything that you get from playing.

    A loyalty reward would suck since it would be geared towards a very one sided demographic: the very long time playing people. Everyone else would get left out or be given a lesser prize which is demeaning and that would make people think the game is no longer worth playing since they would literally never get to that level since the bar will always be raised.

    Besides, do you really need that free weapon?

    as a returning member i will let you know that before they gave you the weapon that you have to now work for, for free for 2 months with a repair cost of 1 each time... just putting this piece of information out there... *looks at my RM demonic infinity staff with magic attack +16 5 upgrades a gem upgrade and an artisan upgrade to increase Intel by 40 mana and stamina by 4 and a reforging rank 1 of magic attack 10 level* i earned better weapons later on so i only use that when I mess around since it repairs for 1 and I care not if it decays

    on a side note I think this event should apply to those receiving the returned militia event currently
    on another side note the returned militia event shouldn't end early on you after doing 10 quests... I liked my title it had 2 weeks on it when it disappeared because I did the event quests so not only did I not get the rest of the daily log in things your suppose to get for a month and the benefit of the titles

    Do the weapons bind on player, or can I bank them for another character on the same account?
