Does This Game Worth Playing?
Mabinogi is a awesome game with great ideas but not as good as I think. This mmorpg game is missing a major point there. Most of the players are playing pretty well in the game like doing whatever they want to be. But however, according to my experience, players wasn't playing as free as they wish to be because of two basic problems.
First, the durability system prevent most players from playing freely. That is the cause because once your equipment loss durability, then you have to repair it at the blacksmith and that cost you golds (the currency in game), the cost wasn't cheap either. By the way, it is very hard to earn more golds in the game because killing mobs only give you a little of golds so you have to do quest to earn more golds. In which most players spam the shadow wizard quest (the highest gold reward quest) almost everyday to earn more golds to repair or buy thing they want. As a matter of fact, I was one of them too but not too long because I quit pretty soon. Imagine that you keep repeating endless times doing the same quest over and over again is a nightmare. If you don't go to earn gold then your gears will probably be broken pretty soon and without gears you won't stand against the higher level monsters. Unless you don't like fighting monsters or pvp, otherwise you can't enjoy the game without gold.
Second, the style tab will be expired after 30 days. By the way, you can get free style tab coupons during the game events but that still have an expiration date. There is a glitched that the game will still display the clothes that you wore in the style tab before it expired until you rebirth or take it off and that only you can see it on. I mean what is the point of fashion without the style tab. Well, most people may figure out that they can put the fashion clothes on the equipment tab but that have two downsides. One is that the fashion clothes wore on the equipment tab will loss durability over time but the style tab doesn't. Second, if you wore the fashion clothes on the equipment tab then you can't wear the battle gears. Unless you switch the clothes and gears in different situation and doesn't want to show your fashion clothes during battle.

Obviously if you are doing a easy shadow mission, you shouldnt use high equipment. As even with trash you'd 1 hit everything.
Players can fix this with a small easy fix called beginners weapons. These weapons cost only 1 gold to repair a point.You can use them for training/doing easy stuff.
Players who are much higher don't need to worry though. As when you are high, it becomes more obvious how easy gold is to make. Though even when you are low it is still easy. Doing saga on daily days give you 30k, you have 9 possible character slots starting out as a new account, that's 270k a day You can just do ep 7 evey day and open it on it's daily days.
Selling drops like fine/st leathers will make it so you can make some side money. Also selling stacks of holy water will also be good for money. These are three things newbies can do. Not to mention there's even more. Even if we had someone who wanted to specifically do shadow missions, then all you have to do is make friends to do the missions with and they instantly become 10 times easier.
2.) The style tab is a feature to help them make money. It's a convenience thing. Wanna look good while you have your good stats? Gotta give up dem rl dollarydoos.
A lot of games have a second section of the inventory that is only for purchase. Be happy mabi gives you a chance to earn it, as they are not obligated to do so. Also, when you get high enough there's very rarely a thing that you NEED battle gear for. The amount of times on my main that I switch to my good gear is maybe only 10% of my mabi time.
A rumour come out; Does Bruno Mars is gay?Seriously though, what Zuomo said. There's so many ways around this. Just explore a bit. You may not get 1 billion gold in a day, but you can still farm well.
Also doing the whole saga on all 9 = 9 free pets with a aoe effect. Making missions easier and giving more space with its inventory.
Thank you very much, Zuomo and YangKoete for yours advises. ^^
They gave out the extra cards a long time ago to older accounts, if you didn't receive them send in a ticket.
Thank you.
I still think we could do with a few more, an example (Would maybe increase cash shop sales because reforge addiction too) this would be an NPC shop so gold gets removed, and make it all untradeable as well.
15x Fine reforges 300k ea
3x Credine 900k ea
1x Forgetful pot 2m ea
2x Direct dye amp 1m ea
2x Direct metal dye 1m ea
1x Enchant protection 2m ea
Maybe some other things as well, have that restock on weekly reset. I really doubt it'd hurt cash shop sales, it would be an incredible gold sink as well. The other upside is it'd hurt the reforge selling bots, and make the game much less pay to progress.
It does when you make the prices cheaper than buying them from other players.
Too tanky? Have you actually done sidhe/phantasm? Repairs are fine, if you wanna get that extra damage you gotta pay for it. Also when have they sold stats, aside from unneeded second titles? Crafted gear is still better than gacha gear too so...
It's a losing battle, but the dyes would at least provide a gold sink.
Creepy...Haunted....Spooky...Eerie...Icarus..... do those names ring any bells?
Ah right, forgot about those entirely tbh. I guess in the same vein there was the floor enchants too.
I agree 100% that dungeon passes cost too much considering the rewards they give. I've probably done around 200 AAHM runs and I've yet to see a radiant string drop.
Basically, 1) the game doesn't spoonfeed stuff which does not necessarily mean there's none.
2) repair fees are here for the extra fancy or effective gear so it feels fair.
