Avenger/Fierce/Allegro/Haunted/Spooky/Eerie accessories, 67th/38th/Meteoroid weapon enchants, Transformation/Dorcha/Deathmark/Elf Smash/Movement speed/Attack Delay/&more set effects, ROBE SLOT ENCHANTS.

All these things are gacha only things that should have never been that way. Special Eiren should be a craftable item, why should we alienate people who want a death mark boost, something that has become the part of some meta damage comps. Why should we tolerate enchanted accessories that are TRIPLE the power of what you can farm in game. Why should the best in slot enchants for 1h,2h, and piercing weapons come from a non in game source. Why should we be locking all these set effects behind a pay wall. It's not about farming in game money an buying LIMITED TIME items, it's about playing the game to progress in the game. Here we are talking about this armor, which to be fair is probably one of the least egregious items I listed in the initial line, but it's not JUST about the armor, it's about the principle of now having power in gachapons.

As for those who say that this game isn't PvP so it can't be P2W, sure you can't directly win against someone like you can in the likes of WoW, Eve, Albion Online ect., but you can increase your gold making, dungeon clear times, shadow missions clear times, and top the contribution charts for raids much easier. Just because we don't have PvP doesn't mean we don't have the means to be competitive in a mainly PvE game.

Gachapons are done best when it's appearance scrolls, fancy wings, tails, ears that wiggle, new animations, transformation medals, and outfit that scream Fa-Bu-LOUS. These wont effect game play and still generate revenue. Of course, nexon has learned that those of us who could care less about the newest wing will drop $1000 trying to get a max roll icarus.

Big Edit : I forgot how the best 2nd titles in game are all gacha.

She cray.

Box is tradeable. With the drop rate how it is I see it being worth 1-3m.

MabiDuel which is the original game for those who do not know has been out for a long time now and has been quite successful. It had a pretty good written story and really fun and great gameplay.

The problem with duel of summoners is not because it's a mabinogi tcg (mind you they have many original cards and art that is really really good) but it's the fact that duel of summoners is PRACTICALLY THE SAME GAME BUT NAMED DIFFERENTLY AND INTRODUCED AS A COMPLETELY NEW GAME. Apparently it has lowered costs of cards, and cards have an increased attack stat. But in essence it's the same gameplay mechanics, same cards, just brand new. And no you cannot transfer Mabiduel accounts to Duel of summoners because they are not the same game.

EDIT*
I recommend playing on the mabiduel version lmao.
It has more content and cards in general.
I don't exactly know what they have planned on adding to duel of summoners besides card stat variations but so far it's just been the same game.

Sad thing is I really liked MabiDuel as a card game. It had refreshing mechanics and a good deckbulding in game strategy balance. The game itself was well polished from a gameplay stand point. I mainly stopped playing cause I don't want to be on my phone all the time just to play a game (and do dailies on a phone really). When they announced this I was fairly excited thinking it was just a mabiduel web client.

To see it as a whole new game, complete with card booster microtransactions, did NOT make me happy. This does nothing but split the original mabiduel community and set both the mobile version and PC version for failure due to lack of playerbase. They really should have been the same game with cross platform play, that would have not only increased the playerbase but made the game a more solid TCG since you could trade amongst PC and mobile players.

The biggest problem with elves is that all they have is archery. Chain slash is Dex/Luck based and Giants deal the most damage with it (like fo-reals).

End game it really doesn't matter, all 3 races kinda can do just about anything but if you are a min-maxer or just someone who wants to be the "best" at somethings elves have the "lowest" (in quotes because all they have potential for is archery) potential. They can be AMAZING archers, but what about gunner, puppets, ninja, fighter, or just about any of the other talents. Chain slash was a lot of hope for them, but even then giants pulled out the best.

Either way, I wish I was an elf, just so I could have Elf-mazing archery.
