I know some people say well there no money in that but really there is if can get the right attention just look at Fortnite there have been players that have dropped 2-5k just on that.  I know id likely drop a significan amount regularly myself if it were to go to the console as its where I prefer to play as i have an ok pc but my consoles are just better performance wise, especially since getting ps5 soon as can catch an available one in a store]]>

        <description><![CDATA[Putting the the best mage weapons behind content where magic defense and magic protection are significantly higher has been the best idea Nexon has ever come up with.<br />
<br />
<br />
Magic Defense and Magic Protection of enemies has skyrocketed since the implementation of splitting defense/protection into DEF/PROT + MDEF/MPROT due to MDEF and MPROT scaling with the enemies' INT and WILL on top of having it's hardcoded MDEF/MPROT boosts.<br />
<br />
On top of that the removal of the gains of Brionac on magic through cutting protection when there was only one protection stat for the pitiful technique Pragrach to cut magic protection being vastly inferior to it's older brother due to awful restrictions and requiring to use one technique slot.<br />
<br />
Pragrach lasts up to 3 minutes with a 10 minute cooldown and requires erg 25, Demigod active and other skill requirements meanwhile Brionac only needs a minimum of Shock being used to charge Brionac to cut protection which effectively makes Brionac on a 60 second cooldown.<br />
<br />
<br />
Other micros include Premium Service's Physical Power Potion vs Magic Power Potions being bad specifically Magic Power Potions providing a meager amount of magic attack of 80 meanwhile Physical Power Potion gives 20% on top of being able to farm a free variant of Bone Chips from Bone Dragons.<br />
Comparing the both, you would need 400 magic attack for the Magic Power Potion to provide 20% more magic attack having more than that would mean you're gaining less than 20% more magic attack.<br />
Other things include how on Saturday's for the premium item of the day is 1 Physical Power Potion(30Minute) + 1 Magical Power Potion(10Minute) why is the duration of the potions so different.<br />
<br />
<br />
One of the greatest offenders are bard buffs in general which include Battlefield Overture and Vivace.<br />
Battlefield Overture provides no magic attack and in the current system, it functions as a converter of your &quot;Damage&quot; stat into Enchant Damage which functions on some Bolt/Intermediate magics, very high on Firebolt and little to nothing on everything else which would mean missing out on a potential 20-50% damage gain buff.<br />
<br />
Vivace seeming good for magic is actually the opposite as being different scaling from BFO, without the specific Vivace Magic Speed reforges it is inferior to Battlefield Overture for Firebolt and has other inherent problems such as Intermediate magics having a hidden soft speed cap from cast speed buffs aside from the Erg cast speed buffs from staff. Advanced magics see little to no gain from cast speed such as Hailstorm affecting only the startup time and not the charge time, Lightning Rod being a flat 2 seconds maximum charge time, while it cast speed does shorten Meteor's cast time, the locking animation is significantly longer than the casting time and provides mediocre damage compared to Lightning Rod for over 60x the cooldown time.<br />
<br />
<br />
Food buff items are hard to farm as Hard Cider +4 Magic attack requires Apples which are not purchasable from NPCs unlike Hard Cider +2 Max Attack which requires Lemons which are NPC purchasable.<br />
<br />
<br />
Magic Attack enchants being worse than +Max Damage enchants specifically for skills such as Firebolt and Lightningbolt due to the the Magic Attack enchants being much worse than +Max Damage enchants.<br />
An example is:<br />
Firebolt scales 0.35-0.5 minmax/MA which means Firebolt gains 0.35 minimum damage, 0.5 maximum damage per magic attack.<br />
Firebolt scales 0.2-0.4 minmax/enchant which means Firebolt gains 0.2 minimum damage, 0.4 maximum damage per minimum/max enchant damage.<br />
<br />
An example of gear would be a glove using:<br />
Mana Hammer(5), Embracing(3) = 8 Magic attack<br />
Burlesque(15) Backbreaking(15) = 30 Maximum Damage Enchant<br />
<br />
Converting this into Firebolt damage would result into:<br />
Mana Hammer(5), Embracing(3) = 8 * 0.35min0.5max = 2.8min 4max<br />
Burlesque(15) Backbreaking(15) = 30 * 0.4max = 12max<br />
<br />
On top of this, BFO and Physical Power pot are able to increase the gains from using Maximum Damage enchants further and blows the effectiveness of using Magic Attack enchants out of the water for bolt magic.<br />
<br />
<br />
The current inherent nature of Magic is anti party because it prevents your party from mobbing multiple enemies because it launches them all far apart with mediocre damage and are very slow to operate such as Ice Spear's standby time of 3.5 seconds, Thunder's standby time of 3 seconds and Fireball's standby time of 3 seconds(changed to 1 in KR test server). Hailstorm's operation is very clunky to use due to not being affected by casting speed or any form of bard buffs with occasional bugs where the time before you start gaining charges again is significantly larger and times when you are at 5 charges but the damage comes out at 4 charges because client side is at 5 charges but server sided is at 4 charges. Lightning Rod sometimes aims in a direction completely different from where your mouse cursor was at.<br />
<br />
I bet if there was a skill called &quot;Scan&quot; which lets you view enemies' stats, mdef/mprot would easily be 2-3x higher than def/prot<br />

<br />
Kicking things off with Events ending this week we're saying farewell to Blannid's Brave Boost Memoir Update, so you still have until maintenance on Thursday to finish up your Memoir books to get a homestead picture that can booth your Bonus Damage from 0.10-1%!  You can also get auction house coupons and a Blaanid transformation medal so if you want any of those, make sure to get those memoirs done!<br />
<br />
As a companion &quot;event&quot; to the Blannid's Brave Boost Memoir Update Event, the Cherry Blossom Rain will also be going away with this event, so no more cherry blossoms fluttering in the wind.  The Blaanid themed Attendance Check is ongoing until June 10th.<br />

<br />
Moving on.  The next event that's ending has been with us since early MARCH.  That's right everyone, I'm talking about the Playful Puzzle Event!  It's finally ending this week, so make sure you collect your prizes.  PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU COLLECT YOUR PRIZES.  Pretty sure if you don't collect your prizes out of that UI window where you fit your pieces, you'll lose your chance to redeem them.  Everyone has put in a lot of time to earn them, so I'd hate to see them lost to anyone!  Everyone, spread the word and tell your friends in case they don't frequent the news pages!<br />

The last item to discuss is the Sale that's ending this week.  It's the Street Art Box!  It's a little more modern than the game environment, but it's still a pretty fun looking box!  I think the Heaven Spot Wings are really cute!  Just like any other gacha, make sure to pick up any last minute stacks before they're gone!<br />

<br />
400k, huh? I'm assuming that the gold prizes will be constant, but this seems like this would only serve to make poor people poorer as they gamble their funds on trying to win the lotto. The middle players make 400k quite easily, so they'd only profit. The rich players wouldn't waste their time (if they were smart), because most of them RMT or farm 10-100m+ items to sell.<br />

I noticed there was a racial restriction for ranged weaponry which i am guessing gives a ton of dex. Be that as it may I was wondering if there was an alternative for giants to get Dex since my stat page says its essential for dex based skills and armor pierce. I've done the 3 chapters of memoir am 5.5k in total level and have been playing less than a week after finding out about this game from an anime called &quot;Recovery of an MMO Junkie. I could really use some advice and some friends! My server is Nao and my IGN is the same as my user name on here.]]>

        <description><![CDATA[I spent over an hour hunting sahagins for their shiny leather and use it for commerce quest in memoir but it never dropped shiny leathers. It didn't add camping penalty either. I asked some friends and guildmates and they said it would be weird if that is the case, certain Items not dropping cause your too powerful for the enemies that drop them. And just to confirm my suspicion I used my last tendering pot (cause I'm the idiot that only realized how useful they are after burning so much of them in the past.) and it worked with a 60 min tendering pot I manage to get 6 shiny leathers.<br />
<br />
Does that mean there is a possibility that some Items may not drop if the enemy is too weak. Could this be a glitch or is it an actual feature. what other Items would be affected by this. does that mean it was pointless to get stronger so that I could easily farm stuff from weaker enemies cause weaker enemies wont give me anything good at all.]]>
