The drop rate is ok for most things but there are some exceptions like high-grade tag transmitters and energy converter drops(idd)/dismantle(aov).

hello gameforge, can u please remove the Fatigue system, for example try coding it in a way (by the help of Lion games) that it will not be consumed for entering dungeons, It's really slowing me down when gearing up.
Hello!
This is a request that popped up since the opening of our servers, however it is currently not possible.
You can find more details about this topic on the video found here , where our Product Manager answered several questions from the community.
Make sure to check daily our item shop and get daily energy items for free! 
Hi threea was it ever considered to allow entry after 0 EP but reduce XP, DZ, and maybe drops (altho drop rates bad enough so plz no)? This would be very easy to code in and make for a good compromise to 'remove' the EP system without actually removing it.
EDIT: In case anyone misunderstood, I was only suggesting reduced resources AFTER running out of EP. When you have more than 0 EP nothing would be different than it is now.
-
yes, the energy system.
why? is there any legit reason?
No there is no "legit reason".
The reason given was how much it is intertwined into the mechanics of the game. This is understandable, however they could very easily (with minimal coding on LG's part) set it up so you can still enter districts after running out of EP but you would receive reduced XP, DZ and possibly reduced drops but that would kinda suck.
So yeah, something could be done. They actually did something similar to what I described on a different server. GF could easily adopt this and tbh really should but they very rarely care enough get LG to make QoL improvements that weren't already planned.

I do not think we will merge because of Brexit
The exit of the United Kingdoms from the European Union is a running process, the key word Brexit (from English British Exit) into the vernacular into the European Union is a running process.is this a joke? there's plenty of reasons why eu/na merge might not happen but... really???

I do not know why you will calculate this post popular in Korea, but if you make the assumption that this is so this very small popularity. As for the new map system, I’m not particularly pleased with this ... it doesn’t matter in Korea or here. There are many drawbacks in this system .... 1 is the second tab of the master of the cards ... is absolutely useless (until the farm cards of hamsters are normally possible, because of the small chances) .... 2 - now cards with one appear in the transmitters star (which significantly reduced the chances of getting cards with 5 stars). However, I disagree that with transmitters and new maps we have worse than in Korea, and that would not be wordy here
. This video shows that the person opened 333 transmitters, of which received very few maps with 5 stars (note that there are many more maps available in the game). Now, someone will think well, so there are more cards here and so bad .... and now turn on your brain in this case, there are far fewer cards in the game, therefore, there are more chances to get good cards. If someone does not agree, then he is just an idiot and does not see in front of his nose. In my opinion, a slow update has its advantages, of course there are also disadvantages ... but at least the gap between new and old players is not as great as it is revealed. Perhaps trading in old transmitters can be condemned, but after each update new cards will be added to the old ones ... maybe the odds are not so cool, but you don’t have to choose.Neco can you please stop posting?? You're using Google translate and it's causing you to miss half of what we're saying and then when you respond it makes even less sense. Why are you posting a video of akasha opening ON KR?!? OF COURSE someone who opens transmitters on KR is going to have reasonable luck... because GAMEFORGE DOESN'T RUN KR and hasn't messed with the rates (or what cards are in the new pool) like they did here.
I doubt I'll get a straight answer from threea but is it normal for someone to open 70 NeoSanctum transmitters and receive only 2 of the new cards (like what happened to me)? You claimed double rate to receive new cards of same star level so with a sample size like 70 does this even make sense? I'm not the only person I talked to with similar luck.

Akasha Renewal Update
After checking further some details with Lion Games, we would like to share some information with you that are addressing some of your main concerns:
- As you might have seen, not all the new Akasha cards are included right now in the game. The current plan for us is to release new cards every month – the next ones will come with the server merge patch that is coming soon. It will then be three new cards – one 5 star and two 4 star cards.
- The new cards will always be added to the NeoSanctum Transmitter in the shop and have double the chance of old cards of the same rarity.
- This is the only change from the KR version, all other chances are the same.
As you can see, our chances are the same or higher when it comes to the new available Akasha Transmitters. - Additionally, every time that we will introduce new cards, the previously new cards will be added to the normal Transmitters as well – so you will have the chance to get them out of the normal Transmitters as well with a delay between releases.
Population – Server Merge
About the comments for the population of the servers at the moment, we have made it clear in the past that the server merge is our top priority for now and will happen very soon as announced in our Roadmap plan for this summer.
We are aware that you would like to have a content update instead, but this is a step that needs to happen as soon as possible and will eventually make the population situation better and improve your ingame life quality overall.
So the plan is to go the entire summer without new content? (A handful of new akashas doesn't count.)
Who at Gameforge thought this was a good idea? Our last actual content update was over a month ago (SCP) and the only talk of anything content related (Chii) isn't until the end of August. So that's basically 3 entire months without any real update. We are entering the summer with server populations that are almost dead and even after a merge it's still going to be low. Yet no plan for new content til the end of the summer? Am I wrong to see this as MAJOR incompetence on Gameforge's part or what? It's like you're deliberately trying to drive players off to other servers.
Not to mention there's still a bunch of new content we are missing:
-Corrupted records
-Time attack
-Primal hero mode
-Chii
-Dipluce Horizon + the Hidden Hideout raid
-Iris rework
-Summer events (and without Chii we'll miss getting her fashion which is terrible)
I'd think if you guys actually cared you'd be trying to keep up with the content to give us a reason to stick around. Dragging your feet suggests otherwise.

What a rant about the fact that the players are leaving .... you have a respected access to online statistics. This is the same as talking about cards in the store ... an unknown person spent $ 2,000 and received only one new card ... yes, where is the evidence of this, or take your words for granted. When I introduced loyalty, I said that it was useless ... and you would understand all this, but with loyalty you also further increased the chance of improving equipment .... what a coincidence is it not. The players didn’t leave, they just don’t come because of the lack of content ... since they’ve already achieved everything, they’re too lazy to pump other characters. You expect that, this version will tend to Korea, you are very naive thinking so.
hey neco the gf u said unknown person lol?? Lithi was super famous in NA server and even did streaming that spending $2000 for that limited akasha package lol r u seriously working for gf or what? Here is the link lol I really didn’t wanna share this but this onto you. Please talk about wheel too I will share that too. U r the only one who still supporting gf lol it’s odd right?
It's videos like this that make me wonder about bringing some kind of class action lawsuit against Gameforge. IDK how it works with the company being based in Germany though but any reasonable court would see that this is basically fraud.
-
It's only use is to be sold for some DZ. There's actually a bunch of items like that. Definitely confusing that it says crafting material. Some of these items I wish we could use as home decor (like the limited naomin figure).

Wow seriously no contents update til chii update on August lol?
Yeah this is turning into a disaster. No word about Dipluce, they couldn't even give us all the akasha cards we should have had with the most recent patch, Chii being delayed until the end of the summer for literally no good reason (seriously wtf?). No corrupted records yet even though we should have probably had this before SCP. No summer events when KR is already announcing a second round of summer event content. Even if we get a server merge this month who cares if there's no new content!!!
What the hell is going on Gameforge? If you can't handle this title please pass it on to a publisher that knows what they are doing. This is REALLY REALLY bad. It's no wonder people are leaving to alternative servers. You aren't even trying to stay competitive. You need to give the players a reason to play on your servers instead of others I won't name. Are you even watching your player statistics? You realize a good chunk of the player dropoff isn't quitting Soulworker, they are quitting your version of the game... and you have nobody to blame but yourselves for such terrible management. All this could have been avoided if you put in even the slightest amount of effort. Seriously what are you doing???
-
The good:
-Some new cards for once.
-Being able to fuse hidden cards from 2 non-hidden.
-Being able to merge cards into a card of 1 star level higher is kinda neat.
-Being able to remove Akasha cards for free without using Shiho
-The collection log book is nice
-Reworked artwork for Rita and BPP is cool
-We finally got the Lex and Lucy cards that were supposed to be in the game long ago
The bad (and seriously bad):
-ALL OF THE BEST NEW CARDS HAVE BEEN LEFT OUT ENTIRELY. This means no Tenebris, Veneris, Arua, Pixel Soulworkers or GC bosses. Those cards were basically the ENTIRE POINT of opening new transmitters.
-Lex and Lucy are apparently not in the regular pool like they were supposed to be. They are only in the new pool.
-When you merge cards it's like a 95% chance of getting a Grutin fodder card and not an actual usable card.
-The rate of getting new cards out of NeoSanctum transmitters is RIDICULOUSLY LOW. I opened about 70 and only received 2 Poy cards. Seriously? Only 2 Poy from SEVENTY TRANSMITTERS??? This is bordering on outright fraud. You could try to argue I had bad luck but 70 is a pretty large sample size and I've talked to multiple other people where the same thing happened to them.
So while this update is great in that we finally are caught up with KR's Akasha system, there is some major disappointment with both the withholding of cards that were supposed to be part of this (lol GF withholding content what a surprise!) and downright fraudulent drop rates on the NeoSanctum transmitters. Can't you guys ever do something right without embedding some kind of twisted bait/scam in the process? It's just shameful.
-
I actually rolled about 70 of the neosanctum transmitters and only got TWO NEW CARDS. Both of them were the same card as well and they were nothing special. Considering I was rolling neosanctum transmitters how did I only get TWO NEW CARDS OUT OF 70????? WTF KIND OF SCAM IS THIS???????
-
So KR has been running a summer event and I assume just like last year we will be getting it as well. Unlike last year however, it appears we'll be missing a character from our version (Chii) and she will not be in the game in time for the event? It's just speculation but I'm worried. Last year we got Iris right before the event so we were able to get her swimsuit and iceream weapon skin. The timing was great.
Here's a preview of the event and Chii's outfit is shown off around 2:09
It's pretty clear Chii's release is being delayed til the end of August as an attempt to stop the end-of-summer player falloff (and not for any legitimate reasons considering she could release today without issue) but this comes with some sad consequences. Considering none of last years' summer fashion has since been obtainable then if this event ends before Chii's release we'll never get the swimsuit.
I really hope this is not the case. Am I wrong to be concerned about this?
-
It's a real plague since the beginning for profit, why would that change now ...
Because due to Gameforge's terrible handling of this title most of the whales dumb enough to roll for these things have quit.
-
Don't forget why are sin brooches not back yet?
Every other brooches have returned multiple times already and all of them can be farmed but sin.
GF say they follow KR in terms of content and all but sin brooches were never released in KR to begin with and it all started from private(BSW). Everything in the market settled down and went down in price EXCEPT sin brooches thanks to easter egg event. It needs to come back.
Yeah only reason I didn't mention SIN is because we did get them at least once but I agree they need to come back. It's been over 6 months now since the one time they came around.
-
While there is a bunch of content we have yet to catch up on this thread is not about that. This is about content that should have been in the game by now but was probably overlooked. There may be more but this is what I was able to come up with off the top of my head:
Iris SFL, Maid, and Spiral Cats outfits
While we have yet to see a return of Spiral Cats since it first released over a year ago, we have seen a return of the regular maid and SFL is permanent in the shop. While these outfits do exists for Iris, she has yet to receive her version of them. It also appears Spiral Cats in general has been forgotten and is long overdue for a rerun.
4 Star Lex and Lucy akasha cards
As far as I'm aware these were supposed to be part of the regular akasha pool but for whatever reasons they have been excluded from the game. What's up with this?
4 star Lex: https://soulworker.club/Item/Detail/384008501--Lex
Lucy: https://soulworker.club/Item/Detail/384008101--Lucy
UPDATE: It appears with the akasha revamp these cards are in game now but no confirmation that they are in the regular pool like they are supposed to be. Can confirm they are in the neosanctum pool though.
Quality Solvent
These are supposed to be used when dismantling soulstones at Jenna to give you a chance at receiving a hidden/slumbering soulstone. Jenna's soulstone dismantle GUI mentions the item but we've never been able to obtain it. This means that aside from the single Christmas event (or since then trading), there has never been a way to obtain hidden/slumbering soulstones.
Legendary PVP blueprints
These were supposed to be available from Deleska by now. I realize nearly nobody is playing PVP anymore but we should still be able to buy these blueprints. Seems like an oversight unless AOV gear is now intended to be meta (PVP damage reduction amps being introduced for AOV armor could suggest this).
The mission "Special Arm 2" in Grace City
What happened to this? The reward was supposed to be a strength expansion ticket but it appears this mission is either bugged, overlooked, or intentionally left out of the game. (ref: https://soulworker.club/Quest/Detail/600665--Special-Arm-2)
So I think that's about it but if I missed anything feel free to add to the thread.
-
You're better off skipping vicarious and going straight for aurith or AOV hard gear. AOV hard is probably the quicker option (the ultimate goal right now is aov manic gear) but aurith is cheap on the market and could help you get a bit tankier to farm hard if you're finding it difficult.
-
I just don't understand the logic behind this release schedule. End of August is when everyone is going back to school. Is it a desperate attempt at keeping players as the summer ends? How about doing something to keep players DURING the summer? Dipluce? Great, but there's no reason this should hold up the release of Chii. She could literally release today if it wasn't for the deliberate withholding of content.
With so many achievements to re-grind on a new character we should have the summer to work on our Chiis. Getting her as the summer ends is unreasonable delay.
-
So the roadmap came out and they are claiming Chii will be out by the END OF AUGUST?!?!?! I can not think of 1 single reason why this should take so long. Translating content? Yeah right that doesn't take this long. Even the stupid forbidden server has her ADVANCEMENT already (btw if you noticed a massive drop off in players a couple days ago that's why).
We need our game to stay competitive with the other versions. Being so far behind is one of the main reasons we're struggling to keep our numbers up. A server merge doesn't do much for this either really but at least it'll help feel more populated again.
I couldn't stress more that delaying Chii this long is one of the biggest mistakes you could be making right now.

There's a bunch of confusing comments in this thread so I will try to clarify a few things:
-Vip level 2 is when you first get an additional 2% enhancement rate.
-Vip level 4 is when you first get the additional 3% enhancement rate.
-These do not stack. The 2% gets replaced with 3% at level 4.-The enhancement rate is added to the base rate. So with level 4 VIP (3% additional rate), an enhancement that originally had a .5% chance of success would become 3.5% chance.
-You can gain a max of 40 points per day per character and each VIP level costs 50 more points than the previous one:
100 from 0-1
150 from 1-2
200 from 2-3
250 from 3-4
300 from 4-5
-It takes 7 days to reach level 2 (250 points required).
-It takes 18 days to reach level 4 (700 points required).
-It takes 25 days to max out completely.
Also while the above is specific to Trisha, all relevant NPCs have 5 levels of VIP (not counting level 0) but slightly different points per level and max points you can get per day.
-
So I saw the moderator thread about the announcement and I just want to say thank you for listening to us it really does mean a lot. This is especially going to help the under-geared players who have been trying to catch up to their guildmates so they can finally farm current content together. Really happy to see GF making an attempt at listening to the community. Gotta give respect where it's due.
