Remiem's Weekly Community Update | March 30, 2016

[Remiem]

Almost there!

Greetings Legends, and welcome to your weekly community update!

Announcements

So close you can taste the cryogems!

You're nearly there! With 24 hours left until the magic seal breaks--you guys have nearly filled the bar to hit Gold Tier and open the magic portal and launch the counter attack on the heretic gnomes. So far all participating Arlorians have earned their Underhul Mythic Helm and Armor, and are well on the way to the Amulet and Ring. Congrats!

We'll drop a full announcement with all of the details about the new content when that seal breaks!

Game Updates

Glintstone Mythic Set Conversion

As you progress through the Curse of the Cryostar content, you'll start to get items that exceed your Glinstone Mythic Set's power. But what to do with the old pieces? In this update, you'll be able to take your old Glinstone Mythic gear to the Crafting Station and break them down into Glintstone Coins to use toward you next set of items. Remember, this can not be undone! So be sure you're absolutely finished with the items before you convert them.

Item progression is an important part of any MMO, and a critical aspect of keeping the game fresh and fun for our players. As hard as it is to have to let go of items, especially ones as hard earned as the Glintstone set, we hope you'll enjoy the new content and new opportunities to build your character to become even MORE awesome than he/she already was.

Nordr is Now Open to All

All players can now access Nordr. But, we still recommend you only brave those dungeons at level 25+!

Expansion Weapon Changes

As outlined in Vroom's itemization post (here: http://www.spacetimestudios.com/show...f-the-Cryostar) we've made a few changes to the Curse of the Cryostar expansion weapons.

+ Curse of the Cryostar expansion bows and guns now deal 200% basic attack damage.
+ Curse of the Cryostar expansion staffs can now hit up to 4 targets
+ Curse of the Cryostar expansion daggers will have statted armor

Bug Fixes
+ Received system messages appear on the HUD once again.
+ Cryostar crate drops now look like chests instead of eggs.
+ Dovabear art has been rolled back to previous model. He'll be back in a future update!
+ Fixed a few places where Ren'gol crates were still dropping.
+ Glintstone token vendor belt stats have been updated.
+ Fixed typos

Other Bugs

We'll be continuing to work through bugs related to the new client and expansion. If you have found a bug please be sure to report them in the Bugs and Technical Issues forum, here: http://www.spacetimestudios.com/foru...ssues-and-Bugs

A lot of you have been asking about our regular seasonal events, like the Arlor Egg Hunt and the Goblin Event. Not to worry! We've still got some regular favorites headed your way. Keep an eye out for the Q2 Producer's Letter that will give you guys the latest on what kind of releases we're getting ready for post-expansion!

What do you want to see next, folks? Let us know in the comments what you would like to see us put our attention on next and share your most brilliant ideas. I'll see you in next week's update!

If the original Glintstone set breaks down for the same amount as the free set.. just LOL, more stupidity. How about let us upgrade the original set?

Everything else looks good though.

Only the Glintstone set earned through questing can be broken down. The Opening Event Reward items cannot be converted into Glintstone Coins.

Not sure how I feel about a set that took so much effort to craft becoming broken down, seems like admission Glintstone sets were a failed idea. Atleast we'll get something towards the future though I guess. Ty for the reply.

[Darkluciferx]

So can we level up to 56 tomorrow?

[Ticklish]

Tokens.. A mere pittance for what we paid for, for the amount of work needed to even acquire one.. Wish there are more impressive items in the vendor that would warrant our joy in this gesture. As it is, it is lost on us. We want to see something in the vendor that would make those tokens worth it. Please. Otherwise it is merely a gesture. And those who did not craft the Glintstone set and merely saved their gold, have won. Because we put our faith in STS.

Will the new mythic from vendor purchase with these token be tradable?

[Imhotepx]

I have trouble understanding your vision of the games that has changed since the beginning of the year 2016
First -even have to pay for crafter you are really funny
500pts is like 50k not many but is joke
Convert a set for coins but the NPC has ridiculous reward
I love this game but for some time he takes a wrong direction
Not fun at all
Ps:stop ur secret nerf and talk more with community before kill the game

[sevenpain]

How about able player to remove the gem from the glinstone set ??

This game is become more and more expensive to play

[DarrenPR]

So... am I correct in assuming adding MASSIVE damage to imbued (level 41) gear was intentional? To be honest, if that isn't taken care of, everybody is going to be using lvl 41 gear at 56 cap because of the stupid amount of damage the gear gives.

[TW84]

And what of the crafted Vial of Orcsbane we have? Cryogem Fragments? Fangs? Runes? Insignias? Whatever else i forgot?

And dont make it usable for something stupidly hard to craft like glintstone set was!? And not untradeable!

[zerofort]

Well as annoyed as I am about last expansion I hope you have learned from your mistakes and make this exspansion better. You may have noticed my postes lattly have been negative don't take that the wrong way I care about this game and Wana c great things from it

[Anynna]

Please Rem let us have more coins in converting these glints ='(

[arcanefid]

This part about Glinstone set...

Does this mean if we don't farm the new maps... we get better rewards? That's what has been happening.

Guess I'll just quit until this new expansion ends and I catch up with everyone in a single hour of playing.

[Ticklish]

I'm sorry, but the more I think about it, the more ridiculous this all is to me. You had us deal with bugged red zones in rengol maps in order to farm for hundreds of orc fangs, even included a useless pre-quest before the Glinstone quest. And now, it will be relegated to tokens?

And that (obviously bugged, hooray for owners) imbued set which Darren just mentioned is adding insult to injury.

For months, we spent time, gold, and money to gear ourselves up in new glintstone and jewels. And yet, at the end, all of those efforts were for nothing. Because they were trashed by those old imbued gears. Can you imagine how insulting it is to find your brand new and shiny fully nobled gear overshadowed by more than 13 damage PER PIECE of imbued?

My mind is still reeling from all of this. 150m worth of gear and jewels (no exaggeration), put to junk by imbued gear worth 5m apiece. And now you say the Glintstone set is worth a few coins.

Let me know where the punchline is because this is all just a very cruel joke.

I just looked in the token shop... um yeah this is a total farce. As this was also a craftable item set with stupidly long wait time.. what about the people who used plat to speed it up? or do we just forget about that.. Great start to the expansion lmao.

[Ticklish]

well if you think if it having the crafted myth set gives you a great amount of advantage against players without em...

so if you decide to advance to level 56
you have a jump start of getting your myth set and putting jewels on it

and yes a lot of people spend millions for the myth set but those set are not trade able so once you reach level 46 you're gonna be a PUG because that is 10 levels less than 56...

Honey do you even know what PUG means? And did you even craft the Glintstone set? If not, you have no business talking about it.

P.S. And can you please use regular font and color? Because the use of bold font indicates you're trying to highlight something. Since it appears that you wish to be a pro forumer, it will be considerably more aesthetically pleasing and less confusing if you would adhere to that instead of just making your whole post "stand out".

[Lyziz]

Whaaat??? Sts that is so disappointing.
I never exspected that this will turn out of the glintstone gear idea.
I wish i wouldnt have had trust in you guys and would have saved my millions and time. This set is just way to exspensive to let it go just like this by converting it into coins.
I have the feeling like its a very bad joke.
Its not just the glint set. Something/a lot is going madly wrong in this game since a while. People have quit the game, and it wont get better like that. This isnt a way with the community... this is greed and against all logic. I just can say that i am very dissapointed from you guys. This set made me broke... what i have from it now? Lots of people are in the same situation just because you guys seems to have no idea which way arcane legends is supposed to go. Honestly, what was your idea or meaning of making this set? Reducing the amount of gold of some people or even leave them broke ig? Making them busy?
Its a shame that something that is so hard to obtain, and seemed so promising is reduced to something like that. Not well made sts...
