Shard and Arcane Fossil

[Golem]

As we see this items drops novadays almost same rate as Legendary items. Its really wrong in my opnion. Sts should remove them from rengol lockeds and available only on locked tokens. Ty
here is some example SS of price novadays. I saw and heard many plat farmers getting them so easily cus droo rate. This is just wrong. Pls change even them rate for now ty.

Even new Ideas for using those both items for new crafting things would be great. Like crafting new mythic set or weapon or crafting toor to gold Toor. Lets share our ideas!! :)

Everyone has it...its OK..they are old stuff....new things are probably coming I guess

[Robhawk]

Imho the shard isnt outdated. Its a thing for other arcane upgrades/items too!



Arcane crafting is a new feature available with the Dragon Enclave expansion.

Tradeable Arcane Shards will be found very rarely from Locked Grand Crates of the Watch. You can use a special recipe to combine Arcane Shards with essences to create the new Arcane Ring: Rendtail's Dragonstone.

The recipe for the ring can be acquired from Kaden the vendor located at the Expedition Camp. Use the currency most valuable to the Tinidirin natives: Dragkin Teeth, to purchase the recipe. You can collect Dragkin Teeth by defeating world Bosses, though they drop more frequently from fearsome Elite Bosses. You can also use them to purchase other valuable items from the vendor such as Dragonscale Chests and new Legendary gear.

Check out the stats and graphical effect of the Arcane Ring in this post: http://www.spacetimestudios.com/show...53-Arcane-Ring

The exciting part of using Crafting for this is the possibilities for the future. While we will only use Crafting for this initial new Arcane Ring, it may extend to old Arcane Items and additional new ones.

From start i guess if sts didnt made drop rate that low ppl bought more platinums so it was better profit for sts. This way making this low drop rate is paradice days for plat farmers. Cus from start when saw token idea i was wow good idea and nice profit for sts cus only those can buy shard and fossils w tokens who use one acc and buy a lot plat to open lockeds. But this idea is broken cus those plat farmers get them easily than those who collect/farm those tokens from lockeds.
So my idea is to not make that low drop rate for arcane items to make Plat farmers away from what they are doing.

Thats is not the problem, haha WHY? All the richest in the game actually have arcane ring and nekro egg, now the other demand is poor. The poors cant pay 20m for a shard. for that everyone put cheap prices.

[twoxc]

you're forgetting that SHARD itself is USELESS without PVE players farming Dragon tooth which is the second ingredient need to craft an Arcane Ring. So really doesn't matter how many shard drop it all depend on how many dragon tooth are being farmed and being bought from vendor cause that's how many arcane ring are being made. Also don't forget Ancient planar Pendant also require Dragon bar to craft.

Fibus had mention. ARCANE RING and ANCIENT PLANAR PENDANT will VERY LIKELY still be best item in their own category.

I see you accepting plat farming. I wish sts could handle them and ban all of them. But this way they can handle them when not give easy chance to them. So Making Drop Rate harder it will works!

I don't see any problem.

It decreases the gap between poor and rich.

Let everyone have fun and stop complaining.

Best and soon can buy 100k lol

There's no problem here. The issue in the previous expansions was that anyone with 100+m could easily manipulate the market by buying up these scarce items and then inflating them all. Right now, the common players can prevent this by spending just $200 and have an endless supply. The limiting factor now and always should have been is the farming element.

To most, 2m for shard is still a lot of gold and the bars would require them to play the game as well. This new closing of the gap between rich and poor is best for the economy. Elimination of the 100+m prices of things should have been here from the start but glad it's finally here. Let's face it, there was no way I could have afforded rings and nekros when they were still 40m each just a month ago. At least now it's farm your heart out or pull out credit card. Win win for everyone.

Its not true. Those who have chance or plat farming or are illegal players sholdnt just have fun. Cus they are illegals!!!!!!!!!!!!

Listen my friend and friends. You all sounds like u havnt played this game after new cap. Fossils and shards stilk be available with tokens even if they rice drop rate 100x it dosnt make them anymore even 10m. So u think 10m is 100m. LOL try understand my friends. My idea is really good just think about it little positive side

[dontmatter]

Hopefully STS has plans to use the shard for new items...

[jiazataoe]

Hope make drop chance very rare for arcane item :)
Make good price arcane item than mystic i thing

Now very need even dobel chance teeth drop lol

[Oursizes]

So first you made threads about opening tons of lockeds and getting nothing. Now while a lot of good items drop from locks you want it back to the way it was? Lol.

[Allocate]

Actually the game was dead and this was their only way of bringing everyone back together and have them running maps and circulating the wealth.

If they hadn't, this game would have been in big big trouble. Could you imagine, coming back to the update with nothing but restoring Garetta and some new maps that don't really have anything in them at this time? A uphill struggle with gold and rare items that only the super rich have? No way of competing with the 1% or even a chance at those arcane items/pets. No real reason to even run maps?

The game would have been on life support and might as well have not released the update.

[Dex Scene]

I don't get it. First people complained that lockeds never dropping good stuffs.
Then when they do, it becomes a problem.

I think they are just fine.
Most of rich people have them already. They wont need any more of them and so they just sell them away. Middle classes who don't have them are buying them for crafting their own ring and they can't and wont pay absurd amount for this.
And what's wrong in people becoming competitive.
If you try other mmos, you will not find this amount of gaps between rich and poor.

No thanks. Its fine as it is.

[xcainnblecterx]

How is this wrong? Because you can't sell a shard for 10+mil? Get over it, its fine the way it is. Geez since 16 cap its been one complaint after another hardly any "thanks sts, what a great way to let poor peeps get pro items easier"

[Trojan2100]

Its not true. Those who have chance or plat farming or are illegal players sholdnt just have fun. Cus they are illegals!!!!!!!!!!!!

There goes again using plat farmers excuse to get ppl on your side. This entire thread is about you and your profits.
Like I mentioned long before bring us proof , you've using plat farmers excuse long enough bring us something or are you assuming again? 2m for shard is still a lot gold for most of us , share the wealth stop being greedy.
Sts finally did something we all been waiting for pure farming for best gears , arcane items price dropping. I see more people playing , farming more than ever. It makes the game very enjoyable when you see somany peeps around. Keep up the good work Sts

[Oursizes]

So you dont want f2p players to compete, or "illegal players" to compete either(whatever that is)? It seems youre afraid of getting farmed in pvp or having someone else chosen over you for new elites.

[Golem]

So first you made threads about opening tons of lockeds and getting nothing. Now while a lot of good items drop from locks you want it back to the way it was? Lol.

Did u knew there is Massive locked and normal lockeds? If u knew u understood my previous thread which were about massive lockeds. This normal lockeds gave me back all what i lost already. I hope u understood and know now different between normal lockeds and massive or large ones. This is reason y plat farmers open them cus they cost only 5 platinums. Read this pls <<<<<------------

Enough with your theories, since you know somuch about them you should know who they are by now . Without shred of edvidence your post is meaningless.

[Wazakesy]

Again this kind of thread....?

In your last thread you mentioned you had a loss of 50million gold on spending on planar chests or rengol lockeds for getting shard/dark crystal. You make these threads like as if this game must run accordingly on your wishes - you MUST loot arcane shard/Dark crystals from Planar chests/Rengol Lockeds.

Get another game or face the situation your in.

[Golem]

Or if drop rate stay same i hope Sts Finds new using for shard and fossils. Like for new Crafting things. It would be awesome.
its not about mine profit... got 400m+ and i think its enought for one player ;) and maybe too much. :D
Just more use for shards and fossils would be great

LETS KEEP THIS THREAD FRIENDLY AND SHARE OUT GOOD IDEAS :). PEACE EVERYONE!!

[Bluebatthing]

Op ***buys up all arcanes*** >>> "for the love of cats, nerf drop rate please" >>> (hopes it gets nerfed = massive profits)

As many others have said, what's happening with the ingame economy is doing wonders to the overall health of AL. I have never seen so many people online in my guild farming their behinds off. Prices of arcanes being affordable gives the average players something to farm for, more players = better AL no? So please, let the average Joes have their share of fun.

[Serancha]

Key words in that are "possibilities", and "may extend". They get your hopes up while not actually saying anything as fact. True politicians.

[Titanium]

If it wasn't plat farming shard wouldn't hit 80m .

Shard/fossil at this price range supports the middle class spenders/f2p .

Pve farming pays of after 2 years.

[epicrrr]

Not that many can afford a 2m, believe me 5m is very hard to make even with elite and some merch, was possible during earlier events. Easy farming usually at the start of every season/map and events.
