i dont complain often but what u have done with the pts is realy no fun when u have no program u dont have a little chance to pick up some gear from the elpys .I dont know what people want with 20 or more sets and still stay there and kill befor others have a chance
You just need to hang around for a while until ppl drop stuff cus they are overweight... Eventually people drop the things they don't want/need :)
Took me about an hour to get all the gear I needed (from FI), and about 2 hours to ++ it, element them, add soul crystals, get skills & OE them, and generally get ready for the days ahead hehe...
In past PTSes, players had to purchase crafting recipes and mats from the Test Server Helper NPCs. The only way to make the new items was through crafting, so the whole community had to work together and depend on each other to be able to wear new armor.
This year, we wanted to make it easier, so we started loading up mobs with full sets of already-made armor and weapons. If you haven't yet acquired the set that you want from the mobs we've spawned, you will surely have it within another day or two. Working and trading with other players is encouraged. Lastly, us GMs are still around advertising new and different ways to get the sets from us. With a little bit of effort, you will surely get everything you need. :)
