There will be (five?) new Jewels and ofc the old ones as well.
And a rare/expensive new Brooch with 5 Slots that will not please everyone ;)
Hello ppl.
Thx GMs for changing exalted quest it was really necessary. it was long road of changing , but at least new players will have normal quest.
gj.. mb reduce whole quest to just kill instance-ekimus?... stop listening to tearjerkers
WTF IS WRONG ? on some servers all ppl get that item easily on others like naia 14 times in a row was darion and u wonna say that it is ok? stop behaving like that. That part of quest was for 1000% wrong. wonna make it harder? ok, kill 80 000 mobs, kill 10 ekimus, but not such stupid things when u have less then 1% to get on beleth and even if u got there then ushually u have darion. some ppl are already 101 on main and dual but havent finished this quest and u say that it became too easy? i gues some 1n is just siting in top clan and is not thinking about others at all. Start to think about others too and game will be better and full clans wont leave server. So as for me GMs politics is on right road.
How about the low xp in Kartia/CC/Baylor?
There are nothing saying about that, and now we get 50% less xp as the changes that happen a few months back...
Yes, the exp was somehow reduced, cause I do k95 every day with same number of people, and today I got about 50% of the exp I get every day. Is that normal? What happened? How about the items and NCoins we spend for an instance that is not fully working?

no option for complaint in ticket section.... where do i complain since they dont reply on the forums
Feedback goes here on the forums. Support tickets are really only for technical problems and bugs in the game. Please don't send tickets to support with feedback about events or shop pricing.
Normally I do not post on these kind of issues but today I have to stand up. 200$ for a 5 slot brooch is way too much that is double the price that the 4 slot brooch was and only 1 extra slot. You guys are ******* with us hard core. Just because it is tax time doesn't mean you need to milk us for money, now on to the 150 dollars for the boxes.... come on guys only 10 of the new gems in the new box set and we do get 100 of the old ones which is fine but I would rather pay for 50 boxes and get 10 new boxes for 50$ not this 150 dollar ********. Basically you are charging 1 dollar per old box and then 5 dollars for the new boxes. A lot of people don't care about the old gems to begin with, and if you say well you can sell them then you are feeding into the real money trading in which you are trying to fight. Get it together please. If you don't then I am done after this.I will quit this game and you will receive no profit isn't of some profit.
It would be nice if the brooches were movable within the same account at least (like Dimensional items).
Let's see, in the past I had to buy 4 (four) Diamond Brooches because I leveled 4 characters (one after another).
Right now I would have bought at least one Radiant Brooch if I knew I could move it between characters on my account as many times as I want. Since it is not tradable at all, I won't buy it, because it is not worth it to spend that much money for just one character.

then how do i get a reply to a complaint you guys just ignore us all the time and only reply to things that would choose to
Although we can't reply to every single comment and instantly make requested changes, all feedback is seen and reviewed.
reviewed you say? people have complained about your store prices many time yet you always make things more expensive.... why are things not affordable for everone im not selling my car just for one more broach slot
why add only R & A Gems to store and not any Top/High Spirit Stones ?
on Chronos one of the most active servers does not even have 100 Top Spirit Stones in AH and to seriously try get one of the better augments you need ~250 of those.. I know cause I did that the hard way when Spirit Stones were introduced the very first time..
also those prices are just to much, thank goodness I hate Oly so I don't have to spent like crazy now :)
I have 1 question. What happends with the chocolate cookies after the events end??
Edited for accuracy: The chocolate cookies from the Valentine's Day gift pack will not be deleted, but when the event ends on February 24, the Power of Love event cookies will be removed.
will at last I can answer , I understand not eliminate BOT lineage it is no secret that work to level the final work up to q quest .... shame really understand that do nothing but leave it to level PVP also ??????? it is impossible to pvp against a bot stupid know GM I think they are losing a lot of people because of the bots one day for the love of god entering hide go to gainak Parnasus and see how investigated have commanded more than 8 ticket and always tell me they are investigating is very difficult to deduce if a player uses or bot ?
.... no way sending ticket alwaysd answer me the same .... " this take so long to investigate these players etc etc "

They dont care if you quit, they got the big spenders (mostly heros) who will spend thousands on this game. But i completely agree with you.
Funny that wasn't mentioned in your notes Buster... eh?
It wasn't mentioned in the notes because it was a bug that appeared after the maintenance. We're investigating right now and are working to restore XP values to the way they were.

Well if it truly is a bug then I apologize.
Does that mean we will get our xp we lost or are you guys just going to adjust the instances back to the way they were?
No coins for your brooches until you make the 3-4 slot brooches tradeable or upgradeable to the 5-slot one. Purchasing the new brooch just to put the 3200-coins brooch into wh is beyond any average player's level of madness. Stop milking your player's, start working on people's demand!
Btw, here is an easy suggestion for your lazy minds: at least you can try adding the NPC dialogue to change the opened brooch back to a brooch pack (incl. a certain fee) - just like it's done for the Longing Talismans. It's a horrible promo until you make something like that at least.
Demasiado caro todo el nuevo brooch por 200 dolares y solo te da la opcion de poner una gema mas... prefiero seguir usandolo e ir cambiando segun el uso..
Ademas si tienes el otro brooch lo pierdes por que no se puede tradear.. ni vender...
Varios tenemos la gemas level 3 .. si adquirimos las 100 que cuestan demasiado muchas se perderan ya que combinar dos de level 3 es muy dificil y siempre fallan.. al final con suerte obtendras una de level 4 ...
para las personas que no tienen gemas esta bien , pero para los que ya las tenemos seria un gastadero de dinero..
la verdad un asco el evento... si lo piensas bien no vale la pena comprar...
There is currently a known issue with the jewels from the Shiny Shadai's Jewelry Box. Jewels from this box are currently not able to be combined.
However, we are working on a fix and will have it in as soon as possible.
so for those of us who have wasted money/adena trying to combine these... is there going to be a return of the failed item since the 2nd copy disappeared?

It's really annoying how you always get more expensive with every event.
First I thought to buy a second box but now I think it's not worth. For 8k ncoins I would have bought three but 12k is really too much.
Sadly I think the rich ppl will buy some but I hope that all together it's not as much as you thought/hoped. Plz think about your pricing. It's better if more buy for a lower price instead only some for a high price. And if you motivate the ppl base to play and not to quit.
It wasn't mentioned in the notes because it was a bug that appeared after the maintenance. We're investigating right now and are working to restore XP values to the way they were.
Give us some proper vitality items, for example. The ones that restore 1 bar of vitality at least(so we can use Maphr and Frozen scrolls during kartia and raid bosses), those Valentine day cookies are a joke.
Lol what happened whit kartia 95 25b xp whit marph 200% + rune 100% we are buying pots vps + runes for nothing? before maintence W/o vp i was geting 45b xp...... btw will we get compensation? like kartia 95 pass since we are losting xp on dailies....
You guys cry about cost of brooch etc , but seems you didnt realise what else happened in game. 30% DEBUFF RESISTANCE???????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????? So basically all jewels worth nothing atm, too bad i spend so many billions try get them. ppl who have garnet cant get cursed/stunned etc , almost all skills are worthless. better have in f-bar attack and next target only when go pvp........ game just got destroyed fully

This is boost to basic character statisctic, so if your character have basic 10% debuff resistance, with garnet lv5 you will have 13%. Same way work aug. 15% crt. rate and 15% crt. dmg. It's not +15% but 15% of your basic character, so in real stats it give like 1.5% with garnet 3%. This jewel is useless...

I wouldn't call it useless, the purge is nice IF you get it to level 5... but it's not worth the slot compared to the massive pvp damage boost gem (with bonus chance to remove celest if you get to level 5). Leave it to NC to add another gem that will further unbalance the game.
It's also not worth it compared to the reflect damage resist, with another CS at level 5.
I'd say it's generally not worth it against the damage shield one, depending on your gear and who you are fighting either... but unless you have pretty good gear, you're going to need level 4 or 5 to make it remotely worthwhile. And even then, it's basically just an oly jewel. 50k damage for 15 seconds isn't anywhere near as good a a pure CS for 10 seconds.
And that's really it for the new jewels. The XP one is of course better for pve purposes, and the old ones (other than the aquamarine) are pretty much all more worthwhile as well.
In general.... this event would have been fine minus the PVP jewel and lowering the cost of the jewel boxes ~25-30%, upping the chance of the radiant shard, and keeping the new brooch as 100% in game with a very rare chance out of the jewel boxes giving you one as it does now.
I think that would have made everyone happier all around. Players for a more balanced event that didn't have another game breaking item for those willing to pay a LOT to get it, and NC for making even more money off the people trying to get higher level old jewels, make adena, and get the new brooch/jewels.

Ummm yea..... That's kind of a big mistake.... Any idea as to when the jewels we be able to be combined? Have all these jewels I cant do anything with.... So everyone hurry and buy so you cant use the items that are over priced..... EVENT = EPIC FAIl..

Once we know what and when the resolution will be, I'll make sure to post it here.
Any update as to when we can expect the XP from Kartia/Baylor/CC etc instances to be restored and the new jewels bug fixed ?
a price fix would also be advisable as all you do here is push players to your competition whom has 2x cheaper prices and even the option to buy the jewels you want for a higher price aka no randomness!!
up to you of course in how long you want this game to continue to stay running.
Seriously ? 200$ for one shop item ? It's the most expensive thing you never did ... Last year the biggest brooch was at 50$ ! Why you changed it ????
You are totally crazy. Come back on the earth !
Come on ! It's unbelievable ...
Seem's you wanna kill your own game ....
I have to agree with everyone else on the pricepoint of the new brooch. $200 USD is borderline obscene, given the player base. And changing game mechanics to make the brooches necessary for any successful pvp outcomes would be criminal. At the end of the day it will be interesting to see how the players respond.
well I would like to see their justification for the steep increased prices used here compared to the last 2 brooch events we had..
Well, i remember few years ago...when... before the massive discounts periods shops acctually rise prices with 20-30%.....tricking customers :)

<img src="http://i.imgur.com/u35CROB.png" border="0" alt="" />
i got a very specific question to gms as well to players.
Why items like brooch jewels are introduced only as events and flash sales once or twice per year and not as events/flash sales and also to be added to ingame npcs like the normal updates are?
And my question includes as well more items like abundance talismans,hair accesories with 2 stats etc.
p.s. plz understand that ofc ppl can pay to earn items from events but not all own a private oil company to buy items that should be also ingame and not only in store
and last fast question why exp from instances has been nerfed since on the server maintence post was no info for that

Because keeping them limited to special occasions means they can roll it out whenever they want to make $$$.
for those who complain because they have 4 slots brooch and now they released 5 slots one for 16.000nc coins be carefull maybe next year they will release the 6 slots brooch for 25.000 nc coins and you will come again to cry. It's just a warning. And about kartia exp i hope they fix it fast cause i wasted maintaining vitality potions and maphr scrolls to get less exp than previously. Maybe you put kartia 200% exp for 2-3 days for compensation about this issue?;)

Seriously, this things are expensive like hell. Some people sold their kidneys to buy these boxes, and what? They do not work? We still cannot combine them!
I understand you are tired typing zeroes in the end of the prices, but maybe it is time to fix this issue finally?
As I said above, as soon as I have an update I'll post it here. Right now, it's still undetermined.
I just hope for emergency (not now that I am doing Ekimus to finalize my Exalted) and not having to wait one week with this bad xp!
In duo k95 at 100 lvl xp is sooooo little and kinda renders kartia/baylor/cc pointless!

If that was bug giving adena or ncoin that was already done ... its xp they dont care !!!
I have one account logged in - from earlier; but none other is able to get in atm.
I'm having the same issue. My trader account is still logged in but I cant log another account. On Launcher screen I get "Login failed. Pleased try again in a few minutes ( 42)".
My problem returned.
And I think that has to do with the NCSOFT ISP (TELIA) blocking too many ip from all locations of the world.
If possible, I wish they could get in touch with the administration of TELIA for all this to be resolved.
Thanks in advance.
I have Telia Sonera... Coth who complained about same issue in this thread few posts ago is from Sweden who have Telia Sonera as well..
I have had some problems with Telia Sonera in other games regarding their own Firewall.. Basically it blocks the "package transfer" in between sender and receiver if the package name is in their "block list"... Thusforth their Firewall doesnt let the package transfer through.
If you have a particular item you'd like a screenshot of, I can try to get one for you.
Just to be clear... the Wedding Packs and Gemstones look orphaned, separated from the Brooch Items without their own title or dates of availability.
Will they be Available February 10th to March 9th, 2016 just like the Brooch stuff?

Speaking of those Wedding Packs... the Wedding Veil and Bouquet can be used as appearances? (Screenshots? :D ). And the Wedding Ring, Wedding Cake and Flower Shower give something of special bonuses/stats?
Time counting, 3rd day of the event and bug still going on. Lets see NcSoft how far will you go. We all knew that u care for ur clients that pay but u overcome this point! Hope ur valentine break u up at 2/14! hahahahahahahahaaahahaha

Coronet, Ribbon, Varka and Veil... no Idea if Veil can be used for appearance. Bouquet seems to be Misc. type weapon, the majority of that type of weapon has been changed to one-hand magic swords(you can still get Heathen's Book C-grade at Giran Weapon store and some C-grade Recipes/Mats from Recipe Merchant) http://i64.tinypic.com/6s3z40.jpghttp://i65.tinypic.com/2a8gtb5.jpg
