Hurray, Teva gets some xp.

Zwivix 11-21-2007 07:56 PM

Aww why does Teva get less...

Oh well at least it's something!

Yes! my new XP boots card stacks!!

Yosei 11-21-2007 07:57 PM

Alot of people are going to be complaining about the % differences.

Pritcher 11-21-2007 08:02 PM

I guess because Teva's been around longest and has more high-levels already. Giving the newer ones a chance to catch up. That's what I hear anyway :rolleyes:

I don't see why that matters though. The servers are totally separate what difference does it make how many high levels are on one versus the other?

Yosei 11-21-2007 08:07 PM

True, but Fiesta has a lot of idiots, they're not going to give a squat about the levels. All they see is that their server doesn't have as much as the other server(s). Except Bijou people lol, I'm sure they're fine with it.

At my level.. any kind of boost is awesome o.o

Valentines 11-21-2007 08:12 PM

Shame, I won't make any use of it.

O-mie 11-21-2007 08:14 PM


Well I complained xD becaues it seems lke apo gets A TON of exp events, so it makes me sad =[

Yosei 11-21-2007 08:20 PM

I can see the logic behind it, but its a stupid move IMO. Unless they're ready to listen to the complaints. So what if Teva has the oldest(as in time, not age), highest leveled, and the most people on it. No matter what server we're on, we're all the same. We play just as much as the others and work just as hard. But meh... they could give us nothing.

lebatt 11-21-2007 08:24 PM

ok OBVIOUSLY the newer server will get more xp bonus.

Second Who Cares really .

You having a lvl 59 character on a different server will not help me any on my server. Will not affect me or degrade my character in any way.

So oh well good for them I'm on Teva and happy with the boost.

O-mie 11-21-2007 08:26 PM


I didn't complain to them, I don't care enough about it to do that. I'm just complaining in general. my logic is that - new players join teva all the time, just as they do apo and bijou. But its not stupid to have an opinion about it. There'd be less squabble if it were all the same anyways.

lebatt 11-21-2007 08:30 PM

OH i fully agree to a point i know what u mean.

Basically it sucks for all the newer players. And it's unfair and not our fault that people left Teva to join the new servers so we should get the same benefits. I think its because of all the higher lvls.

Also as you get higher... you get mad because u break items more.. so maybe u go to cash shop?? maybe it helps bring in revenue in a way?

Zwivix 11-21-2007 08:34 PM

Thank you O-mie and lebatt, for caring for me...Why cant Outspark be fair!!

O-mie 11-21-2007 08:59 PM


*Pats Zwivix* ^^;

Lilian 11-21-2007 09:06 PM

if they gave us nothing, people wouldn't complain because there would be nothing to complain about. that's not a very good reason for a sucky event.

10% increase will be something, but not much. it's basically, kill 10 mobs, get one for free.

personally I'm not comparing Teva to the other two because quite frankly, 20% isn't that much more either.

I'm more getting fed up with the way events are in general.

Hessah 11-21-2007 09:09 PM

maybe that's exactly what they're encouraging, that new players will go to bijou and apoline to even out the numbers a bit... maybe... just maybe.. who knows XD

but 10-20% is nothing compare to the 2x 3x exp event apoline's been getting~ (that's 200% and 300%! see the difference?!) so i guess i'm not too fuss...

i'm just happy that it runs for a few days (instead of a few hrs) so us aussies can still benefit from it -happy teary eyes-

Zwivix 11-21-2007 09:10 PM

-Cries-

Why?! Why always me?!

-Pulls out AK-47-

Thats it where is someone from the outspark staff...

Btw not moving, its so warm and inviting here on Teva...

Yosei 11-21-2007 09:55 PM

*takes it from Zwivix* Now now.. attempting to assassinate Izahead will get you no where. I would know. Just ignore the event ;p we have no losses here.

Zwivix 11-21-2007 09:57 PM

Your right Yosei-chan...your always right...Iza isnt the only one that I can take out.......fine I'll ginore it, for now.

Yosei 11-21-2007 10:02 PM

He'd get to you before you got to him D: I just saved your life. But good.. best to just ignore it ^^ *gives Zwivix a cookie*

+Tequila+ 11-21-2007 10:12 PM

Well Its not really fair depending on how you look at it but in some senses it is since Bijou still needs help developing its community. I mean the majority of the players on Teva have to be around lvl 50 *well should be but thats just my opinion* a XP event is not really gonna help there...But Bijou the high lvls are prolly in the low to mid 40s. And as for Apoline getting tons of events...if people on Teva don't complain about not getting events you'll never get them.

Yosei 11-21-2007 10:21 PM

Its like the government giving more benefits to all the retired people in Georgia, and just afew to all the retired people in Florida, because Florida has more retired people.

I'm laughing at myself for saying that.

Loveless 11-21-2007 10:25 PM

Being in Apoline I guess I can't say much. But if it is a Thanksgiving event, it should be fair for all servers. I can see if Bijou gets an extra boost being the youngest of the 3 but Apoline isn't that much 'younger' than Teva.

Hessah 11-21-2007 10:34 PM

XD ^ Yeah! Apoline would've aged rapidly with other event's they've got HAHA

AngellicDiety 11-21-2007 10:48 PM

I admit I've said that teva got "jipped" on this one, but honestly, Teva is on death road as it stands. When you get higher up there isn't much to do besides grind, war, collect useless items, explore, play small trivial games with monsters...

If you look at the past few events most of us fled uruga just to attend it. The dark forces event the week previous - I went the elderine just to have fun pulling 10-20 zombies and 1-shot killing 10 of them using devastate. (Yes I truely have Attention Deficit Disorder) Then came the giant monster event - which I thank dakkon for throwing - but we arrive only to find out the 1 boss was killed in record time. Dakkon being a nice guy gave us 5 more Giant Gold Robber bosses to kill as well as a returned slime - all of which didn't last very long.

It wouldn't be bad if teva got an event every now and then in Uruga to break the cycle of grinding.

I am thankful for the increase, although I'm just saying it would be nice if Teva had something to keep the population from quitting due to the mind-numingness of grinding.

+Tequila+ 11-21-2007 10:49 PM

Apoline should be close to a month younger then Teva if i remember correctly.:D x_X and @ Angelic Fiesta is basically on a road to dyin in a whole. You guys were supposed to get the new content this month correct? Its sad to see how Outspark is managing this game. Its been proven that they have the content they just refuse to give it you.

Yosei 11-21-2007 10:51 PM

I think its less than that.

Pritcher 11-21-2007 11:00 PM

Meh....

*goes to replay Portal again*

Loveless 11-21-2007 11:03 PM

I think that instead of writing here about the lack of events in Teva, it's best to either PM either Dakkon or Steam directly or post in the suggestions forum. Of course, don't make it sound all whiney either but more to address a matter of concern. As long as you don't make these suggestions sound like every other "suggestions" i'm sure they'll look into it.

O-mie 11-22-2007 12:33 AM


I'm just going to go on the ball and say it. *Mostly because ouside influences are ticking me off right now so I feel like venting something* I can't say for other servers but the events on Teva SUCK.

Its not hard to make events, even if you're limited. Its a sad thing when PLAYED hosted events are more fun and rewarding than GM hosted ones.

Last event we had went like.... "HAI go 2 mines plz lol"

So people go to mines. Wow, giant gold hill miner bosses. They die. Its still laggy. Then a returned ghost slime. It dies. Then a few spawns of treasure chests. The end. e_e


Its nice the GM's are doing events, but I'd honestly rather have exp bonus than things like that. Or player tournaments that are organized, where people sign up and those who do are teleported into one of the PVP maps or something. This cuts down on lag, people being idiots, so on and so forth.

Spawning massive monsters in an already laggy town doesn't usually make many people happy. Hide and seek? Boring as hell. Quizzes?

Now they had a nice idea with the decoding event; if they do more like that it will be interesting.

Also.... More on topic *cough*

Just because Teva is newest doesn't mean it has the most players. I say this because when the new servers opened up, I know a lot of people switched to try to have a chance at being a "top dog" so to speak, since Teva already had quite a few high levels.

And I agree with Angellic. Its nice to have an exp event but when other servers get it better, even if it is pretty small, its kind of a slap in the face xD;

They really need NPC-scripted events, with like gathering or something. That way, gasp~ less work for GM and more happy players. >_>

Lyoven 11-22-2007 01:25 AM

events wont brake the boredome of grinding. game content would. like the arenas or the battlefield mentioned a good while ago. heck, even merriages.
is there any point of guild wars besides that we are hacking on people instead of monster?
events seem to be more prised then the problems of the game. it freaks me out when there is an announce of "find the GM" while i can hardly keep track of my own chatting with all the gold sellers flooding the town. sorry for seeing things this dark sometimes

Izanagi 11-24-2007 10:25 AM

The different exp rates wasn't my call. I asked for even rates, but for some of the reasons mentioned around these and other forums, I was overruled.

Yosei 11-24-2007 02:23 PM

Oh well. I don't think I'll be using this event anyways D: Been busy with crap and I don't think my tummy liked what I ate for thanksgiiving.

VcougarV 11-25-2007 07:31 PM

i guess if you look at it from Outsparks pov - if they helped the oldest level gain exp just as fast - then they'd eventually lose the players that maxed out their characters sooner and hence lil less moolas for OS. eh?

Many of those who maxed out their levels still play for drops. Well most of those people who've maxed out and have crunched the numbers for skills and armour at levels 60 and above. People who factor in their stone-costs eventually figure that they need to begin farming monsters or field items like mushrooms and wood in order to cover the cost of armour and skills.

If you've ever been to the Ancient Elvin woods near the massive wood spawn area, you'll be amazed at what people do just to farm the wood there. They pull mobs of red trumpies on eachother, some even manage to bring spiders to slow the farmers down. In a couple of instances I've seen people pull the GIant Elvin Tree down just to clear the area...

It gets really heated there...

If you think the cost of skills and armour in your 20's are bad wait till you hit your 60's. Sure there is a long period of time between levels, but inbetween levels you literally have to be earning 600 silver - 1.5 gold per level to cover the cost of critical levels 60, 70, and critical skill levels. But buying stones for a decently fast grind can be expensive...
