    Yes that is exactly what i wanted to address :)
    Daily and weekly missions. If we could be alowed to complete all of them.
    That would be great.

  4. hahahaha , how many hours a day you got to spend on it ? ;)
    Seriously though, you are correct if we could complete ALL the missions it would help tremendously. I'd even begin to think it might be fun to do at that point.
     

  5. yeah would be great but its made for everyone one of the quest was do 2 delta Hard Quest it gives a noob 2 weeks 2 do that quest this way if he/she put all time and effort into it all the quest at one ufes would do it all in 1 day so in the end give noobs time to stay on track with the UFEs on the new lf4s

    Hi guys,

    I've been following this thread for a while and thought now would be a good time to join in.

    I'll begin with explaining the thought process behind this kind of content update, the aim of the limiting resources per day and week was to prevent the top spenders in the game just being able to obtain everything in a matter of days.

    Putting the resources in quests and NPC drops also means that players have to play the game, be out in the maps completing tasks in order to get this equipment. If we compare this to how the LF-4 were originally released where players just had to buy lots of uridium and open boxes, I personally think this new way of introducing content is much fairer and interesting.



    The main concerns I've been reading in various feedback threads is the cost and the time involved.

    The time involved is the main thing we are looking to improve. Right now, as I'm sure many of you have worked out, it takes about 4 weeks for 1 enhancement. This will be shortened through various means.

    Initially we are looking to including the new ores as additional rewards in galaxy gates and in event booty boxes. Events such as Hitac (coming in March) were also been reworked to include ways to increase the rate at which you can obtain these enhancements. This should happen fairly soon.

    We are also looking to add new repeatable quests which upon completion give a package of the ores needed in enhancements.

    Once these changes are implemented the rate at which you can get enhancements will be around 60% to 70% faster.

    The cost is something we will continue to monitor in relation to the time taken to obtain 1 enhancement.



    The ore package drops from GG should happen this week, however the repeatable quests will take a bit longer due to more development process involved.

    I'll keep you all updated on any further changes we have planned.

    Regards,

    OP32

    I am going to talk about Ores dropping in GG.
    So in couple of days ores can drop from GG from 5% to 15%.

    The problem is with Kyhalon drop rate.

    In the current state, you need 160 Kyhalon to craft a laser and you get 40 Kyhalon by doing Hard weekly quest, which means you need 4 weeks to craft a laser(considering you have other ores).

    So lets say you spam Kappa. That means you will get 15% chance to get an Ore Package for Kappa completion. When you get Ore Package than you have only 5% to get Kyhalon (5% Kyhalon, 25% Tetrathrin, 70% Befenon). Why Befenon drop rate is so high ( 70% )? when you can grind it.
    It doesn't matter if other ores drop rate is high when Kyhalon drop rate is only 5%. At some point you will have like 3000 Bifenon, 1000 Tetrathrin and like 70 Kyhalon??? and still you wouldn't be able to craft a laser.

    OP32 and Xmancode.

    I agree that it is nice to be able to get more involved in grinding the ores and doing quests.
    But as Xmancode said. Please do not add any Bifenon extras anywhere. I already have enough for nearly 4 laser enhancements after 2 days. SO really no need for more Bifenon.

    But tetrathrin and Kyhalon yes. but please try to balance it out. thanks

    Thanks for all to participate with your ideas in helping to achieve better things in DO.

    Thanks OP32 too

    Lets say you spam Lambda (5% chance to get Ore Package). When you get Ore Package you have 5% chance to get Kyhalon. This means that 1 out of 400 Lambdas will give Kyhalon Ore ... If you do 10 Lambdas per day you need 40 days to get ore packages from Lambda ... Thats just bad, as almost as Ore drops in GG are irrelevant, because no matter if you get other ores in the end if you don't have Kyhalon you still won't be able to craft laser.

    I agree with you there, therefore this is verry bad expacaly for low level players, they depend from the cargo box droped from Cubikons to compencate the skylab low production of Prometium used to upgrade our weapons.

    So, Dear Managers, Developers please reduce the Drop Chance of Bifenon from Cubikons to someting like 20%.

    As Xmancode point there will be a lot of Bifenons in our invetntory and it will be not used because of the luck for other resorses.

    I am voting and asking nicly the DO team to lower the price needed to craft the new E-LF4 and especially the number of Tetrathrin in the recipe, it is a litle bit unrealistic to kill 7875 Cubicon, do 360 Zeta/Kappa/Delta gates and it is very flustrating to make plans to do 1350 Quests in 1350 Days(3.7 years if play evry day) to have full set of 45 E-LF4.

    Can someone from DO team please talk to dev team and update the FAQ for LF-4 Enhancement to include the full stat sfor E-LF4 like the FAQ for Unstable LF-4 Laser.

    It be nice if we know officially what will be the Range:, Hit chances,Cool down and Variance value(if any) for E-LF4 as we know thiose parameters for U-LF4.

    What have you been drinking????

    Why you need so many cubes????

    Read this forum a bit more extensively. And you will find out some things you been writing here.

    The Stats would be nice to get yes. But E-LF4 should not be a fast assembly. that is the whole point of this.

    Just read forum and find out.

    Thanks

    :mad: It is my understanding that the new LF-4's are NOT upgradeable to level 16. So what is the point in having them?
     
  14. Even though they are not upgradeable they do it harder then a level 16 LF4, just not by much.
     
  15. please give us a chance to to get little bit increase of the drop ores required for new lf4

    There is one thing I do not understand from people who get mad with this new LF4 or any other new thing in DO.

    You should be glad not Mad. If you do not like this LF4 do not get it. LF4 lvl 16 hits 212.8 which is pretty much same as this new upgradeable will hit.

    So no need to be mad if you got all LVL16 ones already.

    I will repeat myself too. That the idea behind this new one. Is to get it slowly. even it if takes more than a year. It is just a nice addition to people who want to have something new. That is all.

    And soon as stated in forum. We will get 3 NEW ships. and a New event. So all cool. Just keep playing and have fun

    Thanks

  17. :s new lf4 hits 217 with a base dmg of 212 and can not be upgraded hence the 12 more dmg then a normal lf4 don't no where u get the 212.8 from even says that in the FAQ and people are mad because the game is still bugged and more and more stuff gets added without fixing the old bugs and on top of that they have to work for more dmg cos egos run this game and they dont like it

  18. the ores are been added to gate rewards there is a AO about it they could have left it to just the quest
     

  19. the new lf4s cant be upgraded so for this they changed the base dmg of the lf4 from 200 to 212 when you convert them meaning u don't need to use a lvl 16 lf4 to upgraded u can save over 100k uri and waste it getting the rocks to get the ELF4s
     
  20. ahh great thanks... by the way AO means?
