1.Significantly reduce repair fees and the cost of dark matter
While the focus will be placed on high-levels, we will be significantly lowering the overall fees for repair and the cost of dark matter.
2.Addition of item level requirements for high-level dungeon participation
We'll be adding a requirement to participate in high-level dungeons and hard mode primal battles that will make it so you need to have equipment above a certain item level equipped to participate. To coincide with this, we will be implementing a system that will display the average item level for your gear in the character window.
3.Addition of a party recruitment window
We'll be implementing a bulletin board type of system where you can recruit party members that are only on your world. When recruiting, you can indicate the dungeon you would like to do, the roles you are looking to recruit, the levels, etc. (We'll be announcing the details soon.)
Number 2 sounds good but if youd need to have a certain item level to get into hard mode primals wouldnt that make it impossible to stockpile all your tomes for relic/relic upgrades before spending them on anything else?
as for the bulletin board i hope they just mean a "mini" duty finder and not a physical board.. I mean lets sa I posted on the bulletin board for ppl ingame... whos to know when someone gonna red it and I recruit all the ppl needed.. by that tim e8 hours may have passed and i loggeg out or somethin right?
