This server, as everyone knows, is 7 years old, and I've been a player here for 7 years since it opened. Since its launch, there have never been any changes, either as an in-game event or a permanent modification, regarding earning extra Ceramium Medals and extra AP. Even in the retail section, we had a really nice Ceramium Medal events, giving new players a chance to compete(like x10 time enterance of KKM in a day event etc.). This is a 7-year-old server; even the average player has 4-5 different equipment sets on their character. It takes a month for a new player to even build a BM set, let alone an AP set, which is almost impossible, especially if that player is an Elyos; because, as you know, Elyos can never truly dominate the KKM fortresses. In short, to make this server more welcoming to new players and to ensure fairness in competition, it's essential to implement processes that speed up the acquisition of certain PvP equipment. Open-world PvP is literally dead. There's nothing new, and furthermore, there's nobody new. We've been getting bored of playing with the same people for about the last 3-4 years. You need to create an environment where new players, even starting from scratch, can catch up in the competition. As I said, this could be making it easier to obtain a Ceramium Medal or making it more accessible through events. I'm not talking about unsustainable systems like getting 1 Ceramium Medal for 60 BM in a PvP event. This could be something like; the 3 daily Ceramium Medal quests that came in version 4.7, or adding an NPC where we can convert 20-30 BM into 1 Ceramium Medal. Or it could be expanding the reward pools for PvPvE events like siege/swb/kamar/jmr/runa and giving more Ceramium Medals. It's entirely up to your creativity. But I want you to know that as a player, this is not a very attractive server for attracting new players. New players have no chance of competing; they need to have been actively playing for at least 6-7 months to be eligible, which makes the game quite boring and leads players to quit. Please do something to make it easier for new players to acquire AP equipment faster and more easily, and to earn Ceramium Medals and Abyss Points.Instead of short-term, truly ineffective events, we need sustainable and lasting real solutions.
Cheers.
