Firstly, I hope that they fix the lag this update. The lag has caused me to skip turns in battle, so if the lag is gone then all the battlers should be happy :P. It would be better if they could explain to us how they plan on fixing the lag...but this isn't AQW, so I guess they'd like to keep everything secret :/. As for the balance changes, these are very much needed but I hope that they dont just add some requirements to a few of the tac mercs' skills. Hopefully the blood mages and cyber hunters will receive some new skills along with some buffs on their current skills. The balance changes probably wont be major though this update but it should hopefully help the other classes have more of a chance against the tac mercs. I hope that they dont forget about the old classes as well because they're just as important. It's great to see that there are some new armors for non variums that are non-rare! It's been more than a year since they last released a non varium armor, excluding the junker armor that was mainly intended for the mid-level players. These should satisfy the higher level players, and maybe they will have a bit more of a chance in battle against other varium players. Some non varium tac mercs might be dangerous. Varium players will receive an LQS armor? Oh no! There's just way too many flaws in Epicduel's LQS system and it's already evident from the DN's. Even if they perfected the system to make it like AQW's LQS system there would still be problems. We all prefer LTS's over LQS's for obvious reasons. In an LQS you could either stock too much or too little of everything, it could at an inconvenient time in your time zone. Epicduel thought they had a solution to this, restocks. This would work if you told us when you were going to restock and how much of everything that you're going to restock; the initial LQS should be in the evening for America, then they should restock once in the evening for Europe and then there should be a final restock in the evening for Asia. Once these restocks have been completed then the LQS items should be removed from the game. Unlike Charfade's items which haven't been removed, and now people just wait for random restocks. Charfade's LQS is an example of everything going wrong. We were told about it on the day of the release. We were never told the specific quantities. We were never given an exact time for restocks, but instead it all turned out to be 'when Charfade felt like it'. And we didn't even know if they would go rare forever, or would they just stay in-game forever and be restocked at these random, inconsistent rates? My point is that the items in the LQS need to go rare, just like in AQW, but they need to tell us that they will be going rare. Like you released bunny borg as a limited quantity item, but is it a seasonal item? Is it ever coming back? How do you expect us to know? Or will you just decide these things a day before the release? Things dont work like that in life, you have to be organised, leaving things to the last minute is not the right way to do things. I think that's covered everything I'd like to see from Epicduel's LQS's. I would like us to be warned before the release of the quantitites, stats and the looks of the items. I want there to be three restocks which are well planned and again, we would like to be warned of the time and day of these restocks. All of the items need to go rare once everything is sold out after all the restocks. They will never come back, and it lives up to the title. An item available in a limited quantity that was rare. For a lot of this to happen we need good design notes, Cinderella. There's a day left before the update goes live, and at this rate I feel that this will be another typical, failed LQS in Epicduel. It doesn't have to be like that though. You need to give us a picture of the varium armor, tell us the stats, price and quantity. Tell us the times of all the restocks (hopefully three) and tell us that it will live up to its name and never return. This is a big opportunity for this game, you can either dissapoint us all with another terrible LQS, or you could perfect the system using the simple guidelines that I stated. I dont think that a lot of you would bother to read my post, but I hope that Cinderella or Nightwraith can, or any other player who isn't lazy :P. I hope it's an electrical themed, rare armor with good stat modifiers. That would make my day.
