Thoughts on the new gear

  • After introducing the new non-tradeable gear in which way should we go? I mean, who invested millions in gold gear whether getting or enchanting them, now is kind of pi***d off. So frustrating. What I am concern as well is, "The new version of the gear is somewhat weaker than the existing version". Is that mean gold gear is still gonna be the best? Or is that new gear a way to get (in the future) the mythical gear.

  • well from the current patch point of view, this new gear would be good for ppl that dont really care about stats on gear, expecially on chest/boots since dps wise is not a big deal compared to weapon/glove stats but at the same time we lack a lot of informations regarding this future mythical gear and how this will influence in the future so well idk either, will just wait and whatever, not like there's any content right now worth of gearing for.


    is definitely good for alts gearing tho

  • So that would mean that gold gear will still be likely on top but what I am wondering is, is that new gear an implementation by GF or Nexon? Also, as far as I remember, someone mentioned that the mythical gear would be created /crafted/... from HO + gold gear. Maybe I am wrong...

  • I feel bad for whoever enchanted this new gear when they already had normal Annihilation/Dark Light stuff.


    As of today the mythical gear is officially out on Korea, and looking at the stats, eternal mythical gear (aka the one you get from enchanting the non tradable, "easy" gear) is significantly worse than normal mythical gear - besides the lack of the 5% damage and extra lines on the weapon, we are talking about 15% lower base stats (!!!) on every armor piece which then also influences how much you get out of enchantments.


    Yikes.


    Literally the only people that are helped by this gear are casuals - who most of the time won't even be able to clear AQ properly to even get their hands on this gear - or people with horrendously bad RNG who would be stuck at +9/10 forever due to the ****ing downgrading.


    In other words... Eternal +15 mythical gear is about as good as +12 normal. So, if you can reach that, don't even bother with eternal unless it is an alt or your RNG is THAT bad.


    90000 IQ Bluehole strikes again.

  • If im not mistaken they didnt mention in the preview that base stats on eternal mystical are lower too which is ........ no comment i dont wanna flame.


    They treat the community like cows.

  • Just get eternal and hit 480 with it, apparently new dung can drop mythical gear. On average it will cost less than making normal weapon +15, especially with improved being almost 50k each currently.

    Do you really think you can just drop it that easily? Wtf even normal gold gear drop rate is abysmal what do you expect with "mythical" Gear :lol:

  • Cool, this thing becomes more confusing every day.

    As a player that can't farm munch WB or AQ (I just reached 77 runs since the launch of AQ), I pretty munch decided to just go for Eternal, since random bonuses doesn't provide munch dps in the end.


    Then they said that eternal mythical weapon wouldn't have the passive so I thought to just take normal weapon and other 3 pieces eternal.


    Then you said that even the stats in general are going to be lower... Crap, I don't know what to do anymore at this point.



    So, does anyone have screenshots/translated tables or something like this?

  • they made sure eternal gear is utter garbage ot promote inot mythical to shove the ppl that want ot minmax inot gonig for the more expensive route

  • I feel bad for whoever enchanted this new gear when they already had normal Annihilation/Dark Light stuff.

    I feel bad for people who are forced to P2W to have an ilvl of 480+ to do new content!


    Even if the Eternal set is inferior, you can easily reach 480 and most of all save like 2000 Euros! Because for me I think I would rather spend this money on other stuff then a set that will last for 6 months

    This guy knows whats up. As it stands enchanting normal set to +14/+15 needed for ilvl480 is cash shop exclusive for anybody who didnt have millions upon millions in their bank from old patches. 35-50 per improved weapon shard, 20k+ per click and another mountain of gold to keep repairing.


    All of that on one side and "but u lose some stats and mythical skill" on the other side. Most people have choice of enchanting eternal or not participating in future content, because spending all that money just to enchant temporary set is insane.

  • the random stats arent the only thing you loose.

    I tried so hard, and got so far... but in the end, it doesn't even matter...

  • To be fair you get a fair chunk of ilvl from the mythical gear upgrade and as far as im concerned, you get the mythical upgrade stuff from the 461 ilvl ones

  • So let me set something straight, because several sources all provide conflicting information

    Let's say I have two sets of boots - +15 Annihilation with no rolls, and +15 Eternal, like shown below:

    Will they have identical stats when promoted to Mythical, or will Annihilation be stronger?

  • Just check the Korean Section on Teralore.com -> I'm not 100% sure but left seems to be Eternal Upgrade and Right is Annihilation Upgrade - so yes it will definitely have lower base stats. (Great Job Bluehole, u fking retards)


    Done.

  • Weapon will have the same amount of Amplification(just missing the 5% dmg when over 80% HP) but the rest(Armor,Boots,Gloves) will have around 15% less Amplification stats than the normal Annihilation Gear.
