IMO the drop rate of what is dropping is tremendously too high and basically worth nothing lol while the other pieces are not obtainable by any mean other than AP. Oh well saves me from spending. Thanks for the update, I'll wait on higher level set.   You'll be waiting a long time. This is gonna be tough on a reseller like you. Your call if you want to miss the opportunity. As Sighborg said-- We have left the vast majority of stuff to remain available in-game, and our goal is to move toward AP systems that make sense, such as pets and costumes.   lol nice one Tics. Resellers harm the game. Keep up the good work

I do love when people respond without knowing what they are talking about.
General point, resellers are bad. Otherwise this is no big victory post


Honestly this scares me. You are seriously trying to spin this as a good thing for the movement of gear sales in shaiya?

Costumes and pets for Ap? Yes.
Removing gear from quest and drop tables that were originally built into the system in order to sell them to raise your profit margin? This is a huge step back in my faith in the direction of Aeria's game management.

Come on Aeria, what happened to supporting players? Those of us that have stuck around for this are still hoping you'll see how these decisions only hurt your profits. If items dropped in game I would have strongly considered linking this next set. LCs, Ops, Lapis tiers, PLHs? This wouldn't have been enough for you?

I don't really see how making more gear items receivable by AP only is going to shift AP spendings to pets and costumes...

The post says that for now, they will be AP only, and their hope is that they can make it so that by 6.3 patch, only costumes, pets etc is AP. not that they are going to make all AP

Non slot helms are attainable in game.

I did the helm quest in VR and recieved helm with slots not dreamy .. But just medicus helm with slots

Now at EP6.2 Helm Boots and Pants will be AP items only and EP6.3 will be pets and costume Will be AP as well ..... it will be AP spender for all of us lolz
