    That is why I use all PW gear other then my bouncing blade bow. So I don't have to spend all that time in events farming Draken cores. Might try that just need to farm PW's.

    They really know how to kill the hype, i give it to them, they' re good at that, a shame they aren't good at developing the game
    that can simply be solved by merging draken cores with either materi cores or the cores dropped by normal world bosses

    Why are they making this cancerous changes?They are being [EDIT] and they know it, they know that most people use crafted event items and most people require draken cores
    There is no other explanation of why they decided to make draken core farming much more difficult

    so you are suggesting him to change build because of easier cores, instead of adressing the core drop issue, such logic much wow,

    1.Why on winter event we have Essence of Destruction in progres bar? (we have essence of vigor?!)
    2.Why mystic cubes drop augment cores? (we can buy with mf, or farm on bosses, it is not something player need from cubes)

    1. Why are you nerfing the drop (at least in painful)? now the minibosses mainly drop two magic items, maybe 1 extra sometimes (1/4~); aren't you changing a lot of things to make it more fair? or it's just because you want to force newbie players to farm in highest difficulty lvls? so they will waste more resources (anders, pots, ess, etc.) and probably buy them, to get the same amount of glyphs than old players?
    2. Why are you -probably- removing Dark Dwarf Heist?, that event that gives us 3 runes of devastation, 2 jewels of enhancement and where we can farm a lot of amphora keys; It was a nice event with good rewards... And you are keeping Winter Solstice Festival without changes since 2015 (even the essence of destruction from the progress bar) , except for the rune at the bar, scalling difficulties and that new dungeon?
    3. Nerfing the drop of draken cores will be a really bad change a lot of us have will have problems getting those cores for the items that we use, for example: I use 6 items which use draken cores (3 from dragan, adorment from magotina, and 2/5 darkness set; and my tank setup
    3/3 dragan's protective armor -wich i don't use anymore, but probably will use it with the new Inf 4- ), and a lot of players use the same or 3/4 dragan, 3/3 witch seeker, and some mages/dwarfs use the bloodmoon weapon... and others the bloodtooth...

    This release is not about Winter Solstice Festival.
    Everyone who knows how the things are going on on Test Server ... knows that after each implementation of a new release all/selected events are being tested if the mechanics are working OK.
    So they are testing if the new mechanics are working fine with the next big upcoming event.
    That doesn't mean the event wouldn't face changes ... in fact there are already plenty of changes: changed drops, changed monster difficulty ...etc.
    If you pay attention to collectors bag ... you can notice there are already new Winter related emotes. That means the rewards and the progress bar will be changed later. There was essence of destruction in Collector's Bag at the start of this R ... it was changed to new essence later on.

    And most important of all ... it is a Free Open-source app.

    I know that the release is not about the winter solstice festival, what i was trying to say is why remove a good event (not enjoyable, but it gives nice rewards if you do it: runes, jewels and amphoras) and keeping one event that's much more time consumer (at least the big present and comparing with the DDH, the minievents too), furthermore with no substantial changes for years (some costumes and/or emotes don't count), and that's what I can see at TS (if i can enter). And if they didn't want to show us that "so unfinished" event, they could use that or those private servers, didn't they? and I know that it's more easy to let test it to the players... that said, i don't think that it will change too much even if we wait another year.

    getting on mount is fixed. great
    opening chests on city gets you unmounted. hope this gets fixed aswell.
    eeee make now usless wisdom runes great again.
    1 supreme rune of wisdom...
    5x stack of wisdom
    5% more drops of those crafty thingis
    10% faster harvesting those crafty thingis
    xD'
    increase chance to get uniques.
    where i get stuff to tier up cloack ?
    where i get andermant ? 90k+ for daily deals wich are nosense garbage. buy every day andermant ? this needs more ballancing that players feel more rewarded as they gain something better for such amount of anders-

    event prize drakens should be enugh that player will finish event and he can buy one unique item in normal or painful mode.
    there is delay using skills.
    mini bosses at desert map doesnt drop hp potions
    crafting is ruined. and by ruined that high cost of crafting even with random craft.
    and even expensive to combine same item types to get 4x lines wich still is same as on live server. but with even higher cost.
    green blue crafting is absolute basicaly. its not worth to craft them. just insta sell or drop, no point even to sell them..
    so only option to gain some coins by farming nonstop those secret lairs but it will be limited anyway so its really dissapointing to gain gold over 3 month of period from ranking list, where players are actualy bored to do pw ranks.
    . on secret lairs theres enough those hard corners where i get stuck.
    all modes drop same amount of glovers. this should be fixed
    from fatal to higher modes add more mini bosses corresponding each difficulty levels. a lot more a lot lot lot more.
    blue essence drop is deleted ?

    edit
    ee thanks ? for equipment refiner. increase from 50% chance to 65% chance to reroll item.

    ill have to disagree Winter event and the present are x10 times more usefull than the dark dwarf heis.
    100 amphoras and what are you gonna use em on ? karabossa for eventual drop from amphoras wheather The winter event gives in total 2 runes 20% armor so aka 20 clover +3 as drop and jewel of enchantment likeDDH butthe winter solcetice star tops it on all charts
    and i forgot + rune for run speed so aka 33 clovers in total from 1 event
    next patch you will be able to get the crit dmg runes plus on halloween they used them for gwenfara

    @Paavelson actually i like this its like in PoE and if you have lets say dropped some item with low stats you may try to improve them when you go for full max

    Sorry, I forgot that the last Halloween event was giving runes of devastation, but those were not obtainable in other ways than that event (not like the armor, and speed runes, the clovers can be obtained from DQ, recently, i got a lot) and DDH gives two jewels, wich can be converted to lots of anders if you use it correctly.
    And i wasn't comparing them only between the rewards, also the time, DDH requires much less time than Winter Solstice (you need a lot of hours if you want to open the present and get 23 clovers)
    I know that the runes will be obtainable with drakens, but nobody knows, they could raise the price to 10k drakens each (sarcasm).
    Sorry for the off-topic.
    And about the change to the equipment refiners, I wasted 30 clovers to try that with heredur's shield... and got my glyphs xd
    PD: guess who is not getting cores? yes, I'm not getting cores from zarpas. I killed him 7-8 times (1 on normal, 5-6 on painful and 1 on excruciating) and only got 2 augment cores from normal, I thought it was that they implemented autoloot, but I checked the cores and didn't change. Sorry for the language, but but you can understand it with the numbers. I didn't take more screenshots because 1. the first and two times I thought it was autoloot and other timesI didn't want to spend time on it.

    You and your guild mate spread false alarm. Is it really that hard to check DSO wiki? Last year "they moved" the solstice star from the main event progress to the Challenge#1 event progress. This info still applies for dailybuild_920.

If someone has any trustable infos...
