Hopefully, they put caps on each individual item, and not overall sparks / accolade use. Some items, like REM pages and whatnot, have no need to be capped.
It's gonna be a sparks / acco cap, not a item / trading cap

says weekly limit for exchanging points in the op, and i bet its going to be 1 dump
If they go with 7 turn ins, then monday everyone caps (yay gain-money) and then less motivation for players to play tuesday-sunday

If they would up the accolades storage to for instance 999999 then you can farm unms for extra gil

The thing is, SE has to realize that this won't do ***to stop the RMT bots, they can't be so stupid not to put it together that, "well won't the RMT just make more accounts and characters?"
It's like that meme, I am sure whoever brought it up was immediately tossed out the window. Like.... c'mon SE. As a side note, a certain person who is claiming to White Knight that Sparks needs to be nerfed, all the while also claiming that they care about the game and the only reason they spark bot themselves is to show SE that it is vulnerable and should be nerfed, is now "roflcopter, well I'm just gonna make more accounts" Can you cut the ***now? Your high horse just got shot. This is great news. I was tired of the paupers locking down the exp camps every time GE came around. Also- Enjoy employment, scum.

Active banning is the only way you will put the hurt on them. How so if they can just create new accounts? It needs to be a multi-faceted approach.

They recognize the pattern before they have managed to make a profit ban them. They will come back, they need to keep being banned. It's not going to stop until they actively police the game. But they are wanting an autopilot instead. Nerfs are lazy regulation.
You make watches, at a humans pace. Someone comes along and starts counterfeiting the ***out of your watches. The solution? Inhibit the legit person from making a profit? Problem solved? Let the counterfeiting continue? Leviathan.Draugo

RMT can, does, and always will make new accounts out the ***, their activities will not stop from this. Possibly might be the record holder for laziest nerf from them to date. either way it makes it harder for them, they have to pay more to SE which decreases their bottom line and makes it less appealing to bot.
they have to remake way more characters if they get banned. sounds like you're mad you can't easy farm sparks anymore honestly. its an attempt to deter bots and probably will be a successful one Finally, SE grows some balls to do the cut. The game just "printed" too much money and not provide enough products to prevent inflation.
They still going to bot the game until the end of time. However, you wouldn't see too much inflation. Unless SE screws it up and cap thing whole thing at 99k a day (or a week). Bahamut.Justthetip

Idk man you don't own the mobs. I personally think anyone doing gain exp is botting anyway so. Don't matter if its rmt or not a bots a bot. Also idk why people get upset saying someone took my GE camp but saying this is a good change this will make even more people camp on you.

This doesn't make ***harder for them. Hit cap, login another character, start bot.
And claiming additional sub costs as a hindrance is a joke also. 1-15 extra dollars a month to make thousand upon thousands of dollars a month. Most RMT armies already have the 'bodies' in place anyway. They have backup accounts ready to spin up for the off chance their active accounts get banned. This isn't even a nuisance for them.

I respect your right to have an opinion, no matter how insane it is. Why didnt they just set the Limited Time Challenges (ROE) to non repeatable at release 6 years ago , or just give exp if you repeat them and all other repeatables with 1 hour cooldown ( at least for crystal farming ).
They could rise the amount of Sparks to 5k for the limited Time Challenges if you just get Sparks once for them . However setting a limit to Sparks will force the Bot Army to do things like oldschool Dyna , Salvage (maybe) , Delve or VW . Means Currency , alex and HMP will be cheaper again and Beitetsu Pluton Boulders will go up bc the demand of these will be even higher as it is now. |
