Greetings all and especially any Devs reading this.

There is an issue I've been discussing with several players that involves obtaining various items at a later stage of leveling.

When you work with various mobs at your level, drops like peakyrinds from peakyturtles, though hard to get, do drop.

Going back at higher levels though and the drop rate is much much lower.

Now with trying to get Acrobat job training, You have to get 10 items from Aibatts, 5 from peakyturtles and 1 from Aiwolfs.

Unfortunately at level 15, they won't drop from the bats or turtles.

I killed over 300 bats for 1 item and again 300 turtles for 1 item.

Wolfs were easy since I was still close to their level.

As an example of the the difference in getting acrobat over, for example, a mage is this. To be a mage you have to get 10 pages from the Demains that are atuomatically added to your inventory as you fight.

To get the job takes about 10 minutes tops. Same for Assist. But I have been trying to become an acrobat for over 3 hours now.

Here's my point. If you are going to make the drops a requirement at a higher level, then make them drop much faster, for that quest only.

It shouldn't take 3 hours or more to become an acrobat and the other jobs only 10 minutes or so, and I shouldn't have to stand and beg people to sell me the items.

Seems to me a small coding change for that quest and other like it would be fairly simple.

Hmm, I'm sure they'll read this and get right on it!! O__O

Even if they did shorten down the rarity of the items, it's still a 4 part quest that is way more than the 3 older classes.

Fact is, you have to WORK to be an Acrobat. God knows why, maybe they are going to implement a l33t Arrow or something, but yeah, you have to work to be one at least.

And as for Aibatts, you don't need their drop for ANYTHING, dshouldn't you have 5 or 6 left over from level 1/2?

I Did The Acro Quest In Less Then 30 Minutes...

Its Not About Level, The Item Automatically Goes To Your Inventory(If ITs A BLue Quest Item), No Matter What Level.

For Example, I Did The Hair Coupon Quest, For The Plug, And I Had To Kill Nyangs, When I Was Level 43... And I Still Got The Nyang Items..

No GMs or Devs lurk here, sorry about that.

Even if you posted at the official ones your post will be washed back by the spam.

You best bet? Email the GM and wish for a hope.

Well, I avoided this problem by getting my job change items while still around the levels of the monster

Common Sense ftw!

[Dragoonus]

I had no problems getting the items at level 15, the Airbats dropped them on the ground rarely but the blue text drops (altough rarer then the ground drops back in the early levels) were much more common. Same for the Peakyturtles.

I think I hacked my way through an army of Airbats, but they drop in one hit, maybe two so it doesn't take too long. I guess your just having bad luck

[Tutu]

Perdy sure the monster drops are "quest" drops, too ( as in, they fall in your inventory ). Make sure you at least have that quest before you go around doing it, is all I could suggest. It'll have the same drop rate as normal monster drops, just that monster drops won't. . drop very well.

That's confusing. >.>

You can always buy it from the lower Vagrants, no? This way you can earn them some money and maybe create some balance within the economy.
