Elysian ore.
- Thread starter prasko
- Start date
I dunno why its not not dropped from ely cave mobs. And i even suggested in a thread before that it could be ely shards that you need 3 to combine for an ore. Make the shards drop at enchanted mineral/soul prism rate. That way it doesnt drop like candy but would require persistent hunting to get what you need.

Tbh if i don`t see some sort of change i`ll prob just stop playing. Feels impossible to obtain unless a major event is in place (Xmas Event etc)
Could easily be made tradable imo to help boost imo what is a dying economy.
Make no sense to how u can sell the source or the orb but not the actual Gems or Ore itself, i believe all quest items should not be account bound and tradable (Except event pets)

It's a tough one because I don't even have an Ely Orb and before I do I will prob use L to upgrade my weapon instead. If I could get on for the hunts I'd have had one ages ago though, just about being able to attend the guild hunts and making the time available.
I don't mind them being tradeable because at least if someone wants to sell that to someone willing to pay 4-5k they still get something out of all the effort.
It's a staggering price tag to me, but I convert GG to £ in my own mind, maybe there's another fiddle going on somewhere in the game that most of us don't know about yet.

100% agree, pointless playing the game when upgrades are so time consuming lol we like to grind but im not putting 100hours into a upgrade for 2-3 extra stats lol. its not runescape lol its mir, i wanna do bosses and pvp not fucking chip hunting for 4 hours a night.

If 8 + people in guild need ore and you do epics that gives 3 ores a go . That's it it's not bugged . It becomes really hard to obtain ores , then in an event people are getting completed stage 2 items drop , Kinda make u wonder what's the point of it all .
I do think the way ore is obtained needs to be reviewed . Not saying this for my benifit cos I've a pretty much orbed my kit now. Just thinking of the future players tbh .

BDP is for everyone not a small group of people that control it. its like 1guild having all the walls, its boring

This is a hot potatoe , Scorps has said on numerous occasions that the intial design of these instances RDD BDP and the server load or pathing means its not possible to do as its crossover maps unlike Arena that was able to be done a its a single map
However I was wondering as this is the case why not add more maps like the epic Loki map and add in RDD mobs or BDP mobs could have ST map as it could be harder so like RDD BDP but evovled still have quest items blind ore drops subs etc but like harder or scales the end boss drops token next week guild leader intiates with that token now that instance become 1 times harder or the timer decreases you get the drift .....

If the multi instance isn't an option , then some more options like you mentioned there would be a great idea .
A lot of players in the game are 200 now , some only log for wars and BDP . So making more options maybe a new 195+ BDP/RDD style cave . Even look at making RDD better as the drips are shocking 150 items ? everyone's prefers BDP ? Those ideals you mentioned have some potential .

Exactly this, new players and especially those with families and full time jobs who dont have 5-6 hours a day to grind or make 5 different guilds to exploit BDP etc, its become a waste of time, so much that i reckon by the year 2030 i might have "Of Elysium" on some of my kit

Then i reckon you will be playing a dead server very soon unless changes are made, cos i wont be sticking around, ill prob just do what lots of others do and return for events only, because that is the only real opportunity i see of obtaining items/ore.

Same bud, i only play events now because theres no point. you can spend 3 hours every night and only get 1 upgrade item. or you can spend GG on bribes as this is mostly the only way people can upgrade shit.
Bribing is the only way to upgrade stuff once you get past EM upgrades imo, im trying to 198 my wiz wep and need two xl enchanted minerals. Thats 162 minerals. Their drop rate is terrible amd without bribing it would honestly take soooo long to do. I think im about a third of the way through the first one
And in regards to the rest of the comments. Rdd and bdp can stay as they are but we need another higher level cave to be added. Better drops, harder mobs etc....so the lvl 195+ players can really get their teeth into.
Honestly easiest change he could add is just have elysian mobs drop ely shards at low rate. Combine 3 and you get an ore. This would reward people actively hunting the cave/leveling and give people something to work towards and not be forced to compete in challenges or try scape an ore from a gc here and there. I see people making their own guilds nowadays to solo gc's and get ores that way, to try speed it all up. Its a way to do it but for people that dont enjoy solo play and actually want to stay in an active guild, they shouldn't be forced to create a guild to achieve this.
Honestly i think game has gone really unbalanced since ely orbs were added and also the recent event allowing everyone to upgrade their items for more ice resist. All the top end players now have 90% resist kits and still retain massive damage. This is too OP for mir mechanics, and has broken the game realistically. But since this is now a part of the game we can only go with it as the horse has already bolted.
If i could make changes right now with the next big update to the game, id do the following:
New 190 set based on holy crystal/cele/ely etc...
New game shop necky, para ring for 190+
New rdd/bdp variant cave aimed at heroes league players. Much harder, better drops and super bosses in there.
Elysian mobs now drop ely shards (3 for ore) at same rate as enchanted minerals.
Elysian shards now added into bribe npc in mongchon
Expand one more castle ( as there are so many) to be winnable by pve only. Abit like how pw is only winnable by arena. Maybe have a leader board each week for most mobs killed by a guild or fastest completion of bdp or rdd etc...
Sorry for long post
I agree that Ely ore needs to be accessible as oldwolf mentioned in another thread just add shards to make a Ely ore. I asked before but is there gp cave in elysium? One could be added and shards drop there.
I don’t see why it’s just guild oriented so many solo players don’t have a chance and even if your in a guild probs don’t have a chance because it’s get blocked all day which to me needs to be looked at. it’s not cheating but it is abusing the game mechanics putting so many people of playing etc.
Also at some point blame needs to stop being aimed at content and look at the players base itself. This game is extremely toxic and off putting at the best of times yeah this is a game and toxic behaviour is going to happen but if we remove that from the equation there’s a small handful of people on this server that is actually willing to take some time and help or explain things to newer players this to me is such a crucial part of the servers player count but for example I saw the same new player for 3 days ask the same question why ? Because no was willing to spend like next 2 3 mins explaining something. Since I started playing. 4 people have genuinely actually took the time to explain something to me
Kingcook/gritt/zadu/cspacecowboy
So thank you.
Then what comes from that is I can now give the same info to newer player then In turn they give the same to another newer player and we have less people stop playing because they don’t fully understand the game.
Instead what people want to do is go out there way to pk new players for nothing more then to feed there ego and give them a sense of accomplishment for the day.
Okay rant over.
In summary make Ely ore more accessible via ely shards. if bdp/rdd can’t be changed create something new but im afraid we’re just be in the same situation just with a newer cave. And mostly importantly don’t be a d***.

The only players with "of Elysium" kits are basically people either spending a tonne on the game or charas that are never logged off because arabs are working in shifts on the game, other normal players have 1-3 items upgraded from grafting, but I wouldn't worry about it as it's not like it will make a big difference due to PVP being completely dead, and I'm happy to do my part to help keep it that way. Especially whilst the scales are so lopsided. #PeaceNotWar

GM must be very frustrated about all the part time casual players expecting to be able to obtain things that were added for the purpose of giving the most committed players something to do.
If these ores were made easier to get, all that would happen is GM exchanges 100 angry messages from people who want things to be easier for 100 angry messages from people who are bored.
Ely orbs are an endgame thing for full time grinders, if you aren't that, then you don't need ely orbs. There's more than enough other things to aim for.

With the influx of ely armours recently, a lot of people are looking to upgrade, and with bdp and rdd constantly locked that isnt a possibility.
You don't want casual players to have a chance at the game? they'll just go elsewhere and spend their money elsewhere.
At the moment, the issue at hand is the lack of ability for SOLO players to obtain any chance at upgrading their ely kit.
-You can't solo rdd or bdd to get ore. Fact.
-You can't solo epics without a guild of appropriate level. Fact.
That excludes anyone who plays on off timezones or doesn't have a guild from ever progressing in the game with decent kit. Why play at that point?
