  • Will there be new BCNM drops in the older BCNMs?

    BCNMs are a great money maker, you gain beastmen seals while leveling, which can then be used to gain entrance to a battlefield for fun adventure profit and death, doesn't get better than this.

    However ever since the new IS BCNMs were added, the old BCNMs have lost alot of value in their drop values since alot of people just threw away the Erase scrolls obtained in the IS battlefields for dirt cheap prices.

    Now I'm not against whm getting this spell for cheaper, but the major attraction for many of the battlefields was Erase and Utsusemi: Ni, I'd estimate only 10% of the other battlefields drop anything that people will really pay for. Some of them have such low drop rates for their items that it's almost not worth considering doing them for, such as the Royal Jelly BCNM, I have personally done that one well over twenty times, and more with friends, yet I have never seen an Archer Ring drop from it, which is slightly beside the point, but it does get my point across about low drop rates.

    Will you add new items to the older and lower level BCNMs? As it stands right now only the lvl 60+ ones give any decent payback once the loot is distriputed amongst the participants, and by decent I mean roughly 50k+ per person

    I am not asking for items that will be super expensive, but give us an item or two in all of the bcnms that should be relatively unique, that people will be willing to pay a fairly decent amount of gil for.

    One interesting idea could be that all BCNMs in a certain location have a chance at dropping the same item, plus their own unique items. So say all BCNMs at the Waughroon Shrine have a chance at dropping an Orihalcom Ingot, as well as their own unique items. Maybe have a slight scaling system so that the higher lvl BCNMs give a better drop rate on the more rare items, or just give better items overall.

    Another change that might be nice would be to eliminate multiple drops of the same item from the chest. Now sure, this benefits players greatly since they will not get 4x slime oils or something similar. However I have gotten double Phalanx and Erase drops from the same chest, which while nice, really nice actually, perhaps it is something that should be changed.


    You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be misqouted and then used against you.

    I don't have a big ego, it just has a large mouth.
