Increased Rates

[Plant]

I'm partially agreeing with this. I think 3x drop rate is already decent in terms of gears progression / farming speed, but I honestly think 3x card rate is stupid.

I'm going to keep saying this: Cards are crucial in heRO gameplay. You need cards to farm at an acceptable level or even perform in parties. It makes zero sense to all of them at 0.03%. Maybe, somehow, in some way, according to the ancient scriptures and the words of elderly sages, that it makes sense in an MMORPG setting, but heRO was honestly never a decently sized MMORPG to begin with only ~600 players including autovendors at its peak and therefore should balance to these numbers instead.

I don't care if 'weeks' are rookie numbers or it 'hurts' the economy if card rate are boosted. 0.03% card rate hurts the gameplay nor is dedicating weeks hunting one piece of paper rewarding and/or healthy to players in any form.

My suggestion, if you really want to lure more players into this genre/game/server and maintain it, is to crank card rate much higher than two decimal point rates, or balance card rates on a case-by-case basis instead of making all cards drop at the same rate. Make gear progression much more rewarding and noticeable instead of surprise-shitting on players during parties for not having farmed such and such cards when playing such and such classes.

If everyone is going to keep pretending that there's nothing wrong with:
1. Card albums being the main source of cards instead of the monsters itself
2. Players most likely not consistently getting any remotely useful cards during their grind from level 1 -> 99

then I'll just continue losing interest into this game and join the rest of the population that prefer spending most of their game hours in Prontera.

tldr: card rate stupid.
