Please consider extending the Golden Frog Event

Definitely keep it around until after Aeromancer comes out. When Scouter first showed up, gold Evo books were 13k per, now they’re 3.3k a pop. And now I can finally afford to get my Paladin his gold class books. We need more supports, please consider keeping our golden child around for a lot longer. Thank you.

A big thing that people don’t realize too is with card packs offered there’s usually a limit to what you can buy

I looked up the jars and there’s no limit, you buy as many as you want

The card packs would be treated the same if they were unlimited buy which is why I think they get away with it in that regards

All chars build, who needs only one level class engraving, have always cheapest gold book. Because they dont need them, only one acc with +5.

Generally it goes cheaper, but not a hugh gap you hope for that. Support engraving is very demanding yet and every new engraving added (like new class) all gold books will be a bit expensiver.

My Barrage Artillerist, thanks to the new balance update, needed full gold BE books to make 5x3. +5 BE anything was outrageously expensive, especially if they included Spec, which I need. This event got me the rest of my gold books, along with three Paladin gold books. Please keep this going until we get all of the classes online and going.

Please, SA economy was really fucked up before, but with the frog it is getting so much better, new players are able to afford things now and it can get a lot better if they extend it for like, the next update.

Yeah please is really helping with the economy would be cool an extension

not fully true, cus then cardpacks would count as lootbox too, from my knowlegde and following netherlands news on lootbox marked as iligal a way to bypass it is by posting the chances of getting certin rarity in them, a lot of gmaes have done that too keep there lootboxes in netherlands and belgien, non disclosed lootboxes is consitered iligal, where disclosed is not.

the news headlines like netherlands ban lootboxes have been wrongly reported or twisted a bit,
as long as the % chance is disclosed they can sell

No. The cards have 0 market value. They are immediately untradeable when obtained. How could you miss such an obvious fact… The lootboxes that are banned are ones where the items obtained can be traded/sold at some form of market value and can lead to gambling addictions, as well as ones purchased directly for real currency that have market value and no limit to how much can be spent at any given time or to obtain a specific item within.

and skins bought for real mony dont sell for real mony, they sell for gold so this is also out of equation

as far i know it cant be traded outside the game for real $$$
skins dont have a outside mony price, BUT only a INGAME currency price. that can be earned by ingame activity, hence why fifa lootbox passed the border anad was demmed legal, those lootboxes could be bought whit fifa coins that you use real mony to get, also fifa has an ingame marked like lost ark where lootbox items can be sold for the coins you earn, and buy for real mony.

and yors jar would be in same legal aspect as a fifa lootbox. THAT is pulished and sold in netherlands

I think this not only helped inflation/price of engravings but the amount of engraving books.
Some engravings you can’t buy all 20 at once, even right now, but having another source always helps with the supply and demand.

With the damage done from RMT/bots, I think they should keep the frog going until they can effectively keep the bot numbers down. Since bots are still horribly rampant, as soon as the frog poofs, prices will shoot back up and supply will also go down.

It’s not about outside the game, it can be traded for real money through the game. I’m sure not many, if any players at all would do this, but it’s not about whether they do or not, but whether it’s possible to do so.

They can be, and that’s the issue. As it is now, you can buy/trade skins as direct purchase, which is no issue. Adding a lootbox to that equation then becomes illegal.

This golden toad event is one of the best things to happen to this game. With all of the horrible issues we face with stability, this event has been a very positive thing. It’s helping to bring down prices, so a 5x3 is actually achievable for more people. If the event stays it will only help to drive prices down even more and allow more people to enjoy the game and not be gatekept for not having good enough engravings. The material boxes also help a lot! Please keep it around for the foreseeable future.

At the very least a 2 week extension would be great. 4 weeks would probably satisfy most players needs though. The engraving prices are slowly coming back to reasonable price making it easier for players to enjoy endgame content and NAW BC issue is calming down a bit, but not quite where it needs to be.

Thank you for letting us know!

absolutely! It really helped smooth out some of the pain points of gearing characters! So please extend it up to…I don’t know on the top of my head…I guess 3 weeks after Aeromancer release. :smirk:

One other piece of feedback. Please consider increasing the pheons rewards across the board. It’s such a scarce element. And consider beafing up the Express Events to contain more leapstones and more pheons.

Yes, I sound like a bottomless pit but…it would go a long way to achieving player satisfaction. At least mine I guess.

+1 to see it staying please.

the difference one takes real money and the other ingame gold.

No ?

One take golds and the other one take skins. You can get skins in game without spending money.

You can try to make very nice story about Netherlands and Belgium, fact is that the only thing they care about are microtransaction involving loot boxes. So far Yoz’s Jar has nothing to do with microtransaction, it’s just a NPC in game that convert in-game currency (that you can aquieres without spending money) into skins. And no the argument “but you can buy skins with $$” is not valid, since you can also buy gold with $$ and gamba on other game mechanics such as Gems fuse or in that case Gamba Frog.

you can reverce and say the same thing, if ppl swipe gold for toad thats the same ting u said for yoz’ jar

but if i use my hard earned gold to buy a skin, then i did what you said about toad

and yes i know someone has to buy the skin first. but the skins first job is make toons pretty, you dont swipe skins to yoz jar them.

and the blue crystals for the jar can also be earned ingame gold.

ye ye i know someone has to buy the RC’s

BUT a game like fifa can bypass the law whit there ‘‘lootbox’’ packs in netherlands and belgien
as all the rewards from packs can be bought by irl mony currency (rc) and the ingame earned currency (gold)

only difference whit lost ark is once an item is bought only gold can be used to get it. where some other games puplished in netherlands, you still can buy the lootbox rewark for swiped currency

so saying outright netherlands is the reason for the removel of yos jar is wrongly.
as per defenition on netherlands lootbox legaslation its in gray area

and the reason is once mony is used for the premium currency it cant be turned into money again, making the items have a open marked value. but instead an ingame marked,
that was ea’s defence for fifa and won whit

and that same apply’s to our lovely yoz jar,

but the jar is meant to cut down on ingame skins to a bloated marked, or if you have bound skin that you are tired of have, one of the biggest outcry in the west about the jar was, we had no skins in the game only a few was released, and that would ruin the marked for skins at that said point and inlfate all current tradeable skins

summoner was in the beta and was planned to be launched at the start of the game but got replaced by sorc. Artist was never playable on NA.
