The only honing changes left to be added into the game are the global honing buffs to t1, t2. These didn’t get added to KR until brelshaza was released. It will be the same for our region.
There’s no evidence to suggest we will get it at the same time. The honing buff was introduced because the game was dying in their region, nothing more, nothing less.
Considering our version of the game hasn’t even closely followed the path of JP/RU there’s no reason to suggest why we would receive things in any different time frame than the region our version is actually copying
Yes and considering our version isn’t dying thanks to artificial bot inflation of concurrent, we have no real time line of when our save face honing buffs will be given, as it was in Kr.
Less than 10% of the current playerbase is bots, idk what this comment is but you’re on something for sure.
The fact you think the current numbers are only 10% says you either don’t actually play or you’re more casual.

No I’m just not one of the delusional people that somehow think there are over 30k bots in the game with 250k concurrent players, bots haven’t surged since the initial ban wave when queues times on NAW went out of control. Feel free to comment if that happens again
I guess the only way to get it through to people that over 50% is still bots is for queues to return, unfortunate.

There is something wrong with you if you think half the concurrent playerbase is bots considering there’s barely any of them running around anymore, what a funny guy
Enlighten me by heading to early game zones, Vern, and punika chaos gates . I’m not sure what else to tell you.
Bots don’t need to spend much time roaming and questing now, they spam una gold for rmt anyway.
Idk why you guys are so worried 1415 hyper express coming soon just wait.
Nobody cares, plus if you are from NA then your opinion doesn’t matter
Can someone tell me what these honing buffs are? And until what ilvl are they available.
Shout out to all the gatekeeping tribalism in this thread… who cares for the players who wanna do the content, it isn’t fair to us because we already got there. Imagine wanting better for a game dummies
They buff the success rate and give you +2 lvls per gear piece in t1 and t2 from 1-12. You also get increased chance in t3 until a certain point (believe it’s 1415 and it really helps counteract the 1340-1370 deadzone)
Oh thatd be nice, thanks for your response . Last month it cost me more to get from 1340 to 1370 than 1415-1445 (which shouldn’t be the case honestly). Also T1 and T2 are pretty much outdated and useless content I don’t see why new players have to go through all that grind.
Early t3 is such a better experience than t1 and t2… there’s a few good things there but overall feels like a slog. I’m sure that makes it rough for the new players who wish to play with others who are far in t3
Jesse wtf are you saying. OFC Anyone would rather to stick to BDO or FF if you do not incentivize them to stick to this game. Pull your head out of your ego hole and stop being a resource hoarder to justify your addiction.
I don’t think ppl realize that if you don’t fast forward new players to legion raids (One of the few things that are actually fun) the game is gonna stagnate and decline because anything below tier 3 is so fucking dull.
Ffs its already been seen and done in korea.They boost you to tier 3 asap for this very same reason.They know its dead content there.
And as someone who’s at 1485 GS with multiple 1415 alts I couldn’t give two shits if other peeps get a free ride to 1415.More stuff in the market if anything.

There is literally no reason for them to not give us the honing changes, 1370 is Argos P1 which isn’t even end game now, T1 and T2 are literally worthless, don’t even mention them being places where people learn the game, how many people have you encountered in T3 that don’t know basic mechs, they’re literally a block stopping people and putting them off from getting to end game because of pointless rng, people saying ‘maybe this game isn’t for you’, are you stupid? Do you think sub 1370 content is representative of what this games endgame is about? no it isn’t.
I’m 1470 main, 6 alts in t3 and i still would love to see the global honing buffs, both so it would be easier to get alts to the point where they’re useful easier and so new players can experience a better introduction to the game without having to deal with horrid RNG just to get to the starting point.
