Nerfing Abyssea Exp?

Just called Maintenance on Valefor for abyssea-la thiene.

Think there gonna nerf expz?

A BLM friend of mine said yesterday they'd got to 5 hours and still onry 370/kill. Do we know yet whether there set up was bad//unlucky? Or are SEnix really killing the only good thing they've made in ages?? D:

too many threads on soo many forums...

update was for:

bugger all to do with Abyssea :)

[edit] that was for yesterdays.. didnt know there was one in an hour sorry im at work (in body only).

it's likely they just broke something on the one zone it happens. meh

Yes they changed something on Exp system. You have to kill first a lot of mobs before they give exp/cruor. After they repop they start to give exp/cruor.

Thats what i saw yesterday in Abyssea. We fought Lizards.

Is this for yesterdays maintenance, or the one that is starting in an hour?

Does it not appear stupid to you to ask if they're nerfing abyssea exp when there is maintenance on only one of the three zones?

Seeing dozens of these abyssea threads everytime some form of maintenance is called is getting old.

No it doesnt seem stupid, as they may be doing one zone at a time. So, no it doesn't.

Yeah, that doesn't sound like a stupid theory at all.

Glad you agree.

lol. i told you what they changed and no one recognised it? Hmmm...

its more likely they broken something in the zone or "flushing" it rather than nerfing it.

they wouldnt do it zone by zone.. because it'd make the other zones more populated thus causing their servers to have to cope with mroe people in a certain zone so wouldnt make good business/game sense to do such a thing.


"HAI lets close one zone nerf the exp so everyone goes to antoher zone with high exp's until we close them down" - i know SE are dumb.. but pretty much try break their own server.. i doubt


heavendragon ... ive seen that before on lizards where u get from 0, 7 etc exp on them til repops.. dnt know how that works but no one else i know has seen that issue change since any updates

Sorry heaven, but i know there are a few mobs liek that that were already that way, so im not sure thats the case,

That is not a change, it has always been this way.

No it wasnt. Made a run last week to in same area and we started with first mob and got exp/cruor

yes it has! lol ive been on puks (as one example) straight away giving 0 exp about 5 times then got EXP.. ive also done puks where i got EXP straight away.


its just game mechanics..

3 people all from different servers say its always been like that ..

Always has been like that, people needs to stop freaking the *** out over every little maintenance and crying over something they are not going to nerf in anyway, they've already said they made it for the purpose of having fun.

We don't need a new topic every god damn time there is a emergency maintenance or a zone maintenance "OMG NERF NERF NERF DERP DERP DERP"


As I type this, there is zone maintenance on la-theine abyssea.

Yes, Yes it was.

When abyssea first came out almost every mob was DC~T to 75, Every Maint. Resets mob levels, you just never noticed it because by the time you even knew Abyssea existed exp parties had been raping mobs so that just about all of them have Respawned in the IT to 80 area.

The mobs in Abyssea get stronger as they are defeated and respawn.

If Abyssea was going to be nerfed it would have been done by now, whens the last time something GOOD happened to this game that wasn't IMMEDIATELY Nerfed if it wasn't intended?

Rest assured if they wanted to nerf Abyssea exp, it'd be a Server-wide Maint, booting us from the game for at least 5 hours just to add insult to injury.

Edit: Also to your original post, you won't get a single exp over i think 350(?) Without finding treasures chests that Enhance "GOLD" light or "EBON" light, as those two raise exp values over the soft cap, nothing else does.

(Ebon increases all light a small emount)

Ok, not bothering to read past like the third post or whichever quoted the update notes.

Abyssea XP has not been gimped. After maintenance the mobs reset. This means the mobs must be killed again for them to become IT and give good XP.

Give it time, folks. Today - or tomorrow at the latest - you'll be getting your uber XP chains again.

Yeh.. ive always gotten EXP from every mob, even the first ones. =/ Ive never heard anyone say you dont get exp/crour for the first bunch...

I always find it funny how paranoid people get! "Oh ***! Maintenance! They're gonna screw us over somehow!"

Yup.

I was in with a group of 5 and we got exp/cruor off every kill starting with the 1st, that was before yesterdays update.

deja vu...

think this thread is going in circles

its obvious everyone in this thread fights there own abyssea mobs and other ppl on the server that operate in different time zones dont exist

thus the ability to get exp on first mob they kill

problem solved

I just complain out of fake peccismism.. >.>;; I haven't gotten to party in abyssea yet. I bought it last week and have been too busy with work to play. I just want an uber party. ;_____;

Exp isnt broken at all...

You need to drop Red chests with Golden light inside in order to boost your exp...


Did it immediatly after the maint? the mobs was prolly DC when you fought them...and this is why they dint gave any exp.

Anyway, just got out of an abyssea party, was BRD73 when entered, now im BRD75 almost 76, capped exp at 550 as lvl75 >.> so no probs at all.

EDIT: dont know why first quote dint worked, just erased it :p

If you are a lower level job, you will not get exp/cruor for many kills.

Were you on a lower job Heaven? If so, that would explain it.

Not really, you wont get exp if you're lv ~35...which would be a surprise :D but if he was with ls mate leeching^^

some people are also HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE in the form that if you actually scroll the freak up you will see that you got exp even if it was like 2 at start. The exp seem to show way earlier then the chat log shows the mob being defeated. scroll up and look i am sure your *** got the exp and you just didn't notice the ***.
