Change?

Hello Candyplayers,
We staff are thinking of changing the rates to 100x EXP, 50x
Meso, 2xDrop.
If you think this is a good idea let us know your opinion.
We will also add rebirth if this idea is put into place.
Regards,
CandyStaff

Much too high EXP and Mesos.
there are plenty of high-rate servers where you can rebirth
several times a day, that may be a little more challenging at
100x, but still do-able, especially after you've done a few
rebirths already. I do think that our EXP rate is too low at the
moment, it gets kinda dull and boring, and there are already
nostalgia-type servers running 1x or 2x, the v0.83 community
really lacks a good mid-rate server. I would suggest something
in the 25-40x EXP range, this gives plenty of excitement without
giving levels too quickly and doing 200 levels in a day or two.
I know many players, especially those who frequent low-rate
servers are not a fan of rebirths, and to some extent I agree
with them, but I believe their perspective on rebirths has been
far too negatively effected by all these high-rate 800x or more
servers where you can rebirth in 5 minutes. Back 3-4 years ago I
was playing private servers when rebirths first hit the scene,
and the most successful of the RB servers used a low- to
mid-rate, where even a dedicated player could spend 3-4 months
getting his first 5 rebirths. In my experience, at about 35x it
take about 1 month for a dedicated player to get to lvl 200. My
other problem with rebirths, no matter how high or low the rates
are, once you get enough RB's you can lvl fast enough to RB too
quickly. My suggestion for this problem is to make something
along the lines of a quest, where you must aquire certain items
in order to rebirth, just as an example you could be required to
obtain an item from all major bosses and trade that for the
ability to RB, that would make RB difficult and slow you down
even if you rack up lots of RB's. Or you could require 20 fame,
or trophies or candy, or a combination of any of those things.
this would make the game much funner and challenging. If a
system like this could be developed, rebirths might become fun
for many of those players that have a bad perspective of the
feature.
Mesos are only worth the drop rate, if SCG cost 10m at 10x then
they'll cost 100m at 100x, and the higher your rate then you'll
have to come up with an exchange system where an item is valued
at 1b or 2b mesos, and everything gets messy. the only factor
Mesos rate plays is the difficulty of buying NPC items, for
example potions in GMS-type NPCs, and EoF, Crack, and Megaphone
in your custom NPC, the rate should be high enough that people
have enough to buy potions and other items, as well as spend
money trading with other people, but not so high as to bloat the
economy with excess mesos. I think the ideal rate for this
server would be 15x.
Drop rate, well since I've heard that 4th job has auto mastery
to lvl 30, 2x drop is ok, in most situations, especially if you
must aquire skill books, 3x would be the minimum, 4x also being
good, +5x being too high.
Good luck with the decision, I hope whatever you decide it makes
the server all the better.

just add a little more drop rate, maybe even candies for
scrolls, and add NX for mesos exchange
