If any of us that bought a debo of any kind this year had instead not until the prices crashed this last month we would all be further ahead than had we attempt to play the game.
For those of us that are veterans to the game since release, but had not (for whatever reason) decided to cap our gear. You deleted our entire year of gameplay.
That's what this update did to us.
Please don't ever do this again.
Your wild flip-flopping on our expected window to "get things done" made us all entirely hesitant to go ahead with getting debos completed when we could have or simply you eraddicated our income by hundreds of billions by causing the prices to go wild with your erratic behavior. Now we are looking at the entire year largely being for absolutely nothing. Instead of getting out of the grind for a period we're being forced to what? Instead of getting pen debos x5 we're expected to get them x10 because it's nearly certain this grind will be pen debo twice to get from pen to nov if we didn't mysteriously buy the market clean of them instead of playing the game with some intelligence and consideration for a multiple-month window we usually have to make decisions. Not hours.
Please don't ever do this again.
All of you are doing is say "grind the accessory twice". Even if the idea long term is good, for any of us playing this year we have lost everything. Not because we didn't make gains, but because we'd never have made any of the choices we did if we know you'd make the worst in slot accessory (debo earring) best in slot over night. With no time to adapt or acquire. Then on top of that demand us to do the debo rings twice just because we didn't predict you'd lengthen the enhancement process twice over.
Unless this is a very cheap enhancement process this is the loss of our entire year of gameplay.
You've demoralized so many people...
Sure, we can adapt. But who cares? A year is gone. It was a total waste of time and energy. For what? We're even losing the ability to keep the ap bonus AND you are charging us to change out are 5 billion silver, FIVE BILLION SILVER, per accessory for each cup we have to forcibly remove to receive the NOV or be stuck with our PENS? That's because you're saying we have to grind forest fury on top of all this when the drop rate for 10 is less than 1 an hour and we need 60? You'd be lucky to get 1 forest fury a day with these drop rates. That's on top of the Sealed Magical Black Crystals, 2 billion silver per extraction... so 6x2 = 12 billion silver just to "get ready" for your rushing us these last two months to this complete finale of a catastrophy.
Just how much do you expect us to grind in last two months?
This is insane, unfair, and unreasonable in the extreme.
Just... why...
bro, it was all planned. PA obv planned to drip feed debos for longer but stuff didnt play out. Now they are rolling out stuff ahead of the schedule to appease the players.
What does it matter how much you grind when you get a better item for free?

Pretty much. I bought the first of my four pen debos maybe four months before the crash and my last maybe a month before` all at 300 bils of course.
Now for those who wonder... how did you get all that money this quickly, well i'd been saving my money forever hoping one day they would start selling (i dont enhance). They did, i put POs, and in no time went from a trillion in silver to under a 100 bils. But then i now had a lot of old pen accs to sell now that i had replaced them with debos so it didnt take me too long to get up to 300 bils again, bought the last of my current four pen debos. And THEN the market crashed.
I counted approximately, I lost easily 500 bils. I could have waited four months and id be 500 bils richer right now. That's like 9 months of income for me i think.
So yeah, 2024 was my worst year in bdo so far.
Now yes, i know, it's an mmorpg, at some point new ger will always be released and your current gear will lose value. But usually it happens after a few years. Take blackstar weapons, theyre going back up now, but at their recent lowerst they were like a 100 bils cheaper than when i bought them. But i bought those a few years ago, that extra moneyy i paid then, basically 300 bils, well that bought me a few years of higher AP to do harder content, that's fine. The problem with Debo is the crash happened abruptedly. So i feel like a huge chump because i didnt need the extra AP for those four months, i'd hae been fine waiting for the crash. If id known it was around the corrner.
The new Karazad is an attempt to undo the precision J Hammer mistake. Once TET and PEN Debos are tide to trading them for the new accessories, folks won't bother using those hammers to enhance unless they're only wanting to use them up to sell ehnaced Debos, but they wont sell as many as PEN because not many people have 200B of silver lying around, and TET is not as lucrative when those hammers are about 30B.
END GAME gear doesnt make some people smart on economy.
f.. that players

Misusing the phrase "it was all planned" because it clearly wasn't.
I don't know how anybody could trust PA ever again after the years of failures and now complete devaluation of your work. I discovered today that they even locked off kr feedback board from non-kr accounts.
So everybody crying in the posts from BelleAtwell just got unlucky with their timing. It happens sometimes you get in at the right time sometimes at the wrong time.
