in other word HELL NOO
and luck, it's now going to take time and a fortune in materials. I'm beginning to think just buying a pen is going to take less time starting from 0 silver than acquiring all the materials, and boss battles with rng drops. Oh well, nothing is ever easy.
does not equal relevance.
I'm playing for few years and have 293k AP and 370DP. I'm not a heavy grinder, and I also didn't have that much luck with enhancing.
Stop asking for free stuff and actually invest some of your time if you want to advance in this game.
even bother starting the quest. No point in doing it at all.
yourself with plenty of them. I didn't have the yellow BMC, so I... bought them! Of course everything is sold out now, but it will fix itself soon enough, and it takes a few weeklies before you can craft a PEN anyway.
The "fortune in materials" for these PENs is actually much less than the fortune of materials you need for a PEN on average the other way.
enough and I'm almost full tet and missing 2b for a dream horse now =]
I think you need to get gud :P
this happened. You should be over 300 AP and not even looking at this page. Youre just bad at BDO. Try maybe only doing lifestyles for fun.
and crying.
I start from 0 (new account). I played only on season servers for 3 months. Now i already got 3 Free pen. Its not impossible. Farm in Sulfur: almost every 10-20 mins drop yellow grade crystal, very good scroll drops.
Btw after 5 years you played do you have not any pen? O.o How?! Imposibble.
reading comprehension mistakes)
______________________
it seems like you forgot the 220x Oquilla Piece of the Old Moon to obtain 1x Oquilla Sky Crystal (that's 11bil silver) or 580x Oquilla Piece of the Old Moon to obtain 1x Oquilla Earth
Crystal (that's 29bil silver) – depending on what kind of gear you want to upgrade to lvl 5.
silverwise it's worth for AP gear but not for DP gear –buying off the market is cheaper but who knows how long there will be still PENs normally enhanced and sold.
feel free to correct me, if i made any mistakes. :)
