I was thinking of quitting before, and now the thought is coming back to me why should I keep paying a sub if all I do is garden, pet train, and pvp? Everything is free except for pvp, which I could do practice.
-Solstice64 P.S. Now watch KI take out practice pvp to keep people paying.
What I'm curious about is what you people did BEFORE they added mega snacks as a drop??? There are alternative ways of obtaining mega snacks in game besides farming a boss for them. And so what if you don't garden, there are even snacks out there that will give around 12 points per game and that's without the pet even "liking" the snack.
Cry me a river here. Either pay for the snacks, search for what your pet "likes/loves", garden, craft snacks, continue farming, or get over it.
Geez, if taking mega snacks away from a boss drop is cause for some people to threaten to quit then there is probably more going on here than meets the eye. It sounds to me like a child saying if you don't give me what I want then I'm going to pitch a fit and kick and scream till you give in.
I pay for my sub each month (4 at one point, currently paying for 2). I garden the FREE prickly bear cactus plants on ALL 6 of my wizards. When I have a little extra to buy crowns I purchase a few evil magma peas for the larger snacks. And occasionally when a friend needs help or I need the gold, I run waterworks. Guess what, I have had over 90 mega snacks in the shared bank at one time and I use them wisely. None of which I paid for other than the peas.
Other than the monthly sub, you don't have to purchase anything to play the game or to even enjoy it. It's just the little extras are an added bonus. Obtaining mega snacks from continuously running a dungeon was another bonus they gave us. I can't say I was overjoyed when I found out they were removed and then put back in with a lower drop rate but I never got so upset that I thought about quitting the game.
Either you enjoy spending time doing some of the other features in this game or you don't. But please stop with all the threatening over quitting the game. Frankly I think it's a childish response and no wonder they haven't "officially" responded to it. They have already addressed the outcry from the public by putting them back in as a drop but with a lower rate. What more do you think needs to be done here?
1. You call us childish was it not Ki who struck the 1st childish blow.
2. What did we do before Mega Snacks well most probably were still Leveling there wizard. We are talking bout not alot to do with our legendaries now.
3.You Say cry me a River either Pay search likes/loves. well anyone who has subscription does pay. If subscription only covers access to game areas in this advertised free to play online MMO which is an untrue statement unto itself. Game better classified as Subscription/micropay all areas are not available free. So since we pay a subscription for game access why have drops at all make all items crowns only. Oh your saying it's through the goodness of there heart that there are drops and we should just be happy with indiscriminate changes not like our subscription pays there Salaries.
Pet likes/loves on food only adds: Like +1 on power, Love +2 on Power.
Gardening: Yes can get Mega Snack at Elder off crown plants and a chance to get one of some Gold ones at elder like Maelstrom Snap Dragons. But thats the rub harvest Time 10-12 hours on some more on others and no reward til Elder.
4. All games have drops in them with out them its just scenery. KI is so far only Game Company that Punishes It's players for their own Programming Incompetence.
5. But do Tell me without drops such as these What is to inspire someone to continue paying there salary. In the real world an employee/contractor acting this way i would just fire.
6. New Content: always accessible by lower levels why? Nothing strictly for legendaries, i dont mean just a tower I mean a whole Area. There is an abundance of content for lower levels why give them access to a new area released make them level up to gain access to see it, there is so much xp and quests for lower out there now its not funny KI spend the time writing the new content why not make people with lower level wizards work to see it instead of giving them a free pass. Focus on a release to keep the people that have been playing this game and paying there salaries for the last couple of years a reason too continue to do so.
Just a Thought.
Oh but by no means let what we say disrupt you from becoming a true Socialist and Towing the Parties line !!
darthjt- the Luska glitch was a way people found to make him re-spawn without fighting the first battles. I don't know if you could do it more than once. From my understanding of how it was done, it is not much different than the Gardening exploit you mentioned. It fit the definition of an exploit.

In the gardening exploit, all you had to do, was plant in the air, and you could just continually harvest once this plant reached elder... It would never disappear... You did not have to do anything, except press x...
Now, with Luska, you had to do, what you have always had to do... You have to defeat luska... not press x to get his drops, not just keep getting his drops, you have to do, what needs to be done to get his drops, you need to defeat him...
The main problem is the response we have been getting, and the lack of any explanation... Nobody is banned, yet, everyone is punished, yet, we will give them back, but yet we wont, because we will make the drop rate so low, you be lucky if you get hit by lightning a zillion times before you get one...
Yeah, this is so much better... And to take the one away from sly and make that one dropped too... Come on... You don't think they went too far?
I am like a lot of people on this matter, confused!
I understand KI is out to make money, however, would KI not be losing money if their players, who are Legends, don't have anything to do, so they start cancelling their subscriptions?
The drop rate is so low now in the Waterworks, that out of 4 people, going all the way through, each and every time, only 1 or 2 mega snacks are awarded, out of 4 people... Yeah, that definitely means, waterworks is a waste of time!
I can also understand, that KI is upset that people used a glitch to keep farming Luska.
Yet, they did not listen to anyone!
Darthjt said it best, take the mega snacks from Luska and let Sylster drop 2 mega snacks! That way, people have to complete the dungeon in order to get the full reward!
This could also be done with Tower of the Helephant. Now, if only KI would listen!

To me the snacks drop just like any other Crown items. It just doesn't bug me. I garden and have saved up lots of 5-9 rank snacks. I also respond to everybody being effected differently. It was a common happening when I was growing up. It happened in school and at home. So for me it is just normal. I guess I don't really expect explanations either. Here again my upbringing. LOL
I used to be much more serious about the game. Then I realized it is a fun escape for me. So I just roll with it. That and real life has things happening that have just taken all the fight out of me. The game is my refuge. I appreciate having fun with no worries.
I certainly do understand peoples frustration. I do read and think about what you say. This one we won't agree on. Megan
I already quit but my account is good through March next year. And I'll probably renew when they open up the cap levels so that I have something to work for - right now there is no reason for me to complete CL or WT - the new spells don't do it for me or the new pet.
