Grinding is hard in this game. I just bought a 1 day gold ticket and started to get real bored halfway through it despite being in a full party. I was thinking it would be nice if the ticket was for 1 hour long but gives 300% extra experience rather than giving 100% experience per hour for 3 hours...what you guys think? good idea? bad? Would even be more sweet for the 5 hour per day premium I thought also.

I would much prefer 500% exp for 1 hour. So i can get the ticket out the way and then job and pvp without worrying about loosing any time.

Sometimes it's really hard to finsh the 5 hours and i get really bored and end up wasting an hour or 2 while i pvp. So yeah, 500% for 1 hour would be nice.

That would actually make buying premium worth it, i mean who is going to sit at there computer and grind away 5 hours in a day every day of the premium ticket, maybe on the weekend but even then...500% for one hour> than 100% extra for 5 hour

1 hour > 5 hours

I dont understand who would choose 5 hours of grinding instead of 1 hour grinding, if the amount of gained exp is same. Beats me.

I don't know anyone who wouldn't want 500% for 1 hour over 100% for 5 hours.

Only problem would be collecting 500 fruits.

You could still grind after the hour is over in hopes of getting a Sun drop HAM. I think 1 hour would be ok...less bordom...less waste of prem time if you couldn't play for a day. More time to socialize with friends/guildmates...whether it be cape/guild/fort wars...or just trade runs... Possibly less players tempted to bot as well because they are not forced to play for 5 hours a day everyday for 28 days just because they don't wanna waste prem time...

This is a great idea, but Joymax wont implement it on the count of they don't care what we say or want unless it involves giving them even more, the closest thing you could possibly get which is next to remotely extreme is yet ANOTHER premium with the same benefits as Prem+ but with the 500% deal but it'll be even more expensive

Consumerwise, it's the best option.

Joymaxwise, it wouldn't be an option. Basically the longer you take to reach the cap, means the more money you would spend on buying silk. If 1h = 5h, then everyone would be fully using the 1h, however if it's 5h, not many people might be able to finish the 5h, hence you take longer to reach cap.

Nice idea, but for sure it won't be implemented.

Joymax is basically making you guys pay them for you to work 5 hours.

you know how ksro is getting the option to pause their premium tickets in the next update, well... couldnt you just go normaly untill the last day of premium. then pause it, and never unpause it. 100% chance to log in for as long as you play FTW?

_Shinigami_ · **Joined:** May 2007 **Posts:** 2191 **Location:**

honestly, who grinds for 5hours straight?
you'd have to be a roBOT in order to do that :roll:

you know you dont have to grind all of the exp time in a row right>? you can grind for 2 hours, pvp, mabey take a break. take a nap, come back 6hours later and finish the other 3hours.

SwordCloud · **Posted:** Tue Mar 10, 2009 6:40 am

You can't finish the quest premium + in 1 hours per day(not even 1 i think...),
it's hard to finish the 3 quest with normal premium so..

With 500% in an hour you'd be 5x more poor. But it's still good for those who can't afford grinding 5 hours.

right but what i said was if you paused it on the last day, the gt time would never end. therefore your premium ticket would never end and you could log on with no problems for ever.

Make it one quest for 30,000. Problem sorted. Though that means you have 28 hours to collect 500 which could be a problem.

It doesn't pause how long the card last. It only pauses the gt from being used. After 48 hours the gt would be gone.

You can log into Ksro anytime anyway so why would you want to stop the premium? =D

They stop it for the exp/sp boost time, so they can take a break from grinding and Pvp, job and such.

The premium in ksro is usefull.... and 500% boost in 1 hour would be very well. But you need to have a good party from the beginning of the 1 hour ticket because otherwise you will loose many min at searching good spot o/s..

The 5 Hours is kinda Annoying. I don't think I'll buy another one. I don't even use up all my time everyday.

Depends what build. On my rogue I use to get around 120 fruits per day. I finish 3 times quest in 12-13days. Now on bower I get around 80 fruits per day, diference is that rogue kill mobs 1 hit and bower 2 hits.
