Thread: Now it's more difficult to gain Money

Supposedly they increased the drop rate, but now there are fewer chances for it to drop each day so it will take longer to drop.

The money thing kills me. It's already hard to make money.

For finalmecia, the threshold is 63 battle. If you did less than 63 battle per day against her before, you will make more money now (once she is upgraded at lvl 260).
If you were a no life that wake up by night, you'll make less.
That's purely boss speaking. But with the addition of PvP in the mix, you should make more money than before, whatever your playstyle (casual, "normal" or no life).
Also, keep in mind they will add yet other features into the mix, such as leagues/ladders and clans battle, that will make you able to earn more money.

Today's release is only the 1st of 4 big releases that should unfold on the first trimester.

I got 0 money from PvP.

My first thought was that they made it worse, too. But it might work out okay after the bosses level up. For now, it is slower. I also agree that PvP is not a great source of game cash. I imagine new players are happy with those low level affection and boost item drops. For me, they just don't make enough difference and are worth so little when sold, that I only feel like I got a "win" if a little in-game cash drops. That hopefully improves with level too. I hadn't invested much in arena battles before now.

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I think my combativity refilled when I leveled up. Was this another undocumented new change? If so, then this gives you several extra boss battle tries a day, if not every other day, depending on your level up speed.

I think we get a refill on levels ending in "0". Maybe... Doesn't happen every time since I've leveled under the new system and didn't see a refill.

It would be interesting to see how much money we all have to earn back due to this change before we actually start making more money. It wouldn't be exact because the payouts were randomized in a range before.

It's several million I imagine. Once Finalmecia is maxed out, she isn't generating a ton more money than before. 26500 per battle.

With the reduction in the amount of times we can battle it would also be interesting to see the overall affect. Someone said 69 battles in the previous system. That seems a tad high.

Money from arena is negligible and barely worth mentioning.

There are now legendary gifts to be won during events as well. Also quest rewards from the arena. And who knows what changes are still coming.

This is good. I got 3 or 4 legendary affection items during the last event. That's worth 2-3 million.

Finalmecia pre-patch would drop (roughly) 17-22k per win. People with more time (and desire) to crunch the numbers than I have figured that if you battled her 63 times (out of a potential 72 battles per day) or less per day before the patch then when she reaches max level she will pay out more per day. Couple that with PvP, which gives three new battles every 30 minutes (approximately per win at level 190 which is not exactly "negligible and barely worth mentioning), and you'll find that the money actually goes up rather quickly. You just have to deal with a bit of reduction in the run up to the bosses max level.
