Dusk Wrote:That's not really a proper analogy. If your Hermit suddenly has maxed Double Stab instead of Lucky Seven, you're screwed. Your gameplay experience changes dramatically because you've lost use of an important skill. Monster Book is entirely for collector's value. It doesn't change gameplay. It doesn't cost NX to reset your stats back. When you sign on to the whole "collect them all" thing, you're doing so with the knowledge that the cards are worthless in the first place. They're not $100 and $1 bills. They're a Charizard and a Rattata.No, it isn't different. That's the point here. A hermit with Double Stab can't play. They can't train like they wanted to or do anything else. And that's how I feel with a messed up monster book. I can't go hunt cards, if I do quests I risk messing up my book even more. Hell even if I go grind I get more cards and it might get messed up even further. I literally can't do anything right now without making it worse. Even if it is "Charizard and Rattata" Charizard is more rare than Rattata, and more valuable, and that's the point. You're saying "X is a part of Z and Y is a part of Z therefore X=Y" which is horrifically bad logic. Since my idea of gameplay IS collecting cards, it most certainly IS affecting my gameplay.
I can understand why those of you that actually care about Monster Book would be upset, but personally I'd love if my Skeles got reset to 1 and a couple of other cards got maxed. Another hour of 1.15x on monsters that I collect way too many cards of anyway. I've probably wasted 5-6 Skele cards a piece.
On a side note, I've only picked up an Eye of Time monster card and that didn't change anything in my book.
In my analogy I'm not acknowledging the existence of AP or SP resets. Assume they don't exist. Or don't, and say that Nexon tells you "lol go MTS up some NX and reset it yourself". That's the same as saying "GO HUNT YOUR CARDS AGAIN". I did it right, and Nexon messed up, and now I have to fix it? No, that's not right. Especially when it's IMPOSSIBLE to fix the cards they messed up like Lord Pirate. I spent all of last month making sure I had all 5 of the PQ bosses, and Nexon undid all that work in 5 minutes of "lol wut" glitches.
