This week, we had a talk with our Head of Development (HOD) to find out more about a couple of updates that are coming to Tree of Savior in future patches, including PvP improvements, drop rate system changes and balance tweaks. See here for the interview!

Thanks for the interview. It’s great hearing about IMC’s motivations and reasons behind the changes as well as the changes themselves. I’m glad to see more variety of content is on the way, and the timeline on the upcoming changes.

reserving spot from when I wake up xD
now am post camping…
or is it pre camping 
EDIT: after having 24h+ of not been able to play still cause my laptop blue screen and uninstalled the game leading to more problems…
We also considered mining, but we didn’t want to risk abusing anyone’s graphic cards…
#THANKS YOU 
Can we have free rank resets for balancing patch? k

probability-based system
we added â…› pieces of those cubes to the Grounds so that players can get items from them more frequently
I love a %based drop system. The current system made me not want to farm for anything… I also think some classes really need more balancing …ex. Cataphract… I think ToS is getting better…
I am also glad to read that they noticed that many maps are ignored!

Really happy to hear that fishing will continue to be improved. I was disappointed when I saw how basic it was and think that multiple locations / variety of items / some basic manual control is just what the feature needs.

Oh, if only the staff save 1 more question to ask new classes 
Making fishing spot not only in Klaipeda is a good thing actually, because it is also can affect the ignored maps.

… I hope there won’t be any car racing/tuning. Because there’s not even cars in TOS (except Kabba’s Merkabah 8D), it’d feel out of place.
BUT if you tell me we might actually have a carriage with maybe horses to race, it sounds fun x)
Or just let me use another player as a mount to race, okay ? Thank you.
Any plan on bringing a housing system ? ;__;
Or adding “Guild tuning” I guess ?
Yes, also… Please, make the costume from the fishing NPC available some day :3 It’s Tree Of Fashion after all 
“So what’s the new drop rate?” It’s not our policy to reveal the exact drop rates of each item
i don’t mind the change in drop system… all that matters really are the drop rates…
if there’s anything to go by and test a pure rng drop now is to farm Sage Wall recipe…
this recipe has a confirmed 0.01% pure rng drop rate… it’s waaay more rare than any highend 315 orange mats, which has a 0.2% rng+dpk drop rate…

it’s been 7-8 nights now of farming and still no recipe drop…

They don’t want to tell you the drop rates because they are skewed to make the game last longer. It’s the reason, -edited because of inaccuracy- I do apologize.
Also
~update~
Make a damn ptr server and let actual players test your new updates not just “internal testing” that is garbage.
Thanks for the interview staffs! It feels like the staffs answering a lot of questions that’s been lurking in the forum since few weeks ago. Especially about DPK to prob system.
About pardoner shops, i hope the change will not be too much. If you said that some pardoner shops are considered OP, it’s because of their efforts to become the best in the server, with all spr equipments and some of them even use the medals-timed equipments. Please consider that most of the pardoner shops are “normal”. If there’s something need to be changed it’s your medals-timed equipments.
They’re nerfing a lot of CCs in PvP enviroment (usually from mages) and a lot of immunity buffs (usually from clerics), read the posts in kTOS general thread.
About the shop, I don’t think that they are talking about normal items to increase SPR, they are talking about unexpected buff combinations to get a insane high SPR shop.

Finally the fish feature was posted by the devs on the forum !
can you add a Feature to Fishing that relate to Basecamp Squire ?
please Let fishing Be more than just food effect like a Dumpling. 
Those were stupid nerfs, they will retain their influence regardless. TBL ranking will be the same 90% Cleric-Wiz. 10% for swordsman and archers. Anyway im not in the mood to explain them 1 by 1 why. So if you think it will change the landscape of TBL might as well we bet on it? Ill bet 5 practoniums for clerics and wiz will retain their influence in TBL Composing 90% of TBL top 100. If youre confident and wanna bet we can discuss the details of how we can do this.
There is no hope for this game. The root problem is the balancing team itself. Theyre too stupid or intentionally making unbalance game. This is a given fact for 2 yrs. Those promises are just baits so players will still stay and play their game, but in reality they will just shift the balance into another Cleric or Wizard. They cant even properly assist their playerbase with their problems or fix bugs and yet we are expecting a balance PVP? Well, this unbalance fits the theme for TOS story, where clerics are the extension of Goddesses powers. It is only natural they would dominate.
Love how they support exploiters and bots.
Now bots can farm inside town, i mean sewer.
