Nubby here!

  As an introduction:
  
  [SPOILER="Spoiler"]So I started playing on a new character a few days ago, and I must say that I have had a blast since then
  
  I originally started playing in June on the East Server, but then when I had no access to games for weeks I couldn't play.
  
  Then I found out a new-friend of mine played on West, so they helped me level a bit - then it became even better when my close friend also played on West, so now I'm almost Level 30 and having fun the whole time. :onionru:
  
  Most of you may or may not already know me from other sections, so I have never almost-literally posted here until yesterday or so.
  
  
  [/SPOILER]
  
  Now going on to the thread-
  
  There are a few things I would like to ask, since I have only met a few people on the game:
  
  1. If I buy the permanent Storage Expansion Ticket, will it unlock 1 or all of the paid-storage chests?
  
  2. It seems, from reading from the wiki then testing it out, that each time I do a dungeon run the AP Reward reduces by 5 until it reaches 0. Does that mean that if I supposedly grinded all of the dungeons until they reached 0 AP, the only runs that will net any AP will be Raids (with their 10 AP) and the Daily Dungeons (all dungeons, including Raids)?
  
  That way, will my AP gain eventually grind to a steady halt (excluding the wonderful magic of Meditation - I have plenty of time)?
  
  3. When do I get the 3rd free Storage Chest, without saying any spoilers (such as, estimate the Level)?
  
  4. How exactly do Dyes work - are they purely random, and there is a chance that they don't give any color at all?
  (I'm clueless on them, and I never plan on dyeing, but I am curious.)
  
  5. How much gold is considered "rich", player and NPC-wise?
  
  As in, once I obtain the higher-leveled gear, can I have an estimate on repairs - and for players, I mean the Marketplace (I don't plan on buying every single ingredient either)?
  
  A new-friend told me that for players, it would be around 65 million, which isn't hard to believe.
  
  6. Is the only difference between Blessed Magic Powder and Magic Powder the Success Rate of enchanting?
  
  6.5: How do you like this I made?
  [SPOILER="Spoiler"](alright, that isn't a serious question, but I'm only curious :XD:)[/SPOILER]
  
  This is what I can think fo right now, but I'm absolutely sure that I'll remember to or add more! :sing:

  I don´t know most of these, but I´ll try to answer the best I can~
  
  

  
  1. If I buy the permanent Storage Expansion Ticket, will it unlock 1 or all of the paid-storage chests?

  
  
  I´m not sure, but I assume it´s for only one of them.
  
  

  
  3. When do I get the 3rd free Storage Chest, without saying any spoilers (such as, estimate the Level)?

  
  
  around level 58.
  
  

  
  6.5: How do you like this I made?

  
  
  You did fine job :thumb:
  
  Others I can´t tell you for sure, I´m still pretty new myself.

  This is what I can think fo right now, but I'm absolutely sure that I'll remember to or add more! :sing:

  
  
  1: Just one. :(
  2:Most upper-tier raids go as low at 20 AP, I believe. And I think boats after Ainle stop at 10 AP per run. Some people grind Nightmare at the Ruins for AP since it's the lowest level/easiest mission for 20 AP.
  3: Level 56.
  4:It's much like the dye system in Mabinogi, only you get 6 options instead of just 5. And you can just right click the dye again if you don't like the palette you were given to choose colors from instead of logging off and then back on.
  5:I mean, if you're just looking at repairs and maintaining other things such as potions and feathers and stuff, 1m will suffice.
  6:I think the main difference is that blessed powder is used for making better elixirs for enchanting, and that reg powders can be made into blessed powders.
  6.5: That's from the ep10 trailer, so they probably just ripped the gif straight from the video and added text. :)
  
  Happy playing!

  Thank you :skip:
  
  Which server are you on?
  It would be nice to have more people to play with, too.

  Au :pick:
  
  Well hey, that's not so bad considering Mabinogi's space - that's only ~$66 for the fullest at 288 stacks :awesome:

  So how many times can you reset a dye - is it indefinite thus relying on how patient one is?

  That's how I made it, from a video :XD:
  
  Making .gifs, and it's funner more me to learn how to make free .gifs myself rather than use a "free" site which puts an obnoxious watermark on it - and with limits on which I can make.
  
  
  
  Thank you both for the information, I'll try to remember what else I wanted to ask :kiss:
• Conor wrote on 2011-12-19 17:14
  Yes you can reset the palette infinitely, it's more dependent on how long you want to look for a suitable palette for good choices.
  
  And yeah, feel free to ask anything else :)

  So then, any dye = any color as long as I have the time.
  
  I might even buy one, if I ever have gold to burn outside of an Expertise :chin:

  Awesome :thumb:
  
  So I will add you now, and we could run sometime?[/SPOILER]
  
  
  Another question: I'm planning on not touching any sort of Enhancement on my equipment until I get to the last one I'll need, so is there any palce that drops Enhancement Stones more than any other dungeon, or is it all based on luck?
  
  Same with Wisps :what:
• Awsomesauce wrote on 2011-12-19 18:40
  Its all based on luck but you have a better chance of getting them from mini-wisp bosses and other wisp

  I mean, remember that it's a 1/6 chance that you'll get one color, so it's best to make sure the palette has as many colors as you'd prefer as you want.
  
  And there are different grade enhancement stones, so if you want the ones for the current end-game gear (empowered), you'll get them from breaking things in the rocheste boats, or cores in the rocheste boats (or boat 5+ on hero mode)

  I figured form Wisps, so is there any place that frequently has them, besides running something that has 1 Erg Pot near the beginning :what:

  On the dyes: I could sit there all day to get a color, but thank you for all of that :kiss:
  
  I knew about Empowered, so that is why I'm saving some Advanced Enhancement Stones I'm getting from drops.
  
  And by "breaking things in Rocheste boats", do you mean in the dungeons themselves?

  A mission called Two Moons is mostly about wisp but its a lvl 50 one

  Wisps to Two Moons as Gnolls to Decisive Battle? :chin:

  Oh no, I figured players say "boats" instead of "dungeons" since it is the main way to get there :what:
  
  Just my thought of going on the literal boat to smash items for gems was silly :thief:
  
  
  Asking again: A system message just appeared saying "(player name) has received [Maelstorm Babel +10]" - what exactly is this, a Gachapon of the sort?
• Yanm wrote on 2011-12-19 19:08
  For Empowered Enhancement stones, I would say the best places are Boat 7 and boat 8. For some reason, Boat 8 seems to have a high drop rate for them. . .and boat 7 monsters drop an item called Mana Reformer, which can be used to make Empowered Stones. Also, you're on West now correct? I have a Karok around level 38. You can add me if you want so we can party sometime, his IGN is xBrolyx. Also, what class are you? I'm going to go on a limb and say an Evie :D?
