Player Survey PLEASE READ

[GMbluefire]

Hi everyone,

As you know, part of my job on the team is to promote DR so that we have more players to play with and also to facilitate communication between the GM team and the community. That is why I drafted this survey. We want to know your experiences and thoughts so that we can spend our time working on things that you want as players. It will also help us better understand your thoughts and needs.

Please take the time to fill out this survey. You may post your response here or email it to me at gmbluefire@dragonraja.eu if you want your answers to be private.

Thank you for your help!
Bluefire

Rating: 7
Explanation: I love my class, i really do. Thats the 7890th priest i make. I would make it again. PVE if boring as hell (i believe all classes are like that, since you must macro) and i can't do many things by myself like other classes do. PVP is quite funny if opponent is around your DualClass or lower. I just don't give a 10 because there are some points to adjust.


Rate character progression. Think of what you gain as you level up. Progression means levels, tactics, jobs, items, and dual class. Are you satisfied with how your character progresses?
Rating: 9
Explanation: One of best end game classes imho


Rate itemization. Itemization includes crafted items, legendary items, monster drops, and miscellaneous items such as potion boxes and ress pots.
Rating: 6
Explanation: Regarding Crafted items, i only depend on one group (Hardest). I would only mind about a Legend Robe. Monster drops and misc items are crap.


Rate crafting/jobs. Consider your experience crafting items. Consider your experience raising your job level.
Rating: 7
Explanation: I am giving this server a 7. If it was anyother server i would give a 3~4 because original job/rare system was awful... Its better now.


Rate the dual class system. Consider how you achieve dual class. Consider how you advance your dual class level. Consider what you gain at each dual class level. Consider the impact.
Rating: 9
Explanation: Thats the main thing for my class (although some classes dont really need DC4+)


How do you rate PVP activities that are organized by the game (such as castle war)? Do you enjoy the PVP activities? Are you able to participate in PVP activities?
Rating: 6
Explanation: Giving a 6 because the system itself rocks. But things dont happen the way it should. When there are many people online from different sides willing to kill eachother, this game rocks. But what really happens is: some guys just want get in, make sure they will gain max reward and logout. They dont really fight for it. Most of them just Farm (using friends accounts)

Rate your class. Consider things such as skills/spells, PVE experience with your class, PVP experience with your class, and anything you can think of.
Rating: 5/10
Explanation:
The game engine makes transition from ranged to melee really buggy.
The character can dissengage and engage in a endless loop during auto combat doing nothing.
For PvP many of the skills are not good.
Assassins have no CC comparable to other classes so enemies with ranged attacks can easily kite them.
The AoE attacks of assassins can easily be run out of, and the gravity is easily avoidable.
In the meanwhile enemies can chaincc you until death while you cant do anything.


Rate character progression. Think of what you gain as you level up. Progression means levels, tactics, jobs, items, and dual class. Are you satisfied with how your character progresses?
Rating: 2/10
Explanation:
As for most f2p gacha games, progressions slows down to snail mode when you hit higher levels, then it turns into and endless grind loop of daily quests.

Rate itemization. Itemization includes crafted items, legendary items, monster drops, and miscellaneous items such as potion boxes and ress pots.
Rating: 1/10
Explanation:
All rare items hidden behind RNG and P2W. Extremly hard to get enough tradable items to buy them if you dont P2W.


Rate crafting/jobs. Consider your experience crafting items. Consider your experience raising your job level.
Rating: 5/10
Explanation:
No crafting to be mentioned really

Rate the dual class system. Consider how you achieve dual class. Consider how you advance your dual class level. Consider what you gain at each dual class level. Consider the impact.
Rating: 2/10
Explanation:


How do you rate PVP activities that are organized by the game (such as castle war)? Do you enjoy the PVP activities? Are you able to participate in PVP activities?
Rating: 2/10
Explanation:
Snowmoon bg is extremly boring.
PvP is extremly unbalanced in Ranged classes favor with multiple cc moves and kiting being way to powerful.
Needs to be penalties for kiting somehow, maybe increase miss chance by 80% while moving.
Chain cc, turning you into a duck, then knocking you down, then using winter EX, then returning to turning you into a duck again...
There has to be a CC immunity system.
