Walk of the no Coin drops??? formerly Walk of echoes

[Seriha]

Nice story telling... on the contrary, the real story is quite different. Good try bud.

I'm reminded of the people who went 1/1 on the Kraken Club BC and decide to say it's not rare.

You got lucky, that's it.

Now, join the others trying 8, 9, 10, and 11, do 30+ runs, and see what the real story is. Your results are not typical nor do we have any clue if you'd been sitting on that coin pile pre-patch.

Seems like, want coins? do 1-7. Want new items spells? do 8-11.

[Zagen]

It's not supposed to take less time, it's supposed to be easier - which it is.
Think OAT mid-damage magian path vs. OA2-4 path.

Except it isn't easier since you can solo many Emps...
Briareus - NIN/DNC
Sobek - SMN
Congrats you just soloed Sword/Katana to 85 without brews.

Fistule - BST
Bukhis - SMN
Congrats you just soloed Axe/Club/Bow

Carabosse - NIN/DNC
Cirein-croin - SCH, BLM, RDM take your pick
Congrats you just soloed Great Katana/Great Sword/Gun

And again if no one is doing WoE you get 0 coins meaning its not easier but impossible.

Edit: I'm not advocating going the solo route for Emps, just pointing out that these can be soloed.

And some other people i know got 2 pouches and 2 coins in one chest. Sadly, they don't have any screenshot to please your eyes.

And as long as people keep doing WoE, you can go in, autoattack for 2 minutes, die, heal yourself, AFK, and then come back for a chest when the other 30 people inside clear it for you.

Yeah WOE is tons easier. It's made for "casuals(translation: complete idiots), so it's something anyone can do. Sure it takes longer, sure they're weaker, but that's intended. I like WOE's design now tbh.

[Babygyrl]

So i tried the new WoE today, and i actually Really like the new set up, my fear is though, whats going to happen to it if people lose interest and zones become unclearable because there isnt alot of people t odo it? and also the reward are kinda poo, but i guess they are better depending on how much you do?

I've done 30-40 runs now (@7000-11000exp per run) and I have gotten 28 coins total, at 3-8 of each kind. I have a couple LS mates who have been spamming as well, and among all of our combined wins, only one person got a single pouch.
You claim 80 runs/236 coins. Your coin/run ratio seems really lucky, even with that pouch. You sure some of those not from pre-update?

[Elexia]

Anyone who gets anything other than Ores of Glory and Logs of Ruin and Cloth of Advancement post update got lucky and/or didn't get them consistently. Period. End of discussion.

This just made my night. :]
I would like to thank Shiyo for this insightful comment. It is so considerate and accurate it really leaves nothing for us to do here (I am being a bit sarcastic if one does not notice).

But... you are entitled to your opinion, so I would not judge, and as for the topic itself, I don't really have anything new to say about the current state of Walk of Echoes as I have written those in the other WoE-threads.


Have fun all, and good luck!
