Why I finally quit (again) Trickster Online and why I’ll probably be back… eventually

Welp, after finally getting myself a Jen set (and best of all, a freaking PET, yeah, JEN PET YEAH) and getting four Jen sprints (froze my lion during the time period the quest was up and defrosted my very special champion), I thought with a sprint I’d finally play Trickster forever and ever and be in love with it and cherish it forever. Well, it didn’t really end like that.
Powerleveling.
Yeah, that’s right. I’m stinking fed up with POWERLEVELING. Let me introduce you to the vicious cycle I’d rather stay the hell out of.
- Noob joins Trickster Online, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, ready to start their adventure as a furry blossoming trickster
- Noob gets to around level 60-65 from the revamped Season 2 areas, pretty fly questing
- Noob realizes no one does shit past this level and just pays for powerlevels
- To make money, noob sells Myshop at an inflated rate of like 10-11mil/1k Myshop points
- Noob spends galder earned on powerlevels
- Noob gets 3rd job and buys more to get to like, level 170+
- Noob has no idea how to play the goddamn game
- Noob perpetuates powerleveling cycle and offers it themselves
This is pretty much how TO is working at the moment. Noobs either complain how hard it is to level but a lot are assimilating into the system. Many don’t understand the basic dogmas of Trickster, like OHKOs are your best friends and AoEs are lovely. Some don’t even understand the prevalence of myshop (those that complain about how this game sucks because they can’t afford to be powerleveled).
Tricked (ha ha) out my bunny before I quit. I’ll come back eventually and finish her. I mean, last I checked I (think) she had like 12k AP (too lazy to check).
If Trickster finishes Season 2 and drop rates magically increase at Swamp and up, I might come back eventually and level my cat/sheep (sheep is probably more priority since she’s under 170), but until then, bye Trickster. I’m just tired of having to buy myshop to make money to get powerleveled and if I were smart, I’d get my sheep powerleveled so SHE can powerlevel and I can make money but… with my school schedule I can’t afford to powerlevel someone for three hours so… yeah…

I stopped playing this game because I’m sick of the too much myshop. I cannot decide on an HV or AP cat. I’ve already added everything to HV which everyone said to do a few years ago. And now everyone tells me HV cats are awful. And then I was annoyed having to use skills for every attack, so I added a bit to AP. But all the legendary sets are way too expensive in game. The soki set I last remember was over a billion galders. And NO ONE adds HV to it. And to get a decent compounded Tenter Lion Tail Spear is too expensive too.
I’m so annoyed at this game. I loved it a lot in the beginning where nothing was myshop. I’m sick of everyone getting extremely good accessories and extra items from myshop while ingame, the pets are shitty, MOST of the weapons (excluding legendaries) are shitty, and the accessories can NEVER measure up to the character box set items.
For every year that the Jen boxes were out, I spent $50. And I think they’ve been out for about three years? Not sure. I spent $50+ every year to try to get the pet so I can get the permanent sprint, but it failed every time. I ALWAYS end up getting a bunch of earmuffs (helmet), the weapon, and the shield. This is one of the cutest but most expensive mmorpg I’ve EVER played.
And now to hear the community is such a nuisance, I don’t even want to go back. Ntreev or whatever it’s called now, needs to just give the game up. Everything costs money because they don’t have enough players. Well I wonder why no one plays? The only good thing is that it seems to work with Windows 7 now without a gameguard fix.
