Are the kq blues removed?!

[l0rdplik]

Can anyone confirm they had kq blues disappear? If they're not gonna disappear then we should know so we can get back to our falling economy and start dealing with it.

i still have mine at the moment...
i think they won't delete them,but they won't drop anymore (in the glitched kq)
because some people bought eyes to enhance the blue weapons...

It would be nice to get an official statement.

Well that would really be extremely unfair and deceitful especially since they told everyone not to buy them.
I could have had a blue hammer with awesome stats for as little 2 gold.
That would essentially be punishing the people who try to play by the rules while rewarding those who don't.

So although it would be extremely unfair it wouldn't surprise me if that is what they do.

It would be nice indeed, because as cheap as they are now, I don't wanna spend that on items that are going to disappear.

In the last maintenance all they did was stop the Blues from dropping in KQ's. The maintenance was mainly focused on fixing some stability issues, and I would think that going through and removing all of those Blues on top of that would be too much to do in one Maintenance.

More than likely they will do it in the next maintenance, but that's just my guess. In the meantime, just wait for any announcements on the issue.

the blues may not have been removed, but i had several lvl 95 weapons that are no longer in my inventory.

so some weapons HAVE been removed.

[l0rdplik]

They did say they removed the 90+ weps. They just didn't specify about the 70 blues.

Hmm.... so the blues like the MD ring that used to drop in Slime KQ are fixed? Then those Blue rings that was drop from the KQ is it gonna disappear too? Or actually all these is just for the weapons and rings or rquips are not affected?

Had too much questions as the notice didnt tell too much and is leading some ppl to no-where... ?_?

The blues that they were referring to are weapons for level 50 and 70.
I don't know if there were any 50 blues that had dropped but there were a bunch of 70s.
Those are the blues that they are supposed to clean up.

I saw a blue lvl 50 fighter sheild yesterday but I dont think it was from a KQ the stats were too good for 50 to be from KQ anywho I bought a blue 2h yesterday and bought eyes for it and then it dawned on me...The blues were eliminated yet -.- So yeah I was as you can imagine mad so I sold it. One of my guildies said that they might not get rid of blues because it was mess up the economy of Fiesta so much there would be people quitting left and right because they bought eyes and stuff for them and then they were deleted. Thats where I stand on this debate.

Actually, my friend said that after that maintenance, she did a GM KQ and got a blue from the kq, so pretty sure they didn't do that unless she and another friend were just lucky.

Blue shields don't drop in KQ's from what I know, they only drop as regular items.

As far as the blue weapon removal, all I know was that the drop rate for them was fixed (although, it doesn't seem like that's true, I heard people were still getting them very frequently)... although nothing was mentioned about the blue weapons that did make it out into the 'real world' were removed.

I think the GM staff is still working on it.
