Dammit.

 

Finally lmao.

Can anyone explain what changes?

 

I just had a look at W330 and it looks like a lot of the hosts have already started dropping their prices - the lowest I saw was 15k. It's still slightly cheaper to use a host unless you have a quest cape, so I don't think they will become completely obsolete, but the update has certainly eliminated a majority of the need for nmz hosts/bots. Either way, this was a much-needed change.

Basically, you can now select your own bosses for an additional 20k (10k with quest cape) fee, instead of having to use a host.

So it's like 1K cheaper?
Meh, I'd rather use this new system
Edit: It's 16K btw.

Yeah I think hosts will be cheaper by like 5k but who's going to want to waste their time trying to get a host on a laggy world rather than spending 5k to easily do it yourself?

That's what I'm saying, also some kids actually waste your time by scamming 15k lol.

Article says 20K?

Still 2K+ cheaper going through hosts

Decent money sink + self host ftw, kinda expensive though.

I need to get my eyes checked :huh:

A great update imo

 

Since 90% of them were bots I'm happy with this. No need to make my own nmz host or play on 330.

Yup, especially if you wanna go with your friend, only way it could work is if you could find a non-bot host lol.

These accounts aren't completely worthless; self-hosting will save you 14-18k each time. Not to mention they nerfed the points upon entering a Rumble dream without all your quest bosses.

If you have 10 quest bosses, but only choose 5, you get 50% of the points you would normally get.

This is good for training - bad for points. This means host will still (slightly) remain in business.

kinda, its still cheaper to use hosts they are hosting for us for 15k and it costs more to make your own dream.
