Presses V in game and looks at all the upcoming events

Rich people have the worst logic ever.

look in the event info using the event tab in game. It tells you when the hot times are and what each one gives. Nexon does that to reward the people who want to play. Do you want the hot times to suck like back when you got an sp reset scroll and an unidentified love letter?

I like all this free stuff.
They posted about the hot time like a week ago, you should have seen it coming.

I like how you complain about one free class-specific book per account but not the AP and SP resets they have been handing out practically every week. Those have value too, even if they are unsellable.

No, I do not hate this Hot Time or any past ones.

Actually I do alright in the market. I've been back since Kaiser released and
I've made over 3b out of 500m. I also made over $500 on this game without spending
a penny. So really, I'm not a bad merchant. I've made a mistake, but I just don't like the
handouts that Nexon gives people. It kind of defies the purpose of saving money and merchanting
when they're going to give out free gear, like the Kaiser hats, which are very over powered if you
are a Kaiser, and give out books like Nova Warrior 30 and 20 to everyone. So pretty much if you
work hard and save your money you're only going to be a little superior to the people who can't even
speak English, and don't even know what they're doing because they recieve handouts just from logging in.[/quote]

Poor people have crap that can't even compare to what you buy. So stop denying poor people items.

So you aren't grateful for this? Wow. Just wow.

The only problem about hottime events is that ppl making a lot of different accounts and farm the free gifts! IMO xD

That's actually a horrible idea. If the books were impossible to get without an event handing them out, then sure, but there will always be more books added to the market and less people that need the books(either passed it, or just quit the class) so the price for the books will go down over time, not up.

@RockCaandy You made 3b out of 500m in the one week that kaiser has been out and yet you complain about how everyone getting [b]one[/b] random book messes up your money making? It's not like everyone is getting nova warrior left and right. I mean I got advanced tempest blades 20, which I won't need for another 25 levels on my kaiser.

Also how does the kaiser helmet affect you in the slightest? Is your sole profit from selling zak/czak helms or something? Because those are the only things that would be replaced by the kaiser helm(not counting the chance at good pot anyway). Empress helms can easily trump the stats on the kaiser helm.

Actually, this is to balance the absurd prices for Mastery Books that come with a new class.
And it really doesn't do much anyway.

If you press V you could have found out that nexon announced the date and exactly what they are handing out. Your fault for trying to merch people without doing the proper research

Why do you think the price went "down" when you were buying books?

I actually like how Nexon is giving these hot time items away. I mean I can spend less mesos on
stuff. I can barely afford to buy myself some decent equipment.

this wont happen to a true mercher
go back to henehoing

@rockcaandy: there's an event calendar in game which you can set to a hotkey. It basically tells you all the stuff you can get from events and when they're on. This hot time/ hot day, along with the angelic buster hot days have been in there since the start of tempest. If you aren't going to check it, I can tell you that there are lots of chaos scrolls( normal and goodness) and angelic busters hat (presumably unique on reveal) along with a lvl 80 weapon ( also unique) and a ab Mmb.

TLDR: everything is in the event Calendar so you can't say that nexon didnt say any of this was coming.

I'd rather have it for free then pay you for it.

@Above whoever said that 1 Person doing a MMB run and underpricing books isn't a big deal.
In this case, it's pretty much a free MMB run for every single person in the game.

@blackwest: Free is good. Hog books until they go up in price. Play the market, and be patient

You know they post Hot Time events about a week beforehand on the official website...

And one Random MMB per person who logs on that day isn't messing up the market.
