  • Dexter Merchant in Ladder problem ?

    We have the same team for ladder for the past week. 2 Mages, 1 Knight, 2 Priests, here's the problem, it seems that the one who can see Dexter is only the mages, only once the Knight can see it... so my question is, is it possible that you need to have the highest damage in previous floors to see the npc ? Both priests didn't see dexter in any floor , not even once.

    Because if it's set like that, it's unfair, and i think it should be changed, either make it totally random, or make everybody can see it....

    I seriously doubt that it's only a coincidence, considering it's been 7 days = 7x ladder, and almost every time only the mages saw it.

      no.... Mico is on floor 40 which is a **** merchant, and also there is ozwald on floor 50, a little bit better but still **** merchant. Those 2 can be seen by everybody. Dexter is the important one, I know it's random, but I have a feeling that only the highest damage dealer can see him...

        My team has a similiar problem. However, it's always been just the party leader who sees dexter.

          Same problem here occures. They say it's individual chances but so far I have seen dexter 5 times as partyleader and dps-ranger (I jump quickly to next levels at the start so I deal most dmg still being alone in there). The tanking knight and aoe'ing mage have seen it far lesser times. Both healers have yet to see a single Dexter-shop appear.

          I've already asked what was up but they simply stated it is "individual chances". So appearantly one char seeing it 5 times and the other 0 times out of 7 runs is "chance".

            We will try to change leader starting today, we'll make a priest to be the leader and let's see how it goes.

              We have tried it again, and make one of the priests to be the leader, and yet still one of the mages that can see it in floor 19, and then we let both priests and the knights to do all the killing up til floor 30+, and somehow they didn't see it (i guess that's just unlucky) , after floor 40, everybody attacks normaly, and again one of the mages can see the npc dexter in floor 48.... I seriously think it's the highest damage dealer or the 2 highest damage dealer that can see it...

                My supporting priest has finally seen Dexter at lv19, he does quite some dps up till that level but it is so far the only time it saw Dexter. Our mage sees it lesser often than our tank, which is rather strange at all. One priest has yet to see Dexter at all.
                GM's keep saying it's individual and rare but..these odds are just off and seem to be based off on something we don't know what.

                    When I solo to floor 20 with my alt priest, so far I've seen Dexter 4 times out of 8-9 times in floor 19. I even skipped one and didn't buy the gold badge.

                      Will be moving the thread to Game Discussion as the total damage dealt is irrelevant to whether or not you will see the NPC merchants in Crystal Ladder. The merchants will randomly appear for each individual.

                        The odds still remain ridiculous - I'm in the party mentioned above by speeds and I've seen Dexter all of two times (twice in the same run so only one opportunity to buy; the second time on the floor we died). My priest alt still has to see him for the first time. We've done ladder every day since this was introduced and while I understand it's based on chance, it's very uneven.

                          Sorry, but I don't think that's true at all. It's not random at all. It's only random for the leader and the highest damage dealer.

                          The 2 priests mentioned in my ladder party still haven't seen dexter, NOT EVEN ONCE, and soon it's almost another thursday maintenance, I'll just say it ahead that they won't see dexter in the next 2 more ladders.

                          Just think about it, 14x Ladders, not a single sight of dexter for both priests who do support / lower damage. I really don't see it as 'random'.

                            Seems random enough to me. I don't see the npc's all the time and I'm usually the one who puts out the most damage. I have a priest who comes with me who does nothing but heal, and he's seen Dexter. We sometimes bring along a lower level priest that we have stay completely hidden on every floor (he's just pretty much an extra rezzer :P), and even he's seen Dexter. There's also been floors (not including 40 and 50) where more than one person can see Dexter.

                            Definitely has nothing to do with damage output.
