Why is t3 content being removed?
So what will you be able to play then if they removed?
How will you be able to grind to be able to go to t4 on a new character?

Not all t3 content is being removed, just the ones people no longer play anymore
Dont think you read the post.
T3 is not being removed.
Only Platinum Field, Challenge Abyssal Dungeons, and Challenge Guardian Raids
Plat Field is very old and dated and they reworked the rewards for the new Trade Skill to drop extra rewards.
The other content being removed is Challenge content, the things you could only run once a week that very few people have done since T4 released. Its dated content that only gives T3 items and might be replaced later.
I understand no one really does platinum field anymore but I still don't quite get what's the problem having it in the game. I'm genuinely asking since it can be done solo and it drops some materials/achievements.
why can't it just be there as an option, shouldn't cost a thing since it's already there and working.

similarly, I never understood why ghost ship and other ship content was removed and not reworked to be playable solo for same reasons. the amount of unobtainable achievements (both on steam and in-game) is a bit questionable at this point.

Cause they only care about endgame content that rakes in more money and creates more fomo.

game is getting bigger as they introduce new contents and this may slow down game experience. treat it like your refrigerator is getting full with lot of things and need to get rid of anything not needed to free up space for new one.


holy ♥♥♥♥, that mustard bottle sat in my fridge for 8 years, i never used it, THANKS!

Next time read what they are removing because the title is very click bait.

They aren't removing anything important and they aren't removing T3.

''On February 26th, the Platinum Field, Challenge Abyssal Dungeons, and Challenge Guardian Raids will be removed from the game, as these older Tier 3 pieces of content will no longer be updated.''

Challenge Abyss/GR will be replaced with a new system that rewards stuff too. Platinum field? Platinum field another pointless content you should be using lifeskill energy on t4 content not t3.
A new type of "raid" will replace these activities, I believe it's called "Strike", which SG director said it's very easy content and will provide progression mats. It will be both 4 and 8 players with normal and hard difficulties. We just have to wait and let the koreans beta test it for us or maybe we'll get at the same time.

I just checked if there are any events giving out lots of stuff and if I should try the game out now just to see content is being removed.

As a potential new player this itself does create fomo because I can't tell if the content is fun or not to me who hasn't done it a hundred times and would be experiencing it fresh and new.

Was the content that is being removed actually fun and people just moved because they played it so much already / other content gives far better reward? or was it only mediocre and not really that fun in the first place so barely anyone cares, just glad that to get the rewards they can now do other content?

The FOMO in this game is not being able to do the latest and highest content,

while it is still relevant.

So removing content is common and unless you keep playing regularly all sorts of content is coming and going?

Sounds horrible tbh.

I loved the old content, prefer it to the new endgame stuff.

It's really really bad imo. But the elitist only care about end game and voice that so it's gonna keep going down this terrible path.

It's very outdated old content that has no reason to exist anymore and it's being replaced by a much more rewarding system that's coming with this update.

Literally everyone that plays the game is happy about the change. Since it gets revamped into a much better system. No one liked doing the platinum fields and challenge abyss/gr.

And you shouldn't even be doing platinum fields, because you'd be wasting life skill energy on useless materials when it can be used on t4 life skill materials instead. To even get the tickets to enter platinum fields (which was very rare anyways) it would mean that you are once again wasting life skill energy on t3 materials which is a really bad move, since the tickets would only drop on t3 life skill stuff and not on t4 life skill stuff.

Challenge abyss/gr was so boring and waste of time and the only reason we were doing these is because of a really small chance of getting legendary cards which is getting revamped with a different card weekly reward system.
