Hi everyone! It's been a while since you last saw me and you deserve an explanation. I've been going through some unfortunate personal troubles which left me no time for leisure and so I could not be involved with Core over the summer. It hurts me to see that the player base has dwindled but I am confident that this extraordinary community can be rekindled and I will do all I can to use your feedback to build a server that you, the players, will be eager to return to!
Firstly, I'd like to clarify Head Admin FarbodD's message on game updates as it seems to have been misconstrued by some. While it is true that updates have become infrequent, this does not mean that they are completely halted. We work on Core projects whenever our personal lives allow it, and the fact that part of our administrative team has lost motivation and contributes on a more casual basis has strained our ability to produce content.
We are working on a big, long-term project that will distinguish us from other Fiesta servers. Because of this, we have established a more realistic approach: updates will be smaller and potentially more frequent. We ask that the community is mindful of this approach when providing feedback on the forums.
Now onto the juicy stuff...

It's a Core Christmas...
Snow is piling up on Core Fiesta! Until January 4th, Christmas trees will be found in every major town2 . Dance in front of one to receive a special holiday buff! Don't forget that you can also dance in front of [Admin]Amor in Roumen to receive a cleric's HP & SP buff.
What better way to spend your holiday break than by playing Core? That's why we're raising the EXP and drop rates to 1.5x the normal rate, and 2x during in-game events, until January 4th! We may distract you from grinding at times with our festive events both in the game and on the community forum...
Snowflake Exchange
This holiday season you'll be scurrying to collect as many snowflakes ( ❄ ) as you can. Until January 4th, 2015, Mr. Frost and his friends will appear in all major towns to drop snowflakes. There will be opportunities for you to gain additional snowflakes through events. For every milestone, you'll be eligible to exchange your snowflakes for a prize from any Core Fiesta staff you encounter in-game (redeemable until January 4th, 2015). Here's what you can win3:
You can win all twelve prizes by referring the most friends in the Refer a Friend contest. Stay tuned for pop-up events where you can win more ❄! Event reward chests are guaranteed to have snowflakes! Keep playing because you never know when an event might happen...
Snowflake Hunt & Holiday Card Events
Attention forum lovers - a blizzard scattered six colourful snowflakes across random posts within the Core Fiesta community forums. Check out the event thread to find out what they look like and what you can win for finding them!
Are you good at writing heart-warming holiday greetings? Help me fill out a holiday greeting card explaining what you like most about Core and what your resolution is for 2015 to win even more prizes.
As always, we welcome any feedback & suggestions related to events. If you are unsatisfied with the types of events on Core or if you can help improve them, please let us know by creating a thread in the Event Suggestions forum. Thank you for your continued support and we hope you will continue to be a part of our community for many years to come!
With love,

I want to know if im the only one that wish that mobs in kq give 1 exp thinking that nobody use kq to lvl only to farm different items from chest and vault rewards
Too sometimes i want to do kq for boredom with friend but cant cause of the too high exp
would actually prefer a bit of a give/take ordeal with it.
drop mob dmg (not too much) and increase poison resist (not 100%) makes it to where archers cnt just kite but need a few other ppl. making it a bit easier but still beefing it up at the same time
After plvling a friend today i wanted to suicide to loose exp cause as many people know i mostly play permanent char for the new instance as well.But when i went to suicide i realized that i was loosing only 0.33% instead of 10~50% i loose normally and it took me actually about 40 minutes of suicide to can go during 1h30 in CC to be back another 40 minutes at suiciding.

With the PvpKQ I see almost never anyone joining, hell the only reason I joined them was because levelng with my friends when I just got on this server for Exp cards ! PvpKQ for the capped players is unappealing and so this is where I suggest we put in Purple Pots ! T5 Defense/Str/Dex Not a overwhelming prize but certainly will make alot of interest ! and looking forward to the guild tournament much appreciated!
Amazing idea i must admit Valiant x) maybe 4-6% drop rate tought like crown is under 1% and see how it being to be popular slowly(people start to sell gold crown) or even 1-2% but for everyone participant cause cleric life is hard in pvp kq and me as a perm if i do pvp kq i know my chance to finish first compared to alot of player
Well, I don't know about you guys, but I love to perm. There's just a problem with the DDM instance. In other servers that I've played, the monsters, "Devil Warrior". They usually get debuffed. (stun, defense decrease, attack rate decrease)
The mobs are already strong, and they've got a ton of HP. Resisting every debuff just makes them a lot stronger. Was thinking if you can fix the resist, or at least nerf the mobs. In my opinion, the bosses are a lot easier than the mobs.
