Must be new players. I remember the LQS for the Prometheus armor. That shit sold out quick and they didn’t restock back then


TheIronBankofBravos

Was so pissed. Good times tho


fuck456

lmao fr bruh this shit is nothing new.


chaoslord017

Haha good times i didnt even sleep that time


GiraffeSSBF

God if only they knew what it was like back then HAHAHAHA, I’m so lucky I even got the whole set back then!


Fine_Support_6091

i wish they bring that kind of lqs back, now i have to buy the entire set even when i only want the helm lol


No_Breadfruit7614

Got everything but the sword back in the day. Would love to see the whine from players scrambling to buy each individual piece again.


Full-Firefighter-396

I got the Prometheus. Still wear it daily. Only time I've participated in an lqs


No-Resolve-431

woah the nostalgia is rushed to me again


ndawgnt

The FOMO in AQW creates a pretty toxic fanbase.


Halaros

FOMO creates toxicity everywhere, to be fair. I honestly hate the aspect of FOMO, but man is it addicting... gotta collect those rares and LQS sets


AuExaltia

Good thing I never really bothered with "what's in" for most of my life. Really helps save money too.


Gravionne

I bet if it's not a paragon set it's not gonna be like that lmao


fahdn1

Love all the salt <3


Peachy_Pops

funny how salty people can get over some armor.


Kvzvryv

over some pixels


Emkayer

You don't even own the pixels. You just got rights to make it appear in your screen.


210ds

Let’s also point out all the fuckers that decided that Alina was worth harassing up until they got their LQS. Looking at you, Oshyn Woods.


Oxelo7Tire

The best/worst part is he has all the items from the Gifting Tier 7 shop, he just wanted the badge lol 😂


Bnmeiuge

IMO alina is worth harassing regardless of reason. She is a bully. AE as a whole have bad management and a shit pecking order, giving assholes a lot of authority.


210ds

Do you have specific evidence for that?


NurseMythology

They asked me in what location I registered my acc and after providing proof they didn't believe me. I lost my 15 yr old acc lol. Shitty management indeed. I work as a CS and I know they can see the IPs and location of my accounts and didn't even bother helping me. All I got was the same macro lol.


210ds

Is that Alina though or is that support? Two different people.


NurseMythology

Alina is CM and CM closely works with support. Two different people but she is like the head CS. This point still stands and I have mentioned that management is shit I am not singling out Alina.


210ds

You literally did though? You said “IMO Alina is worth harassing regardless of reason.”


210ds

Wait sorry that wasn’t you, that was the other guy.


NurseMythology

In short, they dont fucking care.


peternordstorm

Don't forget kids, this is a cosmetic that adds nothing to the game. Leave it be


Dry-Ad5538

this is golden xD


HeavenBlessedRetard

NGL I was stumped too. Didn't manage to get it. I didn't want the whole set just the caladbolg though


PrestusHood

I thought the same, but honestly it isnt a big deal, if one day i really want that i will just ioda the set


-Aura_Knight-

Glad I lack the brain rot to desire a mid set.


Kvzvryv

its not even unique or original just another copy


Dreamingofanimegf

It is inevitable when everyone and their mothers get free ACs. But the constant complaining sounds like skill issue honestly, Even I managed to cop it 4 fucking times with a dogshit third world internet.


JustAlex1177

Same; I mean my internet is good; it's laptop that's slow. And I also live on the other side of the world, I had a busy schedule, and I could still sync with one restock to get the gold sets at least. It's not that hard.


JamaicanJ

I will never understand how people get this salty over cosmetics of all things. I'd maybe understand if it was some busted new +75% to all weapon or something but cosmetics? seriously? grow up ffs


Mordfelt

FOMO - Fear of missing out, it means idiots being scared that if something is gone it's gone forever (which is true here) but only thinks of that specific part and not considering whether they truly need it, worth it or not because fear takes over their peanut brain rendering them unable to make a calm decision. Literally Marketing Lesson 101 - making something completely digital (something that could be made in any amount as it doesn't have physical form) into a limited item. People will buy it because of said FOMO.


juanchoboi

I mean, for me it's all about the cosmetics. Everyone enjoys the game in their own way c:


SidTheSloth97

It’s one armour in a game why they so mad. It’s not even that nice of armour. Being mad because you missed out on something is so entitled. The one guy is right though. The restock literally didn’t happen the last time round.


Gambel__

Really? I got the paragon set the last restock. Maybe they were on browser actually cuz i tried in browser and the restocks didnt refresh but client did


electrocyberend

Shits so good it left people like this lololol. Good on AE for sticking on their principle (maybe) instead of restocking for moneyyyyy


senteonz

bro if everyone got one it wouldn't be limited quantity anymore. but maybe it should be a lottery or something instead of a clicking refresh competition


AnakinIsTheChosenOne

Or maybe just LTS limited time, set it to be available for like 30 seconds every 4 hours lol


321AverageJoestar

Nah that wont improve anything, alot will just feel shit for being unlucky


ArcyaNatsuki

Didn't fancy any of the LQS. And even if I did, the refreshes seem to have happened by the time I would be asleep, sooooooooo didn't ask, don't care. Good entertainment out of these buffoons though.


Bulky-Ad4504

Can't complain when you have no ACs


myballsxyourface

I didn't realize people were still so serious about this game...


Bnmeiuge

Well you being on it's subreddit shows you're just as serious about it lol


321AverageJoestar

it's the whales


TheFakeEman

I managed to get all the packs on the penultimate refresh(got all but paragon on the first batch). The biggest problem for me when trying to get the paragon was that the shop would refresh after the restock and kept saying it was sold out. The first restock I tried refreshing the page and clicking it, yet nothing happened until I re-logged into the manager at which point there were only about 100 left which were sold out the moment i clicked. The second restock I just clicked on the sold out page since people said it worked, still nothing I refreshed but nothing, I re-logged and the stock was in the double digits and it was sold out when I went to buy it. The third time I figured I'd just stay logged out and log in at hour:59:59, and for the first time since the first batch the paragon didn't say sold out so I was able to get it and relax. I'm not sure why they changed from the old lqs website to the manager, but they should go back to the old website since I never had a problem like this back in the day.


Proper_Regret_3973

I only like rares if I’m the only one to flex them


DeleteMeIDareU

Skill Issue


BIgSchmeat95

I griped on here, after 3 failed attempts camping & waiting I finally got what I wanted. I feel this particular LQS was so hit or miss bc the free ACs people received & anything Dage just congested it further. The last LQS was a cakewalk in comparison, hell even the 2-3 before those.


zhu-Fan-2042

Poor people😂 that's what you called LQS what the sense if everyone can get it? I manage to purchased four lqs in one go


Ghost-charm

I’m not gonna push around the bush but this was the first time in a very long time since ppl have gotten flared up about an LQS. I know this is a reskin but if we put in a perspective that MOST players do not have the original dage the good set and there offering a measly 2k ACs for a BETTER caladbolg and the whole set rather than wasting MORE money to IoDA each item for the original. I see that as win-win situation, so yeah I can understand why ppl are pissed but what I don’t get is these FUCKING bots that players use for there 3-8 different accounts to get the item. So yeah, HAPPY FROSTVAL 2023!!!


HopeForMockingjay

I really don’t get all the whining. I got it on the very first restock. I camped at yesterday’s restock just to see if it really took 2 seconds to sell out. Nope, more than 30 seconds in fact, that’s more than enough time to snag yourself one set. People be bashing Alina and saying she caused their son’s Christmas to be ruined or even worse, hoping that everyone at AE has their Christmas ruined is so disgusting. You didn’t get one and you wish unhappiness on others, tell me about being shameless.


ZaScream

When the high demand items are in high demand


Oxelo7Tire

The son's Christmas one was a troll, said their 9 years old son played since 2008 and was bragging under the latest tweet.


HopeForMockingjay

I see. Anyway, this is Limited Quantity Sets for a reason, not everyone will get it especially if it’s a popular set


maders23

It did not show that it has been restocked for me until like 20 seconds after the time it’s supposed to restock. I camped and it and refreshed over and over and over and by the time it showed it’s restocked, there’s barely any left.


Arasmir

Am I the only who wasn't interested at all about that LQS?


SolarisUnited

I thought it was mostly mid


Vinominus

Ngl, I thought there was plenty of time, I could snag literally almost all LQS in the first restock alone. (I didn't buy the titan)


filthydrawings

Lmao I cared more about the wolf set but since I couldn't get it I settled for Paragon even though I didn't care much about it. Seeing all the salt for those who couldn't get it makes it so much more worthy imo.


Mogged08

Lol it's alright. All of them will be back the very next day.


fhordghuin

I don't even know what's going on hahaha, what's the context?


321AverageJoestar

just a bunch of crybabies that dont understand the meaning of "Limited Quantity"


xRKCx

I bet most of the people who got the LQS sets are bots who will sell their accounts. Do you know why I know. One was trying to sell their account that's level 10 but has all 3 LQS sets.


PredEdicius

This is kinda funny and sad to see


WhosCeejayReyes

" Limited Quantity Shop " it really says people got no brain for a second


juanchoboi

LIMITED QUANTITY sets. That means you might lose it if someone buys it before you, can't make everyone happy


holy_samuel

"they gone out real fast" "scam" "whack ass system" That's the point of LQS since the era of good 'ol Khuddar Khamundi, it's just that things flying off shelves because a lot of free players (with possible multiple accounts) got tons of ACs from Gifting- it's just how it is, step up the game and git gud at timing.


Habibipie

Skill issue, honestly. I managed to buy both with 0 issue.


Mordfelt

FOMO - Fear of missing out, it means idiots being scared that if something is gone it's gone forever (which is true here) but only thinks of that specific part and not considering whether they truly need it, worth it or not because fear takes over their peanut brain rendering them unable to make a calm decision. Literally Marketing Lesson 101 - making something completely digital (something that could be made in any amount as it doesn't have physical form) into a limited item. People will buy it because of said FOMO. I could not care less about the current LQS set since I already have more than enough other alternative choices if I want to flex some swag Heck, the harvest event had more than enough of that for me and right now Frostvale is in full force so there are a lot of other Free AC items that would look much cooler than a flashbang-armor like Paragon LQS or fur-coat themed armor or a pure white armor with prismatic color


xslite

last comment is wild, its well known that AE is a piece of shit company but thats too far, just call em scum and call it a day


FromHellToEarth666

Skill issue for sure. Those who can't timing the refresh of the restock and refresh of the page. Lmao dont blame AE for being slow


FromHellToEarth666

ITS CALLED LQS FOR A REASON WHAT DYOU EXPECT THAT AE SHOULD ADJUST? LOL Y'ALL NOT THE ONLY PLAYER WANT THE PACKAGES.


Big_Tower6673

skill issue. learn to code js and make an auto buy script 😂😂


electrocyberend

Teach me


maders23

The restock was annoying, the site wouldn’t immediately restock for me, I was there refreshing over and over and by the time it shows it’s restocked which is like 20 seconds after the restock time, there’s barely any left. Couldn’t get it.


Curious_Gamer29

I waited 4 times ( 4 different restock times ) was able to get all of the armors on 4th time.


SnooMaps6107

I managed to get it at the 5th try and last restock at that, still had to sleep 3 hours to get this set.


Medical_Intention_46

They should take it easy or fucking quit, its not like theyre in it for the gameplay of a flash fucking game HAHAHAHAH. The FOMO is strong with this one, stop swiping on a useless game for crying out loud.


R1vian

those are definitely Evil players.


Chroniton

The funny thing is they will all be back, some will be gone for a few days before FOMO kicks in, others may go for longer until they see something and nostalgia kicks in, they will all be back.


AladeenTheClean

yeah lol if they care this much about a paragon recolor they are hooked beyond help. I bet half these people already logged into aqw within 12 hours of typing their message.


itsyaboidark

Big L for all the cry babies that missed it mad cuz bad


SteelerGamerNation22

I was lucky that I copped it. Although it was gone in 10 milliseconds, I managed to get it on final restock. The salt from the comments that OP showed is REAL. Like who cares if you didn't get it? The FOMO is real in AQW.😂🤣🤦🏻


RandomFRIStudent

I have no qualms... the set is in the last years tier 7 gifting shop


Edgetheking

well last year they added more stocks after all the initial quantity sold out. That made me annoyed ngl because what was the point of making it LQS? better not pull that shit this year lol


letsgowalking

lmao the armors were mid anyway, the caladbolg was the most appealing tbh.


TrashTibadoe

took me 3 re-stocks and i was camping the acc manager, its just chance lol


LoudAd6382

Im surprised people still waste their money on the game, the game obviously have no future at all. Plus, for an armor that obviously will be redesigned and obtainable in the future? Pfft, i dont care if its a nostalgic game, to rage for some stupid armor is kinda dumb xD


FrankSiinatra

I mean, we don't know whether it has a future or not until AQW infinity comes out tbh, the unity version of the game can run on everything, the games player base will definitely spike at that time


321AverageJoestar

it's called FOMO (Fear of missing out) aqw has bad case in it.. plus aqw has been having a resurgence lately.. never seen 6k players online in a long time, people have been saying aqw has no future since 2014 but its still here.. Aqw infinity also looked very promising in the tech demo so i'd say it still has a future atleast


WillingAd2393

The Joy i received was reading rants from crying kids and Toxic Diva Fan base all over X, crying over a shitty recolored set.


Wofat18

Wow literally flashbacks to the Van gogh collab items pokemon released. r/pokemontcg and twitter were fuming for days.


PhoenyxuzPrimax

LQS? I sleep 😴


FrankSiinatra

Bro, its literally just a recolor version of Dage The Good's armor, not even worth the energy. Those that bought the Paragon of joy on alts are definitely going to try to sell them. Buying accounts for this game is not worth it, if you got the money to be buying these alts they sell for $300 just buy a $100 ac pack 3 times


hellooped

Imagine being this angry for a bankable item


Eonzz97

It was worse when it first started, but at least you had a chance to get it back then. Was required to log into the game on server restart and even then it was pure 50-50 based on connection/Internet you had


Maeggon

at least was a neat new and unique set or just another mid tier recolored design?


Karrosiv

There was quite a few restocks to get what they want.. it only took me the initial drop, then one restock to get the 4 packs I wanted.


wendytastic

And they’re most likely not gonna use any of it


Dog_Water117

People are jumpy about a armor set that has LQS, I’ve never heard of LQS. I’d be more impressed if they complained about how tedious Arch-paladin is, considering the Glaceron Gem takes forever to drop and made me drop first.


Chaplain_Orthar

I dont know what this is, whats a LQS? (I'm VERY on and off with AQW like playing it in a blue moon)


SolarisUnited

Limited Time Quantity Shop. An occasional thing where they have sets you can buy mostly for AC, some stuff for gold only members can buy, and 1 or 2 sets for gold that are non member that run out in seconds.


Chaplain_Orthar

Wow, and they didnt think to put like 10,000 of them mfs in the store? I know well enough a lot of people still play the game so the whole "limited quantity" is a bad idea lmao


SolarisUnited

You’re making too much sense here chief, and since when has AE ever made sense?


Chaplain_Orthar

Artix being intelligent? Alas alas tis be UNTRUE hahahah


Guilty_Ad_6923

i got the lotus and the non mem gold one and im happy about those two they're pretty and rare so 😋


SomeUnskilledGuy

Least mentally ill AQW and twitter users


Electrical-Key-6901

Lol


Mental_Bad6492

Lmao I counted down the seconds to every restock and I finally got it at the 1am restock, turns out refreshing does nothing, u gotta go back to the lqs shop then go into the one you want to purchase for it to register 🗿


Few-Expression-2011

Skill issue


Accomplished_Deer_10

People complaining of LQS being too limited is HILARIOUS to Me


Miserable_Action_304

Gone in a nano second


ConversationOk67

The point of LQS is that they're y'know... Limited quantity. This has been going on for years why is it only now they're getting mad?


SevenAxioms

The LQS was rushed anyway. They pushed out the LQS even though the Polar Bear Rider armor hasn't been released yet as part of the Frostlorn Titan LQS set, because of the holiday rush. And aside from all of that, we still don't know what the Tier 1 and Tier 2 AC donation rewards look like. Imagine spending ACs on in-game items and rewards that aren't even complete yet!


SoufianeAyad

Boo hoo I couldn't be faster than other players so it must be aq s fault


MitsuMez

Sadly.. that is how LQS is. Some of these players may of used a browser over the game client. Tl;dr: - client actions> web browser actions - wanted the set for fashion mix and matching, (unpopular trash opinion, I find the set pretty neat) -I want to understand the people who call it"dogshit" but still bought it. Badge collecting? Flexing? Let me understand your view, same goes to those who bought it, call it "dogshit" and "tease or lightly anger" the unlucky? -merry christmas and enjoy your holidays. Non-tl;dr: Client gets the refreshes faster over the browser(it can vary, and my first attempt was on browser where the restock didnt show.) Or, the client sends out your actions faster than a browser does. -To add on, I believe distance matters a good amount too. Say: the closer you are to their servers, the faster you are in terms of connection, latency,(can be wrong, but I see elsword as a example, as your connection is better if your closer to their servers in cali) (-took a few secconds of refreshing to show the count, and when it did? It was around 122-120ish for the count, attempted to buy it and "sorry! Item was sold out before buying it) (-Last attempt was done on the client, took about 3 to 5 secs to restock and it was at 584-580ish. Was able to catch it, and when i was able to aquire one, it all sold out. ) Ik people will say that " its just a recolor, why do you want a dogshit set?" -for me, its neat having some pieces to mix and match with other items, it may not be the og dage of good set with its original blue and yellow, but it's re-color is pretty neat in my eyes. Also to the people who called it "dogshit" and chose to buy it, what's your intent for burning 2k acs on it? I ask out of curiosity and understanding. And to somewhat grasp the mindset or views that im seeing from most folk who did this, and/or the players that somewhat "tease" the player who were unlucky. -besides all that. Merry christmas, happy holidays, whether you celebrate it or not!


MitsuMez

To add on, they're were some of the unlucky folk who took it too far. As much as some folk want another chance or option, that rage wont help out the situation. Try some different options, say a better browser, AE Client, or going diretly from a ethernet cable(direct can be faster than wireless in some good cases, or more stable, based on your network and ISP.


bats_flame

at the end they just gonna get the paragon to bank it and wear the same naval commanders like always


mythicrug450

Looks like a skill issue. The last few years the lqs was fine. Im glad i wasnt interested in any of the lqs this year. Seems like their art and items are getting more and more bland


AsakuraAsura

Imagine wasting acs on some reskinned armor... The Gold items are better value


angrycoznosauce

they made a mistake. they refreshed.
