Oh, and if it's anything like how it is in JMS, the Familiar cards are hard as f'uck to get in higher level cases.
Anyone who is able to post on Nexon's forums mind asking about their intent and pointing out that JMS didn't have expirations and NEITHER SHOULD WE? I am still IP banned--just tried to log in. Lol.

You tried on their new forums, too?
I think there's a slightly higher chance of being noticed by logging Tespia bug report.

Because Nexon. Nuff said, If they could put a expiration date on your characters they would have done so already

I spent about 20 mins on tespia trying to get an advanced knight D familiar card to no avail.

It's hard as hell to get these cards. But the ones you can get are from Cody. It's possible that's the reason why it expires. But then again....still unsure.

They range between Green Snails and Level 70 mobs, give or take. We even have access to Shanghai and Golden Temple mobs.
Oh, and best believe I've been hunting them. I had no idea we could get them from Cody until someone told me. The drop rate it NOTHING like Monster Cards. Been in an area for at least an hour without finding a Familiar Card (this might interest you). Not sure if Nexon made it to drop at a very low rate or if they drop at all. But I will still be hunting.
I started from very low level mobs (Green Snails) and even did Mano. Nothing. Now I'm going to go to level 150+ monsters to see if the drop change had anything to do with that.
When/If I find one, I will check to see if it has an expiration date.

They may just not drop in Tespia. Usually, low level monsters have their familiars drop at a fairly high rate.

I'm thinking maybe the new drop system is at play here? If you're too many levels higher than the mob then it won't drop. I was at orange mushrooms for a long ass time and none dropped.
Familiars as a collectible - Chicocl - 2011-10-21
Maybe they don't drop because of the ascension new drop system.
Edit: Ninjas those days.

So someone (everyone) should report that to make sure it gets fixed.

Oh god yes. Meanwhile, someone try not leveling up ridiculously to get a easy card, if possible. I NEED to know if my pirate sidekick will say "F U" after a month.

I didn't want to do the 2.5gb download but I might as well since I'm the one who cares the most about this, clearly.

Well, I can't do it myself, i'm not on the list, but I would if I could.
Familiars as a collectible - Sarah - 2011-10-21
I'm doing it right now but is there a pre-req quest or anything?
