Fairly certain it's going to be unbalanced as fuck at every level, lol. Not that it really matters, it seems it's very possible for pretty much every class to infinite combo already, unless you have like 0 ping you can never fucking aerial evasion out of stuff without rubberbanding straight back into their combo. So at "high level play" it'll just be who can hit first. 8v8 is messy as fuck and completely stupid, but I get some morbid enjoyment out of playing it. I was having a blast at first doing it once servers came up but the lag got progressively terrible as the day went on. By the end I literally couldn't land a melee combo without people teleporting out of it constantly, was fucking annoying.

So wrong, a lot of the classes are missing their main PVP skills, such as Mystic's Time Stop, Paladin's shield charge for distance closing, Swordsman's, well, everything. So many classes are worthless in PVP and others are broken as fuck (Priest, Mercenary) at the 24 cap.

**Kiarax** · 2011-08-20 03:09

Yes, I am well aware some classes are much better than others right now... what I'm saying is that'll still be the case later on too. Sharpshooter is never going to be good at PvP, for example. And even when others are better, they'll still be slaughtered by the better classes unless you can land an infinite.

Edit: Lol, just read the blog update on the official site about PvP and this gem was in there:
• When playing a Respawn game, note the first person who dies. They’re the noob. Concentrate on killing them every time they respawn and you can rack up some fast points.
This too:
• Use your Empowerment points in the Arena. You’ll rack up great rewards from Arena NPC Michael much faster than you will doing PvE quests. This will slow down your leveling, but it’s worth it because you’ll have amazing gear when you hit the level cap.
WHAT GREAT REWARDS DO THEY SPEAK OF? I have hundreds of medals rotting in my invo already.

**Lebzile** · 2011-08-20 04:36

There is no "amazing" gear, it's shitty blues. The stuff you (won't) get from Minotaur Nest is better.

**Kiarax** · 2011-08-20 04:42

I know, that was why it was amusing. And mino nest gear isn't that bad to get, just ridiculously expensive... with level cap raise coming so soon I don't have the heart to even work on the elf queen set. Even though I know it can last til 40.

**Qalbert** · 2011-08-20 08:05

but guys mmorpg.com gave it best pvp of 2011. can't argue with the facts.

**Indalecia** · 2011-08-20 12:17

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahahaha, just tried to log on, got a wait timer on people needing to get in

Aion, welcome back, I forgot all about your launch days

**Kiarax** · 2011-08-20 13:38

Anyone know if crafted armour effects stack? I got enough medals to make a full set of the reflect armour but I don't know if it's better to get one of every piece or reflect on all 4. If I can get 4 procs at once and make people kill themselves I WILL FUCKING DO IT.

**Tymon** · 2011-08-20 15:04

Do we even know if the cap is going straight to 40, or if it's going to be in the 30s?

If it's 40 then there's less incentive to get the epic sets, but if it's 30s then obviously there is more.

**Kiarax** · 2011-08-20 15:08

I think foreign version was 24 > 32 > 40 > 50? If so we'll probably get 32 first too.

**Noobta** · 2011-08-20 16:39

32(cerb nest)->40(Manticore, Apocalypse, sea dragon nest)->50(archbishop nest)
Sea dragon is 8 player nest, and it's a bitch

Only place to get purples though. Super expensive to upgrade, and they can fail from level 1...

**Bartylby** · 2011-08-20 17:23

i thought it went 32 40 45 then 50 ?

by fail do you mean pop ? x.x

**Lonely** · 2011-08-20 18:37

Ya its actually 32 > 40 > 45 > 50 for level cap increases. Sea dragon is a 45 raid, and manticore/apocalypse are 40.

Side note: even though arch nest is 50, Sea dragon is still a waaaaaaaaaaayyyyy harder fight.

**Kiarax** · 2011-08-21 02:06

If it took Koreans 3 months to beat it we better get a fucking chest at the end I swear to God.

**Bartylby** · 2011-08-21 03:29

damn where is everyone... i swear it's been me and aki only for the past two or three days lol

**Kiarax** · 2011-08-21 03:33

I have been on all day everyday lol. Seen Indy, Qbert and Plaxis on a lot too. Got my Swordsman to rank 4 in PvP but I think imma slow it down now and get my SS and Priest up a little. Need like 74k points or something stupid to get next rank...

**Falisa** · 2011-08-21 03:59

Sure do wish I could be playing with you guys. Still nothing.

**Qalbert** · 2011-08-21 08:06
