UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK. They put a limit on the number of boxes you can open now. /emo

I'm going to bed now. Q_Q

[Purrrfect]

i kept getting disconnected last night when i tried.

[Plow]

So who's playing now? I've been playing... semi-moderately-occasionally hardcore-relaxed... ish.

Basically I didn't play at all for a couple days, then took a few days lightly, then decided to use my 7 day licenses and take a break from warhammer to get max use, so I'm 5..4? I think now. Laila, on Mycenae.

My guild is just owning the living shit out of the server, and while I know we're full atm, pretty sure some of the guilds that joined our nation have spots and stuff if anybody is looking to get into a strong group. Pretty much all of the tournaments so far have ended up with final 6-8 of like 4-5 of our guild and the rest people in the nation.


Atm I'm running:

sword sword sword
gun arti gun
monk axe shaman (axe main)

Which will eventually become:

sword - lady knight - spartan
Inventor - Cannoneer - Janniserry
Monk- axe - oracle

May be forced into swapping sword for exo, but I'm not so sure exo will be as massively important when level cap is 120 and we're all decked out in high +'d armor as when cap was 80 and a lot of us were running +7-10 weapons and hardly anybody had armor over +3/4.


Oh yeah, they made auto-move permanent, won't have to buy licenses for it. That definitely makes it so that playing without spending money will be a *LOT* more bearable, especially before you reach the level cap. (which I think playing at level cap spending money will hardly matter at all, auto-move would have been the main thing, really)

I got to 37 then kind of dropped it, lol. Got a little boring, I may pick it back up at some point, but, zzzz, they need to add something new or something.

yeah, the whole doing multiple closed betas with wipes of a game that has nothing significant changing outside of pvp was pretty retarded, but meh I want to see the endgame, and try out pvp with all mercs available and good gear all around etc

I wish my screenshots hadn't gotten fucked up, you should see guild dungeons lol. It's like 80 groups in a little room and they'll zerg you at the entrance if you die once you've initiated combat, and you get no breaks in between fights due to the aggro. They also have hellfire, without it being a combo, and it goes on the spot so if you trade in a merc from merc room it will have the hellfire on it immediately lol. Pretty crazy stuff.

Which server did you start on for OB?

[Ikith]

I've been playing for quite a while just hit 20. I think my group combo sucks though how is this:

Spearman Viking Swordsman
Ace Archer Shaman Gunner

generally best to go with 2 columns of 3 while you're leveling up to 50, so your back row can't get silenced without something dying

that's a good start though, although there's a pretty strong balance issue in the game these days with focusing on 1 type of merc tending to outperform a balanced setup, i.e. multiple archer, multiple spear, etc

I'd consider another spear or 2, or another gunner + cannoner or whatever as you level up

I'm not a big fan of vikings either, they're basically giant targets that are useful once every few rounds

[Lebzile]

You still playing Plow? I haven't logged in since the day after OB started, haha.

[Ikith]

Ugh. I need someone to play with. Shits boring playing alone seriously. Anyone wanna play with me?

[Plow]

what server are you on?


yes I'm still playing some, not a ton

[Ikith]

What server are you on? I'm good for switching over.

[Lebzile]

I'm on Mycaenea or whatever it's called.

[Plow]

I'm on Mycenae as well, Laila / Lailala

[Ikith]

I will roll on there then. Don't know what... Maybe archer main? Any suggestions?

[Plow]

At this point it's really looking like they've got the mains balanced extremely well for endgame.


Staff was considered far and away the worst main during closed beta when level cap was 80 and everyone was upping their weapons but not their armor.


Now there's a fair amount of Staff users at the top in open beta, and in Korean live full release with 120 cap, the #1 guy is staff main, and he even front lines it in 7 man.

There's a guy doing pretty well with a crazyass setup now too, based around a middle row of spears with extremely strong weapons that gets seth's willed, and a front and back row consisting of caster support and an artillery man for deep insight (-600 def on entire enemy group), which he just moves around as they get beat up.


Basically what I'm saying is that you can pretty much toss all the advice I've given throughout the thread, just do what you think looks fun, the balance is good enough now that at worst you'd need to make a few smallish adjustments as you learn more.

[Komm Suesser Tod]

I'm downloading the client right now to try it out. Any server I should choose?

[chardero]

Mycenae ftw!

I needz me a guild >.>

I'm "Chard" most of the time. =p

[Plow]

BTW guys if you make a new account make sure you refer someone, and if you make mule accounts always refer yourself.

Referrer gets points to buy some stuff with, referred person gets some useful stuff in the mail at certain levels.


Feel free to use me ^.~ Laila, and other people should post their names here for referrals too.
