    Na that's just it, but it's pretty "new", we're not getting like T3 launch build and such and instead a build that's only a few months old similar to the current RU build, which is good. The worst part of korean ports is getting shit from 1year+ ago and then knowing you'll get buffs/qol stuff...

    Well there's a video, but largely the main difference is the Engraving makes the special mode permanent, so you don't need specialization to increase uptime and can focus on crit/swiftness plus it also caps your hp at 25% so you can activate any <50% requirement like some tripods and one damage...

    Seems we're getting a somewhat recent build, which makes sense since there's T3 but still recent within that, with DX11 and Berserker Madness rework(Late december RU update). Sucks they haven't posted the Cash Shop news yet though, not sure if it's gonna be later today/tomorrow or monday or...

    Right I probably shouldn't have said that the way I did in terms of full expansion reset like wow does, but I still believe they will do some sort of reset at some point. DFO does that too, even though it takes months/years to gear up, they still do "gear resets" when they upgrade the level...

    Kinda. T3 is the only "big" tier, T1 and T2 are just relics of the past updates at this point. T3 will last a while just because there's nothing else to do besides that for now, since KR doesn't have T4 and we're starting late anyway. So T3 will last, but you can consider T3 as a WoW expansion...

    Well technically, if you're NA, you can get somewhat of a lead if you no life the first few days. Not like massively important, but the daily resets are at 1AM local time but the game launches globally at the same time so in the US(west coast especially) you can play all day on tuesday before...

    You can download the RU version and test the game out, you do need a VPN but you can get a free trial on one to test it out as long as you don't waste your bandwith watching youtube with it on. It plays somewhat like Diablo, skills with cooldowns, clicking for movement. Not very story...

    On engraving books btw since I see a video but the guy doesn't go over it that much I think, you can get A LOT of the green and blue ones pretty easily. There's vendors on certain islands that will sell like 3-5 books a week and there's several of these, so getting 20 is actually just a matter...

    If you read the quests and shit, it's like 18-20hours depending on how efficient and stuff. If you skip stuff, it's more like down to 12-ish. If you're hardcore speed leveling, it's like 8 or 9h iirc? But that's ppl who know all the quests and use efficient movement skills and speed pots and...

    Gold is the best value yeah, that said it might still be better value to just buy currency instead, they said they have a post about the cash shop to be released this week so we'll know more at that point. For example the char slot might not be worth it for you if you don't plan on having a...

    Are you sure 1-50 will be worse than T1 to T3 prog on our server though? I mean on RU and KR I'm sure, cause there's already catchup mechanics, so it doesn't take long to upgrade your gear at each tier with 100% oil and what not, but on our version? I don't know if it'll be that fast or easy...

    Lost Ark Online

    I'd agree if we were limited to T1, but with T3, being able to boost through 1-50 doesn't mean all that much, still gonna have to grind your way to 1300+, during which you will be tempted to buy random shit to make it less painful anyway. If they had launched with T1 only, I think it'd have...

    They said a long time ago there wouldn't be paid boost at launch iirc. Like a few months ago. Boosts at launch is actually a good way to get pretty bad press about P2W and other stuff. 1month later or whatever sure, but right away it means anyone swiping gets a direct advantage right away, for...

    Lost Ark Online

    Yeah was making a post about it. They also confirmed you will get 12 character boosts for the 1-50 boost with a single manually leveled char. Only the further boosts(rohendel/yorn etc) will require 1 for 1(and maybe 1:1 for 1-50 past the initial 12 that part is unclear, although 12 is plenty...

    The presets are apparently back to what they were but they might have some more. Starter outfits is something yeah but largely irrelevant seeing as how you change gear like 10mins in, people made a lot of "muh censorship" posts early on for basically nothing. The NPCs I'm not sure if they'll...

    Well I have all the apex quests there, but maybe you just have never done it in Rampage? I cleared them all there personally, I'm going through the stupid low rank quests now to try to get everything done, it's fucking annoying though you don't even get mats for talismans so my stock of mats is...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    DRK is the highest DPS tank, but the difference is negligible and not something you'd notice. It's like 150-200DPS at lvl 90. That said while leveling, classes get their skills at different times, and so some classes are stronger than others in the process. Unless you're soloing dungeons...

    You get a standard HR quest for Apex mobs once you've done the rampage at least once. But if you've never done the rampage versions yeah have to check events. Some of the events are harder versions though(I think all the solo apex events are emergency apex which is harder? and the only standard...

    So cleared P4S P1, started prog on P2. Took a little while but not so bad, it's a fun first phase at least, changes a bunch between each pull, and the first mechanics are the mechanics that matter the most so once you get the mechanics, it's just a matter of not fucking up, instead of having to...

    Switching channels has a cooldown though I'd assume? Like in BDO you can only switch every 15mins or whatever. Some other korean games you can switch as much as you want, I don't remember how it was on beta, guess I could launch the RU client later and check. Other issue is how many channels...

    Yeah the ears are costume only, although a few of her costumes already have ears. It is a loli though.

    Path of Exile

    They constantly nerfed golems but pretty sure Carrion and Stone golems are still a thing. Ele golems are kinda dead, they nerfed them a bunch and then they removed EE too. I think there's some unique chest you can use to ignore resists entirely which would make them ok but that has several...

    WEX is weakness exploit. Axe Hopper is a switch skill for iirc the 3rd skill, replaces the guard counter thing, have to do the quest for it. The counter basically gives you 5 phials which is ok, but Axe Hopper is an axe attack(can use from sword form though) than then jumps into the air, and...

    Monster Hunter Rise

    Do you have a proper setup for it? Load Shells 2 is pretty much mandatory and replaces Focus 3 from World(you can still use focus but it's honestly kinda shit it feels like). Load Shells let you get 5 phials as soon as the gauge is yellow, instead of red, so you can usually get it with one...

    On the flipside the odds of getting one you can use are probably close enough to 0, and the price for any of the good nodes is going to be astronomical. It offers a lot of options though. Things like poison prolif on ranger, perma fortify on duelist, rage zerker node or end charge juggernaut...

    It really isn't that. The point is people thought they'd have time to prepare stuff before they have to "rush" to endgame. Not necessarily a long time, but for example in XIV when the expansion launched, it didn't have the raids at launch. It did have some "endgame" fights but they purposefully...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    It's old news. Honestly I personally don't mind that part at all seeing as how it's optional(I think?), but in the same patch they also covered the Succubus more because she was "too sexy" or whatever, so yeah it's a bunch of dumb shit.

    There's one to display debuffs in a non shitty way that I'd use if I ever bothered installing the launcher thing. Also one for better cooldowns display(big number on buttons) and a bunch of qol stuff like showing ilvl on inspect and what not, nothing too big but the Dalamud plugins had a lot of...

    Seems absolutely pointless, especially since they're giving tab affinity for them. A random old non upgraded tab for gem and one for flask and that's good enough.

    But if you need to mow a lawn, you could hire goats, they'd do a somewhat shitty jobs, but they'd do it for free/cheap. That's really all it means, people with passion can be exploited to work more for less.

    It's really unclear what they're doing for our version seeing as how it's a unique launch. They will add catch up mechanics later for sure but as for the release stuff it's hard to tell. Seeing as how they want to add raids(the big ones, since they call a bunch of shit raids in this game) asap...

    T3 announcement is getting mixed reception, largely because it makes it rough to make alts from the get go. You'll want to grind all the way to T3 asap on your first char to get access to weeklies and shit in there cause they give a lot more rewards than weeklies in previous tiers. That means...

    The big map will come in a later patch. At release, it'll only be the standalone new map stuff.

    It's also quite possible Zana has a bunch of new functions with the new Atlas(similar to how she gives orbs and shit), so they split it between 2 NPCs, one for the map thing that only does that(Kirac), and one for all the new map modifier stuff(and that's Zana). I guess they could have her die...

    Not sure how that's relevant though? Like what do games have to get longer later in the series or something? Should FF16 be 350hours? Games can be all the same length it really doesn't matter, and other souls probably didn't have nearly as much side/optional content as this will have. Granted...

    Yeah for Apex mats for the rampage weapons and stuff, just do rampage, the normal fights are like challenge fights and really don't reward enough I think, but in rampage it's super easy and you get a bunch of other mats too. I made the rampage HBG earlier, took me like an hour or so of doing...

    Well I'm too lazy to find the exact time, but the OW2 announcement was nov 2019 and pretty sure the last content patch was right after, so yeah been 2 years now, probably will be 2.5 years total. They did patch a few things over time, but they basically stopped adding characters and maps to the...
