    Even in match making on the 8 mans, you can usually get by before 10 wipes. Its a lot, but it is doable. Im sure as the average persons ilvl increases as well, that it wont even be in the same realm of difficulty as it was a couple weeks ago.

    Ya, I picked up a couple of those on Peyto and noticed the little clock on it. Weird idea to have a 20 minute timer on those? But Im sure they have some special snowflake NPC that likes those over the generic 2500 hearts epic rapport item thats basically free. Last I checked I had like 75k...

    Pretty dumb to do a ban wave and not have put anything in place before hand to limit it further. I can count a hundred different ways they could combat gold farmers, so its just pure laziness to just do a mass ban without any restrictions in place. Gold Farmers will be back within a day cause...

    For some reason I thought only certain classes could counter, not all of them. So Ive been cruising along just learning encounters etc. without even trying to counter and now it's going to be a fuck ton harder to break my own bad habits and learn when I should do it. Normally, I'd feel bad for...

    Harmony, 11am/1pm/3pm eastern, Saturday on Regulus. The event takes all of 5 minutes, but you're not guaranteed to get the song. I got it the first try, but some people had to do the event 2 or 3 times to get the song. So make sure you hit the 11am one so you can improve your odds if RNG...

    Granted a good build is going to put you leagues above other players, regardless if you're playing a support or not. On one hand, I kind of expect people to not care about it in tier 1 and 2. But on the other hand, even RNG should be able to give these people at least 2 engravings maxxed out...

    Man I hope the islands are worth af cause the thought of going to another island just makes me want to gag. Argos is a cool looking fight though.

    Thats a lot of hoops to jump through with Mari shop. If he really did spend that much, then he likely hit up gold sellers. Which, as bad as gold is inflating and the fact that tier 1 mats sell for a fraction of what they did two weeks ago - even if he was a billionaire, spending anywhere near...

    Or they could do nothing and let gold inflate to the point its worthless. If these decisions are squarely in AGS's department for "westernization" then I dont have a good outlook on it. I wouldnt be negative towards a company over a single game (NW) but Im seeing changes to this game compared...

    Oof. Im glad I cashed my gold out when I did. Im sitting on 21k BC for about the same transfer of gold. :oops:

    Alts have plenty of uses, but for feeding mats - its purely about feeding mats in tier 3. Tier 1 and 2 are just a hiccup in the grand scheme.

    Well all of them can "catch" you - but Chromanium is like my go-to farm in that tier.

    I think they could revert the HP changes and the content would not be directly easier, but passively so. Nerfing mechanics in a long fight will just make the experience dull and "feel" like it lasts longer. If anything, I would like to see research added to the stronghold for each guardian /...

    Maybe if I'm so flush with gold that saving an hours worth of time on an alt makes sense in comparison to my dread of doing it the ump-teenth time. But even then, the value just doesnt sound like a good trade off.

    I've been converting into blue crystals just cause it makes sense that gold is inflating, so Im right there with you. Ive exchanged gold anytime Ive gotten above 4k (feel like thats a safe area) and Ive put away something like 9k blue crystals to use for later. Not including what I got from the...

    I was a retard in the tower with my Artillerist for about a week. Got to floor 44 where slimes just sectioned off the entire place and then bombs would come out. The thought was that the slimes were going to slow me by some obscene amount and the bomb-men would just make quick work of me...

    I have 37 shards left after the last attempt, and Ive used all my weeklies (pirates, chaos grind, etc.). Got the song on the first run yesterday, so I guess I was lucky in that area at least. Considering the mats I sold yesterday, that was an easy ~20k gold. Look through the rewards for each...

    For god sakes - get the song from Harmony Island. The island should be popping today - so make sure you get it. Was scrounging for weapon stones after 6 fails, finished Azure Island and finally broke the failures and got to 1100. After days of farming mats and failing, I had over 4k guardian, 67...

    You're using the worst offenses of F2P as examples. Asian or not, there are good examples that dont limit you in natural gameplay. But on that same note, thats also my exact point "You get what you pay for" - as in, if you paid $165 over a 6 month period in a F2P game, and got the same...

    People can split hairs all they want, but it all boils down to the same shit. What amount of content/enjoyment can you get for the same amount of money. An existing Sub based MMO, starting from scratch, is going to charge you a monthly sub, an initial box price, and an Expansion box price. On...

    We're doing the last two 8 man bosses for tier 2 tonight at 8 eastern as a guild group. Between the t3 peeps and those of us that have been in T2 for a couple weeks now, should go down much quicker than a pug.

    Depends on who you ask - I thought T2 Guardians were easier than T1. But I feel like combat really started to "click" for me in T2? The Abyss dungeons in T2 are only hard cause you have more people. The mechanics in T2 Abyss dungeons for example, if you know the mechanic - you can outright...

    The inspiration for each area looks as though some of them come from AAA single player games. Tortoyk is "Little Big Planet", Stern is FFVII, etc. Not saying that those are the storylines you get, but the theme of the area. Yorn's great castle is basically Iron Forge from WoW. Cant really...

    Are you maxxing out your Una tokens for the week? If you save up 500 tokens for the biggest package, it has the best payout and should help with simple stuff like potions. Make sure you're doing the Abyss dungeons on your alts as well. None of that will make you Voldeth types of gold, but...

    I went to the monastery to gobble up tons of herbs on potions just a little while ago. While there, I looted a platinum field ticket. Have no idea, so I track it down and do the guide quest. Next thing I know, its a map that sets you up to find four nodes through the entire area of herbs...

    Best way to explain it to people that cant stay f'n still is to just say dont move with X and RIGHT CLICK to point the laser. People have an inherent desire to click all over the place to just point the laser.

    I dont have enough fingers and toes to count all the times Ive ended up soloing a Guardian boss, go back for refill and then at the end have someone say something like "I had no idea you could do that!" I think the game has a lot of little nuances like this that frustrate people. Im just not...

    I dont think you're reading through the guide in its entirety - it says "Skip this part for now" in several sections. Then at the end of it all, you should have the songs etc. to go back to those islands and complete them in their entirety. The guides on Maxroll are pretty f'n good from the...

    I started getting interested after Phantom Palace. Yorn was cool, but I could see through the veil of "We stole Iron Forge" pretty easily. Feiton was quite fun and Ive been working on 100%'ing Feiton Adventure log. Farming cooking mats is going to back to EverQuest type of design though...

    A lot of classes just feel shitty to level up after you've seen how they play at max level. I picked a Sharpshooter to manually level and lord did its abilities just flat out suck w/o tripods. Its like my 5th alt, and is definitely on the back burner of all my alts - but in my opinion, its a...

    Cube Tickets are probably rated "rare" on the scale of common to relic type of drop rate. I have 4 on my sorcerer, but Ive only had 2 ever on my Artillerist. The sorcerer is probably 1/3 as old as my main. Silent Hall however, Ive gotten two to drop twice this week.
