The upgrade system looked really easy in the western version though. I think I read we somewhat have T2 patches but without the T2 content which makes the T1 content trivial to gear for? You can still make alts to pool ressources but it didn't look like it was super necessary and people already...

As far as I remember, collectables are also penalized right away. Basically as soon as the expansion launch, every 80 collectable should be worth 10k xp and like 1 or 5 scrip or whatever. I could remember wrong and they might take you to 81 though, so if you have some time to waste you could...

Yeah after they added Ishgard Restoration, leves became obsolete for leveling, but they won't be updating ishgard until 6.1 or later I'd think, same for beast tribes but even later, it's like 6.3 content or whatever. Those are basically catch up mechanics, similar to Bozja being added for...

Na that's a separate change, they're specifically nerfing triple leves but increasing single leves, as a % based change, besides the whole "need less xp but get less xp" change. They're basically balancing leves better so triple leves aren't as much of an obvious choice anymore(and also nerfing...

Double the noise and temps?

You use a mount most of the time, and the mounts are decently fast. Only time you're on foot usually is in buildings and dungeons, and in the latter you can use movement skills or consumables to speed up some. As for the stat yeah I maxed swiftness(english official name for it) on my char when...

Yeah they might not be worth it that much, although I still expect them to be better by virtue of still being a single leve turn in. At the very least they'll suck for money, but for xp they should still be the superior choice provided you are limited on leves. That said back in ShB, with the...

Yeah I watched the video so yeah maybe they'll restrict them on the mort important fights and stuff which would make sense. Just that they look super strong in the fights they are allowed, especially the multi summons since there's a decent chance one will not get hit by big aoes and extend the...

It does look like some parts are too easy with the summons and weapon arts and what not, but could just be demo balancing. Looks neat otherwise.

Yeah unless obviously you live in one of the country that supports that version(russia and cis basically). There's a bunch of guides on how to register and play, doesn't look too complicated, and you can rent a VPN for like 2bucks for a month or whatever. There's some free ones but shit isn't...

Finished my goal for the beta which was to clear the story up to 50 and unlock the pass the check another class. Ironically the new char has better gear than the first one since I used it right away(also funny the powerpass basically complete more story quests than needed to unlock it, the whole...

Yeah early on that's definitely an issue with spending too much kenki, but that's an issue with a lot of classes, using up ressources or using something and then figuring out you should have waited 1 or 2 GCDs instead, you can reduce that eventually once you're well used to the class and have...

I wouldn't say you really have to work much harder, it's just weirdly balanced around the burst window where you have to shit out a lot of things quickly so until it's muscle memory it's annoying to play, while SAM is a lot more evened out so you never really have to go crazy. SAM does have its...

They didn't really change how Mudras work that much though, the main change is making them GCD so you don't have to weave them which was horrible if you had bad ping, but you still have to do the same mudra order, in fact it's "worse" compared to say SB, because of the Kassatsu trait which...

It takes ~10hours, which is not a huge amount or anything, but still pretty long. And none of that time is particularly enjoyable. It's purely grinding solo quests, over 50%(70%?) of which is running around and spamming G through dialogues as it doesn't seem there's much point in doing dungeons...

To be fair, it isn't very different than having to run the story every fucking char in PoE, that shit sucks, and it sucks every league. It is much faster though(like 2-4hours if you're speeding through and know what you're doing). I wonder if they sell boosts in this? I think they'd make a...

So far a lot of sidequests are just on the way to the mainquest anyway so I've been doing them, the xp felt pretty similar to main quests too. I assume later you get more stupid sidequests you want to skip? Haven't been pretty far since I rolled a bunch of chars to check their early game out...

You just get Essence of Aetherweaver for 96% additional dmg and you're good, it's pretty cheap if you don't have any from the stuff you looted yourself, like 1k each or whatever on my server so you can buy a nice stack of 50 or so, it's RNG what you get but you'll usually get ~10aetherweaver...

Fisher still has HQ, they're just called Large Catch or whatever they said in the LL. They won't technically count as HQ for the purpose of crafting I assume(CUL stuff mostly but also ALC and GSM every now and then) but otherwise should behave the same, including maybe for leve turn ins but...

Well these fucks decided to try to hotfix the pvp scaling bug and now the 2nd dungeon doesn't work anymore(maybe other stuff don't know), so guess I have to try another class. Edit: Reading reddit they apparently broke several dungeons, as well as Bard and Paladin channel spells. I wonder how...

To be fair you can probably watch someone else. Or just click a stream and leave it in a random muted tab until you get the shit. I played a little bit yesterday, with Endwalker getting delayed I guess I should put some time into this to figure out what I'm going to be playing. Started Bard...

I haven't bothered looking at achievements on this, there's just too many annoying ones and ultimately I don't want to have to play with every lord, or worse, multiple times with the same lord because I didn't get one shit or another. There's also multiplayer achievements which are definitely...

It is like 10bucks normally yeah. They give the game away every now and then too, I got mine for free from Twitch prime or some shit like that. Since there's no sub or anything, there's really no point to the gamepass stuff unless you're using gamepass already.

Yeah I think that's the worst part, people who setup vacation days, since 2weeks isn't much notice to move them depending on where you work and how much of a dick your boss is. The upside is savage doesn't land right in the middle of xmas. I guess Blizzard's move also got messed up in the delay...

Well I don't know how it'll turn out, but spearfishing in its current state is definitely some weird shit they put together in a hurry when they made underwater areas it feels like. New minigame looks interesting but might not be that fun when you're farming if it takes too long or whatever. I...

Oh spearfishing update, it's not just underwater gathering anymore.

Well I don't think they could fix something like instance load in 2 weeks, either the servers will be enough or not. I guess if they're deploying new servers and they're not ready that'd work. Ultimately considering how little they usually need to hotfix/patch, their QA does excelent work so if...

2weeks delay is kinda weird, seems too short to get a lot done, they must have some small things to polish maybe?

Live Letter in a bit over an hour, feel like it's worth mentionning but they'll probably be showing the Launch Trailer. Unlike the previous trailer, which is the ingame intro movie, this one will be a more traditional trailer with ingame cinematics/gameplay, which means it will contain probably...

Prices look similar to BDO. Which I find definitely on the high side, but I also didn't feel like spending that much money anyway. Like I got some costume for my Guardian to get the full underboob style going, and I think I wanted to get the fishing costume for diving but didn't end up buying it...

Wow this looks impressive. I do hope you can't cheese a bunch of stuff with the horse riding, although it seems at least it's limited to the open world parts and I assume you can't mount when in dungeons(including that castle at the end of the video). The part where he was spamming spells at the...

Confirmation for ogres preorder dlc due to bad advertisement setup leak:

Na it's 6 + preorder ogres. Ogres are technically day1 DLC, just free if you preorder(or buy on release week), same as WoC and Norsca.

Yeah every expansion now they have a preorder earring that adds the last 10 levels compared to the previous one(also originally they didn't scale but now they do to your level). It's worth preordering generally just for that, plus you're preordering a mmo expansion so it's not like there's stuff...

Never bought a CE. I'd say if you're into making alts, the HW one is good though since it comes with a Fantasia, so every new char you make gets a fantasia from ARR and one from the HW CE, which is nice to have I guess. But I don't really make alts. Iirc on sale the HW CE was also cheaper than a...

I got one last time from mmorpg.com and another one this time. No real hoop, just logging in, click get key, copy paste key in Steam. I have an old account for that site since they always do mmo giveaways, so old it has my UO guild tag in the name.

It's nice they're announcing they're delaying games they hadn't even announced release dates for to begin with. Like D4 was MAYBE 2023 but it's "delayed"? How does that even work. Sounds like shitty free advertisement announcement. OW2 at least makes a bit of sense as I think people assumed a...

It's like that while leveling. Just pop in, kill the pack, pop out. In maps there's a lot more density but until then it's not worth wasting too much time with it. The gear is also pretty meh unless you get very lucky.

"Ion acknowledges that they should have reacted to player feedback earlier about conduit energy, and knows that they can do better about communicating not only that we are being heard, but why things are not necessarily implemented or changed right away." Pretty sure I've read that a few times...

Quick explore is a bunch of xp on retainers and you don't really need gear for it. That said it takes a fucking long time to level them, iirc last time I reset it took me like 3weeks with 6+ ventures a day. So the boosts are definitely worth it especially if you want capped retainers before EW...
