I got my Twitch drops, after I missed the first 4 and realized I had stupidly linked my Twitch to my NCsoft account instead of Steam. And I really just wanted the appearance change coupon to fix my guys 3 foot long fucking eyelashes. Luckily, they gave us another one cuz of the queue.

My assassin is Caine on Israphel, only lvl 18 so far. Voldeth was 36 when I took a break, he should be max level by now, lol.
Did you do anything, like log out / in on Twitch? I've had all but the headphones claimed for several hours now, and Steam is linked, so I'm at a loss on how to actually get them.

No, I was logged into twitch and watching a drops stream the whole time. They come in a purple gift box on the left side of your mini map. You could try going to character select and back or relogging. I don't know of any other way to massage it. Have you logged into NC specifically logging in by hitting the Steam icon, and verifying it's linked to Twitch there?



On a side note, this is one of the most retarded things I've ever seen. And yes, I took the photo to complete the fucking thing.

Got it, I had to have both Steam and Twitch connected, as soon as I connected Twitch I got them.

Also, I had to take a screenshot of that puzzle as well.

Still checking frequently to try and get on the server, still a no go, so just been tinkering around on Triniel. Sucks that founders pack rewards I guess are character/server bound so have not collected anything yet.

One thing I really like about this game is that everything I do leads to some sort of progression. Never feel like I'm wasting my time.

Glad has been piss easy fun, much much more enjoyable playing with low ping. Will hit 45 soon and then will level two more up this weekend. Chanter/SM after my glad.

Don't forget:

Daevas,

For those of you waiting in a queue for an existing server, or those of you who are joining just now, please consider creating your character on a recommended server. Server transfers will be available in the future starting on October 14th and you'll have a chance to move between servers within the same faction at that time. As a reminder, all instanced content including dungeons are available cross-server.

Note: When we introduce the server transfer feature, we will add restrictions to ensure Early Access players may only transfer between Early Access Servers, and not commercial launch servers.

Additionally,
Server Transfers will initially be free during this period!

I don't know what's worse, your 12 yr old edgelord names, or the fact that Milkjugs was already taken...
I am not surprised at all that Milkjuggs was taken considering all the 100% chest characters I've seen.

I don't think Milkjugs was taken, but sometimes you just need to go with double G's... nah, was just another edgelord name of one of my other old WoW characters from 2004-2005 or so.

Im having fun, but something I am trying to spread around and was not mentioned at all on the preorder package page. Subs are tied to 1 server. If you roll on another server, you have to buy another sub for that. its not just your account subbed to the game for some asinine reason. First thing I have seen that is monstrously greedy to me. And supposedly they will off free transfers on the 14th for people to moev to their friends, but will they tell them their sub was only good for that server that made a character on?

I tested this myself. I am on israphel us east. Made a asmo on triniel, still on US east and it had no sub. Which is a pretty big thing with market access and remote storage plus other things.

I'm fairly certain they'll move your sub with you for the free transfers. Doing otherwise would be a serious bait and switch and they would get fucking roasted. But, they are greedy fucks. Pay a fucking sub, yet still limited to how many dungeon runs you can do. Even if you pay a DOUBLE SUB. Just, why?

Loot is individual, armor/jewelry is any class. Unique weapon drop is rare chance, then rolls on all classes weapons, (and jewelry) for a soulbound item. Why?

Game is really pretty. So nice to see killer graphics again.

Not having a sub doesn't seem to be an issue early game. Haven't claimed my founders pack yet, so no sub. I imagine the sub is much more useful at the endgame, but the FTP players have a lot to play here.

It is a bit worse than that. Subs are server locked. Outfits are server locked. Passes are -character- locked. Alts have diminishing returns built in; Dungeons have a set number of runs before you start getting less loot, and that number is shared between all characters. If you make more than 4 characters, then the 5th onward will only get 50% of loot the first 4 get. Thankfully I have zero desire to make so many alts, haha.

From what I've seen so far, you would want to get your Alts strong enough to run Krao Cave on Conquest for the 200k unbound Kinah, and also be able to clear Nightmare each week. I've heard some people say that you can place all (or some) of your Mains gear in Server Storage and have your Alts spend their own resources on enhancing (haven't tried that yet).

I find it odd that the Exploration (easy) version of Draupnir drops the exact same loot at the exact some chance as the Conquest version of it, unless I overlooked something. So I guess the play is to farm that shitty boss for gold gear, then move on the Vakron for new armor and Krao for accessories. That should allow you to start running Transcendence for Arcana cards to finish building out your character.

Ran with several World Boss trains yesterday, and I'm convinced that while you will always get a chest, the contents of that chest are weighted by your damage. I only ever got Blues, Greens and mostly Artwork Scraps. Though the Blues will be useful for Supply Requests as they reward a nice amount of Abyss Points (I dislike pvp so I don't do Abyss, unless Asmo won access to the locked areas).

I DO like how everything is worthwhile to do, all the open world kill quests drop stuff that will make your character stronger over time (souls). Each of those souls will slowly level up the Genus Insight to give your Account passive stat increases and unlock the ability to roll for better and better stats.

Raes Raes I'll send off guild requests for my 2 characters, its funny that guild membership is character based, so each of your characters need to be invited.
