Make sure you're accounting for all the auxiliary buffs too - draughts, perfumes, Vell's, and so on. Double-check your crystal setup as well. With an actually optimal configuration, you're looking at roughly +50 All AP and another +73 Extra Monster AP, especially once you factor in Kharazad accessories for the JIN crystal slots.

That said, be ready to sit at Hex for a long time. Even after that, once you push into the ~1350 AP range, you're basically locked into Tungrad and DSR for another 300-500 AP before Orbita becomes realistic. That's the real bottleneck. People constantly complain that endgame players have "nothing to do," but the reason mid-game players struggle so hard to catch up is because the AP cap changes absolutely gutted mid-game grind spots. Progression there is slower than it's ever been, and it's what actually creates the gap everyone keeps arguing about. You're locked into about 1.5-2.5bil/hr spots for MONTHS.
Thank you! You know it’s funny, I never thought I’d be worrying about this level due to time limitations. So I basically ignored it and just played the game slow and concentrated on everything life skills and the home manor stuff had to offer. Now that I am there, I’m clueless even though I’ve played the game since start!
I’m getting all the crystals fixed (one major problem) and trying to figure out the best combo for my artifacts (all out attack or something that uses irridecants) Ash Forrest had been good due to the Debo drops, I usually get one every hour and a half. The prices have dropped but they are still and easy 300 mill if I need to sell them quick.
It is odd to be locked into zones now compared to the past. I like the zones we have, but it would be nice for an expansion of them. I’d be happy if they upgraded ones we have. I’ve always liked Saunrils it it’s just a waste of time due to silver/hr

I like seraph a lot, except for the BSR mechanic. I hope they cave and change it to succ/awakening.
i wrapped up the season pass with her this morning and i do like her more now than I originally did, but being shackled to that BSR buff is something they definitely gotta change. I like the concept behind it, but it really hurts if you try to do much of anything outside of high mob density areas.

The ball was even more pathetic than normal. The only 2 people I know that still actively play are just 2 weary korean small business owners paying some pinoy to grind crons so they can log in and click a couple enhancement attempts a week.

They try to talk to me about bdo when we are playing actual fun games and it's just cringe. Plot is completely lost. I hope it dies soon.
