  1. It looks like a reroll is in my future. Appreciate suggestions for which is the best tank to solo up, especially at the higher levels when mobs get harder to kill. Cheers!
  2. @Hime Thanks for replying. I would like to also ask please implement ways to get Chaos Essence and Chaos (Dual Class) Essence in game, instead of spending arm/leg for NCStore purchase of those items. It's crazy that we can change Revelation Skills, but we can't change Class Type using adena/SP or similar. Being able to change class type should be a normal free feature, especially since nerfs come along, some announced, others not so much, that make it harder for some types of the same class to play as efficiently. For example right now I hear that Tyr Titan and some Doom have very little problems levelling solo, but Duelist and GK now have it much harder through no fault of the players. It seems grossly unfair to change the game adversely to the people who play those classes only to then pile on by charging them 2400 NCoin for Chaos Essence. I'd appreciate a better solution. And please don't make it something like needing 200+ Ether to craft a Chaos Essence pack at 60% chance. I'm asking for a new functionality with Agent of Chaos Hardin, or one of the Awakening NPCs at Tomb of Souls. A simple solution to fix a thorny problem.
  3. Spot on, good post. People who usually play slower leveling classes can switch to ones that level much faster and then switch back before Red Libra ends. You'd think some of these clans that are actively recruiting high level support classes would be in favor of Red Libra. A Yul or Titan can get to 107 in a day or so with 200% XP scrolls. Faster if they can max out all XP options. Then change to healer or iss. If they ran Red Libra and boosted server settings for XP/Vitality, you would see many more new 110+ support characters that month, I bet.
  4. The server is full, but those aren't all individual players as you know. Every 6 characters logged in probably represent 1 person because of the event. Saw someone bragging the other day about logging in all 4 of his computers. Or maybe he was complaining, because he didn't win any big prizes yet.
  5. Is that the melee lag still, or a stealth nerf? Or just a nerf to VR? Made a few changes, including adding more P.def (normal and attribute defense), but still same results, only slightly slower. I'm not killing fast enough and my HP bar plummets when attacked by multiple mobs at once. Guess it's time to swap from GK to Titan and see if that helps.
  6. Isn't it twice a year or something like that? Maybe 3? Last year was a deviation, which explains the long wait in between.
  7. And what the hell is up with all of the disconnections?
  8. Left the game a few months ago. (Covid economy crap forced me to work multiple jobs.) Back for a spell as one of the businesses that I worked for closed for good. Anyway, getting to the point of my post, before the update I had no problems soloing just about everywhere with my 110/110 Tyr GK. Most of my gear is middle/low of the pack. I use an Enhanced Shadow Fists and +8 R99 Set with Rare accessory pack, Insanity, Rind Leather shirt, level 7 (or maybe it's 8 ) protection talisman, etc. Not top of the line in every category, but decent. All my main skills are enchanted +15 or higher, mostly Break, but some Focus. All of important Forgotten Power skills are Level 6 minimal, with defense level 7 and attack level 11. I had no problems soloing before, but now I almost died twice in Primeval of all places. WTF is going on, mate? Did they nerf GK stealthily, or did I miss an event where they gave out special items to help kill buggers now? What gives?
  9. In 3 months all EU ppl will quit just because they can't get Cursed swords???
  10. I doubt it merges, but if it does, 1 - 2 years is a long time. Most of the people asking for it will probably get banned for some infraction and quit the game. At any rate, IF the servers merge into one, then we can discuss changes at that time. 1 - 2 years from now.
  11. They should change the description. But the effect should stay the same. It's a "tornado" after all.
  12. No, no and hell no. Leave Chronos as it is.
  13. Depends. Are they replacing it with something better? If so I stay. If not I quit.
  14. The problem there is even if you get Exalted equipment it won't be good enough to solo hunt with a Wynn even with buffs once you get 103+. The low adena drop rates and lack of quests will just bleep you off even more. One way or another everyone is driven to the L2Store. Either to participate in events in hopes of getting a prize that makes you rich/gives you equipment you can use, or to sell the L2Store items to other players for adena. I don't want to discourage you, but that's a really steep mountain you're about to climb. I don't know when it happened, but at some point this game became one that you can only play if you have disposable income. If you go into it not wanting to spend any money, you're going to hit a wall. Even if you spend a little money in L2Store, when you research how much it costs, for example, to upgrade a basic R110 weapon to an Enchanted R110 weapon to a Bloody or Dark R110 weapon then finally to a Limited weapon -- we're talking several tens of billions of adena -- well, you see why some people wonder if any of it is worth it. Yes, lots of people still play this game, but very few play it without reaching for their wallets, even if it's only once every 6-8 months when a really good "event" happens.
  15. This is why quests are valuable to the game. Quests with actual rewards and great back stories like the good old days. Not talking about lame Exalted quests that only get you to the mid-level of mediocrity. We have none of that now. Not sure what the point of playing is right now. Or is bleeding eyes a goal?
  16. I bet when they updated they coded it in a way to show that all of the characters already received it. Nothing surprises me any more with this game. It's too bad. Up to you how to proceed next. You can either buy temp R99 weapon and armor from NCStore, or use those Ncoins instead to do RMT Light and buy stuff in shop to sell to other players. I don't recommend selling ncoin. Trust no one in this game.
  17. Fix? No, this is working as intended. Sorry for those of you who haven't realized that after all of these years. Some events will be good with "better than usual" drop rates, but others will be the usual -- and by usual, mean horrible, terrible, and meant to grift you out of your money.
  18. Bladedancer is an ISS. They deal less damage than a Tyr, generally speaking, unless you have trillions in adena and can kit them properly. But if you could do that, you wouldn't be complaining about your Tyr. +7 R99 duals are kind of a waste of money, unless they're Bloody and 300 element. The Exalted duals are just as good. +6 R110 is only good if Enchanted status and you have 450 attribute. But here you want at least Bloody too. That's probably way out of your price range. I probably would have gone with Enhanced Shadow Dualswords. What you want are weapons that give you as many boosts as possible and include some type of PVE damage boost. Enhanced Shadow duals also boost other areas that help you stay alive longer, like HP, and kill faster. They don't have to be the top weapons for PVE. Instead of Heavy, you should use Eternal Light. Better stats all around for faster killing. The p.def you get with Heavy isn't the difference maker you think it is at this level. Remember, at this level your goal isn't to take hits. It's to kill fast. Weapon and armor aren't everything. There are other ways to tweak your character. The easiest one is to join a Level 6 or higher clan. Those clans all give little stat boosts whenever their leader or officers are logged in the game. If you click on another character you can actually see what boosts they're getting from their clan advent.
  19. Terms like "average" and "high" are always relative and deliberately ambiguous. "High" in relation to what? Specific % should be used always. Otherwise, don't trust NCSoft. Ever. "High" means low. "Average" means low.
  20. Be glad that you at least made it to 110. I know players that are a few levels below that even after the extended XP event. In 2021 you'll catch up to the other guys. 2021.
  21. Ok, but does it shut up the heroes? Maybe after the first 20 shouts are used up, heroes get charged 1B per letter for every shout after that. Or charge them 250,000,000 soul and spirit stones per letter, because God knows, all of the crap they spew drains my spirit and my soul.
  22. Most quests were deleted. Once you hit 99, it's exalted crap. For the last one you need to kill 160,000 mobs and reach level 110. I wouldn't bother with doing anything else.
