Nymphadorae Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 You tried Classic and you clearly didn't like it. LIVE will be the same with fast leveling until 105 and then the game "begins". You can try it anyway and have fun, but for top gear in this game, only 2k per month doesn't get you far 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until 105, all the gear that you need is pretty much provided to you. After that you can decide if you wanna spend on your own or not 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draecke Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 as casual player 2k will be enough yeah, anything more serious like try for hero or a self proclaimed pvp god he will need to add a zero to that number of monthly spending and read up on the nefarious cheating that happens as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magistralis Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 (edited) @Davidlong No, this is to mid-top gear. For top-top gear you need more. Edited June 13, 2020 by magistralis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draecke Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 it's easy to check just login on Chronos ask how much cost a dragon bow stage 1 and 2, do same for Naia and then EU / RU have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magistralis Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 (edited) Just to show: For a stage 3, if you buy each dragon claw for 38bi, you will need ~4370000 NCoins that means ~54.650 dollars. If you buy each for 20bi (improbable -near impossible- in the current game situation), you will need ~28.750 dollars. -It doesn't count the other necessary items. (r-gem, elcyum...) If you want to make the math for yourself, use these numbers to avoid too many 0. 1000 = 1T 1 = 1bi 0,002 = 2kk Edited June 13, 2020 by magistralis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your getting a lot of bad feedback here. You do need to spend some money to aquired good gear to be able to compete but no where near the figures people are stating on here. In 4 yrs I estimate I've spent around 7k and I have no problem competing in this game. If you invest in the proper gear that is suited for your character you'll do just fine. Adena is also quite easy to make in the game once you get to know how the economy works. Most of the really expensive items aren't available yet on these servers and only a handful of players have them. So with that said, you could have all the adena in the world but have nothing to spend it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunastariel Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) You dun need a stage 3 dragon weapon to be good, a good player with +12 limited R110 weapon and the correct set up and other gear items can do well in pvp/pve anytime against a player with a super weapon but bad set up and skills. I saw some othells with exalted weapon kill top players in oly before too. Edited June 15, 2020 by Lunastariel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your goal is PVE, yes, $2K is more than enough. But if your goal is PVP and you want to actually matter within a month of playing the game, no, $2K is not enough. Spend it somewhere else.

But yea, if you want to be a tanker, you will have DW cheaper than trying to make it yourself, but for weapons such as bows, fists ... if you want one, you will need to do or pray for a nerf in the class who use them.

Good stuff right here someone outside of this thread might tell you you might need some help. but not here, here, around all these mature adults all is cool Man walks into a brothel determined to blow his wad of cash. He wants to know which is the best woman to "date." We're just pointing him in right direction. (You're there, too, make no mistake.) So yeah, it's both pointless and hypocritical to tell him to leave and go buy flowers for that single, depressed, approaching the end of her biological clock, obese chick with adult acne at his office that needs the attention and would probably marry and worship him until his dying day. His mind is set. We all have better things to do with out time and money...but here we all are anyway. 15 year old game. 20 year old game. Hell, if they manage to keep the lights on for 30+ years, some of the same faces you see now will still be here.

b0uff0s Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 (edited) never suggested anything to anyone friend. I commended on the absurdity of the situation. As a simple observer, I find this behavior odd, even more odd how people have been eased into this as the normal state. I'm long past my enthusiastic days when i could not wait to enter this brothel. Today I'm around periodically coz of some memories, as most of the old players, something this new person does not have. When you take a step back and see it for what it is, you might see things with a different lens. Not necessarily as i see things but different nonetheless. And on that note, the beautification of the brothel by presenting a human wreck as the only alternative option isn't really an argument for the brothel now is it? It's more of a fallacy. If i cared enough to suggest something on his question i would indeed suggest he does not "invest" his money here and instead try actual gambling where eventually he could get a small portion of his money back every now and then, and i present this suggestion out of concern for a fellow human being who is cautious enough to ask information.

Top geared othel can also murder you with an R grade weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
