Yes. When I played it there wasnt that much that the store had to offer. By now im sure Its loaded with things that you could blow a months salary on. I quit when i found out i had to spend money to keep my loli a loli.

Excellent character creation, armor/outfit design options, lots of fun non conventional things to do.. Excellent music.

Troublesome combat system, few gameplay styles are viable, and a heavy reliance on cash shop. You can have fun with it if you treat it as more of an adventure than a competition.

Don't waste your time on this game...it becomes both a time sink and a money sink, and you would be better off with $15 a month on WoW than playing this. This is coming from someone who's played both games more than he should have.

The story is at least better than "hurr durr go kill 10 mobs for us plz".

Im just hoping they wrap up the loose ends by boat 6 because the story up till the end of boat 4 makes very little sense.

Boat 3 in particular is a MASSIVE clusterfuck of loose ends.

>> No.6692835

Its fun, but I hate how the combat is dominated by a select few builds that are only viable after grinding for so long.

Want to ranged fight? Better be Elf. Want to melee? Better be Giant. Want to be useless? Go Human.

Want to destroy everything in the game solo without the need for other players, actually doing damage than anyone else in the game? Summon 2 story Golems, a pet that can do more damage than ANYONE else in the game, even melee characters meant for the same purpose.

All I am saying is that Nexon should take SOME effort to balance their game. You dont see a problem with a PET outclassing everything in the game 95% of the time? Or that its one of the easiest skills to rank and fund?

Like I said, I play it and have fun doing all sorts of things, but when it comes to dungeons and PvP, the balance is atrocious, and you have all these faggots bragging about how pro they are to the people just trying to have fun.

Well I had a bad first experience with the game. As you know, the life skills require tons of AP usually, which in return require high combat skills to grind out. I really just wanted to do crafting stuff, but I decided, hey why not just pick a combat skill and roll with it?

I wanna do melee. "Well you had better rank all these skills, buy these expensive armors, and reroll Giant."

Okay then, ranged. "If you arent Elf, you suck. Also, you need to get these many, many life skills that require you to have another combat style anyway."

Okay, Magic? "Sure, whenever you can get tons of money to fund it, or another combat skill to raft."

Alchemy...? "Sure go for it, but everyone will think you are a FOTM overpowered douchebag."

Well I wanted to be Human because I found melee and raged appealing and I dont have the time or money to level two characters, but everyone I talk to tells me that I will just horrible at both.

I considered just going Giant, but they got some sily limitations. Feels like the game is quite biased in favor of Elves.

Hotglue didn't do anything notable on Mabi. They were just one of several /jp/ guilds. All the other guilds fell apart and the remainder went on to other MMOs, like SMT imagine.

It was when Aika came out and hotglue owned everyone the entire beta that people came down with ass-explody.

For easymode dungeons, maybe. Peaca intermediate actually requires cooperation from every styles of combat, except maybe for melee. You want golems to keep the monsters pinned against the wall, life drain for doing decent damage against monsters with 1000 def and 50% prot, blaze and ice spear for crowd control, barrier spikes to keep everyone safe, and finally a bunch of elven archers with campfires for 2X ranged damage.

Now, as for everything else in the game, yeah. A single golem would allow you to solo most of the dungeons out there.

Pic related, what a level 500 can achieve by spamming harder dungeons with golems.

I can't think of any skill where 25 ap won't get you several ranks in it except in the numbered ranks. It's plenty to grind the skills up over the 3 week period before you rebirth and get another 25 AP.

The grinding of life skills takes longer and is harder than getting the AP. It doesn't take any real amount of skill to get 25 battle levels and have a total of 50 AP plus age up AP.

That is more than enough.

>> No.6693642
