Ok so I been playing here for a month got a few toons going none of them in the higher lvls yet...

My observations on the differences of the servers

First off... The difficulty lvl is way down... OMG!!!! First time I went through many of these bosses I needed help from 3 or 4 people 10-15 lvls higher than me on most. Now I can either solo or get one other person (although fb 39 I'll be asking for serious help again, I hate the exploding chickens) around same lvl to do it. And the fb's were no joke either. Unless you had a charm or a dedicated cleric to heal just the tank he was sure to die as well as the subtank for some of the bosse's aoe's.


Second.. Everything is named differently.. I swear I know what it is but I can't remember because Eunice is now named Jou Hanshi (or w/e) wb's (werebeasts) are now named barbarians... bosses are... you get the idea.


Third the players... Asian servers people are to busy lvling to pk every single person they see... Here Oh I am lvl 30+ I am gonna run around kill people... Worst one has got to be a lvl 60 something bm come up (out of nowhere still don't know who he is) and just start hitting me on my lvl 33 toon (at the time) and I sat down and asked are you done yet... is this supposed to hurt??? where did you learn to play this game??? If you can't do it in one or 2 hits don't try to do it at all... why don't you go lvl??? (then some member from a guild not sure if I can say which one kills him and says stop picking on the low lvls, and that was classy). The few and far between pkers on the other server would use the best quality gear they could get there hands on... Would generally be in the hundreds lvl range, would carry a bunch of dolls (called guardians here) and have full charms. Never went after people questing or low lvls although 60 and up did make you free game.... Oh and here is the thing I miss... They would stop there pking to help out low lvl players... fb's, bosses, quest help that sort of thing. Why can't people play with a little civility???


Finally... When I left the asian server Oracle... It was damn near empty.... And still had ungodly lag.... I come here and I only lag in adc (archosaur) west. thats a breath of fresh air. And the fact that there are actual people to play with. Good or bad it makes things more interesting.b:victory



Have fun all

Cya in game

    Was it another QQ Thread? b:puzzled

    The only differences are(based on thought you were talking about PW-MY):

    1. Players use bots and situation went out of control , me got feeling even admins just ignoring that fact . I was trying to lvl up North Archo so picture was near gates on left 4 Veno bots divided into pairs where farming ghols. On right side same scheme but 8 bots total. watching them was hularious.

    2.Almost all players has rank 8 equipments and almost all of them either +11 or +12 .

    3.Boutique has any item you wish for including all quest 2* items for lvl 4and lvl 6 crafts.

    4. PvP due to all above just based on who saw who 1st and range of weapons since most times it requires 1 shot for kill.

    5.Gold prizes slightly higher but if PWI continues it's policy they will be equal pretty soon.

    P.S That's why i am sad when i see that PWI becoming PW-MY in bad way b:surrender

    The lag was caused for the distance to the oracle server. You would always lag even if you were the only one in the server.

    the names are different here because the asian server cant speak english very well. good examples = level 100 weapons, agamatank twin tigris = striking dragon here, wieldsky inride =punishing thunder.... what kind of crack they smoked, i dont know.

    I miss the Malay server... I miss Eunice too :(

    I hope that's not true about the PvP server you're on. When the Tideborn are released I plan to move over to Lost City to rejoin my Malay server friends as an Assassin.

    I knew generally in the Malay server random pking was very rare... I have a feeling that once I hit 30, things won't be fun :o. Least I'll have a stealth skill haha

    One has to have a charm for just about everything over there?
    Dang, I'm glad the difficulty is down over here in that respect, I would have quit a long time ago if all my allowance went to charms. I'd also be very sad if everything was sold via the cash shop, it's really no fun when all the actual playing is taken out...

    EDIT: Honestly, unless the rate of RPK has gone up since I last looked around about a month ago, life after 30 isn't as bad as it's made out to be. Unless I'm just jaded and callus. There are some days I don't get PKed at all anymore; not that I'm complaining.

    The post was just about my opinion of the differences there and here and I said at the end that it makes things more interesting.

    The game started in china. Then spread to Japan, Korea, and Malaysia (all of which being on the asian continent). However Malaysia was the first attempt at the game in english. That was what I mean by asian servers... I didn't think I would have to explain that. But thanks for pointing out the obvious.


    Yes there were botters on the other version and I have seen them here. Just not in large numbers. I would also see so and so banned for whatever reason about a dozen times a day there as well. Have yet to see that prompt here.

    My opinion on the pvp is that a majority of the pkers are weak. compared to what I am used to. 4 out of 5 of every individual who randomly pk's me takes way more than 4 or 5 hits... And most times I do one of two things. Either A sit down and let them just whack away at me and laugh... ORR I wait till I get down to half then ask if they are ready. If they say yes I just come out guns blazing and that generally leads to a close fight. Each day I am attacked a minimum of 5 times a day. Only 3 (thats ever) of those have been strong enough to 1 hit me or 2 hit me I'm not saying they don't exist just few and far in between.

    I do agree that IM in any free game can get way out of control. However 10 gold and I can buy almost everything I need for the next month... Much better than other games I have played and as a minimum my IM was about $50-100 USD a month (required to survive by endgame) and where I talk to guildies pushing $350k USD over a 1 year period as the powerhouses in the game.

    To be honest I love questing. I find it very soothing to just relax at the end of the day or on the weekend and go through them... This game has something around 2000 quests I believe by endgame. Thats enough to keep you busy... And even then IM is not required to do it. Although I enjoy enhancing my game with it. I enjoy pvp servers. They do make things interesting. And I always make it a point to never **** with someone unless they hit me first. I play with respect for anyone and everyone. Even if I get pked in one hit. Just yesterday I saw him coming and said can you wait a second while I kill this mob... he stood back mob was dead I said ok go ahead... And Bang one hit... GOOD SHOT!!!!b:victory (granted health was low but still).

    I'v seen this on pwi.
    I observered two venos, both petless, unresponsive to communication from other players. It looked like one veno was a bot just attacking the closest mob, while the other veno was being controlled by someone.. picking up loot and helping the bot veno finish its mob. Once one of the venos left the spot, the other went on for alittle bit.. still killing mobs, but not picking up drops. Eventually the veno stopped attacking all together untill the second veno returned to the spot. All this was going on while i was standing outside Arch west, asking the venos why they were acting like that. No response.

    The bot situation is going to become worse with the patch I'm afraid. Giving people the ability to select the closest mob is great for the players, but it's also great for the botters. b:surrender

    I sure hope the GM's are ready and equipped for it!

    The lag on that server... Sheesh. It was almost unplayable for me since it was so horrible. b:surrender
