edited December 2009 in General Discussion
So, it has been made extremely clear what this particular forums opinions are on oracles. I'm not even gonna poke that beehive....it's too scary.

But, what I'm wondering is this: What do people think about the Crusade orders?
I personally use them (mainly to grind my pets) but I rarely see others doing so. Am I just weird in this? What are all your opinions on the things?

NOTICE: I will not be paying attention to those who try to run this back over oracles...we've been there and done that. Everyone knows the general opinion, and if you try to turn the discussion that way, I'm gonna smack you. Possibly with a cinderblock.
I shall dominate the Dreamweaver server through the use of Baked goods...and only baked goods.^^[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Venomancers are Female. Barbarians are male. It will forever be this way. So suck it up and deal with it already.

    I use them when I can or get. During the 2x Exp and droprate events, I did alot of these as well.

    Oracle = 1 mob. Starts at lvl 30. Generally an elite. Oracle 1 and 2 can be soloed at the required level to use it. Higher ones, probably a good idea to be over the monster.

    Crusade Order= Multiple mobs (30+). Typically challenging mobs, but nothing too bad. Items are rewarded (occasionally) as well as the standard payout. Actually costs something to use besides getting the required items to make it.

    Not sure if Oracles give you rep, but crusades do. I just figured it was a less aggrivating way to level than oracles, seeing as:

    1) you can't shell out real coin for them
    2) it takes time, and actual knowledge of multiple mechanics, not just solo-spamming
    3) They really don't start at low levels. the first crusade order is from Level 40 to level 60.
    4) You can eat waffles while doing them, not worry about a line, and grind away from a ton of people (why it would be better for pvp-ers to start them).

    Crusade orders can be done once an hour while oracles can be done every few seconds.

    Crusades have a min and max level range while oracles just have a min range (you can get to lvl 100 killing a lvl 40 mob).

    Crusade orders are bought with in game coin while oracles are bought with gold.


    Crusade orders are fine... too bad they arent more popular or they would be a decent coin sink.

    Justice Orders are from lvl 60 + which you buy for ingame coin average of 20k cost from the Justice envoy NPC.. you get to choose between 5 differents mobs to grind (60~100 of them depending on lvl) you get XP, Sp and 1 to 3 rep. These can only be done once an hour.

    While Crusade Orders A & B start at lvl 40 and vary according to price you pay (3, 6 or 9K coins) to Chenchen. You get a "Wanted quest" book: Kill 50~70 mobs for XP, SP, 2 to 4 rep and an extra surprise sometimes a lucky note, a mantou or a 5 rep tag. These drop from mobs and bosses.

    Combining both of these is a great way to grind and gain extra xp when you dont have any quests. In my opinion they cannot be compared to oracles as they are more like a grind quest than a mini boss kill.

    (I must add tho I hate blazing guardians.. b:angry)
