    Running with friends and starting squads helps but nobody wants to feel like a burden to their higher APS friends or farm far less effectively than someone who spent an equal amount on their gear farms in the same span of time.

    LOL. Lets just have my TT60 cleric get the same farming potential as my r9 archer or r8 sin. After all... I threw thousands of gold at my archer and hundreds of gold at my sin just so they can have the same damage potential as my TT60 cleric, who I probably spent a single gold on. Sounds like a great idea.
    1. If I kill you; do something about it yourself, don't go complaining to my wife.
    2. If you have less kill counts then me, don't expect me to take pk advice from you.
    3. If you are hiding behind an alt, don't expect me to acknowledge your existence.

    The faction trials seem to be made for non-aps users. Skill damage gets amplified by what there? 4 times? The money isn't too bad either I hear, but it takes more time than most people are willing to invest and you need a fair amount of people to finish it in a reasonable time (or at all).

    It will need to gain popularity since it is still fairly new, but it's the only hope for non-apsers and non-casters (or mid-geared casters since those aren't really wanted for nirvana either) to do some decent farming, I suppose.

    Except it doesn't help non aps users who prefer to remain factionless.... :(

    Need to see the cleric guide for questions, comments, or concerns? Just copy and paste the link.

    Even if you somehow got your cleric's TT60 weapon to +12 for free, it is still inferior to an unrefined r8 glaive. A r8 cleric's damage potential is lower than a r8 sin's potential since sins have naturally higher DPS. I'll admit that I wasn't clear about what I meant by spending similar amounts but that comparison is just... LOL. Here is what I meant when I said similar amounts. With the way things are now, a r9 +12 sin in full APS gear has a farming/damage potential astronomically higher than a r9 +12 archer wearing the same gear because of the advantage a faster weapon has with the nonlinear APS system. Since the APS system has no chance of being fixed, workarounds like the nine trials buff are currently the best alternative to reaching something resembling balance.

    I've never been inside Nirvana.

    And it isn't just APS nitpickers - people also prefer certain classes no matter what.

    I don't bother answering shouts when they end it with "pm class". That tells me they don't wont a seeker heh.

    Funny, on LC seekers seem to be far more popular than clerics... b:surrender
