    Yes, this is a short rant.

    @#$%&#@#%$

    Since when were level 100+ uber end game gears required on level 97 seekers so that they could just solo the mobs in the exp room?! Am I missing something here? My old usual weapon was a Dimension Breaker + 8, however I've been trying to sell it lately and I've been using an OHT sword I crafted instead. Yeah sure the attack isn't great, but the stats are ok and it makes a decent temporary weapon until I can raise the funds to upgrade to a higher level sword.

    Yet with that weapon alone I've been running through FCC with squads and had no issues, been doing big pulls and dropping the mobs flat quick with vortex. A guy in WC was asking for levels 89-99 for an exp room in FCC, 350k a spot but free for seekers (For the need, I assume). I messaged him saying I was a level 97 seeker and I would like to go. He then asks if I'd pay. I messaged back saying if it was necessary I wouldn't mind paying. Then he asked me to link my weapon. I asked him what he meant to make sure, and he linked back a random 100+ rank daggers + 7.

    I had my Dimension Breaker in my inventory at the time and figured I'd just link that back wonder why he even wanted me to. Then I get no reply and no invite. What happened there? I don't get it. I could take a freaking npc sword in there and drop those mobs if I didn't have my OHT one, just so long as I had Bloodpaint. So yeah, Seekers beware, you're now required to link your weapons for FCC and unless you're an 80+ with R9 you're not going to get a squad. -_-

    is ur +8 dimension breaker the 2 socket one in AH o.o cause i was thinking of buying that

    I find plenty of FC runs, even with people buying heads b:cute

    I'm jelly, I can't find em because of the abundance of head's buyers here. SO I usually form my own on my sin, considering how many teles and time I spend. Tt usually costs me about the same amount of money as doing the run myself. But at least if i do the run myself, I don't have to worry as much about scammers, and don't have to deal with people saying one thing in world chat and then doing something like changing the level range once I've already paid because they don't want to use any more teles. =_= I mean I black list them afterwards, but would still rather not waste the money on ppl like that. Would rather waste coin on a fail than a scammer any day.

    LOL I don't even need to read past the first few posts.... TOO HILARIOUS.

    ALL SEEKERS! CALLING ALL SEEKERS! You want FREE FCs? Come to HARSHLANDS! Seriously... people are BEGGING over world chat for you! You're lvl 85+? Great!! So you can do a full pull? Only a half pull? Oh well... you'll do!

    That's just LAUGHABLE.... maybe we're lacking seekers in Harshlands or something... but seekers get such a free ride here XD Sit around Snowy Village for an hour and you'll likely to get at least 2-3 FREE FC exp rooms... all the HEAD YOU CAN HANDLE.

    Just sayin'. How sad.... sorry for you other servers with the whole linking thing.. quit them, join us XD

    I absolutely love how everyone assumed I live/ level off FCC mobs and heads, when I even said in my own original post I had been running through full FCCs. I messaged him because he said it was free for my class, figured I didn't care so much if I absolutely had to pay because it's fairer on the whole squad anyway.

    Even if I did, you have absolutely no say in how other people level. I've been here since 2008 open beta, my Venomancer on HT got to 94 via hard grinding and justice quests. This time around I decided I didn't want to spend a year plus trying to catch up to friends and enjoy the end game content. I might not have leveled the old school way on my seeker, but to hell with you people who are so narrow minded. I play games to enjoy them, not to breathe down the necks of people who decide to play differently than I do.

    Not to derail the original post. But when people ask for FCC lvl 95+, that means anyone above 95, including 95, right? I saw a few people selling heads for lvl 95+, naturally i was interested in buying it for my main.

    You see he reached lvl 104, and too lazy to reach 105. So i thought, excellent chance, i am in range. Everyone replies that my lvl is too high b:shocked. Am I missing something about "95+"?

    Back to the main topic, i saw the same wc on sanctuary, probably referring to the same one i saw. As people have mentioned it is sad. Today for example we did delta for bh, stage 3. We had no sin b:sad, no bp. We had no barb b:shocked, woe be to dding people. We had an awesome possum seeker. I never checked his gear, usually i am curious as to how people build their characters, but he did an awesome job, that i felt "what ever he has, is great". We had a wizzy b:dirty.

    Point being, don't get taken in, when people ask me to link my weapon for vana runs, for 5 aps squad, i never join that squad. A bm sparks, does hf, the other does gs+spark, 1 sin does subsea and the boss is dead. Maybe a second round of hf+gs is needed. But in this whole story, the weapon from a bm helps, but our greater role is the hf, gs, subsea being timed with sparks. Doesn't really matter what aps, refines the bms have, if the sins are good b:cute. Just have to time well, and timing doesn't come from refines sadly. Moral of the story as people have said, if someone asks you to link, don't squad, 96% of the time they will harbour deep suspicions about you and your play style.

    and you yourself assumed FCC squads now also needs weapon linking.

    Ever thought maybe the person who ad for that FCC got many PMs and when chatting with you suddenly they already got full members so they just ignore you? (and prob several others too)

    This thread made me giggle, but actually it's kinda sad.

    I don't buy fcc. I wish ppl stopped selling the damn place. There would be more squads forming for fcc, more squads for bh, more pq in 60~80 (hopefully without cheating with high lvl mains in squad). I don't see the point of buying a toon to 100 with tab-attack, just to solo-sell fcc or have that toon sit around at lvl 100

    I refuse to go with squads asking for weapon link, or that ask for specific aps. Ofc, I do link my +12 r9 daggers so they regret they ever asked.

    Still takes 30-45 minutes and I have 5 100+ toons that I would like to do all my morai quests on, so no, I still have no time for fcc.

    1) 3 or 4 man squad all 90~100 (barb + archer + me as sin + sometimes bm) = 20~25 min runs. That was like 1 year ago, so +10 weaps were still uncommon, rank stuff was super rare except for lvl60 items, run was till the giant snowboss. Dude, you're doing something wrong if your run takes that long just till exp room. This might be the effect of searching squads for hours when any lvl90+ should be able to pull fcc with a cleric, and any lvl90+ HA should be able to do it without a healer. Lazy scared ppl are just lazy and scared b:surrender

    2) If you have so little time, wtf do you need/want a 6th lvl100+ for ? It will just leave you even less time for the 7th while you have to do an extra set of dailies/quest chains.

    3) daily = can be done each day =/= must be done each day. I think you're a little to stressed over a game b:chuckle

    +100, true words! If the run is not enjoyable, then no matter how pro they are, it becomes boring and uninteresting ... the most fun i had was with cool, funny people, dying like noobs 6 times in bh 51 for silly, yet entertaining stuff.

    If you don't have time to do a fc run than you should not be playing pwi in the first place. and if you ask me yes people are lazy to buy heads to where my level 96 seeker has issues finding fcs at his level and instead I find people selling fc heads for my level range.

    That's like saying "Hey, I know you got a job and a life and all, but if you can't dedicate 14 hours a day to this game, you shouldn't enjoy any of your interests at all".

    HL has been going downhill on the selling FC rooms, more and more people have been making squads. Even BEFORE heads were sold, FC squads were hard to find - Wasting 30+ teles for a barb or a cleric.

    Firstly: You are officially the best assassin I know. Marry me.

    Secondly: You solve this issue by capping the level of FC. You get the quest at 75. That's where they should cap the bloody instance. Do that, and you will see PQ, you will see BH 29-51, and you'll see people actually forming squads for cultivations again.

    I had to solo (on my 100 Psychic) every single BH for my venomancer, my Seeker, AND my wizard. Every single one. I couldn't even get a squad, that's how bad it is.

    Thirdly: Linking weapons in GENERAL is a pain in the ****. I dislike it during any instance. Back in my day (I'm an old ****, I still remember pre-genies) we didn't care who had +12. It was about surviving the freaking instance and getting things done in there, not about how fast it went. You know how we had fast squads? We knew what the h3ll we were doing, that's how.
    I couldn't care LESS how fast any of my instances go unless I'm in a rush. I'm here to get something done. Your +12 can kiss my **** if you don't like it--I simply won't run with you. If you don't take your time and enjoy the game, that's your own freaking fault.
    They made fun of me because I wasn't a R8 Psychic...and then came third cast. It's not funny anymore.

    Since when does running FCC take 14 hours. b:shocked..?

    And meh, I gotta agree with Escorian here. Imo you either have the time, or you just don't level. But that's coming from someone who started playing this game early. I go by the mentality of working for your stuff. Not just flat out charging zen and buying everything you want. But that's whole another topic...


    @Myumyu No clue how old you are but I don't see where Reikara said *F U all*. You're reading some things into there that are just wrong.

    It depends a bit. For example in my case, I want my Archer to 100 because all the gear on my sin would fit on my Archer, except the dagger. And all of it is 99+, except my Band from Heaven's Jail, my Energetic Robe: Wraithgate, my Warsoul of Earth and my Heaven Shatterer.

    In my case, the reason I'm leveling my archer comes down to having reached the goal I figured was impossible on my archer, so I figure I'll get him to 100 to see how 100 is on an Archer.

    Sadly, I find myself stuck on 93 because there's barely any actual FCC squads and the ones that there are, only seem to have slots for pullers, healers and single target DDs.
    I'm also an old ****, if you look at it like that.

Most annoying are those that act all nice, and behind your back talk about how everyone should be 5 aps or they are **** (i.e. I am too).

    I would guess there's a few reasons for it. For one, you have absolutely ridiculously epic gear, which to people tends to equal "has lots of spare in-game wealth". After all, why would you +12 your armors if you can survive with +11 or +10?

    And the whole sin DPS thing is just because people don't do the actual math. Even if they do the actual math, they tend to misinterpret it, or only view it from a single aspect. And if you don't do the math, then it'll look like this: Everyone is 4-5 aps. Thus, 4-5 aps must be how you get the best DPS. Thus, this guy with +12 R9 and 2.86 dps must suck. Damn, he should change cultivations! Also, even among the people who do the actual math and interpret it well, I've seen some really weird things, like insisting that R9 is **** because G15 Nirvana can potentially be better, or the opposite. Or insisting that anything but G15 or R9 is ****, because G15 and R9 are better.

    Being that I'm an f2p merchant with decent gear, I tend to get a different kind of negative attention: I've been told that having R8 means I'm a cash shopper. It's rather sad to see that when I finally reach a goal I, too, once considered impossible, the response I tend to get from people who are like what I was in the past, tell me it's impossible and that I must've cheated by cash shopping.
    I am Olba. Not Ol, not Baze nor Blaze. And even less would I go by Olblaze. Please, take a second to read a person's username.
    If you see b:cute be sure to take a second, calm look at anything I said.

A guy in WC was asking for levels 89-99 for an exp room in FCC, 350k a spot but free for seekers (For the need, I assume). I messaged him saying I was a level 97 seeker and I would like to go. He then asks if I'd pay. I messaged back saying if it was necessary I wouldn't mind paying. Then he asked me to link my weapon. I asked him what he meant to make sure, and he linked back a random 100+ rank daggers + 7.

    I had my Dimension Breaker in my inventory at the time and figured I'd just link that back wonder why he even wanted me to. Then I get no reply and no invite. What happened there? I don't get it. I could take a freaking npc sword in there and drop those mobs if I didn't have my OHT one, just so long as I had Bloodpaint. So yeah, Seekers beware, you're now required to link your weapons for FCC and unless you're an 80+ with R9 you're not going to get a squad. -_-

    You noob. If you can't get into the party you want you should be starting the party you want unless you're one of those hyperleveled freaks at lvl 9x with a 4x weapon and/or no skills. If that's true you don't deserve to be in a frost party at all.
    I **** bigger than you...

    Shut up and play the game.....Damn

    It depends a bit. For example in my case, I want my Archer to 100 because all the gear on my sin would fit on my Archer, except the dagger. And all of it is 99+, except my Band from Heaven's Jail, my Energetic Robe: Wraithgate, my Warsoul of Earth and my Heaven Shatterer.

    There is a big difference between an obsession and a goal. There is also a big difference between wanting to walk the path and wanting to be at the finish.

    I want want my bm to get too 100 also. But, I don't see the use on just being 100 (which I could easily have done with just activating hypers and follow, since it's on another account then Empu), nor do I have to be 100 before the end of the week.

    I would guess there's a few reasons for it. For one, you have absolutely ridiculously epic gear, which to people tends to equal "has lots of spare in-game wealth". After all, why would you +12 your armors if you can survive with +11 or +10?.

    Idk why ppl have that kind of "jealousy" reasoning ingame, and never will. I saw a guy with a super expensive car yesterday, and I didn't feel any urge to act all best-buddy or flirt (yes, some do anything to "please" ppl with epic gear) with him because he "has lots of spare wealth". After all, why have a Porche, if you can drive 130 km/h with a Renault or Peugeot as well?

    Bottom line : someones own satisfaction shouldn't be based on "standards" set by others. Unfortunately, ingame as rl, this is less and less true. This is actually a theory for the current economic crisis (forgot who it was, but it's also supported by Krugman).

    I do wish they would actually make bosses proportionally hard to the squads total soulforce, at least in some instances. That would be fun. (Just like any owner of an expensive car would like to have the speedlimit proportional to the car's power b:chuckle)

    And the whole sin DPS thing is just because people don't do the actual math. Even if they do the actual math, they tend to misinterpret it, or only view it from a single aspect.

    b:laugh We better not go there. Most know how to use a calculator, but almost nobody seems how to read it. Most "math" presented on these forums are merely attempts to put an opinion into figures, so it looks more intelligent, universal and absolute.

    thumb-rule : any reasoning with 1 conclusion is to be trashed without hesitation.

    To be honest, I tend to assume (and am rarely proven wrong) the ones with extreme gear are the ones who can't play a lick. I've been playing for 3 years and have barely managed to acquire two pieces of gear +10 (weapons of course, on bm and seeker) and the rest +5 also shared between bm and seeker through account stash stone, and yet I have been the last man standing over dead R9 +12ers in BH100s before. I've also seen pleveled 100+ that still don't know how to run FF/FC in any kind of competent way (which is really funny, considering one should almost be forced to learn something, even if only tagging along on so many plevel runs).

    It is this type of people that causes the game to be unattractive to new players, which are the ones both PWE and the player community should want to see coming in, since they will keep the game alive and populated far longer than a handful of Mastercarders.

    I refuse to condone or support this type of player, even though I will acknowledge that aps and good gear potentially make farming things easier, which is why some people do concern themselves with investing in good gear and wanting to run with others who do the same. However, if you take 30-45 minutes building your little nitpicky squad, how exactly does that save you so much time, when you could have probably filled it with the first few pms you get in 10 seconds? Not to mention, the ones with the lower gear actually need the runs more, and generally know their classes better, since they actually have to play the game to advance.
