To be honest for early levels cleric = wizard. Normal mobs, etc cleric > wizard on wood and nonelemental mobs; wizard better on all the others. In fact, plume shot's damage is equal to pyrograms, while cyclone = gush. Later the differentiation is mostly due to weapon choices and leveling up the ulti skills. BIDS is better…

*Takes a deep breath* I rather think this is one of the most efficient flame-inducing posts I have ever seen. Good luck with the incoming criticisms.

The interface appears exactly like this. I am using firefox, haven't tried to view it on IE yet but this started today or yesterday as far as I can tell.

Seconded. It's a great idea I've seen implemented in other forums with success.

This was also said/alluded to earlier (sorry I have no links but I don't remember the exact thread titles offhand and I sorta suspect they've been depth'd or deleted). The original intent of the stickies was for news announcements and all the ones devoted to discussion were taken down to preserve this function. Also I…

For PvE go with veno. They can solo far more than a wizard and are more wanted in squads. In late game, you will feel some pressure to buy or farm a herc from the cash shop (the game's best tanking pet) to be invited to more instance parties. This is the major investment for a pve veno. PvE wizard requires lots of…

If it still does not work after you try the suggested advice, you may need to wait a few levels. Skill tiers require you to be certain levels to unlock. I think level 2 requires that you are level 20.

I think he posted somewhere that he has 50ish pms to get through. I'm guessing it's horribly busy right now for mods, too. I'd probably wait until next week or you can join the queue but don't expect a response instantly.

I hope people take this to heart and I hope your increased Q&A answers [now that everyone is *relatively* calmer] continues even long after this debacle is forgotten.

Regardless of how ridiculous or justified you think it was, it did succeed in one thing: it got people's attention. I daresay that was needed. I didn't take part in the mudslinging because I generally try to avoid it, but they did what they thought was best. Note I am not talking about the random trolls; more so the ones…

Heartfelt thanks for answering. This is what people need.

This is a problem. Not picking on you personally, but I know Silvaf posted some great advice a page or two ago and once again people who have nice/on-topic things to say are ignored in favour of derailment. This seems to happen on most threads once insults are hurled. Best idea ever is to brush off those insults because…

That's the central issue; obviously no one has effectively been able to get everyone to stop spending money enough so that they begin listening to us. Maybe it's bad organization, maybe it's too few people paying attention to the forums, but we are not united. So you have people who try to be reasonable and see that it…

It's unfortunate that the reasonable voices have been ignored for the most part. On the one hand I think it's good, in a way, to have a sort of riot scenario like this, if only to make the admins take a second look at what's going on here. On the other hand, the amount of idiocy it has spawned is a bit ridiculous. It's…

Wrong thread, buddyboy. This is a different argument entirely.

It's hard sometimes for shy people to get things done. What I'd suggest, though, is to join a guild, if you're comfortable with trying that. You can just sit back and watch guild chat for as long as you want, get to know your guildmates through observation. And if a topic interest you at any time, you can join in the…

If you do not mind being separate for the first 20 levels as people have mentioned [it goes by quickly if you push through it and do the quests], a cleric+barb will give you the core of all low level squads, making it easy to form groups for instances and have a very easy ride through quests. Cleric+archer for two that…

This is probably going to fall upon dead ears. But if you truly want to change how discussion works, start by examining your own posts and try to figure out what you can do to change them so you do not incite such responses. It's not all your fault but we can always improve ourselves. If everyone made that sort of effort…

Also one of the few from PvP servers. I actually think it's quite comical how all the "carebears" are leading up this rebellion thing. b:chuckle

I won't address your post point by point, but what I have found helps is to brush off the personal insults. In reality, I doubt they are truly meant, as it is quite easy to insult a wall of text and I do believe *most* [maybe not all] of these people would not say the same thing to someone's face. When you realise that you…

He's not a god. But he did write one intelligent post that is worth quoting.

Not going to happen. It would've been done already.

Bump to put this on the first page. It may have derailed a bit, but the points within should be read/responded to in some way. And I have not seen a response yet.

Thanks for posting this b:thanks

This is where the stupidity lay in the giant mod thread...I feel like people were misdirecting their anger to the mods when this was a real issue [in my opinion, take it as you will] of a breach of trust/communication gap/buildup of many past issues. The lie about Konari was just another example of deception for no real…

I think there could be a little more though; saying something like "I cannot disclose this information due to company policy" would be honest, straightforward, and allow the playerbase to know that at least they are listening, even if they cannot reply fully. That would be nice.

It's been pretty apparent though that there's not much communication between the playerbase, mods and GMs. The forum should form a link between the admins and the playerbase, but this one hasn't. Concerns voiced here are said to be "told to the higher ups", but we rarely see the results or hear anything after that. So when…

Yeah, I got what you were saying :). And I'm guilty of being extremely inactive in-game while frequenting the forums much more.

Lurkers can be well-informed too b:chuckle b:avoid

To address your points: It is unfortunate but most of the time there will always be more negative than positive feedback. People are more vocal when they are unhappy. I'm sure there are plenty of happy people right now; they just aren't singing praises to the game because there's nothing to talk about. This isn't much of a…
