This gave me a little chuckle, and a bit of a nostalgic feeling, thinking of the days past when there was serious competition for those mat farming routes.

Wait, why am I breaking my rule about answering stupid posts by no-face trolls? Geez, I need coffee....
-
fixed it for ya b:chuckle P.S. Think it's hard finding a cleric for FC? Wait till you need a good barb for Delta.......

Sorry, the entire brain pool of the Perfect World think tank is currently occupied with the onerous task of pricing the soon to be released "Glory Pack", "Spiritual Pack" and "God Pack". When these are released you will forget about the Jones Blessing entirely as you sell your remaining organs to finance packs, so you can…

The number of bms/sins/archers that can survive tanking warsong/3-3/nirvana/etc is much smaller than the number that will constantly steal aggro from me if I try. If your gear is epic enough to tank, wonderful, please take me along on your runs, lol. If you are a sin or archer in an unrefined rank 4 chest with a +10 weapon…

That is fine, no one should fault you simply for not having been in an instance before (unless you are level 103 and haven't seen the inside of fb99s or warsong.... lol) everyone had a first time sometime. The problem comes when people haven't taken the time to become proficient with all their skills in a squad setting, do…

DD? Hell we make Ted TANK everything! Ted, come tank a full delta, I'll DD, we can get a psy to heal..... it'll be awesome b:laugh
-
(Um, this might be against some barb union code or something, but I pay enough dues to those jerks to overlook one little thing.....) The highest repair bill I have EVER had was under 400k, and that was after a full delta and an hour of aoe grinding in OVS, most of my gear was broken or nearly broken..... QFT
-
How has the aps craze affected me? It made many of my friends quit, made more of them rich, made some of them slaves to their gear, made more of them re-roll classes from anything that wasn't a sin or bm..... Made it harder for me to get squads for TT but made a lot of barbs quit entirely so I never had a problem getting…

Their name gives a clue: Assassins.... They have some sort of crit/zerk attack, coupled with a small reddish poof animation that is usually lost in the aoe animation mess in a pull, it is physical damage and can easily hit over 1k on arcanes (much more with black voodoo).
-
I just got this funny image of someone disconnecting in rebirth or warsong and logging back in to get killed by their squad's aoe before the re-invite.... Fun b:laugh

What most people fail to notice is the "price of gold" in game has no real meaning to the company making the game. The "price of gold" is $1 per unit. All the gold you "buy" at the auction house has already been paid for with a REAL dollar, this is what the company cares about, REAL dollars. They will (and should) do…

The way 2x drops works is the server calculates drops twice for each kill. If there is a 73% chance for a mob to drop nothing at all (as in the case of the mob you used: http://www.pwdatabase.com/pwi/mob/8567 ) that means there is a 73% chance for no drops each time the server counts it, not that the chance for item drops…
-
Prepare to tank? naw, I just run in and flesh ream once with my awesome level 1 (holds aggro better than lvl 11) ream and I tank all that stuff.... um, yeah.... As far as these higher level instances go I'd like to ask everyone, not just the "tanks": How prepared are you to tank? With all the random aggro, and insane array…
-
Maybe just most of them I have run with are either "**** geared" as you say, or just unaware of what their class can do. I gotta say though, I see a surprising number of high level sins with the level 60 rank chest for interval, but no real chest armor for protection in high damage aoe areas.... Oh yeah, this thread is…
-
Properly played, a psychic rocks rebirths, as a "replacement" for wiz/archer or veno. Their aoe damage destroys waves much faster than an archer (especially a semi-afk one with constant barrage), they have a sweet set of support skills, and some skills to save their asses from too much aggro. Sins, on the other hand, can…
-
To drag this thread back near the original topic: All weapons should be available to all classes (except maybe spheres, as psychics seem to use a different magical energy than the other classes). Ranged damage should be scaled up in PvE only. A scaled percentage increase, starting at level 59 (or 89....) with a comparable…
-
I wonder how long it will be until this thread is just deleted. To the company it seems that there is less profit to be made from making it easier to play without spending real money. Here's how PWE could fix it and make even more money: (are you listening PWE?) Create a cash shop item like training esoterica that…
-
There aren't many BMs that can pull without getting the cleric pummeled by mobs. If you say "they can use alpha male" then forget your plans of ToP or AD or anything like that. A barb can use Invoke>Roar>Sunder before reaching BB range and keep the party much safer, if a 5k hp BM tries to do anything but sprint past mobs…
-
The only real use of cube at lvl 40 (or below about 90 for squishy classes) is a free teleport to archosaur. Unless you enjoy wasting coin and time, or helping some perv stroke his epeen....
-
About what I expected from this lame idea. I get a blademaster avatar, my PvP kills (while never impressive) have been reduced to a proper carebear level. I've never done a quest but I bought 50 items from the cash shop and used world chat 50 times.... My level 94 cleric on another account has no achievements at all, he's…
-
This is the problem for squads around level 90, because they will take significantly longer to kill him there is more chance that several of his "random" aoes/attacks will happen in quick succession. If there is a half chance for a squad wipe every time at level 100 then at level 90 it's pretty much guaranteed. No boss…
-
I find it rather funny when people complain about how hyper/bh/etc has "ruined" the game by making it too easy to level. As if zhenning (aoe grinding) and rebirths taught everyone how to be ultra-pro. Spamming hyper fc's may be faster than the old school ways, but really how many hours of repeating the same routine of…

Yay for waiting for a cheap outsourced data-mining service to finish compiling the list of who gets what gifts! Yay for waiting for coders to fix the new graphical bugs that were created with the anniversay fashion! Yay for a company trying to drive it's customers elsewhere so the executives can make a fortune investing in…
-
Not true at all. When I was about 83 or so I did my first 3-1. We were all newbies and didn't kill enough mobs for the GBA boss. With one cleric and the only person in party above 90 being a 96 wiz, we were able to survive for a few minutes. The aoe was around 5k in frenzy mode, not 50k, please do not make **** up, it…
-
This is what I first thought when I heard about the "new" TT 3-x. I have fought 3-1 beast on frenzy mode (fun newbie times b:chuckle ) and this is exactly what he did. Considering PWE's superb abilities to release massively bugged content as patches, I strongly suspect when they went into the code to make it harder they…
-
This ^ I can't wait to see the new "events".... lemme guess, more system spam! Bye bye talking to friends with in game chat..... wait, probably by bye friends anyway; because of TW pay and the general direction of crappiness this game is taking. C'mon PWE.... Forsaken World isn't out yet, if you expect us to play your…
-
The "problems" you mention are gold farming induced inflation, correct? If this is the case there is no need to take drastic measures to protect PWI as the cost of living/wages in the areas served by this version are far too high to support any significant gold farming. It makes it obvious just how out of touch with…
-
The ideal place to use invoke is after gathering all the mobs, you are right about the slow effect. Holy path, charger orbs, Vacuity powder, and cleric purify (if you have a second cleric, or feel the need to invoke before pulling) will all remove this slow effect. Yeah, a few IH before running is great, also wings of…
-
Some hints for barbs: 1) Skill set to use after gathering mobs with proximity aggro, and before reaching the edge of BB effect range: Invoke>Roar>Sunder>Frighten>Surf Impact This will get all aggro firmly on you. You may have to use HP food and/or genie skills to live, but your cleric and DDs will thank you. (Alpha Male…
