I'm in a three person guild because we decided getting to design our own outfit was the proper priority over meeting people and finding easy runs. Before that I just ended up in random guilds that invited me when I ended up doing content with their members, rinse repeat when that guild died or whatever. There's almost always several clans recruiting on Crimson side of Zulia for both endgame and gearing, assume the same for Ceru, and the BnS Buddy discord has raid recruitment channels if you get to that point without your own group.

Should I just unlock all of my hongmoon skills when I can?

Find out which ones are priority for your class and unlock them in that order. Every class usually has one or two that are basically needed then the rest are optional.

i've been enjoying this a whole lot again. ran a gunslinger up to 45 so far with a friend. i only really quit the first time because a bunch of friends bounced off the game and this game is bad to play alone. it's pretty and fun and the music is good. i hope the content at 55 is interesting, because the lack of it at 45 is apparently why all of my friends quit.

also leveling way faster than in the past helps a lot too.

There's a good bit of content at max if only because to gear up F2P you need to do all the purple dungeons a day for money

So, trying to get back into this but with all the changes and how long it's been I'm reaaaaally out of practice for how to play my level 45 classes. There a good resource of quickguides to help get me back in or any general suggestions?

there's a hongmoon training button near the bottom of the screen with lessons on how to play each class. i think at 50 or 55 there's like 30+ lessons per class.

Hey I'm coming back to this game for a bit and wanted to try out a gunslinger but the option isn't in character creation and I can't find out if I need to unlock it or something from google. Do I need to do something special here or make it to such and such level before I can play one? My only character right now is a 30 blade dancer.

I'm picking it up from my blade dancer and I've lost the plot a bit, who is this Yonkai fucker and why don't I just kill him?

Bad general dude with a sufficiently large army to make killing him a bad idea

Thanks much, this is a REALLY cool addition I did not know about. Should hopefully help me get back up to speed once I look up some good Blade master builds.

I like the plot of this game but the bit where everyone acts like I spent the first half of Silverfrost as a total dick is kinda lame, I did the same old slightly exasperated village saving shenanigans I spent the last 3 acts doing. And I didn't even get to hang out with bad man Mushin at all.

some parts of the plot were also changed for the western release. most notably was the one where in kr you go back in time but in us/eu you're like, representing someone or something. They didn't change any dialogue after that and it is confusing af.

Does that include the bit where Dochun is having a flashback and is like "by the way, someone who looks and fights exactly like you was there."?

because that was slightly awkward.

There's only one thing in the mountains that leaves a track like this. The creature of legend that roams the Timberline. My people named him Sasquatch. You call him... Bigfoot.
I think it's the earlier flashback bit in the town with the mine and the great dragon gate thing. Where you're supposed to be there representing someone but then someone recognizes you in the present from your time travel.

Yeah it's really weird. Also poharans grandpa just saying he'll muscle through his dark chi infection while we go through 10 chapters of story to cleanse ours was odd.

That Mardun guy or whatever his name was from the eight masters said he had a dark chi infection once and had to purify it over the course of several years by following the path of enlightenment, which was time you didn't have to spare hence all the junk you had to go through.

The timeline is hard to follow because it seems like weeks or months go by between the start of the game and the showdown with Jinsoyun, then a skip before you going around telling people you aren't dead, and then they do what seems like an even longer timeskip right after.

Also goddamn but I need to get a security system for Heavens Reach.

Okay I hit level 55, hongmoon level 7 and this little bar shows up above my quests inviting me to do some daily's for exciting rewards and I'm all like hell yeah I'll do that little buddy and it tells me to go to Irontech core.

Then me and and my LFG party of apparently new and like minded fellows got our cricket selves picked and crushed between the butt cheeks of cyborg gorilla after flailing around at it blindly for like 5 minutes, hitting an enrage timer of some kind right at 70%, when his actual mechanics came online.

Is this a get gud thing or do am I poking around the wrong neighborhood?
