Dude is now offering 500g.

I just started playing yesterday so I'm not up to date with current goon events. What did you guys do to piss him off?

VVVVVVVVV My bad. It's too late for me to not be an idiot. It is beautiful though.

It's right on the previous page.

We didn't get the usual area we have for vanarchy, but we got Lumbertown's area.
And then Crowd disabled PvP in the area. And the amount of butthurt clenching suddenly generated could power a space elevator.

This is just wonderful. I like how that forum post goes; "You can't take away access to a part of a game, take away access to the part of the game that does that instead!" Hypocrisy at it's finest.

I just love how as people start defending what happened, the only thing he can say is "ARE RIGHTS"

I mean, it's not like DGKK dug up some super secret Vanarchy menu. It's there. It does nothing on a PVE server, it does something on a PVP server.

We used... the nuclear option. No PVP Allowed. It's Crowd's right to click the button.

Wow that thread :psyduck: I'm pretty sure 99% of the server population actually agrees that PVP off in Lumbertown is a sweet move. Not only does it let newbies get some leveling done, it's a giant gently caress you to bored level 60s.

Yeah, it's basically one guy going on a tirade, some agree on some points... But most of the thread completely disagrees with the OP. That's... Surprising.

I think the last 3 or so lockboxes I've opened with leftover keys have all been valiant potions. I think that's the most 'haha you lose' item you can get out of those boxes. I don't know why you would ever spend actual money on keys for these things.

Also, this no-pvp in lumbertown is the most enjoyable troll I've seen in a while. Please keep wringing out those tears.

The amount of butthurt crying in that "Best reason to end Vanarchy" thread is amazing. It's like when you turned off low level ganking you somehow took away everything that mattered to him.

Outstanding work! :golfclap:

I'd love it if PVP was also turned off in Granarkus.

There are always half a dozen people camping the exit of Kanstria hoping to gank brand new 60s.

I can tell its brand new 60s they go for because they never bother my priest (glowing weapon) but they get my lancer every single time I try to leave town. The difference is my lancer is in all +6 nexus gear, and these people in +12 conjunct have never managed to kill me yet.

It's still annoying to have to step around them every time and use dash to avoid them.

I'm still not sure if people are going to hate us and try to get us out of vanarchy like reddit or if we have lowbie support that we won't fall out of vanarchy next term. Seems like finding allies now would be quite hard for next term since TFT and NFA pretty much abandoned us. That and the whole server seems to hate us, or at least the most vocal members of the server.

Pretty sure turning off PvP in Lumbertown is going to win votes, not lose them. You pissed of really loud griefers who weren't voting for you anyway. Meanwhile you've made life easier for the countless new players/alts, and all the crybaby griefers' screaming does is advertise that you did that for them.

When I last played they were talking about making some big changes to Zerkers. Did that ever happen? What were they?

Any opinions on which melee class would be easiest/strongest to level for a new player? I usually play casters, so I want to try something different in this game? Also, do races really matter? They seem to be just for looks.

If you're looking for DPS, Slayers/Berserkers are common favorites and probably level the fastest. Races are very minor bonuses, you'd regret picking a race based on bonus alone so pick whichever one you like best (popori.)

Lancers level pretty darn quickly and you get instant dungeon queues.

Warriors and Lancers are melee classes that are able to tank if thats your thing. Warriors can go assault stance to DPS or defensive stance to tank giving you a lot of versatility. Lancers are pure tanks but with the damage buff they can hit pretty hard for a tank. Tanks also get instant queues and are in high demand at level 60 along with healers.

The demand for Lancers is kind of nuts. If you want to dungeon and you don't mind tanking then Lancer or Warrior is pretty great. The lancer I group with for a lot of dungeons complains about any queue longer than 2 min while my average alone is like an hour.

Also, people upset about lumbertown are pretty hilarious

Outstanding afternoon. "I've often said there's nothing better for the inside of a man than the outside of a horse."

Are slayers worth anything for instances/end game/pvp or am I better off rolling a lancer?

I can't stand any queue longer than 2 mins and I play Sorceror and healers.

I just hang around now and wait til somebody invites me to run MC or CoF.

There was some exploit or attack of some kind last night that caused this and the server crashes, customer support restored my character overnight
