Blacksmithing ones do, but poison-making ones get parry endurance instead. I'm surprised I haven't seen more trade in them for people using non-pomf unarmed sets.

They don't show up in the trade search unless you go by name and even then the only ones people sell are poo poo unupgraded jade for 79 ding.

What counts as a faction to complete? And where can I get the daily instance run quest?

The npc at your school for excursion gives 2 daily quests. One for gcc that gives 4, and one for yanmen pass that gives 6. Faction numbers 25 and below have one certificate in the chest from beating one six times in one day, and they are a rare drop from the prize chests in the factions themselves.

I have also seen them from boss chests in gcc. The sullen wooden box is wood quality, so make sure to set the roll quality to wood items.

I see a Guardianes with a kidnap sack on top of a wall that I'm running on and didn't feel like fighting him so I just walk by and jump off to the Trafficker. Right as I land, he hits the vagrant red armor multihit because he's a loving moron I guess so I utterly destroy him:

Join a faction. Or join WV and get perish blade plus a mentor for third inner and do tornadoes once you have it leveled some and a few meridians rolling. Get those jianghu inner fragments. I hear Beast Villa's set is good for PvE though, which is what you need at the start, so maybe that's another quick route to tornadoes while doing a faction at the same time.

If you can get on your old character, you may have a million cultivation, chi and such for the returning hero event. Maybe even a free month of VIP. Plus you'll have a bigger accumulated chi pool, which is a big deal for starting out. Just betray if you don't want the school.

So apparently the new cash shop set is, get this, ANOTHER EXTERNAL SET.

AND OH BOY WHAT A SET IT IS

A 20% slow (spam) that when inflicted 3 times becomes a 2 sec paralyze (!2s cd!), a flying skill cancel (12s cd), an AoE knockdown with yellow armor (12s cd), a 15% extra damage debuff spam (!2s cd again!), a parry that knocks you back after 10 hits, a shadow clone that prevents flying skills for 10 seconds AND with which you can switch places with instantly two times (using any other move in the set, mind you), hitting everyone around you AND the clone, and finally, a TEN HIT RAGE WITH 250% SCALING OFF BREATH/BRAWN.

Just play with goons. You also might be able to send the rewards to Blue Dragon even if your old character is on White Tiger. Just be sure to make the Blue Dragon character before you claim things.

External sets have damage reduced by armor. Internal sets are reduced by internal defense of the appropriate type.

Each skill set is taichi, yin, yang, soft or hard in addition to the internal/external designation. If you use an inner of a compatible type (a yin set with yinsoft inner for instance) you get +20% damage. Taichi inners get +16% with the other 4 types. Yinsoft inners (POMF) get +16% with taichi sets and +0% with yang or hard sets. Yanghard inners get +16% with taichi sets and +0% with yin or soft sets.

Basically this exactly. I still love Victorious (because I am a terrible player with bad ping and that set worked great for me) and I cannot even manage to get more skill levels and a nice staff for that loving set. Akeenai I think uses Mozi on koop and I haven't time to level it yet either--another set would just rot away. 5USD I would throw at it but 30USD (I assume) is a bit pricey to sit and rot. If Snail wants to throw new sets around like candy, they should consider a knee-jerk buy price and then every player buys sets all the time.

If you do kidnapping every day the whole time it is active on one VIP account, you can probably get it for ~$8 or less. That requires you to be on to do the kidnapping though.

Once again, Honeybeez ignores any type of chat until literally half of Peach is on his rear end about him being goddamn awful at the game and not paying attention. We tell him to air tank the boss instead of constantly resetting it, since it's the only way to get materials to make masks so he tells us to make an array and use Charge and Breakthrough which you can only use in Forbidden instances. So I let him know this while calling him a loving idiot and he stops talking again.

In other news, somebody wanted our help for a task of theirs while we were doing the faction boss (it only spawns twice daily and you have to kill him in 20 minutes and with his healing he takes ~4.5mil damage or so to kill) and this happened:



He tells me off and basically thinks everyone is on his side until Huyet jumps in and also tells the guy to get to the event boss :v:

To be overly fair, I know that in Korean the word that translates.to date can be used for any outing with friends, family, or girl/boyfriends. Though there are less formal versions used for dating too? I forget - I haven't taken a Korean class in three years, and only was in one for six months. Not sure about Vietnamese.

Is spending thirty dollars on a set seriously worth it though?

No probably not but you can always find solace in people spending 20 times more on just one random skill from a set (ancient tai chi) than a complete cash shop set.

It depends on the set. For instance, I find Yuanyang to be very useful in a lot of situations from assassinations, to assassination defense, to guild wars. That spin vacuum+stun is niiice, as is the armor airdash capability which I use for things like tornadotime and rushing throne interruptions. If this set is as good as it is claimed to be, then yeah probably. Especially if it is competitive with something like ancient dog beating (which I don't really know at the moment).

You can use your kidnap taels and get the people selling cash shop items to buy it for you, which is technically cheaper. Unless you're cool with spending $30 on it or are bad at kidnapping.

So I've been kicked for

1. Having a Character that was gifted to me
2. Doing whatever I want with that Character, since it is mine now.
3. Not having time to sperg wushu 12 hours a day
4. The time I do have I do not have during Guild Wars or Events
5. Being a little overexcited about the character in the first TWO days.
6. Being friends with someone else other than our "allies"

I admit I was a bit cocky about playing the character when I first got it, but that quickly settled when I realized things had changed, and that the char alone doesnt make for winning fights, but since then I've been nothing but nice to people, so I wouldnot "upset" any alliances or politics I have no clue about, only chatted dueled and killed the random brasil.

People need to realize Feedz left, and he left me the Character, all I did to it I did AFTER asking Feedz what he thought, and I think if you knew him at all you'd know that he would never have given me Account Access if he had any intent of coming back.

I am sad to see that such decisions are taking on a whim it seems the loss of Feedz and Ilwrath did not make the guild fare very well as it became TDH USA branch, police the members, care about the allies , run the carts!

But it's fine I follow so many Goons that left to noTrabbu, very sad, did not want to, you made me :(

Edit:
Also I think its pretty disrespectful to feedz to claim he gave it to me cuz hurr shes a girl he has more sense than that

I helped him 6 hours every monday to friday with the stupid superinner for 2 months, as well as giving him literally everything that wasnt bound to sell so he could power to 64 jianghu and 49 wv 4th, what did you do for him?

It wasn't made on a whim, several of us talked about it.

TDH USA branch, what? Also, we don't police anyone, I just tell people that if they gently caress with allies they'll get hosed with back which has been the golden rule since forever?

And nobody tells anyone to run carts :rolleye:


Edit: and your main leaving goons to join MO and then you popping up into guild chat on Feedz's character was a pretty big red mark :shrug:
