This game has PVE content? What is the content of this game, anyway? As an outsider whose only exposure is this thread and the character creator, I got the impression that game was about making as much money as possible. But never heard what you do with the money.

PVE? PVP? Pretty princess? What? All I've seen is that you use the money to kill people and take their money. And you're a sucker if you do that, since the best way to make money is to hack and cheat. And if I wanted to do that, I'd do it in real life. At least EVE has the stupid political crap.

Why do you people play this game? I think you're all crazy.

Hey Kimsemus, I know its not my place to say this as I'm not even a west goon, but do you think you'd have more fun in archeage as an actual pirate?

I'm not saying you're wrong about anything, it just feels like you'd honestly have alot more fun as a full-on pirate and free to pillage and kill whoever you want.

I really don't understand what the problem is here. Fishing is currently the best way in the game to get gold if you don't own land. Gold you then use to buy gear so you can do better than get two shot while PvPing in this PvP game. Is it really so hard to understand why people don't want others to gently caress this up for the majority of us who don't own more than an 8x8?

If the PvP in this game was more than a ping contest to see who gets the first CC off they might have more of an argument. Ask me about macroing my CCs in 1v1 arena so I have a rats chance at getting the first one off to do my dial-a-combo before the other dude does his dial-a-combo.

Oh and the idea of breaking up someone's combo using a CC breaker is a pretty big crock considering you just advance to the next CC phase of your combo and continue on. One just may wait a bit longer to attack after the last CC to wait for cooldowns to come back up.

A neat build for 1v1 arena that trips most people up is a plate dreambreaker with illustrious lake, hasla shield, and a nice 1H scepter with lots of +magic attack. Pick all CC and mitigation spells/talents and then just spam enervate -> earthen grip (e: while running away/spamming CCs) off of every CD and you'll win 99% of arena fights because no one will be able to out sustain you. Said build is also decent for pirating because it has bubble the patron skill of piracy. That said you'll find more magic users on the high seas so a backup set of cloth gear may be in order.

A good guide (I kinda like taking Conversion Shield rather than Thwart because CS really fucks up casters in the rare event you find one)

90% of arenas are faceroll melees or stone arrows / primevals who think they can chip you to death. The joke being on them because you can spam Teleport -> Enervate -> Earthen Grip far faster than they can use their kiting abilities. Also Invincibility is a useful tool to delay people's combo a good 12 seconds so you can then enervate and earthen grip them again.

Also I played 1v1 arenas for a good several hours one night and didn't face a single magic damage player, they're insanely unpopular in 1v1 arena.

QT also runs around with a pretty rad Soothsayer build especially since he can poop on all the Darkrunners who have 0 sustainability.

Might give this a try. Been running and around as an Abolisher and being basically un-killable.
I switch out thwart and cs all the time, both have their uses.

You have to be a patron (subscriber) to have a plot of land, but that's purchasable with in-game money (and is kept fairly cheap thanks to identity thieves).

Bigger problem is that there's no land available.

Hello Commandos
I'd like to play this so I have a couple of questions

Do you have to get a EU or US client to be able to play with everyone here?
Who do I speak to in game to join a guild that won't put me on some sort of register for life?

When we say goons are generally undergeared, do we mean they have green/blue GHA and hasla, or worse than that?

Because I only have Green/blue GHA (5 loving wasted armor scrolls on chest), and perform acceptably in pvp when not facing down people who RMT'd or had their guilds funnel gold straight to them.


If goons in general don't even have that, well you're going to need some insane luck in Auroria.

I have 3 heroic and the rest blue GHA and I have no trouble killing people in PVP. Some goons just got butt hurt about getting wrecked by over geared people and now refuse to PVP until they have top gear(they'll quit out of boredom before they get it).

I personally had a great time leading pirate content with one of the largest pirate fleets we've had in awhile, and we were able to have fun while respecting our fishing agreements 100%. Even though DBRB and others cried so much to Riyott he had to leave his IRL Friends and rush home to try and ban me on mumble, once everyone in the channel explained I, and the others did nothing wrong, he left satisfied that the pirates, once again, were on the right side of justice.

This Saturday night our goon brothers and sisters from <Something Lawlful> would like to co-host a fun run. The route has yet to be determined in full but it will definitely be in the east, and most likely ending in Hasla. So grab your bag of cheetos, pull up your speedo's and get ready for a mad dash through furryland to show your naked skin superiority.

Starting off with a pot of 25g to the winner. We will be accepting donations to the pot and depending on the turnout and gold raised, we may be able to payout all involved.

Rules to make it semi-fair:
-No riding mounts
-No flying on gliders
-No gear (costumes accepted)
-No using abilities/passives/buffs you can do to make yourself go faster

That being said I fully expect you bastards to come up with ways to gently caress each other over and I'm looking forward to it. See you all at the races!
