rip in peaches chinagame, was fun even if all the events required me to wake up at 4am. At least this vindicates my burnout.

I think a significant part of the Age of Wushu experience was lost when the error text no longer said, "Please follow the lady to the guestroom."

My first experience was getting the thrown up on in newbie town. It's a real shame, since I really liked some aspects of the game. Here's to hoping we get something to fill the hole.

I remember getting killed while farming wheat about 15 minutes after joining the guild; was told the reason was all goons must die. Stuff like this turned it from a dumb broken china game into a carte blanche for pvp schenanigans without any of the guilt. Hopefully Moonlight Blade will be coming our way because it looks pretty much like wushu 2.0

I think the best moment was when the GMs spawned a world boss in our apple tree field that we were using to ambush carts with. Seems like everything always made pubbies so mad but man sometimes it was just magical. The entire emphasis on pvp in every aspect of wushu was just such an interesting change. It really is too bad it all went to poo poo because the devs didn't care.

You might find a goon on another server that isn't Blue Dragon (I think there might be one left) but basically the only people left are pay2wins that still consistently buy everything that Snail puts out.

I may be the last one left. I am on White Tiger, which I don't think is as dead as Blue Dragon. You can still have some fun with the game, but the pvp can often suck thanks to all the pay2win bullshit they've added since the game came out. ponzicar fucked around with this message at 15:39 on Dec 9, 2014 |

Most goons quit the game just after 3rd inner patch last year because we recorded a hostile alliance blatantly cheating in a guild war and Snail said recorded video proof wasn't good enough to punish them. Literally. That and all goons idling in Wudang during primetime for a chance to get a skill that was worthless without the rest of the set which killed off newbies wanting to play since they had no high level people to help them fight terrorists or blitz quests with. Oh goons

An NPC got spawned from Thanksgiving event. This NPC does 6k splash damage unparried and was spawned at the Chengdu mortuary, marketplace, and bank. This NPC can also jump on platforms buildings by following the player if it does not get reset. Good samaritan cleans mysterious tailor roof  Mortuary filled with dead people  Pubbies get mad at coming back to 0 durability gear because of not conveniently AFKing at the unoccupied herbal halls outside the city

The PvE in Wushu is unique, to say the least. A raid instance where everyone has to stand around doing nothing while the leader completes confusing, poorly translated storyline quests, followed by hp sponge boss fights with confusing gimmicks. It reminds me of the stuff I'd play as a kid in the 90s, back before there were commonly accepted guidelines of game design.

Did the raids ever get gimmicks more exciting than stacking bunch of Tangmen on the boss so that it doesn't take two weeks to kill them?

With the Hua patch mangle was nerfed to where there's only one stack on the boss, but people also got way stronger due to weapon manuals, class 5 gear and 3rd internals (and Jianghu up to 49) at the same time. Mangle was still usable, but the game went from "ride on the backs of tangmen" to "a tangman is really nice to have but not necessary"

Puistokemisti posted:Did the raids ever get gimmicks more exciting than stacking bunch of Tangmen on the boss so that it doesn't take two weeks to kill them? It literally turned into absolute bullshit mechanics that might as well have been impossible. We circumvented them by having wudangs (or other choice classes) use their skills in a weird chain that allowed them to stay permanently aloft above the boss. The boss wouldn't do anything since he couldn't path to the target. Generally, this would work. Generally. To give you an example -- there was an absolutely retarded WALL BOSS that we had to surmount. It started with two guys on top of the Great Wall of China. One had a move that summoned four swords with a decent amount of HP -- something that would take a concentrated effort to bring down. If you didn't kill all 4 swords, they would instantly hit everyone in the zone for 1 million damage. However, if you hovered in the air above him, he would never use swords as long as you maintained threat. Thus, you had to do a bullshit strategy of maintaining aggro, luring in mobs to keep up rage, while keeping the chain intact and hope that lag wouldn't cause you to drop. While this was going on, there was generally another wudang on the road leading to the WALL generally tanking anywhere from 500 to 1000 mobs by being in the air over them. More bullshit happened after that. It was dumb. There were two more bosses that appeared after you beat the two on the wall that didn't really make any sense insofar as I could tell. They would just sometimes kill you. You had to beat the entire thing in one go to progress. It generally took about half an hour for the encounter. We beat the final boss by attacking him through a tent, as suggested (somewhat) by bumbaclyde. Everyone berated him for being an idiot, and Delamore left in frustration because the boss was so retarded. Then we killed him with like 6 guys by punching him through a tent wall. The fact that we solved any of us is still shocking to me. Saradiart fucked around with this message at 23:32 on Dec 14, 2014 |

HOW COULD YOU FORGET GREEN LIGHTNING MAN? Rather like wall boss, Green Lightning Man had an ability that would wipe the entire raid with green lightning. As far as we were ever able to tell, he would only decide to cast it if at least one member of the raid was outside of melee range of him. Easy, you'd think - just stack everyone in melee and kill the useless HP sponge. That's what we thought, too. Then we discovered that he had another ability which triggered within seconds of there being more than 3 people in melee range, which knocked back the entire raid. You do not truly understand Wushu's PvE design until you have spent 5 minutes throwing your body at a boss that throws you back out as soon as you do anything. He was also an assassin boss, which was amazing.

To make him easier in the end for fast runs we had a mangle stack on him with everyone using vertigo dart or the shen needle set with hella dex drugs.
