Been playing the korean beta for the last two days now and with regards to stamina, I can honestly say I haven't used a single pill on this character. I'm level 61 and melee, with no jump or teleport skills. And 300 ping. Against bosses that rape melee. So I'm not sure what you're griping so hard about. It's not that bad a mechanic. Anyway key points to take away from my experience so far: - Talk to every NPC you see. He may have quests and they are real easy and great exp. - If you're not into grouping, kill everything and try to stay like 10 levels above your area. It's not that hard. - Blue-blinking monsters give 1-2 levels worth of experience. If you have to run across the room flailing your weapon like a mad person to get at one of these guys, do it. - Blue-blinking monsters can also just be some idiot cleric who hexed it. There's a difference. - Gold/white-blinking monsters are loot piñatas. - Exp is shared between people who hit monsters. More people = less exp, so try and get away from player packs. Or group with them. - Boss monsters will rotate/follow for a few seconds between each attack. This is your chance to smack at them. You get a feel for it after a while. - Some monsters are weak against slashing (swords), some monsters are weak against blunt (maces), some against piercing (arrows, barbarians), fire/ice/lightning/etc. Learn their weaknesses and exploit them. Swordsman has a passive skill especially for this purpose (weapon swap). So far I've done exceptionally well running with both a mace and a sword. - Talk to your class guy and learn your passives! - Use anvils (potion shop) to upgrade items. Upgrading doesn't seem to fail as far as I can tell, but it gets hella expensive after +3. Like +1 = 300g, +2 = 800g, +3 = 1500g, +4 = 9000g, +5 = 18000g. - Sit down (insert) and use gem crafting to combine gems into bigger gems. - The auction house interface is like... But if you can stomach it you can find really cheap items there. People will sell stuff at 100g over vendor price. Idiots. - You are locked into whatever class you pick, they make very sure of telling you this, so be sure before you hit OK. Therefore we can deduce there may or may not be cash shop items to reset skill points within your class, but there most likely will not be cash shop items to reset your class tree. - If you find a good grind spot, exploit the gently caress out of it. There areas scattered all over where easy monsters spawn in huge packs. I'll add more if I think of it.

Can anyone confirm if the combat is just you making GBS threads out a ton of hits at once or if there's a class that does? Was the thing I liked about RO.

One of my pubbie friends who said he had an email actually didn't get in, so it's not worth buying for me. If I get a different key maybe I'll try to buy one for him. Maybe I could if it's less. Nevermind, everything worked out. Baby T. Love fucked around with this message at 01:59 on Aug 1, 2015 |

Hopefully they let us get stamina drinks another way. Anyone know when the NA retail release is coming? I did not get into the beta and I can't find any details on ToS' retail release.

For what it's worth, I haven't played the game myself but all the streamers I've watched didn't seem to have huge issues with staminaGruknor posted:Hopefully they let us get stamina drinks another way.

Okay so when you're enchanting items, up to +5 is just buy the anvil item and enchant away. Above +5 you have a chance of failing. If you fail, it eats a Potential point (items have potential points) and resets it to rank 0. Expect +6 and above to get expensive real fast.

Wouldn't be an asian MMO without this (+5 for "free" is super generous)

But on the other hand I have no idea what the maximum is. There could be many, many levels of failure to go through. Introducing cash shop item Auto-Enchanter Mk.IX?

I want to know who it will be that finds out about a maximum (without datamining) and how many resources they spent getting there.

So like, what is the point of stamina? Even if it's not a big issue, what does it do? Is it a resource for skills or something?
|
# ? Aug 1, 2015 15:55 |

Stamina allows you to keep running and is particularly important in boss fights. Having no stamina makes you a sitting duck for most attacks and turns bosses from a cakewalk to impossible in some cases. Its a resource basically, one that is recovered on the field by breaking crystals or by consuming potions bought from NPCs or created by players.
