i installed an addon to tell me where to go to quests and now i have 10+ lazer lines shooting out of my character at all times.

Every single quest addon is horrific. That goes for all MMOs, but this one is a special kind of bad.

People who can't, for whatever reason, buy Ncoins in-game are being directed by Carbine to buy them from Amazon instead. However, those Amazon codes are set up by NCsoft so that they only can be redeemed if you have at least one active Aion or Lineage II character. So, Carbine's solution: download Aion and make a character there first.

lmao :eyepop: I want to at times defend this game but then stuff like this happens.

Many of the quest addons are fine (I used Perspective myself) and there's no reason not to run them since you can customize what they display: You can turn off the lines or show dotted lines or only show them for certain things.

Straight guilds are not the default or the majority. Guilds do not have an orientation. It is insane to me that people can still think like this. And it also has nothing to do with being selective about a guild at all. Like, in general, it's a really stupid thing to seek out. Just because people happen to be LGBT doesn't mean they're nice people or a perfect guild either. And just because they're straight doesn't mean they're not. More than likely, nearly every guild has some of both. And it's just baffling to me that anyone thinks this line of thinking is acceptable.

I would like the person who thought the new stats were better to be punched, too.

Just do the classic str/dex/sta formula, have them feed crappy secondary stats, stop trying to reinvent the wheel when your idea for a better version of the wheel is 16 squares.

I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

well um a wheel is a circle and a circle is 360 degrees therefore there should be 360 stats.

But degrees are an arbitrary measure, circles have infinite sides and therefore there should be infinite stats.

Spellslinger clicked for me after I learned how SP worked/could be managed. Esper is basically a ranged rogue sans stealth in the way it builds/spends combo points. I couldn't get into Warrior/Medic at all though.

Engineer has been working fine for me. They have some weirdly shaped area effects that require positioning, but they play basically like ranged warriors with the option for bringing pets along.

Man I forgot about making an engineer. I played one back in the original beta but got into being a spellslinger in live. They're both really fun classes.

I think at the minute there's only two servers, Entity and whatever the PvP one is named; I'm on Entity, and my Spellslinger is an exile. I might make a Dominion Engineer.

e: My spellslinger is Nikolai Volgin, and my Dominion engineer is Hunsworth Hairbeard.

I'm on Entity Exile. I made a guild named Goon Squad last night if anybody wants to join it. Or take it from me. Or whatever. Space Jam was unavailable, so I assume somebody still has that?

There's no telling who Space Jam actually fell to once the servers merged but goons originally had it. Since no one in it plays anymore it's probably just lost forever.

Pretty much everyone called it in the last thread. :v: It's not as horrible as it used to be, but it's still at best mediocre.

Still, it's a good time waster. Especially if you get some other people playing so you're not just watching zone chat poo poo the bed and scream at the bed in frustration because there's poo poo in it.
