I just leveled a guy 1-70 in D3 while in the login queue and I'm still in the login queue... I'll probably give this game a shot sometime later next week when hopefully it's died down a bit. Edit: Apparently this game doesn't have any kind of AFK auto kick at all, as in you don't even have to run into a wall Minsky fucked around with this message at 03:21 on Jan 17, 2016 |

Schubalts posted:There are also a shitton of costumes and accessories that you can get for free from boss token roulette, direct boss drops (open world and dungeon), faction tokens, and quest rewards. When the Wardrobe was still active, there are a bunch of costumes designed for that crazy guy who likes those gachapon-styled way of getting them - costumes you can only obtain by dismantling NCoin-paid (maybe Hongmoon Coin-paid too?) clothing to get Fabrics/High Fabric, then transmuting those fabrics. If my memory serves, it looks a bit similar to one of the costumes that are currently in the Hongmoon Store, but is more 'decent'. It was some sort of long white coat-dress thing with black pants (or stockings?).

Kimsemus posted:100% yes, and you can queue with goons manually on other servers, it is very easy to set up a lobby to do this. I appreciate this. Thanks. Basically I plan to do what I always do with F2P launches which is wait a full week and see what things look like once the dust has settled. I'd prefer to roll on Mushin because I enjoy the social aspect of joining a guild with goons, but I am one of those care bear casuals that plays MMOs for PvE 95% of the time just to relax. I don't mind waiting to see what the queue situation is after a week before I decide.

Just FYI the newest patch today (Update 8?) completely breaks launching the game for some people, so if you're logged in don't log out (although you shouldn't do that anyways if you hope to get a spot in less than 4 hours).

Yeah, it hit me as well. I guess that's one way to deal with too many people trying to log in.

Their twitter also says they're letting people transfer their founder's pack stuff (not their characters) off of Mushin and Windrest for a week. Nice I guess??? https://twitter.com/bladeandsoul/status/688532946182012928

Damnit. I was really digging my KFM alt I rolled up on some no-queue server too.

Maybe I've been a big dummy and missed something, but is the Mushin goon guild all filed up, and who are we hassling in game if there are any spaces left at the moment?

I didn't try Assassin during the prior week on TW, are they especially PvP oriented or does everyone sort of work okay in PvE? I stress too much against other people so I can't do it much

Frick, even after a relog my main quest is fuckered. It's telling me to check Soha's tab, but there's nothing marked on my map. Does anyone remember this quest? Where's the interactable?

Swapped out client.exe for one from a dropbox link () and now I can get in the game. Should I bother leveling up the early weapons? Not sure how scarce the leveling mats are, or how frequently weapons will be replaced by quests/drops.

You will be using your weapon/accessories that you get from the start of the game at the end of the game. The hongmoon weapons/accessories will keep upgrading as you feed stuff to it and evolve to a new level. Everything you find will be used to feed those items.

So far the only complaints I have about the game are Blade Dancers are Lyn only and NCSoft is involved in the running of the game. Other than that, game seems real fun.

I bumped these up from around 18-20 attack to 67 at one point and went one-shotting almost everything around. Definitely worth the time.

Items used as breakthrough material will say "breakthrough material" on the item description. You're safe to feed everything else to your hungry weapons. If you're still unsure, there is a list on the op where it tells you what you need and where you get it for every breakthrough quote:Khako posted some pics of the progression and costs for each Hongmoon item:

The Stalker step is mildly jacked up, since you can't trade or use the AH at that level without Premium. And I swear to god I got a WARLOCK weapon, and every other kind of stabby and smashy thing. But no bangle.

So, bets on how long it'll take them to implement an AFK timer? Because it's pretty apparent that people have figured out that they don't need to log out, and the queue is just going to be immortal until they do.
