I keep hoping for a better looking to transmute for this reason but I haven't found anything that can be applied.

Apparently Reddit has adopted Old Man as their server.

So I found out that razor background processes were causing B&S to crash my client. I disabled the services following the below link.

http://www.bladeandsouldojo.com/topic/141060-constant-crashing-solved-finally/

TLDR: Go to task manager and disable anything related to Razor

Hope this helps anyone with similar issues.

that anticheat they run for this game sure does weird things huh

the fan management program for my Corsair stuff causes BnS to freak out and BnS tries to murder the process and it fights back and tries to kill BnS back

this causes an infinite loop of processing hating each other and I get about 2 FPS, so I gotta kill that Corsair thing before launching BnS

I'm liking the game and I do actually like the kMMO system of 'throw lots of small shiny things at the player' when it isn't that expensive so I'm looking forward to playing pretty princess kung-fu dressup. The only thing I really miss is a 'preferred player' system like TERA and SWTOR has (pay money once for small account upgrades) because more character slots would have been nice!

Well since all the goon servers are full guess I'll just have to roll up a character on the good old Unofficial RP Server. I've always wanted to sit around in a public area spending 3 hours listening to some guy describe his character's backstory or flirting with girls who are actually guys.

Oh man, I can only imagine what this game is going to attract considering the horrors of Tera and STO. You are going to find so many lesbians ERPing.

By which I mean dudes ERPing with other dudes exclusively, but god help you if you point out Lolita McElftits and Jailbait Squeakyvoice are actually a couple men. It ruins their immersion you see.

Also by immersion I'm talking about their erection.

So is it just clans that require same faction, or can you not even form groups with people on opposite faction? On that note, any other goons at 45? Tried doing Blackram Supply Chain with pugs, didn't work out super well, wondered if people were going to get groups together.

You can also change faction for a few silver, factions only really matter when you put on your outfit and for clans (which are mainly there to support PVP)

Why is the EU guild red team? It seems like every single pubby on the server joined red team and is wearing their faction colours, I kinda want to swap and murder them.

Jiwan for US, Ebon Hall for EU. I'll probably actually join up on Jiwan if only because I like reading melodramatic background chatter while I craft in town. I did that on FF14 and it made long crafting periods less boring. Kinda like watching soaps while doing chores

Cool, it only takes 4 more hours to download the client. It'll probably take another hour or so to unpack and install so that means I'll be just in time for the joy of playing a MMO during primetime on launchday :suicide:

Last I heard, the RPers are in Jiwan along with the BRs. The RPers are in blue faction and the BRs are in red faction, so you'll have the choice of enduring the RP'ing that probably goes on in faction chat or a language that you probably wouldn't fully understand unless you lived in Brazil for a few years, even if you knew Spanish or Portuguese.

Having said that, I don't know how Mushin faction chat is like during US prime time, but on the times I get on (usually after midnight US PST due to living in Australian EST, on weekdays) the chat feels like as if I'm in a 4chan clan, except it's the faction. It really makes me feel like I should block faction chat at times, with all the constant weeaboo and waifu calling and the terrible 'am I cute anon' stuff that goes on.
On the other hand, I do get to enjoy having no queue times when I log in and being able to do quests at a good speed, because there isn't a million people camping that one Destroyer guy you must kill no matter what to progress the main story for example (I didn't have to wait when I got up to it, which was surprising), so at least I can ignore the chat entirely and focus on playing. The ones spamming emotes are hard to ignore because those emotes pop out from the edge of your focus, though.

Good news, fellow goon! NCSoft has already thought of people like you. Why, they even provide a special title for killing 1000 people each from both sides with a single character. Or maybe not, because I've read that achievements are account-wide - or was it only unlocked titles?
Having said that, I don't know if the pubs are trying to pick a fight or is just being really careless about what they're wearing. I'm still doing the Cinderlands and I've seen similar leveled people running around and questing/field boss killing around both Crescent Lake and that Mirage place with their faction outfits on, but they usually manage to avoid each other or don't fight each other during or after the boss stomping.

I made a guild on Jiwan with some RL friends if any goons need a clan on blue side. Send a message to Vellamorn or give me your name here and I'll invite you whenever I'm on.

Also on the very first day, Franbunny was shouting down people in chat who didn't want this to be the unofficial RP server. :allears:

I will laugh if they add an afk timer to this game and the solution ends up being the same as FFXIV: Being in a conversation with an NPC or object.

that corsair app/driver is a pile of poo poo. I've bitched to the chinese engineers about this before moving back to logitech. logitech has solved this problem for a decade. they use this nifty "virtual usb bus" for their macro keyboards so the script actions appear to come from the device and not a 3rd party helper app.

because you should never need to eat a dumpling if you are playing the game right (don't get hit, fool) and dumplings scale to max level so they're mostly useful for high level people with actual challenging things that they want to heal up for

You'll get plenty of dumplings as drops and such while leveling, don't worry too much about it. Gold income jumps up pretty hard too as you get near cap.

Also a note to anyone who hasn't noticed: opening the treasure chests in caves and stuff (the ones with the green indicator) WILL consume a key when you do so... be careful with those if you want to conserve keys.

I've been farming the Stalker Jiangshi and maxed out my Hongmoon weapon and am super OP now. Are you saying I shouldn't be opening those blue weapon chests for Hongmoon keys? Or do you mean the special keys that guarantee a class weapon?

Just the regular "Key" item that is used to open a chest costs almost 5 silver, Hongmoon Keys are basically the same you just can't trade them. Don't use up your keys to open weapon chests unless they give you your weapon evolution (I'm thinking mostly about the part in the desert where you have to farm that giant guy), since if you run out of keys you need to either buy more which you probably won't be able to afford or grind dailies which you're limited to a certain number of. If you don't waste keys on irrelevant stuff you should have enough even if you're unlucky. When you need to upgrade your weapon, it'll tell you what weapon you need for the breakthrough and where to get it, so you'll know whether or not you should be opening those weapon chests.
