MY OPINION IS SEERS OF THE THRONE PROPAGANDA IGNORE MY GNOSIS-IMPAIRED RAMBLINGS
Gahaha. If you spec right you can literally drop like a dozen heart stab/lightning crashes as an assassin per stealth. And you can pretty much spam stealth forever.

All people get to see is a weeaboo blur before my assassin cloaks behind them and just unleashes a loving thunderstorm's worth of lightning powered kung fu punches. This is great.

I'm doing like 4k-6k damage every few seconds at level 20. The people I was in an instance with earlier didn't know what the gently caress was going on. :allears:

Which is drat strange.

they're pirates. it's what they do. they used to be the stratus navy, and then highland central happened so now they're pirates. Gwon ends up helping you in act 4 because he owes you a debt and namsoyoo is a traitorous slut. poh and hae mujin respect you for being stronk enough to fight them. as is common in wuxia, everyone save a tiny few all have their own nuances and are not good nor evil. gently caress yonkai though.

Once you can put points into your skills at 17.

I like Ice Tank Wizard. Get Ice Rain, kill things before you even begin fighting.

That might sound odd, but really, that's how it works. Combat doesn't start until something is hit - you or the enemy. Ice Rain is a delayed hit after cast. I hardly touched RMB or LMB between 20 and 38.

It's been a little bit since I played the character, but these are the skills at 38:
Ice Rain (Dragonchar: Tier 3 Stage 4) - this is the kill poo poo before combat skill, you don't need Tier 3 until Cold Snap.
Dragonwhorl (Tier 4 Stage 1) - Healing, Focus, CC, Defense, what more could you want?
Frost Fury (Tier 3 Stage 3) - Healing, Focus, you get to use when you crit - you should do so.
Cold Snap (Ice Coil: Tier 3 Stage 3) - note Ice Rain's interaction with this skill

Flow of combat is pretty much walk up to some poor gently caress, spam Ice Rain, drop Cold Snap if it's beefier. Dragonwhorl when it's up, same with Frost Fury.

That's it. Well, okay, I randomly put points into other skills but honestly don't need them...
Frost Sheath (Tier 3 Stage 2) - protect yourself from a hit basically
Snowball (Tier 4 Stage 1) - strong single hit after freezing poo poo with Dragonwhorl
Frost Palm (Tier 4 Stage 1) - On the off chance you haven't murdered everything yet... RMB hits hard at this tier
Probably could get use out of Impact with Tier 3 Stage 1, I just haven't used it.

You can get around this by putting something heavy on one of your attack buttons. For summoner it's "2". GG

I've been trying to get to platinum in the arena but getting my butt kicked to the moon by destroyers and blade dancers. Got to 1751 and started falling so I'm still a long way off but I want to get there eventually! Is there any goons good at PvP that would like to spar with me, preferably destroyers or blade dancers so I can learn how to do better? Or anyone has any tips to fight them as a summoner.

Add me at Velveteen in game and just ask me for a spar. It doesn't matter if you're good or bad I'll be willing to spar if I'm not busy with dailies.

Does anyone have a good source for end game soul shields?

I keep finding conflicting or wrong information.

I farmed the Moonwater Arena set from faction insignias, but I don't really care about open world PvP in this game, so I kind of want whatever's best for PvE.

Should I just get a full Blackram Supply set, or fuse some of that onto my Moonwater set, or I think I read Dokumo's crit is even better on certain pieces?

I'm a destroyer by the way

You're going to need the Blackram Supply set anyway otherwise the Venomous Thrasher is going to wreck your day.

The game crashes everytime I try to watch the opening cinematic. I ended up skipping it and I didn't run into any problems and I could watch the end movie at the tutorial just fine... And then the game crashed again for the next opening cinematic. :(

I've tried to re-install the client and various other workarounds people have suggested when I google it, but it doesn't seem to have solved anything other than instead of immediately crashing, it just takes ten more seconds to do so.

What are the restrictions on weapon glamor? I bought a cool looking simple sword to cover my ridiculous fantasy thing but it says I can't use it.

Also I actually like the starter sword better than the Hongmoon or the look it has now, but it can't use that one either.

I don't know what the most minimalist is but the... plague? ones from that first roulette basically look like (very red) gauntlets so I've been using those for a while.

She can't be a Gon, because her outfit on wardrobe preview makes both Jin and Yun just as flat if not flatter than a Lyn regardless of your chest size settings while Gon alone has something.

No restrictions as far as I can tell. You can even use stuff that is too high of a level for you to actually equip just fine.

It's very incomplete, and missing a lot (most?) of weapon skins, at least for certain weapons like Staff.

It seems some (or maybe all) of the weapons you can buy off of weapon merchants are unable to be used. It even says right in the tooltip.

Venomous Thrasher is the first boss of Bloodshade/Nightshade Harbor, the upcoming 6/24 man dungeon for the Feb 10 patch, in which we have to fight Poharan's grandfather in a giant wrestling ring at the end while Admiralmania runs wild all over us.
