Just thought I'd give this game a try, attempting to play on the EU servers and I'm getting account authentication errors. A quick glance at reddit and the game's forums and it seems like there's a server issue with everyone bitching about this being common on the EU servers. Is it a bad idea to play on EU and should I just roll a character on NA instead?

NA servers aren't having those issues but they are going through some pretty hard lag from time to time. I need to check whether or not my tunnel is having issues or if the server is crapping out, a few seconds later faction chat erupts saying that the server is going to poo poo

On the flip side, yesterday my entire team (summoner included) was getting rocked by a BM. If he wasn't countering my attacks and knocking me into the air he was dashing behind me and then knocking me into the air. Really good at chasing me after I F out of a knockdown too. The only reason our team won was that Fury came off cooldown when we were both last men standing and at like 10% health each.

What's the best way to deal with BD's parry Vortex spam in PvP? Outranging it doesn't work since BD seems to have a billion abilities that stun at range, and you can't CC the BD when he does it because of the CC resist thing or even DPS race because of the parry component.

When the weights come off at 50 you will be all the better because you'll already have the core knowledge to work off of and use your new tools in the most effective way. Do FMs ever get to take their clothes off or is this advice mostly for all the demoralized BMs? And do we know any up to date stats on Warlock representation in the regions that have them? I know they were regarded as kind of busted on release but don't know anything about their overall performance post-whatever patch toned them down.

Irony.or.Death posted:Do FMs ever get to take their clothes off or is this advice mostly for all the demoralized BMs? Yes, but I mean, you're still going to have to get good at the class. Some classes just have a higher potential ceiling but require more work to get there. FMs and BMs fall under this, KFMs as well. Also warlocks were pretty nasty in Korea for awhile, but this latest patch specifically (the December one in Korea) had some pretty heavy pvp nerfs for them and they seem to have fallen off a bit. That being said, I'm sure there will be a surge of them getting to higher ranks on our release just on account of people not knowing how to play against them.

I did it! I got the pirate princess outfit after so many runs of that place. Next goal is Junhado's hat. I already got the bodyguard armour from him so just the hat left.

Hy_C posted:Junghado is a fun fight. Beat him with just infernal jewelry and true profane weapon as a kfm. Could have made it easier if I used the misty woods necklace. I don't know how all these other KFMs are struggling unless they have a weapon weaker than that. What's your DPS rotation as KFM on Junghado? I've just been mashing 2R and Searing Blow/Hellfire Kick as they proc. I specced Searing Blow to reduce cd on Searing Palm so I can try to keep up the 4 stacks as often as possible. I don't have the Misty Woods necklace either (nor do I have the practice to do the PVP style Searing Palm kill combo anyways). I'm using awoken profane weapon with a +25ap diamond and infernal jewelry, but I can only get him down to 30% before time's up. Of course, getting him down to 30% only means I'm like halfway there really because he wastes so much time doing pentastrikes.

I kfm him with that searing blow build, the key things to remember is to use his counter to stun via RMB and you can then do a shin kick to get another searing stack, while also just when you reach searing 4 keep him cclocked and wail. Your dash back into LMB knockdown is also really good, as is using dodges offensively especially during his spam slash phases ( the long thin rectangle of yellow)

Is assassin PVE really just based in perma-stealthing and pressing RMB->F over and over again? I love the class thematically but if doing, say, Mushins tower involves wailing on the boss while he stands there I'm not sure I can be bothered to level one.

It is going to change significantly. Firstly, all bosses at level 50 and some currently have True Sight which lets them see through stealth. Secondly, a shadow build instead of lightning build is much more common at 50. Some key parts of that build are missing currently, but a non-stealth build lets you be much more consistent in dungeon groups. But yeah I don't find assassin PvE currently to be particularly engaging.

My accessories are at infernal and my weapon is at awakened siren. Upgrading accessories will give a bigger upgrade than upgrading my weapon to true siren. But if I upgrade my accessories it will delay upgrading my weapon to awakened pirate. Is the pirate upgrade better than just upgrading accessories? I've been trying to find out what people think but its pretty split on what is suggested to upgrade first. Perhaps someone with more experience can help.

I've been trying to find out what people think but its pretty split on what is suggested to upgrade first. Perhaps someone with more experience can help. A lot of people in this game have unreasonable obsession with weapons over accessories/soul shields. If you want the math, in your case upgrading from Awakened Siren 10 weapon to True Siren 10 will be 7AP and nothing else. In contrast upgrading from Infernal 10 to Awakened Siren 10 ring will be 2AP, 152 Crit Dmg and 236 Crit. Just with straight damage alone, the ring provides more than twice as much damage increase as the weapon. If you add in extra benefits from crit such as focus or procs, it's even higher. The formula involved are: Base Dmg = AP*skill modifier+Additional Dmg Average Dmg = Base Dmg * (1+ Crit Chance*(Crit Dmg -1)) Both crit chance & dmg need to be in percentages, not points for that. Note: the jumps are particularly big for Awakened Infernal to Awakened Siren accessories because it seems like we somehow skipped "True Infernal" there. The evolutions after that are more in line.

It's probably becasue in a lot of other games weapon provide a weapon damage modifier, like in FFXIV which makes them humongous powerful for increasing DPS and that sought of thought propagates to B&S

What the hell If you're getting killed in pvp, respawn with 3 instead of 4, so you respawn without your faction clothes on and so you can't immediately die again.

I ended up having to because three people who weren't dressed before ended up dressing up to camp me. I'm fine with impromptu PvP but there should not be a loading screen to move three feet. Or no feet, in case of the second time. Oh well, I guess 3 and then redress.

It's really difficult to make anything resembling a person with the butt slider any higher than minimum. Breast slider is in a similar position but arguably less noticeable and less over the top. Pun intended though. Boobs.

Just keep him CC'ed and keep 3rx or 3rf comboing when you can. I also liberally Q,E to get more triple kicks or block to get in another daze in to keep on comboing. Don't forget to use Tab. The fight's not to hard just remember to keep on fitting in 3r and use hellfire kicks to trigger searing palm. Also avoid doing air combos unless you really need the breathing room if you messed up dodging.
