brings up a question that perhaps kalstrams can answer though:

in guild pvp/castle siege/whatever are ghillie suits effects deactivated?

i can't imagine it being much fun if >50% of the enemy force is running around in them

I'm level 40 now. What would you high level guys say is the first worthy node to invest energy into for mob drops? I seem to move every 2 levels and that doesn't take more than an hour or two.

Ghille suit is borderline p2w. Pay2HaveAdvantage for sure. If/when I hit 45 and need to worry about PVP I'll get one for sure.

i would argue for putting some energy into catfish, but some would argue to skip catfish and go directly into investing at either whatever the forest things we farmed last night were and hede sanctuary or whatever it is where skeletons are

if you want the increased drops, catfish node investment must be done at the kaia lake node, not the north ferry or south ferry nodes

best bang for your proverbial buck would be hede since thats where you get witch earrings i believe

e: also for anyone hovering the 40+ range, save your ancient stone fragments; once you fuse them, you have 7 days to hit 50 (it says 45, it's lying) and use the boss scroll that results from it, better to shove it in storage and avoid setting a timer on yourself

in order to fuse them, make a plus sign with them in your inventory

lol Drythe.

The only thing bad about the cash shop is that the prices are proportionally higher here atm than in Korea. Every other complaint you have about is invalid in a game that cost you $30 and doesn't push any kind of premium sub on you.

Everything else you've said seems stupid enough to either be a low hanging fruit troll or maybe you just have sensitive feelings. Either or.

This. The "issues" are as stupid as the justification. Cash shop items are mildly helpful and not at all necessary. I do want to see the pricing come in-line with other localizations of the game.

I wouldn't be suprised if a significant portion of the playerbase was so busy trading with Velia that they don't even know where Calpheon is.

The shitbarges are strong. :colbert:

That said, you can craft a "ferry," which is a little rowboat, in the same shipyard workshops you can make rafts in. Calpheon has a special ferry which has better stop/turn speeds. Epheria and Illiya have the next tier of shipyard, which unlocks even nicer ships for crafting, but the general consensus seems to be that you should build your ship in Epheria, where you will have access to more workers, and thus a shorter construction time.

seriously these AH bots, buying up stuff and then reselling at much higher price is ridiculess -.-

BAN people doing this it is manipulating the market and fcking 99% of the community over....... people doing such bs shouldn't be allowed to play at all...

its pathetic the publisher isn't doing anything to stop this, it is worse than afk bots (bots abusing afk mechanics), since it actually directly damage everyone else while doing it by using thirdparty programs.....

Gonna need to let the forums develop for a while to make a good one still.

In the marvel heroes thread, we had a player make a song from a markov bot fed posts from one of the most prominent posters, and he had to go through the last two threads and pull all the posts. The person had a few thousand in each thread.
