I've been itching for an MMO to immerse myself in (to escape the pain and suffering of real life, of course). This game has been hella fun so far. I'm a level 38 wizard (110 CPs) and I just got to Calpheon. I've been spending a lot of time questing & crafting. Haven't really felt the need to go grind mobs to get to 45+ yet, which is nice. There's just so much poo poo you can do in this game. Currently working on decking out my horse with Horse Gear Workshop 3 poo poo, got my sitrrups this morning! Can't decide if I want to go boat or wagon next...probably boat. This game gets a lot of little things right. Like being able to have huge stacks of items, is there a limit to how many ores you can have in a single stack? I also like that hp/mp pots are easy to get and you can use them frequently (unlike blade & soul). Built in afk strength training & fishing is neat too, are they mining bitcoins when my game is in the system tray or something? My only gripe is the loving escort quests. God drat that stupid wounded villager in the Khuruto cave or whatever it was, took loving forever to get her back to the soldier and the server crashed before I could turn in so I had to do it all over again. What's up with that alluvian gold quest? I thinned like 60 bottles of river water and didn't get poo poo. And they want like 10 of them??

So this game looks interesting but I've only tried it for 15 minutes back in beta and it seemed boring as I remember running around as a hunchbacked sweaty giant named Sweaty Animedad with a wide-rear end grin with two axes being told by a black shadow monster to slaughter goblins, and not understanding poo poo out of how any of my abilities nor the abilities given by the class trainer worked. Most of my friends however have started playing this and it's apparently a blast. My only experience with MMOs are basically theme park MMOs and lately I'm enjoing Blade & Soul quite a lot, so I've a few questions. 1. Is this game incredibly grindy? 2. Is the PvP balanced like B & S? B & S, for the most part, has it down to individual skill for you to take down someone although it's not open PvP, it's mostly based on arena PvP. 3. How griefable is this game?

My only experience with MMOs are basically theme park MMOs and lately I'm enjoing Blade & Soul quite a lot, so I've a few questions. 1: Yes it is grindy, but as it is a sandbox you can pretty much do whatever the gently caress you want, there is no determined endgame goal. 2: gently caress no, it's highly gear dependent for the top 1%, and the top 1% can steamroll the other 99% at level cap. Below that it turns into who can inhale the most health potions while down. 3: Very. Since the game practically encourages AFK grinding, goons love to run around ganking idiots who are AFK while doing fishing, travelling, whatever. You get lovely angry people who whisper you 15 minutes after you kill them and they come back to their keyboard and discover you killed them for being AFK in a PVP zone. Also, a plan we are hypothesizing is how to block a major trade route between two major cities early in the game, and let no one though. E: If you are confused and need help, jump into mumble and ask questions, the people in there will help you find the answer or will mock you for missing an obvious thing. Either way you will learn how to do <thing>. orange juche fucked around with this message at 00:29 on Apr 20, 2016 |

randombattle posted:I was told that it doesn't make a difference in pvp. None of those do. The big benefit of that is that most of the endgame mobs are humans and demihumans. I mean the plus of the yuria is that upgrade is +ap as well as +accuracy. Looks like some dude tested it... it almost looks the same as AP, but I'm sure the weird exponential(?) scaling of AP doesn't apply? I don't know. http://forum.blackdesertonline.com/index.php?/topic/72089-ap-vs-human-damage-tests/

Kaedric posted:The more I read about this game and play it, the more I think no one has the slightest clue how anything actually works (for example, titles giving 'luck' when enchanting). In light of this I will choose to ignore korean wisdom about what is the 'best' gear set and try something other than Yuria. I think Azwell or Seleth might be good options to +15. Azwell is what I'm using. Interestingly, the blue version (Destruction, etc) gets +2~+2 AP over the green version, which puts it very close to Yuria/Krea.

No to the marketplace spam. You can also get powder by grinding the upgrade crystals you get. Green ones only give a few, but the high level ones give a lot.

I'm considering getting this but I don't want to do anything but make a blader and kill things until I can kill people. If I do not make alts or engage with any of the other dumb sims poo poo this game seems to want to make me do am I going to never be able to effectively kill people? I've read about the grindyness of the game and I'm okay grinding battlegrounds/arenas and some amount of PvE combat stuff but will I gimp myself by not AFK fishing or whatever other stuff they've conjured up to make me feel like I'm playing a game?

That's how I am playing and am doing okay. 2 weeks in lv 52 with +15 weapon and mostly +10ish armor. I would fish while you sleep at least, it is a decent passive currency generator. I played the first week without staying online at night, but you lose out on a lot of small things. Energy regeneration, pets leveling faster to 10 if you leave them out overnight, crystals for scrolls...

You can play it that way, yes. But there's so much stuff you can do and you will, I'm sure, want to do more than just level up. In any case the game's well worth the 30 bucks.

Karnivool posted:Whats the best city to setup in, was thinking Heidel as it seems fairly central to everything? That depends entirely on what you want your workers to do. Even though 90% of my stuff is in Calpheon and Keplan I keep a couple workers mining constantly in the cliffside caves near Velia, though I have to manually collect the ore if I want it. If you just mean "where is a good place for a house + bank expansion" then basically that's going to be down to personal preference to a degree. Anywhere not Ilya basically.

How bad will the Samurai population be 2-3 months down the line after initial hype dies down? Maybe they'll move onto Ninja by then, since everyone who seems to be going Blader is a huge weeb.

I don't think the distance bonus is in your favor if you make crates there so that's all I use it for. Good plan. I'll gently caress around with those to start, and maybe the level 3 armor workshop since it's a branch-off of the group that has the stable expansions anyway. I'm on Iliya Island right now setting up my Shipyard, and I notice there's a crop workbench here. Would it be worth making crates here to move inland and sell later, once I have this place hooked up to my trade network? lewtt posted:http://forum.blackdesertonline.com/index.php?/topic/74101-patch-notes-april-20th/ I don't know what hardly any of this poo poo is, yet, but that many "increased"s cannot be bad.

You're supposed to get bonuses like rested exp for leaving the game, not stay connected 24/7. I live in Texas so there's like 20 days a year where I wouldn't mind leaving my computer on overnight.
