I havent had a plrecription for my eyes in years so the other day I went and got a new one and it hasnt changed. The doctor was like why havent you seen us in 4 years? I told them im scared of op tomietris when the air shoots into your eyes and dilation. They told me my eyes cold get worse....
I think the first thign they can do to get people interested in their game is to LET THE UFCKING PLAY IT

how loving stupid are they

I mean, you can sell that talt to a npc vendor for 5k a piece. Then your net loss is smaller. 60k is peanuts later on anyways.

Yeah, that was my loss after reselling. But then I dropped a Wizard Bracelet while questing, so all complaints withdrawn.

I got ripped off 800k because there is no warning you are trading with a non-token player and if a non-token player trades with you all the items are marked Untradeable after the trade completes (yes even items that would remain tradeable had they been purchased in market)

so I have a useless item I can't share stash to another character, or resell, and imc support has so far been completely useless

the trade system is all kinds of bullshit so just watch yourselves

Servers will be open again soon: https://treeofsavior.com/news/?n=494

In kTOS news, they added a system where you can equip boss cards to your character to gain special effects (big list here: http://pastebin.com/PrCkZ21n). You can equip 1 card per character rank. Also, they buffed the splash range of a bunch of swordsman skills by some unspecified amount. They also changed the STR stat so that it now gives block pen per point, and possibly more for swordsman than for other classes? Unconfirmed.

Good news: I got the server running and logged in and ran around a bit.

Bad news: They've basically only implemented login. All the NPCs have the same text, there are no mobs, etc.

that list is missing quite a few of the previously datamined classes/costumes, I wonder if the others will be hidden or r9

Bombs away!
Got the MMO itch again and tried out this terrible thing, but from skimming the forums I found out that I apparently hosed my first character (turns out swordsman rank 2 is useless). Good thing I didn't get far yet and loot seems to be unbound so I can just toss all the garbage to a new dude. Any tips on a couple of different, non-borked swordsman builds? Apparently peltasta is required as the second class if you want to run dungeons later on?

Also, does the game get any more open-ended later on? So far it seemed like a straight pipe with no open world elements; kill the stuff a guy tells you to kill in area 1, then follow arrow to area 2, repeat. Are there any more options later?

EDIT: Also, is it possible to respec skill & stat points, or do I need to min/max plan those in advance as well? Google says it was possible earlier, not sure now?

depends on what you mean by "open world". there are two starter cities but most new players just do one chain and end up underleveled and confused. there are also several mid level zones that questlines don't point you towards. if you just mean big empty zones with mobs and no quests (content), high levels are nothing but that right now

you need to plan your stats and skills in advance, they can only be respecced with the cash shop/special event items itos hasn't gotten yet

You can do sword 1 pelt 1 hoplite 3 doppel 1 dragoon 1. That is a pretty standard build.

You can respec skills with a potion that is in the store. This costs real money.
You cannot respec your class selections.
There are potions to respec your stat choices, but so far they have only been for people who bought the founder packs. Just assume that you can never respec your stat selections either because that will probably be the case. So try to find a good stat build. Str is a pretty poor stat in terms of dps(but not as bad as int), so either just pump con or leave the points unspent until you decide later. Having a ton of unspent points isn't going to make or break anything since most of your damage comes from your weapon.

There's also pelt1-hop1-cata3-dragoon, if you like to ride things and move fast. I'm going this way for a templar, though I'd really like more levels of finestra.

All of the new skills they previewed are real disappointing :(

especially the necromancer one that continue to apply decay(increases missile damage), but none of the wizard skills benefit from it :iiam:

I hope the other classes get some crazy poo poo.
