Yall should join pubbie boss scroll groups and claim to have a scroll to summon, then leave when it's your turn. CM Jouska said GMs will never punish it.

This is not something the GM's will take action over, but you could always note the offending players guild and declare war on them. Also there is an NPC in the Velia Inn who will help you find a specific player for a little energy.

Valk Awakening Lance video. Probably the awakening that changes the class the least so far? It seems to be focused around charges, just counters, shield pushes and an ability that groups mobs in an area for a big gently caress off jump attack. It also has a small teaser for Bladers Halberd and Plums Spear.

Seems kinda like the greatsword, turning the classes strengths into wide AOE, could be good for group combat

GS seems to have a lot less mobility than lance but usually in group combat wider arcs are more useful than thrusts. And unless the lance has built in guard on most of its attacks, the GS would have the benefit of life leaching too. If lance has a lot of extra CC then I could see it being pretty useful, the sort of forward reach from its rushes could absolutely poo poo over rangers if they can lock them down.

Based on how those attacks look I'm going to say the gimmick is going to be having guard up while a lot of those attacks go through + counter mechanics or some such.

Sorry I meant like how the GS gives warrior cleaving, this seems to give a lot of AOE CC etc but we will see, I thought it looked neatish

If you are a warrior and you don't max EVERYTHING in Piercing Strike for PVP, you're missing out:

- Makes you stupid mobile with jumping Piercing Strike
- Life Leech
- Cleaves and can hit a bunch of people
- Gives you a spammable ranged attack
- 100% crit rate
-Knockback and spammable cast interrupt
- It's bound to the same combo as Forward Strike essentially, so you dump rage with Piercing, then it auto switches to Forward, then re-rage dumps with Piercing. Add Scars of Dusk and Spinning Strike for flavor.

Daum has admitted that the Valk kit needed help several times. Unlike other awakenings which significantly change the class, the valk awakening appears to be almost a 1:1 straight up kit upgrade.

e: The only things Valk has been lacking on KR post Mediah are: consistent movement speed, shield absorption. I doubt they will give a shield boost, but this awakening definitely gives us some more mobility, perhaps a super-armor charge, and what looks like a channeled AOE cc.

I did the world boss Red Nose as a casually geared Valkyrie yesterday, and no it was not better than that Berserker description. All of his attacks could kill me straight through block.

Also had my first sweet pvp duel yesterday when I stopped to invite someone to a party and his over-geared sorceress guildmate flagged up and two-shot me from behind.

It's not. The best I could do for safe damage was to drop spear and dodge away immediately. Hopefully that's different when I've got more levels and better gear.

Nominally I'd say your antics are totally going to get me chain killed when I hit level 45.

But I've come to terms with that, AND I do most of my leveling on a different channel.

Also holy gently caress is Wizard a monster destroying machine. Like I appreciate my warrior but the sheer amount of gently caress being thrown around by my lightning fire man is really great. So I'm probably switching mains :v:

I am going to check a couple of these tonight. I am curious about the claim of 'gold spots' being better hotspots than 'blue spots'.

I haven't afk fished in Velia in a while, they claim that is a gold spot, has anyone afk fished there lately, and if so what percentage of your inventory was golds vs blues?

I feel like Velia used to be a 'gold' spot, but the GMs probably changed it. I haven't gotten a gold fish from it since the first day I went there.

You are playing this game solo no matter the class, essentially. Currently overpowered faceroll class is Ranger but it will take you a couple hundred hours to get there.

AFK fished there for 2 hours last night while watching a couple of episodes of daredevil. Got about 6-7 gold, and a few more than that blue.

Golds are 100k, Yellow is 20k. Were you getting those?

My lowbie fishing alt with the silver fisher costume, base inventory size, and something like apprentice 7 in fishing, pulled 9 yellow fish (rest of inventory are blues) from there today from 6am-12noon when I remoted in and sold off the fish. My main with ~60 inventory slots was burning through a full steel rod and getting ~70% yellows overnight.

So yeah, it's still there, it's just slightly off the coast now. Get to the point where the cave starts on that beach and start swimming straight out from shore, you literally can't miss it on any server because of the dozens of fishing boats and rafts crammed into one tiny spot.

You'll crash to login every time you swim back to the shore, but that's a small price to pay.

Yeah, I know about the spot, it's just a pain because of the crashing, etc... I've been fishing in a separate hotspot but I get maybe 15-25% yellow and the rest blue and was wondering if there are truly better hotspots, which it sounds like might be the case.

The map posted above shows another 'golden hotspot' that's not Vellia. I may go check that out.
