Goontang is still pretty chill and people are encouraged to do what they want :ssh:

Like one of our most active officers isn't interested in pvp at all, and spends most of his playtime doing life skill stuff. There's no demands that everyone pvp.

What we did have was an element that was very unhappy with wardecs, and wanted to deprive the people interested in pvp of that content. That caused a lot of general unchillness and bitching on both sides. The element that didn't want wardecs has now mostly left, and the atmosphere in the guild has improved enormously. That's not a diss on the people who didn't like wardecs, it's just that there was a strong conflict of interest causing drama that is now resolved.

At least your guild didn't implode due to fishing pacts.

I think we can all agree on one thing though.

Regardless of the usual petty goon bickering & drama we get in every MMO, BDO is still a pretty good game.

Ya know, it's kind of weird you guys are talking poo poo about me rather than moving on with your lives. Especially Bo on the last page - like that's exactly the kind of thing that would have made him a bad leader. Yes I am now in a big pvp guild because my goon friends that left goontang happen to be there. If it doesn't work out for me that's cool too, but Magnun/Goblin/Rilani are good players who dropped because of all this petty bullshit.

Looks like much hasn't changed since I stopped playing. At least I'm finally getting to the backlog of games that have been piling up! I look forwards to the drama of when Valencia drops and everyone is busy trying to +20 their ult gear and go broke

Wut. I play this game with a 560 TI. It runs like garbage. Every time we would get into a semi large fight on the edge of a loading zone, the game would hang and either I would end up dead or teleport down the road. That made me quit over everything else.

Everyone we had dec'ed at the time kept running away from us like babies or called in an army. Mostly the former annoyed me and the latter was hilarious as we kept picking them off with our glorious guerrilla tactics.

I'm still keeping an eye on the game, just playing Overwatch and waiting for Nvidia to release the 1080 so I can play badly optimized games again.

How many big time guilds are there really anymore? Seemed like flex and maybe 2 or 3 others had actual presence. I think with the exp loss change a lot of top geared people left guilds as there was no reason to be in them at that point if they were a class that could hold their own from what I read on Reddit

If anyone is legit going to jump ship from Guild X to Guild Y then you might want to wait until node wars actually hit just to see who the paper tigers actually are.

Unless people are literally accepting anyone for any reason, in which case go nuts.

I wouldn't mind having my boat destroyed at kuit if it didn't mean I no longer had a place to dump turn ins.

Luckily a fellow friendly pirate murderer was around to give me a ride back to the main land. His boat had also been destroyed - turns out Bal o1 isn't very safe for boats.

If that was 2-3 hours ago, I was probably the culprit. I thought those were Flex boats. Sorry if I got yours on accident.

PSA to everyone: store your boat if it has coins on it. The boat war is real.

Also a lot of spots you can drag mobs to the boats to avoid a karma hit (100k karma per boat murder).

Funnily enough, the GLHF guy that gave me a ride back was convinced it had been flex.

I left the coins on my donkey so it's no big deal. But I suppose I do need to start storing the boat.

He might actually be right. The boats I killed 2-3 hours ago were actually on one of the Calphs now that I think of it. I did kill some on Bal01 earlier on though, maybe around 10 est or so.

Right before maint I killed a red Flex warrior (Jinta) on bal01 after red battlefield, and he may have initially gone red from boat murdering.

Also, did your boat both not have coins on it and get shipped to Epheria? I was under the assumption that having trade goods on the boat was what caused it to go to town instead of the wharf manager at pirates.

That's how I thought it worked too, which is why I had been dumping trade goods on the donkey. But my boat had no trade goods and I definitely couldn't recover it at velia or pirate island. I had to go back to epheria port. It's overloaded with weight, but I don't think that matters.

Also, I did the character transfer thing overnight; turns out that results in your trade good laden donkey teleporting from pirate island in order to show up with you.


Daum did another interview. Some bits are:

quote:

Valencia has been scheduled to release by end of June.
Guild Houses would be introduced and match the current Korean release
Siege/Node wars coming around in 2 weeks.

Leveling grinding nodes gives you more rare items and increased drop rate(E.g. Orge rings)
Leveling Town or Worker nodes is useless

(Regarding night vendors)
Devs have not specified any time frame.

(Regarding awakening weapons)
Current plans to release after Valencia II
Wizard/Witch won't get with the first release of awakening weapons because it would delay for other classes.
Publisher is not pushing Awakening weapons back, rather all awakening weapons will be release at the same time (except for Wizard/Witch)

Does +20 gear do extreme damage? PM doesn't want to provide more information at this time. Adjustments are going on.

(ninja/kunoichi)
When? After Valencia I
Catch up? Will be boosted EXP events
Reason for the delay? Watching rebalancing of Ninja/Kunoichi in KR

Plus the hacker bans.

It's not trade goods that stop you from remote recovering your boat or horse, it's ANY goods whatsoever in their inventory. So if your boat had things in it, it would only go to the closest dock.

There's a recording of the stream here. That question starts at 00:41:30, and they explicitly say that investing in worker or town nodes does nothing. He went on to say that due to player feedback, the devs are considering changing it so that investing in these worker and town nodes does provide something.

If they banned everyone who tripped xigncode there would be no one left.

I have also had it randomly trigger overnight.
