Somehow, even though the ping is pretty high, the actual "feel" of the combat is extremely smooth on both sides. All hits feel pretty accurate and fast-paced dueling I have no problems other than my own failure to connect hits as a slayer. (Goddammit overhand strike! )

I am kinda glad it gets better in later areas, but there's always going to be some idiot who brings it in that direction again. And it happens all the time, so you eventually start thinking you're at fault if you ever write in area chat.

Guild master turned kinda creepy today. Other members were disturbed by his behavior and are still nice though, but I'm gonna stay on the ready to drop this if it gets too weird.

They have a TeamSpeak server. I need to investigate how deep the rabbit hole goes. Tomorrow. For now I need to sleep on this. cathead posted:You can't just say that and then not tell us what happened! If you really feel you are ready for it. It started innocuously enough, just normal small-talk and teasing about eating a fellow popori, jokingly. Then suddenly across the guild chat the guild leader molested the nipples of one of the other guildies. Silence struck across the channel and only shocked faces were posted. The target participated in what I can only assume was a way to sate the aggressive approach of their leader. I called them out on their hypocrisy. It fell on deaf ears and was subsequently drowned out in feeble attempts at humor and then silence. Then today. The guild master led a provocatively offending conversation. I let it slide, passing it off as a momentary loss of control of hormones and a lack of proper vent-age. Then they went into proper detail of licking "Elin Honey" and I couldn't stay silent any more. I called him out on his perversion. He didn't respond. I didn't let the conversation drop. I challenged him on grounds of being a creepy gently caress. Turns out it's actually a she. And she is actually homosexual. I wasn't prepared for that avenue. It's still creepy, but it was too late, I had gone out on the wrong threshold. I tried to deny it to be true, but someone I trust more than her confirmed her identity. I decided to pursue the obvious. I had miscalculated. She had no shame. To spare the other guild members a discussion that would ultimately just run trite, I decided to stop arguing in this pointless fashion. Investigating TeamSpeak is my next option if I care to. Thoughts goons? Mind you, this isn't a serious guild and the rest of the members are more tolerable, but I don't have any idea how to approach this, like at all.

Small update; My friends have had it with creepiness from guild leader, so we've decided to leave it today. Means I'll probably skip the TeamSpeak server thing since I don't have it installed. I'll make sure to copy it so I still have it though, if someone can think of something funny to do with it. I don't want a goon-rush though, because I still think some of the guild members are genuinely nice and non-creepy. We'll probably just try some other guild, unless someone has an idea that proves more funny. EDIT: I don't regret anything, because I laughed so hard at certain points of this guild, it was totally worth it.

Oh well. Friends didn't want to transfer because they don't like PvP stuff and they wanna try roleplay. Had some stuff happen in real life today, so I didn't get to do much with the guild business, though I did tell the guild leader how lovely I thought it was and she promised to tone it down. I'll give it a few days.

I love that skill and being able to read the boss pattern is the difference between success and failure more than your level is. Even if level is a very good help, it's always fun to solo a basilisk. While level 17.

WhiteBoyShuffle posted:One thing I am starting to dislike about it, is how dense the mobs seem to be. I'm currently fighting Deveas in Oblivion Woods, and it seems that I am getting more unwanted mobs because I happen to sidestep a bit too far when trying to get out of the way of an attack. If it is much worse after this, I am not sure if I can handle it. Oblivion Woods is kinda early on. I reckon the problem you have with the Deveas is that they take more than a single hit from you. If you just do all the quests, you'll eventually out-level your area by a ton (especially if you start helping people do BAM's like basilisks or BOL for a few weeks) and then you'll be swiping encounters like that with one hit and it will just feel so good.

BobTheJanitor posted:In case people hadn't noticed it, the founder gift of fake money for the in-game store showed up a few days ago. I can't find anything worth buying with 550 funbux though. Time limited costumes and mounts are the stupidest thing. Are any of the RNG boxes worth buying? Or maybe I should just get keys and continue to throw them on the trade broker for 100g each. Although the Valentines event has kind of overflowed the market on those. From my experience with dyes in game, it isn't a flat 7 days period and then the item is gone, it's 7 days played in-game. Or at least, I think it is. The 550 extra EMP was what I needed to buy another set of outfits. I really wish it had more variety though.

BobTheJanitor posted:So it's either subscribe to the game or play a crippled demo version, basically? Terrible. Makes me really glad of Tera's F2P model. Hell that almost entices me to buy a few more months of subscription to Tera just to reward them for doing it right, when such an atrocious example of how to do it wrong exists in SWTOR. The worst of it is that this is exactly the kind of bad publicity that SWTOR really didn't need to survive, considering how much money they invested into an MMO that ended up not paying back the revenue lost.

I'm European, so maybe my standards are different, but I don't really get what the hell they censored. To me, it just looks like they have some kind of aversion to belly-buttons. I mean, if it was actually explicit I could see it, but as it is they just went from "not how I'd dress up my daughter" to "not how I'd dress up my daughter 2".

This game never really informed me how important enchanting gear would be to having fun. I don't think this thread did either. I hit around level 40 on my slayer and noticed leveling got really slow and playing got kinda bothersome. Then someone in my new guild decided to inform me about "how to really play the game". So, according to her, I should make sure I have the latest epic gear for my level, make sure it is enchantable and at least bring everything up to +6, while using the stuff I find on quests as fodder to make my epics more powerful. And it made the game instantly more fun, albeit I made the mistake of reading what my items were and thus have two non-enchantable gears on me, but live and learn. Also, selling everything on the broker seems like a good idea.

tearshed posted:It would probably help if you described "the contest". Huh, I guess I'm the only one reading it while it checks for patches. My friends didn't see it either until I pointed it out to them. Master the Dark Arts contest Which is basically an art contest, where you may use any manner of artistic insight to represent the "dark side" of your character. The reward is basically a unique wepaon-skin, which range from awful to kinda funny. You are given pretty free reign in terms of using screenshots, drawing or photoshop editing to represent the darkside of your character. It doesn't make mention of how many can win or anything, so I assume they'll pick people who put in some effort. To participate, it must be your own character and it must be showing his/her dark side.

Always at least bring everything through the broker once. Sometimes you can even put up white items worth a decent gold or a green item that you could vendor for a few silver selling for roughly 50 gold on the broker. Crystals that drop are always better than what you can find in stores too. If you can solo some BAMs, the often drop them, I've found.
