Wait literally one day and you can join the vagrants and get stuff no one else is going to get cause no one wants to lose their school skills.

Seriously, there is a very small group of us that are betraying and the only ones I know personally that are betraying are Royal Guards, and that's because Beggars with 4th internal are better at being an RG than an actual RG is. Royal Guards have basically one good end-game set and if you're using a Jianghu inner there's literally no reason to stick around. You can always build chain set again later.

For those who downloaded the patches prior to today, you're going to have to double click on them and point them to your wushu install. Apparently they don't just let you dump them into the patch folder anymore :iiam:



E: and apparently they put a .116 to .117 patch up on the server just last night but it seems to be small (probably 10-15mb by the rate it's downloading for me through the launcher)

So I went to Peach Blossom to make sure that I can't get in without that stupid week of quests


A log.

Chinagame :china:




:frogsiren: :siren: VAGRANTS THAT BETRAYED READ THIS :siren: :frogsiren:


This guy is around 506, 456 in the Suzhou martial arts school. Talk to him if you betrayed and he hands you mountains of pill and cult to make up for the inners you lost from the school. I finished leveling my kicks to 5 and nearly all of my blade to 5. Then Self Recollection to 42 and the 2nd Vagrant inner to 29 (almost to 30, which seems to be the cap so far). I'm now sitting on tons of pills for Peach Blossom set + inner. He gave me 3859 pills total and about 1800 of those were free cult (18mil cult) and the others cultivated skills.


Also, Pibbs wanted to see my kicks in action and if I hadn't forgot that he uses Poison Toad I probably wouldn't have died. I love it. Rage move:

So how do you get unbound now?

Only way is through the 2 hour nightly kidnapping event. I'm thinking we might end up needing to make a team to do it in force so everyone doesn't die. Guess we'll see tonight. Also I'm pretty sure the first hour of kidnapping is during guild wars so double gently caress guild wars now.

Oh hello, returning hermit hero bonus. I will definitely take 30 days of VIP for free that will let me max 3rd Internal without actually having to do work.

Zhangiev shall return to the battlefield where he shall continue to be a useless Shaolin without Goosestep, but drat I'm going to have that internal maxed. So any compelling reason to reapply to the guild, or really to stick around at all once I satisfy my compulsions?

E: And yes, I am reading through the thread to catch up too.

There's a shitton more content with this patch and more quality of life changes. Also goose is hilariously cheap compared to this time last year so definitely get it.

Also if you don't like Shaolin you can always betray and join another school and quickly get back on your feet with free cultivation pills.

Wait let me see if I understood this: I cannot just renew VIP and kidnap to slowly get unbound but I need to do it at some crazy USA hour? I cannot run daily faction quest to get unbound unless I happen to be awake and online at 5am Central European Time (hahah what)?

Am I missing something here about why they would bother to have servers even up during off-USA hours?

Yeah instead of just making nonVIP only get bound they hit everyone with it which is just insanely stupid. On the plus side the economy will crash further making it easier to get some things.

True Haq, which might be excellent. Except I was concerned more about static upgrade costs on gear 10/20/40L a pop thing. Or say the cost to buy the reagent to use your gold or jade powder is like 150 unbound right?


You understand even in the USA people have different shifts for their work right? The decision does not cater to their USA market either if you push set hours for any unbound to be gathered.

Yeah it's really hosed up and fucks over US players as well since one of the hours overlaps with guild wars as well and the first 30 minutes of school wars on weekends.

It's really really really loving dumb.

The internals are 1st and 2nd internal equivalents so no they won't make you competitive. However the skillsets are amazing and people cheer me on every time I destroy people with it.

Do you know whether or not the amount of pills you get from the dude is a static amount or is it dictated by the current school level you had? I wouldnt mind quitting emei just to avoid having to sit down every time I kidnapped or kill someone. And I need to start getting to insane if I want to be a dancing princess.

The pills are dictated by the school internals you knew. I had all RG sets leveled high, 1st and 2nd inners at 30, 3rd at 36 and 4th at 30 so it gave me about 4,000 pills, of which 1900 or so were the 19 million cult I had sunk into them.

Double post but :siren: Item Renaming :siren:

Caveats:
Names are limited to 7 "words", which of course means Chinese words which makes us stuck with 7 letters.
Descriptions are limited to 30 "words", which once again means 30 letters :cripes:

5 of these + 40L renames accessories (jewelry)





Weapons cost 80L plus 5 of another item.


They changed the Black and White Undertaker Lore into something much better!

The kids never shut up for the time that they're active but they can be pretty funny. Especially when 4-5 people all summon them.

Not by Rootless, no.

You cannot castrate people on the weekends (they tested it last night) and during the week the event only activates in certain cities on certain days, ie Suzhou on Monday and Chengdu on Tuesday and so on (not sure if these are the actual days, just an example).
