It's the spiritual successor to RO really, which was the original hat collector.

I know, that's why I'm playing.

I just link TF2 anytime anyone says HAT COLLECTOR like it's an insult. it's a joke

Ahaha okay this loving patch is the ultimate troll.

Price changes everywhere.

Vendor sale price of a Demon staff before: 22k. Vendor price now? 4k.

Repair cost of staff before? like 200. Repair cost now? 4k.


Has anyone else had issues with timeouts in Mausoleam Construction site Storage room? Any time I entered the area I would time out in 5-10 minutes. Haven't tried it on the patch that just went in

I think I might have hosed up.


I thought they changed it so you could go back and take a lower level rank at the cost of a higher level rank?

I had planned on going cryo2 - linker - cryo 3, but I guess that doesn't work?


Taking a break and hoping someone responds before I just say gently caress it and take cryo3

Actually that should be totally possible, they changed the way you can pick classes at advancement to allow classes from previous ranks.

It wasn't letting me select linker for whatever reason? It was greyed out. New bug in the latest patch, lag issues. Who knows. I'll log and try again in a bit.

Edit:

Okay it was dim grey but I could still click on it. Chalk one up to me being an idiot.



That being said, this game is forcing some hard decisions. Do I want giant snowball or linking

After my first run on the level 50 dungeon and seeing how underwhelming pyromancers are in a group with fireballs that can't hit anything. The next dungeon I ran at level 90 I managed to change classes to Linker and oh my god the difference is huge. I can link everything and pull them all onto one spot for the swordsmen to smack them all with their cleaving attacks. Its really satisfying to grab a group and hear/see the giant exploding numbers fly off the screen. I really do recommend the Linker class. Its not just for grouping, I find being able to link 5 monsters together then dropping a fireball really speeds up my kill speed. I recorded the run I did earlier if anyone is interested.

I managed to get an offhand dagger off the box from the boss that run too. It gives 130ish fire damage for it but I'm not sure what fire damage is. Is it like attack damage from a weapon? Does it affect my spells? Does it only affect fire spells? Should I use a rod instead of a staff and use that as an offhand and it would give me like twice as much damage? Or is it a weapon you use to swing when attacking and completely useless for spells?

See me panicking about not being able to take linker for basically this reason. Improves the hell out of both my solo and team play. joint > hangman > ice pike is downright nasty.

Am I crazy if I think the rate isn't that bad? Maybe a tiny bit more xp and money from mobs would be nice but the quest XP feels pretty spot on to my sensibilities. And slowing it down at around 160-200 seems reasonable because by then you have 5-6 ranks under your belt and actually have options.


Also is tosbase wrong on what drops the Sestas Staff? I've been dealing with the lovely disconnects of the broken rear end Mausoleum Construction Site storage for like 5 days and grinding until the random timeouts drive me crazy, and I can't get the loving thing to drop. I've got like 15 Hastas in total, but no staff.

For me it's more that the game did such a great job avoiding this before this part. There were a couple rough patches, even then I maybe had to grind out a level or two and then maybe I could go do a dungeon or the exp curve hit a reset. But as it stands now, the 160 dungeon is worthless, the next one is 175, and the next reset is like, 180 something. I have a couple zones I could maybe go do, but that might hit me up to 165 or 166, still ten levels away from doing something that isn't grinding

I'm not really trying to doomsay the game or anything, it's pretty obvious that higher level poo poo is way unfinished, but I just wanted to hit doppel so I could spin :(

I didn't realize it got quite that bad. I'm only about to hit 100. When I say slow it down a bit, I meant a bit, not "enjoy being a snail".

Hopefully they find a balance by launch.

It's a small AOE. Can usually get about 2-3 targets.
It's definitely something to be used in grind parties to increase efficiency, not really a solo kind of ability unless you come across a white or gold mob, or are farming a specific drop.

What I really want to test next is the shrink + swell left hand combo. Together should add over 200 damage which will be insane on multi hit stuff like fireball and flame ground.

If only linked enemies actually shared debuffs.


Has anyone played around with monster gems yet? I kinda want to know how they scale when leveling them, because I'm half building around the ability to only take 1 rank of linker but still be able to get to skill 6+ in joint penalty through shenanigans.

Shame. Even +1 level would be worth it for joint though. It adds an extra link every second level, so that's one more enemy.

I didn't enjoy it nearly as much as I did my many RO servers. It felt way too linear, and the poor balancing in tos really killed the fun of some classes for me.

I know it's already been mentioned, but this game looks like it's a lot closer to RO than it really is.

ToS is very much a themepark MMO. Its probably more similiar to WoW than RO. The aesthetic and combat are good enough to make the game fun, but don't expect a modern RO.

But it very much IS what RO would be if it was made today?

RO was only RO because all those other things hadn't been established yet, and like an f2p is going to gamble with anything.
