A Bunch of Old Men posted:So this game looks pretty neat and everything I have checked up on says the combat system is amazing. I played Age of Wushu for a good while and I was wondering if any of you guys and gals that played Wushu could tell me if the games are comparable besides the whole wuxia-themed stuff. I don't play MMO's that often but what I liked about Wushu was the combat and the dickery that you could get into with other people. Side note that character creator looks like I could have a lot of fun with it. combat is basically wushu's but more streamlined/fightan-ish, cant be as much of a dick but there IS world pvp (voluntary) and lots of 1v1/3v3 dickwaving. There aren't 'schools' so much as actual classes, but the BD&BM is basically wu dang and the kfm is a mix of beggars and scholars.

My eyes did linger on 'It gets pretty grindy' which for a KMMO could mean many different things. yes a summary would be"check the OP again" because that literally has a summary.

9foxtails posted:Well, if discovered why no founders pack for me. Digital River runs the payment processing and physical and billing address don't match due to living abroad. It was the same problem I had with FFXIV ARR, until they released it on steam. Guess the only way for me to play is the "grindy" way. Hopefully, it is good enough to keep me interested. honestly i'd say the same thing i always do to anyone looking at a new F2P. try to play betas and (failing that now obviously) stay f2p unless you or some guys you've played with before recommend it. BnS is certainly my cup of tea but i freely realize it might not be everyone's. if you like: Cheezy Wuxia punchmans, 1v1 arena dickwaving, or CRAAZZZYY movesets, you'll enjoy this game. In my opinion. Edit: as far as keeping you interested once you've started, leveling is easy and can if you poopsock it be done in a single day of play (by which i mean 16 hours of grind and knowing a few tips along the way). expect to quite comfortably hit 45 within 2-3 days of 'usual' levels of playing time, 5-6 if you're the type who can only spare a couple of hours a day to punchman pixels.

9foxtails posted:Sound good. So the game is pretty accessible. I'm planning to level up over the course of a few days. However, if I plan to grind it out, would you please detail the finer points of "poopsocking"? What brands and cotton blends hold maximum volume with minimum leakage? the rule i was always told whenever i asked was "ignore sidequests til level 9 or 10, and then only do the ones that give 1K+ xp" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeCCiZ4_WwI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ictMQ1oZrpA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOiF_2bj12M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liSSb6qAk5w https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3zQ-KHHmM0 For the avid depends user, check these out. Do note that these guides also assume you are A: premium user and B: using cash shop combat xp boosters (aka more xp for mob kills) and also contain major major story spoilers I wouldn't advise poopsocking this badly unless you had a 45 or two from cbt. if you're fresh, enjoy the ride. its the most wuxia plot i've seen in a while.

tyblazitar posted:I'm having some problems figuring out the soul shield enhancing thing since nothing in the game seems to tell you how it works. Specifically, how do I know whether I can use a specific shield piece to enhance my current soul shield? It seems like half the ones I get don't work and I can't figure out why. Set A cannot be used to improve set A. if you have, say the stalker set from the first wheel, you cant use that set to improve it. you'll need a differently named set. note this applies to different rarity, same name...so for instance, the endgame blackram supply sould shield (purple) cant be fused with the blue version of said set

Gearhead posted:The Blackram, in a funny way, seem to be some of the most honest and straightforward people IN this game. they're pirates. it's what they do. they used to be the stratus navy, and then highland central happened so now they're pirates. Gwon ends up helping you in act 4 because he owes you a debt and namsoyoo is a traitorous slut. poh and hae mujin respect you for being stronk enough to fight them. as is common in wuxia, everyone save a tiny few all have their own nuances and are not good nor evil. gently caress yonkai though.

Endings posted:Is there anywhere that has a decent overview of Blade Dancer and what combos into what? Just trying to get a feel for how to do it properly as I blunder into Arena. (Decent winrates against everything but assassins, so far.) My personal build focuses on air combos and getting them as often as you can. spec 2 into stun, your draw 2 into stun, your V into a vacuum daze, your grip 3 into a daze, and your x into a daze AND knockup daze target. if all goes right, you basically never let them leave the air.

Karistar posted:It's time for one of those 'think too much into the story' posts! Mushin is legit and not the dark lord. He's just pissed his friends were assholes and didn't try to help him (Hong buggered off to found a school, Iksanun's a goddamn loving flake, Jiyan is the only nice one of the bunch) There's also the fact that Mushin's backstory predispose him towards the dark arts and revenge. He was once the youngest prince of the Naryu, given Heaven's power by the Three Sages in an attempt to produce a pure mortal guardian, only to be plotted against by his brothers and accused of treason and imprisoned by his own father, the man he'd done everything to impress. During the fight with the dark lord, Mushin threw himself into the other side of the gate, beleiving his friends would attempt to get him out the moment they could. Yura's deal is...more spotty. She's on a mission from someone, but we don't know yet (not even KR with its new act 6). Now, if you care to know, Act 5 deals with you teaching the New Hongmoon School so you obviously go back to the 'good' side, but you don't leave the dark behind. Instead you learn the lesson Jiwan and later Mushin have been trying to teach you, Chi must be balanced by Dark Chi. Neither JSY nor Hong had the right of it, Mushin was technically correct all along.
