Assassins are amazing at low level PVP which is pretty much the reason I'm going to play this.

This might be a stupid question but where can I get some high quality crafting material? I chose Pottery as one of my professions but can't seem to craft those Premium items without some high quality crafting materials, and so far I haven't seen any.

A lot of it comes from dungeons and some quests.

drat, well played KFMs really gently caress my rear end(heh) up. I can pretty much wombo combo anyone from stealth but even a bad KFM can just sit there and eat an entire combo chain and still have >50% of their health left.

That being said I managed to someone kill a 45 KFM last night. I'm positive it was a bot, but I'll take the kill. Only 20 more to go for that 75 pierce :D.


Anyone know if there's a sweet list of stat unlocks anywhere?

You never, ever, EVER plan for peak capacity in situations like MMO launch month. It's going to be like this for like 4 weeks tops and then things will level off. Had you planned for peak capacity you'll be sitting on hardware that you might never recoup the costs on. It's much better to increase capacity at a slower pace.

I'm finding that between ping, and getting older :stat: :wal: a 0.3s window from some of the stuff I have to do as an assassin might just be impossible :shobon:

I can't really seem to figure out how to beat destroyers as an assassin or FM. Are these matchups just kinda one sided for now? Going to have to roll a destroyer just to see what makes em tick.

Use the cross-server dungeon finder, it really owns bones. You can power through dungeons like a champ.

So what do I do with all of these slice of pizza shield things taking up all the slots in my inventory?


Salvage them for upgrade mats, then use the purple shield spares (or blues that have stats you want) to updated your slotted shields.

Something I noticed and I'm not sure if it's Internet Lag or Input Lag or something else. I tend to not spam keys and I think it's hurting my game a lot, especially on reactionary skills like getting out of grapples and such. I'm noticing that I'll press F to retreat and the button will lightup and nothing happens. REALLY notice it on my FM moreso. Should I just be spamming escapes and or skills in general? Typically playing with <80ms ping.

Edit: I should mention that the only thing that appears laggy is skill input. Everything else in the game is running smooth as silk.


I'm finding really bad input lag as well. Especially when in Arena PVP or Instance Dungeons.

Wait what happened?

Input lag is killer for me. It's actually more of a see button pop up, press button, see button highlight, nothing happens. I'm not much on being a button spammer :shobon:

It's not a big deal in PVE stuff, and open world PVP bu,t godamn, is it painful in Arena combat. Gonna play around with some settings to see if I can make it better.

I don't think they have to be the same level at all. It's just that the ones you get from wheel spins can't be used as upgrade components. Anything that drops, or comes from a boss drop can.

That can't be true because I used Soul Shields from the Pinchy spin wheel to give crit to my entire Cinderlands Hero Soul shield set.

Do the pincy spin wheel shields have to be unlocked or do they come unlocked? Maybe only the Stalker ones are like that?

Finally figured out my input lag issue which is great because I was about to give up. I'm really enjoying the game now. Here are some patch notes for those poor unfortunate souls that are behind a firewall today:

What was the fix?

I really wish Arena PVP would just make you lvl 45 with all the talents available. They got SOOOO close to getting it right and then hosed up this one bit. Also being able to shift your stats similar to GW2 would be pretty drat sweet as well.

How does one avoid getting hit as a FM? The CD on backstep seems obscene, even when you've put that 1 point into it.

You tell all the enemies to chill out.
