[Garbage new event]

*looks at new event*

Wait.

Solo Turtle.

I was kidding.

Don't go.

The real reason this event is terrible because it spits in the face of mid-high gear what are around 1m sustain, which is quite great for pretty much all of the content, except the turtle. You're almost there, near max? Nop! Not good enough! Better get that true tiger soul or f... off! That's the real issue, not ravens and riftwalks, but Aransu9 or fresh into GC6 people.

Seconding this.

 

While this event does give compensatory prizes like previous events for participating, at least any event that catered to whales was watered down to RNG luck, i.e. the more money you spend, the better your chances of getting something good.

 

This is literally a slap in the face for a lot of the players, with the event basically stating -
"Yeah, you could get this, but you're weak.
So instead, have this complimentary scratch and sniff sticker saying 'You tried'."

 

This event practically displays itself as a rigged carnival game.

What I mean is upgrading King Gloves to stage 10 by wasting so many gold for jewels is only a big loss on the long term. And as I said previously about the gloves differences is that making Awakened Starstone gloves is not only absolutely much cheaper but they're also on par/slightly lacking in dps compared to King gloves. (worst case being like 5k dps afaik, depend on the class I think but I'm not sure about this)

 

If you wish to do like Hanuku and get the set bonus, then King gloves at stage 1 (or stage 3 if you're really picky about it) is more than enough.

 

So yeah my point all along about the gloves is that the dps/power increase is not significant at all.

You're completely right on the matter.

It's not a significant increase and is actually a waste of an investment, and you're better off putting your money elsewhere like upgrading your soul for the long run.

 

The problem is convincing the rest of the community that information, as a lot of the player-base is spoon-fed with upgrade information that doesn't make sense investing towards, but still lock you out for not having "the highest gear available".

 

To me, how people treat King's Gloves vs [Awk] Starstone gloves is nothing more than a hyped up accessory like how people raved about getting Destiny Rings and Immortality Earrings in the past. People raved about those orange trap gears because it had "more AP" and is a so much "better" than getting Desolate Tomb Ring and Xanos Earring, despite those two being the only accessories at the time to get anything with elemental damage before getting BT accessories.

 

This is honestly no different, and just as much of a trap investment.

[Now when server are merged...]

The game now has 1 server but i still waited 12 minutes in battleground que after 1 month away from the game and it still didnt find a single match. Facts.

Another fact - Just because servers merged, doesn't mean you're still queuing up with new people in the community.

F8 = LFPing with people from "all servers".

 

Just because servers are merged doesn't mean you'll be playing with a bigger population.

It just means you'll be seeing more people outside of F8.

 

 

If NA and EU regions merged, that's a different story.

Anyone who can clear stage 4 would probably not be interested in any of the purchasable rewards anyways since they already would have better gems and full TT SS to be able to beat the turtle. Only thing of interest is wings and most whales already have blue version. 

Wings and for the select few, GC steels are the only ones that whales care for. The other items in there (gems, tt soulshields 1-3, onyx scales and challenger fragments) are pointless.

[returning player here need some guidance]

At level 46, all of your gear is definitely outdated.
All gear will be most likely replaced as you follow story until you finish.

 

Lvl 60 booster will give you generally everything you need minus the weapon.
You'll need to do the last orange quest to have a more updated weapon.

[What class is good for pve?]

Pick a class that you like and stick with it.

 

All classes generally have really good damage and survivability.
It just comes down to learning them.

 

If you want one for pve strictly for one of the more easier learning curves, then something like Warden's probably your best bet. Great offense, great defense, has a party buff that everyone generally likes. Just expect to tank.

[Coming back from 2016 - Info needed.]

1) Main quest; follow all yellow arrows, with exceptions of orange quests to be able to do weeklies with other people at the end.

2) Weapons, soulshields and accessories will be provided for you via main quest; no need to divert and buy anything until you absolutely catch up with story.

3) If you want to have in-depth information of classes for PvE/PvP, check out Bns Academy on Discord.

 

When you "finish" story (i.e. can't continue any further; the story stops at Act 9 and will continue to Act 10 in the future), check out EvilDoUsHarm on Youtube, as he usually stays updated with what new players should do after finishing story.

[Grand Celestial vs Aransu (Wrong)]

It's becoming a well-known fact especially among TT raiders that GC3 does less damage than A9, and is always better to make the jump from A9 -> sky/shadow 6 -> GC6 with a few exceptions to a couple of classes to stay sky/shadow 6.

 

This should not be a problem if you have the GC steels for it, otherwise you're better off sending a ticket and reverting it back to A9, as owning a GC3 serves virtually no purpose than to flex you have a GC weapon minus the improvement.

Ehh, I bet 90% of the population won't be able to clear even with max gear because they don't know how to play their class since so many people under performs with the gear they have in f8. 

 

I'm a BD with aransu 9 and BT accessories and I managed to clear it.

BDs are known to perform very well undergeared with low ping.

Not all classes are born with the same dps having the same gear.

[cold storage, my orb my loot, does this mean winter mane's loot + kaari's loot? or just kaari's loot?]

It's nice to see people here more than agreeing that moml = kaari loot only, because orb is used on the second boss.

 

Out of all my times going into cold storage prior to the event, moml did not equate "my loot" from two bosses, especially when the first boss is literally free to fight.

 

I don't care if they come with pitch forks yelling "wth I said moml its mine!". Unless I see an orb used, you're not entitled to a boss's reward that did not exhaust your inventory yet.
