  1. Are you sure? Did you actually try to work for either or you just bought everything with $? Back in the days anyone could get a tit set fairly easy by harvesting only while now by using the same means (harvesting) it takes waaaaaaaay longer to get the equipment required to stay competitive unless you find a few nexus removals of course. well my friend, Since you bring up money.. gc is now 10 to 12k per dollar and back then it was 4k per dollar so stuff was A LOT more expensive back then if we are to look at it that way. In Dollars a titanium set cost 3x more back then than it does now. But we don't look at it that way...at least we shouldn't. We shouldn't look at the game from the perspective of Bill Gates whose main gc income is buying them with $ but from the perspective of your average Joe player who kills, harvs, mixes stuff for his gc in order to be able to buy that titanium set. I myself resemble the average Joe player who found it way easier to get the top items in the past than he does now.

  4. The hard part with making anything a two handed weapon is convincing Roja to change the animations for those weapons. Make the handle a lil' bit longer and use the same animation as every other 2h weapon. Making it 3/5 length of a staff should do the trick. Fighting stance would look something like this: http://www.ffxivblog.com/files/2009/08/ffxiv_warrior.jpg (random image off google).
  5. I'd rather see a claymore(not the emerald one but one that resembles the claymores used in Scotland back in the middle ages) . There are too many mmorpgs out there that are based on or have been inspired by eastern asian culture. Please go and check out how many mmorpgs are based on the legend of the three kingdoms or something similar. There are so many cultures out there (arabic, persian, african, european etc etc) that are not being exploited in the mmo industry just because big developers feel the need to give us yet another eastern asian themed mmo and if possible based on the three kingdoms legend as well (like we wouldn't have enough already). I for one am sick and tired of this and if I see another mmorpg ruined by katanas, anime graphics and char models with weird hair styles and banana-shaped-eyes (no offence to asian people...I'm not racist or anything but what is too much...well it's simply too much) I don't know what will happen to me. Summary: No katana or any other eastern asian stuff please. Cover other cultures first and when there's nothing left and only then add eastern asian things to the game. It's an overused setting and people who have been playing mmos for some time know what I'm talking about when I say: It will do the game no good. EDIT: If you are passionate about swords and martial arts then you should watch "Reclaiming the blade". It's a great documentary and it explains to you that there is much more to european martial arts than most people think. EDIT2: Please don't claim that katana=best melee weapon...let's just say it's not quite true.
  6. a few ideas

    If I recall correctly the skunk already has a chance to poison you. I guess that's realistic enough. And harvesting is frustrating enough as it's now with all those mini events so I don't think having an aoe event too would help the game. As for the magical backpack it will eventually become a must-get for every player exactly like the col and other items so why not simply raise the inventory space rather than adding even more to the too-expensive-shop-list that each player already has.
  7. Game ethics

    You like my join date better? I didn't join the forums right away. In fact considering that you made forum account the day you made the char too I might just be older. Anyway the point is I can vouch for everything Korrode said by now and knowing him I could probably say the same thing about what he will say in future. But some people simply fail to see the logic in his words. I am by no means a Korrode worshipper or anything (never was and never will be) but one has to be blind not to see the game knowledge he has and how his suggestions could radically improve the game. EDIT: Biggest pk days I've witnessed were by far the no drop weekends from the TooM era. kf, td, dpa and nca were all packed and I mean really PACKED. There were so many players you could barely see anything. Maybe you have witnessed better days (which I highly doubt) and in that case forget I said anything.
  8. Godless

    Gods give you 20% more exp if you do all their quests but the perk gives 8 free pps, so which is worth more when it comes to a/d? I understand that with god you level faster but with 8 pps you can do a lot. I see there are some useful training perks like nmt/there is no fork which you can get with those 8 pps or will/vit which are also good for training. I'm not the richest person in EL so I can't afford buying a nmt cape and my oa is a little high to wait for 7 pps for nmt perk so i thought about taking godless and getting it. So is it a good idea or just some more crap came into my mind? EDIT: grammar
  9. GODz Siggy Shop.

    Dude...don't get me wrong this is just a piece of advice: Find some tutorials for photoshop (google ftw), read them and then maybe you will be able to do more than just getting a pic off google (google ftl), making it transparent and putting it over another pic. Again I must say that was just a piece of advice because what you are doing atm can't be called art. Don't think I'm mocking you or anything...I've been using photoshop for years so I pretty much know what I'm talking about.

  16. Prince's Cheap Siggys

    Just a small piece of advice: post your siggies (best would be in the first post) so people can see if they like your work. It might just get you some more customers.
  17. Korrode's Combat Guides

    The whole guide is based on the use of CoL as for the armor I believe that if you read carefully there's a guide for choosing the right armor too in Korr's post.
  18. Banana Serp /Ice and Fire

    Don't let the idea die. We should make a poll (yes POLL! Another one weeeeeeeee!!!) about it.
  19. CHEAP SIGGYS

    IMO there are too many siggy shops atm (or I'd open one myself. Anyway peeps are welcome to contact me if they need 1 ) but anyway gl. ^^

    Merry Christmas from CA$H ;o
  21. Screenshot Thread

    How did you get the female character with sleeveless shirt, and what looks like a tatto on her shoulder to elbow? 1. I think you quoted the wrong post. 2. The sleeveless shirt and tattoo and whatever are not official game textures. You can however make custom textures yourself to replace the original ones but only you (and those who you send the textures to) will be able to see them. 3. Sorry for off topic post.
  22. Banana Serp /Ice and Fire

    Why not do the same thing for all types of swords? I mean tit longs, tit shorts, s2e's of fire/ice/magic should deal the same as their thermal counterparts. Basically I'd like this suggestion to apply for all of them not only the serp swords. And this way we might also see less fluffy orchans with cute pink swords (YAY!) so a +1 from me.
  23. Wonders of my world

    I've recently discovered that I really enjoy my new hobby. Namely: photography. So I've set up a new Picasa album to share some of my pictures with anyone who's interested. Feedback is always welcome but in the end I'll still do the way I feel Anyway here's the link: http://picasaweb.google.com/Garnoo.NightSa...feat=directlink Note: In the first photos I've added a rather big watermark but cba to remove it edit: Forgot to point out that I'm updating it quite often.
