  1. Hello fellow EL'Rs, I have been speaking to a lot of you recently about Pk, and the main thing that always comes up is getting bombed.

     

    A lot of you think it is UNFAIR that a character with HIGH A/D (or any char for that matter) can be Killed so quickly without any type of defense against it, I tend to agree with you, EVERY single form of Pk skill has a Defense againt it, for magic its a simple spell you have to re-apply every one minute and 30 seconds, bronze armor, blue armor and a cape,

    for ranging, A Point Defense that you must carry to protect against damage from incoming arrows, blue armor which gives missle protection,

    for Melee, shields, evasion pots, defense pots, coordination pots, ECT... you get the Point, there are a multitude of defense againt all form of PK EXCEPT Engineer which also happens to be the most powerfull............

     

    im making this post not only for myself But on behalf of everyone I have spoke to regarding the matter, if you think something needs to be done to give us some form of protection against BOMBS I urge you to voice your opinion here.

     

    I myself am a level 116 engineer(one of the top engineers in the game), so know that when I post this, it will directly effect me as much as anyone else. thank you for reading and please I welcome you to voice your opinion no matter what it may be...

  2. There are successful caps in other games, so what features are we lacking that keeps people playing those games?

    this game is original and unique in its own way , i dont think radu's intentions are to mimic other games, but to create his own unique gaming experience..... a game without low caps is part of his experience .,,,


  3. Hi some know me some dont, i used to play this game and i held #1 a/d/m for mabye a year , Hi radu, asgnny,luciferx, and other who know me, just checked in and saw this and felt compelled to reply.

     

    when i played i only liked to level a/d and everything i did was cenetered around it, i believe a cap would hurt the economy and kill insentive for alot of people and not to mention would be a slap in the face to people like masterpiter/asgnny/toomass (sorry if i missed anyone who level a/d past 150 been a while)

     

    yes they are strong but believe me they sacraficed ALOT of time to attain this ...to nerf someone at level 150 back down to 130 is almsot 2 years of work and defeats the very thing that attracted many to play this game......


  4. I love to pk, but then again i also enjoy the other skills of the game, guess id run my character on the normal Server and on the Pk server. would make things inssteresting ^^.

     

    <3 the idea.

     

    The other skills are 80% of the game. Why shard it for 20%? Have fun without the folks who make the ess or pots.

    well games like this are based around the fighters , without them the game will most likley suffer. IMO

     

    I have been proven wrong many times ,so im not making any predictions , but if i had to give an opinion i would say that i dont think this idea will flourish and here is why

     

    this is the equivilant of people training and wasting valuable time on a test server that could be used productivly on the main server, I for one wouldnt waste my time there , this dosent mean that others wont , but i doubt any significant # of people will actually spend time there (as Entropy has all mentioned)......


  5. 2 billion xp doesn't sound like much to me. Someone who plays 40 hours a week and optimizes his training so he gets 500k o/a xp per hour would get 1 billion xp per year, so just 2 years. 40 hrs might sound like a lot but I've heard some top fighters claim they train this much.

    i would say masterpiter is the smartiest most efficent trainer in el (i pvped him for a long time so i speak from experience) and i dont think even he would have the (looks for perfect word..cant find it so il settle) patience to level 2 billion exp..mabye he will make me eat my words but i some how dont think so


  6. hell yea he will..... i also noticed his guildie/pvp partner made like 20+ def level (120-143 or mabye more in a few months) basically impossible normally but mp is pro i wonder how he does it :rolleyes:

     

    It's only the matter of time you "waste" per day and nothing more :)

    some people have found "ways" to make their "wasted" time MUCH MUCH MUCH more benifical then others, i would say some people know little secrets that benefit them 2 - 1 on the average joe


  7. Unless some significal changes made no1 will reach oa or skill lvl over 160 for a very long time, and i mean like a year from now, maybe more.

    From 160 to 180 is like 2,5 times more exp than from 1 to 160, so i think that its unreachable under current circumstances ( which is very good thing from my point of view :D )

     

    mp

     

    Don't fool us MP, we know you'll get 180 def soon :P

    hell yea he will..... i also noticed his guildie/pvp partner made like 20+ def level (120-143 or mabye more in a few months) basically impossible normally but mp is pro i wonder how he does it :P


  8. When i harvest diamonds the other night i kept breaking picks. i got mad and bought 10picks with me - in one harvest i broke 5 picks! (i only have 700 emu) this is crazy! (shouldn't nmt keep picks from breaking so easy?)

     

    iirc the Nmt perk dosent affect tools (hammers used for manu /picks needles ect..) but you might try the harvestors med, iirc that reduces the tool break rate for harvesting

     

    I liked it when it was easy to check #da.

    Now it's too complicated.

     

     

    Why do you need the #da command we have these stones now, what so complicated abotu it? you buy a stone you click it...


  9.  

    The only other thing that might change is having some other astrology affecting values, such as affecting the chance to flee from combat, items loss when you die, etc.

    Cool !!!

     

    Also about the monsters having astrology affect them, will we be made privvy to their sign? :) that would rock

     

     

    Btw i flamed astrology a bit in the past, But it has come to grow on me, i actually enjoy it now , so i wont be using the perk

     

    >>//~~In-Game Name Knuckles~~\\<<


  10. Lol it's funny, if someone wants to stop something entering the game they should go pr0 bitching. \o/

     

    No, that won't work. But when a lot of high level players complain about something THEY WANTED IMPLEMENTED, well, they lose that.

    Note that the astorlogy will stay in the game, what won't stay is the perk that removes it.

    i think this is best for everyone, lets teach them OLD high level players a lesson what do they know anyway ,if they dont like this system something must be wrong with them, mabye they will just quit like luciferx did ;)


  11. so in a nut shell.....since most people agree with luci that they DONT like astroglogy, you are going to respond to that by NOT adding the perk that will free them from this system they dislike... ;)

     

    i fail to see how this will help, please edjucate me, i dont want to jump to any conclusions

     

    Well, you and others claimed that you AGREED with Lucifer's post. Did you read his post? If you do, you will see that what I am doing is to make you guys less unhappy, by adressing one of the problems he mentioned (about the perk).

    you know what he said the problem was the 500$ fee ....this is getting borderline childish

     

    astrology is great..

     

    i promise and you can quote me on this, ill never complain about anything you add again

     

    i never said i agree with luci on the other hand i dont disagree either BUT i have my own opinion about this system, mabye some of our points intertwine but then so do other peoples


  12.  

    Fine, i love the astrology system as it is right now and i would hate it, if there would be a perk which gets you rid of the influences of the astrology system.

     

    Piper

    good for you that you enjoy it, but what is it to you if someone who dosent enjoy it as much wants to remove it?

     

    It adds a little bit more random to everything, you cant only look at your levels/stats and calculate how some things will happen and rely on it.

    this game is random enough already imo, it dosent hurt to have a few things u can count on

     

    But maybe an expensive medallion would be nice, which has a *chance* to get rid of the astrology effects. That might be a nice source of income for crafters and even add more variations to the game.

    i wont even bother to comment on this

     

    We have meds to get rid of the trouble of hellspawn perk, we have stones to get rid of failures while making stuff, so a med with a *chance* to get rid of astrology influences would fit somehow IMO.

    we have perks to make you eat bones and perks that keep youre items from degrading and well you get the idea so i think and astrology removal perk fits in some how

     

     

    Experiences with the astrology system? Lots of broken pickaxes, some really nasty fights, but that happended before to me too, so i wont blame the astrology system for it.

    fair enough , but i would rather take my chances w/o astrology!!

    people used to do w/e they wanted to do, now people have to revolve around negative affects making the game more strategic yes, but the lack of creative freedom makes it less fun imo,

    i would rather log on and say "what do I want to do today, NOT whats best for me to do today, so far everytime i log on and check ,my stats are well NOT good, i have yet to see some stats that made me say wow cool, as i expected so far more negative then good..sorry if this seems flame , that isnt my intention , im just posting how i feel as a direct result of the affect this system has had on my gaming experience....<//~~thats my opinion


  13. Ok, well, since a lot of people agree with Luci's points, I decided not to implement the no astrology perk, because people will still complain about the game even with that perk. So it will be easier for me.

    so in a nut shell.....since most people agree with luci that they DONT like astroglogy, you are going to respond to that by NOT adding the perk that will free them from this system they dislike... :bow_arrow:

     

    i fail to see how this will help, please edjucate me, i dont want to jump to any conclusions


  14. The thing is..as in real life..

     

    Hey yea! Let's make the game as close to real life as possible!

     

    Make it so you have to sleep 8 hours game time (time when you aren't logged in won't count). Don't sleep long enough, you die.

     

    Make it so you HAVE to eat. Food level hits max neg, you die.

     

    Make the gc about 2 emu. In RL they have weight.

     

    Ohh and you only get 1 life, like in RL. You die, your char gets deleted.

     

    Sure sounds fun to me!

     

    And, for the most part, I agree with Luci.

     

     

    Just my 2 cents tho, and my 2 cents doesn't matter.

    loooool youre my hero stroker :P

     

     

    Ok, excellent.

    I need a few more people that agree with him (luci), and I am all set :)

    So, who else agrees with them?

    alot of people seem to agree with luci and curious people are well umm curious what are you going to be all set to do?

     

    also alot of people agree with luci but wont post


  15. not sure exact numbers but i manued something like 4k s2e and 2k steel longs made all my own bars harvested alot of the ore myself also , guysmith and snosrap helped me harvest the ores, took long time i remember one day i didnt move untill i had 30k steel bars (in one sitting )..also i alced all the hydro bars and wolf bars i used most of the hydro bars to add nexus for manu , and i made alot of swords with wolf bars, i even got 2 jsoc and 1osmn...i used to have a serious gaming problem, but need to manage my business took over :)


  16. Have you tried ogres on a bad day ? if they are to hard maybe try using a weak sword etc instead of box/bone.. and on a good day do the same move up to armed orcs and use a sword (if they are to hard to hit) .

    maybe im lucky at the moment on cycs the only differance i have noticed so far on a bad day is that I use more restores but thats magic xp so not to bad, on a good day my xp is down a bit but nothing worth complaining about.

     

    think its a balancing act between sword/box/bone depending on the day

    i think what he is asking is how to benifit not how to cope, this system is supposed to give educated user an advantage not more magic exp and less a/d exp


  17. Ok, so then how about you give EL problems at least a few weeks of consideration before you post to say how much every change sucks?

    i dont think i ever said this change sux , i feel its inconvient for some people, and more or less influences the way pepole want to play, like i stated in a previous post "instead of logging on and saying what do i want to do," "i now say what is best for me to do".....


  18. anyways whats the point of youre correcting my english? does that have any bearing on this? i find it incerdiblly offensive and condesending

     

    IRL, when a client wants you to build him a 30 stories high building, do you give him a price estimate right away, or do you ask for more information then carefully decide on a price?

    takes months of carefull consideration


  19.  

     

    your, not youre

    effects, not affects

    yourself not youreself

     

    Anyway, if you paid attention to his post, he said that he used to get +/- 12 a/d bonus from the astrology, which means that his a/d are in the 100 range. While that's not as leet as the 140 a/d people, that's still pretty good, yes?

     

    well i typed his name in rankings and thats what i came up with try it, and yes 100 range is pretty good (and if you read my post carefully instead of look for grammer mistakes) i started with "if youre forum siggy matches youre game name"

     

    anyways whats the point of youre correcting my english? does that have any bearing on this? i find it incerdiblly offensive and condesending
