  1. Wing Guild

    A solid 5 post textwall... you'd have to be pretty devote to read through all that... *scroll*. Seriously, 7yrs too long to hold a grudge in a game! And there's no such thing as choosing a wrong guild. Don't base your opinion of a guild on one person, judge the person for their deeds, not the entire guild And agree with Entris, unless you have proof of a recent scam - something someone might actually care about, not a shabby claim that you can't even remember what year it was in - then this topic really has no grounds for anyone to treat Wing any different than they have already. 7yrs(?).... let go man.
  2. blue dragon sword

    Another possibility to ponder.. give it +15 magic damage, raise the ingredients to equal the cost of a radioactive rapier with the same break rate and add it to the shop with the same break warranty/cost as a radioactive rapier. Hmmm.... if this was implemented, i may add the BluD Sword to my arsenal. +1
  3. Change Instance Cooldowns

    I agree. That means cooldown is 6.25 Days. I assume your not counting WTF!!! instances though, as noone seems to have a problem with them.
  4. New Buffer Spells

    That's how it is *now* But 28 levels above recommended need not make it failsafe. Alchemy doesn't work that way either. Why should magic? Magic is a completely different type of skill. One that works completely different from all other skills in EL, so you cannot compare it with other skills. And the magic failsafe system works well. I don't see point of rework. I see point of new spells after level 50.
  5. Wing Guild

    He does. He just doesn't help the guild image much with this stuff. And from what I've seen of Wing, their a nice enough bunch - granted I've only met and talked with Yani/soLo/Equinox. Why this topic is still going is beyond me however #EDIT# Forgot Equinox was in Wing
  6. Gold for advertising

    Can we not have EL go down the route of RuneScape where certain areas are members-only. That's one of the main frustrations of RuneScape, and I'm quite happy we don't have that problem in EL. In terms of auction - why don't we try it for a couple months, see if it has any adverse or positive effects, then work from there?
  7. Haidir Monster Finder

    Search for the mobs Dark_wizzie It what makes the exp at end of ida linos or Irin Tigers worth it
  8. Which Attribute?

    I don't like instinct. 40/48/12/16/8/12 are my attributes. I see more point in putting PP into vit and getting mana+toughness at this stage than into instinct for only dodging. But this is my opinion.
  9. Gold for advertising

    Agree with this, although I'm not voting until people make a proper agruement for and against.
  10. More assignments from Haidir

    Aquila - the whole point is encourage people into PK, don't force them into PK, that won't make them want to PK: it's just a ridiculous hope that it will spur some. I have done the TD daily many times, without much problems, but I still believe that you should have the choice of staying out of PK if you wish. More missions, yes. Telling people they have to go into PK or use pass, no. Forcing people into PK does not contribute to more PK, proper PK (killing unarmed players is hardly a challenge). This is evident, because TD Haidir doesn't spur PK, KF harv daily doesn't spur PK. There's plenty of non-PK maps to choose from when thinking up new haidir missions
  11. Change Instance Cooldowns

    Mountain map is used be 80100 right? That's already 160hrs. 6080 use Swamp Map, 180hrs
  12. Crowd Funding for Day of Magic !

    Often people club together to purchase a Day Stone. Although last one I saw, it was people putting 50kgc into a pool for a Day of Joule. Good luck SolarStar
  13. Invance Initiator

    And then we get the issue in instances - where you lack the required number of people to enter. This would not solve the current problem. It in fact would create the problem where you no longer have the option of attempting a lower number invance, which are occasionally the only ones that happen at a reasonable time for me. Removing this option would be unfair. And in terms of 5 people invances - just need 5 capable fighters, usually midranged and if they work well in a team, and do a couple restocks, you can easily 5 man a 4060 or 6080. I think we've done 6 man 80100s. Exceptional fighters/summoners is not what is usually in those teams. It usually 1-2 Top Caps (at most), 2-3 midranged, and maybe a lower level person in augies ranging the damn things. The rule of thumb in the invances from my experiance - wait for 5 people who definetely can go before asking. that way, if noone else shows, you still stand a chance to win, but if more show up, it's a bonus.
  14. New Buffer Spells

    What do you need buffs to kill panthers and skeletons ? and if this is how you feel we should be able to make dragon armor at early Manu levels as well so noobs can make them selves awesome armor to help them in 40-60 invance Good example. But the other way: You CAN make dragon armour at level 1. You simply will fail very often, thus it will be inefficient. For the same reasons the spells should work at low levels - but fail often. Another example on those lines are that you can always harvest everything regardless of your level - it simply will take ages. Thus the spell cooldown could depend on the level difference for instance as well. The problem is spells become failsafe after 28 levels: put buffers at a low level, people with decent magic can do it failsafe with ease. I still think if new spells should be introduced, the level they should be required to be cast should be 55-72, as spells above lvl 50 would be nice, and maximum of level 72 required, because otherwise you need more than level 100 to be failsafe - an area that is fairly unpopulated afaik (prove me wrong!). Cooldown depending on instance tier.... why? The spell system works fine as it is, just requires more spells xD
  15. Fight Club!

    There's only DPA under 40s and DPA under 60s. GL with event. I would volunteer to run, but I can't do stuff that isn't Euro And any max/mix a/d requirements?
  16. Buy Slots

    The whole point was that i didn't want to spend a couple weeks afk harving iron ore. Believe it or not, I don't find that very entertaining. Agree with Domino, why are quite alot of the recent suggestions saying you should pay $$$ for it. You want to pay $$$ to play, go play a P2P game simple. Charging for extra sto slots (which are generally needed by allrounders, afaik) means you need to pay gc to go down a certain route of playstyle. Not cool.
  17. Nexus potions

    Agree with Raistlin, CherUT, Entris, Cabman, ect. Why do we need this? Entris pretty much summed it up, we can already get nexus so easily with work. I have 16PP and mostly fight, but I have made myself weaker in combat so I can train do a little summoning, and so I can harvest pretty much anything I like. Why punish people who take choices to weaken themselves slightly in combat for chosing a different path? Hell, this suggestion would occasionally be useful to me, but really.... there's no need for it. InfectioN also said what I'd use it for (Arti Cape and long ess mixes). Suggestion is a big nono
  18. Change Instance Cooldowns

    no 40hrs is one every 2 days! If you want all instances at non cooldown, keep the cooldown above 96 (WTF!!! insta), imo somewhere between 120-150hrs
  19. Invance Initiator

    ....5 is enough for all invance I've done (4060, 6080, 80100). And been wondering if there was any technical problems preventing you from having a separate invance map per range (sorry if this has been asked before). As far as I understand it, the separate maps isn't a problem, but the maximum number of mobs the server can host is. So, if both 120-200 and 40-60 were to run simultaneously, the server could crash. Thank you, was curious if it was something like that It's easy to get an organized team ready. Just have a couple people who can check the number, and judge wether the team has enough firepower to take it, depending on levels and such. Watching the @100120, that doesn't happen very often, although we somehow managed to keep 80100 organized even through the constant flamewar that 3 people had every day (you know who )
  20. More assignments from Haidir

    Why in PK maps? Why force people into PK maps? Doesn't solve any PK problem. I agree in more haidir missions, not forcing people into PK areas
  21. New Buffer Spells

    And i think one of the main reasons off this topic is that after level 50 magic, you have no new spells, which stops you having that good feeling of finally being bale to cast something new and different (noone else feel that way? Oh, just me )
  22. When you were a nub

    Came home from school, saw my dad running away from Bob the Gob in Portland xD So I asked if I could play, and made a character, before started to run about Whitestone and Isla Prima killing/being killed be anything I saw. Was good fun. Generally walking around, saying 'hi' and sparking up random conversation with people in local, and just generally help given by people when i started off. That's how I started, and why I kept going. Then I left for a couple years for a reason I forgot
  23. Agree. Sucks to find a Fast Regen and Hellspawn Removal, get excited, and find out that put together, their not even worth 1kgc... And enchanted swords need balancing way more, the only one really being used is the Serpent Thermal. NMTs aren't that easy to get. When I was looking for one, I spent week advertising on ch3 to buy off player. After not getting a PM for one (offered 400kgc), eventually gave up and bought the only one that was on a bot. That was earlier this year. NMT is fine imo, solve the problem with the virtuously pointless Warlock Cape and Enchanted Swords. My 2 pence
  24. Buy Slots

    I agree with Domino, sorry Stronze. Shop already has a big-ish impact for lower end players (had to buy some items to make gc for my NMT, didn't want to be mixing for ages). If an idea for a F2P is thought up, makes sense that it should be proposed as free. And as for EL having balanced shop.... no comment. EDIT: Typo's, be GONE!
