If you want the build you should do research on your own, I've already found some builds for WG wasn't hard at all

You're in a thread where OP is specifically asking for a skill build guide. Good for you. You found one online, now you can either kindly share it or just stop acting stuck up and like you're smarter than someone else because you can use google. Big ole thinking emoji

I just don't understand why some people, specially high TCP ones, have to rush BB raid within 15-20 minutes at the expense of an entire squad or two not getting an SS reward (possibly only obtaining A/S or even E/F).

How can this happen? To put it simply, they put all the high tcp players into a single squad and proceed to obliterate everything much faster than the other 1 or 2 squads. Then they do 3-4 runs which leaves the other squad/s having insufficient points to reach SS. It also guarantees everyone in their squad to earn SSS. Not to mention there are some people who, for the love of god, do Core twice. This renders an entire squad wasting their time and effort because the former wants to take advantage and save their precious time.

I can understand if they do this if the other squad/s can't finish the run because they dissolve due to DCs/crashes or just not enoguh firepower/skill before they got wiped out by one-shot mechanics. But sometimes it's not like the 'weakest' squad can't finish the run or finish it fast enough. It's just that Squad 1 (usually) finishes the run SO much faster. They don't even care about balancing the squad and spreading high TCP players across the 3 squads so that runtime would be pretty much the same for everyone.

It's suffice to say that this is a very inconsiderate move. I don't want to create an issue and "rant" in the forum but being partied with these people for the last couple of weeks is starting to take a toll on me. I'm already sacrificing my sleep time just so that I can play this raid. I just want everybody to have their fair share of experience and rewards.

I don't want to experience this again. My solution? I'm just going to create my room from now on, or atleast pick leaders who I had good experience with.

P.S. If you're the leader, you can drag a player's avatar to arrange his/her placement in squads. 9/10 rooms I've joined don't even know how to do this. Please balance the team. Thank you.

It's worth trying imo.

I returned to the game fairly recently so I'm not as jaded as some people but I find plenty to enjoy here. The gameplay is fast and smooth, the classes seem to have high ceilings so you can always feel a payoff from self improvement, and the content seems to be challenging enough up until you heavily overgear it - but even then there's something to be said for clean runs and mechanical accuracy. The overall design is flashy and polished. and there's enough depth in the combat to keep me entertained. The market seems to be stable and bots appear to be non-existent thanks to various imposed limitations within the economy. The fashion and wardrobe systems are great if you're into that.

I'd say those are the main reasons why the game has kept my interest thus far. If you don't care about those things, ymmv.

As for the pop - the population in all niche KMMO's is low but it's mostly a non-issue because these games are designed to run on low pops. Either way, I play with a small group of friends so I've never experienced any negative impact stemming from a lack of players. I imagine if you come to the game with friends, you'll have no issues whatsoever on this front.

Coming from Kritika, which is a mind-numbing power fantasy, this game is a breath of fresh air. And tbh if you have people coming from BDO you should have zero problem with the cash shop here.

I'll also say that EME gets a lot of shit from people and I'll admit that they've made some questionable decisions throughout their history in various games, but I've had nothing but positive experiences with their customer service - they're hella nice, respond quickly, and will usually go out of their way to help you as long as your problem is within their power to address.

Give the game a shot - nothing to lose really. Worst case, you don't like it and move on.

I'm surely not the first person to have brought this up, but has there ever been any consideration for adding some additional overflow/BB raid windows into the current schedule? The way the times stack up currently, both the opening times for Beelzebub and Overflow are almost entirely overlapped with NA's working hours (Average 8AM-5PM). There is some space for those on the east coast of NA (3 hour ish window from 5pm to 8pm?), but this window progressively shrinks as you move west across the continent. Personally, I'm on the west coast and have pretty much zero chance to get any access to endgame content during the week.

For reference (Add 3 hours for conversion of PST to EST):
Overflow Times
10-11 UTC 2(AM)-3(AM) PST
15-16 UTC 7(AM)-8(AM) PST
18-19 UTC 10(AM)-11(AM) PST
20-21 UTC 12(PM)-1(PM) PST
23-24 UTC 3(PM)-4(PM) PST
0:30-1 UTC 4:30(PM)-5(PM) PST
1:30-2 UTC 5:30(PM)-6(PM) PST

Beelzebub:
16 - 2 UTC 8(AM)-6(PM) PST

With the times laid out as above, hopefully its clear enough to see the time restrictions. Assuming those of us who have jobs have on average a 30 minute to 1 hour commute, that pretty much takes out all the available access times [for the west coast or anyone who's unfortunate to have to work long hours on the east]. I'm not asking for the times to be changed, but as this server does service both NA and EU, it would only be fair that access times be equally available for both regions. It would make far more sense if Overflow was open every other hour or even every two hours, while Beelzebub was open for a full 12 hours (16 or 24 would honestly be more accommodating, but I won't be greedy). I'd even be happy if a tiny 30 minute window was available between 2UTC and 8UTC was opened. At least that would give us a sliver of opportunity to get a little bit done...
