  • I was commenting on the wording of the event as announced on the web site, not the forum posting here. Also, I posted after the start of the event, which (according to web page) was 00:00 PST. EME really should match up forum, web, and game. Does…
  • (Quote) I'd punt Tera in an instant if there were FFXIV-style limits. It's 90% of the reason I left FFXIV. I didn't want to restructure my life around the game to permit me to loot. That game literally zeroes the drops if someone else has looted…
  • It's far more pay to skin than win. You can be completely free and still get there, but I suspect even the most die-hard freebie is tempted to pay for a few speedups at one time or another. It's definitely true that it's easier to start with a bit…

  • (Quote) The attack is actually extremely clever; it's not really "Intel's Fault". It's more like "Everyone's Fault" that makes a CPU. It's basically a mammoth-sized industry-wide "OOPS". Intel is perhaps engaged in …
  • EME knows just how cute you'd look in a dress. And, the EME store has your size in stock, too!
  • The double drops for GG & PoP are working. The triple rewards are not. VGs are giving 2x reputation, but no increase to gold, item XP, or metamorphics. 'Dunno about other VG rewards -- haven't done one with tokens or chests yet. I suspect t…
  • I like most of the feedback, but solo-mode DGs are a waste of effort: they can already be solo'd. As a true newbie (1st char), I ran several dungeons completely solo at the level of the dungeon on ninja. It was tedious compared to group, but not a…
  • (Quote) PoP has by far the best RTI of any VG. You forgot to divide gold+items by time. It's an incredibly fast little dg: 30~40s for a brawler, 70~90s for most others. Even my worst solo class (reaper) takes only 140s on a bad run. That's 4k+ …
  • Mechanics aren't a newbie barrier, it's lack of incentive to teach newbies the mechanics. For contrast, FFXIV has some fantastic support for newbies. It's got a channel that only two types can join: brand new and vets that did some minor "pro…
  • Only the weapon. It's roughly 230k to make the weapon (no RNG) and then heavy RNG to enchant it. The "500k" number is also a "lucky" enchant sequence. I won't try this again with less than about 700k.
  • I suspect you're 65 already by know and thus my reply here will be mostly wasted at least for the OP, but perhaps might help other new gunners. L65 play is vastly different from under 65 due to skills and glyphs. Don't worry so much about learning…
  • You're right -- just checked it. It's not 2.8g anymore. It's now 1.2g, which pretty much makes dw+15 the only viable use for metamorphics. That nerf might impact box sales, since they seem to be using metamorphics as the "booby prize". …
  • If you truly need extra mobility, you can glyph for it on rocket jump and also use the attack speed glyph on AB. Then AB->Jump->AB(boom) or just AB->Jump for a very fast jump with extra runspeed after. I don't use either one myself, but I…
  • If you played ninja or warrior, valkyrie feels like a mixure of those -- dodgyness and constant backstabbing from ninja with the build & boom aspect from warrior. It's a nice newbie class, too: with the hp glyph, you can recover about 40% of yo…
  • 3. Essential Mana is still a very good reference for ninja right now. 1. My nin uses 2x energetic-III (cdr) for etchings, but other builds work, too 2. My nin uses a full set (5) of crit accessories, tried some as power, was a lot worse NB: for etc…
