Well I hit level 47 tonight. I should have enough labor tomorrow to hit 50. I have all cloth armor/staff/greatclub now. So not fun with battlerage. In any case, I hope to just snag Songcraft/Sorc/Brage and level them up quickly with all these left over quests. Then snag Defense when I do some additional crafting.

So now time to plan for gear. I have no jewelry. Looks like it's time to grind Hasla tokens forevers.

Did 80 high demand tokens tonight in 5 hours in a huge PRX raid.
what are high demand tokens?

there's really no honor in pvp in this game, making it ironic you get honor points from it. guys who wait till im in the middle of a mob fight and burned all my cooldowns to gank me. Finally snapped today and stalked the jackass that did it to me, wasnt incredibly hard to return the favor when hes also at under half health fighting a mob. so dumb.

I hope they'll get their shit traight before Auroria opens.
It's been going on long enough now (and not just with the housing hacks but gold sellers in general) that the economy is fucked on most servers. That's pretty bad for a game that is highly dependent on the in-game economy.

It varies based on the night. Usually courage is #1, followed by honor, followed by compassion, followed by conviction, followed by fortitude.

Last night was silly though. Our high demand tokens were fort>compassion>honor. At one point courage was free for all. Note that this was with some ~15 in the raid at 5am.


We got ~30 people weapons last night though, and a lot of people went from 0 to 150 in one sitting.

Well on Ollo this weekend, I finally got lucky on the land clickfests. I did my usual big scan of all the peacetime properties and threw them all in a website on wed/thursday, and noticed friday afternoon there were I think about 4 16x16's all expiring within a few minutes of each other. There was no real way to be at all of them, especially since you can't place stuff just after logging in till a timer expires.

I did the first and the last. First had the usual huge crowd and of course I lost. Next one had about 10 people and I got it! The big bonus being it was about 30 feet from the 8x8 plot I had. I barely got there in time, and just threw a cottage down without rotating it.

Then late last night I went to a 4am farm grab. That one also had two within a couple minutes of each other and apparently everyone went to the one in Gweonid. It was me and 3 other people so I managed to get it, so I'm finally all set on land.

I only saw one property go to the guy that took damn near everything last week. I guess he's got too many to deal with. Although in one particular instance friday, I did notice a house go up about a half a second after the other one started burning.

There were a huge amount of 8x8's going this weekend. If any of you wanted to mess around with farming, you can probably find one somewhere. I think the number was close to 150 on Ollo.

Quickly, if you only have an 8x8, you'll realize you can't do much without a farmer's workshop. Now that I finally have one I realized I still can't do much with it because most of the stuff requires 10k skill hehe.

House storage is really really nice to have. I was drowning in stuff and mailing things around to alts and such.

Dinged 50 today. Time to level other classes to 50 so I can perform. I've got a shit load of quests left as I wait for labor to regen, pots to come off cooldown.

Time to farm for craft gear, Hasla tokens, and whatever else.

I've mentioned it before but you people act like its your first MMO. Every single MMO has hacks/bots, every single one. And not one of them has stopped them and none ever will. The only bad part is they effect this game more then most, as there a very few instances, housing is non instanced and BiS gear is crafted with the materials being gained from the open world. Hell it's not just MMOs, its gaming period.

It being f2p seems to increase the problem quite substantially.


Just makes me chuckle how whiny gamers are.

theres a difference between having hacks/bots and having all the information sent between the client and server unencrypted. To give you an idea cinge, the client tells the server how much a trade pack is worth. You can trade every pack at 130%, its not verified server side at all.
XLGames were just irresponsible with it. In korea it may not be a problem with SSNs being attached to game accounts but when you start exporting your game, you need to be better.

Yeah, that seems to be the biggest fuck up so far with this game. Doesn't really seem like something that can be fixed. Then again, I don't even know if it's a huge issue right now.
