I started a Force Master, I'm not enjoying it so far...just level 11 but the combat doesn't feel anywhere near as fun as Kung Fu Master, Blade Master or the Assassin.
It kinda play to much like a regular tab target MMO. Well that's what I use the beta for, try the classes.
She's a stripper though.

I saw on the KFM that you can spec into an Aggressive Elbow smash that blocks as you are crushing them in the face. Now that sounds like fun. I do like how there are many trees to spec down on individual abilities to really make yourself different. Some give a base ability an AE effect but by choosing to add that you don't choose to do more single target damage, or skip a trigger to open up another ability. I could see someone working out some stupid combo of chains and unlocks and just ruin someone in pvp with them but be a one trick pony.
So far fun game. But very, very korean.

Meh, didn't notice there was a daily quest limit, ran out of quests right when I unlocked the lvl 35 dungeons, so that kinda sucked. Oh well still got all my stuff quick, people are cheap as fuck when it comes to drops or something, like I bid 5 silvers and win instantly so got neck/ear/ring all in one run. I have like 3+golds from selling crafted stuff, which isn't even that much since quests at 40 give like 5silvers each anyway.
Also dumped some money to buy some Pinchy tokens for the wheel to get my costume. Best costume in the game. From the front, it's your average sexy costume:
But then...
Running around with it is... distracting.

It only looks like that on Gon females though. On other classes, it's just a full tightsuit. Name of the armor is Stinger, you can preview it in wardrobe. In general, Gon female armor designs tend to be a lot sexier than the others, with like large parts of the armor missing and shit.

Game is kinda playable fully free, and you can buy cash shop currency with ingame money to buy stuff you'd want.
It however has a premium which can't be bought with ingame money, and the premium adds a bunch of fairly important stuff, like the Wardrobe(storage for costumes, saves you a ton of inventory slots), increased currency drop on mobs(like A LOT more, not even sure if mobs even drop gold without premium, they don't at low lvl at least), a lot more slots to sell stuff on the AH and such. So yeah premium is kinda a big thing. You can enjoy the game without it, but you'll need to play differently. Crafting is probably out due to the costs, at least until you're high level, you'll have to run around more cause you can't afford to TP as much, stuff like that.
It also has an effect on xp gain, but small(only on daily quests), char slots/inventory(short of the wardrobe) is not tied to premium and runspeed is the same for everyone but premium looks better.

The cool thing about money, is even as the premium players get more, means they bid more in dungeons
Had one guy for the 2nd dungeon, spend like 75s on the costume. The non-premium guy was laughing, as he got like 30s of it(Since the other 2 people left before bidding was done). Said it was like half of what he currently got. And I see people constantly paying more then I think they should for the accessories/materials. The bidding system is pretty nice way to just make money by running dungeons.
But yeah money is really low to start and starts picking up later.
As pyros said, you can do everything as f2p, will just take longer and don't plan on having a ton of costumes(as again currently Wardrobe is tied to premium only).
I know playing free on TW for a little(only got to like 43) storage/money was very tight,the latter didn't become less of a issue till Exile dungeon and people bidding high for costumes. Storage was always a pain. If I was going to play for free, I would probably at least buy a bunch of the dragon pouches to open more inventory.

The premium tiers...so the longer you're a member the higher you go in tiers? Or is it just more for the higher tiers? I don't see pricing anywhere on their site.

The tiers go up as you spend money. So like if you buy 200$ worth of garbage at launch, you'll be tier 10 or whatever you end up at, no idea. Tiers don't have a massive impact though, they increase everything but the biggest thing is just premium or not, not what tier of premium you have. The higher tiers have like convenience stuff like at 4 you can vendor from your inventory(but you don't vendor that much stuff in this game) and at 8 or 9 you can use the stash(bank) from your inventory. Rest is just small % increases, doesn't do a whole lot.

Oh also they go up when you spend the fake money you can get from playing for free, even thouh the whole thing does nothing if you don't have premium. I checked the hongmoon coins(the ingame equivalent of real money currency), seems you can get a fair amount from playing, mostly from the daily dash. I landed on a purple one and it gave me 600coins or so, which is like 7.5dollars iirc at the current rate, so that's pretty nice. The green coins which are a lot more common though are only 100ish coins per, so basically 1$ worth.

Article is slightly out of date; you can now have a Gon Force Master and Kun (Yun) Kung Fu Master.
Only seen one female streamer who actually plays the class they picked well (canadian asian chick playing a FM), the rest have been rather clueless. Watched a lot of PvP matches yesterday, skill in playing your class is clearly evident, though Lyn Blade Dancers are OP right now, along with Summoners who can keep their pet alive. A well played class can beat any other class, but those LBD's have some super strong attack that rips people up.

Played most of the weekend off and on. Got the summoner to 20 and it is a fun strong class. Insane damage with the pet doing a crapton and the right click bees 2 shotting most things. Also got a Kung Fu Master to 20 as well still pretty easy but drank many more pots overall due to 1 second block timing being hardish. But when I got used to a mobs attacks it was fun as heck. I did have issue soloing pokey (The giant scorpion boss) on the KFM but got it done where with the summoner I just blew past him like nothing.
Odd thing is I miss playing it today, if the run speed was a bit faster (Or I could get some gear to help for out of combat speed) it would be a great time waster for a few months. Or having a gang of folks playing and pvping up would be a ball too. Especially if you could guild pvp with uniforms on.
I will sub to if for a few months when it comes out though, well worth throwing a few bucks it's way.

Uh? Your spin(Tab) blocks(parries). And you can spec it to last longer. Why you see LBMs spinning so much in arena.
