>can't get any of my weapons past +12 what is this shit I've literally gone through my liverto's durability twice trying to upgrade this piece of shit and both my awakening weapons are at 50 already too is +12 fucking cursed or what
Jordan Wood
elrics or rogues
Ethan Lewis
I'd rather eat dicks.
Henry Collins
once you repair it once with artisans memory the enchant rate goes up dramatically
Cooper Wright
if you have 4 pets elrics is alright, elites in mediah are good too you can try to head into valencia as well, you might need a little more ap but bashims and desert nagas are good for you atm
Xavier Rodriguez
>Play a tamer >Kind of slow >Squishy >Boring as hell >Mediocre damage >hurr durr you only dislike the class because of muh node wars Switching to Kuno and then Witch was the smartest thing I've ever done in my life.
Jace Cox
You're not gonna get better money/h than Sausan or Pirates. I personally like Bandits, decent money and exp.
Joseph Bennett
>already used 4 artisans memory on liverto the motherfucking thing just doesn't wanna upgrade at all
Nathaniel Wright
Try manes or wandering rogues
Aiden Hall
pirates
Elijah Foster
Why are Tamer players always such cunts and crybabies? Don't worry you will go back to Tamer, it fits your personality.
Adrian Price
I just wanted to quit playing but got my kzarka to TRI. why does this game want me so much?
Brody Roberts
>money making >bashims
I'm not retarded, nice try.
I said not pirates.
Jace Turner
>money making >i'm not retarded >not pirates or sausans
Gabriel Thomas
Yeah I'm not retarded going to spots that are packed by groups 24/7. Retard.
Thomas Johnson
>susans >pirates >good for money LOL they're only used for XP
Easton White
Why are you enhancing your Kzarka if you want to quit? Your subconscious want you to keep playing.
Joseph Adams
>pirates >not good for money okay retard
Cooper Ross
Hurr durr why can't i make money in 5 man group? 2 man group with everything going to special deals is hard to beat for silver if both have good clear speed.
Logan Stewart
well then don't complain about spots that are worse in comparison you should just lifeskill instead since you're this dense
Jack Sullivan
retard alert
theres a reason people choose those places over places with similar or better exp
Adam Harris
Don't offer the literal worst money making spot in the game, when you can offer 5 way better and easier ones, and I wont complain.
John Baker
If you already know 5 "way better and easier ones" why don't you go there? Seriously the retardation on some people.
Adrian Ross

Brandon Cooper
I'm gay I also love to suck futa dicks, even though I'm a girl. Actually I never sucked any futa dicks, like hello? Could someone force their stinky futa cock down my throat? I've never been forced to suck futa dick, desu.
Christopher Peterson
tfw no bbc bf
Isaiah Hall
I'm just asking other people for opinions, mongoloid. But literally everyone knows bashims is the worst grinding spot for money.
Alexander Morales
Is the new dark knight class that seems to be front and center on all their pages also shit?
Elijah Watson
Yes unless you play tamer you are going to be bottom tier.
Owen Thomas
>another week of no DK awakening holy fuck, why did I reroll
Asher Carter
I have a question about ordered looting. Does it evenly distribute all loot, even whites? I know about special deals, but my question is the things that drop at sousans that you turn on for gold.
If I have 4 pets and someone has 1, would the trash loot be evenly distributed between the two of us, or does the person with more / better pets get all the profits?
For example, before I had 4 pets I was grinding with a friend and only special deals was on and he got 8,000 armour fragments to turn in (8 gold) and I got 2,000 (2 gold) and that was when I had 2 pets. If ordered looting was on, would we each have recieved 5,000 armour fragments?
Colton Rogers
Ranger any good?
Gavin Cox
ya
Thomas Scott
Rangers are great!
Justin Young

I just finished nier: automata, someone fuck me now in BDO! I need that BBC
Asher Mitchell
S+ should only be chars that are gods in siege/node DK doesn't belong near that.
Luis Cruz
Laps are good seats!
Thomas Carter
no thanks, you're ugly and annoying
Leo Powell
NA or EU?
Luis Wright
>tumblr
Grayson Bennett
>Dk awakening >Not god in siege/node Dk awakening is literally a better wizard
Parker Roberts
ur right man, when DK gets awakening they also get healing and DPS buffs for the group!
Ryan Morales
>siege/node >relevant topkek
Jackson Cruz
What a retarded answer, expected from somebody who has never done sieges.
DK isn't close to Wizard usefulness.
Jason Wright
They get to kill you in one hit at 150 ap, sounds more than enough
Xavier Anderson
haha yea man 1v1 and grinding pve matters more, +1
it really feels like dumb waifufags are the ones replying
Dylan Brown
>haha yea man 1v1 and grinding pve matters more glad you understand
Asher Ross
And even then Wizard is better than DK, ask any Korean.
Luis Campbell
as a totally new player, does it matter much what i spend my energy on? i see its kinda like archeage's labor points. are they as important?
Brayden Jenkins
cringe
Leo Smith
No, not even close.
Joshua Butler
I'd say grab conversation stuff when you can, and try to empty it out gathering trees, throw all the tree shit into your bank.
Oliver Jones
>30 minutes at sausans with 200% EXP and 100% Olvia bonus >10% EXP
yeah I don't think this game is for me
Ryan Gray
5 hours for a level is really not bad.
Elijah Gonzalez
Yeah, but that's with the 200% daily grinding time shit. I guess I could just grind during that every day.
Luis Barnes
>1h grinding with 100% daily EXP buff and 100% weekend buff >Under 0.1% EXP
Logan Evans
what do conversations generally do in this game? quests?
Dylan Price
How can this game be THAT dynamic and then feel clunky as fuck at the same time? The jumping, the vaulting, everything outside of combat feels so weird.. I want to love it but.. Fuck.
Luis Rodriguez
do i use regular ap or awakening ap when adding together my gearscore
Ethan Young
whichever is higher
Adam Gutierrez
It's just for unlocking knowledge stuff. A few of the conversation options have other uses, but completing knowledge topics grants energy.
Nathaniel Price
i have a warrior, wizard, and berserker which should i focus on
Easton Anderson
just move to korea to get the best experience and fastest internet infrastructure at the same time! wow!
Jace Rogers
alright thanks.
Jackson Carter
Tamer
Leo Martinez
Tamer
Tyler Powell
>moving to a third world shit hole. user please
Noah Powell
tamer
Ian Adams
It's not even the latency, it's just how the game is, like playing Kuno sprinting and jumping it feels like she stops, then proceed to jump straight, land heavily for 1 solid second and then you can control the character again. I just love to run and jump around feely, I think WoW destroyed my fucking MMO life.
Carter Thomas
>tfw i seriously was considering maining a tamer the other day
I'm afraid the awakening is going to be super boring.
Robert Ramirez
>Musa 55 What skills should i keep after hitting 56? Other than passives and mobility ofc, considering keeping the ones i have skill addons on for regen
>I'm afraid the awakening is going to be super boring.
It is, i got tired after getting mine to 57. On the other hand switching between awakening and shortsword is very nice since there are skills that allow you to transition seamless between them.
Jordan Martinez
>WoW So in other words you want to play a game where the character feels like they're not even part of the world and also have zero weight?
Connor Roberts
Pretty much yea, that's fun to me.
Kevin Bell
i just started playing and i noticed this as well, especially the jumping. doesnt seem so bad as to turn me away from the game but just for instance running around the starting area doesnt really feel smooth, and i dont mean fps wise. i wonder if playing with a gamepad makes any difference? if thats even a thing?
Jose Price
I mean movement in WoW feels nicer than in BDO because you don't rubberband when dashing/climbing, jumping is consistent albeit floaty climbing over shit in BDO feels really slow and obtrusive but it's interesting at least
Jonathan Richardson
Chop all the wood!
Henry Davis
At least in WoW you don't constantly get stuck in a million pebbles or some shit every few seconds.
Sebastian Clark
Come on, man, I don't even play WoW but I know that it probably doesn't feel like dog shit while just moving or a billion people wouldn't have played it.
Matthew Jones
It doesn't which I think is one of the main reasons it was so successful when it first came out
Logan Mitchell
Private servers still struggle with getting Warrior's charge to feel even close to as good as on retail. It's kind of amazing how huge of an impact slight details on movement make.
Easton White
No they don't, that was almost 10 years ago, stop lying.
Mason Lee
Where did you pull that lie from? I played on Nost and it was just like vanilla retail.
Jaxon Morgan
the problem is that there are too many things in the game world that you get stuck on if you only so much as look at them, also collision with npcs, while it does add a little bit to the immersion, also makes moving around in towns/cities feel like shit because you constantly get slowed down
Daniel Gonzalez
>collision with npcs this fucking triggers me so much, I hate doing bosses and having some moron witch or wizard summon spawn on top of me and desync me, that shit should not have collision
Christian Ortiz
But summons don't have collision
Gavin Lopez
>doing a boss >witch/wizard is the most popular class >fucking faggot golems everywhere cluttering your screen and fucking shit up
Why the FUCK can't we remove those gay faggots just like normal pets???
Nolan Long
They're working on this in Star Citizen. Coming from BDO I found it questionable and am not sure it will be fun.
Josiah Young
Help, how much do i pre order a duo blue coral earing for??
Aiden Jackson
75m might be safe, not sure though
Joseph Butler
...
Camden Hall
are niggas really paying that much when they could invest in shadow rings?
Lincoln Thompson
Are pet birds worth getting for that knowledge gain and knowledge grade increase? Long-tailed Rosefinch is CUTE and I'm concidering buying 2. Is the increased knowledge chance from accessories also worth getting if I was to get birds? Glasses are cute!
