At first I thought you just have to level a priest or bishop to around level 80 and you will find that it already have the buffs of CM, Huna and Priest. (by simply adding the buff spells to the skills tree of the priest/bishop).

But nooo. I have to level a CM first, to 80, with 1.5 exp.
Then I have to level a Huna, to 80, with 1.5 exp.
Then I have to level a priest, to 80, with 1.5 exp.

Aaaand then and only then I get to play the game on my main character and see if I like the server ?

Goodluck with that.
Getting buffs is not content.
Leveling 4 characters is not the game.
Not having proper buffs is not a feature.

If the dev fails to see how this system is pointless and anti-fun and a handicap for absolutely no reason, then I'm out already.

Also level 1 buffs don't do ****. Might aswell not have them at all on the NPC.

It is a nice thought idea to merge those buffs.
BUT: the game is meant to be played the way it was/is.
And that means people have to play these classes as main classes and find partys with it and actually be useful with the classes.
Just buff those classes skills so you can also go solo with them and then you wont need any buff NPC or merge buffs because people will actually play the classes anyways.
If there will be merged buffs then 3 playable classes will be dead. Then whats left? Assassins/DH, champions/archer, soldier/knight. If petclasses wont get buffed they are useless anyways.

Also balancing all classes is priority #1. If the server is made of 20 assassins it is dead already. Make it playable for every class! (petclasses)

Another question: why droprate 12,5x? Thats way too much for 1,5x exp.
Please make it to 1,5x or 2x aswell and maybe add lucky potions in a custom drop box which rarely drops...

Anyways if you try to accept criticism from other people a server like this can be successful. It just needs a concept for which it stays loyal.

I always say: if you drop an empty orc you should jump up and scream. Thats the time when rappelz was awesome.

After the big first wave of players that join together in server launch, there will be no one farming low level dungeons.

New players (after 2 weeks of server launch) won't find any groups farming low level dungeons, and also they won't find buffs that will allow them to solo farm. So they will just leave.

It's better to "ruin low lvl gameplay" for new players BUT allow them to progress and stay and not leave for being stuck at level 30 with no groups and no buffs and no money.

dude play it or don't IDFC its free and it works

yes you can play pet class its not so bad compared to auto atk king (I play SB myself)

cus 12.5x is just a number and it feels more like 2-3x depending on epic you referring to

[mullman1]

ah okay.
just dont make droprate too high.
It should be some effort to get equip/pets...

Yeah i am just talking about some adjustments for other classes. Just some cooldowns and a bit more of dmg/debuff strength, not much.

Anyways i will play the server!
Where can we get any news? Is there a discord server/homepage?
Just dont release before you think everything is working perfect.

I tested the server and i feel like droprate is 1x instead.

Drops are very rare and pet cards even more, everything just feels perfect people need to try it because just talking about it doesnt do it justice.

This is the type of server all of us hardcore players were looking for and it finally happened. No cash shop no pay 2 win mechanics, owner is not making money off of it, perfect rates, capable and active admins, everything you want from a private server.

will there be an announcement when you open the server?

No... you still don't get it you need to level them up to around 90, not 80
