Hello, guys! I would like to share my recent experience in the past 2 months. I will be as short as possible as well.
Endgame is very well balanced. Offers your Job PVP zone, the Desert. You can join there only in job costume. The rewards are:
1. All mobs drop jewel boxes. Rewards of those are elixirs, speed scrolls and tablets. You can get Immortal, Lucky and Astral tablets as well. 30 min farm = 50 boxes on average = 0-3 Immortals. It solves your crafting issues.
2. Quests in the Desert are extremely rewarding in terms of Exp/SP points. For a slow server like that, I would say 9% exp and 12k clean SP points at level 99 for quest you are doing for 30min to 1 hour is crazy good. Let's have It in mind the server never ever claimed to be a fast one for leveling. The quests system these days allows you to play at zero gap all the way. From quests you can receive Beghemots for trade which is the best mount in the game for that, not even for rubins. Other type of scrolls for damage and defence are rewards of the other quests.
3. Job system in short. Best route is to the shop in the Desert. The reward is gold and Job Points. You can get Sun set(Chest, Legs etc.) and SoM Weapon with Job points. You can get all sorts of Items with Job points - pandoras, +2 scrolls for your items(which are expensive in terms of gold, you can't just farm with them).
What else we have there is a way to have a Sun Accessory set which you can get collecting recipes from Medusa and killing Bosses like Isy, Uruchi. Lord Yarkan etc. to get the souls necessary for those recipes.
Leveling might feel tedious sometimes if you're doing it solo. Just join a guild, people are friendly, most of them
. Bosses are killed constantly, zero gap should be find if you do the Desert quests. I think you have SoS weapon as a quest reward every 10 levels until 60, not sure about that. Once you get to that level you can just trade and get pandoras. Level up with them until 70 to get into jangan cave and bosses there will carry you up until the end + the quests in the desert.
Balance in the server is good. It's a topic that no one would be ever happy about
Chinese has a buff and are good chars, meant to be all rounders. Doing good in everything but not the best in one thing. I have to say that Admins are very responsive in terms of major balance changes and listen to the feedback provided only and only if its truly objective and beneficial for everyone. Example: black res of EU Cleric got increased cooldown as in the job war people could res themself constantly while being immortal which overextends the battle which may never end. There is no reverse(there is a quest for reverse scrolls as well) in the Desert.
About pay to win aspect of the game. It's almost non-existent. As we said Immortals and Astrals you can get from the farming in the Desert. Buying clocks for your grab pet is the only thing here. You have some sort of bonus rubins when you repair your equipment + voting in the website but this will give you a clock maybe once every 2 months. On the other side, If you buy rugins for 1 premium, so you can level faster and just clocks afterward - It's gonna be almost no money spent and very affordable in my opinion(I'm not rich
)
Conclusion about the end game. You farm in the Desert to improve your items, doing trade to get your Sun set and Moon weapon and doing quests in the Desert to get SP and level up for 100(which I found to be relatively fast for a low rate server). Everything is happening in the Desert at the moment, most of It. Which is great as it brings people together. As long as you play(no botting allowed) you would be able to get your set, enjoy the job war and everything about this game. Or you can just become a silent Thief which no one knows and attack others in the Desert. Probably I missed a lot but I tried to create a short post and I failed about that
. It's a very fun game, a great server to play! I highly recommend it!
