Im just lolling at everyone in this thread at the moment, fighting over such ridicilous things, i can see how some of the highest lvl of the server would stop, Myself, not one of them. I would consider a reset after all the abuse of bugs, and leveling methods just an awesome way to get a restart, of all the level 100's on this server sofar, Myself, Ceejzor, Angel Celes and Nuxohiz are the only onse that FOUGHT to get to were we are, all of us would fight to get to where we are onse again, if the server would restart. The reason we are the onse that fought the hardest is we played the worst classes out there, aswell as not abusing anything for the money.
Me, a 111 Berserker, Struggled with leveling, as the problems have been explained in earlier posts, Low damage, doesn't really benefit AT all from theire passive, No Axes in game xept 2-3, and the one that actually had potential you cant get ores for.
Ceejzor, a swordsman, sure he's a half tank/ half dps, still he does about the same damage as me,
Angel Celes, Spearman. Maybe not so hard to level persey, Though she dsnt pull much damage.
Nuxohiz on the other hand is a 100 saint, actually sticking to the top at all times w/o being what you would call a "nerd".
My Recomendation on the wood has been that why are we even able to sell it at all? It's an RPG server damit, nothing should come easy, neither levels nor money. Wood shouldnt be sellable, it should be stricly bound to BSing, and with Wood and Ore's you could make Cheap weapons, sell em or upgrade em and sell em for more. it would all even out.
The Only fault i see with the server at the moment and what would be worth resetting over is the apparent Abuse in class chosing, if you check the recently created characters, Theire Defenders, Mainly because the TANK Class of all the classes Does the more DPS at the moment, they can easilly one hit most of the classes out there.
Summoners, Dsnt really do much in PvP, yet theire Tank summons can tank 2/3's of a defender, by doing 2/3 as much dmg aswell, and tahts EACH summon, by a total of 2 it would be a 4/3 to a defender.
1. I feel that the release of the server were WAAAAAY to hasty, they should have considerd all the buggs before releasing it, Making 90% of these crashes non existant from the start,
2. They should have thought about the part about being able to sell wood, but Not 99% of the items that dropped, which forced people to camp the trees,
3. Making a proper balance in classes when the beta were out. If you chose to play a saint or a defender on a RPG server such as this, you chose yourself, to put away all the soloing all together, you should barely be able to take down a mob 1v1, you should basiclly either stand there healing yourself, or as a defender, just stand there and not take any dmg, while not doing any dmg.
4. Map isn't Big enough at the moment for 100 players to play nor to quest, (i hvnt explored all, but im pretty sure im close to most that dsnt need heavy questing"
5. Rifts should already have been released Since most people above 100 got nothing to do, either they dont know where to get a particular item for a quest, it dsn't exist or its a 0.1% drop chance from a mob we have yet to find the whereabout.
6. ALL items needed for BSing should have been placed in the world (Like vanan ore's for axes, theres like a 0.001% drop chance from druidesses atm, and tahts frigging insane even for a RPG server)
7. Classes such as berserkers, Necromancers Defender and swordsman should have theire spells remaked to more suit theire Class,
as a berserker the AS is fine, but actually having to hunt at 10% HP, requires me to hunt cyclops on lvl 100 (just a suggestion) is the only way to actually benefit from it, Else im pretty much dead on 1 hit, or if i stay on higher health, wasting like crazy cause i deal no Damage.
Edit: Aswell as the above on berserkers, They should be the most fiercest Class of all warriors, making not the high hits, but the fast insane dmg, with the lack of survability, MORE Single target Attacks without the 16 sec CD, or the 220 sec CD on Skill increase,skills that actually declare that someone is a bersker.
Necromancers, Theire Passive is REALLY bad, I mean sure the Mobs when ever you kill something, that lasts for 30 seconds is a pretty cool feature, But RARELY that mob makes it to even hit another one, It would be more awesome if they get an like "Decreassed Minion Timer for each Minion. For example. 2 minions (reduce the time your minions stay out by 15sec) and so on, As a passive, and the ability to summon undeads out of corpses should be a spell that they can cast at theire own chosing for a 20 mana or so.
The reasons why i see yo not reset the server sofar, is that the onse of us that actually HAVE fought and struggled to get to where we are, just loose this week we have been patientlly waiting by the crashes, and not being angry or quitting, We've simply been going back out there.
Thats why i vote, IF there is going to be a Reset, playes above 100, or even 110 Should get a 100% bonus exp, for lets say.. 2days? The people between 80-100 would get a 50% bonus, That would even out the part of lost time for lvling.
