    While I certainly don't like games that are too easy, the other end of the spectrum (grinding and chores for the sake of grinding and chores) isn't appealing either.

    last I heard grinding was made "harder" (as in more health and more damage) for the west because according to Pearl Abyss Koreans don't like grinding so that's why they made sure it was easier in KR (no idea to what extend since I never played there). I guess they changed their minds on that

    What? That's a first... It's exactly the opposite.

    I think he meant the health and damage was upped for the west because koreans are too "casual", I had read about that when looking things up where in the beta the mobs were supposedly a lot harder and the korean market forced them to get the mobs to the point you see today where they're just trivial.

    You're a funny person.

    Koreans like grinding so much that Korean editors seem unable to make an MMORPG that is not based around grinding, alas

    You got that wrong. They don't like grinding when it's "difficult".

    I take it Dark Souls didn't do well there.
    Internet forums are more for circlejerking (patting each other on the back) than actual discussion (exchange and analysis of information and points of view). Took me long enough to realise ...

    It sure is more difficult than most RPGs.

    Hello. I'm looking for Feedback and Opinions from the BDO Community,
    What are your thoughts on Plum & Tamer?

    I'm looking for feedback and advice, on How these 2 classes fare in terms of Solo AoE grinding and if they have good ways to gather up lots of mobs together. I don't care much for PvP, so that woulden't be a factor in my Decision.

    Please leave some feedback about how your game experience has been with these 2 classes

    Thanks.

    Both are actually pretty decent when it comes to just pure mob grinding, tamer at high elvels does have the edge in pvp and while you said that isn't a factor, it is something to keep in mind if sat someone tries to gank you while grinding. You still want to be able to protect yourself. Maewha has received a lot of buffs recently, and while she kills stuff pretty fast and has some decent AoE, she is more single target based while Musa (blader) is the more aoe class of the two.

    Less than a week for Valencia, interested to see how the new enchanting system is going to work. Hopefully 20 shards is enough for a TRI weapon :|

    You mean merging all channels or all servers together? I don't think there is any plans for either.

    Never have I lost interest for a game quicker than I did for this. Went from playing few hours a day at least to not even bothering logging in almost over night. Think one of the main things that got to me is being almost forced to reroll. Adding in new classes a month after release is so stupid. And being I wanted to play a normal looking human male, guess what class I picked. Wish Blader was available from the beginning.

    also quit the game recently.It's a good game if u enjoy crafting/exploring/life skills/housing and grinding piss easy mobs.Combat is fun but dsync makes pvp and pve(world bosses especially) unbearable for me.This is also the most rng heavy game i played,you can be a hardcore player (play 24/7) and still have worst gear than a guy playing 1-2h because he got lucky drops that involve 0 skill which is a stupid game design imo.Hope for the guys that still play the game Daum will fix the servers and sieges/node wars won't be lag fests.

    It's open world large scale pvp, it's going to be the same shit show its been in literally every.single.game. that has tried to do it. Which is evidenced by the youtube videos of it being exactly that.

    Well, there goes Valencia on the 1st.

    Due technical reason have decided to delay the release of the Valencia update. More information on our forum.

    Meh, not thrilled with this move. I feel the monotony wearing down my guild members and they were pretty excited for this next patch. Going to be tough keeping motivation high - mainly since there isn't a new release date...

    ^This i'm still laughing as player who seriously think that open world server events that get loads of players on one spot can work properly computing wise.
