And you are too on the nose Hubb, I can see it happening.

It is supposed to stay in place until they rework the system, but who knows if they'll keep to that. I'd say do whatever you can today and hope they are still there tomorrow.
Is leveling going to be easier or do you think this will only apply to people with 330+ap/dp?
Kinda scared of even trying Valencia.
My valk is 310 ap/dp. I can solo grind pirates w/o much issue so I'm hoping valencia won't be too tough though I'll most likely enhance my gears a bit before venturing out there.
I'm right around you (289), but I am lagging in levels.
We'll see what happens with the patch though. They toned down stuff for Mediah when they held off the +20 patch. Even though we are getting that patch now, not many people are going to be able to get even +18 right away. So they may tone down the mobs a bit for part 1 and leave the stuff in part 2 and 3 normal.
Actually I am seeing if they don't tone down the mobs 160 AP is recommended. If that's the case I am in a lot of trouble, but I'd be surprised if they don't tone the stuff down from KR.
160...what is that, ogre/pri ogre, duo marks and Witches? Outside of sorcs, nooo idea how people get ap that high. Even if I worked for pri acc and liverto +15, with BS gem I could only hit around 140. Maybe it's fine of they leave it as it is, but I imagine I will never make it to Valencia X.X
No idea, just what I saw. It does seem like the +16 and above on weapons gives a lot though. I get 8 AP going from 15 to 16, so going to +18 should give 24AP.
I'm still rocking yuria +15 and probably will forever at this rate. Got no monies to buy liver or kaz long swords. Last time I joined wb battle, kaz didn't give me anything..nada. -___-
He has a horrible drop rate for sure. I'm going to preorder and see if I get one within six months. Short sword though, doubt anyone will sell one.
Hopefully liverto will be easier if you can get them with hunters seals!
Glad that the +18 upgrade can be forced, that's a big jump in AP.
I think there is a quest being added that lets you obtain a liverto after farming X amount of seal or something. I was finally able to snag one off the market but it was bow so I think i'm going to focus on ranger for a bit now until I can get enough cash to get an axe going.
Oh that's sweet. I can finally get a liver. Though i would like a kaz for my valk. Can you share some of your monies with me, tops
That's ok, I am not even worried about Liv right now I still need to work on 56. By the time the ninja comes out I would have put in so much time in my tamer I'm not going to want to give it up.
If you are getting to 56 anyway, might as well enjoy the awakened weapons too! Tamer looks pretty kick-ass awakened, can't wait to try the Jo.
After the patch hubub, debating about whether or not to forget boss armor and verts entirely. Seems a lot cheaper to go for +18 green armor and ult weaps, you'd at least survive in Valencia and PvP and wouldn't have to deal with all the awful RNG.

It only took how many patches for the actual desert the game is named after to appear...
Just be careful with the green armor. People are reporting you can't ultimate an item once it is past +15. They will hopefully fix that in a patch.
Thanks for the heads up! After reading about it more, it seems this may be by design in the KR version, and that it's just an awful system.
I learned two other things this morning:
1, in terms of cost versus performance, liverto is way better to level up because of the huge increase in accuracy for roughly the same cost.
2, forcing upgrades for yuria to +18 is a massive waste of money based on the statistics of failstacks and the current cost of forcing, which again means liverto is the best option (if you are going to spend 150 mil to upgrade to +18, it's better to fail stack livert and use the same amount or less than it would cost you to force yuria).
Dunno about boss armor, but I'm guessing it's true there too..now about those hebetate armor drop rates...

Shiiet, haven't played since just before Mediah came out. Anyone care to catch me up to speed on things? Going to try to get back in to this now that I've got things out of the way that kept me from this in the first place.
Curse my random desire to replay Dragon's Dogma.

In a nutshell, Mediah and Valencia came out since so yeah, the game world is now 2x larger than when you last played.

Anything else as far as the meta goes?
...Probably going to spend my free Appearance Change to make my Valk look like Pyrrha Nikos while I'm at it, IDK. I'll probably be able to do a better job here than I managed in DDogma.
Let's not pretend that half the playerbase of BD didn't make their characters look like their waifu.

Finally gave this game a shot and hooooly crap it's good. I was really skeptical but it's blowing me away so far.
I really love that there's no fast travel, at least that i've found. I had to get some things done so I left my buddy in the town we'd reached and I had to head back to the main city. It starts raining and I was trotting through the rain and passing through a foggy swamp. When the rain let up the road was covered in puddles of water, which was awesome looking. I love that I have to keep track of my mount. It gives a significance to travel and location. I can't just hearth back (not a dig at WoW, I love WoW).
The world just feels so alive. I'm a low level mage in fairly scrappy clothes riding a slow donkey, but I feel like i'm a part of a living world. Guilds are warring around me (including one that has Steve Harvey's face plastered everywhere), land is in flux, things are happening. I feel like I have a low station in the world and it's great.
The combat is fun too. I'm a bit overwhelmed with how many spells my Witch has, I don't use most of them, but it's a spectacle and feels visceral. It captures the oomph that a powerful magic user should have.

Hmm, yea I have had my eye on this game for a bit and was afraid of being overwhelmed. I played the beta as Valkyrie, and enjoyed it mostly. I didn't get into the more nuanced activities because it looked too confusing and made me want to start crying.
I'm thinking of finally buying this game. I hear housing is hard to come by now since I'd be joining late? That makes me want to bust out crying. Game looks really immersive though. Which also makes me want to tear up because it is beautiful.
So I don't have this game but does this mean kunoichi releases too? Do they usually release both gender classes at once?

Yes, both are coming.
OK thanks.

Only guild houses are hard to come by as it's auctioned. Regular houses are instanced. Anyone can buy whatever house they want when they want
When they mean by increased black stone drop event, I hope that includes hard/sharp shards..I went through 400 shovels last night without anything..though got two hard shards through gardening/farming.
Oh okay thanks guys for answering my noob questions!
How so? Do you mean between EU and US?

Well this is dumb, was gonna check if this game had a free trial, but it turns out it's IP blocked in a ton of countries, including mine. Probably the first online game I've run into that IP blocks you =/
Seems like it.

God damn this region restrictions bullshit. I wanna play but can't, as Israel (and a bunch of other countries) are ip blocked from the service.
VlaudTheImpaler
tl;dr
So, anyone with a 1080 playing this? How does it run? I'm interested in trying it but don't know where to start.
The night vendors sound like they are as big a waste of money as the forcing mechanic.
Here, tree spirit armor only 400 million! Now spend another 300 million to upgrade .... I really wish they increased boss armor drop rates ><
Otherwise excited for Kunoichi!
