Yeah, I believe that is because outfits do not give stat bonuses but still, I want more options.

I meant in the world itself. NPCs, characters, etc.
They're all martial artists, why would they be wearing bulky armor of any type?
I understand the desire for less fan service (well I don't really) but this isn't an "armor" game.
Edit: You weren't arguing this point, sorry for quoting you, guess this is for Disxo more
It's all good. Again, the only ones I see with armor are the Talus. Those Gladiator looking dudes in the PvP area with shields in Misty Woods.

That's kind of what I did when making mine (Just started)
Wanted to make a Destroyer first and achieve some kind of huge looking character, but that's not really possible the way I wanted it, as it lacks an option to make the character even remotely muscular looking.
So I kept the glorious thighs and backside and went with a Force-master
Thing is, looking at the average character population going 'big' is a way to make your character stand-out.
Looks awesome
I saw a few characters where they were shrunk to the size of a Lyn, probably less even, but they were still proportionate to humans. They looked like shrunk mannequins lolIt looks fabulous, but there's no butt window for the Gon. That's my guess
I'm down with that. A spear wielding class would be super boss too! =D

One of those is a mod for Yun. That actuLly Jin Soyun's fallen angel form.

Spins can only be countered by knock downs, you have to save and time your attacks to knock them down to force their tab then you do 3rf and watch them die.
Spins, what? I'm saying I couldn't knock them down period because everytime I tried it would resist. Also no 3rf yet

They might have their tab escapes up. I knock down those spinny fuckers all the time. It depends if you skill also has peirces guard and reflect. Check your skill tree.

I mean, I am all for more diverse options but if you look at the wuxia genre in general it's pretty rare for them to be wearing armor at all. It's almost entirely cloth based attire, and in that sense I don't think the game is that far out of line. Your examples aren't really how martial artists are portrayed in wuxia, they are how common/low-skilled soldiers are portrayed. Talus is actually a good example of them fitting that mold pretty well.
I still want more diversity though.

I'll have to post my big handed destroyer when I get on. I even have an outfit that gives him fingernails just so that his hands look bigger.
Doesn't answer my question, as I wasn't asking about escapes.

Does your knock down peirce defence and deflect?
Some of them do yes. It was still getting resisted.

Could also be your hit. Where they a higher level player?

Maybe you attacked them when they had their guardian tempest up?
Thank you, this is what I was looking for. Though it's on a 45 second cooldown, so couldn't account for all the cases.
But anyways, my original question that never got answered. Equipment and soul shields don't matter right? There's no outside factors other than what skills you have obtained?
Correct, arena PVP sets everyone to the same stats.
ShinMaruku

That skill is one of their escapes. All stats are somewhat equalized there are class differences and different skills.

It should say reflected and blocked and what not. Also know their animations that can tell you a great deal.

Korean MMOs aren't for you.
I hear TESO might have what you're looking for though. Or SWTOR.
those and gw2.

GW2 can get lewd.

Question regarding pvp arena, will your rank drop at some point when you lose? I only lost twice and didn't see my rank drop.
Cash shop RNG? Fuck that.
Question : If I get premium for a single month, do I keep wardrobe permanently? I don't usually care about cosmetic stuff but some of the costumes are pretty decent looking and my storage space is hurting.
I find it dumb to lock Wardrobe and Mail behind a paywall
Anything you have in storage will stay in storage after premium runs out. You can pull stuff out at any time, but you won't be able to put anything in without subscribing again.
It's the worst.

On the bright side, whale will buy them and drive the moonwater stone's value down.

It is dumb.
They need to have a $20 (or whatever) "convenience" pack.
- Wardrobe
- Put more items on the Marketplace
That's it. I'd pay $20 for that to have it all unlocked forever.
Nonono, I love this game that was just some kind of critique I made mainly because this is one of the first korean mmos I played, but nothing else, thanks for the suggestion though.
Thanks for the response. Will not go for premium then... don't play enough to justify this purchase.
Fun game tho... I had my doubts while playing Summoner but as much as I suck with Assassin, I find it way more satisfying.
How is that a bright side? Moonwater stones were such a good way to make money.

well bright side for people that can't craft the stone.

I should actually do this because I basically have 20 outfit items sitting in storage or my inventory.

The majority of players benefit when their weapon upgrades aren't walled off by scarcity of these stones.
Fortunately it seems they were only trying to stall players a few weeks until Mushin's Tower and Nightshade Harbor were ready, so stones should hopefully become plentiful soon.
Lookin good... I regret using the default model since I usually don't like wasting time in character editors.

This should just be illegal, it is gambling targeting the minors.
I ran a couple of dungeons yesterday and honestly, I have no idea what's going on. People just run in and before I even knew what was going on the whole event is over and I'm the only one in the dungeon. No idea if any loot dropped, though there was this bid window that popped up, but I wasn't sure what that was. I just passed since I didn't think I'd use whatever crafting material showed up.
Also, I'm at the point where my weapon needs to evolve, but it looks like it requires another weapon to do it. Is that right? I have the ore (or whatever it is) and using another weapon doesn't seem to work, so I'm going to assume that it requires the weapon listed. I've never seen it anywhere and it looks to be a purple weapon as well. I haven't been able to change the look of the weapon either since so many blue weapons I get can't be used as a vanity item. I'm kinda bummed out.

Yeah this is getting out of hand. Game is getting pretty scummy.
