Viridian Quartz seems to take 40-60 minutes. I've only personally timed it once, which is where my 40 minute figure comes from. I've read 1 hour a few times, so I'm throwing that in there too. I have no clue on the others.

I need to level an Assassin. Mobs just standing there while you whale on them in stealth is hilariously OP for PvE.
I wonder how Mushin's Tower even works for Assassin. Does anything even attack them ever?

Is there a resource that shows what every weapon skin looks like? I need to find a staff skin that isn't HOLYFUCKINGSHITGRIMDARKDEMONFACESANDHORNS and such. Just doesn't fit how lighthearted Summoner is.
EDIT: Hoooooly fucking shit, 31 silver to glamor my weapon. Never mind. I'll wait until dailies start giving a ton of money.

Finished most quests. There's a few I skipped because they sucked ass but now I need to look towards end-game.
1) Farm the Brightstone recipe
2) Upgrade stuff to Siren
3) Dokumo + Arena Shields?
4) Faction Dailies?

Hey guys we're sending out invites to the overflow guild, if you haven't already, post your name here.
Still giving invites? Don't believe I got one for Reina Verne
~1hour if the Node gives 1ore,
~3hours if 2-3 ores
~6hours if 5-7 ores.
At least that were the times I read during beta etc.
Farming Faction Dailies is important because you need the soulshards. It also helps that you can do all of them in 15~ minutes, specially if you catch someone doing them too and group.
Doing the Poh 24 man dailies are important if you want to make some cash, but that's it. They take 45~ give or take 10 minutes depending on how lucky you are.
Farming faction insignia's for the PvP soulshields seems to be the best bet right now (though I'm not 100%). You can use the Soulshields from Poh to add crit to them.
Run the 6 man epic dungeon.
Wait for Tower of Mushin.

You guys can keep your ass-window costumes, because these hips don't lie.

Nice. I'd post the same only wearing my bear suit since it would look hilarious. Buuut I'm too lazy.
By bear suit I mean the ass window costume, of course. It just doesn't have an ass window on Lyns, thankfully.

Oh I forgot to ask gaf:
I got upo to the part where it asked me if I wanted to do a pvp, PvE, or dungeon oriented build with my skill points.
1. I just pressed cancel, will I be able to revisit that screen again?
2. Also, would that even be a good thing to follow? I'm sure players have already come up with better builds than that?
3. Is there a way to switch between builds?
4. How much do skill resets cost?

This is definitely not currently accurate, I've just timed two Viridian Quartz nodes that provided 2 ore, they respawned at 40 minutes on the dot. I was going to track more nodes, but 9 in a row gave me 2 quartz... Kind of lucky in an unlucky way I guess.

Infinite free resets. Don't worry about anything and experiment with everything.
Build switching only if you pay for extra pages.
1. You can do that anytime from the skill menu. In the top right there's a thumbs up icon, it lets you do these "recommended" builds.
2. Can't say, didn't do it myself.
3 & 4. You can change around your skill points freely whenever you want. There's a cash shop item that lets you save multiple builds for quickly swapping, though.
Edit: Beaten, thankfully as double post avoided since I forgot to edit this in x,x

I might add that pages are $10 each. Sometimes I really wonder how much convenience is actually worth in this world.
Holy fuck! That's amazing! Why dont more mmos allow experimentation like this???!!!!
Sawwweeet! Siiick sick sick!
Yeah, this is one of the things that they did right with this game for sure.
Also, one thing I like about destroyers -- the rescue skill!
Lol you can pick up anyone of your partners in your party, and jump super high and far away like a super hero and place them down lolololol! I can hold anyone in one hand and they look like a tiny doll.
When I started picking people up they were all like " wtf?? You can do that?"
Ooh! Ooh! Another question for gaf:
What does it mean when you have a heart over your head? Does someone have a crush on me?

Sin's are funny too. They can pull dead comrades with the flower from far away through walls. Saw someone pull someone from the other side of the wall at the Gatekeeper in Poh.Also, one thing I like about destroyers -- the rescue skill!

Hey, what shield stats should I be focusing on as a blade dancer? My initial guess was accuracy and block but everyone seems to worship crit regardless of class.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Damn, this game randomly KOs my PC just like FF14 does. PC must be allergic to Asian MMOs.
Yea I was thinking block for my destroyer too since I don't evade alot (well I've never seen my destroyer evade at all tbh).

Every class is a DPS in this game, including the tanks. Crit benefits everyone.
A BD benefits from crit because when you're in Draw Stance after pushing C (or V if talented) every time you do your LMB (Flicker) you use up 1 Focus. When you have zero Focus, you are put back into Basic Stance.
The majority of BD DPS is from Draw Stance, that's your burst. When you're in Basic Stance recovering Focus and waiting for C (or V) to come off CD, your DPS is really bad. Your goal as BD is essentially to maintain Draw Stance as long as possible and be in it as often as possible, preferably almost all the time except when you're grabbing the boss or helping with boss CCs because some of your CC skills put you back into Basic stance.
Now, the thing about Flicker is, if you crit with Flicker, you get 1 Lightning Orb (up to a stack of 3). This is what allows you to use Lightning Flash (talented Flash Step) on F. Lightning Flash is a big damage attack, AND it also recovers 1 Focus.
You see where I'm going with this. Everytime your Flicker crits, you get 1 orb or 1 use of Lightning Flash. This is a big DPS burst and it's also recovering your Focus so you can stay in Draw Stance longer.
This is also the basis of the BD anim-cancel. To see this, simply press LMB-LMB-LMB over and over and see how long it takes between each Flicker. Now, use this pattern: LMB-LMB-F-LMB-LMB-F when you have Lightning Orbs. Notice how the 2nd LMB animation cancels instantly into F? That's good, it's a big increase in DPS if you can practice and get that cadence down.

But shields can be upgraded to contain multiple stats. Crit could be one of them; naturally. But others might include....whatever the fuck we want all hail crit?

I don't really know what else you want besides HP and Crit. The bosses are designed to punish you severely if they hit you, so you're either iframing with Q/E/SS or a skill that grants invulnerability or blocking if you're BM/KFM. You never rely on natural mitigation for soaking boss hits in this game, you just want a big HP pool so when you do mess up it's not a 1-shot or 2-shot and you want Crit so the boss dies faster. That's pretty much it.

I don't think shield builds really matter for PVE.
Pancakes
hot, steaming, as melted butter slips into the cracks, drizzled with sticky sweet syrup OH GOD
The extra HP is pretty handy on the deva and yehara's mirage ones.
Same reason as everyone else. Korean kung-fu grinding and combat with a side of booty.

I mean I would imagine PVP builds would naturally dip their toes into block or evasion so accuracy would be vital for a DPS? Like say a PVP and PVE build could be accuracy, hp and crit.

I had to spend like 50 silver buying up pinchy essences on the marketplace. I would not have had the patience to actually fight that stupid scorpion more then 10 times.
didnt know you could buy it. just bought 9 with all the silver I had and nothing lol >_< I give up

Um yeah they do. Your pizza is like your gear in other MMOs.
Arena PvP is normalized. What you're wearing is irrelevant there.
OWPvP is pretty much whatever you get your hands on. I don't think anybody cares about OWPvP beyond getting faction dailies done.
Aight thanks. Guess thats like 12 pm. -_-
Did anyone got the secret agent costume yet? That one looks pretty sick and I want it. :>
kinda wish you hadnt told me that, at least I would have just wasted my time, not all my money LOL
I have like 40 spins worth of stuff in my bags, plus the weapon boxes I already opened to level my axe and whtnot, until I realised it takes 2 keys to open those. oh well, Ill go back at max level I guess
