Offline Gathering 3-8-2009, A quick update from march 8??? Options

[Soul of Linkers]

Royal Guard will be focused on heavy defence,

hell yes more defense, you can never have enough defense, <3 being a walking fucking fortress

Guillotine Crosses with Ice Pick thank you =]

[TPPK]

They better do something about extended classes, though.

They won't. Knowing Gravity, oh they won't.

most likely they will announce it after 3rd classes got implemented and take another 2 years to devellop them
(people love being in anticipation for new classes so it's a great marketing strategy)

they really should do something about the expanded classes their gears (atm they barely reach 12k hp in WoE )

[Brainstorm]

I wonder if Gravity knows after five years that Flag Graffitti still doesn't work.

No they dont know.

dont forget that its under development and testing right now.

Yet, on the developer interview, most answers were:
"Oh...That...Hm...We will look at it"
"We dont know about that"
"We will be changing that somehow"
"We have no plans on modifying that for now"
Etc

They seem to have no clue of what they are doing to be honest. They are just adding more and more classes with skills to combo with old ones, but barely no mention about stuff broken for ages:
Rogue Skills (as just mentioned above)
Crafting (They say they will add new weapon types, but what about other lv3 that were added on those 5 years?)
Many many 1-1,2-1,2-2 skills that are broken and they never touched it. And now with the level cap increased, who will be able to survive asura or AD with even higher base stats? They will need to fuck on a lot more skills than they "released" few months ago, just boosting underused skills wont do the trick.

[Thormedor]

who will be able to survive asura or AD with even higher base stats?

There are a lot of reduction gears, to decrease the damage. If the base cap is set to 150 you can collect those items much easier. Don't forget that,this is a party/guild based game. Pneuma can block AD, you shouldn't be able to dodge everything.
Also they can lower the damage if it isn't balanced. They never said that they won't change existing skills.

As I mentioned before, I prefer the old system than the new. But I'm glad, they make updates to Ragnarok, and not concentrate all of their energy to Ragnarok II.

I loled badly XD

I agree with Waeyan, that may be something like that. But then again where the hell is arch bishop's poney and warlock's flying broom? I'd love to see a fem warlock ride a broom or a fem archbishop ride a poney 8D So unfair ;_;
MADOLICENCE -> Mad licence? Can we do a wheelie in whatever they are intending on making their mounts? That'd be fun (IMG:http://www.eathena.ws/board/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

And i also agree completly on Brainstorm's post. They never really give a straight answer, they are so freakin oblivious of what they are doing -.-" Geez, I'm pretty sure if they hired some people around here they'd probably get a better job done and WAY faster...
As for crafting, i'm pretty sure they never really intended on adding more to that one, they probably just started and gave up cause it was too troublesome.

*runs to campus* F. I'm late

[Waeyan]

i think Mado is the name of the gear... you need to have that in order to ride that gear..

also mechanic has Self Destruct skill wtf.. i think he can selfdestruct his gear or himself since in the skilltree it shows "self"..

EMERGENCYCOOL when the gear has overheated o.O

STEALTHFIELD <-- i kinda like this.. something like it hides your partymates in that area where stealth field is casted.

REPAIR <-- probably when you self descruct...

[Smack-Talking Pi...]

Shura's skills seem to do more damage/effect based on enemy's inventory weight

No. Just no.

There must have been a typo. This is plainly a gimmick, and gimmicks are filed under the "taekwon" class. It's all right, man.

AS FOR EXTENDED CLASSES: Extended classes are a cleverly hidden message from Gravity. After spending years neglecting food, drink, and sleep, I have finally translated it. The message is as follows:

DEAR CONSUMERS WE ARE WORKING VERY HARD AND WE HAVE RELEASED THESE TWO CLASSES TO PROVE IT I MEAN WOW ARENT THEY COOL NINJAS AND GUNS HELLZ YEAH

Not content with the awful grammar and caps lock, I delved deeper:

Right, that should keep 'em quiet for a while.

This explains why they never did anything with them after they were released. Those wily little fellows kept it a secret from us all this time. Shocking!

For now, we can only speculate what gimmicks will be present in the 3-2 classes. I'm betting my left arm that generics will be able to summon swarms of magical pixies to do damage on their enemy based on what they had for breakfeast, and I know for a fact that Royal Guards will be forced to eschew the tired shields that made up the majority of their old skill trees, relying on these new-fangled spear skills.

- Shadow Chasers "Enhancing skills through graffiti", they mention various effects related to it but it's gibberish - something about movement, magic and SP
- Shadow Chasers will have a "face paint" which will change... "neungryeokchi haeyong", whatever that is. I think they're also saying sprites will be released soon

And added on doddler's wiki today:

* Improved graffiti skills. Ex: Manholes (like in Looney Tunes)
* They can use a skill called Maelstrom which absorbs area of effect magic while draining SP.
* Ability to use facepaint which changes the ability of the player.

Bitch that's what I'm talkin' about! Now that sounds cool once they put it into that perspective. I hope when they say "skills", they mean "skills"
*cough "warlocks will get spells that require multiple warlocks standing together" cough comet cough*

Otherwise, I suddenly am not that psyched. Anyway, now that we know that 3/25 has a 99% chance of being the end of 3-1, when the Mechanic rears its ugly head, I will wait impatiently to see whether they have slaughtered the next generation of rogue by giving us more retarded fur. Why don't they stop concentrating on making females so slutty and make guys look cool, FOR ONCE, instead of flamingly fabulouth/existing with a fashion sense that relays that their grandmas dress them.

A: We do not plan on working on that at the current moment. Please don't hurt my grandma.
