Raised AP Cap? (question mostly for people who play heroes)

  Quote from Whyrainfalls;265075:

  Anyway, I was thinking about the reasons why they would increase the cap, and pretty much general reasons "people want to hold more and not log onto alts every 3 days"
  
  But if there were ever a dungeon that gave 100AP or more, they would HAVE to change the AP cap.
  
  So my question is: Are there any battles that give 100AP or more?

  I don't even think any of the missions through level 60 give more than 50 last I checked. Don't know about the new boat. The only one that can go above that so far is apparently this endless dungeon. I was always under the assumption the cap was raised to 1000 to accommodate transformations and expensive skills.

  Wait, is that "Yes" a response to the question "Are there any battles that give 100AP or more?" or... what.
  
  Also, do you know why Korean players tend to have a couple hundred AP just sitting around instead of pumping them into skills directly?

  There's two reasons for this. First, some skills are REALLY expensive and they're saving up to rank those skills in one go. Secondly, they want points for transformations. There's no need to press the "+max" button if it isn't going to level the skill.

  First, Papa is it true that you've played/currently play Korean Vindictus? Also, I wonder if anyone else on Mabination is an authority on Korean Vindictus.

  I don't know if I count or how accurate I'll be.

  Have any skill caps been raised in Korean Vindictus compared to what we have right now in Ep4?

  Yes.
  
  

  Quote from Phoenix~Lament;265248:

  Are there any new "features" unlocked, like Rank 9 Standing Endurance's Tech Roll or Rank 9 Eagle Talon's Magic Mine? I saw an Evie in a Korean video with a golden yellow Eagle Talon, do you know what that is? Is it an enchantment?

  That is just a color thing. US has blue.
  
  

  Quote from Phoenix~Lament;265248:

  Are dailies by boat? They seem to be with the release of Boat 4, which has two dungeons but only one daily for the entire boat - does this mean that with Hilder Forest Ruins, we won't get a new daily because it shares a boat with Ainle?

  Not sure, they could be episode related.
  
  Some stuff.

  Didn't you mean white? Blue is for golems.

  ^ Are you talking about Fire golems?

  
  Nope, in the Korean version the glue thing that sticks the golem together is gold instead of blue which kind of sucks because gold looks wayyy better.

  Blue Golem right there. Hoarfrost Depths, meaning KR server.

  Sometimes I lie.
  But anyways, one possibility is that the golems start off gold and then turn blue in the KR servers.
  Or I just hallucinated and gold golems never existed.

  Ninmenka, for the skill rank uncaps what skills - anything notable? Like of course with a raised level cap we'll get Rank 6 smash mastery, critical hit, etc, but that's already expected. Anything unexpected, like how bloody thread and blink and firebolt and hammer smashes are all capped at A right now, and maybe we'll get bonus effects at Rank 9 or something?
  
  Also pretty much related would be the gold golem. If Golem Mastery is uncapped to 9 or higher it would make sense for the color to continue changing, into perhaps Gold? Or what, dunno.

  Golem mastery does not affect the colour or size of the golem afaik. I got Summon Golem to A, it got bigger gradually and turned blue and my friend got rank A of both and no sign of increase in size or change in colour.

  From my observations, rank A is a pure blue. Lower ranks are greener, with rank F being the greenest.

  That's your Create Golem rank though. Golem mastery doesn't affect your golem's appearance.

  Yes. The event/endless dungeon gives increasing EXP/AP as you go further and further in.

  So which is it then?
• Ninmenka wrote on 2010-12-29 00:53
  I should have been more clear and said regular missions have yet to go passed 50. I haven't seen any of these event missions or the endless dungeon. They are real though.
• Kueh wrote on 2010-12-29 01:15
  Ah, I see.
  
  I've never even heard of endless dungeon till this thread. Is there a limit to how long you can go? Or is it infinite as long as you survive?

  Starts at lv23. You get different gimmick rooms, such as target practice, boss rushes, playing soccer with bosses, bla bla. And shadow clones of player models. Aka You vs. Lann/Lann/Fio/Evie(always 4 at random).
  
  As you progress, the bosses go up by boats, the shadow clones level up, gain new armor and weapons, and new SKILLS, and fantastic AI. AI as in, Lann clones doing Perfect Slip Dashes through my Gliding Furies/Lightnings.
  
  I only got to lv4x clones last time, as I was 45ish myself. Mama came along with me but... lol. She got demolished too.
• Phoenix~Lament wrote on 2010-12-29 02:05
  Wow, clones, boss rushes, playing soccer? Good AI?
  
  I want that so badly, sounds so fun n___n
  
  Btw, Ninmenka, if you happen to play Scythe Evie or have a fair amount of Scythe Evie experience regarding Physical Critical Hit in Boats 5 and on would you like to join our discussion in the Scythe Evie Guide Thread? It starts here.

  :blood: Sounds like my kind of dungeon! I can imagine the screams from my party already. <3! Thanks for telling us about this, I can say.. I am looking forward to this very very much.

  Stay away from Staff Evie Magic Arrows please. They 2hko me from full, while wearing Lagho. D:
  
  Lagho broken = 1hko.
