Human Doubts...?



Erm, all the questions flor together.
1. If yes, or sometimes, move onto #2
If no, the other questions are unneeded.
2. If yes, the others are unneeded.
If 'only at first' or no, move onto #3.
3. Move onto #4 no matter what the answer it.
4. The end o.o

If the answer to #1 is 'Yes' or 'Sometimes', I'm probably going to continue an old giant (Yay I found it ! :thumb: ) and make an Alchemist (Alchemist depends on #2).

Thanks for your help! :]]

    Range tend to lag more on elves then humans, it's just your internet I guess.
  • Chiri wrote on 2010-05-04 22:55
    Range lags badly on elves, it has to do with their shooting animation (and can be fixed with some dll edits, but those are relatively iffy to depend on). It doesn't lag on humans.
    Yep.

    2. Depends if you want to work hard on it.

    4. WM is beneficial no matter what you do. Not an alchemy expert so can't respond to 3. and the life skill part.

    I guess Range = Out ~ :P

    Erm, I don't wanna work hard.

    I might just change to my Giant then, I suppose.

    But I'll wait for more answers.

    What build are you aiming for exactly? And I'm afraid you can't do much in this game w/o working a bit Dx.

    For 3: If you want to have a moble alchemist go for elf. After you rank up range and barrier spikes you can solo like any mission with the walls.
    If your not patient and like to deal out huge chunks of damage go for human for more hp for a kind of tank.

    1. Nope.
    2. Depends. Golem trainers are pretty jacked, but unintelligent x3. The crystals are worth it.
    3. Not sure... Elves can run faster so...? Also no stats are needed for alchemy damage. Pure alchemy mastery ranks. So Elves.
    4. WM, Production, Refining+Weaving for the dex and balance? Combat mastery for HP.

    For the alchemist? Well, pure alchemy and highest damage and survivability.

    1.Oh I see. Hmm, I'm still kinda X-ing out that idea, cause normal lag, and then range lag, agh.
    2. xP I needa see how hard it is to get them again.
    3. I guess Elves. :P
    4. I see, not too bad. xD!

    I guess I'm making an Alchemist, a lot for the heck of it. xD!!

    Yeah I think Mobile - Awesome. But why range?

    So now, I quit my human, and I now have an elf and a giant. xD!!

    I love arguing anti elf but I can't type much with this screen keyboard.




    Some other time.

    -Waits- o.o
    And why do you have an on screen keyboard?

    Oh well - Waits -
    I kinda hate elves for their advantage and the fact that nexon loves them, but Giants can win in PvP, if they're fast enough.

    The best part about elves - .3x faster than humans. o.o

    If you're getting lag with range AND melee then that's gonna be an internet problem. xD

    Don't forget to re-add me with whatever you decide to go with though. :p

    [QUOTE=Raj;28368]

    1. Does Range Lag on Humans?
      Not at all compared to elves.
      AR is very smooth when the server is stable.

    2. Is Alchemy hard to do?
      Depends what skills you are training.
      Golem, Life Drain, are hard skills to train.
      Water Cannon, Barrier Spikes are relatively easy to train.

    3. Alchemy: Elf vs Human
      Elves get more compensation for their missing attributes.
      A golem to melee for them and barrier spikes to make up for their low aim speed as well as low survivability.

    4. What non-Alchemy skills are benificial to an Alchemist?
      Nothing else.
      Saturday helps.


      Elves are good at ranged but a human can do perfectly fine and also has a much better melee power (melee is far more useful than range).
      Giants are good at melee but not so far as to overshadow humans, they lack ranged power meaning you'll be very in-versatile and unable to do range mini games like rafting and hot air balloon.

      Elves are fast but other races solo faster.
      Don't make a decision based on PVP play, seriously.
