Solo 4 s3 raids twice. (braha too ugly to touch) Then log off because I got all the dice already--3 hours have passed.

Not willingly...I'd love to join raid trains! But it kinda sucks when it takes 60 seconds to load in. I've been kicked so much and I honestly can't blame em.
I should do s1. People say it's faster. But after I literally fell asleep halfway through a round I swore it off.

2 patches ago: 30 fps in town. 15 fps in battle. 15 fps returning to town.

1 patch ago: 30 fps in town. 10 fps in battle. 15 fps returning to town.
Learned to play without UI. Appears to be 20+fps without UI. I can't tell because the number disappears.

Today: 30 fps in town. 1 fps in battle. 1 fps returning to town.
Boat launches before I load in 100% of time. Black screen for 60 seconds returning to town.
Can still run things without UI, but I kinda need the UI to start a battle.

So yes, it's been getting worse for a while. There must be horribly inefficient invisible layers in Battle UI that don't free their memory when they should.

(shrug} If Nexon's intention is to make me upgrade my computer, it's not working. No other game in my library behaves like this, so I'll go play one of those instead.

If RNG is ever removed from enhancing and enchanting people will build fully capped builds overnight.
That is how much money and resources people have saved.

I mean, what else is left to declare as a personal goal? Ein Lacher?

I get that gearing is disheartening. I support removing RNG from enhancing up to +10 and enchanting up to r9 scrolls. That would give people hope.
I think the enhancing thing is on the way?

1: When we say "More skillfully demanding" it's a marginal comparison, especially between these two chars. The gulf between other chars is wider. There are great players of both classes. Lann is older so there are a few more supermaxxed Lanns.

2: Hurk has much more things going for him than Lann. Lann can get winded from OOStamina. Hurk...can't. Hurk has parry and high damage sp skills. Lann has...glides...which come up on crits (inconsistent). Blocks nullify the hitbox of the swing so that you aren't hit by the rest of the attack (see Thor's walk, which lasts 2 whole seconds) while slip dash gets shafted because it doesn't even go through the boss. I could go on, but you get the point: there are good things about both classes.

If you're new and wondering why your lvl<60 Hurk is getting shafted, I assure you it gets better. Eventually you hit the raiding life and then getting hit doesn't mean anything anymore because the average party carries in total 20 feathers 7 party feathers 1000 merc pots 50 graces and an Evie.

Such a list can't be created. Think about what you're asking:

You're asking me, a 3rd party, to determine beforehand w/ my psychic powers:
1: How much your buyer is willing to pay for your rare item X
2: How much you are willing to take for X
3: Which one of you barters harder: what number will you two agree on
For any rare item X. Really now? When I'm on for an embarassing number of hours per day and see maybe 3~4 transactions go down when it's active?

Nope. Pie-in-the-sky idealist dreams. People vary wildly. Times vary wildly. No one I know would put in the man-hours to update...besides one guy who swore off the forums. I have, over vindi history, seen Sig ES at 1mil, 2mil, 8mil, and free.
(That last one may have been some rich person who ran out of cares.)

Maybe someone privy to more traffic than me could do it. I'm a loner. I bet Guilds trade items internally all the time.
I suggest you join a Guild and ask them. Heck go buy it from them. Heck go farm it with them. Heck go random raid with them, watch it drop, and have it awarded it to you for free bc you were whining about it for the last 3 months.

Man I miss my old guild.

{cough} Go have fun. Don't spend your vindi time worrying about whether you're being cheated up or down 10mil. I feel equally bankrupt at 10mil and 20mil, and equally rich at 100mil and 150mil. After all, all us rich people do is bankstand anyways.
