Punch Wrote:I have questions..

The Jumpstart event.. assuming we already have a 70+ character, can we create our Dual Blades instantly after the patch? Or we have to wait until event ends?

And also..

If I create my Ultimate Adventurer after the patch, does it qualify for the Boom-up Event?

Thanks.

SaptaZapta Wrote:Why not? Create an Evan, a Cygnus, and a DB (I assume you meant mask, not bandana?), and level them all to 80, then transfer the items to the character you want to have them (must be on the same account).

EndlessAxis Wrote:was there an extraction done on the 10 30 and 50 boxes? if that is even possible.

Punch Wrote:Only the mask (I believe) is really worth it..

Are the rings worth it? Or are the evolving rings sooo much better?

SaptaZapta Wrote:You have four rings slots, and only two evolving rings can be worn simultaneously, so there's no contradiction.

The Dark Angelic Blessing ring is better, but it remains to be seen just how easy they will be to craft and how much they will cost. Personally I prefer a bird in the hand, so if you don't have either Lilin, Resistance, or Adventurer Ring, might as well get one. (Just one, they are all mutually exclusive).
