On-Topic: Trucking through level 30-32... So far, it's been kind of tough o.o; But I heard that at level 32 leveling gets much easier so there's that to look forward to! \o/ And of course Halfmoon Slash!
Not sure if I should get the Cerberus Sword or the Ancient from Honest Ed's Shop...
Nope. The only things in which enhancements/potential disappears is when you're trying to craft something into a completely different item, not just adding a suffix. So far, there are only two instances in which that will happen:
1: Crafting technique accessories (which is why people only use junk accessories like Knightly, Stunning, etc. rather than Wise, Vital, Windswept)
2: Crafting SDN Unique gear into GDN Unique gear (something we don't have yet)
And yeah, leveling as a Swordsman is really tough, the devs nerfed their early PvE damage output quite a bit about half a year ago. They're a late bloomer class now, and by that I mean Level 60 cap.
Even tougher now that the equip drop tables in standard dungeons have been utterly neutered. There's still no word on whether or not this drop table change was even intentional. All notes indicate that only white-rank equipment (Normal) were supposed to be removed, not green-rank (Magic) equips along with onyx drop rates being lowered to almost non-existent...
