Aura Kingdom - Open Beta Jan. 6th 5:30PST!

I'm thinking about uninstalling. Point and clicks aren't really for me >_>.

I'm not even playing this as point and click, I'm using wasd and tab at this point...

Tab is useful, but not very precise. It seems to just start off at a random target and cycle through them from there. Well, at least it only seems to pick stuff in view.

So far, nothing has hit me/my eidolon/partymates hard enough that just keeping Ballad up wasn't more than enough healing, so mostly I'm feeling kinda annoyed with my Bard.
Does stuff get actually challenging later on? Just hit 30.

In Gydaie Glen (Cactakara's instance) Hell Mode, Noripan's moving(!) bombs deal somewhere in the region of 10k damage to anyone in range, which will kill people really quickly. I've seen plenty of people dying even when the Bard has a full stack of Ballad up. I even had the Bard die on me once in CBT because a bomb blew up in his face, leaving me to have to toss my crappy heals (I subbed Bard) around while someone went and ressed him.

Meanwhile, Fia from the same instance can summon a bunch of green tornado-ish things that deal a couple hundred damage multiple times a second. Keep standing in that, and nothing will save you. Your job here as the Bard is simply not to get killed yourself, because there's nothing you can do if some idiot just stands there.

Is Sanguine Blade enough to make healing on guard doable for soloing content (including party/hell instances 20+ levels above the instance), or do I really need to sub bard to make that doable. I'm speccing SPD and HP, that's right isn't it?

I know the gear scaling becomes absurd soonish, I knew a 69 tank class on EE with top enchanted gear who could solo RAIDS ~15 levels under him.

oh and, leveling multiple characters seems viable for more than just the achievement progress being account based; fame quests are doable 5 times on each character per day, more chances at them rate loots. I've seen at least 2 people on Siren so far with the bunny ears from the rice cake daily, one was Mysterious quality at that.

I can't say because I don't have a high-leveled Guardian, but I doubt it since combo skills have a 2 min cooldown. Subbing Duelist gives you access to Balisong (not a lifesteal; it heals a specific amount based on your level) though, so I guess it's not all that bad.

SPD/HP and SPD/DEF both work.

One of the Aeria's games is being DDOS'd, and it causes troubles for all other games and their log-ins and servers, including Aura Kingdom.
In the meanwhile, a shitstorm broke loose in the Aura Kingdom forum shoutbox, and Aura KingDOWN is the pun of the day.

Damn virgins and their DDoS attacks....-_-can't do anything better, I mean really on a free mmorpg.

Well, that explains last night's lag...

Just started playing this. IGN is Arthalius, would love an invite to the guild

Would it be better to main sorc and sub wizard or main wizard and sub sorc?

It takes over an hour for me to even get in game because its always verifying my stupid ass account holy pineapple.....
Edit: cant play at all gg fuk u aeria games

I afked, came back and Merrillee was covering the screen, dancing back and forth

Aeria tier launch; mostly offline, login issues everywhere, DDoSing, characters/guilds/eidolons/items randomly going missing, long ass SCs.

Seriously, what's with all the DDoS attacks lately?

And the forums are getting spammed with gold selling site URLs.

Bored people; DDoSing in general isn't really that hard, just takes a lot of bored people, and there are a lot of bored people out there.
Got Guardian to 44, decided to do Bard anyway, pretty nice but weapon repair costs are really goddamn high.

... is it bad that I've been forgetting to repair my weapons? Or maybe I just haven't needed to yet? I'm lv 43 :\

Keep running instances till they're maxed out a few times and your dura will plummet. Basically, you're around the point where you'll have to repair quite a bit. Guardians just have it worse since they tank.

I once caught myself (in CB) with like 8 dura remaining in GG, right before Kayel. It dropped to 5 pretty damn quickly, so I had to excuse myself for the rest of the fight (I had my Fire Sprite fight for me though).

EDIT: Looks like the servers are down for maintenance atm. Damn, I don't even get to play all that often...why do the servers always go down when I can?

EDIT2: Servers are up. Just got to Demarach, and the bulletin board's quest is interesting. It's not simply "run in and kill everything".

How is weapon repair high? Is it different for each class or something? I never had a problem, I'm a slinger and I think I have have repair my weapons maybe 4 times and I'm level 50 now but didn't even play yesterday and might not today either.

I got pretty lucky somehow, I got the level 50 gold coloured gun first try lol then got the cannon and sold for 5 gold. If you wanna make a quick 45 gold you can easily go do a few free offers and 1k AP in less than 20mins, buy the 10 slot back-pack and throw it in the action house. really you could make 100 gold easily, the free offers arent like nexon and almost useless, they are actually better and can make a lot of gold early for you.

Dura reduces based on number of hits you take/give. Tanks have low damage and get hit a ton, so they lose a lot of dura.
