The return of Dungeon Fighter Online (OPEN BETA PT. I STARTS MARCH 24TH!).

[COLOR="#008000"]So I just became curious about looking up DFO, found out it closed, and then found out that it is coming back under Neople. So what exactly is the deal with everything? I realized I missed the closed alpha, so I have to wait, but are they going to be allowing people in once the closed beta occurs, if I'm reading this right? How far ahead are people in the alpha currently?

Dang man, I'd actually be excited to come do this again, now that I found some time in college. Time to jump back on the Paladin bandwagon again, Banquo is coming back.[/COLOR]

So far they have a publicity stunt in facebook that if they reach a certain point of likes they will make the closed beta into an open beta.

Edit: The milestone is 40k likes and they are at 38840, so about 1160 people to like the page to reach it.

We should reach the milestone pretty soon, it looks like someone is buying likes. :x

Down to a few hundred left.

This is the moment! I got the very first moment we successfully got into the Global dev. server!

We're getting one step closer to you!

Yay, they got the Dev. server up!
If you look at the video closely, the area that they log into is called Silver Crown...The new starting area for characters in Metastasis.

POST-SEASON 4 HYPE. There's also still a good bit of Hangul everywhere, so it seems like they're working from some version of the kDnF client?

Confirmation that we ARE getting avatars for participating in CBT. I know it has been assumed that avatars were the surprise for participating, but now it is confirmed.

What are those?

Edit: Wait nvm, i'm guessing they are either a new Slayer/Mage Class or a awakening to one of those.

Or I don't know, the Dark Knight (Destroyer) and the Creator classes?

But I don't want them.

No one does.

Yeah, the reward should be not getting them...

Can anyone tell me about the Destroyer/Creator? Why don't you guys want them?

Because they are cheap, tired rehashes and I think they were made without much thought to balance.

Check a few vids.

Creator is a character that uses WASD to move and uses the mouse for her skills. She's not very good and can be considered a "farming" character for low level dungeons, but they're pretty bad at anything endgame anyways.
Dark Knight has access to most of the Slayer subclass cubes and has the ability to cancel them into one another quickly, with the skills rising in power the later they are in the cancel sequence. They're notorious for doing broken amounts of damage with Stage 6 cancel ISD.

Creator kinda feels like she has no place within DFO, and Dark Knight is a rather lazy rehash of Slayer skills. They both don't have awakenings and can't do otherverse dungeons(Although Dark Knight is crazy strong despite having no chronicle gear). The biggest reason I don't want Dark Knight in DFO is because they're REAL dumb in PvP, especially depending on the incarnation we get. (They've been nerfed HEAVILY in pvp multiple times but they can still do insane amounts of damage past the combo damage cap). They kinda remind me of how I felt about Cygnus Knights when they were first released in GMS.

So I guess they're overpowered? Dark Knight, I can see, it's just reanimated amalgamations of the Slayer's subclasses. Creator, I like that I could use a mouse for fighting, but I take it that just standing there, waving your mouse isn't all that romantic. Also, why the pineapple is the Dark Knight/Destroyer named after an Asura/Gunner subclass?

And there's that, I see. Well, that's a disappointment.

Because the Korean names are different from the NA version. Asura's awakening is not named Dark Knight there for one, and I don't think the Launcher's second awakening Destroyer was made then either. Destroyer might have been the production name or the name NA was going with for what is now the Dark Knight class.
