I'm being shamed for different characters.

Alright, I'm just gonna put this out there because I don't know what to do anymore.

Everyone in my guild always shames me because I have more than one character..
They're like "Dude, you have like a million characters... LOL." Is that even a bad thing? Sometimes it's hard to play on just one class because a person gets bored and it's great to raise a set of characters and feel good about it.

I don't know sometimes, I actually agree with them but I don't at the same time.

This is how it works with me:
"Oh I love my Aran..I love pirates, but I really like Resistance Battle Mages and Mechanics, but..but I should make a KoC."

I always feel like this..and I think it's because I'm not that successful in the game overall quite honestly.
I believe that if I was more rich and had better items, I would not be so "un-attached" to classes, and I would focus more on one thing.


Okay, so this is what I have so far:

Aran In Misery - Lv. 74

Outlaw - Lv. 75

Battle Mage [3rd Job] - Lv. 90

Mechanic [3rd Job] - Lv. 72


But yeah..
I hate thinking about this..I don't know what I should focus on, or if it would be a bad thing making more characters..
I just don't know anymore. People always pick on me for this. ;~;

To be honest, if I were to make another character, it would be a Cygnus Knight or a Buccaneer. I never really got into making one, and would it be smart to do so? UA's are coming soon as well. o:
Either a Dawn Warrior, Wind Archer, or Thunder Breaker.

But with Thunder Breakers, would it be better to make a Bucc, or Thunder Breaker?
[Basically, if I were to make another character, should it be a KoC, or a Bucc? Or..both?]


Share your views on this, and thanks. c:

Sounds more like they're teasing you rather than shaming you.

In my case, I have (I'll use GMS names)...

Lv127 Aran
Lv100 Dual Blade
Lv81 Outlaw
Lv81 Chief Bandit
Lv78 Evan
Lv73 Chief Bandit (STR)
Lv63 Cleric
Lv56 Page
Lv40 Blaze Wizard

+ Lots of Lv3x characters which I gave up on.

Currently training a Dawn Warrior (Lv21).

So...yeah, I'm the same way. XD

Make a Cygnus, not for the UA since that is a rather lolworthy thing in the end, but for the 24 att boost it will bring for your account. Thunder Breakers are a nifty pick and will be better and faster than a brawler for the entire 120 level life spawn.
Also, for the love of Jebus, do not center your text like that, it's an eyesore and plain wrong. EDIT: that goes for Hanabira.Kage too!

@Hanabira.Kage: Hey, LOL we have the same typing style! XD.

Also, this made me feel much better..ahah..n_n.
Sometimes, I feel more attached to my Aran than anything.
I remember the day I made him when Arans came in late 2009.

@Carrion: B-But I like typing this way. ;A;
And what do you mean by the 24 att boost? o:

I've been using this font and alignment ever since I made an account (with the same name) on the Asiasoft Forums. o.o

Blessing of Empress gives 24 WA/MA at max (Lv24). This can be obtained by having a Lv120 CK.

@Hanabira:

So..it's like Blessing of the Fairy? It goes on all characters? 8D..

And what do you mean by the 24 att boost? o:

Blessing of the fairy currently give you 1 point per every 10 levels on your highest character right? For me I get 18 points in it from my NL to the rest of my account, and the NL gets 12 points from my 120 Cygnus. After next patch Cygnus characters get a better blessing, they get 1 point per 5 levels instead. A level 120 Cygnus will then give you a better blessing than a level 200 adventurer. 24 attack versus 20 for astronomicaly less invested time. The Cygnus itself would still get the normal blessing from the highest character on the account though. The new blessing does not stack with BoF.
And even if you do like to type like that, it is still wrong. xP

Oh, okay. I feel like making a Cygnus Knight now.
I just thought Buccs would be fun? I don't know honestly..

Okay so here's the deal. I'm going with making a KoC but Wind Archer, Dawn Warrior, or Thunder Breaker?
I also like Buccs a lot. :x

And honestly, is it really that bad to have that many characters? The ones that I listed in the first post.

I don't think it's bad to have a lot of characters (of course, I have pretty much every 2nd job out there or higher)... you should play the game the way it's fun for you. Right now I mostly like playing my Dark Knight, so I do.

I always feel like this..and I think it's because I'm not that successful in the game overall quite honestly.

Question: How can you be successfull in a game? If it does what it's supposed to do. What's a game supposed to do? Entertain/relax you.
Are you having fun while playing your characters? Then congrats, you are successfull in MS

Also, 4 chars isn't that bad. I Have 8 (low lvl mechanic and BaM not listed in my sig).

I don't think there's anything wrong with having multiple characters. I'm quite the bandwagon-er myself.

I just feel bad for my buddies who constantly have to add a new "Bacon" to their buddy lists.

It's only bad if you have every character in the same guild (and are therefore wasting space) OR if you make a new character every month and don't actually play any of them (I'M LOOKING AT YOU KAWJI, IF YOU COME IN THIS THREAD AND SEE THIS POST >:o)

I only have two characters in my guild. o:

Also @Bacon:
I don't know if Pirate Adventurers are still considered bandwagon, to be honest, but that doesn't matter to me. As long as I'm having fun.


ALSO EVERYONE!

Okay so tell me.
Knight of Cygnus: Wind Archer / Dawn Warrior / Thunder Breaker

Should I also make a Bucc?

(Side-note: I never made any type of Archer. I tried Wild Hunter and hated the gameplay, and deleted it. That is all. I do have a Warrior-base (Aran), but I don't have any knuckle-based pirates so...)

My Dual Blade and Evan are in the same guild, and my Aran's in another guild within the same Alliance. ._.

That's why you create a mule guild and alliance with them.

Exactly. My guild has a mule guild to dump non-focused-on characters so we have space for others, etc.
And they're alliances too!
I just decided to pick my Mechanic and Outlaw to stay in the guild.

@Everyone: Any suggestions at my post before this one?

Honestly, just make whatever you feel like making. If you're making a KoC solely for the 24 attack buff, then I suggest a Dawn Warrior because they level outrageously fast and have crazy damage. Otherwise, just pick something that sounds interesting and give it a shot. If you like it, continue it. If you don't, start another character.

ThunderBreaker / Striker, just because they're fun and I have one already at max level. :3
And yes, a Bucc is also very fun. ^_^

I can't choose between those two.. D:

I think I might go for a Dawn Warrior..
And then make a Bucc.

@Bacon: Yeah, I love Dawns because of the theme, mainly. I just like their attacks and what not. LOL!

I tend to have multiple characters because it helps me to understand the strengths and weaknesses of them, how they can fit with other groups and how to adapt. As of right now I have:

170 NL (main)
147 Bishop
126 DrK
111 Wind Archer
80 Aran
70 Thunder Breaker and Wild Hunter
66 Evan
50 Axe fighter
and a lvl 30 Mechanic
