    A Statement on Our Separation From AC

    When I say “our”, I simply me myself and the friends I brought into AC. There is no drama. There is no major guild split. As some of you may have noticed, I talk a lot of trash. So do some of the people I’m bringing into this game. Between our trash talk and murderous ways, I do not think my...

    Archery

    Veela footfighters are great. I separate them because they're more capable of not taking fights they don't want, pressing fights they do want, and tactical maneuvers than any other pre-cav race. Some of the maneuvers I talk about would either not be possible or be significantly harder using...

    Archery

    I can hit for 20s too. 20s aren't very impressive especially as infrequently as you will get them if your opponent knows how to move. Archery MAY be OP when we get magic in. If spells take long enough to cast I can certainly see them countering mages very hard. Right now in the melee meta it...

    Standing with the tribes - how to increase?

    I think the other factions don't really exist in-game in a meaningful way so they probably can't have their standing raised/lowered. When I say "in a meaningful way" what I mean is like... the are Anam Sith grocers but not guards. So your standing with them really means nothing currently. I'm...

    Continuously updated list of guild location claims

    I'm aware of its history as a haven for gankers. That is not what we intend to allow it to become in MO2. Or more, it likely still will be a red haven but many of those reds will be wearing AC tags and therefore actually protectors of Fabernuum.

    Noobs Please Listen

    We do, and people who see it your way can adhere to your advice. I think most newbs will have their experience ruined by doing so though. Rerolls aren't fun.

    Noobs Please Listen

    Min-max applies to all aspects of the game. If you make a middling dex character, my character which is 5 movespeed off max, has max strength and high health for a veela etc. will chase you down and ruin your day. Your character build should be thought out and well-optimized because this is a...

    Archery

    Has heavy armor. Your damage is pretty damn trash against people in full steel. It also has good footwork which I'd argue is currently TOO strong and makes it nearly impossible to hit people who do it well if they aren't prettymuch right in your face. It also has shields and positioning...

    Which build is best for archer/mage

    Yeah the Alvarin buffs may help make it viable. There are a couple major advantages I can think of. One being mage/archer would seem to have a major upper hand in fights against pure mages as they could get off some very solid hits whenever their opponent goes to charge a spell. With Sheevra...

    Archery

    Foot fighter stats make great archer stats actually. Literally the only difference attribute wise is that size does nothing but more HP for an archer. So yeah, like you said, just a few points in archery and they can viably use a bow. Like they might not be as many points deep into it as a Veela...

    Two Important Suggestions for Haven Before Release

    I'll put it this way. If we get Haven and it's a pure cut and paste of MO1. Neither of us are going to be happy. But my reaction is going to "Implement timers to rush newbs through their tutorial and implement import restrictions so they can't take their donkey and newb sword with them." It's...

    Two Important Suggestions for Haven Before Release

    The evidence for that assumption is getting thinner, but it's a rather necessary one to make as otherwise, any discussion about the future of this game is pointless. MO2 as an MO1 cut and paste with shinier graphics and a bigger map has no future. So minimizing the damage of implementing the...

    Archery

    Feel free to buy a one gold bow and peg people with it, if you think that's all it takes to auto-win fights. If nothing else, getting eaten alive by other archers will show you the error of your ways. But there is a reason archery focused characters are so rare right now, and it's not because...

    Archery

    You're completely discounting the fact that: A. Parrying does take skill no matter what people say. You can't parry 100% of attacks without practice. B. You could have just run, or gone after the archer. Kiting doesn't kill people if you never get relief to get off shots. Sometimes though in a...

    Archery

    Dude. You do realize this is a game where if I'm out riding with 30 of my closest friends and I see 2 guys with guild tags I don't like I'm going to ride away with two sets of free gear right? This is an Open World PvP MMO with mounts, archers, pets and magic. Not a fencing MOBA. I don't really...

    Two Important Suggestions for Haven Before Release

    Yeah, tutors were a symptom of MO1s bad leveling system which has begun to carry over into MO2 already. They're completely unnecessary in a better system.

    Archery

    It is INCREDIBLY hard to regularly land shots on someone you aren't practically in melee range with if their footwork is good. I can get a lot of shots into some players at medium/long range. But it's because their footwork is atrocious. If you find yourself getting countered by ranged a lot in...

    Two Important Suggestions for Haven Before Release

    If Haven needs a timer to inspire people to leave, the resources there are too valuable and the content quantity too great. Newbs should be able to take the stuff they earn in the tutorial with them, and have as long as they want to complete it. That being said, if they cut and paste that crap...

    Idea for an Alvarian Claidgift (Bloodmagic)

    I kind of hope we have some abilities in the game tied to skills or other factors as opposed to race. If this were implemented I hope that's how it would be implemented.
