"Your current service account doesn't allow anymore characters on this world"

>_>. First character ever created just not allowed I guess.

Well I think devs are basically manually locking popular stuff until the unpopular stuff gets to a somewhat more even kneel. It's been ~3.5 hours waiting, not sure if I want to continue.

wait if transfer are free with launch, can't me and AP just transfer to Gilmagesh if we buy the game?

ActionDan · Post Post #191 (isolation #9) » Thu Aug 22, 2013 5:09 pm

ah ok. Well I guess I'll buy it probably sometime soon. before it goes live and switch when it opens.

I'm in a chess tournament atm so I really can't do much for the next few days, since I don't have my computer with me

I have heard it's best to do the one in your starting city. I don't know why.

I really hate that the ferry from Eastern Nostea ---> Eastern Nostea costs 100. que le fuck.

everytime my internet dies, and it died for an hour with the main computer directly connected to the router still without access, I feel like I betray the guildies doing the dungeon with me.

I now feel the pressure to be better than your last DD! eeeeeek.

I dunno the only tricky part in the Titan fight looks to be dodging weight of the land. dodging landslide + bombs are pretty easy.

How does gear progression work?

Are there dungeons/raids as you level? What about at endgame?

What kind of innovations make this stand out from WoW? I read something about player housing -- how does that work?

Well at endgame a few lvl 50 (the lvl cap) dungeons unlock: Castrum Meridianum (required for story), The Praetorium (required for story), The Wanderer's Palace, Amdapor Keep, and finally, The Binding Coil of Bahamut. People at end game will farm WP/AK for 'tomes' which will allow you to buy better gear. Coil consists of 5 'turns' each is like a boss fight basically, and that drops 2 pieces of better-than-tome-gear per turn (besides turn 3).

people farm AK/WP to get tomes to buy stuff for alt jobs, which you'd want to level by end-game to procure cross-class abilities. There are also tons of crafting classes that people spend time on to make money/make gear.

Before you hit 50, there are plenty of fun dungeons to participant in that'll drop useful loot as you level. levels for these are 15,16,17,20,24,28,32,35,38,41,44,47.

I think maybe there is a benchmark thing that is still around wherein you can create a character and see some nice graphics... but no play.
