I am just a messenger. America as a whole will remember the decision made today. And for that, the entire world will either rejoice... or what many believe... will burn.

Confused beta question.

I'm physical level 11 and gladiator rank 10. (That's it.)

Why can I wear armor that says it's for rank 14? Or even 20? And why can I wear armor for classes I've never even used?

Ugh, I currently have a 512 MB GTS 250 card.
I'd love to upgrade to say a GTX 440, but that would be rather pointless upgrade, and in all probability I would get significantly better results putting two of the same cards in SLI.

I think it works like Armor Proficiencies/Specializations. Just because you can equip a piece of armor, doesn't mean you can use it effectively.

I think someone mentioned earlier that a gear with superior stats ended up being worse on their Lancer than something designed for the Lancer class. I like to think of it like Level-Sync gear on acid.

I think there are also gears that have "requirements."

True...ish.

That's the only example (with the other rings), and it updates every 15 levels, as opposed to every level, like in XIV.

A bit weak of an example, but I tried it out:
Physical Level: 14
Marauder Rank: 6

Going to use Hempen Doublet (BSM, ARM, GLD, ALC, MIN, BTN)
Optimal Rank: 6
Defense: 26
M. Defense: 22
Evasion: 21
Resilience: 14

Now Stats before equiping it:
Defense: 64
Evasion: 82
M. Defense: 61

After:
Defense: 80
Evasion: 95
M. Defense: 75



Wish I had more to try out, but I'll need to log on the other character (which will be laaater).

I'm way too addicted to RECETTEAR to search for a better example(assuming one exists) right now. Turns out I'm being a lot less shrewd than I thought I'd be.

Was thinking of trying out the ones with +base stats on them (had one with piety/vit on it).
Hope someone can find one better.

And thanks Tousou, now I've got something to play now lol.

So far the game feels like it should be $10-15 instead of $20. Otherwise, I'm enjoying the light-hearted nature. Definitely better than the Spectral Force game my younger brother convinced me to get.

Question:

Is the beta responding (performance-wise) to SLI or Crossfire?
Is there likelihood it will be supported with the final release?
SLI gtx460 x2 and i7 3.06
I don't dc at all <_<

Part Bludgeon part Slashing? Holy freaking awesome.

Slip, do you happen to know about how difficult it is to get 5000 guild points? Somewhat tempted to buy smelting and start making shittons of nuggets on my own.
No clue.. From what I've read you can only start getting the marks once you are able to do the level 20 crafting leves, I'm not able to do those, so no clue how many points you get for each leve..

I'd imagine it wouldn't be too hard.. I know SE can be mean, but there is a ***ton of books to get for each craft, it'd take forever (years?) to get all the books for any particular craft if you only got a couple marks for each leve. Knowing SE, it'd probably take like 10+ successful crafting leves to get 5k marks, which would mean a minimum of like 2days IRL to get the points.

For disciples of war and magic, I think you get about 2000 guild marks for one leve. The number goes up a bit if you increase the difficulty too.

The problem is that it's completely random whether or not marks will show up as a reward each cycle.

For names to be added to the list, send me a PM. I'm very busy at work today so I will need to add them this afternoon. I'll also be creating a database for it instead of just listing it on the page (so I can update it with the web broswer instead of having to edit the page every time).

Also, the forum was created last night, but I haven't had a chance to get in and modify it.

Dark Wizard got some guild marks from a leve today, he said he got like 2.4k marks for one leve.

The only place to get new gear is from leves or crafters. Shops don't sell new weapons or gear. (well they sell the weathered weapons for other jobs, but that's it, there's also a couple that sell shields and I think I saw a single helmet for ridiculous prices.. something like 45k-200k)
