Some punk is harrasing me... he was like pl get out of this channel its my lvl place etc etc, he was the person who broke the straw as 3 other people had done it to me.. so i defamed him. He deserved it, with a name like ProArchMage... well now hes hunting me down.. so i may need many fames... roffles
I enjoyed the banter with beyond earlier gink and Jemm, things like that, although somewhat fustrating give added funn to the game <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Oh and there is some concern that the 3rd lvl skills are somewhat lacking in awe and splendor. Can i just say, there is a 4th job planned for that, and if Resurection for bisho p (preist) doesnt sound nice, i dont know what does! Also remember that those pics of the 3rd job skills are still images... The ingame actuality is very different and much cooler. They are deffinaely worth it : )
Anyone need any thing for quests/ equipment desperately? Msg me ingame Happy Mapeling!
LOL fame doesn't really do much yet. Just don't get into stuff like 'zomg trade famez0rs' or anything that involves faming <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
On the contrary. Firstly you need 100 fame to make a guild (9will be implemented soon)
Secondly all exuipment labled dark requires 20 fame to wear, thirdly some quests require you to have a certain ammount of fame to start and complete <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
So yes fame is important <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
ProArchMage? wasn't that the guy we had the fame war with in beta because he was a jerk? o.O
As for me being cleric, don't get too carried away! I can't do much at 30 with only 1 level in heal XD I'll need to be around level 35 or something to keep us alive :3
<b>edit:</b> for extra irony points; beyond, who'd originally started off arguing with me eventually became quite friendly and actually nice. He even helped me reach level 14 with a bit of leeching :D

A warrior (and anyone who isn't a mage) gets 20 levels of 3 sp +1 for the job advance = 61 skill points in the first job. Somehow his recommended build ended up with 81.
I went with 20 Power Strike/10 Slash Blast/13 Iron body this time around. Iron Body is great at lower levels, when 10 hp per hit is a lot, but I'm not sure it's the best path to take. I'd probably have been a bit happier having 20 Slash Blast instead, it'd make things a bit faster, although levelling with Power Strike alone can also be quite effective. Depends mostly on the map.
If I were you I'd probably max both attacking skills and leave iron body alone. You'll be poorer for a while earlier (more hp pots) but probably better off in the long run.
P.S. Everyone who screenshotted that comment out of context is going to <b>die</b>
[Edit]: But DEFINITELY max out hp increase as soon as possible. You'll be pretty gimped later on if you don't.
Ok, I made an account, and even downloaded the client. You may or may not see my mage ingame. If I do make one, I'll post my name. I can feel this game sucking my soul back in already and I only just now installed it.
edit: this is dumb, I can login on the website, but not in the game. it keeps saying it's not a registered ID. And yes I did verify my account.
That's sort of strange. Check that you haven't downloaded the Beta client. The Beta site and the official site look REALLY similar so it's easy to mistake them for each other.
At owrst, you have been struck with a horrible bug that won't let you play. Some people are having problems connecting as well (server maintenance notices, constant updating when updated etc)
Try again later first though <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Align, the recomended build for all mages in first job is :
lvl----AP ------skill 8- 1 SP into Energy Bolt 9- 3 SP into MP Recovery 10- 2 SP into MP Recovery, 1 SP into MP Increase 11- 3 SP into MP Increase 12- 3 SP into MP Increase 13- 3 SP into MP Increase (Maxed.) 14- 3 SP into MP Recovery 15- 3 SP into MP Recovery 16- 3 SP into MP Recovery 17- 2 SP into MP Recovery (Maxed.), 1 SP into Magic Claw 18- 3 SP into Magic Claw 19- 3 SP into Magic Claw 20- 3 SP into Magic Claw 21- Save SP (Due to Magic Claw doubles mp after lvl 10) 22- Save SP 23- 9 SP into Magic Claw 24- 1 SP into Magic Claw (Maxed.), 2 SP into Magic Guard 25- 3 SP into Magic Guard 26- 3 SP into Magic Guard 27- 3 SP into Magic Guard 28- 3 SP into Magic Guard 29- 3 SP into Magic Guard 30- 3 SP into Magic Guard (Maxed.)
Oh and Align, what i was saying was "Please become an ice mage in the 2nd job" as lightning in later levels pwns my ponce. It freezes or stuns monsters for a while. I obviously cant force you to becom that though. I was just suggesting. And if we are all going to party together later, it would be nifty to have a strong Lit/ice mage <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
You can only start giving/taking fame at level 15 :3 I think they did that just to stop people making and remaking chars to uber fame/defame others.
As for mage design; I thought you were nuts for a second steel :p I originally read that as adding 1 to energy bolt each level before I realised you were just listing all the skills you'd have at each level rather than what you'd be adding XD but yeah... that seems correct, though mages might want claw to be useable earlier (about level 3-5 magic claw) before finishing off mp recovery, but that's just a personal choice really :3
I honestly don't know what the devs were thinking when they put in energy bolt and magic armour though... they're both nigh on useless compared to the other options, especially armour which gets worse and worse as you go up in the world because it's a fixed amount rather than a % :/

Aproximate time of death; 1 minute 34 seconds into quest.
by the time Align got back to the place of his death this mage came rolling in and decimated the golems easy as pie, and then went deeper into golem infested territory for further enjoyment. suffice to say, we did not follow.
We made it! our first (Align's second) attempt to get to the fabled Sleepywood has been met with unparalled success! we are victorious and will both be surely stocking up on sleepywood town portals <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

here's a lovely little snapshot of Steel lending me some rather precious items, an incredibly rare (and awesome) shield which i unfortunately will only be able to use for 5 levels, considering i'm going spearman at level 30 <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->, and also a pair of sexah gloves which i am much appreciative of, i wub gloves.
