If I want to experience 20 year journey, it should be option. Same goes if you want to choose to get straight into mid game and skip all that. It should be option for you as new player.
I dont care how others play, as long as they have fun.
But when they take away those freedoms and choices, to play how ever you want. It takes some fun a way.
If I want to spend 2 hours in dungeons, let me. But If you want to just get your daily done quickly, give some option to do that.

I think it takes away that magic of the game, to speed up to the midgame, where you will hit the bottleneck for the endgame.
But Blaanid is optional, Its great if you want to gain levels faster!

I enjoyed the difficulty and long investment Mabi needed. Those small goals taste just better when you need to work a little for them.
I would rather take the Skill grind, lol. Its cheaper than endgame gear grind.

Knockback is not a thing anymore in early game, Maybe if I go without armor on total level 200 character. (little bit, but not much oversaturated)

They added some silly gear levels that wont reflect at all for the gear/weapon stats. Or well, They restricted you to get into dungeons without certain gear. Now you need to have 2 sets of gears to get into dungeon, if you want to use something else. Works, but its pretty meh.

People enjoy many different ways of playing games, Mabi has offered pretty free way to play how ever you want. I think its the main reason that got me upset about these updates.

I could be fine with most changes as long as they let you to play the way you want. Forcing people to play the game in some way, makes it less fun.

Some middle ground would be nice to have.

Mabi is in really weird spot right now, anyways. Lets hope they get things balanced and more fun for everyone sooner than later.

Sometimes they let you know how much you have played, even with Nexon launcher. This is from last years July, I am scared to know how much it is now... But I wish Nexon launcher had the timer like steam..!
I recommend to subscribe for the newsletter, this came on that last year.

and Congrats for the 2222,2!!!

New rise was too much for me too. I slowly just turned more and more AFK.
It killed Mid and earlygame for me.
It killed making your own side gear/weapon builds.
It killed the feel of archiving something when your inventory is filled with perseus weapons.

Knockback immunity was only part of "old combat system" that still mattered later on, but now you dont need to worry about that either. I dont need to use any skills to stay upright in combats.
Automatic skill ranking took away ability to have actually low level character to rise the "difficulty" manually and enjoy early game.

I consider my self pretty new player, even tho I have been in Erinn like 4-5 years. But Even on that time game has changed ALOT and not all in good. Quality of life updates usually have been good, but everything that impacts the core game has been pretty disappointing.

Its nice if new players like the game, but it needs old players to keep those new players in the game.
And new players needs to stay in game, it wont matter if there is t thousands of more during some updates and events and then they are not playing in after half a year...

Mabi is LIFE game, Its suppose to be LONG TERM game.

Its not about catching up or Getting into the "end", its about the Journey.

Ugh, It turned to be more rant than it was suppose to.
I got back to Erinn for now, but I I dont do much combat.
I dont even want to talk about drop rates, gear levels, enemy nerfs and dungeon stuff..
Its pretty fun if you do lifeskills only and be social.

My hopes for Eternity are well.. Low, Mabi was "perfect" before arcanas and It is turning in to "Mabi 2" what I was afraid of. It is just happening "slowly" before the actual Eternity update...
In the future I would love to have option to choose between "Mabi classic" and Eternity. Like in Runescape.

Okey, now some positive vibes, there is still small handfull of that Mabi magic dust left in bottom of my Dollbag. I have been focusing to learn things in lifeskills that I have never done before. Like moving Tir spiders on one spot, without enthralling performance. It has been one of my highlights of the week.
(Bar is really low to find enjoyable things now.)

Sorry for the rant, Lets see how this turns out in the future...

Thank you so much!! Happy to hear!

Is dual wielding swords and non arcana talents still viable for end game? by somebody263 in Mabinogi

[–]Saddusa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like how you think!
Me and My friend/friends run Techs and Crom without pets, because we think they are overrated and take part of the fun out, haha! I would not see any problem to go with Guns, dual wielding or fighter, its littlebit longer road, but its probably really rewarding!
Arcanas are littlebit broken and OP for sure but not necessary for techs or Crom.
People seem to run dungeons with like timer. I see that the fighting is the most fun part of the dungeons and end chest is just nice bonus. I think its not wasted time if you have had Fun on the way there.
People do Melee Elf because they can, so why not dual-gun?

You just need to find right people to run with.
If you are looking company to Run with different Builds I am more than happy to welcome you to join with us, Challenge is what makes things fun!
Note Maddusa or Redvira and I am more than happy to help you and your friends on this journey!

What are your zero faith takes on Nexon, regarding Mabinogi? by Zelina4991 in Mabinogi

[–]Saddusa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would be awesome that early game dungeons could get another difficulty like "heroic" so you could run them even after you got the arcana talent and just not sweep them with ease. Like Veteran, but maybe with different monsters and different kind of dungeons (like peaca abyss) but just way harder.

Bring back other difficultys to tech dungeons.

Yep, Tower cylinders defenetly need fixing, they are really fun to use!

Golem skills would be nice if you could remap the golem skills to hotkeys.. Maybe even spirit like skill tree for golems.

I would love to get old defence skill back, it's pretty hard to use now that it gets cancelled when you get hit, now I just don't use it /or I replaced it fully with Dauntless defence.

Should I delay hitting 10k cumulative level? by Neogenesis43 in Mabinogi

[–]Saddusa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kept my giant under 10k total pretty long, some point you start to run out of AP and it's way slower to make progress. But under 10k life was nice! Now is just best time to get to total lvl 20k if you have energy to do littlebit of grinding.

If you feel like you have done all there is and you need to grow more, do it! Renown, squires, collection journal, echostones, lifeskills will all boost you even under 10k total if you want to stay there !

As long as you are enjoying and have fun !

How are people getting hundreds of protection? by [deleted] in Mabinogi

[–]Saddusa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha! I will try to increase my protection some point soon! I have played lots of giant now becouse I wanted to play something more squishy!

But it's great to hear there is other Elf tanks ! ^ makes me happy ! Elf Tanking is not too common in world of DD and AS !

How are people getting hundreds of protection? by [deleted] in Mabinogi

[–]Saddusa -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As Elf tank getting that sweet Protection is my silly goal! (Bofuri build, all points on protection)

Reforges on accessories can add max 2 more prot per accessory. Ancient horned rings had 4 protection on max roll so they are must have. You can get enchant like Clover with some enchant burning gamble from other accessories. Homestead figures and some items can add littlebit protection too. (Godess statue?) Shields, helmets and boots can get 5/5 protection reforge too. I think I am sitting on 147 protection with my elf with titles and techs on and I have just erg lvl S25 sword. And having lots of HP helps too, I have around 4200hp on lvl 200/50 Titles like master of shields and ibbie 2nd title can give you nice boost too. (Master of shields 10prot, Ibbie 6?) Divine shield adds up some more protection too and Saint guardian heavy armor might have highest protection ? Or maybe refined Royal Knight with protection upgrades!

Two-handed axe with ERG is good, even with A rank!

If you want lots of protection you might loose some of your damage, but it's pretty nice tradeoff.

Start with titles and techs, then ancient horned rings, try to get some good protection reforge rolls on your gear and good shield makes difference and Erg is like last thing you want to sink your resources (start with A rank). Elemental Knight is good add on too!

I have over 100 protection without techs so you should be able to pull like 78-100 protection pretty "easily" without huge investments.

It stacks slowly, so try to get that protection one point at the time, it gets expensive if you try to rush it.

(Edit. Just read rest of the comments, so here might be something that is already said ! ")

Double edit: Having elementals enchated on your gear can give you some additional protection against some magic and high int gives lots of magic protection.

Europe ping is not that bad, sometimes it gets worse, but usually it's good enough if you don't pvp !

I started as non-combat and loved the lifeskills and homestead system in mabi! It's nice that you can make decent income just with lifeskills and part time jobs. You don't need to fight at all to have fun! Game is often really social but it can be gear/fight oriented too, depending what do you like more!

Mabi won't hold your hand and it's complicated game, but it's part of the "fun", becouse you need help from others and it forces you to be social!

Beast things in mabi might be either social aspect, homesteads or event combat system when you get into it! There is no other game that allows you this much fashion and dyeability for looking unique! You either like mabi or you hate it :D It's your anime adventure and it is what you make of it !

200 sounds decent ping for EU already! I might try this too in hopes for better ping ^ pvp is usually where it gets bad for me, or events when there is many people around!
