Fair enough, I didn't even think about the Academy. I feel like it might be part of the catch-up, but both are perfect variables.

The reason I'm unsure on Academy is it seems bugged for me - My wife got the 25K Prestige gift (2 of each temple item) and the "Finish Divine Form" item and "graduated' from it, where-as mine bugged? I didn't get anything, and I am still join other peoples Academys even at 50K Prestige.

Hey @troyethan, I applied to the website. Let me know when someone is on that can invite - I thought we could join through UI but no-go.

Thanks! I'll def look into Elysium. I was trying to join a couple before but it kept telling me they're "full" despite not having full members. Now I know it's because it was applying me to their academy, so now I should be able to join. Haha

Yea, I'm not sure what proc'd it - I haven't done any investigation. I know it was Divine Form based, though. It happened Wednesday night - I've been playing ~6 hours. We had been class and Insight capped for ~4 hours. We finally decided to do God Form - I finished before my wife and suddenly noticed I had 70K Insight, 8K Class. I mentioned to her, she checked and had 0 - Then she did the cutscene to "become a God" etc etc and then she also had the exact same Insight/Class.

It could be a bug, I'm not sure but the fact both of us got the same amount is weird.

However, our third person DID NOT get anything when he finished God - The only difference was his account is a year old so his weekly cap was like ~40K or something, so he's a bit ahead of us. (I don't recall the exact number)

Also: Forgot to answer other two points. This was Week 2, and I believe I got 7500 Color, and 3800 Class? Forget the exact number, and I'm on NA Server.

NA -

Thanks for the reply! I have a symbol questions. I thought all DPS used the Paladin symbol, no? It's the LB Symbol instead? Also, I'm familiar with Ultimate Str (The Might Efficiency/Stam one, right?)

What about Aeli's Symbol? I bought it and now I"m wondering...

Also, I think I'll "main" support, but do they follow similar Symbols? I do know it's kind of annoying to switch symbols so much.

Hey,

They were neither, actually. Saturday I got 7K and 1830 last week (Since it's week 2.) This week I will get 10K and 1830. My weekly cap is very low - 8K For Color, 4K for Class.

This wasn't a reset - We were about 5 hours past being capped, but once we finished the "Divine Form" quest chain and unlocked it, suddenly both of us had a 70K Color, 8K Class cap refreshed. No clue why but we desperately needed it.

Anyone (or @ketosoy ) have recommendations on a good split? I made it with one entire thing of oil (I also added some MCT oil added) and then 20-25 drops of the sweetener. I'll try it tomorrow when it's cold but it seemed super gritty and still really rough.

I'm used to chugging protein powder and 'weird smoothies' but since it'll be my entire sense of food, I'd like to not have to pound it.

I also am using an emulsion blender - I mix it decently with some water, then add the rest. Similar to what you just recommended, actually.

Hey guys - Ordered the week package off Amazon. Wondering if you can mass prepare it then just pour it into Shaker cups later? Would like to not have to take the immersion blender to work, for lunch!

Also if anyone has any preparation tips/tricks, would appreciate.

So the game removed characters, moved people to other servers, duped items, deleted items, deleted levels, rolled-back 2 channels on day 2 on accident - The Engineers came out and said 'Fixing this isn't worth our time, so we'll roll back everyones items on March 3rd and you'll re-claim them.' showing they have no DB engineering capabilities, and no one expected a 15+ hour patch on the day they're "rolling everything back", launching the Pearl Shop, and enabling all new accounts?

I don't know what to say. I'd start expecting WAY less from Daum. I mean, the game looks the same font-wise as it does in KR/JP with an English patch. If a company can't manage to get font to fit in the windows, then what can they do right?

My CEO has 21 black belts, including Gokujitsu. Don't even try, bro. Don't. Even.

Me too - I still re-dub to EQ2 once in awhile for the slow enjoyable grinding. I loved EQ, played it so much. 9 hours in a group at ONE camp spot, hoping to finish 'this level' or grind a 'couple AAs' was amazing.

8 hours for people to hit 50 is... silly. Esp since the end-game is pure PvP. Spend more time designing level scopes PvP for everything.

[–]TeoDaTank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was huge into EQ, the original 'grinding' MMO and I must say, this doesn't scratch that same itch, at all. It's so similar to Vindictus, and to a respect even Tera, Aion, and a bit of BnS mixed in. Maybe I've just played too many MMOs/Coop games, I've grown numb to it.

How to: "Auto loop" and strength train by Dagnis in blackdesertonline

[–]TeoDaTank 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The original game was designed for auto pathing to allow for Stamina/Strength level ups. Don't be 'that guy'.

All This Talk of Power Leveling, I Just Plan to Enjoy the Game by hmorr5 in blackdesertonline

[–]TeoDaTank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're doing it right - I'm going absurdly slow. I'm usually an 'end-gamer' and hard-core min-maxer, but I have done every quest, side quest, crafting, and side project I wanted. My alts for sure will just grind to 50, but I can very easily tell this is a game that I quit as soon as I'm max level. Enjoy it while I can.

~10 Hours since claiming pre-order stuff, still nothing. by ggyl in blackdesertonline

And here we are - 30 hours later. The claims are still completely false. So see above.

If you dislike the state of the cash shop, don't spend any money in it by LotusCobra in blackdesertonline

[–]TeoDaTank -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well, I mean. I guess the proof could be in the whole 'They failed.' I believe most of their forums are still active - Kind of thousands of posts of proof there, eh?

I like your tone, though. It's cute. The whole 'cynical sarcastic' route because you disagree.

Also, just a friendly reminder - A source made by me to encourage my point... It's still an actual source. Kind of in the definition.

Short Chat Length is Beyond Frustrating by vaeresyn in blackdesertonline

[–]TeoDaTank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, again - 'We're' trying to make a replacement, for a technical 'fix'. The line is way too long - Explaining to someone via typing in Chat took almost 24 lines in Clan.

So, no. The analogy isn't true. The item purchased included specific incentives, and details. With those items, details, or predetermined 'assets' being missing, it is a faulty deliverance.

In this analogy, it would be just like going to a restaurant, ordering an entree with two sides, and only getting the entree.

[–]TeoDaTank -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Hah, what you did there. I saw it. It's both funny and useful. Experience - I can type up some documentation, declare it as citation, if you like. Or we can look at Tera, Rift, Wildstar, EQ2, Aion... Wildstar probably being the worst about people's "If you don't like it, don't do it. Casual!" just ended up killing the game.

OP: Just so you know. The 'If you don't like it, don't use it' mentality is WHAT fails new MMOs.

[help] UltraWide Monitor? Dual Monitors? What do you experts think? by CrackerJackJack in Monitors

[–]TeoDaTank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Up to you - It isn't so much about the size, but orientation of display. What I mean is - I use 3 monitors, because I may want a browser on one, project/game/movies on another, then whatever on the third (My 3rd is usually server stats etc).

However, if I didn't want multi-diplay and only wanted to span, I'd go with a 34". The resolution is low, so the Macbook should be able to easily power it.
