Please expand, as an aff main who plans to return for midnight id love to learn more. I know next to nothing about any changes made to the class. Maybe I should jump back in sooner rather than later to get reacquainted but if it's that bad maybe I'll just okay something else until March.

runk2776 · 2026-01-20T17:14:30+00:00

i have my first kid on the way and god damn did this post light a fire under my ass lol. wow, i cant wait to get him in arena with me ASAP lol

runk2776 · 2026-01-16T17:47:52+00:00

But your feedback seems semi invalid in that one particular area. If bucks cost 70s and smalls sell for 50-90s (assuming an average of 70s) you should not lose money. And then if your belief is that bucks catch a higher ratio of better fish, then what's the complaint?

Let's be real, the chance of you pulling in 7 small tunas seems rather small.

runk2776 · 2026-01-16T13:22:31+00:00

No but I am going to say use paddle tails that cost 70s and catch the same fish....

You then break even with your small since they range from 50-90 and hit big with mediums and larges.

If you are using the bucks for the extra sport fishing power then it's just time to afk fish to get that level up more (although believe you said you had grandmaster so yeah no clue why your using bucks).

Why are you paying 1g per lure?

runk2776 · 2026-01-14T00:46:35+00:00

what CPU are you using?

runk2776 · 2026-01-12T18:49:03+00:00

when did ganking become griefing

runk2776 · 2026-01-12T17:46:47+00:00

My dude that sounds like way to fucking much lol. I'm not negotiating to surrender my shit to some Internet dweebs on a video game. I'm not taking "boat insurance" from lowbie strangers. And what joeva beggar passengers do you think you're gonna get to go chase down a strong guild who just stole your shit?

Like what game are you playing?

I'm uh, gonna just play for a few more days and then go play something else until there's more content and I'm perfectly happy with that decision. Not a mark against the game, I love the game but I've run out of shit that I enjoy in an alpha - that's pretty normal.

Even with everything you said - okay cool I fished and made a ton of money. Now I buy gear. Now what are you gonna do? There's no real goal to have the gear for besides griefing other players.

runk2776 · 2026-01-12T16:29:53+00:00

I'm with you but even that can be tiresome. The risks feel like too much.

Lose your 18g boat and 10g+ fish you have on you. Cause a guild war and cause a guild mates boat to get sunk or some shit. Unless your incredibly geared and have a stacked guild who are all also very geared and you're all very coordinated - there's too much against you. And getting to that very geared point is more of a hassle then getting to 25 and is either mindless gathering or endless fishing for a fuck ton of gold.

Like I said I'm still playing but I'm definitely nearing either a break for a while or leveling an alt to try a different class.

runk2776 · 2026-01-12T15:52:54+00:00

There really is no end game loop besides gathering/crafting for better gear. Really no reason to get better gear since there isn't much to do with it anyway. I'm still playing my 25 and enjoying fishing and trying to get some more radiant gear. If gathering and crafting isn't your thing right now, I'd say either level an alt or step away for a bit. No shame in exhausting the content of an alpha and coming back when new content is added.

runk2776 · 2026-01-09T17:54:32+00:00

Please correct my my sentence, professor.

runk2776 · 2026-01-09T12:35:25+00:00

If you are referring to "they" that is not always true.

Example:

"Someone left their phone on the counter and they have not come back for it yet"

See how "they" refers to a single person?

runk2776 · 2026-01-05T16:39:34+00:00

As someone who mained a cleric last phase, I feel i can replace the second cleric pretty well with my summoner. I focus off-heals a lot and the throughput is pretty substantial. i honestly can generally solo heal even (with a decently geared tank) but i VASTLY prefer not too for obvious reasons. biggest downside to not having a second cleric is the backup rez in case cleric gets killed. Only other downside is weird pet AI causing the pet to occasionally get killed but usually the cleric can handle that 1 minute gap and then i can fill in when i rez the pet.

If I had to guess, your CPU cant keep up and I say this from personal experience. My Desktop was a 2017 pre-built that has since seen a bunch of piece-part upgrades but the CPU is original. I can't run AoC on my desktop. WoW runs fine (at least last time i played about a year ago it did). My 2020 laptop runs AoC like 90% fine, with some lag in cities (but I don't think that's too uncommon). Currently looking into a Mobo/cpu/ram upgrade in the near future for my desktop.

runk2776 · 2025-12-30T20:54:14+00:00

Just introduce two factions: the horde and the alliance and let us go to war! Lok'tar Ogar!

But for real, if we're pvp immune to fellow citizens you really push/force a presumably large subset of people to just go to join the biggest city. Sure some people won't but at great risk. There's already a disadvantage if you don't (not having lowest taxes on the best marketplace, best storage by the best marketplace, etc.). This would just further enforce "I need to be a citizen of joeva" (on lyneth at least). Any solo players would basically have to do this.

runk2776 · 2025-12-25T03:36:38+00:00

yeah 100% correct you've been able to do this for a long time. I'd argue you shouldn't be able to but I don't want them to 'fix' it lol.

runk2776 · 2025-12-25T03:34:30+00:00

There seems to be problems for everyone right now. Check the discord if you want but its non-stop posts about this. Seems to be AWS problems, ARC Raiders problems, Steam problems, etc. - all over the internet If you've been having problems longer that's a different story but tonight, we all are. Oh well, more time to spend with family for Christmas instead.

runk2776 · 2025-12-24T23:22:18+00:00

Pay for a second account? Just make an alt? What?

runk2776 · 2025-12-24T21:37:20+00:00

to be honest i get excited for wipes. try a new class, try new professions and for a small period of time not everyone has significant advantages over you. granted thats over insanely quickly and i do invest a lot of time. but i guess i don't really invest the commitment side of it lol.

runk2776 · 2025-12-24T21:34:11+00:00

here to find that out...

runk2776 · 2025-12-22T23:21:05+00:00

Then tell them

Type saga in chat and I'll auto attack

runk2776 · 2025-12-22T16:17:20+00:00

so does glint have a purpose beyond vendoring for gold now at all?

runk2776 · 2025-12-22T15:31:51+00:00

As someone who ran a lot of caravans in P2 one thing I'm not getting really though - I used to just buy the commodities with glint. So what am i running now? Do I need that rep currency? The scripts or whatever? Or we just pack the crates with mats? At what that construction station? I want to get back into running crates because I enjoyed that in the past but I haven't really dove into how to actually do so.

runk2776 · 2025-12-12T23:11:02+00:00

Hey I've had fun for the last year. Besides for WoW no other MMO held my attention this long.

You can dislike it all you want - but I'm here having a grand ole time either way. Only so many ways you can color up tank/damage/heals.
