Act now! Play archlord and start grinding up to level 184. Once at level 184 you can start PVP'ing and not die to someone higher level than you!. Getting to max level will only take you 4 years!... Yes the title of the message said 3 but since you clicked the grind has been increased!!

And the grind wont be horrible, since you'll be able to buy increasing exp talismans with your credits..
Plus it's like already 3x faster than l2.
Lol?

It takes at most 20 hours to reach lvl 25 , that iis with doing the quests for basic items. It takes 20 minutes to go from 24 to 17 (possibly up to 30 on some characters) , because they have quests in the 4th town at gives 100k xp and 10k gold. Ya get 50k for the last one in the series.
Then new quests pop up giving ya 15k to 20k xp plus 2 to 4 refinement pots. From there ya go hunt the dungeon for a hour or so at the 3rd lvl (which can soloed by Moonelf elementalist , Orc Beserker , Knight and Human archer at 22) you keep going til ya hit the mobs with 4k to 6k xp a pop.
I started pvping on my Human archer at 9 , twinked him out with a nice bow and armor , most characters can handle people up to 3 lvl highers. (if your build doesnt suck) .
It's an RFOnline clone plain and simple.
Nothing says PVP like pot spamming!
Umm, yeah. Pots are Heal Over Time and you can easily outdamage players faster then they can use them.
You CANT spam the potions, they heal over time, and it's rather slow. And you do more damage than they heal for anyways, so most battles are over under 30 seconds..

Man gameloading you are all over this board defending this peice of crap. Are they paying you or something to defend each and every post that is being made agaisnt it? i have played each and every MMo out in market and done loads of beta testing. In my opinion this game is going to be a flop. It won't even last 6 months.
I am very disappointed with it. Also the gender restrictions are big put off. I don't care whatever reason you give for it.. it's bullshit. Wait for this game to release and then watch it sink like titanic.
Bookmark this post because very soon you will believe what i just wrote.

Then I gotta ask, are you getting paid by a corporation of trolls to continue bashing the game?
You've played each and every MMO in the market? How many of those games have you taken the time to get to know top to bottom, in and out? It's also known that you hate Korean MMO's (refer to the 9Dragons section of the forums in the thread 'Oh come on not another asian themed MMORPG...!')
"Damn it every second MMORPG has the same looking character and same theme. I am not even going to touch this game. What happened to themes like Anarchy Online or Earth and Beyond. Excess of everything is bad and i had enough of these chinese MMO's. Most of them suck anyways." ~Getalife
So you're not even going to play 9Dragons yet you'll post that it sucks and you won't play it, then come here and tell us you've played everything and act like your opinion is the only right one.
Ah, and I had a look at your previous posts. I quote from the City of Heroes section....
"Ok i give up... i can't downlaod the damn thing. Who gives a sh*** anyways? It's COH's loss not mine. I will go back to playing WOW and EQ2. It's sad the game which is already in trouble has such f*** up customer support. I cancelled my future subscription too. Chapter closed." ~Getalife
Gee whiz, that's yet another major MMO you haven't played. And the game is in trouble? Last I checked the game was booming and doing very well. Tsk tsk.
You also sound like quite the Anarchy Online fan. I quote.
"ughhhh.. what a stupid comment. It took you three years to reliase that AO is stupid?? you are not the bright one are you?? In MMORPGS its just a matter of days and sometimes weeks to reliase that it appeals to you or not. Being a vet player you could have posted some constructive opinion so that new players are encouraged. instead you call it stupid.. now thats what i call being STUPID!! and i will ignore all your posts in the near future.
And i am not going to give you any new tips either because if i recommend you a new game, who knows you call that game stupid too after playing it for an year or two?? or maybe call me stupid for giving you a tip." ~Getalife
So you bash someone because they don't like the game you like? You call him stupid for just posting the game is stupid instead of something constructive? Ooooh I sense a bit of hypocrisy here...
Now do tell me why in the world would we take your opinion seriously?
And I'll copy/paste your post and save it on my computer. See you in six months.
The game really isnt that bad. Granted the payment system is gay ass shit but the game itself is pretty fun.

Highly doubtful.
Look at RFO, it's still going.
Look at l2, it's still going even though people complain about all the botting and ebaying and farmers.
-rolls eyes- Just because your not happy with it, doesn't mean the rest of us can't like it and defend a game WE LIKE.
And the genders are because of the lore. Get over it.

"And the genders are because of the lore."
The lore is rather vague and the quests dull and plain.
The monster AI and PvE is horrid, theres no challenge just there for a treadmill to gain xp, gold and items and the poorly designed "crafing system".
The game world? It's dull and plain, it's not persistent/dynamic at all - it's not a MMORPG it's a hack n' slash action game.
The PvP then? Badly executed, theres no twitch based action, it's all about who putted there skill points in viable areas and those who gimped themselfs and about lvl and gear, not particulary skill - I just ran and insta killed people my lvl and above because I choose the most viable skills for my orc zerker (lvl 24) and with my orc hunter (lvl 18) I got pretty much owned by casters and kited warriors with ease.
This game, being released 2006 and have less developed PvP than WoW, DaoC, Shadowbane and many more which released a year to years ago, as well as the PvE which is just a treadmill to extend the games lifetime.
Well, I'm going to play it some more because it has some value and I like it, my intrest will probaly fade in 1 or 2 days from now though so I might try picking up a caster bought out caster equip (orc) for 380k.
And btw, farming gold in this game is extremely fast.

Actually,like most PvP games with levels,it's a combination of both level & gear until the person catches up to their level.
I've already found a use for Archlord's PK; free passport! Get killed now,and you teleport back to home for free. No passport,no portal needed! Willing purple skull needed however.
This game reminds me of L2, you level like hell and try to get to end game. Where you can start PVPing. That kind of thinking is old fashioned. It's just one-uping EQ. Guild Wars, was very forward thinking bringing in a PVP system that can be accessable at any time. Really, i don't know if it's just laziness (in an EQ way, where you go for quantity over quality) or lack of imagination that these devs can't come up with creative and fun ways to play their......... MMO "RPG"s.
Other than that, the graphics look superb. The innovation of being able to rule, is certainly enticing the kind of crowd that will stick around.
How did you know that today's patch was going to make
spell cooldowns 2x longer, pots healing ability lower at 2x higher price and 2x longer cooldown with drop rate lovered to 1/10? And I better not mention lower item drop rates and ability to take on 1/4 of number of enemies one was used to attack. And a lot of items got their bonuses removed. And tradeskills now give materials at 1/10 rate than before. Oh, and item durability was lowered too, because there weren't enough money sinks ingame before...
(I can smell an insideder betatester for Codemasters )
Well, it was fun while it lasted, now it's Just Another Korean Grindfest game.

It's BETA.
They WILL change it.

I'd say the server population being few (when typically it is at least many, or crowded) says a lot about this patch.
you guys can be fan of this game what ever you want but after this huge nerf it loses even harder to games like wow and gw in europe and us.
I predict this game will fail now drop rate is terrible now its maybe after yesterday 70% harder to lvl almost on al fronts its been nerfed.
Games like this should be fun, and to reach lvl100 to play 10 hours a day or more is for most europeans or us players not fun.
Hope for you guys it will succeed but im affraid thats a slim chance now after this big nerf.
Hope to build full AMD system RYZEN/VEGA/AM4!!!

It is true that AL is nothing new in the market, and plenty of grind factor. However it is strangelyaddictive and fun to me and I actually had some fun pvping esp when I am a PvE person.
Anyway, as long as the player gets the fun factor from the game, then the name is successful for him/her.
Cheers~
Seeing a fun game being changed to grindfest is not entertaining. Seeing how badly they handled patch distribution does not show a promise of handling retail better. (Players had to create and post mirrors and torrents to distribute the patch) Seeing how CM's communication with NHN developers does not work is not funny.
NO, I won't "relax".
reasons are here:

[QUOTE=Onieyes]Here is the Best I can make of the situation to present it in the same fashion almost as many have.
I understand that you would like us to belive that this was just a beta patch and that it was not intended to stay like this. However I guess that your NHN counterparts either kept you in the dark or there was a serious lack of communication between you and that this patch was not covered properly as to it's content.
The reason I stae this is that Archlord in Korean went live with much of this small patch we just received intact. I should know. I had an Archlord Korean account and just like it did in Korea especially with the many other Korean games and with the advent or RohanOnline in Korea at that time, it KILLED many a player who actually considered playing.
The repurcusions of this patch and the inability of the publishers behind ArchLord at the time which was Nexon proved to be ArchLord's downfall in Korea. ArchLord went from about 70 000 users online and 6% market share to a mere 0.15 share during beta period due to this very patch and the refusal to retract it or issue new and better upgraded patch content. This caused Nexon to go away from charging for P2P and going to the item system it now uses to recoup some of its cash.
People can say I am lieing but the proof is right here.

[QUOTE=Mr.Ktat]Hey Guys,
So to provide some feedback to you all on last nights patch. Now I am relying the information that I am currently able to provide.
A number of the changes that went in last night were not as intended and we are working with NHN to get these amended and patched back in as soon as possible.
I also hope to be getting a list of the changes that we have requested from NHN and will post this up as soon as possible so that everyone is as aware as possible to what we are trying to do and why.
A large percentage of the feedback on this patch has been constructive and useful and I thank all of you for that. These changes are being feedback to our production team and NHN.
I will keep you updated with as much information I can as soon as I can.
Thank you,
Mr.Ktat[/QUOTE]
