Running wire pays off in the long run. Should a house ever get sold, a big plus is having it already wired for a network. Even if standards of wiring change over the years, at least there will be a wire in there you can help fish the new stuff through. Wireless is convenient sometimes, and inconveni...

Nowadays games are memory hogs. Video card is next, and in a distant third is the processor speed.

I'm using a decently old machine with an upgraded video card and 1gb of memory and that's seemed to run SRO fine even in 1680x1050 that my monitor is set to.

There are stupid players everywhere. Apparently warriors are supposed to keep all mobs off all our squishy party members 100% of the time and not use half of the available skills through the mid 20s to appease the masses. I got an idea, maybe magical damage dealers could stop spamming nukes like the...

I have an account on RedSea...

I played on it for some friends' sake. They stopped playing and once Euro hits, I realized I have more assets on Xian. Maybe when that happens I'll have an event to raffle off my redsea items and money.

This may sound silly to some but...

(just for clarification, some people have done it in the past)

A % literally means how much better it is in that category than a storebought equipment of the same level . Your 600-650 (0%) vs 550-600 (65%) analogy doesn't really work, because we would probably be talking about 2 different weapon echelons. Two weapons of the same level (say 42 in this case) will...

Stones can be rather tricky sometimes, namely on the most important stat of an item (br for shields, critical value of a weapon). There's no trick for better success, you just need to keep trying. BR 14 is by no means bad, but it's already at 0%, can't hurt to keep trying, unless you're afraid assim...

Farming usually is easier at the beginning of a new degree of weapons, but if you have a decent weapon that will allow you to kill quickly within the middle of a degree, then by all means do that. The key to farming is what YOU find most efficient, and the least boring, not what everyone tells you o...

Fire shield reduces not the effect of a status effect, rather the duration it will last on you, either eventually making you close to immune(with jewelry) or allowing you to cure those status effects with cheaper universal pills. The duration it's lowered by is the number the skill says, but it's a ...

that would all make sense, exept for the fact that most things have reinforces that are at 80%-105%~ for phys and 99%-120%~ for mag, (jsut examples) which would put the defense much to high Those %s are on weapons, though, not armor. Most armors have around 5-15% reinforces. On weapons (like mine) ...

You MUST be able to get some profit from the event that's going on? One identity card/black devil suit could completely change your income. I had a main account on Xian but then switched to redsea (meaning I have a buttload still sitting on Xian). Anyway I started redsea with nothing around the begi...

To add to that, I hear WoW and other similar games have their fair share of downtimes too, so even subscribers for money have to deal with it.

It's nothing new but I think the fact the game IS free makes people feel they are free to whine too. *shrug*

I found a similar piece, but Armor on Xian a long time ago (sosun) for 1 mil flat.

Regular equipment, even with good (%)s will not be a full subsitiute for an SoS. The + on a weapon literally increases the level of the equipment, so a Lvl 16 Sos bow (usually around 5-7+) will be more like a level 23 bow. Even with a lower critical rate, SoS guarantees a much better base phys and m...

I knew it looked familiar, wasn't sure what from.

Although at the same time I'm sure that's traditional chinese makeup, and in turn, George Lucas stole that from some history books for use in his movies.

Some interesting mysteries.

In lineage 2, you can't say "923". No Idea why.

Having the problem too, imbues aren't going in chains.

Quick question.

You're using imbue before your nukes right? Cause a spear should have an advantage but not do 60% more damage, at least not at that level. An imbue could make a ~400 damage difference if you're int heavy.

I'd have to say beyond hand-eye coordination and reaction time, my mathematical skills, reading skills, and logical (cognitive) skills are much better. As a kid I played tons of RPGs on the nintendo and master system, and worked my way up. I wanted to know how many HP i could enter a round with and ...

phy reinforce is the reinforcement of the phy power when the player wield the weapon You just used a term to describe itself....heh. As said above, the % listed for reinforces adds that much more defense (or damage) to your overall amount (on your char sheet) by multiplying the reinforce by your st...

Bids In Increments of no less than 100k Please.

Well... 1= When your being Sarcastic you need to add some humor to it... like show the pic and have a line under it saying "wow...stallers cant be to blame to the lag around storage "....see thats how you do sarcasim... so pratice how to use it because you clearly dont know how to. 2= Tha...

This is a unique request, and more of a post to find out if there would be any takers before I sell some things off too hastily. I have an old account on Xian that I used to play several months ago. I accumulated some wealth and some nice items. My problem lies in the fact that my clan from another ...

If You're gonna nuke, soul cut is kinda useless. It can do decent damage, but It's a physical delivered skill, so it wont do that much as a pure int.

Just auto-update. If you can't access the update server, change your hosts file to have the new ip address. Example: Browse to C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc Should be the correct path for you If you're on an XP machine. Open the file "hosts" with notepad Add a line under "127.0.0.1 ...

Waiting periods are very common in almost all newer MMOs. Just get used to it. It's a very handy thing (as said) if someone tries to delete your chars.

I don't think you quite understood. It's most likely (Phys Defense) + (Phys Reinforce * Str) So say an armor had 10 pdef and 6% P-reinforce. Say your char has 100 str. (10) + (.06 * 100) = 16 pdef. Say a pure int guy wore the same piece. (10) + (.06 * 40) = 12.4 pdef. Just to show that your characte...

I don't think that's true. Str builds take less physical damage, but parry ratio automatically helps you take closer to minimum damage than normal. This includes magic attacks thrown at you, so every bit of parry helps.

If you have the SP, it would definitely be worth it in my opinion.

I think it makes a large difference, especially the higher level you get. Increasing my physical reinforce on my weapon at lvl 16 (from (0%) to (23%)) on my pure str blader gave me a good 10-20 more damage on my character sheet. I don't know the formula, as I don't think anyone else does either, but...
