Hi, I'm bac after two years. Many noob questions

Post by Mandrial »

Hi all,

I have been gone for two years and now I am back. I played both European and Chinese characters. The latter is much more superior to the former.

As you know my fetish ring, my level 17 character is already equipped with SOS gold ring.

My questions are:

1. What is taxi (in the game).
2. What is catch the flag event? Why participate? What are the benefits?

Best,
Mandrial

In game, a taxi is just another word for a Powerlevel.

Capture the flag is fun, most of the time. You are put on teams 8 v 8 and have to kill a room full of mobs in order to find a key to open a door which leads to a corridor with a flag in it.

The opposite team has to do the same thing, but, their door is at the opposite end of the corridor w/ the flag.

The team with possession of the flag at the end of the (what is it) 20? minutes wins.

You get tickets, of which you can trade 10 in to so-ok for a MP recovery grain :) OH! and I forgot to mention, you get a lot of exp from killing the mobs.

(&... sorry to burst your bubble, but that ring is probably worth 200k. At most.)

My questions are:

1. What is taxi (in the game).
"Taxi" in sro means that a lower lvl person is in a experience share party with a way higher lvl character, thus the high lvl kills faster and the lower lvl gains more exp per hour then grinding solo.
2. What is catch the flag event? Why participate? What are the benefits?
This is a event that teleports two teams of 8 to an area similar to the DW caves, your goal is to get and maintain the flag as long as possable. Rewards to killing a member of the oppisite team is a gold trophy, collect ten trophys and you can exchange them at So-Ok for various stuff like vigor grains, hp scrolls, etc. Its just a different kind of pvp really.


And no offense but what the heck does a sos ring have to do with anything about your questions? And there are pros and cons to euro and chinese, your statement about china being "much more superior" is unjustified.
My pride and joy CrazySuby is no longer mine. She is and always will belong to Dutchy.

You're right of course. I meant that played Chinese two years ago. I've played European character for two weeks now, very weak in comparison.

Welcome Back to The Silkroad my friend, while you were gone some botters wiped there ass's on the silk part of the road and now the Silkroad has a few stains in it. But don't worry JM is now making them use toilet paper and banning them too.
