Have you ever started a new character?

Post by Stallowned »

I've never done it. I put too much time into this character, and having to restart all over would sicken me. If only I had found out earlier how messed up it was :banghead:
All my rl friends restated their characters, but they were planning on doing so from the start. They should have told me when they gotme into the game that I should only make this char to test things out :banghead:
Oh well :)

I think the poll messed up. for the last option it was "4+ times (please specify)"
Anyway I doubt anyone restarted that many times, and if you did just vote 4 and put how many times :?

I started on Xian but moved to Babel when it opened. I underestimated the speed of the botters and the unemployed. Only ditched a L13 character, though, no real loss. I am not planning to make another character but I have thought at times of trying one out with a bow or blade. It's just not worth the time training him all the way back up.

I've started over for different builds multiple times. Just understand that any build is good if you can make it work. (Probably 6 times.) :D

Once and just once. I don't want to redo this all over again, so I'm sticking with the 2nd character. Yes Bake, never underestimate the unemployed cause they can reach level 25 in 3 days flat. Or maybe less. I know I took only 2 days to hit 21.

I'll restart when Romans are released. =) I want a Roman infantryman. In the mean time I'll just collect tons of cash and figure out what sorta build I want to use.

I was real close to restarting not long ago, but figured out a way to fix my build so I'm happy with it again :D

I do have 2 alts which I have plans for once my main gets boring though.

I've kept debating about restarting AyaChan...And then I remember all the quests I'll have to repeat, not to mention the money spent on various things...And then the chance I may lose my char name and my Guild lacking a lvl 3x.

The reason why? I didn't know there was a boobage-meter at character creation. AyaChan looks like A. Jolie did during the Tomb Raider movies. Ugh. >.<

I want her to have the tiny boogage! :banghead:

Restarted 2 times on different servers with the same type character until I settled to Babel. 3rd time I made opposite gender char just because I kept finding female stuff on my male character + I had found nice +5 lvl8 bow for lowbie SP farming :D New female char also helps me with selling all that low level stuff from my full bank without the need to bring my higher char back to Jangan.

I would love to restart because there are so many things that I don't like about my character, but I just don't want to have to go through all the damn quests again.. That's the only thing keeping me from restarting... For me, once I passed lvl 20, that was my PNR (Point of No Return).. Maybe once I get to the highest level possible I'll restrt.. But until then I don't see myself restarting

I'm kind of hoping that when the new areas are released they delete all the chars while keeping the items and all...
I don't want to bring myself to restart my character, but I know that he should be much better at this level :banghead: Besides, I'd rather havea white character than an asian character, no offense to any asians.. just like an asian would want an asian character :wink:

Speaking of roman characters, does anyone know whether equipment is going to be race-specific in addition to gender-specific? In other words, will a Roman character be able to use equips that are labeled as "chinese"?

I must be out of the loop on this, but what are you guys talking about Roman Characters? Is there a new update coming up or something?

I now have 4 level 20-23 characters, 2 level 3-10 on various servers. I honestly think I have screwed all but one up. Grinding 600 chakjis and 150 ghost bug eggs really really sucks. I've completed the 600 on one character, and am 56 eggs into the next quest.

Luckily the char that I didn't screw up is the one that finished them.


I can't start again.

Eventually, yes. Joymax plans to add areas, items and characters centered in Rome and the Islamic world. No word yet on whether Islamic protectors will kill both the botter and the person who uses them.

I'll Lvl up my char no matter how long it takes and learn all skillz ! :twisted: C ya all l8er ! (Lvl60+)
