I have a theory on how islam is going to work.

I for one think islam is going to have no pots at all, and instead are going to be able to block, as well as parry shots, and will have very high defence and stuff. I think this because chinese=potters europeans=semipotters semidefencers islam=defencers?

(Yes, I know defencers isn't a word)

I had another theory, I forgot it though, lol.

Anyways, post any theories or speculations you have about islam here, I'd like to hear what everyone has to think about it (also, please don't be like "omG islAm is sO faR Away, dOn't TAlk aBout iT Now! wE onLY haVe 90 CAp rIGht noW!")

no pots = no defense and no offense lol

well true but they do have 'summons' that could be tanks for them in grinding...but not sure about pvp

Pots should be required. But I think the word you should use is defenders. I don't know. It's way to soon to tell. I'm hoping that ksro gtets it before their 110 cap though. I'm interested to know if there skill mastery points will work like euro or china.

Yeah, but why do china chars even have summon monster control in the action window? And Created monster. Always wondered that.

hm... no pots = no mp for skills... at least do some thinking
and no hp pots = rogue/wizard bait, no point summoning things to fight if you cant see what you are fighting

Posted: **Fri May 16, 2008 9:23 pm**

my theoroy is they will have 2 main trees weapon skills and summon skills, it could work differnt from both euro and chinese by having the summons get xp for using them instead of using sp for all of it and sp be solely for weapon skills. But I bet it'll force some one to focus on choosing just one summon type

Their skills would be really cheap, mp wise, and they would have passive skills that increase the rate that hp and mp regeneration rates.

Also, I remembered my other theory, it's that they'll have no skill mastery limit, so you can just make 2 islams to experience the whole race, one pure int, one pure str.

Islam would be the middle of the skill mastery thing, because euros can always only have 2 maxed, chinese it depends on their level, and islam could always have as many as they want maxed, assuming they have the sp for it.

like that the game won't be balanced ,think of a capped fully farmed from islam

Just made me think of something.

I think it would be a good Idea to first choose like a summon/idol to represent you character. This would be like mastery lvls. Fire tree for E.G. Depending on what your summon is, that's your base skills in comparison to china's force tree's. They could have like Holy/Dark summons(which would mean holy magic or dark magic) to introduce something new. And of course the original light/fire/cold summons to represent them. But you can only pick one Summon/Force Then you have your weapon skills which consists of new weapons other than euro or china. E.G. scythes would be sweet

Fist weapons, 2H axes? Short swords<--similar to daggers. And ranged could be Guns lol. (If you argue saying they didn't have them back then, they didn't really have a lot of things in the game)

So what do you think? Btw I just thought of that like 5 minutes before writing so of course there's holes but yea....

This is a description of the Islamic race when you choose them in character selection:

textuisystem.txt wrote:Islamic characters can summon Genies. The genies can attack physically, or use the elemental magics of their nature. Islamic characters use four kinds of weapons: sword, ax, katar, and can summon genies whose magics are based on Earth, Wind, Fire, and Water

lol I was kinda on the right path.

so if you pick a weapon you can't have a summon?

Are you referring to my theory?

Posted: **Fri May 16, 2008 10:38 pm**

I'm starting to despise these topics, as the ideas they present are just "Out-There". XD

Chinese: Heavy Solo, as said by Joymax.
European: Heavy Party, as said by Joymax.
Islam: Only logical deduction: balanced.

Based on Patterns you can deduce they can only max two masteries, not unlike Chinese and Europeans characters.

Based on the Pk2 and Website interviews Islam will have these Weapons:

They removed the Chakram (Ranged Weapon) and replaced the Scimitar with the ax. The only two remaining original weapons that we know of are: Katar and Sword. This can change at any point.

Based on the Pk2 and Website interviews Islam will have summons based on:

Conclusion: Mastery will look some what like this:
Weapon Mastery:

Skill 1
Skill 2
Skill 3
Repeat+1

Summon Mastery:

Skill 1
Skill 2
Skill 3
Repeat+1

Now how the summons work? Idk and Idc. Are summons str based or int based? Idk and Idc. Why don't I know and why don't I care? I don't have enough information to come to a conclusion on such things and would rather not speculate. What you're probably hoping for? Ideas on how Islam will be a the moderate of the two extremes. Give it a Medium Pot delay between the European and Chinese one and give it atk power/defense higher than Chinese but lower than European. Give it party friendly buffs that aren't as good as Europeans buffs but still get the job done. Give it self-Buffs that aren't as good as chinese but are decent. Then make summons like the rogue scorn skill meaning you have to kill the summon before killing the Character. When coming up with an idea at least make sure it is within the realm of reason.

the descriptions says 4 weapons, but only lists 3 and then says they can also take genies, so based on that it sounds as if you can't have both, of course joymax can't word anything intellagantly

I think Islam will pawns and if you want an islam char you have to pay for 250 silk to start one, and every time you level up you pay again or your char gets deleted + joymax suit you for asking some support and feedback coz wadafaq do you think customers you think you deserve anything?

The skill doesn't have to be an atk skill. That's why I put "skill" because I don't know what type of skills they will have but they will have some skills. Buffs sounds like a good assumption.
