Since people make decisions, or come to a conclusion when they get tired of thinking.

I guess you're still thinking about what build you like best, it's no crime,
personally had over 25 characters before finally focusing on one.

I did exactly the same thing before. I just kept doing new chars all the time.

It was because I always thought my char hade a bad name or looked weird :P

I think it is to accept your character and not to think off quiting it :)

I used to have the same problem, just stick to one char, it usually turns out just fine.. unless you go hybrid on a euro.

Eh im trying too stick with one character, But i just can't lols.

Only char i got past 30 was my Pure Int s/s..

I try too make a Euro Warrior( Slow Grind fest ), Xbow (Hard to get too 20 lmao, Without being bored ), Wizard ( Too easy ), But they all need too be in a party too level fast, ( And i can never find one, Or either i join one, and i do all the killing so i just leave it. )

I was thinking about making a Chinese char, I got Glavie in mind, Or bow.. But idk which too go with. ( Downside is, That there pot killers. )

I Had my nuker before euro came out and was gonna cap him to 90, but sadly he is stuck at 71 atm cause I'm now on a 2H warrior/Rogue

Nuker pvp = Fail lol. I have tried with mine so much, but at higher lvls for a nuker pvp is only fun with suns I'm sure unless you have wep skills, which I don't. One maddening or Dare Devil from a 2H and you'll die as a Pure INT nuker.

The problem is there sin;t enough fun for them to keep grinding. Unless people job more and pvp more they lose track of why they are grinding. Typically the legit people who hit high levels job and pvp the whole way along and use the concept of trying to beat a rival as a motivation to grind.

Or than you have people who actually like grinding and thus do it regularly. They enjoy grinding on their character, hence no need to make a new one.

The deal? Your will never shine in your server, you cant get skills until you reach an especific level, you cant use armors, weapons until you reach an especific level, you will suck against higher levels at pvp/job wars, you cant grind in certain areas, you wont be able to kill unique monsters..... If you stick with one char you´ll get used to the skills, his weaknesses, specific habilities, you will rock.
This is only what i think, maybe im not right, maybe not sticking with one char is funnier.... :banghead:

My advice: Choose carefully a build, and then, go for it, stick with it, learn how to use it, always try to be the best. Maybe you´ll want to try other builds. It can be done sometimes changing masteries, sometimes not. It´s your decision.

I was thinking of making 1, But the downside is that they get destroyed by Euros. ( What i've read )

started sro with a what i later learnt, hybrid ice archer. it's messed up. but it's ok since i played till lvl 18 only.

pure str fire glaive was next. stopped at lvl 20+.

tried pure int and been sword nuker since.

tried xbow and bard till lvl 10 when euro came out but they din excite me much and returned to sword nuker.

so yeah ... it's not uncommon to try out many builds. the problem is when to stop and if it is worth restarting. most of my other toons are very low level. sword nuker is my only toon that i play now.

Reason i don't stick to one char is cause i like playing different builds both Chinese and Euro just so i don't get bored of the game.
