Euro or China, and why?

Post by Crowley »

Which do you prefer and why? Me, I like Chinese. Being Euro is gay, you have to rely on others all the time. They're useless by themselves. And don't give me all that "But they're based on party play" shit. Lets face it, the strong are strongest alone.

With the euro party play, I level faster. It's rather fun playing in a team, as you sometimes don't know what players you get, and what mood they're on. xD I get dramas of course, and some lulz. I can even save money on pots as I usually have excellent bards and clerics. :D

I don't think I can ever make myself play a Chinese again. Solo grind would probably make me quit this game. Only thing I like from the Chinese game play is the fact that you can pretty much grind anytime you want to without the need of waiting for others to make a 8/8 party. But with the right list of people, that's hardly a problem.

A great majority of the Chinese high levels in my server (and most likely others as well) constantly rely on Euros to keep them alive. Whether it be Cleric buffs or Warrior screens, most Chinese players will beg Euros non-stop for buffs. So much for being strong alone.

Grinding wise, I highly prefer Euro parties than Chinese Solo leveling. I enjoy interacting with people while I grind and it's fun when things get really hectic while party grinding. (i.e bunch of giant party mobs appear out of nowhere XD)

So it's just personal preference, but I don't think I'll ever play another Chinese character ever again. Just not my thing.

Chinese have more skills to use. Something about having to wait 40 levels for a wizard to get a new attack after he levels to 20 seems wrong =\

Wrong.

You sound exactly like the dumb shitbrain bots in our server. All they do is moan about 1v1 man 1v1, when you beat them with buffs or 2v2 or 2v1 or XvX. Then you take off your cleric buffs, one dare devil them and get a massive crit of 10k+ and they drop, they still moan about 1v1. Doesn't matter if you can beat someone 1v1, if someone has more friends than you and they all group up to kill you and you die 50 times in one pvp session, you aren't very strong are you? It doesn't matter if you own 1v1's if a guy walks up with a full euro pvp party you're farked, i don't care who you are

Euro or Chinese it's the same. There are a couple of builds that I don't like to play like chinese bower or euro warlock. Preferences for full str builds.

Whatever. Bard/cleric can solo quite well, rogue is made for soloing with DD or CE, wiz is quite good although they die often.

A range of skills and strengths and weaknesses. Just like Chinese chars, only with a pot delay :) oh, and many more useful buffs.

Off topic...I cannot COUNT the times I used to go out to get plvled (when I couldn't find anyone in the union) and first thing they ask me is "boffs", "buffs pls", "what lvl res", "moving march plz"

A lot of the time, it's the Chinese characters asking. Heck, even when I'm just PvPing and everyone notices I'm a cleric, it's tons of pm's asking for buffs, etc. I bet bards get the same type of pm's.
If faith is a crutch, I'm not limping anymore.

Chinese, much more reliable on 1vs1..sure euros have skins/bless that just means they can't die fore 90 sec. I can stay alive longer then that with or without crits. I just don't like the pot delay and without using skins/bless they will most likely die on the 1st few sec of pvp...thats why almost every euro starts pvp with either bless/skins

no kidding rogue bard grinding speeds are beast, hard to say wither wiz bard's aoe makes it faster or is that counteracted by the fact the rogue can kill a giant

people say chinese have to solo, but almost full chinese parties are good too (a bard or cleric added in) and they grind party style too not as good as a euro party but 10 times better then solo.

Problem is, chinese are useually too used to solo, or botting to be able to handle teamwork. Its a different kind of teamwork where each member is more self reliant, but it still works well, only problem is with out a buffer the potions go by crazy fast

well before the euro update i had a chinese lvl41,glavie user and was grinding at bunwhang
had no ticket and had a gap, so you can see how hard it was, and was thinking of quitting.
Then i when i heard bout euro i got excited b/c i would be in many parties and would be able
to chat with ppl rather than grind by myself. :(

What are you talking about . .
When I played my level 80 Glavier I had F1 for Heuk, F2 for buffs.

Now that I have my rogue / cleric, I can't even fit all my skills on the skillbars.
F1 daggers
F2 main cleric buffs
F3 xbow
F4 overheal.. other rogue and cleric skills, pots.

and I solo pvp all the time, +5 set and weapons.. I win most vs chinese also.
Euro is just more fun, in almost every aspect.

yeah but eny china build can buff its self can eny euro build by itself?
NO
sides what if i nice little full str bow with force vital spots all your nice little buffs away? and then crits you to hell before you can even catch him? then when you get close he just phantoms away and crits some more.

i like chineese more probly for the look at there better at jobbing cuz with no pot delay you can easily kill your own theifs no problem.
but euro offers a different game play experience.
