Grinding:
1. new mob implemented (called party mob), it has 8 times more hp and exp than regular mob and require party to kill...Euro require alot of party lvl-ing up...solo grinding is near impossible aft lvl 15
2. the lvl-ing party usually shld consist of cleric (main damager), tanker warrior (tank, attract mob + protect cleric/healer) and healer (heal)

the other builds/jobs i m nt too sure abt it, poets (using harp) mainly gives AOE status like mag/phy absorb, speed etc bonus, 术士 is similar to cleric (but less dmg and more status like phy def reduction and poisoning), 浪人(use dagger) is more similar to tanker warrior but less hp but more dmg

Fri Noon 12pm count down...2 and half more days to go !

Time to take a break from ksro and try out csro

Now for the new trading system update:

1) It's just talking about how you can do 1 to 5 stars of trade and etc etc.

2) Here's where it gets interesting.

In this update there's a major change to the party system.

- A person who is currently in job suit cannot party with non-jobbing character
In another words, u can't party someone who's not wearing job suit if u are wearing a job suit.

- Trader/Hunter cannot party with theives

- While ur in a party, u cannot take off ur job suit.

Ah, and this part, is in my opinion, a great addition.

- When selling trade goods, for each additional person in party, there will be bonus job xp given. (when the trade is successful, obviously)

- When someone in party kills someone of opposing job, for each additonal person in party, there will be bonus job xp given.

- When the trader successfully completes the trade run, and sells off the goods, the hunter will be given money for his work.

- For each additonal person in party, there will be bonus MONEY made for a successful trade.

3) Trade posts.

As you can see, there are 7.

Right now, in iSRO there are 3, one for each of the towns, in the picture, 1, 3, and 5
I believe should be obvious. (its jangan, donwhang, and hotan in that order)

2, 4, 6, 7 are the new outposts that are going to be created in this update.

Simply put, these act almost similar to the trade posts already in the towns. A trader
could buy/sell goods here. However, in order for a trader to use these posts,
he must have completed a quest that corresponds to each of these.

2 = lvl 20+

4 = lvl 30+

6 = lvl 60+

7 = lvl 70+

The quest npcs are located at the same trading post spot.

4) This is just talking about the new way of purchasing goods.

As you can see, using the window, u can purchase the amount u wish with only 1 click, instead of clicking 99999 times

the first field is for amount of goods, 2nd field shows the money required, or u can
select the trade good size (stars? not too sure bout this) and it'll auto buy accordingly.

5) Now you all know that there are theif npcs that spawn when doing trade runs, or
when ur a theif with goods inside caravan.

In this new update, there will be theif npcs as well as HUNTER npcs.

For traders, theif npcs will spawn.
For theives, hunter npcs will spawn .

Now HERE'S WHERE IT GETS INTERESTING.

Previously, a npc theif will attack anyone nearby, this includes ANYONE.
Which means u can technically kill others that are not even wearing job suit.
(if u let ur npc theif and that person unfortunately finds it)
Also anyone (even jobless) people may attack npc theives, and npc theives
will attack them back.

This whole new update changes that all!

Normal Character(jobless) = Cannot attack or be attacked by theif/hunter npc.

Theif npc = Can only attack trader and hunter characters.

Hunter npc = Can only attack theif characters.

Trader/Hunter characters = cannot attack hunter npc.

Thief character = cannot attack theif npc.

6) Talks about caravan summoning here.

- Traders and Theives can only summon caravans.

- Thieves cannot summon a caravan inside of the town, nor could they bring
one into town

- Any character that has a summoned transport can not use any type of return scrolls.

7) This part is just about how they are going to reset every job items out there, and
refund it all in game gold. (goods, etc)

@user

gonna use Wong's hybrid nuker guide, 30sec cool down is a LONG time when you are in a fight

u gonna play chinese char? lol thats so boring already...try Euro man, but its recommended for those who can type chinese cuz Euro char require ALOT of communication wif party members in level-ing up

Posted: **Wed May 30, 2007 4:28 am**

its all about survability to me, no point of wasting time on a char that is aint gonna do good in pvp

we are doing about chinese gamers, they have absolutely no life, they are proz, aint some pure-int-archer noob

Posted: **Wed May 30, 2007 4:35 am**

all at least half of the chinese gamers hv lvl 80-90 chinese char...they are bored wif it so they juz wanna try Euro...so if u gonna train a cap lvl Chinese char, juz telling u, there are already plenty of them
Unless u play in the 4 new servers which are opened 1st June and u are competing wif those chinese char playing 12 hr a day

Posted: **Wed May 30, 2007 5:00 am**

well, i just see its a huge drawback on euro chars b/c of the 30s pot delay

come play on my server bud 大唐盛世

a/s/l btw?

Posted: **Wed May 30, 2007 5:19 am**

well the purpose of the 30s delay is to make solo grinding impossible and encourage playing in a group instead of solo lvl-ing...

i hv a lvl 27 pure fire str glaive on 开天辟地 div 1 wif ard 2 million (poor yea cuz tis my 1st char in cSRO)
u wun wanna play Euro char in the existing server cuz others can finance their new Euro char wif their old 80-90 Chinese char (no nid worry abt $$ for equipment, weapon, pot)...so wats the pt of playing in the existing servers
haa i gonna try Euro char in 1 of the 4 new servers so at least its fair, every 1 starts wif 0 gold, ya c my point?

2. go trading 1 star lol no npc theif spawns from player thiefs...

Posted: **Wed May 30, 2007 7:44 pm**

Idk, but I never had problem making money. I usually set autopot on hp at 50% and mp 25% and I've never came close to dieing or running out of mp if I fight mobs my lvl on my chinese char (I wear protector by the way). On my euro char hp usually at 75% to 90% and mp at 50% on autopot. I only made like 20k before lvl 25 per grind and after usually 50k, but if I get weapon drops I usually get around 100k or more profit.

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 1:30 am**

wtf, what you do, i am like lvl 17, been gold farming since like ever, i only have like 200k. did you buy gold? before any smart ass thinks he/she is smart, gold buying off the main company is legal

if i happen to buy gold, do u think i will hv only a petty sum of 2 million? usually its $6 renminbi for 10 million gold (i think) and minimum purchase is 10 million...my philosophy happens to be NOT paying real $$ for any games..so yea i dun even have any item mall things lk monkey all that in iSRO nor cSRO...
1 tip for being rich fast: pray for elix drops, weapon elix is 450k, shield/acc elix 80k and protector elix 200-230k...i gt 3 or 4 weap elix, and a few other elix drops along the way...so yea 2 million isnt that big deal
i do stall my equipment drops, element makes little $$ and no 1 buys wind 2...but wind 1 is often requested by some high lvl players

when i am reading is that you'll need a bunch guys to help you do trade

in Euro, 1 star popping will no longer exist cuz thief will spawn hunter NPC which will attack thief only...so 1 star trade u can go solo
multi star u may need 2 hire hunter, part of ur profit will be distributed automatically to hunter

A person who is currently in job suit cannot party with non-jobbing character
In another words, u can't party someone who's not wearing job suit if u are wearing a job suit.

- Trader/Hunter cannot party with theives

- While ur in a party, u cannot take off ur job suit.

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 2:39 am**

Ya being a hunter isn't very profitable, I use to do it in my old server and you don't make much money unless you do a 3-5* Trade. How much money you make is depends how much hunter exp points you get from trade. Well thats how it is in ksro, don't know about csro.
*Hunter Exp Ponts=Money Earned (Thats what npc pays you when the trader sell his/her goods in another town)
More ppl you have in party, more bonus exp you so more money you earn
I'm going to be merchant until lvl 81 then switch over to being a hunter and participate in the mass theif/hunter wars every weekend

.

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 2:50 am**

I'm going to be merchant until lvl 81

okie..gd luck grinding to lvl 81...

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 8:00 am**

good work man, i like the effort you put in. I have 40 mins on my download left and my account registered. I'm planning on dling euro tonight so i have it for tomorow. I'm planning on making a pure str glavie would that still fit ok for cSRO? thanks.

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 8:11 am**

pure str glaive is always fitting lol..
i hv 1 myself lvl 27 on cSRO
i recommend u do try out Euro char (mayb u will find it fun, who knows)
but i suggest u play the Euro char 1-2 day aft 1st June so those play since 1st June will stall their drops and provide u wif all the weap/equipment u need
if u play Euro 1st June (which is wat i m gonna do :twisted:

) , most likely u will use NPC gear almost all the time

but i hv tis feeling that the drop rate, especially for SOX, will be high for those who play on the open beta day as a bonus....haha just a guess, no proof so dun tk me 4 that

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 8:16 am**

Aha yes, can i still make a chinese character until tomorow to play? Yes i think i may make a str glavie ^^. Btw for euro i was thinking warrior would that be any good? I also heard about changing gold to silk and 900% party exp bonus is this true?. Thanks.

lol if u were 2 play Chinese char den u shldnt hv installed the Euro client yet... u can play using the old cSRO until 31st May 10pm and then install the Euro client and start playing on 1st June 12pm...ur chinese char will not b affected by the Euro update, item, gold, lvl skills of ur existing chinese char will not be changed at all

changing gold to silk? nv heard of that...900% party exp bonus is true, but in exp auto share party only, so if 8 person party , the exp bonus will be 900%/8
Warrior hmm...double axe(less dmg than double sword but higher attack speed) has a lot of negative feedback fr those played in closed beta...double sword and sword shield is gd i heard
i din play in closed beta at all so everything is based on other ppl's opinion and assumption...

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 9:03 am**

So wait, if i install euro now, i cannot play the chinese one? Or can you play both. i am installing cSRO now and 3 hours left on europe dl. Thinking of going sword / shield warrior. Also i guess the 8 people auto share means you have to be next to each other for the exp too count? Oh and if i hexedit so that ingame chat will be english does that mean quests, skills and NPC etc?

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 9:41 am**

if i install euro now, i cannot play the chinese one?

yes..my post of Euro client dl there i said "NOTE: blah blah blah" ... if u install Euro now, u cannot play until they fin updating Euro on 1st June
cSRO will be down fr 31 May 10pm - 1st June 12pm for weekly inspection + the Euro update final preparation.. that is China Beijing time
here is the announcement for that
为迎接即将震撼公测的《丝路传说—罗马远征》，将所有的服务器进行版本更新，原定5月30日的服务器维护推迟到5月31日10：00进行。所有服务器在5月31日10：00进入版本更新阶段，开放时间为6月1日12：00。请玩家注意调节好自己的时间，避免给造成不必要的损失。

Also i guess the 8 people auto share means you have to be next to each other for the exp too count

yes...but the radius of the exp auto share party has been increased by quite abit so its better now , anyway a Euro lvl-ing party has 2 be near 2 one another cuz all the members should be killing the same group/mob at any 1 time...thats the correct way of a lvling exp auto share party is

Oh and if i hexedit so that ingame chat will be english does that mean quests, skills and NPC etc?

cant help u on this cuz i din hexedit anything ( from Hong Kong so i can read/type Chinese )...mayb look into hexedit threads?

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 11:42 am**

Just a quick question, i got all my translation hexing working and languages installed but all i see is this when i run it. My euro is not installed but my cSRO is.

After double clicking on divison one, I get this...

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 12:47 pm**

Ok now i have a ping, now its saying this even tho i have the client installed, this is not the euro client.

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 1:21 pm**

ok u hv 2 install Euro now to enter the game...i duno why mayb the GM gt fcked...i cannot enter the game using the old cSRO client too
so i install Euro...updated to version 1.103 and enter the game, but the server list is empty...guess hv to wait until 1st June 12pm???
din the GM said the inspection is only 31st May 10pm? why we cant play it now? i duno why either

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 1:41 pm**

ok man thanks for your help , my euro client is on 53%. It will be done in a few hours.

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 4:18 pm**

euro is already out since china is 12 hours ahead of us in north america so now it's noon for me on may 31 while it's midnight on june 1 for china

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 6:18 pm**

ok now my dl is back on, roughly 2 hours left for EU. Hoping once i have that installed i can play. Not sure whether to make euro or normal tho.

Posted: **Thu May 31, 2007 6:28 pm**

TehSmithy wrote:Not sure whether to make euro or normal tho.

yeah, euro characters need a lot of teamwork and party, so if you can't find a good party, it would be hard for you to level.

of course chinese equipments look better.
