alZen wrote:euro was a good addition to the game which before that was at the risk of consolidating to just a few common chinese builds, pure str glaive/fire and pure int sword/fire. euro threw in more variety and together with the skills update, made many players experiment with more different builds, which makes the game a lot more interesting.


pros:
bigger variety for choosing chars
Party übermensch, Parties are more advanced and provide more advantages
easy lvling
high damage
not much need of farming
not appropriate for botting

contras:
pot delay
overpowered compared to chinese chars

I for my piece don't like them that much, they should've powered the chinese up too
while they were at it

to put it in a more simple way, people who own euro charachters will think that euro update was the best update, others will think otherwise
personally i think euro/pfarming/plvling ruined the game. Autoshare grinding is fun, but not the plvling type
I don't hate euro coz they pwn me, coz they dont. I hate euro as they ruined the good ol' job wars
job wars were pretty much about gang attack and how many players u can tank, but u cant really tank being ganged by 2 wizards for instance, or a mix of chinese/euro, or even pure chinese charachters with bard buffs and the buffer is standing in the safe zone !
and there is this part of unjobbed ressers/healers too

Me.

Eventhough I love playing warriors, I think the game was far better off without euros.

I see alot of people quitting their chinese chars in the future. And euro vs euro pvp is boring compared to chinese.

I Love My Rogue, I really do

BUT it would be a dream to have an all chinese cap again.

IMO: euros should not exist. Another thing I noticed, alot of the younger immature players make lvl 80 rogues, 1 skill you and talk mad sensless shit... not saying that young people shouldn't play the game, on the contrary, but what im trying to get across is that having a euro requiers no serious skill.

Whats the fun of a game when you have a win button to automatically press...

lul, I expect people to get a very rude awakening at 90 cap when they notice how big of a deal the pot delay is for Europeans. Joymax is literally forcing people to team up better, there are only two flaws with Europe:

Joymax planned to have a level limit on parties in Isro and planned a 20 second potion delay. On the official forum there was ONE, yes ONE thread that asked to reduce the delay to like 10. Joymax compromised and made it 15, I think while they were doing that they accidentally scrapped the level limit and cba to re-add it XD.

It was: In an X/8 party you cannot party with anyone more than 5 levels above you and anyone less that 5 levels below you. EX:

Say you're level 25, well you can only party with people between level 20 - 30. And I think as people are added to the party the average level becomes the point from which 5+ or 5- is counted from, say you have 7 people in your party:

    25
    23
    21
    27
    25
    28
    29

Between what levels can the last person be?
Well take the average: (25+23+21+27+25+28+29)/7 = 25.4
The last player can be between 20 and 30. You can try skewing the numbers to attempt a P-lvl but skewing it up may cause someone to be kicked: Ex:

Note: All numbers are rounded:

a level 25 in a party adds a level 30. The average is now 28, so the next player can be between: 23 and 33, so you add a level 33. The new average is now 29 so the next player can be between level 24 and 34, so you add a level 34: The new average level is 31, and that means the max level you can have is 36 and the min is 26. The 25 is kicked and that changes the average to: 32 which means the min level is 27 and the max is 37. In other words simply making that system would prevent any attempt to get pwrlvled.

@KneeGrow, having a decent party requires skill. Getting power leveled to 80 doesn't. It isn't the euro culture that ruined the game. What ruined the game more is/was the deletion of the anti-power level part.

No euros? Those endless jobwars? The return of the pot wars?

No thanks.
Its because of euros that im still playing sro, if you are smart enough you can beat euros. As i said before in another thread, i find really funny how some people say euros sucks and others say they are overpowered, crybabies will always have a reason to complain.
Euros are as important as chineses, old days will never be back. Deal with that.

Not true. There are several people on my server that I haven't beaten once.. they outplay me each time I pvp them.

I don't really care about Euro characters much. They do make pvp more interesting, though. However, I wish the Euro pot delay was back at 30 sec. At 30 secs, most Euro chars had to party to level or kill green mobs. Now Euros are no longer party characters. All of them are just as good if not better at soloing in PvE and PvP than Chinese characters.

It would be nice if they had separate servers for different races...

But I can't say I hate the euro race, being in a FULLY functional European party feels so right.

to me that just sounds like they know your fighting style and know when to fire off a nuke or two. That's just being smart, nothing to do with skills.

Barotix is a great mod because he's so smart :)

Yeah, just you euro lovers wait, when the 90 cap comes, your advantage is going to be severely decreased, and totally disappear with the 100 cap.

Although I'd like to fix one error on your part (though this might be an error on my part): I believe the original pot delay was actually 30 seconds. I was playing ksro at the time, and the update came, I was suddenly able to tank giants with my wizard solo! I was a happy camper.
The pill delay was also originally 10 seconds I believe, but now it's just 1 second.

So we had advantage? lol the only thing decreasing with higher caps is the max number of masteries for chineses :roll:
I have my doubts about how good will be the european race against chineses at cap 90, im sure things will be harder but we cant be sure about how big will be the advantage chineses will get at cap 90. One thing is sure, euros will stick together even more at this cap, im expecting harder pvp´s against chineses.

the unsuited clerics are really annoying and they need to make it imposssible for unsuited aide, they tried to fix it by making people unable to party with people not in matching job status, how ever people have all these clerics with them now that you have to get murderer status to get rid of.
