Its been a few months since 90 cap...your thoughts??

Post by Fury »

I got the idea to make this topic because 90cap has completely ruined my sro experience..and i was curious what other people thought. Since 90 cap, our union has gone downhill, and will probably die soon. All the main leaders of the union left the game and its just not the same anymore. There aren't any job wars, cap wars, trades or anything in our union..just boring. So yeah..this cap has been the worst for me so far.

How has 90 cap treated you?

i quit
the first week was cool but after that its the same thing all over again.
also, everyone quit now that summers gone, it was nice playing with friends at like 4am and stuff, now theres no time for it.
Also, the only ones still playing this game are either 15 yrs old and have nothing else to do, or are botters. No one in their right mind should be playing this anymore, just let it go to hell already.

I have noticed with 90 cap, that it is such a hard grind to get to it even from 80, that it really drains the energy for playing from the legits, that once they hit 90, most take a long break and it does ruin a bit of the gameplay simply because my friends aren't on as much. I can't even imagine what it'll be like to grind from 90 ->100 at next cap. :banghead:

90 is stupid. the higher the cap, the more new players are turned off from even attempting to play legit.

everyone that played in the 60/70 cap, just imagin what the game would of been like with FW and CTF back then.

got to level 88 in a month of party grinding with my guild. got bored. still level 88 and dont plan on going any higher for now. maybe if i had a chest or necklace to look forward to i would cap, but with a .00000001% chance ill get one from saytan, no point in going any higher.

90 cap is just epic fail. atleast the pvp does not suck like 80 cap.

Still epic lols at the people who still say the euro update ruined the game (nostalgia much?)...

Getting to Lv90 is a hard grind sometimes; as Fly put, more and more people are put off from playing legitimately as the cap raises. They feel that the ONLY way to cap is to bot or get plvled. I find it funny that through all of the caps; 70, 80, and now 90, that it's the 90cap which I am so close to FINALLY capping before the cap is raised, lol.

However, I've both liked and disliked the release of 90cap. The lowered chance of actually getting a Lv89 and Lv90 chest from Shaitan and his spawns is somewhat of a letdown seeing as only through Shaitan and his spawns are you capable of getting Lv89~Lv90 drops. Even then, it's a rarity that the drops will NOT be RI (repair invalid); I've gotten several drops from shaitan that were RI, few Lv90 chests too '~,~. However, at the same time it's somewhat invigorating to see if you'll get anything from Shaitan that could be of use (conflicting statements I know, but I don't really care to make much sense right now).

Pvp is somewhat more fun, however, the only fun and worth-while pvp I've found was group fights between union/those within our confederation and the outside guilds/unions (Group pvp is far more fun than 1on1). Just wish the bots on Venus were slightly more challenging; kinda sad when 1 underfarmed and farming tank with PoS 1st tier 9deg gears with just 1 capped cleric can take on 3 Lv90 chinese chars and win ( :love: :love: Gracecakes!, lol).

Overall, a new area, new mobs, and new gears have kept my interest in this game. More than a year of Taklamakan and sand in the crack was gettin' old ^,^ (Green, lush areas was a much needed change).

I think this cap is the worst too, but its just because how much joymax sucks and keeping the game cheat free, if there was no bots and shit I think it's be awesome still, I like the earlier caps pretty much just cus there wasn't many, and there no capped full sun retards. If we had higher lvls and skills and all the stuff we do now back thne without bots then yea that would rock. They need to start doing some major bans otherwise its only private servers I have to look forward to for Really ever playing sro again.

I stopped my STR ice bow at level 69 at 70 cap (never used silk, probably never will). I was actually close to being capped, and I was competitive as far as jobbing and PvP was concerned, even though I was underfarmed (Level 69 Pacheon, Level 65 Cold, Level 32 fire & light) and not well geared. I own an 8x account, but now, I'm nowhere near capping, and I just can't grind with these EXP rates above level 80, without silk. I can do close to nothing compared to level 90 players, so that's pretty much why I've practically stopped playing.

another level for really committed people / bots = win imo
yeah it takes a long time to grind.. but i wouldn't have it any other way.. otherwise i would get bored. Being a euro i can only really level if i have parties, which i do so i'm happy.

i can't wait for chin tombs...

Honestly, I'm a bit over it. All the Turks just bot their way to 90, and of course it takes me forever to get there, So when I pvp they kill me (the usual).

They'll just have to wait.
