Silkroad Fun ?
I know most of you guys would disagree with me, but I don't car this thread is for the lulz. Anyways I recently got a level 95 bower in Ares. So I went to Jangan Cave to go grind. When I was grinding I didn't noticed that I grinded for 3 hours when it felt like 3 minutes. I think Silkroad is more fun when you are higher level and when you aren't surrounded by goldbots. So for all you low levels STOP WHINING ABOUT GOLDBOTS AND TRAFFIC AND GO LEVEL UP!! Thanks for your time

Meh. If you have a good party at any level, you won't notice the time pass at all.

SP farming is a huge issue in lvling. You're never going to have enough.
And it is really hard to find an 8-man on my server.

Re: Silkroad Fun ?
3 hours with 5% is very very fast.
Full party 8 people with 95+ fighting 99 monsters only, a level 99 with 0 gap (with no ticket) may get between 0.25% to 0.45% per hour depending on how fast the mobs spawn in that area. With 9 gaps, 0.03% per hour and if you die even once in that hour, you would even get negative exp. Silkroad requires too much exp/sp, I have send couple of suggestion letters to Joymax but they still haven't implementing lowering the exp/sp requirement even though they actually have listened to my other ideas like promoting more group work game play (like @110 party play), the GM event, the new hackshield system currently is effective against goldbots to free traffic, etc...
In the future, I believe Joymax would exploit all the addicts in game to buy even more silk by doing the following:
-Selling SP (100, 500, 1000, 5k, 50k, 500k, 1 mil) via magic pop.
-Selling rare stuffs like advanced elixirs, SOX via magic pop.
(remember, it is not the more ticket you use, the higher chance you will get, every ticket to win an item there has its set probability and every trial you run is INDEPENDENT of all other trial, so regardless you spend 1 ticket or 1000 tickets, ur 2nd trial or 1001th trial still has the same probability of winning even though our perception may differs from this. I wouuld like to explain more on this if anyone interested in probability theory)
-Delete auto-potion and force legit players to pay for an premium item called "auto-potion ticket". (speculation, if this is implemented, silkroad will be complete botroad)
-Delete X-large potion and sell it via premium tickets (should will do @ cap 110)
-Make more events in which you buy more silk to buy more premium items in order to participate in the event (already did)
-Many more other tricks

.... so you get a high lvl char. and all of a sudden start bitching at all the lower level people? and you go and play with the character for the first time for 3 hours (thats new skills, new mobs, everything new and find it fun). but what you haven't done, like the rest of us, is sit there, and lvl a character up, or sit there at lvl 97/98/99/100 for 3 hours at a time only getting 1% in 3 hours... you haven't sat there for days on end killing the same monster, with the same skills, in the same place, for hours at a time. you've done it for 3 hours... doesn't matter what level you are, you're still sitting there for hours at a time watching a green bare barely move up...

You should think of it again.
Which one is the killer? Is it Silkroad or college?

I really have no clue why people keep comparing SRO and legitness to real life. Please enlighten me.
