Preview of the endgame blades

Fly · Post by **Fly** » Sat Jul 07, 2007 12:29 am

The sword dance series icons each have a blade on them. The image of the blade is 99% accurate to what it looks like in game.

here are the 2 low degree blades. i put them in here to show that the icons are indeed accurate.

this is the 9th degree blade. it looks exactly like the icon in game.

there u go. 10th and 11th or 12th degree blades. enjoy.

yeah it does, but since all the orther icons have been blades, i assume its a blade as well untill proven otherwise.

ps: the new stabs for bladers have a crit inrease just like anti-devil. w00t. good news for all bladers.

Omg if that's for real it's saying a level 120 skill/mastery is going to cost 272724 sp each... what kinda sp are you supposed to farm to even have any of these skills, seriously like 100 million sp farmed, it's insane.

To farm 700,000 for a level 90 build seems like a bad dream but that is just sickening lol

Fly · Post by **Fly** » Sat Jul 07, 2007 12:53 am

leveling from 1-80 with a 0 gap gives u the sp u need to max out 1 tree fully.

keeping a 2 gap from 1-80 gives u the sp u need to max out 2 trees fully. with a 120 cap, u got 120-120-60 as ur masteries. if 1 skill costs 200k, getting a 3rd mastery to 60 will take about.... 5 days of farming.

so, plan on 2 masteries and leave a 3rd at 60 and you will never have sp problems.

I wonder why the sp needed jumps up so drastically though, it suddenly jumps from 10k to 50k at lvl 95 and lvl 109 jumps from 100k to 200k.

10k each is bad enough.

JM wants this game to last a lifetime I think, we're supposed to pass on our accounts through our ancestors on a crazy 1000 year journey

You're wrong. The first icon is snake sword dance is a sword because there isn't a blade with that look. I believe that's the 5th degree sword.

To me there is 2 possibilities. THat pic looks like the 4th degree general blade in shape, but not colour. The pic also looks like a 5th degree sword cut off. So its hard to tell

And yes the 10th one looks like a sword to me.

nah...look closely, it looks like general blade (4d)

1st book = general blade (4th deg)
2nd book = python blade (6th deg)
3rd book = 9th degree blade

4th book = a big 2 edged blade on a hiltless handle
5th book = a big black, purple, red blade that gives u demonic powers

thnx fly for the site...

Wow look at this one, 250k sp each for an extra 1% of speed, all the way up to 100% grasswalk.

I think a 120 cap is rediculous let alone a 150 if that's the plan, they should just leave it at 90 or maybe 100... cuz nobody legit or even not legit is gonna get any of those lvl 120 skills, it would take weeks just to get 1.

It would ever work if:

1/ The exp needed per lvl also went up to an extremely stupid amount, like 5 billion each.

2/ It's implemented where you can farm sp together as a group.

I dont think the general blade has a gold colour like in that pic. I didnt even notice the resemblance to a cut of 5th degree sword til cool2fool pointed it out. Look at the pic, to me it looks like their is symbols on the blade or sword. Just like the 5th deg one.

with current exp/ sp exp rate, for taking one skill=200k sp will take like 2-4 month at least of farming, that's ridicolous

Fly · Post by **Fly** » Sat Jul 07, 2007 1:21 am

so far the only confirmed numbers for the cap is either 120, which is the cap for skills. or 140, which is the cap for the hp/mp formula and sp mastery requirements along with the end of 12th degree gear.

they might ditch the 12th degree and go with a 120 cap. release heaven for 90-100 and budda world for 100-120.

im hoping for the 120 cap to be final. i dont want to see 20 levels with no new skills and billions of exp needed. plus a 120 cap means u can keep grasswalk with a str char. a 140 cap means no grasswalk or phantom for str builds.

Uh, the icons (in the first post) are a mixture of blades and swords. The two new icons are the sword (first) and blade (second). Whether the new blade and sword will actualyl look like these is just speculation.

I can't see any of the 81 - 120 stuff anymore, have they been removed?

Yeah definately, NOBODY will play this game if it's gonna be 250k sp a skill, no reason for jump up like it seemed to, it would have been better to keep increasing it at a steady rate.

Maybe it's just a bad joke, who'd have thought all this 100+ stuff would even exist yet.

They had already done something like this but few people notice that. To get lvl62 skills you need 813 SP and to get lvl63 you need 856 (just 43 Sp increment), but then to get lvl64 skills you need 1079(223 increment), lvl65 1358 (279 increment) and then they return to normality with 1420 SP for lvl66 skills ( 62 increment). So there is big jump on SP requirement when you star to use D8 gear (xp has the same jump than sp).
