Realm of the mad god

Does "Shivering Isles" ring any bells?? I'm sure it's a great game, but I think they're stealing someone else's idea.

I immediately thought of it but using a common adjective to modify a common noun doesn't make it similar to the same combination in another game. Past the name, it has no similarities to any other games I know of

@vonFielder, how does this have anything to do with Oblivion whatsoever?

He's reffering the Oblivion expansion Shivering Isles, which takes place in the realm of a mad god. Cause that totally makes them the same game right?

I didn't say that they were the same game. I find it very convenient that this game came out shortly after Shivering Isles was released.
 
They are about as far from similar as possible. One is a big budget RPG, and the other is an online hack and slash. The resemblance to Shivering Isles itself is just not there, nor does the mad god resemble the Oblivion one. There's really nothing similar at all, any semblance of story is just a cover-up for the fact that its purely an arcade game.

Hmm, yes. Very convenient. I'll bring this up at my next NWO meeting. I think you may have saved the world from another attempt at nuclear holocaust!
 
So which classes are the best and which ones suck overall? The archer is definitely my favorite so far, but I don't know how good the huntress is in comparison
 
Well, if you are stuck between archer and huntress, go with huntress. Spamming the starter trap is a lot better than quivers. Quivers are probably the worst ability items. As for the other classes, it's mainly preference. If you like to go melee, you should be warrior or knight. If you want to long range, then archer, huntress, wizard, or necro will do.
 
This game makes me sad :( Died as a wizard at level 19 because of freaking lag... :aswdufcohasdchoasdvhsvhofh;do;chaco;cvh;paevbosd

and i had the best spell too asdfcoasdvcahervulahb (sorry reach)
 
Yeah, everyone dies at some point, but I've found little to no problems with the lag.

So I'm absolutely loving playing as a huntress. Apparently archers are actually better thanks to the quiver Dex boost but I use the trap ability quite a bit and it's so much better than the quiver ability that it makes up for it in my opinion.

Of course I'm not a super hardcore player though
 
New topic of discussion: Build 111

After weeks of build up I assume that it will be released in the very near future, it was supposed to be released last week but whatever. There is one confirmed new class: Mystic.

The Mystic will wear robes, use wands, and the ability will be a blast that prevents the enemy hit from attacking or moving. But, this will also make them invulnerable to any attacks until the effect wears off. It is sort of like using /pause on a monster. Discuss anything you hear about the new build.

p.s. fire sword being tier 13 is an inside joke.
 
Noooooooooooooo!

L20 huntress (with +1 Atk) died because of that insanely annoying confuse spell. The only other person there, another huntress, bothered to leave all my stuff except my Verdant (but it was clearly the best item I had), even though they already had a Verdant. I kind of wish they had just taken all of my stuff because it feels like such a dick move to me to just take my bow and leave my other equipment

Edit: Nevermind I did lose everything. Now I just have what's left on my mule which turns out to be shit even though I thought it was originally good (a bunch of Dragonscales, Divine Tomes, Divine Seals, and Para HPs)

If anyone is quitting, or has unwanted archer equipment, I'd be glad to take high tier items haha

Edit2: Wow I got L20 on archer which actually is better than huntress and I DIED AGAIN because of lag in sprite world. But I got all of my stuff back, now I really just need higher tier leather armor and a good Def ring

Edit3: DIED AGAIN WHAT THE HELL but of course lag strikes again and I died L19 archer and lost my quiver so I'm really looking forward to having more servers and therefore less lag

So I'm starting to figure everything out. Archers are definitely the best. At first I thought the huntress ability was a lot better but it really isn't. For one, the archer ability item gives up to +5 dex, and the huntess item gives no stat boost. Other than that, the archer item paralyzes enemies when you hit them which really is better than slowing them with a trap, which can still be accomplished by the archer with a low level quiver.

Oh and DON'T USE YOUR BEST EQUIPMENT UNTIL YOU ARE LEVEL 20 WITH A GOOD ROLL AND PROBABLY A FEW STAT POTIONS. Please

Quoted for preserving.

Also today my necro with a great roll died an untimely death. Luckily some bro grabbed all my stuff from my grave and returned it to me, even my wis pot. Using archer now so I don't feel bad about not having every class unlocked :x.

p.s. While leveling travel with small groups of players killing mid level monsters. The players are generally nicer and cooler. I managed to score a free magesteel quiver and verdant bow from 2 of them.
 
Magesteel is great but it's also rather common, however, the Gold Quiver is ungodly rare and not a whole lot better but just like Innocent Blood to Fey, it is better and if you were using it you would notice how it's better, but otherwise it doesn't matter too much.

I like traveling with famous nice people like O and Vulcan, but 97% of the time that they aren't in the lobby they only hunt gods.
 
I started trading stat pots for high items, like elder robe and abyss staff and stuff. There are some autoloot people so soloing for pots is a lot easier to get that stuff.


Also I wouldn't put good gear on something unless they had a beast hp roll and maxed out defense. I have like ~12 def pots on mules right now, waiting for build 111 to play the new class, then I think I'll max out a necro.
 
Agreeing on the solo comment, although playing with a friend is even better because it provides security for dying.

And I felt like I should put this here: If you want to get some potions but don't want to risk a whole lot, either complete Undead Lairs, (because the boss commonly drops Wis pots,) or fight the brain gods and eye gods (because they have easy to dodge attacks compared to other gods like the sprite god while retaining good drops)
 
All the god ones are pretty easy if you get them 1 at a time (sprite god is more annoying though) but you mostly only get attack and def pots, which are pretty common so not many people want them as much as wis/vit/dex. Ghost drops speed which is pretty good. Medusa doesn't drop anything except abyss entrance I hate her.
 
My Rogue died at level 18. I was playing with a party, went into some high-level areas, and drew too much aggro. Then the game lagged and I ended up in a body bag.

Yeah, lag is becoming an increasing problem for me. The only thing you can do in the case of lag is hit F5 immediately. If you wait, the delay might kill you, and the button to go to the lobby in-game works well, but in the case of lag, it doesn't.
 
So I went to the testing server to try out Mystic. It was a let down :(. The status blast is annoying due to the fact that you cant hurt the enemies while they are in it. Also I'm tired of slow robe wearers.
 
man im growing so fast, already over 60 pots!!!!!

and vengeance armor

and robe of moon wizard

and astral staff

and fey bows and archon swords and more shit more shit more shit
