Silkroad
i've heard alot of people call it a "Poor mans WoW" because the game is free, and it SORTA lays like WoW. theres some aspects that are similiar, but i actually find myself enjoying Silkroad MUCH more the WoW, i actually started playing WoW and i got to level 11. and got bored so i quit and picked up Silkroad again. i highly encourage you to check it out. its a free downloadable desktop game. nothing cheap looking about it.
Its based around Mythic China, with monsters, Bandits, tigers Oh my :o but there are over some thing like 100 enemies? and a TON of players to meet. its a very full enviroment to meet people, party up and take down big badies. if youd like i'll post some links to some pictures :3 http://www.gameogre.com/reviewdirect...d%20Online.jpg http://www.programujte.com/galerie/2...ilkroad_02.jpg http://www.1t1t.com/silkroad/jietu/images/24.jpg (Korean Versian pic) http://www.gameogre.com/silkroad1.jpg http://img449.imageshack.us/img449/3733/screen57ba.jpg customize your character. and have fun :3 this game is never ending. i hope you can try this game and thoroughly enjoy it like i have :3 |
What server do you play on? :o I'm to be found on Sparta.
|
I play on Troy D: but i decided to make a new character on troy so i can give myself all the lvl 22 SoS armor xD either to sell or keep for later :3 but i think i could make a character there :3
|
Psh. I'm level 1. It'll be easier if I change. :P
|
oh lmao xD i thought you've BEEN playing it xD. yeah switch to troy :3 btw, i know tricks how to get on the server even when its full. so just ask me and i can help yuh out :3 cuz its usually fullest in the mornings
|
hee hee. Got two characters on there now. =3 If you ever want n00bish me to tag along, keep an eye open for Si_Xian or Yongjing

I've played this game in bursts... but I always seem to quit when I get around lvl 18.
I also read how nowadays just about everyone follows cookiecutter builds, and those who don't are often looked down upon... and really, who wants to join a game with that kind of player-base? Also, throughout the entire experience, the only player interaction I have is when someone sends a random party invite... how lame is that? I figure if I ever get over lvl 20, I'll become a thief so I can kill them all :lol: Still a fun game. Would be funner if the players had a soul :? |

Meh, I get yelled at for not following cookie-cutter builds on Guild Wars enough, so I'll be juuuust fine at ignoring them. 8D
@Kako- heh heh. No problem. My fighter's nearly there. My planned magic user, though.... not so much. |
I was pullin' a pure int bow user... but I read a post on how they were the worst... and it wouldn't even tell me why, it just said "I will just assume you know why not to go pure int+bow"
...and it's crap like that which makes me not want to play. :roll: |
I'd go for it anyways. Screw what other people think! I'm there to have fun, dern it. Not to appease the other players.

@Alegretto there rly isnt "magic" in the game. they count as skills. just some reasonable advice from an experienced player? i wouldnt buy too many skillz whe your firststart out. i'de buy just the element weapon attack skill, and then work with that? it'll help you out later on. not telling yuh what to do xD just a suggestion :3 |
I started a char on Sparta today... a sword user with fire+lightning magic.
Hybrid stat build instead of a PureNub :) It's actually fun :P |
Quote:
also, they're good in pve, but I'm not so sure about the pvp aspect of the game... I think the cookiecutter Pureint Fireglavie still 'pwns' in that aspect. I'm hoping my hybrid build will teach them all a lesson though :P |
Quote:
But like I said, I ignore my magical skillz guy. My fighter is too fun. |

I'm serious... the amount of damage added by one of the 5sec. spells is phenomenal... I had my hybrid take fire and lighting because they both have buffs... one gives +% to magic attack, while the other gives +% to physical attack. |

Personally, I switch between the fire 5sec and the lightning 5sec just for variety, and because their damage output has such a minimal difference between them. But if you want maximum damage with the least amount of points spent on force powers, just stick five in fire, and get the first rank of the first spell. If you decide it's worth more, then you can just put more points into it at higher levels. |

Good thing I have like... 15 spare skill points. |
You know how to farm SP, right? :P
|
By... killing things? =D;;; I'm such a n00b at this. Maybe I should read the rules and stuff before playing...
|
it's really not in the rules...
The whole thing about SP farming is... the higher your level is in relation the the highest level skill you have, the more SP and the less EXP you get. So, let's say... for example... your highest level skill is Fire, and it's at a skill level of 5... but your character is at level 11. The amount of SP points received per kill would be far greater than if you had a Fire skill of 11. However, this also means you gain less EXP... so it's harder to get to higher levels to gain even more SP.... so really, it's all about patience and dedication to the task. The highest difference between level and skill level you can have is 9... or at least, that's the greatest difference you can have that is pointful... and I think that if your level is 9 above your skill level, you gain only 10% exp, but earn somewhere along the lines of 2000% of your normal SP gains :lol: |
I'll tell yuh what. once you both get to about level 10-15 ? just keep leveling and dont spend ANY SP, it'll help later on. all i want you to buy s the 5 second elemental damage attack bonus. Ice skill preferabley. becuz that also pwns when you get higher levels. depengin what levels you are there are different enemy's yuo should be fighting. ask people around the place and get some advice. also if you can. please switch to Tory instead of sparta. so i'll be able to help you and maybe powerlevel you later on :3 also, stay away from buying the pvp scarfs xD they'll eat you up as soon as you walk outside of the city. dont buy too much armor. just buy the armor when you hit the level you can. but dont worry about gaaping levels for armor. as long as you killing your enemy's qwuick it doesnt matter too much. keep stocked high on Magic pots and Health pots. and hotkey everything! also DONT FORGET TO TURN ON AUTO POTS it'll save you lif :3 i went through more than half the game without auto potting, and everyonewas like "How did you live?!?!?" lol xD
