XIV doesn't have a Necromancer and I quit DFO before Necromancer was even announced.

Damn man, you quit a long time ago. I keep forgetting how long this game has been around.

I played for like a few weeks when that NA server came up and hype was at it's highest but ended up quitting due to a friend of mine bailing out on me. I thought of trying the game out a few times since then but I always see complaining and people genuinely mad and not suggesting people to play in some of the DFO threads I've seen.

I might be brainwashed by worst korea but I just like 2D beat-em-ups and DFO is the gift that keeps on giving.

Only classes I haven't liked playing as so far are secret agent and elven knight.

i tried to like him, but he's literally just a shittier and less fun Troubleshooter

Gonna guess that's from the animated intros they did for every f.priest subclass when they got released. Probably check their youtube channel for the videos

Anything with an active playstyle and more depth than using the same two attack and one buff moves like in most MMO's

You're in luck, that's like 80% of the cast here.

sweet

Everybody gets one buff they need to max. But no one is stuck using two skills, every class ends up with a full hotbar they want to be pressing (don't actually press your hotbar, make custom inputs like the cool kids)

>don't actually press your hotbar, make custom inputs like the cool kids
I don't know how much of this carried over, but I remember some classes like Striker have skills that can be directionally influenced when used with a hotkey instead of the manual command. That said, using manual commands reduces MP cost and cooldown so it's in your best interest to try to do that with as many skills as you can.

You're right, I should obviously just sell packs! How could I have been so foolish! I'll go buy some KK right away!

i came back to this game but all the dungeons were replaced with some new lamer dungeons, i liked the golem tower and behemoth and ice zone, their music tracks were great

MP costs are entirely inconsequential in modern DFO.
And the 4% cooldown reduction is arguable in effectiveness.
Most new raid bosses alternate between an invincibility phase where you have to do their gimmick, and then a 15 sec DPS phase, so getting as many skills off in that window as possible is probably more important.

did they ever get rid of the mobage stamina system on na

I play fstriker with all inputs. Muscle shift takes some getting used to but since one shift gets max buff now I usually just start the combo with a luncher. Only directional skill that gets wonky sometimes is beat drive.

user asking this is like asking if XI has gone f2p yet. Stop being a fag and try other classes.

>i liked the golem tower and behemoth and ice zone
Didn't those all come back in a recent patch? I played through short versions of them during the event speed-leveling period.

those still exist.

Those dungeons were still in the game, they were just moved out of the leveling phase and relegated to farming dungeons.

But then they revamped the leveling dungeons AGAIN, and now those are back in the main quest anyway.

no thanks Ill just continue not playing it and having fun on games without trash systems like that

They're back. They're around for only a few dungeons runs now, but they are indeed back.

Fstriker feels like she's gotten too fast. So many of her skills are over before I can do a proper cancel now.

You have been filtered by the most inconsequential system in the game user. FP is meaningless at cap unless you just love running assault mode constantly.

How are you supposed to farm and in what order? I always hit a wall on level cap and dont know what to do next

It feels like every update the early dungeons get swapped back and forth between the main story and Mirror Arad.

Ass mode until you get them legos
The way ebin sets work now you can complete them with legos

Attached: dfo 95 cap simple.png (619x767, 452K)

Reintroducing pre-metastasis Arad was done to have a more coherent plot. Post-Metastasis Arad is now in the Mirror Arad section, which is an alternate dimension version of Arad that had been caught in the Metastasis.

Alternate dimension explanation works now because Knight class is a thing now. Knight subclasses has Knight merge with an alternate dimension version of herself, rather than working hard or attaining power.

Is it better to farm Disaster Sector for Terranium or just to run Total Eclipse on Slayer?

TE nets you captchas after a few runs if you're decently geared, so there's that.

Disaster Sector for Terranium farming only Basically for when you want to make a lot of Refined Terranium for upgrading your gear.

Total Eclipse for over all gold farming.

TE is generally better I think but the difference might be negligible.

Looks like TE is the better deal for me then. Disaster Sector's dumbass gimmicks make my runs there take FAR too long.

Attached: bug bir.png (800x1135, 236K)

Well you should be partying for disaster.

If you ask me, TE is a total bore.

DS is also a bore, but it expends fatigue points very quickly, so it's quick to finish. I believe 4 runs is enough to spend your entire bar.

TE just makes me want to sleep. Even worse when you're geared to the point where you must equip a bad weapon to get SSS rank, since how much gold you get on your reward card scales with clear rank.

user it's been dead, their quality of translation has been getting lower, I think it's actually just machine translated now. There's very little improvement in the game, and they keep losing staff from lack of funding, the west isn't meant to play dnf, stick to arad or kdnf. 99% of the english community was playing those for the better part of a decade before dfo global hit nexon, they were playing it after nexondfo closed, and they're still playing it now.

Can I get a quick rundown on this cat?

>99%
more like 1%, fuck trying to find reliable worst korean to set up an account

no, anyone who's actually playing the game seriously plays on arad or kdnf. I've had my nexon account for years and years. I don't play dnf cause I think it's a boring game and I hate stamina systems, but I know a good 20 people who've outlasted everyone who's bandwagonned to maplestory, then maplestory 2, to kartrider, to airrider, to closers, cyphers, whatever else. DNF always has at least that group of 15 people or so.

It used to have one.

Maybe if they bothered to advertise it more than just handing it off to a cringy Chinese ad farm service...

Attached: Tessa....jpg (725x91, 23K)

>15-20 people
So 1%.

The nearly four years of grind in global so far aren't serious players? After nexon NA killed it a fucking tiny fraction was all that was left playing kdnf/cdnf/arad. Miniscule. With global we have an actual community now, not dregs.

even with real TV ads running back in the day it failed to establish an audience. Stamina systems remove people's interest in a game. The only reason they pan out on phones is because you can pay immediately to restore them, and you generally only play them for 4-5 minutes at a time so it's not as big of a deal.

>Stamina systems remove people's interest in a game

user, the game has lots of problems. Stamina isn't the thing turning off casuals, casuals only play for like an hour anyway. The equipment grind is what turns casuals away.

I'd like to see the amount of unique accounts with characters at cap level. Or really, just above 70. I'd bet it's insanely low, because they only ever publish "total characters at lvl x" which means nothing. I would bet money that people are losing interest because they play for 3 hours, get through a bit of the epic, then they're told to fuck off (or go for neo premium) and they just never log back on.

You're seriously overrating the stamina man. No one sees it as a fuck off sign, it's a load up the next alt and drain their bar sign. That's all its ever been.

What's your average clear time?

About 35 seconds if I ignore items. 50ish if I pick up stuff that isn't too far off the path.

Oh, I'm talking about TE fast clear if it wasn't obvious since I forgot to mention that.

Then when they get to endgame, they'll run dungeons a few times, then get told to fuck off because of daily limits. Face it, DFO is not a game where you can poopsock it all day long.

??? I'm on my 4th bar of TE bro.

>daily limits
>not draining your fp for gold
goldlet

I'm saying it's the main reason people are leaving though, there's no way a large number of people log on for more than one day after they're told to fuck off or make a new character right as they start to get in the groove of playing and figuring out their first choice of class.
I don't think I am, it's the reason a lot of people quit and caused nexon to make that shitty blitz system, or did you just block that out of your memory? It, that is, stamina was literally THE most complained about system on the entire forums, up until blitz was introduced, where IT became the most complained about system.

Because coming back the next day and picking off where you left off is not that big of a deal. Does having to sleep piss you like this too?

Serb select happens to me randomly sometimes when changing channels. Are we really so alive that the serb is borked?

After a minute I can click cain and pick a channel though.

Keeps happening to me randomly. I just keep retrying until it lets me in again. More often than not if I try to go on channel 46, it dumps me to some other random channel instead too.

m nen looks so dumb

Same. I started playing years ago under nexon, I think the level cap was like 50 when I started. Then came back when oceanic express was the last story area. I think Avenger had just released and I got avas for him with cash, then I got lucky and got a unique from returning hero double card you buy, sold them both for a shit ton (nexom dfo, shit) got diabolus and went +13 and has so much fun, then I think I had to quit and game was shut down. Came back in 2015 for dfog leveled demon slayer and dark knight to 60s. Some reason I have thee of the alpha capes, anyways I just came bck to the game, I kinda hate the scenario bs, but I love the gameplay. Also sucks that all my old
Methods of selling quest mats for gold is gone but ehh. Still a fun time. Also sucks idk how to set up dark knights skills since they all reset, so I don’t know where to start with a level 62 DK I haven’t played in years. I just remember him being so much fucking fun though, now it’s too confusing.

Wait was that before or after we joined that one general that died after /dfog/ split off again

/dfog/ was around before /mmog/ was a thing. I don't know if there was some other general /dfog/ refugees were a part of.

>dark knight
you fucking weirdo

isn't DK just combo small cd skills into a finishing fat CD skill

Yes, I just don’t know what skills to set up for combo. I enjoyed playing as him and leveled him right when dfog came out.

I just got back in to try the two new subclasses.
They both feel kind of eeh.

Also oh god coming back with 0 contracts or prem is fucking suffering.

The thing is this game requires a long time commitment since everything is locked behind dailies. With this game's popularity being so low it could literally close down any day and all progress would be gone just like that, and I'm not down with that.

He was probably talking about having a game with the same polish, quality, and content. Not so much the same design philosophy. In which case it would still apply to BBQ.

Yeap. Chinese servers are so pay 2 win, their end game content have inflated stats just to accommodate for the excess amount of power the players have. You must pay 2 win or you will never get anywhere in china dfo.

One of the reasons why DFOG is seeing chinese players for some reason, is because they're trying to get away from that.

I doubt they need that much staff since it's probably just server maintenance guys and they're just monitoring it from S.Korea. Maybe the translation would take money but I'd just attribute the main cost to run the servers.

The only bad agent is SA, people only play him for his damage. His moon skills are sorta okay maybe.

Specialist is crazy flashy tech lasers, very visually distinct. His dual laser blade animation is great way to use the pistol in tandem with core sword. The one where he slams it into the ground and rips up a laser fissure, the delayed skills you have to charge via attacks is like a laser fracture in the air, all cool. Especially his 2a with how it warps your gauges.

Hitman was a great surprise. They tell you his gun is an smg but it puts out bullets like a minigun. Mobbing enemies with all the bullets is fun, and the sword skills leave a nice impression, especially the finisher slice with bloodspray. Of course his 2a takes the cake calling in his crew to decimate everything.

Troubleshooter, do I even need to say anything?

Isn't the global staff just a skeleton crew on some remote island nobody wants to work on? Look at the volume of packages moved on megas on any given day. They're doing fine.

Back when it released I think they did a tour of the building they work in and it looked pretty expensive. If they already bought it then they might not bother shutting it down, but if they're renting then it could be an issue.

If they play their cards right, they're well positioned to be a major Korean esport. Just need to make sure the game's PvP is balanced. If that's the case, they'll probably at least try for an international release.

That said, we all know it's just going to be a typical 3D KMMO.

it came out 14 years ago, no shit it looks bad. the gameplay makes up for it.

Well it is like 15 years old and they'll never update the sprites again because of all the money they make from avatar packages, unless you meant you didn't like the way the gameplay looked

Would still be a beat em up considering the transition to 3D or just an action game?

dominions 5?

Luke raid is worth doing because you can still upgrade Savior's Glory weapons to Savior's Triumph, which is comparable to Sky Legacy in power, and because you can get sensor stones and DI from it. Heblon's good too but upgrading it to Cycles is usually not worth it because it doesn't save many sky fragments and costs a ton of gold + refined terranium. Only worth it to save enchants or amps.

The same is true of the anton accessories. They CAN be upgraded to Tayberrs accessories but the cost and work involved make it not worth your time unless you had that shit with like a +11 amp or something. Better off just getting harlems and buying tayberrs accessories outright.

>it doesn't save many sky fragments
Doesn't it save an entire Epic's worth of sky fragments? Seems pretty worth it to me.

Dawning Crevice is giving me some trouble as a freshly 95'd Ghostblade. Am I missing something about how to fight as him?

Dawning Crevice is the start of content where you have to actually pay attention to what the enemy is doing and dodge their attacks. It's very tanky content for the gear you'll be doing it in (i.e. there's no longer any point in doing it once you find it easy).

You shouldn't feel bad if it takes you 10-20 minutes and a handful of Life Tokens each run until you get the hang of it.
