Accurate Mystic Gameplay

So, they're hiding the fact that they're going full p2w behind the "Global build"

Posted: 17 Feb 2018 06:01 AM PST

This is my new favorite explanation of BDO whenever someone asks me about it.

P2W is the wrong direction for this game to go

Posted: 16 Feb 2018 09:10 PM PST

I'd happily spend money on cosmetics that I like. Adding more cosmetic items to the game would definitely increase sales. However, adding an increasing amount of P2W items in a P2P game is just going to piss people off (as we've seen this week). I guess my point is that I'd like more effort to be put into the costumes rather than adding items like Kamasylve to the pearl shop. I'm sure I'm not the only one who would waste money on costumes pretty frequently given more options, lol.

Anyone else lagging REALLY bad?

Posted: 16 Feb 2018 07:29 PM PST

I don't see any post about it but it's been going on for like 5 hours straight now it seems.

I looked at their twitter and nothing.

I put in a ticket about it 5 hours ago and no response on that end.

EDIT: These are the last three hops to getting into the server.

https://i.imgur.com/312LQDC.png

173.205.44.194 Is the problem IP.

Host - Lost Packet % Sent Recv Best Avrg Wrst Last
173.205.44.194 - 34% 50 33 82 94 121 90
209.58.130.81 - 3% 106 103 75 82 107 84

Major packet loss to 173.205.44.194. Who owns 173.205.44.194 you ask? Well, none other than the great GTT Communications, Inc.

Remeber when the GM_Horizon told us this? https://i.imgur.com/rDBjqza.png

I don't have CenturyLink btw. You right it's on our end. Not your shitty server ISP.

EDIT 2: Been over an hour now of on and off lag/disconnects.

Still no response from any GM.

EDIT 3: Hours since the last edit and still lagging and disconnecting in bursts. STILL no response or even acknowledgment of the problem.

EDIT 4: 12 hours after I put in my first ticket STILL no response or even acknowledgment of the problem. https://i.imgur.com/Ahb6hNH.jpg

Why can't we ever have 1 week of the servers not being just absolute shit?

Trading Profitability Tool and Automated Balance Sheet v1.0 - Find out how much money you make per hour in this game!

Posted: 16 Feb 2018 07:01 PM PST

Hey guys,

Put together a really awesome tool that will calculate for you what your actual profitability is in regards to the sum of your processing, gathering, and trading activities are, your bottlenecks (like not being able to sell things fast enough), and CP efficiency.

Tool located here

The myths of people making 1-2 billion a week "trading" is completely dispelled, and the exact percentages of the breakdown of what you do to the dollar is shown in this tool. Go ahead and find our yours!

My full BDO Balance Sheet

  • 22.56% profit comes from gathering

  • 59.55% profit comes from processing T1 to T3

  • 17.89% profit comes from trading

I make ~43.4 million/day unrealized, ($39 million/day realized) from these activities based on how much I feed my workers. Anyway, feel free to enjoy my tool, and I'm here to support it and update it with your ideas and suggestions. I'm an engineer who started an investment company, so yeah, I sort of make spreadsheets my bitch. Give me the ideas, and I'll do the coding/math!

Also have to give credit to Biohack, as I used some of his calcs to make this thing functional by today just to save time. You do the lord's work my dude. Thanks a million.

Note: I threw this together very quickly today on a caffeine high, so there was only so much I can incorporate. Also let me know any math errors you find. Working on getting all nodes and mats in there...Stay tuned!

I'll be online all night tonight to answer questions and take suggestions for improvements, live stream link in the doc!

"Roleplaying Channel". New player rant.

Posted: 17 Feb 2018 06:49 AM PST

So I've been on the hunt for a game that would allow me to have a unique crafting system (Which, the node management is cool for that actually.) However another thing I wanted was a decent, wasn't expecting perfect, RP community. Jumped onto a server, found the RP text channel and introduced myself. I was greeted with "shut up fg" and "f*cking nerd" type responses. Is RP just not a thing in this game or am I just running across the jack-asses? If its not in the game really then that is a big disappointment.

How to redirect to BDOCodex

Posted: 16 Feb 2018 11:38 AM PST

As most of us know, bddatabase is dead, it's not being maintained or updated anymore as the guy who did all the work had a falling out with his partner and made a new website called bdocodex which is actually being maintained.

It is a massive pain to always have to see bddatabase links, so i found this.

Here's a screenshot of how to setup the tool to always redirect all bddatabase links to bdocodex. https://imgur.com/a/bvK65

Enjoy

Class suggestion

Posted: 17 Feb 2018 08:02 AM PST

Hey everyone,

I got a lvl 59 witch but since my pc isn't really top tier i have quite a lot of trouble playing node wars successfully. Since the witch's strength isn't exactly in 1v1s, i've been looking to play another class. She's very good at clearing and big scale pvp but sadly i can't get into big scale pvp for now.

So i'm looking another class who has decently fast grinding aswell as strong 1v1 potential. The classes i already eliminated are zerkers (ugly af imo), sorc (straight up bad ?), wiz (i already have a witch); ninja/kuno (unappealing theme), dk (doesn't seem good either in 1v1 scenarios), musa/maewha (same ?).

The classes that caught my eyes are valk, tamer and mystic mostly. Maybe ranger aswell. I wouldn't be against trying warrior or striker but they aren't as appealing as the others i mentionned (striker's running/jumping animation made me quit at lvl 13 lol).

So basically i'm looking for opinions on those classes (valk/tamer/mystic) strength in 1v1s and pve grinding, the gear investment required, their relative skill level, etc.
