I'm going to say Blood Clerics lose this time.

It's not a matter of winning or losing.

It's a trade-off. Blood priests get faster leveling early on, but they pay for it by dealing less damage. And like the other guy said, normal priests might end up bound to DKs again if we get stronger monsters, while bloods would be free to party with anyone.

Saying something like that is even worse than saying "all sins are KSers" or "all DKs are hackers".

[Nikkis]

Being a legit Spearmen is so much better than being a hacking one. I was praised by DKs for being a legit spearmen. I even got a free holy spear because I was legit.

You cant take a temporary retirement. When you retire, you dont go back to work after a year, once you retire you're done.

Dude no one just "gives" away Holy Spears, you know how much those go for on Basil?

EDIT: Never mind I thought you said Omega Spear.

[Afrobean]

Dear Shazam,

Please stop posting, or at least mellow out a bit. You're far too abrasive. It would probably be beneficial for you to simply not post for a while and watch how the regulars post. Then, when you would return, you'd be a much better poster.

Sincerely,
Afro

But...but...but. It's not like every DK throws him Holy Spears. He's probably just gotten one for free from someone at random. I used to give away random crap I didn't need for free.

[ImEric12]

Actually, Chris, he is just about as mean as most regulars, heh =P


Haven't got a chance to play much lately. Jumping on my xbowman right now, I don't remember how close I am to levelling. If I'm at like 50% I'll just level today.

[ckj846]

Heh I'm mean as hell but everyone knows that about me. Meh. Yeah, but I am taking a break from maple because there has been so much going on for me, and maple has worsened the situation probably. I used to use it as an outlet for stress but now it has just made me ignorant to my problems. So, I'm going to tackle my problems first and then maybe come back to maple. Or not. Maple really isn't a priority for me.
O_o
EDIT: Didn't realize that was my 2000th post. Oh boy.

[ToshX]

I'm (generally) pretty nice unless someone does something to bother me. It seems like many people are just aggressive for no reason here -.- That's the main reason I didn't even think about joining the FFR guild after I noticed it.

Err, huh?

I really need to stop letting my brother use my acct, I get random messages that I dont even know what to make of >>

And thanks for sayng it so nice Afro, I didnt even notice at first that you were calling me abrasive.

[tsugomaru]

And if I remember correctly, sharing accounts is suppose to bring Wizet's banhammer down on you.

However, they only ban the small crimes that occur in MS.

Cussing, people that appear to be botting, high levels, etc.

[vashthestampede0987]

I believe that shazam is referring to his FFR account. Wizet sucks at banning people. Most of the time 18/20 channels at L3 are being vac'd/god moded/bot'd and they don't do crap. And mint is never on when I need him/her ;_;

[ToshX]

Yeah, out of the massive amount of people playing, the number they ban is incredibly small. You can hack in front of tons of people and get right up to level 100, then play legitimately and never get banned.

Of course, people DO get banned, it just doesn't happen all that often, and when it does, everyone knows about it.

As an example relating to odds, people DO get struck my lightning, it just doesn't happen all that often, and when it does, everyone knows about it.

Nice comparison.

You believe correctly.

And Wizet just hired a bunch of new GM's, so this should be interesting to say the least.

[evilbutterfly]

Oh hey guys I'm back. I SURE HOPE TEE DIDN'T GIVE ANYBODY ELSE THAT 10 INT CAPE!!! I want it. Free? I was always so... mean nice to Tee.

YEAH WELL **** YOU

[ProtoMDS]

Nikkis, if you still care:
Since you're getting HB first, and going pure spear, you'll be missing out FA. getting 6 booster will not fix lack of FA, but it will make it slightly better for you.

[Nikkis]

Thanks, and this will help me through the 40s and 50s until I max FA?

[evilbutterfly]

Nikkis, all booster does is speed up your weapon, so it's like you have Normal speed spears instead of Slow ones. Booster (well, all of them except mages' booster) has the same effect at level 1 as it does at max. The only change is the duration and the HP/MP cost, which makes higher level booster much more cost efficient than lower level booster. People suggest getting about 6 points in it so you have a solid minute long duration. If you left it lower than that, the time you spend recasting it would negate the benefit of faster attacks.

So yeah, about 6 booster will help you a lot. Faster attacks = faster killing. It'll affect all your attacks, even FA (which is already pretty fast). You'll want to max booster eventually (because recasting it every minute is still annoying and not very MP efficient), but 6 does just fine for a while.
