I'm assuming they drop from the advanced Tech Duinn missions. However, while I haven't tried Revived Illusion on adv, Feth Fiada on adv seems super hard. 20k damage on zombies is possible using chain impale with proper BFO, bone chips, and crit but it's not fast enough for the hallway. Although we didn't get that far because of the zombies, I also hear the gate does crazy amount of damage.

For anyone who completed either of the two missions on advanced, what would be your advice?]]> https://forums.mabinogi.nexon.net/discussion/19221/remove-the-festia-instant-prize-event-s Thu, 24 Jan 2019 19:02:55 +0000 General Chat Froglord 19221@/discussions
What needs to happen is that it needs to be replaced with something that can distribute prizes equally. We need a raffel ticket system, where each hour you can buy a ticket with a random generated number in the item description, and is exchanged for a box, or a primary prize each hour via mail.

Let it be something that picks players out of a pool like Tara's bank part time job.

The way the festia prize events are set up now, it's just funding real world trade, and more cheating.]]> https://forums.mabinogi.nexon.net/discussion/19213/next-update Thu, 24 Jan 2019 01:59:15 +0000 General Chat pawcalypse 19213@/discussions

Anyways i noticed I got this weird EXP thing that i have no idea what it does, it's called Eluned renowned or something like that? I see it that it's leveling up but i have no idea how to check that level it'self what does it really do.

Also i noticed that the fashinogi aspect of the game has gone quite darn overboard, afkers everywhere too and very little social interaction, which kinda leaves me sad that I wasn't able to randomly drag myself in convos i had nothing to do with like i did a decade ago.

Also i am loving the way the story missions are set up, it's just so convenient to just click on the story you wanna start and hit play.

The most common abilities to be nerfed from alchemy is usually frozen blast, rain casting, barrier spikes, ice mines, and setting up the tower.
In the new Tech Durinn missions, its: rain casting, hydra, barrier spikes, and shock.

I've also been keeping a general eye on the community since the start, even though my dumb younger self never committed to an account/character until the Merlin Ace Update of all things. So much missed AP...

Anyways, I'm sure you've at SOME point wondered what certain choices, be it cosmetics or races, said about you as a player.
If not, well....
You can enjoy this satire.
Of course because some people might get mad, remember this golden rule:
All stereotypes have exceptions, so even if something you have contains the stereotype of "big jerk", it doesn't mean you are one.



Humans

Human players are actually the most difficult thing to pin stereotypes for, given that almost the entire population chose to be this race.
However, this doesn't stop any of them from existing.
First, we got the old school characters. These people existed before Elves and Giants were added, so it only makes sense that they are human. Skill levels vary greatly, but due to how long they have been around they are usually at the very least competent. Or they are a level 40,000 god.
Second, we have the "humans are supreme" human player. Now, say what you want about which races are good or bad, the people I'm talking about here are always in your face about it. It doesn't matter what the situation is, they will talk down on Elf and Giant players like its their job or something.
And Third, we have the "I have final hit, so therefore I must be invincible" player. You know what sort of people I'm talking about.
Now I'm not saying you shouldn't help them know better, but you can at least let them die before doing so.




Giants

The first stereotype here is actually very easy.
A new player that picks giant to have decent melee without any dedication. Of course because of this, they often overlook what being a giant is actually about and then will wonder why they die so much once that early melee boost is no longer relevant.
The second are old school true giant mains. These people are usually very laid back and lend a hand where needed. In fact, most long term giant mains seem to be this way. Keep it up. You guys are awesome.
The third is the rebellious "I refuse to use melee" giant. Just....why? You picked the race known for melee, yet....why?
Its like intentionally maining melee elf, unless you know what you are doing it has no purpose.



Elves

Oh boy... These first two are going to make an elf somewhere angry, I just know it.
First off, the pure fashion elf. Weak, fashionable, and afk all day. This could apply to humans too, but at least when humans do it they have stats.
The second is a new player that has no idea what he is in for. He chose elf to be an archer without understanding the extreme dedication it requires.
These players either give up archery, switch to a different race, or be the rare brave soul who eventually becomes...
Third: The enlightened. These elves actually pushed through the suffering of early elf growth and became somewhat respectable. While often not melee like humans or giants, they still have great skill coverage and most likely decent crafting out of their need for dex.
Finally, the fashionable hidden deity. These elves will look like the first stereotype, but show or greatly exceed the qualities of the third.
I mean sure, they might still afk all the dang time, but then when you absolutely need help they will be there to carry you. Entirely.



The meta follower

Insanely powerful, often finding the most valuable items, and refusing to be fashionable beyond base cosmetics.
Oh boy do these people have stereotypes.
The first is the rare actually helpful/kind one. I'm sure if you are on any of the servers long enough you will know which people I'm talking about.
The kind of people who will carry you in phantasm if you make a pass and NOT ask for your loot.
The second is the exact opposite. The rude/superiority complex type. You know what I'm talking about.
They will still carry you through things, but will always demand you give them your chest loot. Even if you made that phantasm pass yourself.
To them, everything has to be about their precious money/progress, not yours.
The Third type is actually pretty cool and/or annoying. The math types.
You know, the people who do all the crazy math to find the most optimal numbers for everything.
Sometimes to a....very painfully annoying degree. You know, the type that say "well just be level 40k and you can do this haha".



The Fashionogi

And here I thought the only potential hate would be the elves. Fashionogis have this stigma among some players of being whiny and never playing the game. Honestly that is only true for...
The first, the pure fashionogi. Yeah. The one the stigma is about. They don't do much of anything so they never improve enough to handle harder content. Thankfully most of them are laid back and at the very least train music so they can jam out with eachother.
The second: The Gacha Follower. Always wearing the newest gacha set. Nothing else. Usually this is in an attempt to make people think they are cool for being so rich. Spoilers though. Nobody really bats an eye.
The Third: The actually good Fashionogi. These people have looks that are original, easy on the eyes, and most likely still play the game beyond going afk. Be it a merchant, assisting in dungeons, etc. Regardless of what gacha comes out, they will stick to their signature look with well deserved pride.



The Enigma

These people are weird. You know, the people that wear things like those animal mascot masks. All the time. NEVER removing them.
Now, the stereotype actually depends on the mask in question, as different Enigmas wear different masks.
The Squirrel Mask: Completely laid back, yet always shirtless for some reason if the character is male. Especially if a giant.
The Rabbit Mask: Always willing to be helpful and run dungeons, but never, NEVER tick them off. They hold anger beyond your understanding.
The Alpaca mask: These people just want to meme. Thats it, thats the stereotype. Just....meme.
The Halloween Skull/Pumpkin mask: These people like to annoy you with the loud squeaky footsteps. Either a meme or a troll, depending on the situation. Of course the exception to this is during the month of October. In that case the person is just festive.

And there you have it for general stereotypes.
Now, if I continue or not depends entirely on this topic's poll.

If you want me to continue, the next set shall be wing stereotypes.
So if you want to see that, vote yes.
Also I deeply encourage you to post what you think a stereotype is for certain wings, since god help me if I try to list EVERY SINGLE ONE.
If anything we could turn this into community satire.

For all others full post below:

Hello folks, I've seen Mabinogi around and read up on the game and discussions and the like and I'm thinking on giving it a try. I have two character concept ideas I was tossing around based on my very limited understanding of the talent and life skill system (I do enjoy crafting, but I love being a merchant most) and was looking for some advice on this.

First and foremost I want to use commerce because I love trading and being a merchant (I've been looking for other games to be a trader/merchant where you have to transport goods - I used to play Archeage but the premium sub and cash shop woes got me down), and since I know you have to train this just like any other talent, I was wondering what the best way to go about this might be.

But also, since I tend to be a lone wolf (not always by choice, but /shrug), I know I'll need combat skills to defend myself from npcs and bandits (plus I do like exploring, and combat will enable this). My two concepts are this:

Giant adventurer with a combination of transformation mastery, lance combat, and transmutation and/or battle alchemy skills. I don't know if I can draw from transformation mastery after training it enough and getting enough transformations as a main form of combat, or if this is mostly fluff to supplement some other combat roles? The description wasn't very clear to me. What are some thoughts/advice on this? And where might be the best place to start?

The second concept was an Elf elementalist monk using a combination of martial arts, magic, and transformation mastery. Same question about transformation applies as above, but I also heard elves are not ideal for melee combat as they receive penalties to strength (although it seems that martial arts based on the wiki does not add to strength? is this not a main damage stat for martial arts?). Thoughts/advice? Where is a good place to start if going with this character?

Thanks in advance for any tips on where to start, and for reading!]]> https://forums.mabinogi.nexon.net/discussion/19183/blaanid-coins-are-bank-tradeable-title-is-not Mon, 21 Jan 2019 20:29:33 +0000 General Chat WolfandWolf 19183@/discussions

Unless I'm missing something the differences between them and regular weapons have always been:
1. More damage than regular weapons
2. Item feeding for growth/maintenance
3. Spirit weapon awakening
4. Different repair system
5. A single character portrait
6. Unable to use some upgrades which are available to other weapons

Was any of this actually fun though? 1 and 6 basically cancel each other out; 2 felt to me like an inconvenience; 3 was basically always irrelevant; 4 was another inconvenience (though this really depends on which weapon you have) and 5 never really felt like anything worth caring about.

This probably seems like a bunch of complaining, but I thought I'd start by explaining my understanding of spirit weapons before asking the main question; why do people like these things and want them to be good?]]> https://forums.mabinogi.nexon.net/discussion/19174/tech-card-icons Sun, 20 Jan 2019 22:10:43 +0000 General Chat nikyah 19174@/discussions https://forums.mabinogi.nexon.net/discussion/19109/trepidations Mon, 14 Jan 2019 06:28:15 +0000 General Chat Rhey 19109@/discussions

I cannot read what the characters are saying in the G22 cutscenes- Rather, the only one I've viewed. I don't know if this bothers anyone else, because maybe I just read slowly, but I genuinely can't read all of what they're saying.

I thought they'd moved past this with the Shakespeare stuff, but now they're doing it again and its harming my experience with the story... Do they get better about it further in? Or am I just screwed? I'd rather not have to look up the cutscenes on youtube, because watching the experience with a different character just ruins the immersion, y'know? I want to feel like I'm involved in the story, rather than watching someone else complete it.]]> https://forums.mabinogi.nexon.net/discussion/19156/when-does-the-briogh-reset Thu, 17 Jan 2019 18:42:53 +0000 General Chat Akirachu 19156@/discussions en
