Please read about Physical Levels and Removing them.

Do you have a YG link to the item? Silver Brand isn't bringing anything to mind.

was referring to the fire brand from my post above my response because it uses silver in the synth. was responding to maybe the materials were the reason for the severe damage the weapon took. silver is the material it takes to repair is why i used the statement silver brand. sorry should have been more specific.

Fire Brand

Seems to use an Antelope Horn as the base item. Not very sturdy. Antelope Horn is listed under Bone, and Bone items (at least the ones I've used) break like no ones business. So perhaps that's it?

In my opinion, physical levels are fine as currently implemented. My only change would be for the game to remember our stat assignments individually for each class and automatically shift them when we change classes.

no i was referring to if it is not hitting anything physically. i know if i hit something bone would really mess up fast. i was just using it as an example since the repair mat is silver also. i guess they say the silver breaks, but the horn stays in tact idk lol.

you know whats funny, they (ythe old team) was actually gonna do this but the switch happen. The only thing wrong with stat alot is how long it takes a min/maxer to switch jobs.

But that is the fault of the min/mxers since it was stated pre launch to balance out your stats so you can switch on the fly.

Just because ppl like to min/max is why they changing the system...
the physical lvl was suppose to lvl up classes a bit faster.

I just don't want cookie cutting to be the norm. It really took away my fun :/

Magic is based on Aether no? Which in my mind is like sending energy voltages through something. Sending that through Silver and Bone it should break down fast. Same for wood....

well the thing is i think we have too many classes and too many points for the way it is setup now. the really easy solution would be to have a points you set once per class and only change it if you change role of that class ie: thm from healer to nuker has different stats. then the only time you would have anything else to do is as you pick up a level in that class you do those points for that class.

oh i wasn't complaining i was just using it as an example of how one item at your rank may damage fast while some people at lvl 1 may wear some r50 gear and they never seem to damage.

I kinda suggested something simmilar not long ag (but that was before they even added this forum)

Because points allotment became such a god damn pain in the ass after switching class after awhile
one was forced to stay as 1 class until u either got sick of it or hit cap.

I'd suggest what Corny suggested himself, some preset points allotment. (or option to save 1 set/class)

Or something like "WoW" / "Rift's" talent root/tree option to choose what to unlock, focus on.
Obviously for each class. (not just craft, battleclasses but also gathering class)

The only thing Im really opposed to with the current system is it forces you to have either a DoW or a DoM character.
As a Conj/Thaum with everything pumped into Int/MND/PIE im pretty gimped if I want to play say an Archer or some other melee based class. Yes, I can shuffle stats...but that takes a full day, or at least 2-3 smaller evening sessions.

Not cool the way it is. If I go with DoW...then its DoW for a while and vice versa if I want to go DoM. Really cuts down on the overall flexibility of the armory system. Peep's needing to replace a tank that had to leave early or something better have someone whos stats are already setup properly.

Solution:
User saved "Preset stats" for each class...or at least a couple(I believe theres a few MMO's) that let you have a couple pre-saved character templates that you can hot swap between.

My main is Marauder and my secondary is Conjurer, I'm stated for Dow with High Piety. I haven't gotten any complaints about my healing.

R40 MAR, R31 CON

There isn't as big of a problem switching between the two as long as you know how to play the class and use the essential skills.

>.> Honestly I don't think anyone even notices that I'm not a real Conjurer.
