Score=9.5

i dont care if you agree with me just use the poll.

9.5 rating is accurate untill lv 95ish then it goes down...way down

wait till your lv 95 and you find nothing to do for money except grind on the lv50 map

no new or decent equipment, youll be using the same armor as you did at 60, no variety *edit* theres a few armor sets after lv60, some are just for looks, not really better and others come much later in the game and are very hard to get

crafting is a giant money sinkhole, as said before, youll be grinding the lv 50 map just to pot yourself

once you hit skill cap you realize that the skills, for the most part, that you used back at level 30-50 are gonna be the skills you use the entire game (boring)

unbalance pvp as a force blader can just about one shot anyone (bm2 skill) while other classes get bm2 skills that have other purpouses other than pvp

you buy premium service so you can leave you computer on overnight, punching skill dummies so you can get 10 skill points by morning -.-

nothing to do after lv 95 as you hardly get quests, the xp per kill goes waaay down and the way you play changes from dropping huge groups of mobs solo that drop all kinds of goodies to having to party to kill 1-3 mobs only to get a drop that you would expect from the lv50 map

also, i refuse to play f2p games owned and run by gold farmers and botters

i remember how fun beta was, since there was a community, now the only community is that of the gold farmers, they ruined the chat and therefore the community

I don't see how anyone can make it to level 95, I got to around14 and was done. It's your typical Asian grinder, where every character is a clone.

It's been a blast for the first day, but I'll have to wait and see how it goes in the higher levels.

My initial impression is that it's up there with the best free to plays out there, better then some P2Ps, slightly lower then LOTRO.

An 8 for the moment could go either up or down.

100% accurate

its the skill system that kept me going, once that got old that was it...the loot fest was nice too untill around lv60...also i played during beta..you know when there was a community of players not botters and gold farmers spamming non stop on every channel's global chat...but i guess thats what makes an asian grinder and asian grinder

if they could take the skill system,combos and batle mode idea and give it some depth with character custimization, add a VARITY of equipment, you know not having 5 diffrent varieties of equipment for the whole game per class...this game would be a winner but then i guess asian grinder companies are smart enough to make great graphics but not smart enough to stop bots and gold farmers, so that is something that will most likely be included in every korean f2p game till the end of time

I just registered to point out how horribly inaccurate your review is.

First off grindind at a level 50 map for money? Lol? There is a new map at 80, Another at 110 with part 2 at 115 and part 3 at 120.  Then there's another at 125, and another at 140.

Second. Armor? The only reason you can't wear new armor is becuase you didn't skill train to get the stats to wear them.  Most people wear Osmium at around 80, Class Unique armor at 99, and another Class unique at 115.

Crafting. Indeed expensive, join a good guild and  let them do the craft whiile you provide raw material.

Skills.  The silll cap is called transendent, using skills from level 30-50? Rofl, most people don't hit transendent until 100+ and of course they use the transendent skill, they're the most beneficial.

Gold Farmers/Botters, Seriously wow, they're arn't even that many, have you seen Silkroad Online?

Premium. First off, you can't even punch dummies to get skill exp, and you get around 30 a night unles you are transendent.

Exp.  Cabal is a party based game...there are dungeons to do, the exp can be godly if you know what you'redoing.


You haven't even really played to point out so many cons in a game with so much potential.

 

Wow,  you took the words right out my mouth.  This game was very fun till release of item mall,  then you realize the BOT hitting the training dummy will have completor skills in a week, and want to puke.  F2P = cost way more than P2P as  soon as item mall gets released.  And the GMs and VGMs never police the server trash like they do in a quality P2P game.  And when you hit the 90 lvls game gets very boring real fast,  the fact that you are stuck in a grind game becomes very clear.  If you like to grind and dont mind paying for item malls this is a really good game,  better than most the other games like this out now.

Yes this game is great, i loved to play for hours until i was been hacked, and forgot my recovery questions! So no more playing for me!! ( lvl 100 btw)

5. Like all others F2P games.

You gain 10 points for 8 hours of dummy training before Trans. I'm Comp/Trans, using the dummy every night, and I can tell that the last levels to become Comp or Trans are really painfull on a dummy. Even with a total of +36 skill exp bonus on your stuff.
The dummy system is like that :
- you'll gain 100% of the skill exp if your current skill level is between 0 and 33% of the max level needed to change your skill rank
- otherwise you'll only gain 30% of the skill exp
And it's why people use bots to train their skills instead of paying 9€ a month. Monsters always give 100% of the skill exp, without level restrictions.

When i first saw this game, i was impressed by its gameplay and graphics. Boy was i awefully diappointed. I played this game for about 3 weeks tops before i called it quits. I just didn't keep me entertained that would make me want to play it on a constant basis. My friend played until level 100+, I dont know how he was able to sign on and not become bored, but if your interested in this game, give it a try.
