Was there a contest for getting your male fighter to level 20?

Yeah, that's going on right now; you have 'till the 12th of January.

Is it the hat trick thing?

Nope, something else:

Big Red Tie

so, I hit level 70

RoyceSraphim

Bravo, I'd high five you in game but apparently, Washington state has left the continental US.

Big Red Tie

so wish another company owned this game

Big Red Tie

also: i finally fixed my persistent connection issues with other players by forwarding port 5063

totes open to run people through shit like ancient dungeons for awakening etc

Tcheldor

So, I'm going to bump this up because this game is a ton of fun and I wish more PA people were playing. Look for me on Tchel or Tchelle in game if you have any questions or are looking for a guild.

Big Red Tie

times like this why I love this game


also who even plays this from pa anyway, is there a pa guild?

Avynte

Is this game at all comfortable with a keyboard? Or do I need to be rocking a 360 controller to enjoy it.

Big Red Tie

I play with a keyboard, it's comfortable once you get your keys set up
and more convenient than a 360 controller since hotkeying a letter to a skill is faster than inputting like a fighting game

Ledneh

Gonna resurrect this to ask a question. I'm gonna start playing again when the next patch with the resolution increase comes out, but I'm not sure about what I want to play this time around. Since my style in any game where it applies is "hit them once so god damn hard you don't need a second swing", does anything in this game apply that idea or is the game pretty heavily multi-hit based?

Tcheldor

The game is built around multi-hits, but if you want some BIG SMASHing type characters: Check out, Elementalist (big explosions), Launcher (Cannons, Grenade Launchers, Gravity Cannons, etc.), Grappler (Grabs), and perhaps with the male mage Elemental Bomber (though I'm not 100% sure at all).

I'm going to make a glacier master when the next patch hits, so I'm a bit excited.

Rubycat

I'm checking this out, and have so far made a Slayer named "Ruycatch".. One major question though, is it possible to resize the game in windowed mode? its tiny and I run a 17in flatscreen.

Tcheldor

you can't resize the window sadly. Next update will increase the size of the resolution from 640/480 to 800/600, but yea you gotta run full screen sadly.

Which subclass are ya going for?

Rubycat

I don't know yet. ill have to read up on that stuff a bit.. I'm creeping up to lv14 so far.

Marslo

giving this a shot as well.

Rubycat

Made it to lv18. still no idea what to subclass as a slayer.
-Edit-
Went Asura, I read they were a fairly good low cost class.

Tcheldor

Ladies and Classy Gents, you can now play DFO via Steam.

I'd recommend it. If you have any questions hunt me down on my Rogue Tchelle (who hit 70 yay) or my Glacier Master to be, Glacys.

RonaldoTheGypsy

I play DFO. A lot. Me and my friends run a guild that is just the five of us. We have many, many characters and lots of money. We've been on DFO since its maximum level was 40. I'm levelling a new Grandmaster with the Revolution patch. I'm not sure how open our operations are to new people but I am available to teach people/help out if needed. You can PM me on the forums.

If you're looking to get an idea of what any of the classes do, this is the resource I use:

MrVyngaard

I keep getting a "data not correct" error when using the Steam version, even after reinstalling the client. Any ideas on fixing it? I was really hoping to be able to get into this a bit more now that it's on Steam.

Tcheldor

never seen that error before. They are doing maintenance today though, so that could be your issue.

ZombieSheep

Soooo, how do you beat Tower of Illusion's last boss, the guy with bunch of dragon summons? Going after the summons don't help because he summons them back almost right away, attacking him is a crap shot with the dragon helping him plus his no cool down dash attack. He can juggle me to death from full health and there is nothing I can do about it but sit there and watch. I would totally give up and go do something else but it's my sub class unlocking quest.

Tcheldor

What class? A lot of your strat depends on that. I'd say the easiest option is to rush him to prevent Overdrive from getting up. You'll want to use a launcher of some nature to get the dragons up in the air, so they won't bother you while you kill him. Worst case scenario, upgrade your weapon.

ZombieSheep

Looks like upgrading weapon did the trick, thanks.

Big Red Tie

so i'm playing this again. my male mage is Pippington, and my main is Corgi

Quintessin

Just started seriously playing, never gave it a fair chance. My Asura is just about 50 (will be before the end of tonight), and have been playing with my friend, who is a Monk. We've been steam-rolling through stuff and having a good time, but we have no guild and know no one. If any of you guys are in active guilds or something...

Quintessin

Urgh, Awakening is expensive. Something around 2.5m or so to get all the mats. Damn cubes. I only have like, a third of that.

cptrugged

I really enjoyed this when started playing. Right up my alley. Love my grappler but could never get groups. Which is really where the game shines. Then the thief came out and I fell in love with the necromancer. Mostly cause now I could solo. I tried to go back to it a few months back but there was literally no one in the area I was in so no groups at all. No point in playing when there is no one your level to play with. And no fun to just get carried through levels.

May try the steam thing tho. See if there is a low level pop surge.

Tcheldor

w/the new male mage and steam stuff, the population grew quite a bit.

heenato

Oh wow. I just got back into this after quite a long hiatus. Alot has changed. I went though an entire dungeon before I realized most of my skills had been reset.

Also I am no longer competent at the game.

Henroid

Wowza, so I finally got around to the game again since earlier this year. I know it's the same game, but all the changes make it feel new again from a learn-how perspective.

I got too used to the game being big and pixely (I don't say "pixely" in a negative way), so the perspective change of your character being smaller in the window is... I actually don't like it. I do like the system of buying stat gains from points earned from quests, that rules (I guess that was the stat modification that was talked about before this all happened). What I don't like is the sorting of skills when you're buying, but maybe that's just my old-man syndrome coming in.

On weapons, what is the "base attack" stat? This is very much a new number and I don't know how it factors into things. It used to just be Physical and Magic attack ratings.

Also I hate the change to the fighter's hair.

Henroid

So hey, the Avenger is here now. There's an event going on where completing the class change gives you a permanent avatar that changes your weapon's look. And apparently at level 30 you get another avatar item from the sound of things.

As for the Avenger itself, it feels a lot like the Soulbender from the Slayer. Which is to say, shadow magic based characters are pretty awful. They have a weird mechanic where you build up a resource bar with normal attacks, and when you hit z, x, or c (yes c, the jump button) during any of your special move, a special attack is performed at the same time using that resource. And I think you can use that special attack multiple times in the same special move.

Still, you're having to pound at enemies a lot just to get that resource bar up and it's slow and a pain in the ass.
