I think BDO is better the way it is now but the same systems don't interest me, I've watched friends play the changes and stuff and it still looks the same to me with mostly the same problems, and as year by year passes they just tend to hand out stuff that was riddled with insane rng to get before that. I didn't think they would ever put in a pity system to the insane rng enhancing but i guess they did because overtime more people just dont' care about such a lotto wall. these fixes and other issues addressed could've been done years ago and they didn't. A year past the kakao period into self publishing i stopped paying attention entirely to anything PA, they had a lot of interesting products being built (like plan 8, dokeV etc.) but you have games like first descendant, wuwa, stellar blade, lost ark, vindictus remake etc. offering a more specific experience available now. BDO has a lost identity or the identity of just an eternal grind. I see other games that showcase a similar expression and are already being offered. BDO feels pretty uninspired these days. Costumes and cosmetics are a top sign for me and they aren't that appealing in BDO and come seldomly. Lost Ark by comparison have a dozen costumes out in the same time span and are community driven via competition/voting on top of official ones being released, even if NA version has less selection those outfits do come over after a 3month gap usually. When I think of costumes in BDO i only think of how many cron stones they turn into and what the cost is on the market, in Lost ark I check the money shop to see if there's any new skin package/wallpaper/stronghold music released. Content wise: Lost Ark - A new raid challenge that is mechanically hard and different progression systems, even if unpopular or a miss etc., every 3-6 months, exciting new entire progressional systems on the way and a soft reset to a majority of existing systems and carrying over some old systems not entirely killing veteran players nor power creeping them back to newbie oblivion. Stellar Blade - 1 Character, single player game, multiple game modes, semi-open world, 30-40+ outfits to go collect, 1 payment, exceptional combat system, original story & characters, future planned crossovers with other products, insane soundtrack. WuWa - Gacha gaming, very challenging bosses, team composition strategy, multiple character builds, equipped echo builds/strategies, counter/parrying interactions that are precise and not wonky, open world exploration, very little daily grind(2-4minutes tops), don't feel weak in the game even as a minor spender(I pay for the pass and the monthly currency thing while im active on it) in contrast BDO, since the titles mentioned before are all action RPGs: Boss rush/ challenge - I've seen the boss attacks be completely unfair and look stupid in answering their attacks with a solution when there isn't one for some of them Power creep - nothing different in any mmo but here in BDO it's just digits pushed up and a new tier of items with nothing special about them, aka just UI icons as accessories and all the like don't have a 3D representation on the character(i think?), T10 horse, just 2 dream horses put into a new horse, copied and pasted with 1-3 extra functions and some digits pushed up locked behind a giant RNG wall. as mentioned during when i played BDO, you can see the entirety of BDO PC's roadmap by just playing BDO Mobile for like 2 hours, some of their "newer" items has existed on BDO mobile since its launch. New class - usually just a screen vomit of epilepsy where people turn off effects in general to play the game to see anything, which is just poor design by default and well overtuned to incentivize people to play it and then take eons to balance or never balance them when older classes don't even see the light of day anymore. Grind loop - everyone is still chasing silver, I find this to be meaningless. Solo - Still mostly a single player MMO where no one is encouraged to interact with one another short of PVP and the game isn't exactly great for that either imo. For a visually strong aesthetic game launched for over 7 years there are still fewer customization options than other games that have less visual fidelity. Those are my thoughts.

Dude ngl watching you Hurricane Sword all around Tienis has made me reconsider everything lmao. There are a couple of things though, the Light's Out tripod increases Fatal Sword stagger by A LOT. I know it's slower but it's still quick enough to use in G4 Voldis for example in almost every stagger check and it does half of the bar alone. I did a total of like 10 Trixion parses (5 with Final Blow and 5 with Punishing Draw) and there were multiple times where Punishing Draw outdamaged Final Blow within similar crit rates (about 85-88% without a crit bracelet or crit syn). Those parses can be a little off without a Bible because if Brutal doesn't crit in a FB parse, then that parse will lose vs a PD one that did. However, because all of PD's damage is frontloaded into 2 hits, it is much more consistent, whereas FB has so many hits, some of them might not crit, especially the last one which is the one mainly matters. That can affect the crit rate shown in trixion. The only thing that sucks is that you have to choose between Paralysis Immunity and the dash, and PD is extremely stubby. Sorry for the yap, but I never would have thought about Hurricane Sword and doing the damage comparisons. Reminds me of using Black Mist on Reaper. Thanks for the video!

i kinda dont like how hurricane sword has to be held to the maximum time to trigger the tornado. I feel like if we could stop it mid way and still trigger the tornado, then it would be a way better filler skill to use while other skills are on cooldown. im still hesitant to try this build since i dont really want to gimp my DPS. I love the idea though. I've been testing your build, and also just switching out final blow for hurricane sword but using furious claw instead of punishing draw. I think it hurts my dps a little bit, but I can imagine in a real raid scenario it might perform better (since final blow is such a wonky skill. back ended small hit box at the end)

Fuck yeah! The series continues!!!! Some tips: 1) For the garlic, you can seperate the cloves and smack each one with your knife (flat), the garlic skin will be easier to seperate, also that way you dont have to waste the ends of the garlic. 2) For the Wok, you can look for a cast iron Wok, season it and use it for life. The seasoning will prevent the rice from sticking and allow for a more even cooking of everything else also. The main problem with the stainless steel woks is that the heat is too direct, so things will tend to fuse to the surface of it thus the constant scrapping lol. 3) When browning, try to use more oil! the main goal is to get rid of water content so that browning can occur.

Glad to see you making videos again! We actually talked about this back in the day but the combination of vertical progression only getting harder and gatekeeping becoming worse I just got turned off the game by the second time I had to take a week break for a vacation. Smilegate was known for following through on promises but people seem to forget how they promised to slow down on vertical progression and work on horizontal content after KR players were complaining about hard vertical. A few months later some KR players complained about lack of content and they went right back to vertical. I was hoping there would be a vast amount of horizontal content by now so I could come back to try the game. Now I'm back on BDO for the foreseeable future. Also you did touch on "whale brain" which is so damn common and makes it feel so much worse back when I had to wait hours in party finder. All these gear score monkeys gatekeeping the hell out of everyone despite they themselves not being able to do the mechs. Hopefully they scale down the vertical and introduce some horizontal so I can feel comfortable coming back.

Note for the set Nightmare > Betrayal on any class that uses mana Salvation/Hallucination on any class that doesn't use mana Hallucination > for classes that don't use mana and most of their abilities are multi hits so preemtive fails to 1 shot Salvation > for classes that don't use mana but have big single hits that preemtive succeeds at killing (you will have to drink potions to not drop low on hp otherwise you lose the buff personally im not a fan of salvation but my reaper was faster with it than hallucination but since i'd drop low on hp often and didn't want to pot i changed to hallucination and deal with it) Keep in mind that you are much quicker at choosing your targets and outputing skills that kill mobs meaning that the RNG of Betrayal is highly inconsistent on top of it requiring you to pick up the orbs (some fast classes just yeet away from the orb spawn) i hated picking them up on my reaper for example I've tested this quite extensively and the only time Betrayal outpaces any of the other sets is when Transcendence procs and the reason that is the case is because transcendence makes YOU kill things quicker so why not just build around you to be killing things quicker instead and not rely on rng and waste time on picking up orbs? i made a 3x3 preemtive contender KBW build on my dumped artist and she literally clears as fast as my main fully decked out gunlancer that spams surge cannon non stop I'd use Betrayal ONLY if your class is some utter garbage at even killing white mobs with preemtive strike because then your class is actually lacking damage and the multiplier from preemtive and nightmare/salvation/hallucination can not make up for it

The ilvl gatekeeping design is an infinite carrot on a stick, i completed my objectives in 2 months and quit the game, then came back tried pvp for 2 weeks or so, played the market making massive profit then quit forever. I cannot deal with the ilvl BS and RBG on top of RNG on top of RNG, its a waste of time and soulcrushing but i think the worst part of it all is the lack of a real social system in the game, this is a single player game IMHO and people who stay are people who rather play alone and only go multiplayer when theyre forced to, which creates a lone wolf community and if thats the case why would i stay here instead of playing, way better, single player games? when an MMO turns into a solo experience, well i have to ask myself, why am i playing this? And 10 times out of 10 the answer is "i dont know" then quit. Made my own guild from the beginning, got to 52 or so members, i actively tried to recruit social people, not forcing them to play together but rather expecting people interested on making the journey together, of the 52 only 6 to 8 players bothered to at least speak, and we played together some times, that was the best part of the game for me, my memories, but some quit, some went afk for the same reasons i stated before, this game is soulcrushing to me. Oh, and i did take care of my guild, i kicked a lot of people who were not social, ghosts and AFKers, i even kicked my ol pals once they quit the game, i tried to create a place for people to communicate and cooperate, even made a discord despite not liking it, but man this game is not made for social people, the irony...an MMO for single players X_D. Without people and wit ha soul crushing environment i just cant, i played BDO and i think BDO is way better than Lost Ark, not by much but yeah, not as depressing. P.S: We were high ilvl players, accepted, helped and had no problem accepting people with lower ilvl. I was on the top 5 ilvl of the guild and we could do high-end content. The guild itself was leveling real well and it was worth joining. Its not like i had a guild nobody would want to join, problem was i didnt wanted ghosts in the guild and made sure to kick them ASAP and still failed to find people. In short, i wanted people, not players.

I think the main reason why I thought valtan was fair even for new players was because the good players could still perform and potentially clutch/carry the fight. A player messing up/falling off/missing counter won't cause the raid to wipe for everyone. No one's fun is hampered. And honestly, being the only one alive for his 'ghost phase' is pretty fun. Future raids just turned into knowledge checks that impact everyone.

I will say, in defense of the color blind argument, the color blind mode in accessibility is kind of iffy in this game. I do stars in my static & I'm color blind, but my raid members call out the color for me. The color blind option for my type of color blindness made all of my demonic skills the same color as the pink/purple/red/whatever vykass mechs such as pools, chains, explosions, etc. I've had it off ever since because it made learning that raid so much harder for me, because i couldn't see what people were talking about. Nowadays, I don't play shadowhunter as much & I understand the game better than I did back then, so it doesn't really impact me nearly as much as it once did, but shapes is one of the few things I genuinely can't see & need the other person to communicate with me on because if she holds up blue, It blends in for me and i straight up can't see it lol

It feels like the person who came up with the meta of "solving" colour blind issues in games by applying a global filter to the whole game never spoke to a colour blind person in their life. I've always found that these options usually make visibility even worse -- on top of changing the art of the whole game, which nobody wants -- and you get developers ans players telling you that creating colour-coded mechanics is fine because they already have colour blind options. All I'd want is to be able to change the colour of important markers. Big sad.

I really enjoyed your take on this. I do find a lot of people are not willing to put their ego aside to just do the mechanics so we can at least clear the gate in a timely fashion. I find a lot of the stagger mechs in the game are fine as long as you are willing to hold skills specifically for that pattern or use a ww. I laughed a bit on your take on colour blindness as a barrier for doing some of the mechs. This is not an excuse. The game has other identifiers outside of colour. For g3 brel geometry, red is a perfect circle around the boss, blue is always double circles on a X pattern, and yellow is a single squashed circle. They have this for G1 vykas as well, where there is a circle indicator on one of the cardinal locations on the gate indicating which one it is. This matches the orb that you're kiting too.

The combat and legion raids are great. The life skills are a good start that needs development. The time gating is ridiculous and should be removed.

RIP BDO content
just came back to the game and using this as a refresher for my hurk
missed this game hope it came back
Ever returning to BDO?
What a weird idea 😂
I hd thought of a build like this the first time i played her but never thought it would work thank you
time to check every slayer gems before accepting
Meaning you want this build or you will gatekeep it?
dude what are you taking about??? Punishing draw not even has weak point. And hurricane sword is really a meme skill in real raid scenario btw.
it does have if you choose the 2nd tripod on the 2nd row
Yep it does with tripod
😂
Instructions are not clear. My kitchen is now on fire, send help
Ok this caught me off guard. As someone who struggles with back attack classes, the whirlwind/hurricane skill might just be a godsend for my Slayer adventure when I get around to building her. Thanks for the insightful video. 😃👍
Dude ngl watching you Hurricane Sword all around Tienis has made me reconsider everything lmao. There are a couple of things though, the Light's Out tripod increases Fatal Sword stagger by A LOT. I know it's slower but it's still quick enough to use in G4 Voldis for example in almost every stagger check and it does half of the bar alone. I did a total of like 10 Trixion parses (5 with Final Blow and 5 with Punishing Draw) and there were multiple times where Punishing Draw outdamaged Final Blow within similar crit rates (about 85-88% without a crit bracelet or crit syn). Those parses can be a little off without a Bible because if Brutal doesn't crit in a FB parse, then that parse will lose vs a PD one that did. However, because all of PD's damage is frontloaded into 2 hits, it is much more consistent, whereas FB has so many hits, some of them might not crit, especially the last one which is the one mainly matters. That can affect the crit rate shown in trixion. The only thing that sucks is that you have to choose between Paralysis Immunity and the dash, and PD is extremely stubby. Sorry for the yap, but I never would have thought about Hurricane Sword and doing the damage comparisons. Reminds me of using Black Mist on Reaper. Thanks for the video!
i pretty much changed my build. I took out final blow for punishing draw, but everything else is meta. I was just tired of how back-ended and wonky the hit box is of final blow. legit have to be hugging the bosses ass to land all the hits.
what an interesting build. i was thinking i absolutely hate the skill final blow. Like its literally just used for C+J, but its a long animation + the final hit has a small hit box. Unlike fatal sword where its HUGE and has so much utility.
i kinda dont like how hurricane sword has to be held to the maximum time to trigger the tornado. I feel like if we could stop it mid way and still trigger the tornado, then it would be a way better filler skill to use while other skills are on cooldown. im still hesitant to try this build since i dont really want to gimp my DPS. I love the idea though. I've been testing your build, and also just switching out final blow for hurricane sword but using furious claw instead of punishing draw. I think it hurts my dps a little bit, but I can imagine in a real raid scenario it might perform better (since final blow is such a wonky skill. back ended small hit box at the end)
thank you for sharing. you're brilliant
Does he teach you how the smoke and fure spikes comes out from the explosión? I want to take the class For that but if he does not teach that im not interest .. in his video trailer from the explosions comes out spikes falling down .. in yours not.
Hey if you accidentally do a physical attack do you have to restart all of episode 1 or just the check point? Please help.
sounds like it's time for the BDO comeback
i think guild wars (1 and 2) is the best MMO story, but I haven't played FF. I definitely enjoyed lost ark's story when I played during release. Its way better than bdo lol
to the kitchen!!!! 😆😆😆
You forgot to tell us if your co-workers liked it!
ah ya they loved it lol, the chicken was really favored, the rice was great, a friend was specific to the taste and said it was good, i made too much rice though lol but i ended up giving some to grandma and aunts and they said it was great also, the sauce not too many people used it they preferred it just without anything as it was flavorful enough!
foood
Fuck yeah! The series continues!!!! Some tips: 1) For the garlic, you can seperate the cloves and smack each one with your knife (flat), the garlic skin will be easier to seperate, also that way you dont have to waste the ends of the garlic. 2) For the Wok, you can look for a cast iron Wok, season it and use it for life. The seasoning will prevent the rice from sticking and allow for a more even cooking of everything else also. The main problem with the stainless steel woks is that the heat is too direct, so things will tend to fuse to the surface of it thus the constant scrapping lol. 3) When browning, try to use more oil! the main goal is to get rid of water content so that browning can occur.
Hope you are well. - I've always lacked confidence with wok cooking, myself - particularly when tossing. - that being said, for those of us without a proper gas burner for our stoves we can still get some of the char flavor if we have a culinary blowtorch.
its not too bad! i just think of the wok as a giant pan now lol
Missed you, glad to see you are well, thanks for the video as always! That is a lot of garlic to be smashing, I would skip the workout today lol.
wait, you still there with the npc's? not even bots around?
Glad to see you making videos again! We actually talked about this back in the day but the combination of vertical progression only getting harder and gatekeeping becoming worse I just got turned off the game by the second time I had to take a week break for a vacation. Smilegate was known for following through on promises but people seem to forget how they promised to slow down on vertical progression and work on horizontal content after KR players were complaining about hard vertical. A few months later some KR players complained about lack of content and they went right back to vertical. I was hoping there would be a vast amount of horizontal content by now so I could come back to try the game. Now I'm back on BDO for the foreseeable future. Also you did touch on "whale brain" which is so damn common and makes it feel so much worse back when I had to wait hours in party finder. All these gear score monkeys gatekeeping the hell out of everyone despite they themselves not being able to do the mechs. Hopefully they scale down the vertical and introduce some horizontal so I can feel comfortable coming back.
On reset day I run thru all the gold earning & endgame raids with my main and the log off til next reset day and rinse & reset. That is Lost Ark in a nutshell. It's a one day game.
great guide as always! the Korean servers just got chaos dungeon changes which made them twice as fast to clear and give more gold , I'm hoping we get those changes on our version soon 😁
Seek the Lord while there's still time to
I'm fairly new to the game, which dungeon is it?
Note for the set Nightmare > Betrayal on any class that uses mana Salvation/Hallucination on any class that doesn't use mana Hallucination > for classes that don't use mana and most of their abilities are multi hits so preemtive fails to 1 shot Salvation > for classes that don't use mana but have big single hits that preemtive succeeds at killing (you will have to drink potions to not drop low on hp otherwise you lose the buff personally im not a fan of salvation but my reaper was faster with it than hallucination but since i'd drop low on hp often and didn't want to pot i changed to hallucination and deal with it) Keep in mind that you are much quicker at choosing your targets and outputing skills that kill mobs meaning that the RNG of Betrayal is highly inconsistent on top of it requiring you to pick up the orbs (some fast classes just yeet away from the orb spawn) i hated picking them up on my reaper for example I've tested this quite extensively and the only time Betrayal outpaces any of the other sets is when Transcendence procs and the reason that is the case is because transcendence makes YOU kill things quicker so why not just build around you to be killing things quicker instead and not rely on rng and waste time on picking up orbs? i made a 3x3 preemtive contender KBW build on my dumped artist and she literally clears as fast as my main fully decked out gunlancer that spams surge cannon non stop I'd use Betrayal ONLY if your class is some utter garbage at even killing white mobs with preemtive strike because then your class is actually lacking damage and the multiplier from preemtive and nightmare/salvation/hallucination can not make up for it
What set would eb the ebst for destroyer? Ive heard we dont even need preemtive strike since we crit allot
@@pauliusnanukas7183 for destroyer it doesn't really matter because he 1 shots everything without any help from engravings or the set for destroyer picking out the skills that you feel comfortable using with the correct tripods will be the determining factor for faster clearing earth eater with the whirlwind tripod full swing with the stand in place tripod Seismic i use the raid tripods and it's fine i use perfect swing for the 2nd room boss to 1 tap it and i use gravity force for generation as it can be used to generate orbs for 2 spenders if you have good enough accessories and weapon quality you can go more than 4 purple skills and with only 2 generators as seismic hammer doesn't need orbs to 1 shot the mobs and the other purple skills can 1 shot them with 2 orbs personally i use enthropy just to guarantee the 1 shot of the 2nd room boss but i think it doesn't really matter
TLDR: I have no hands and don’t want to wipe and prog with other new players.
The ilvl gatekeeping design is an infinite carrot on a stick, i completed my objectives in 2 months and quit the game, then came back tried pvp for 2 weeks or so, played the market making massive profit then quit forever. I cannot deal with the ilvl BS and RBG on top of RNG on top of RNG, its a waste of time and soulcrushing but i think the worst part of it all is the lack of a real social system in the game, this is a single player game IMHO and people who stay are people who rather play alone and only go multiplayer when theyre forced to, which creates a lone wolf community and if thats the case why would i stay here instead of playing, way better, single player games? when an MMO turns into a solo experience, well i have to ask myself, why am i playing this? And 10 times out of 10 the answer is "i dont know" then quit. Made my own guild from the beginning, got to 52 or so members, i actively tried to recruit social people, not forcing them to play together but rather expecting people interested on making the journey together, of the 52 only 6 to 8 players bothered to at least speak, and we played together some times, that was the best part of the game for me, my memories, but some quit, some went afk for the same reasons i stated before, this game is soulcrushing to me. Oh, and i did take care of my guild, i kicked a lot of people who were not social, ghosts and AFKers, i even kicked my ol pals once they quit the game, i tried to create a place for people to communicate and cooperate, even made a discord despite not liking it, but man this game is not made for social people, the irony...an MMO for single players X_D. Without people and wit ha soul crushing environment i just cant, i played BDO and i think BDO is way better than Lost Ark, not by much but yeah, not as depressing. P.S: We were high ilvl players, accepted, helped and had no problem accepting people with lower ilvl. I was on the top 5 ilvl of the guild and we could do high-end content. The guild itself was leveling real well and it was worth joining. Its not like i had a guild nobody would want to join, problem was i didnt wanted ghosts in the guild and made sure to kick them ASAP and still failed to find people. In short, i wanted people, not players.
I think the main reason why I thought valtan was fair even for new players was because the good players could still perform and potentially clutch/carry the fight. A player messing up/falling off/missing counter won't cause the raid to wipe for everyone. No one's fun is hampered. And honestly, being the only one alive for his 'ghost phase' is pretty fun. Future raids just turned into knowledge checks that impact everyone.
I will say, in defense of the color blind argument, the color blind mode in accessibility is kind of iffy in this game. I do stars in my static & I'm color blind, but my raid members call out the color for me. The color blind option for my type of color blindness made all of my demonic skills the same color as the pink/purple/red/whatever vykass mechs such as pools, chains, explosions, etc. I've had it off ever since because it made learning that raid so much harder for me, because i couldn't see what people were talking about. Nowadays, I don't play shadowhunter as much & I understand the game better than I did back then, so it doesn't really impact me nearly as much as it once did, but shapes is one of the few things I genuinely can't see & need the other person to communicate with me on because if she holds up blue, It blends in for me and i straight up can't see it lol
It feels like the person who came up with the meta of "solving" colour blind issues in games by applying a global filter to the whole game never spoke to a colour blind person in their life. I've always found that these options usually make visibility even worse -- on top of changing the art of the whole game, which nobody wants -- and you get developers ans players telling you that creating colour-coded mechanics is fine because they already have colour blind options. All I'd want is to be able to change the colour of important markers. Big sad.
You posted a g2 mvp screen. LOL. Man is doing prokel and he's like dang I can't believe you guys didn't do any damage. LOL
I remember seeing your character on my server like a month ago questing through Elgacia and I was surprised that you were still actively playing :D Im looking forward to more lost ark content!
15:05 very minor correction: you get 3 chances now (used to be 2) and it's RBG, not RGB 25:25 i agree completely, it's a shame smilegate thinks boosting ilvls up to brel is beneficial to new players.. i started last december with the 1445 power pass and it was perfect. forced me to learn legion raids one at a time at ilvl, each first clear was a huge milestone in itself that provided an immense sense of accomplishment, now new players get to play lobby simulator and "chill reclear" jail 31:50 you hit my biggest gripe of the game: gatekeeping. i dont blame the players for it, it's an issue smilegate doesn't seem to know how to address. there's simply too much homework to do, and each wipe, especially for the longer gates, is too time-consuming to give any potential agents the benefit of doubt think kayangel gate 3 rings mech got it right - instead of insta wipes would prefer bosses heal back up and repeat failed mechs, so if you continuously fail mechs the raid eventually wipes from attrition/berserk timer
I really enjoyed your take on this. I do find a lot of people are not willing to put their ego aside to just do the mechanics so we can at least clear the gate in a timely fashion. I find a lot of the stagger mechs in the game are fine as long as you are willing to hold skills specifically for that pattern or use a ww. I laughed a bit on your take on colour blindness as a barrier for doing some of the mechs. This is not an excuse. The game has other identifiers outside of colour. For g3 brel geometry, red is a perfect circle around the boss, blue is always double circles on a X pattern, and yellow is a single squashed circle. They have this for G1 vykas as well, where there is a circle indicator on one of the cardinal locations on the gate indicating which one it is. This matches the orb that you're kiting too.
The combat and legion raids are great. The life skills are a good start that needs development. The time gating is ridiculous and should be removed. The variety of endgame activities is ridiculously small and many things get boring quickly. The PvP is dead. Gatekeeping is ridiculous... That's just imo though
