Caught a ride on the local gondola today, after a two straight nights of completely neglecting it. Was kinda neat.
Every few minutes, the gondola docks at the bottom of the main bridge leading out of town, and an NPC shouts over the System channel about it being ready to board. Looks like some environmental flavor at first, but it actually takes you to somewhere mildly important early on if you manage to catch it.
Where does this gondola lead, (You) might ask?

It leads to THIS four-legged fellow, stationed within the astral observatory high atop Thereall's tallest tower.
Even if you aren't directed to him through some other quest, it's still worth checking-in with this oldster at during your teenage levels. One of his quests gives you a full stack of 999 (!!) Fighting Spirits, in both STR and INT-flavored varieties.
Pressing [F9] while your supply of Fighting Spirits is equipped will boost your attacks by a decent amount, but every hit ticks one point off the Spirit's total. They're apparently worth saving for tough fights, but since you're given so many of them from this guy (and better ones supposedly show up later), you may as well just use these quest rewards as you see fit.

Guild creation requires being level 36, apparently to prevent GvG abuse (from what I've been told by one of the locals).
At the rate we're going, we should have our banner up in just a couple of nights or so. Not ideal, but not the worst we've come across previously.

After plenty of questing (so much questing...), a few of us decided to give a modular "Star Core" dungeon a shot to mix things up.
We braved the unexpectedly well-lit depths, carving a path through all manner of horrifying grotesquaries. Swarms of leeches! Mechanical werewolves! Ambulatory corn...?
Look, all that matters is every single one of them was an affront to all twelve Gods, and needed to be thoroughly purged, which we did. Great way of gaining EXP too, definitely recommend.

Star Core dungeons are made up of three parts: red, yellow, and blue cores, each contributing to some part of the randomly-generated labyrinth you'll be running through.
Yellows definitely influence which tileset gets drawn, but I'm not entirely sure how the other two colors change things just yet. Still, it's pretty neat that there's a dial-a-dungeon feature in this title for casual party grinding, to go along with the actual, quest-specific dungeons you're occasionally lead into.

padded content.
classes were created to waste your time starting the game over from level 1 because you just can't go without a healer ok? or a tank ok? you VILL level a whole new character for a single role, goy... and you VILL be happy

I mean, seeing a trinity and going "I MUST MAKE ALL THREE" is low IQ stuff. I can't humour you with anything intelligent if that's all you have.

If you were half as intelligent as you pretend to be, you know why "padded content" is made even funnier after you named your games.

But you'll cry some more about how I didn't beat you, I bet.

whats the playercount like?

>>2222751
however many people you see in the sceenshot, maybe 7 people max. and that's who you'll see running around leveling cause these games rarely get new people.

>>2222774
The group hasn't played Eden Eternal yet. If you're wanting a cutesty looking game with on the fly class switching, keep your eyes on mmodventures. You can fight monsters at the same level even if your class is level 1. Just means it levels up faster. Hopefully that'll sort out a bit of your autism. I haven't played it in over a decade thoughevermore. Don't know if it will ever win cause it got 0 votes last poll.

I apologize to the anon I was having a debate. A janny saw our argument and warned me for a reason you can't even select in the drop down, so the mandate of janny as a personal arbiter says you won. MMOs with classes are shitty. I kneel.

Goodness sake, completely forgot to catalog this morning's happenings...! Time to fix that.
A few more photos than my usual batch of uploads this time around, so I'll try to keep the added flavor text somewhat brief (by my standards anyway).

We begin with a trip north of the city, to the rolling green hills of the [Ancient Ruins]. Despite its name, there weren't actually many ruins to be found here - it's more of a highland swamp than anything, really.
There IS a rather conspicuous pyramid found in the eastern half of the map, however. Who's to say when we'll be making our way there.

The morning crew was keen on some dungeoneering to bump our levels up, and one of us had a fancy new two-floor Level 25 Star Core to try out for the occasion.
Before that, however, some admiring of the newest (and soon-to-be-removed) addition to the team: The finest frogge you ever did see.
Sure, it was only Level 1, and could barely survive a fight with even the most basic of enemies outside of town... But it's cute in an ugly sort of way.

The bulk of our night took place within the dusty shafts of a thoroughly grotesquearie-infested mining network, and good lord, did we ever get a workout while traipsing around.
Within the first group of monsters, it became clear that we were very much underprepared, undergeared, and underleveled for the occasion, with every single encounter putting all our skills (and MP reserves) to the test. Still, despite the odds handily being stacked against us, we pressed on regardless.
The frogge seen in the previous photo proved to be more of a hindrance than a help, and thus stayed behind (after it inadvertently pulled an entire room we were attempting to retreat from, nearly wiping the party). For the best, really.

>>2223161
Nothing is gayer than greentexting a response. Might as well filter the post. But if you're obnoxious and you're a regular, this will always follow you.

With time running low, we managed to find the key leading to the final room of the Mines, revealing an absolutely titan-sized Goblini to take down.
Not in the cards today, however. With how much we were barely staying alive against just the regular fodder, there was no chance in hell we'd have ANY sort of shot against the big guy here. Best course of action was to promptly panic, and sprint for the exit.
Yes, my UI really is this small.

It's neat, in an admittedly somewhat generic sort of way.
Bit dull when played solo, but pretty fun when in a group. Sort-of a cross between Lineage II and a more traditional themepark-style MMO, with 2000s animu aesthetics.
We'll be focused on this one for another week-and-a-half, so feel free to swing by if you're curious.

Wanting to progress my Tailoring level just a bit higher before heading off to bed, it's back to the [Ancient Ruins] for me, this time scouting-out the scene for some spare [Raw Hide]. However, the monsters which drop [Raw Hide], Thunder Giant Trappers, only spawn during the day.
It is here where the Day/Night cycle actually comes into effect beyond mere aesthetics, as certain enemies will only show up during one point of time or the other. If you can't find a monster you're after despite it being listed in a quest's description, that might be why.
Alternatively, you might need to use an inventory item on something in the environment, such as using an [Igniter] on the bones out infront of the Bear Cave in Hercules Hill, to summon the appropriate monsters for part of your Level 3 tradeskill quest. (Very specific example, but it's caught several of us off-guard already).

Finally, a quick jaunt over to Melody Valley to see the sights before signing off.
The raw, chaotic energies emanating from this mercifully-tethered World Crystal were causing some real havoc to the surrounding area, manifesting a cacophony of musically-inclined phantasms every which way. Was bit much for just a single, low-level Priest to handle, however. Hopefully I'll have some reinforcements for the next foray into this wild place.

Saw you disappear and assumed there was some trouble reconnecting, I tried logging out and back in myself, but I encountered no problems.
I'm not sure what could be causing it, there seemed to be connection issues due to the frequent disconnects, I hope it's resolved quickly.

How do you move between maps?

>>2223455
There should be a pad with a hologram you simple walk onto. If it doesn't work, that area is probably level-restricted.

I managed to fix this by extracting a new copy of the game and attempting to update that. I was able to connect with the fresh client, then I canceled the update and logged back on with my old one. I have no idea why this worked.

Made some decent progress tonight, finishing-up much of what Thereall has to offer and moving out for the long haul westward to the (presumably) prestigious commercial hub of Gold Port. Onward and upward for us fledglings, no doubt.
Nevermind the no-doubt dozens of requests from the citizens of Thereall we've accepted and callously left unfinished in our wake. Party bonus EXP when dungeoneering is just way too good to ignore on this server, them's the breaks.

With new sights to see, and a new city to be stationed in (one which actually has a Refinery to throw all your unwanted equipment into), you'd think we would've left our old dirt-poor selves behind and found new riches in these golden lands... But you'd very much be wrong.
Prices on skill upgrades are starting to get rather steep for what little scratch we're earning, and even the prospect of making your own gear - something which becomes expected at around Level 25-30 or so - can be alarmingly expensive if you don't have a network of fellow artisans to share materials with.

On that note, investing in your chosen tradeskill is very much an unavoidable part of this title.
So far, we're sporting one Blacksmith, one Tailor (myself), one Mechanic, one Card Developer, and one Alchemist, each one of us sharing resources and helping out as we can. Just short a Jeweler, if anyone feels up for stepping into that role.
Actually do quite like how scrappy progression feels during the early goings, really emphasizes how important the group dynamic is in this title. Although I also hope our Gold income starts trending upwards before long, or else things could start to get pretty dicey.

A busy night this one was, as several among the Real SEA Hours™ crew press ever-onward through the upper 20s en route towards finally founding our rightful Guild.
While much of our time tonight was spent squirreled away in crafting workhouses, scoring a few notable upgrades to our existing 'kit, we weren't only busy slaving at Tailor's tables and Alchemy labs. Any self-respecting member of the Zodiac wouldn't dare turn down the chance for some Dungeoneering, and indeed, this Level 25 Star Core dungeon provided ample opportunity to put some of that new gear to good use.

Check out the fancy armor on this one!

Her ornate get-up isn't just for show either (although it does make for quite a sight). Starting at Level 30, provided you've assigned all the appropriate skills along the way, activating your Astrolabe will don your Zodiac-specific armor, grating immense power and/or endurance sure to topple anything brazen enough to stand your way.
...Or more specifically, their Zodiac's respective Armor granted them about ~2,000 HP and MP, plus whatever other stats and bonuses their Zodiac Skills bestowed as well, lasting for about a minute or so before dissipating. Each Zodiac's armor has their own perks, with some befitting tanks, others specialized for DPS, and some just being decent "all-rounder" picks, and every choice comes with a complimentary full-restore of HP and MP on-use. Takes quite a while to build your Zodiac meter, however, so pick your transformation times wisely.

Excellent for clutch saves and becoming your party's main character while it lasts.

Nestled within the deepest room of the flooded temple stood a frighteningly familiar foe: Big Red, the very same giant-sized goblin which ran through our ranks during our wayward trip through the Forgotten Mines.
Our initial efforts to take revenge certainly didn't go as planned, however, with him and his shambling squadron of spellcasters quickly blindsiding both our tanks, forcing a tactical retreat.
Second time was the charm though, as he and his minions were no match against the unbridled might of the Sacred Cloth (not that you can see anyone wearing such in this photo - didn't really have time to line-up a good 'shot).
