Re: Unofficial Squaresoft Mud-who's playing? Samurai. You get wall, modest healing, and area attacks. Chemist isn't bad. Monk, you only have chakra, and that has a cooldown, so no use mid battle if you need it. Swordsman berserker works well from what I have seen also. I haven't leveled

Re: Unofficial Squaresoft Mud-who's playing?

Re: Unofficial Squaresoft Mud-who's playing? I like swordsman and monk or chemist because that gives you additional healing options. URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/467106/#p467106 -- Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https

Re: Unofficial Squaresoft Mud-who's playing? I feel like there's a lot of misunderstanding happening here.First off, the over-the-top sarcasm doesn't work. I don't want everything handed to me. I am generally happy to grind a job till I get better abilities. I don't need to be spoon-fed

Re: Unofficial Squaresoft Mud-who's playing? When it comes to the question of qinfo, I'm coming at this as someone who's been staff on a MUD. Someone who's spent shit loads of time building an area from nothing, spending massive amounts of time filling that area with little details

Re: Unofficial Squaresoft Mud-who's playing?

Re: Unofficial Squaresoft Mud-who's playing? I would. The player base and administration are generally helpful, and no one is allowed to lie on newbie so you can ask away if something is confusing. The parser may seem restricted, but the game has a robust alias system that you can use

Re: Unofficial Squaresoft Mud-who's playing? Thanks @24 and 25Yeah I did think it was crazy people could level that fast, though raids definitely help now. I just wasn't sure if I was just missing something super fundamental. I'm all for having a character that can be as diverse as it can

Re: Unofficial Squaresoft Mud-who's playing? Assuming you can find someone to do that, sure. I had a couple of drags, and that's nice, but I daresay there is something inherently wrong with a MUD if your answer to the grind is "find someone to speed you through it".

Re: Unofficial Squaresoft Mud-who's playing?

Re: Unofficial Squaresoft Mud-who's playing? @5 have someone drag you around the moon or some high level place where the monsters dont use aoe attacks. No xp caps means you can gain a stupidly large amount of xp. Trickers give 100 exp per kill, plus there are ap and xp egg accessories

Re: Unofficial Squaresoft Mud-who's playing? If you're a cyborg, stuff unlocks by level, so level matters for those. Also, most missions also unlock by level, and levels give you stat points and, consequently, let you access better gear/better stuff. Levels are the way you progress. So

Re: Unofficial Squaresoft Mud-who's playing?

Re: Unofficial Squaresoft Mud-who's playing? Be prepared for a few things though:1. Death can be crippling. You lose 15% or so of your exp when you die, and then you're a ghost for about 2 minutes, unable to move or interact (you can talk and that's it). In that time, you'd better hope you
