I have a few questions I'm confuzled about....

Player Questions Started Last reply 14 posts
1) With the new penalty upon Death, it only applies is PvE AND in cases where you would have dropped your items? Just would like a confirmation to this.
Cause I need to start farming AA, and with the newbie buffs, it would be stupid to advance my dwarf poler higher than lvl 25.

2) Why are Clan names now have different colors? I so far seen Orange, Blue and Red. What's up with those?

3) This one is for the Summoners, more than anyone else. I have lately been using my Reanimated Man for PvE cause mob that I'm after would be quite inefficient to simply nuke away at (2x HP, High M.deff resist and all that good stuff). So now, I can very safely pull 2-3 of these mobs and finish them off w/o much problems. However, I find that the Reanimated Man which is a PvE summon (-15% xp) has less skills than my PvP summon. WTH? Reanimated even lacks the "Pick Up Loot" button and I can't place ANYTING in it's inventory. The last 2 are the real dissapointments I have in Reanimated.

So I wonder, do the ES and PS have summons that lack these mandatory skills/abilities as well or is it just Necros?

the penalty only applies to pve and has the same chance of happening as of dropping an item
kinda makes it harrsh for ppl who die and just say "woot more sp"

all clans i seen had blue names i assume those are lvl 6 clans
today i seen a red name and the guy told me his clan had negative rep points

no summons have a pick up button and none have inventories
if they did we could use pots on them which may unbalance pvp abit
****it. I was hoping that the Summons would be similar to Pets, but oh well. :(

Thanks Nameless.
well if i may be as bold to call myself a summoner
us summoners have been asking for a inventory for a while but i can see how hard it would be to kill us if we could spam pots on a servitor

thats prolly secondary to the fact that we cant use ch buffs and the new herbs dont really help us as much as other classess
haha. awesome.

didn't know about the CH buffs not working on summons either. :[

on the other hand, summons don't have CP bars. so if it's not Erased, a nuker or an archer can make a quick handy work out of the summon. why would it matter if you can have pots on the summon?

than again, it sounds like this has been an ongoing battle. so I won't talk about it anymore.
tbh i dont know much about other summoners (pretending to be one once again)
but i havent killed a mob from 58+ without a golem out and i know the little guy contributes at least 50% of the damage done to a mob
so if i use a swift attack potion gaining 15% attack speed it really just adds up to 7.5% extra damage as apposed to any other DD that would actually gain the full 15%

i think some summoners have attack and cast speed buffs so it may only apply to ws da and necro
but always my major gripe about being a summoner

(pretending to be one once again)



not to piss anyone off, but frankly, I think Necro's are much better with their summons than the summoners actually might be.

Being a Half Nuker, Half Summoner and have a whole arsenal of Debuffs is simply awesome.
necros should only get 1 summon wich takes 90% xp, no other summons (excluding pre-40)
are you saying they should take away the extra summons and replace them with a few more nukes then?

i'm game for that :p

2) Why are Clan names now have different colors? I so far seen Orange, Blue and Red. What's up with those?



I seriously expected the color to change depending on the amount of positive/negative rep points you have (like 0-2000 light blue, 2001-5000 dark blue, 5001-10000 violet or something like that), but I think NCSoft once again has introduced a new feature which is pretty much useless. From what I have seen, it is simply

red=negative rep points
blue=positive rep points

(and i guess white would be 0 rep points, but have not seen anybody with that so far, maybe "0 rep points" belongs to blue, because it is "not negative"?)

orange btw is academy (so if you target an academy member, you do not get any information about the main clan's rep points).

I have seen clans which I know have few rep points and others with a lot of rep points, and all were the same blue.

... and all of them were pretty much unreadable, at least for me.

exactly

it's bad enough half the people have blue names, having clans with blue names is horrible.

actually i mean as a crafter
necro is a joke as far as summoning goes
Yup, red = negative points, dark blue = positive reputation points, yellow/orange = academy member.
