Any of you wizards out there know if Magic Weapon Mastery is in yet? I guess not since Merlin and the rest aren't in yet.

But yeah armor/shield masteries? Get them all. They're like 79 AP for all 3, with amazing benefits. Extra protection and defense never hurt.

Magic weapon mastery isn't in - my wands didn't reveal any new skills.

For giants: I'm willing to try smithing, I'm rA which allows crafting all types of equipment, albeit somewhat poorly.  So we can sink a lot of resources into crafting and eventually get you an armor!

What they haven't mentioned is the new Saga Bonus thing, which gives extra gold and exp for finishing the chosen episodes of the day (pretty much a daily). It also boosts your chances of getting a rare item from the end box, supposedly.

This gives some incentive to not spam episode 7 all the time. :P

Relevant stuff to me:

Mana shield is nerfed.
5 int = 1 magic attack instead of the old 20=1
Staves and fusion bolt.

Relevant to Girlinhat:

Dex provides pierce.

It removes your defense and protection from the damage calculation of mana shield. It's hardly noticeable when I'm running aroud with at least 5 defense bit it's still there.

Huh, and I was about to get Mana Shield, too... eh. Wonder if it's still worth it? Of course I'm sure it's still better than NOT having it...

I was planning to take a break from Mabi too, but AP/a Flamemare for minimal effort per day is too good to pass up. That is, if I can remember to log in every day, which is doubtful. But I'll try. :P

I want to log in every day for the next month.
BUT I JUST DON'T FEEL LIKE IT, BLAKRGJAGARG.
This is a new kind of lazy for me.

I hate Nexon.

See, I played a different game (League) that most likely has servers in the same place as Mabinogi, which is West Coast/California. I can connect directly to their servers, and get an outstanding ping of only 190~225. That's 0.2 seconds, more than enough to play Mabinogi, too. But I can't connect directly to Mabinogi's servers because they have a stupid policy where they attempt to force Korean IPs to play on Korean servers. This causes exceptional lag and drives me away from playing.

You would think that as long as I play Mabi they won't care where I pay. >_> As a result they lost a customer. Eh.

The dex-gives-pierce sounds awesome. Maybe we can see the revival of archery soon :P

You can minimize the effort even further. Log in a few minutes before it resets, get credit for logging in, wait a few minutes and change channel or relog if needed and get credit for another day. Repeat every 47.5 or so hours. I'm not sure if this resets at midnight server time or at some other arbitrary time during the day.

It's 9AM Central (-9:00) that the server recognizes the day change.

Don't we all? :P

It's not bad by any means. If it'll let you survive 2 Peaca hits, for example, instead of 1, it's worth getting. And there's not much else you'll be doing with the MP unless you're magical.

Yeah, nexon has some.... terrible server policies. The "servers by region" thing should've gone the way of the dodo a long time ago.

No matter how much mana shield has been nerfed it will always be worth it.

Always. :P

Alchemy seems to be an odd skill set. It needs high amounts of HP/SP/MP for high damage. They also removed specific skill crystals so it's more accessible now.

I'm contemplating on how much damage will water cannon do with my 600 MP.
