Yup, guild is still around!Took a personal break from the game some months ago, but it ended up being way longer than intended. Rolling back in, seems alot of things that have changed/been added, so I guess it's time to relearn everything and feel like I did back at the start heh.
Also, Is the guild still around/active these days? Wouldnt mind joining back up if possible.

Ehhhh.... That means the event junk pearl right and not the cash shop currency?
Hmm, no real loss than. I probably only have about 25-30 on me. The DUO Crescent Ring needed 50 and I got it once already before I stopped playing again recently. Didn't have the courage to attempt a tri. >_> it taunts me in my inventory.
Do you mean you got it once from the event? If so, no further exchanges are possible. You can only do that once. If not, then you've done away with a free 500M silver, since they doubled the amount of pearls you receive per day last week. Either way, I can take care of selling your leftovers if you hand me your info.
I'm loving Maehwa so far. My FFXI Samurai fix, she seem to be able to spam blade aoe abilities very often (Meikyo Shisui all the time), and I love the dashing/mobility.
Oh I've made many choices. I have Sorceress, Witch, Kunoichi, Tamer, Mystic, and Dark Knight at 56. Below 56 are Maehwa 51, and Ranger 50. After those two I might get Berzerker for the cool looking costumes.I don't have one, but seeing Maehwa's fight is always such a treat. Especially when they get their Awakening. I think you made a good choice.

There is something about the kerispear is just isn't as nice. I think the focus on stabs vs a lot of her original clean arcs leaves a lot to be desired. That said, can't deny the upgrade in raw power.I don't have one, but seeing Maehwa's fight is always such a treat. Especially when they get their Awakening. I think you made a good choice.
I do really like her blade but in terms of raw power I find her lacking. Definitely the flashiest and prettiest attack animations though. I like some of the other characters but it is hard to deny Maehwa has a certain grace to it.

Recovery animations are also nicer with the blade even if far less practical.
Her blade stuff looks sweet, but I am fond of the spear myself. Thinking about it, I have always had a thing for spears in games....
Heathen ;)
Music and armor variety is great too.Good times (not FFXIV, horrible times there, but nice graphics and animations).
Yeah I like how it looks, still runs well for now in the city. I wish I could tone some things down though, like the DOF, and I don't know if I would like the gpu running at 70% for the amount of time I afk in the city, though at the marketplace it's only 50% so that's normal.
Also since I'm not a PVP player, I look forward to exploring the world and being blasted with magical visuals like this alien ship landing.

Also we get a tier 7 white horse as a event reward for Remastered. It comes with a Divine Lahr Arcien Horse Gear Set chest. Doesn't seem like any info in the tooltips indicate that they are temporary.

Pretty sure devs said Remastered mode wouldn't impact the performance. I did well in not believe them.
It looks very pretty though, that's for sure.
They definitely optimized the game a good bunch. People are reporting higher fps across the board. Myself, Remastered mode seems to run about as well as Very High did previously. Maybe a tad worse, but I am not sure. I haven't tried Ultra yet, which I think is even more demanding. But then they even write it's not meant to be played with.
Nah, I always like looking at screen shots! I'm happy you're posting them
What am I looking at? The bird on the shoulder? That isn't new! Some pets will sit on your shoulder when idle. I believe most bird types will do this. My halloween Cat in the Witch's Hat does it too and the hat clips through my character's head >.< Grey Moon cat can jump up on the shoulder as well, I'll see if I have a screen shot somewhere.I saw this and I definitely think this is a remaster feature. Poor tamer.
This game looks so pretty but I feel like I'd be incredibly overwhelmed coming in this late in the game. :(

Not the case for me, I lost almost 10 fps with regular mode and Remastered runs another almost 10 down. Basically I was getting around 50 fps before the patch outside towns, now around 40 and around 30 with Remastered. Inside towns I have the same performance so it seems to be GFX stuff.
Of course my PC is ancient as fuck but still...
The breast enhancement, or maybe skin shaders/shininess, I was trying to make it seem like tamer was jealous in a "Oh come on Jim Carrey Liar Liar.gif" way. It just seemed in my face when I was at the storage npc. It seemed different or maybe because I was looking for new remastered features it stood out.What am I looking at? The bird on the shoulder?

That last pic. His side burns look like they are on top of his glasses. Worst graphics ever. /s
I still need that sword on the DK. I really like the swirly bit.
They have steadily decreased the amount of effort required to reach the higher levels. We were introduced to a form of afk grinding one week ago, and received higher exp rates this Wednesday. Not to mention, anyone logging on within the next 5 days receives a very decent horse, which is your primary means of transportation. I'd say jumping into BDO right now is easier than it ever was.
The game has a lot of systems in place, but please note that most of them are absolutely optional, and hardly any player invests time in all of them. The trick is to concentrate on what you enjoy doing in this game, since everything brings with it some form of progression. If you feel like giving the game a go, we'll gladly help you out, be it here, on our Discord, or as part of our little guild. The latter NA only unfortunately.
Thank you for the very thorough response! Fortunately I'm NA as well so I may take you up on that offer. How is the Mystic class, they look awesome and I have a weakness for monk like classes.
Strong as fuck. Admittedly I am about a month or two out of date but I don't think balances have changed too drastically. Definitely a very reliable, strong pick. Her attacks are speedy, strong and looks great. Her attacks feels smooth and aren't too technical. She is also naturally tanky, to the point where I had her running world bosses undergeared and she still outperforms some of my better geared characters.
I enjoyed my Mystic a lot. Both her first main weapon and her awakening weapon.
When it comes to classes in BDO I definitely think it is worth going for the one that you feel speaks to you most.
Leveling Mystic is super easy too. I didn't need health pots or much of anything. I probably didn't even need many buttons from what I remember. Down + R mouse, and L right after could carry me to 56 easy. Not one punch but thousand punches.
Dash, vacuum enemies together (which I never really felt that they gathered when I do it, maybe I expected too much from that ability), then punch them to death.
Maaaaaaaan the look so awesome! Will probably check it out this weekend. I'll let you know if I have any further questions. Thank you everyone, I really appreciate it.
I have no idea how they got that shot, it blew me away. I didn't even know Mystic summoned Leviathan!
I couldn't even get a shot doing an emote. Told the whole guild to sit by mistake. I have the feeling this is a team effort. A camera person and the actor.
