More like 40,000 tria, or 400,000 tria.

The whipe out is a need, that\'s obvious, but, if we are supposed to try the game implementations, we need to have access to them. i mean, to try any spell, i must have 2000 tria to buy it, beside the trias needed for training, i have been playing for a week or so, and i got arround 700 tria after hours of boring rat-skining.

It is just a personal opinion, and i\'m sure that you have discused this a hundered times, so this post is useless.

sorry, gronomist, i\'ve read and re-read your post, but i just can\'t understand what you mean.  care to explain?

oops...the whole time i thought...all the characters will be deleted and not the player accounts.
I mean everywhere it says that characters will be lost...not players.... strange how it escaped me that i will have to re-register.

A little on the flaming side?

Anyway the devs have explained that this will be the only major wipe in PS and you wont have to expect this again (I think there will be minor wipes of certien things later on) Its just one wipe and besides when the wipe happens Im sure new things would have been implimented so more ways of making tria is a little easier for starting users.

Think about it plain and simple. A fresh new start for everyone. At least now, you can go waist your money and try new things. Explore a bit and get ready for the next release (SB?). Anyway... theres always conflicts with any decision and   I would know, iv been here since 03\' trying to help. Iv been on and off with this game and let me tell you, you never know what to expect. I never got my stuff transfered from MB to CB and you know what, im not that mad. Life goes on, live with it. -Shit Happens-
Of course you should fight fire with fire, you should fight everything with fire.   :P  Xantherus Icer  :P

This is just another small reason why the wipe is necessary for a level playing field, a balanced economy, and a cheater-free community.


i\'m having trouble seeing the current design as a balanced economy... when i first started, i would die facing the weak rats. and with no training and no trias to get training, the only way to earn money was to kill rats... kinda hard to scratch out any kind of living when your only source of income kills you...

The wipe will be a full wipe. NOTHING will be transfered. Otherwise there is no point in doing the wipe. The only transfer there will be is the same transfer we had when going from MB to CB. i.e. you\'ll be able to migrate your MB char again.

Greetings,


so those that were in MB will have a head start on *everyone* else?

... so much for everyone being put on a level playing field ...

what will be, will be...

I think they mean you can keep your chars name, not its stats :)

I do hope I can finally make my reall char now, with the name that didnt extually get into CB after the migration. It got stuck XD

Well that\'s how it was when CB started too. Every MB player got a chance to migrate crystals and they were converted to trias. The MB->CB migration will simply be repeated.

True, I wish tefusang dropped more than one tooth sometimes or more rogues dropped stuff, but I can see why the devs are doing it this way..
given than there is an impending wipe, if there were more ways to earn tria, more players would have more to lose with a wipe.  Then there will be more complaints or pleas to keep their money.

Hopefully once the wipe happens and all these bugs are worked out THEN monsters can drop more and there will be more quests with higher payouts so we can earn money faster.
