Game Opinion in current state!

I just want to ask what everyone thinks are significant points to be picking up this game now in its current state. I played before but forgot my account hence having a "new" forum account but I made it to 50 warrior like years ago and enjoyed it. looking to convince friends to play with me so I may continue, what are some main points I can discuss to help?

Good new player classes I can suggest to them would be nice too!

 

If your friends are looking for a group game to play, literally every single thing in the game can be played with a group and works perfectly well. The game also isn't very grindy until the late endgame, you can feasibly get up to the mid 90's off of just quests, area exploration, dungeons and killing posts and the time you spend at lower levels is just as, if not more fun than being in the endgame so it's not like most other MMOs where you're having no fun while rushing to the endgame so you can actually enjoy your time playing. There's also a lot to do in the game at every level range and most areas are pretty optional. You're realistically going to visit most places since they all have quests to do but if there's a place you don't particularly like odds are there's another area of the same or similar level range you can hang out in instead while progressing so there's a lot of choice in how you get to the endgame if you want.

This is less so about the game, but the community is also pretty small which makes getting involved a lot easier. When you give feedback, odds are the people who need it will see it and they might even respond so it never really feels like you're speaking into a void.

If I were to recommend classes for a group, I would say at least one person should be either mage or shaman since they heal (it'll give you more reason to play as a group), archers or assassins are the best DPS classes in the game so you want at least one of those and no offense, but to be honest warrior isn't really great right now so unless you're committed to playing it I wouldn't really recommend it. Classes are a bit hard to recommend now though since the new update will probably shake up a lot of how we look at them, warrior might become the best class and archer might be comparably horrible so just be aware of that I guess.

 

I just literally noticed 2.0 as well! which would be a big factor. thanks for the heads up

 

dungeon keys now work for 4 players, so if you have more than 4 people playign then you shouldd keep this in mind to save your pocket
raids are unlocked at level 50 ish but are really hard to do at level tho, they need 3-4 players and are pretty hard so it could be a fun challenge
boss altars are a fun experience to do with friends(sort of) but the drop sharing will be very scuffed if multiple people fight the boss
boss altars are a good challenge tho
/class and backtrakcing are usually good solutions to bugged stuff
/kill if you are stuck somewherre with more t han 6 soul points
idk what else to put
