As long as a fire ring's equipped, it has a random chance of going off in battle. It usually decides battles that are normally stalemates. Generally, you won't know if someone attacks you, but if you attack someone, it starts off as an orange number and says something like "Your fire ring blasted (player name) for X damage."

Just wondering, is it wise to invest on my unarmed skill? I know there are weapons (claws and stuff) but I am not quite sure if the weapons are as strong as others, or if the avaliability of the weapon is common.

Keep to the normal weapons. You'd be better off, in my opinion.

is it a good idea to stick with only one type of weapon or develop the other skills as well?

I have ALL 4 rings:
I remember when I was battling my way to lvl 10, I sometimes had 2 blasts of the ice so about 80% speed lowered for the other player. That was a great fight but short.

i've actually had three or four blast from the ice ring in a few long fights so it probably takes the 40% from the last value... one blast=40%, two=64%, three=78.4%, and so on

anyway... i'm taking a short break to catch-up on some real-life things and was curious if your age changes during an Account Freezing?

Speaking of rings, anyone have a list of where to get them? Post 'em in the member area so the world can't see. :D

I have a question. Does anyone know what actually effects how much experience you get after winning a battle? Is it the level of your opponent or is it their networth or something else? Thanks.

I'm pretty sure it's their networth.

How many rings and stuff can you have on at once? Just one? So its a weapon, an armor, and a ring?

4; there are about seven rings in the game in total.

are any of the weapons better than the other. right now im using the poll, as a xion thief, should i be using a dif weapon or does that matter? dont want to gain experience in the wrong skill.

It's just personal preference as far as I know. The different types of weapons give you different bonuses. An axe will reduce your speed, but it will give you a strength bonus while a pole does the opposite. A blade would be the middle ground between both. It depends on what you'd like to concentrate on, I don't think there's a difference beyond that.

I've got a question of my own. What's the deal with Holy and Evil? What benefits from blessing a weapon/armor does each side give? I think I read somewhere that it's better to bless weapons as Evil and armors as Holy? Is this accurate?

holy> speed bonus +20%
weapon/armor factor +40%

evil> weapon/armor factor +100%

weapons> blades are great, axes even better, especially if you're a power whore and poles are very, very weak....

Agility: 12.2408

to gain the most per endurance, you'll need the HQ. But that can take some time. (+200/-200 alliance)

As for the gym, there is a way to gain the max but its a game secret (i'm not sure if this part of the forum is locked or not)

yeah, so I'm thoroughly confused by this....

"You would have used the herb ring but you stabbed SensenmanN in the head for 13 damage (115 hp remaining)"

why bother even saying the herb ring thing

Posted: Sun May 29, 2005 10:08 am
by Moon Hunter
because if you had less hp, it would have healed you...

and hitting instead of using herb ring delivers unblockable damage...

is investing in stocks worth it? lookin at ways to make some extra cash :?.

well, the stocks i would consider more as low liquidity bank reserve...
they are more less dead, they only move up when people buy stocks, but people usually ignore them....
