Wartune Post #9 - Peoples anger issues and new updates!

Hey guys I am back with a new update for you all! So lately I have gotten back to Wartune after being burnt out for a few months, and its good to be back! But what this also means is that people get angry at you for whatever reasons they can think of for trying to help others. Its facepalmingly stupid, but heres an example of what happens:

 

This is usually the response I get on Armor Games for trying to help people, however people like lylatcruizer are kind enough to help out and try to weed out people like this.

What I usually post for people to read I usually wait from four to five pages before posting one of these, and usually I'll add something different to them each time to make sure new people know what to do.

Now onto the character updates! Below is what you'll see after some months of hard work and patience I believe I could've had more if I didn't get so burnt out, but you gotta take what you can get and work even harder!

 

Thats all for now and I'll be sure to update you guys from time to time. Later!

Wartune Free Items!

Hey guys its been quite awhile, but I've been taking a long break from Wartune to get myself relieved from how burnt out I was from playing it, though today I do have something to share with you all and that is some free items you can get on MMOBombs giveaways page! You can find it by clicking this link here. But that is all I wanted to share today and I'll start posting my new stats and astrals so you guys can see what has been going on for awhile now! Later.

Wartune Post #8 - On how the challenge fares so far!

Heya guys and sorry I haven't posted an update for quite awhile, however I did want to let you know that I have took a bit of a break on Wartune and blogging for a bit to just get a breather, but I'll probably do some updates pretty soon here! So I am slowly progressing on the guild skills front, since I haven't played in a bit I do need to get a better Honor rank ASAP so I can atleast get Crusader or higher, my buildings are all maxed out, my astrals are slowly progressing (I still haven't gotten a Holy Force, yet..). and my Tech is almost fully maxed out for my level. I'll be sure to post screenshots later to show you guys.

Wartune Post #7 - World Boss and how I deal with it

Heya guys and just wanted to do a post about the World Boss, today. So some of you may wonder how I get most of my Gold/Daru I normally try to see if I can find people like Rainlucis for Gold, yet I always don't find that nice person, though after WB I'll be sure to check so I can cash in their gold before they can or atleast the players around my level range anyways. So heres a screenshot of my World Boss ranking for today.

So my rank was 40 and I got about 202k Gold/Daru with maxed Voucher Inspiration, however what really was saving me was my upgraded Goddess Blessing which was giving me 12% damage overall which means with the Maxed Voucher (200) Inspiration I could tank anywhere from 2 to 3 hits which is pretty great for my level since I see alot of higher level 40s struggle with WB alot of the time which is sad to hear actually a level 30 outdoing a level 40.. but thats for another time. Now later on I'll be sure to include my ranking without the Max Voucher Inspiration, but I'll still have my Refined Goddess Blessing (RGB) on. Well, thats all for now, but stay tuned and I'll be sure to give you an astral update and probably an Aurora server update as well!

Wartune Post #6 - Battleground Players & Proper Character Building

Before I delve into this subject about proper character building let me share a story about what happened in BG today. So a person named Midgar who was a level 39 VIP with full clothes and wings had only around 4,300 or so PATK and was an archer with about 14k BR average. Now at that level I would not only have higher BR, but way way higher physical attack. This goes to show that people level too fast and some people like Midgar get way too cocky in BGs or group arena thinking they're the best and they can kill everyone. This isn't true at all.

Since, this game is about being patient and taking your time doing certain things. Taking things the slower route will pay off eventually, people generally just don't like to do harder things and stray to the easy path. Okay, so lets show the stats of level one wings.

PATK +120
MATK +120
PDEF +120
Max HP +1200
PATK +2%
MATK +2%
PDEF +2%
MDEF +2%
Max HP +2%

Now, since Midgar called me a 'noob' because I called him/her out on their character building I can see that without the wings s/he would have about 4,100 or so PATK, but they also mentioned that they had red astrals 'apparently' and that doesn't make them a 'noob' or anything. While red astrals are powerful, yes, but unless you level them up and have a decent combination of them then theres no real point about bragging about that you have red astrals, really.

However, let us get into the character building part. Depending what your class is you may have to have to deal with the fact that there will always be someone better than you in your class and generally, so if you feel bad about losing alot then don't let it get you down. Mages need MATK mainly for their attack stat, while Knights and Archers need PATK, so what that means is that one more class outweighs the other in terms of what damage is being used this is quite important to know and you will have to use that sort of mentality to see what you can do to defend against it.

It doesn't matter which class you are, you will always need PDEF and MDEF you can get these simply by getting guild skill, upgrading your tech to get the opposite attack stat you use, and astrals. This is why you tend to see alot of higher level players have a decent amount of another attack stat its because it can be used to boost their defense of that type. Such as PATK giving more PDEF and MATK for MDEF. Normally its a sterotypical thing to say that a Knight has low MDEF, this isn't always true at all. Again if you build a proper character you can defend against both with not as much as an issue as you thought, but it all depends how patient and dedicated you are.

As for Critical I find it very good for World Bosses mainly, but not too much for PvP or PvE unless I have a Determination astral which boosts crit damage in a percentage. Block is normally used by Knights, but anyone can use it and it acts as an extra defense of sorts, it can lower the amount of damage done to you and it may be something to think about later on at way higher levels, but don't worry about it early, early on. Some of the top Wartune players on Armor Games have used the block astral, but then again they were high leveled with really decent BR.

As for Charisma I tend to usually train this with guild skills at the very end, because Charisma mainly gives you more Troop Count and most people don't really bother with it anyways, however don't get me wrong it is still useful in its own ways. I feel that its not really worth it to even use Charisma increasing gems because either way your bodyguards will most likely get killed off anyways I tend to think of them as meatshields really, but later on they become fairly useful. Such as the Gryphon stun, Angels heal, and the Knights charge, of course there are also Templars and Warlocks. Plus, you would be better off using gems that would give you more defense or attack if you're feeling confident in your choice (you can always unsocket the gem anyways).

Most people use HP gems because they feel like they don't have enough, however if they don't have the proper defense stats to back it up then they'll find that HP fairly useless, if you feel like you have decent defense stats and think it can be alright to use HP gems, but otherwise don't even bother unless you can back it up.

My suggestion is to find a guild with a decent skill tower and guild shop so you can start leveling your guild skills and buy potions/upgrade stones for enchanting equipment. If you're a Mage focus on Intellect, Defense, and Endurance and if you're a Knight/Archer focus on Power, Defense, and Endurance. When you finish leveling your needed guild skills come back to finish off Gold, Charisma, and whatever else is left. You can start on astrals beginning at level 20, but I wouldn't focus all of your attention to them and always be sure to level your tech to your max character level, however this doesn't mean you shouldn't work on them from time to time, because they are fairly helpful.

But thats all for now and I hope you've found this helpful and informative. Good luck with character building and show Midgar whos boss!

Wartune Post #5 - New stats, tech, and more!

Heya guys! Today, is a day for my current updated stats, guild skills, and tech!

From what you can see here my Battle Rating (BR) has gone up by almost 1.4k (close to it) which is fairly decent and I also got the Private rank as of recent, but its just the small stepping stone towards Lord Divine! My guild skills are starting to get better and I can take more punishment than most level 30's which is what I am aiming for, however my astrals really haven't improved since then that much so whenever I actually start to level them up more I will make a post on that.

As for guild skill related I am aiming for Power 5 next, then Defense 5 next, and then Endurance 5 after that. When all Power, Defense, and Endurance guild skills get maxed out I'll come back to mop up with the other guild skills and then I can spend the rest of my gold on the guild blessing or more astrals.

All in all things are progressing as planned and I really want to get Road Warrior this week, but I am kind of doubting it due to the fact that I am still experincing that Maint lag. I even tried fully cleaning my computer with things such as CCleaner, yet it didn't solve the problem.. if I have to I may switch browsers to see if it works better on there or not. Stay tuned for the next update and see you all next time!

Wartune Post #4 - Bank & Inventory, plus Maint lag?

Heya guys! So, today I am going to post my current inventory and guild vault. Also, shoutouts to COSMOS' for being quite generous in posting information on his blog and certain rates of annoying things such as Battleground Chests I've taken the liberty of linking his blog on mine and be sure to check it out!

So as you can see from my current inventory that I don't have a whole lot in it so far and that will change eventually, but as for now it'll have to do. I normally don't go towards 80 daily devotion and thats mainly because of the fact that most of the other devotion methods give experience and well since it is the level 30 challenge I can't risk going above level 30. The newer devotion rewards give you 25,000 Daru and a level 5 luck stone plus an exp scroll, so I am saving those up and hope to have quite the stash before the challenge is over! 

Now from my Guild Vault you can see I saved my VIP ticket as well as Spirit Conveant. You can save the VIP ticket when it tells you that you have to use it at level 10 by manually logging out, pretty nifty right? Its quite essential that I do this, because of the fact that this character is most likely not going to be a casher and if I did eventually end up getting wings or clothing it may take some of the challenge out of this whole thing in general. 

Of course, I am saving important things like socketing rods, insignias, soul crystals, and mount training whips. You may be curious on how I am getting things like the insignias, soul crystals, and mount training whips. Well as some of you may know that after the Guild Battle at the end of each week merits all guild members of the top 8 guilds with rewards such as soul crystals and mount traning whips. Since, I don't normally join GBs due to me being a level 30 and Exodus needing their strongest members for battles such as Red Fate for example I can't really cash in on the Honor and Insignias sadly. Which leaves me to farm honor from Battlegrounds and Insignias from Group Arena, however finding a low level Group Arena team is fairly difficult seeing as how alot of people don't stay at level 30. This in turn makes it more challenging and thats what we're here for right? To break the game at a low level.

Strangely enough I've noticed on the Armor Games servers especially that people have been reporting to get tons of lag after the maint which I am also effected, some say that they had to refresh the page numerous amounts of times for them to be able to play properly? So whats up with that and if you guys know whats going on be sure to leave a comment! Well thats all for, today I'll be sure to post an update on my current stats, battle rating, tech, and guild skills in the next update. Stay tuned!
