Hi, I am playing at 电信九区 >> 治金桩.

Everyone in this forum seems to be playing as BLUE Faction over there.
But...I like the RED faction's COSTUME better...

Is there anyway I can join BLUE faction, but able to wear RED faction's costume?
By "anyway" I mean ANYWAY, example: maybe there's some mod out there that can make my BLUE faction costume looks like RED on my own PC?

But of course, prefer legit way Is there anyway without modifying client? Now character stopping at the quest where I choose faction

Please help, thanks!

"When and where to wear" is something within my control, that's really a minor concern. I am more concerned about whether I am even able to obtain them.

I am in the cave where the two faction masters are asking me to select one and join, so I haven't do any of them yet.
I worry if I accept one, I'll not able to obtain costume for the other already.

Plus, there seems to be 3 different costumes: for Low, Mid, High ranking members.
If I can only join 1 faction, means I can never rank-up in the other one, means cannot get the high-rank costume for the opposite faction any more.

Is there anyway I can get all these costumes (low, mid, high rank costume for both faction)?

Or I am stuck with one faction?
If that's the case, then back to the same question again: is there ANYWAY I can still see my character move/fight in RED faction costume, but join BLUE faction?

Really appreciate the advice guys.
Sorry but I am still a bit confused here, totally new to this...

Now, in order to proceed with main story line, I need to speak with either one of the faction master to pick a faction. Assume I pick BLUE, and have no intention to switch faction.

So, how do I obtain RED faction's costumes later?
You guys mentioned hunt token from faction bosses...any more detailed info, like where to start this quest and where to exchange token?

I know there's a lot of other great costumes in this game, but I particularly like one of the RED faction's one, the one looks like a black-coat with striking-thick-red-furry-linings...but I wish to join BLUE faction as all other members here on that server, so, that's why all these questions

Well, what if I join BLUE faction, and go to kill the RED faction boss? Will that RED faction boss drop token that I can exchange for RED faction costume?



Also, some more questions that has been bugging me:
1) I get a lot of Bagua Plates, currently using the ones I get from Thousand Soul lottery. It seems to be quite nice, and until now (lv16) I haven't find any set that can replace it. Does that mean I can just sell all other inferior Bagua plates to vendor? Any other better usage? They doesn't seem to help Achievement or anything...or maybe I haven't discover?

2) As I complete story line, I am getting a set of Bagua plates, the Bamboo's Guard set. Is there any point keeping them? I have 4 now, and they are inferior to the Thousand Souls set...and they are hogging my inventory....I keep them because I worried that there's no other way to get them, since they are reward from main story quest, and later they might be needed for Achievement or whatever...Any special usage? If not, I rather just vendor them for more inventory space.

3) How do you guys deal with inventory space? I can't imagine anyone with sufficient inventory space without buying cash shop, if you add-in all the crafting/gathering. Any guidelines?

Awww....so if I join BLUE faction in main story line, then forever I can't wear RED faction costume?
NOOOooooooooooo~~~~~~~~~~
Sad............

Hmm....anyway I can don't join a faction, but still able to proceed main story line? That doesn't sound possible...but....sigh...

Guess I'll need to start finding mods....

Hi...noob here again....

Yesterday wore faction costume to do my first faction quest (lv16? 18? After coming out from the cave where 8 ppl helps you, and fly through floating stones)...the moment I wear it, ganged by several level players...then get camped at the rez spot...
I had to use raise-in-town option, then back to the same spot, and see several other newbie just keep getting rezzed and killed by the same person, seemingly farming (don't know for what)...

I'll watch out in the future, but any good guide on faction/guild out there?
Any tips and things to watch out?
Also, my character joined the BLUE faction in 电信九区 治金桩, any guild there?


Another question: on crafting/gathering.
I need to work, and has less than 2 hours to play per day, maybe 4-5 hours on weekends....I don't find the crafting/gathering interesting...I prefer to spend my precious gaming-time on more action-packed activities...I don't mind if I can be rich or not, just getting-by with least effort is enough for me. But of course if there's easy way to get rich, that would be nice too
Is there any gathering/crafting for player like me?
Currently I picked:
A) herb-gathering + medicine making combo for combat.
B) mining + smithing for repair cost.
I am not sure how cost-efficient or if these are good choices....any expert advice?

Please help out, thank you.

The best ping I've gotten so far is 265 from 电信一区. Any other servers and it's 300+ And unplayable. :/ So from the FAQ, all the boosters need to be purchased/top-up. correct??

Oh, and after selecting server and creating character, there's another list to choose from, What are they? server within server?


If you are connecting from Malaysia, that ping is definitely too high!
There's free connection booster available for BnS, use the Free QQBooster listed on the first page.
It reduced my ping from 175-200ms to 100-110ms.

About the faction/guild/pvp:
Yea, that's what I did after rez in town, and got my first factino daily quest done that way.
Majority of faction quests can be done successfully without interruption this way? or will I require a group of "escort" later on?

And same question: is there a good guide out there about faction/guild/pvp in BnS?


As for the crafting/gathering:
Hmm, what I mean is:
Yes, player do not have to manually do the actual crafting/gathering themselves, BUT, say for example, you do Pottery. It is not only involving crafting/gathering, but also will require a player to spend sometime "monitoring/playing" the market, in order to get their stuff sold at proper price, to benefit or at least get back their crafting cost. Since in-game gold already hard to make, plus it can turn into cash shop money to buy items, I think it is a profession that will require more attention/time. The price fluctuates much based on needs and market.

That's why I picked medicine and repair: to be self-sufficient, save some money from buying NPC/player medicine/repair.
But I made these choices with several assumptions, which I am not sure if I am right:
1) Medicine and repair tools are high-consumption rate items, their always needed and always bought, thus price will stabilize very quickly.
2) The cost to make these items should be low (high consumption rate, high production rate), and so they don't cost much capital, but of course they won't earn you much money too. Mostly, for this type of crafting/gathering, you "earn" by saving some money, by not needing to buy from NPC/other player.
IF MY ASSUMPTION IS CORRECT. Diff game diff economy, and I am totally new to BnS, that's why I ask for opinion here.

So....what do you guys think? Which crafting/gathering should I consider/pick?

Wow...never know, I always assume at some level, you will start to feel the pain of not having enough potion and repairs...I didn't know this game keep feeding player easy potion/repair until late game???
Serious? Really?
Then I better change profession now...

So, in this case, which crafting/gathering is good to do? Mostly, I am interested in crafting/gathering that can:
1st priority: save money and trouble of buying from other player/npc, usually much more expensive.
2nd priority: earn side-income

BTW, any guide on faction/guild/pvp mechanics in this game?
I don't mean "as a KFM, what skills to upgrade", I mean something like:
- What I need to know as a player about Faction? Guild?
- Any Tips for faction/guild/pvp-related stuff, such as quest/costume/rank/benefit/etc.

Thanks for the great tips guys.

Hmm...now, is there any guild out there in 电信九区 治金桩?
Do we have a list of guild? I only see a list of players on the first page, but not the guild info/recruitment/etc.
Would love to have fixed group of people to do dungeons, raids and pvp.

Sad....then where is the server with most LYN/MY players?
I am only lv16, so I don't mind switching.

Any server with active LYN/MY guild? Please give a shout here, thanks.

Which booster you use?
I am using the QQ one, since it's official anyway.
Also, no matter which booster or whatever email or anything else, remember to NOT use any same password.


Anyway, bump again: Any active LYN/MY guild in 电信九区 治金桩?
Or any active LYN/MY guild at all in ANY server?

You mean 网通一区?
Is there an active guild? I really prefer to join Malaysian guild than searching for random CN guild.

Also, I noticed that I have the lowest ping for 电信2区, 78-94ms compared with 网通1区 and 电信9区 (both around 104-125ms).
Any Malaysian guild on 电信2区?

But hey, @udin901, if you have an active guild, I'll just forget about the ping and join you guys Please let me know, I plan to have longer BnS gaming session this weekend, would be nice if I can get into a guild and mix around this weekend.

Thanks.


EDIT: You know what? Can we get a tally of all active players still playing BnS CN?
The list on first page seems outdated already? (Not sure).
It will be really helpful for new players like me who wish to play with Malaysians.
Plus, it will help the guild to grow or at least maintain healthy number of member too, since people come and go. Win Win.

I really like this game's combat and graphics, it feels really asian and kungfu.
You can put my name up in the list as one active player, but still trying to decide on a server, which will depends on the amount of Malaysian player.

WooHoo~~~that settles it, 网通一区here I come!!!!
The ping is around 109-125ms for me, playable.
So...just to make sure, RED Faction, right? (WooHoo~~~ even better that's the faction I want the costume).
Glad that I am able to pick one server to "settle down".

I'll level-up abit tonight and tomorrow, and join you guys maybe this weekend if there's slot available. Even if no slot available for now, nevermind, I'll just wait for an opening as I level-up. MMO is more enjoyable by playing with a more static community

I plan to play as KungfuMaster (Dragon) and Assassin (Human). I hope I will not be too "redundant".

Unless...there are other servers out there with a lot of Malaysian players too? Preferrably one with lower ping like 电信2区?

Hmm...guys...another concern here....

I am not really interested in 1 vs 1 PvP, because usually in all games, it's all rock-paper-scissor, USUALLY, not sure how it is in BnS. Anyway, I won't choose my class based on performance of 1vs1 PvP.

BUT, I am interested in having some group PvP, like castle siege, emperium war, etc...
Is Assassin and KungFu Master weak in that aspect?
I choose Assassin and KungFu Master mainly due to this being a more asian-style game, KungFu and Ninja is more fitting

How's assassin and KungFuMaster in group-PvP?

OMG GUYS~~~~

I am now in the 8-master cave in story line, where I need to join a faction...but it says I cannot join RED faction in 网通一区 because too many people!!!!

OMG HOW???? If I can't join RED faction, means I can't be with you guys sad!!!!! Anyway I can join RED?

Wow it actually works, haha, thanks Jigoku. I am now in RED faction

Hmmm...just got my upgradable-necklace and upgradable-ring....still haven't find any upgradable-earring...

I tried to feed my necklace and ring with those un-upgradable ones...but growth is very very low.

Any suggestion? How to level these quickly?
And about what level/area will I get my first upgradable-earring? I afraid I missed it...I am now around lv20, completed all quests near the temple area, now moving to seaside.

And...umm...active guild in 网通一区 RED faction? Any slot for lv20 KFM or Assassin?

Cannot find enough 瘟疫 box Only get 1 from dailies, but when opened up not my class weapon

Thanks for the tips guys, I haven't really look at the auction house.

@MacDanny:
It is farmable? From which instance? Is the drop rate good?
