Magic Casting/Obtaining
Posted: 19 Feb 2010, 07:04
I Was Wondering Something.. I'm Obviously Very New To The Game, But From The Help Of A Few Very Kind Members (TheDarkFinder, klip, And mrgrey <3) I've Gotten Off To A Great Start In The Game.
And So, My First Character (KrystalFan, Which Whom Is Now 'FusionUltima' Because I Decided To Make Him Anew XD) Was Supposted To Be, Nearly All Magic Using.. But.. Once I Got Everything, And Actually Became A Mage.. I Realized, How Almost Unbearable It Seemed, To Get Magic, And Even Cast It <.< (Though, I Am A Noob, So I Don't Have All The Resources That The Higher lvls Have XD) But.. When Casting Magic, Nearly Every Spell Needs Some Kind Of Item To Be Used To Cast It..
I Understand, If You Were Looking For An Alchemy Like Approach XD But.. I've Always Found That Kind Of Magic To Just Be.. Overly Costful, And Unbearable.. I've Never Been Good With Money.. At Least In Games, And I Can Barely Keep Up With Mana Potion Costs In Most MMO's, Cause I Usually Spend My Money On Better Items, Or My Guild >.> So, I Was Wondering.. Why Did You Choose To Go With This Way To Use Magic? I Myself Hope In Later Versions Of The Game, This Gets Changed XD But, That's My Opinion, And I Don't Mind Keeping With A Warrior Type Character In The Future XD
OH, And My Second Question.. Why Make It So Hard To Get Magic? XD I, Actually Haven't Gotten A Single Spell Yet, Aside From The Ones You Get When You Touch The Seed <.< Because I Never Was Able To Collect Enough Herbs, For The Mana Potion, And Then The Other Thing You Need, To Purify The Lake.. So I Just Gave Up On It.. But, From What I've Read, It Seems To Take A Long Time To Collect Magic.. And, I Wanted To Ask For The Reasons For Those Two Questions? Aside From Realism.. Cause, it Would Seem More Realistic XD But It Just Makes Mages Too Hard And Time Consuming To Use..
TLDR: Why Do Mages Take So Much Time And Effort To Use? It's Unbearable.. <.<
