Trickster
 

After the Japanese release, it's time for the English release! >:3 DIG DIG DIG.

Sweet. I played the jap version and had no idea what I was doing. Other than digging. For random crap.

yea. dig dig, ooh junk. yay money...crap my digger broke...buy new one!. yay exp for diging.

wow that was incoherent

Does this mean I can stop translating quests now.

Oh, an English version? Well that changes everything. I tried it back in the day when all of GFF was jumping on board, and just about died from all the kawaii. Then that quickly turned to "What do all these buttons do? How do I make this tent go away? What are all these rude Japanese people saying to me?"

If I can actually navigate and have some degree of confidence that I know what my controls actually do, I think I might be interested again. Is it my understanding that this game is "free"? Do they support themselves by selling in-game stuff or something?

Yea. kinda like maplestory without the minor annoyances.

Yeah in the Japanese version you could use real money to buy ingame stuffs (and get a significant advantage for it), I believe the items didn't expire like they do on Gunbound and MapleStory, but they also required high levels to wear.

Not really sure of how it will work on here though, we'll have to see.

Well, I personally am not concerned with whether the game will have cash users or not since I would bee too cheap to buy anything anyway. What I will be watching out for is the quality of the quests given and if the armor and items will be 'evenly' distributed in terms of power. I don't mind there being a really strong and rare weapon, but not to the extent where people will go crazy over it like the did in maple story over crap like panlids.

The digging got delayed, because their log-in function has problems. Whyyyyyyyy.

They obviously have not figured out how to work the big button that launches the game.

This will take a few weeks to master!

Yea, ActiveX. Serious business.

Can anyone else d/l this game or is it still not ready yet?

According to the game page the servers will go live the midnight of July 24th. I might give it a try then.

Anyone here that's actually played the game and can answer some simple questions?

I was trying to browse a few sites for resources, but unfortunately the majority of people who seem to post on English-language Trickster sites are massively incoherent or just... unhelpful.

So, I was taking a look at the Fox (Sense) class, and I was wondering about skill builds.

Power
* Attack: Determines the amount of damage done to enemies
* Hit Rate: Determines accuracy of attacks
* Delay: Time between attacks. This is the only skill that decreases in value
Magic
* Max MP: MP available for casting spells and using skills
* Magic Attack: Determines the damage done by spells
* Magic Defense: Increases resistance to enemy spells
Sense
* Capacity: How much weight your character can carry
* Perception: Digging accuracy, customization ability, and critical attack damage
* Luck: Affects spell, skill, and gun hit rate and critical attack rate
Charm
* MAX HP: The amount of HP available to your character for taking damage
* Defense: Your character's resistance to physical attacks
* Evasion: How swift your character is at dodging and blocking attacks

It says common builds for Foxes are 1144 or 1243, but I'm curious about hit rate, or accuracy. The sense stat adds accuracy for guns, but it says nothing about throwing objects (which I am told are a Fox's weapon of choice).

Do Foxes need Power, which adds hit rate for every other char? Or does Sense cover their hit rate as well? I would assume it does, but I dunno... maybe I just play too much RO.

badger trying to copy me and be a fox. ;_;

Maybe I'll really copy you and quit playing after like 2 weeks >=(

You can already download the game <3 - http://ntreev.nefficient.com/ntreev/...kTrickster.exe

Be sure to have 3.7 GB free on your drive before you install, though. The 399MB installation file is rather sneaky.

Also, patching is going to take AGES.

The installation size and how the install works is a fucking laugh. I'm not playing this shit.

edit: ok, installed anyway.

edit: now I can't log in. It bitches about 'SSO', but I can't find any option like that.

cuz usk ;____;

I've only ever spoken to one high leveled fox when I dabbled with jTrickster, and they were 1144. They seemed to do well enough on their own. The thing with Foxes is that they use their "zomg hueg weight" to their advantage by being able to hold a ton of items, rather than being some one hit wonder like a Bunny.

I was talking to some friends of mine from MapleStory (yes a lot of MS players are going to be migrating here, beware) and they wanted to do some all female type party with the four of us each being a different class. This way we could take advantage of the ROYAL Party method (1 of each class and all the same gender) and get 1.5x more exp o=

But it looks like I'm stuck being the bunny .-.

I haaaaaaaaaaaaate 95.6734% of Maple Story players.

I may get back into Trickster, I was one of those that started when someone brought it up at GFF for the Jap person, and slowly filtered out as it became harder and harder to find Japanese people who could actually understand most of my conversation.

I just want to confirm...when it says midnight of 24th, does that mean Monday morning? Coz I'm really confused...sorry.

Whats to be confused about? It says;

Since we work on proper time and not any of this EST nonsense, we will be able to log in at 5am, Monday morning.

I will definitely be giving this game a try out, looks kinda fun.

I've been waiting for this, although I'm undecided on what class I want to play. I've narrowed it down to Lion and Dragon. If only there were coherent Skill Builds, since I have no clue as to what will work and what won't.
