I tried Silkroad for like 2 days... Honestly I got bored quickly because:

1. I was a newb.
2. I did the first few quests.
3. Killed the exact same monsters for hours.
4. I looked at the weapon shop and there was no variety of weapons I could use.
5. Am I missing something here? I am not playing the game right?
6. I played solo.

The most biggest turn off: LAG. Not out of sync lag, but for every action I did, there was like a 1 second delay.

I just wanted to know, I think oasis is the preferred server on here? How is the lag there? (Concerning the bolded point).

How much FG per 1 million silkroad currency?

- What can you do in this game?
- Can you craft items? Can you start off with twinked gear? Like in Diablo you can put chipped gems in a wep and own act 1...
- Are the quests the exact same thing or does it have an actual storyline ?
- Are there any motives for re-play value? I.e. in diablo there are duels, also I like to try out new builds to see how they do on helping with rushing/chaosing/baaling...

I'm about to download again now...

I see people selling 50 mill for 200 FG - fair deal?? Anyways how much money in SilkRoad can I get for 1 FG? 5 FG ?

Does get boring after a while
I think best ratio is 1 million - 15-20fg
Crafting is called alchemy go read on the official site
There is Pvp in silkroad but remaking is fuken long unless u buy a scroll to reset all ur points
there is no real good storyline just quests
the server doesnt lag often if you dont lag, so might be a comp problem

So you can't play twinked? Like crafting a low level weapon or somethin' and click away ? How many hours do you think it would take to get lvl 20 ? BTW do you got gold on Oasis for FG ?

to get to lvl 20 it takes one day of about 8 hours of non stop grinding. the most ive EVER been able to do is a 1-22 in a day.

20lvl one day

To "tweak" weapons and equipment at such a low level is extremely expensive. Your best bet is to wait to get into the 20's and 30's before starting alchemy, where you can make use of gear. It gets expensive... and addicting. At low levels, you level fast. Also try checking out player stalls for low level items that are better than the ones at npcs... usually cheaper too.
