It's sort of like Arnold Swartzenagger going to a gym and lifting naught but 5 pound dumb bells for an hour.


Arnold does a phenomenal job comparing a 'pump' from curls to doing UA speed runs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkUNKKgZ-1w

This made me laugh harder than I have in a while, thanks for that. It's easy for some very dedicated old slashers but keep in mind new people join every day. If it didn't get easier the longer you played then what's the point?

Edit: And why quote climbs? Are you implying they aren't climbing? I don't mean to antagonize but this comment is quite humorous to me.


I'll start playing this game with no gear on HC at all, and I guarantee you I will do at least 3 MQs with no gear at all. I'll even solo and do nothing else.

I don't want to be rude, but you don't know what difficult is, there was a time in this game where it would take up to 1 week to MQ on HC even if you had the best gear you could have on HC. There was a time when Catas didn't exist and even when Catas did come out, the maze didn't exist and you straight up fought strong monsters in the catacombs.

Through hard work and organization you can make it through. This game is easier and because you don't have to be too reliant on yourself anymore, you can get good drops, the prices for things has dropped hugely.

All you need in todays age is 50ee equipment to put out 3-4 hour climbs where in the past top level gear would only net you that.

If you want to be good at this game, it all comes down to time investment and how you do that. And with how the game is now, that is way more easier.

patl probably refers to "the fastest climb" that UA did.

Not one single heal was used this entire climb :) (dpaules, 1)

ty. i thought trolls like insanebobb know this ^^ but he seem to have a larger break in slashing while Ua posted this. i dont know, but i respect his opinion :)



@ insanebobb: i was never talking about solo climbs. i think the whole topic was about " most climbs in 24 hours" - i bet noone on both cores is able to solo faster then groups. ( correct me if im wrong)
and for that kind of "speedclimbs" you need to black, and apparently dont need heals. As is sayd, im not the guy doing this kind of climbs , i prefare "quality climbs" with the chance of finding good gear. And for this kind of climbs, silence always using 2 healers , a mainheal and a backupghealer. Probably thats why we was the first hcguild to succeed elemental education on first try, without dangerous situations - and without bridging or getting enough info from softcore.

We play the game like its intended. Not only for speed or guildpoints or show off ;) We play for fun.
Its pretty funny for you as sc ls vetaran to complain about 3 evils on solo. There was solo hc people doing 4 corners or nmnm to wave 7. So YES , this game is still to easy, Whatever you say i wont change my opinion.

thx for your time :o

that is a joke. IMO lol 3eps are eazy. ive completed that Solo. and yes your right the game is to easy. ive ran in runs where we use 100 heals in the whole climb full xplore hitting ambush 4+ times. slash and a face thrown in there occasionally. i think that is why paul is coming out with harder and harder quests for people with gosu gear and amazing teamwork. so that way we have a challenge even though most slashers want to avoid four corners which is easy. and no1 ive been in a group with will even ATTEMPT EE.. which is sad.

Why are people so afraid to do any quests on Softcore? Defeats the purpose of even playing sc....

mhhh what happened to the guy, who was always bragging about his outstanding gear and his own or his guilds achievements all the time with topics about unfair stuff? i also heard he was using his wifes account in an unfair way to have financial advantages when trading. also i heard that guy was trying to get good gear cheap by bothering ppl via pm...

dunno what happened to him... maybe its just urban legends or it was an illusion B)

Who complained? I indicated that if you wanted a fun time that's not so easy, try giving up all your gear, starting over, using ONLY what you find, soloing, then running into 3 eps, OR, soloing 3 sets of 3 wave eps (as in, get a 3 wave, go to the next square there's another, go to next square, there's another) without needing to shrine/heal. Basically? Doubt you can do it. ;)

Frankly though, I think all the people who're bitching about the game being too easy should all quit and go play online chess. Hell, if you want challenge, I even know I a chess master I can give you the email to. :)

Also, I stated I don't care, regarding the topic. It's just more e-penis bullshit from Nick. Not worthy of staying on topic for. :)

Who on sc is afraid to do quests? Perhaps you slash with the wrong people. Most of those who refuse quests on sc are looking for the fastest climbs possible is all. :)
