the very satisfying combat system is wasted on terrible pve content (grind the same mobs thousands and thousands of times) and seriously unbalanced pvp (gear > skill, absolutely no question). when you can bring yourself to smash your face against the horribly boring pve grind, you're really enjoyed the game at first, but the further along you get the more shallow you realize this game is. Really enjoyed the game at first, but the further along you get the more shallow you realize this game is. Like many Korean MMO's, I really don't see this game lasting as many years as other more successful MMO's. Maybe if their customer support and game-policy wasn't such an utter joke, I would have considered recommending this to a friend. Sure, there's some variety in this game, things that have already been done and quite honestly if I wanted to fish, i'd go to RuneScape and grind out a few hundred hours for 99. All in all, the only positive thing about this game are the graphics. Constant disconnects as well as authentication errors frequently make grinding out in this game that much more annoying when you're constantly having to relaunch your client. To top it all off, this game has severe connectivity issues on the NA servers.

Achieving such enhancements simply because you have less of a life than most people, and then entering into PvP where your "skill" (gear) will be made apparent is what does it for many people. This game doesn't focus on skill, and rather focuses on who can camp and grind PvE for hours upon hours on end to enhance to +15 and above.

As most Korean MMO's are, they utilize gear enhancement. Lets also mention that you'll be spending another $10-20+ on the cash-shop cosmetics that for the most part look ridiculous. Sure, you can toy around with the physical appearance of your avatar (their physical body), but other than that and dyes, you're left with a extremely lackluster customization for something you just blew $50 on. For virtually $50 the amount of customization is an abysmal joke.

Mod grinding is the same as any other game and the quickest way to level. Just another run of the mill "spam spam spam" for your daily fun. At-range characters will dominate PvP team-play, hence why a vast number of people who play this are Range/Wizard etc. This isn't even counting the fact the character balance in this game is horrid, and to be expected. What was the end product? A beyond overhyped and trash game. Simply watching YouTube videos of this game is like any other, watching BF4 trailers and demos made BF4 look great, devs hyped it to all hell.

"Well you can try it for free from a friend!" Implying you know anyone that plays this game. Best part? You forfeit your right to a refund. When you get over the flashy combat, you'll realize this game is completely overrated. Leveling in this game takes little to no effort whatsoever, maxing at the soft-cap of 50 quite literally for anyone who simply looks up the correct areas to grind. This game is beyond an utter disappointment. Best This review is coming from someone who thoroughly enjoys PvP/PvE to the fullest.
