Cool Game

[GSRocks]

Just discovered this website and discovered GS like 1 week ago. So yeah this game is crazy in that I'll probably see my first born graduate college then get my character to level 100 or whatever the cap is. But I like the reading aspect of this game, as it helps me mellow out more then WoW where a million pixels are up on screen in a raid. And it's free apparently.

Anyhow, I made this Giantman Monk. Would like to know if I made the right decision pre capping it before the aliens from omicron nebula takes us all over and discovering Monks were kinda shitty to begin with. Can you give me any pointers? And what should I be focusing on in the early game. I guess levels 2~20 ? I don't expect to get to mid or even late game before our sun goes nova.

by the way, how do any of you guys ever get anywhere? It took me like one night's session reading the paragraphs from Town Square Central to Outside Gates. Insane amount of words to take in for a video game to be functional. I still haven't been in combat, any pointers there? I've already been to the Thrak Inn and spoken with the fella there, and I did the sprite quest. Thanks fellas for any heads up.

You should download and use Lich, it makes moving around a lot easier.

Monks are probably the least powerful class at the moment. This isn't to say they can't hunt effectively or that they aren't fun, but there is that. Also not that unarmed combat is overly complicated or anything but it is more involved than other forms of hunting.

What do your skills and stats look like? During your first 30 days you can move your skills around as much as you want and you can change your stats 5 times so that's always nifty.

Monks have their weaknesses just like every class. They are strong in combat and incredibly versatile. A good class to learn the game with as UAC is pretty straightforward and doesn't really require gear. I have a giantman monk at level 76 and he's a blast to play.

Since you are new I highly suggest seeking out a mentor in game.

Wimp. I have pretty much the entire game's map (the public areas, that is) in my head, minus guilds, Houses, and MPO's for which I am not a member. Lich smich...snort!

But if you're a new player, I can see the benefit.

[MrMortimur]

Reading the room descriptions is a great part of this game. I think we all have favorite rooms or areas. Anytime I visit for the first time or revisit a place I end up going really slow and reading everything. After that, you can just kinda zip around with the map open ;narost if you're using lich..otherwise there are maps you can find on the wiki or in a 3 ring binder still near the desk for many of us(Though horribly outdated now with all the new additions to cities over the years)

Monks are fun and unarmed combat has a lot of flavor messaging. You can succeed at any race/class/spec so pick something that appeals to you and folks can help you tweak it to work best in your hunting environment. Monks get a lot of flak because in comparison they kill things slower. But then at low levels going around punching things is pretty darn powerful because of the low health of creatures.

And what should I be focusing on in the early game. I guess levels 2~20 ? I don't expect to get to mid or even late game before our sun goes nova.

Focus on enjoying yourself. Don't worry about racing to any level. Read the room descriptions, check out events on the calendar (https://www.google.com/calendar/b/0/embed?title=GemStone%20IV%20Events&height=800&wkst=1&bgcolor=%23FFFFFF&src=n058u7qetmcm2p49p7s650v5e0%40group.calendar.go ogle.com&color=%23182C57&src=jv19jhbr7fepl3rfh474l5udgc%40group.calendar.go ogle.com&color=%23113F47&src=j6q1n0lq7vf222o6kltaupa01s%40group.calendar.go ogle.com&color=%232952A3&src=pcab6kb6qe76j3fl2afq9q699s%40group.calendar.go ogle.com&color=%23060D5E&src=t1vglkquofrk91qkbo8stl756g%40group.calendar.go ogle.com&color=%23182C57&src=j92j2chtbqu5bob9scv0u2hlfo%40group.calendar.go ogle.com&color=%23182C57&src=mbb6akqbs4rdetqre07cuhi2vs%40group.calendar.go ogle.com&color=%23B1365F&ctz=America%2FNew_York).

Also, if you've read the room descriptions and don't want them clogging up your screen after reading them, try setting the FLAG settings that pertrain to room descriptions (DESCRIPTION and ROOMBRIEF) off or on, respectively.

And, speaking of the GSWiki... it has a TON of useful information, in general, about GS4, both in-world info, and out-of-world/mechanics info. Another page on the GSWiki (with a bunch of links that new players should investigate): https://gswiki.play.net/mediawiki/index.php/Category:New_Player

Best advice I can give you is don't try and "win" There is always going to be someone more powerful, better trained, better equipped, etc. Have fun. Meet other characters. Take it slow. Find a community. You will most certainly re-roll your first character anyway. You will also eventually buy a subscription. May as well do it now so you don't get bogged down in all the limitations of the F2P.

This. There might be "limitations", but for someone who has never played the game before, learning on the F2P system is the best way to go... if they decide to subscribe, that's their choice, but it's certainly not needed to get a feel for the base mechanics of the game.

Just downloaded and installed Lich, my Anti-virus is saying it's a Trojan and auto-deletes it. Mmmm, not sure what to do here. And can I enjoy the game without this app? Thanks.

btw monks look like a bad class from past posts I'm reading, what should I go for then? Sorcerer? the development team did a buff of this class just recently, hot sorcerer nights or whatever.

I would say Warrior or Rogue as your very first. But it ultimately boils down to whether you want to min-max like a hardcore player or if you want to RP and have fun.

You can definitely enjoy the game without Lich, as you won't know what you're missing being a new player.

Sorcerers did recently receive development and are now an extremely balanced class.

I dislike the class because I think UAC is not the most powerful form of combat and Monk's inability to wear heavy armor provides more negatives than positives, especially given the abundance of high end armor in this game.

So you don't like something unless it's the most powerful thing in game?

[Fallen]

So you don't like something unless it's the most powerful thing in game?

I don't like a class which is built around several less than optimal combat systems, yes. It isn't that Monks are not the most powerful, it is the fact that they are arguably the least powerful. This is especially so when they are played according to the class archetypes (UAC + Low/No armor)

[Astray]

So you don't like something unless it's the most powerful thing in game?

A rogue or warrior can do what a Monk does but far far better.

[GSRocks]

So you don't like something unless it's the most powerful thing in game?

No you're definetly right. In fact, I play a Druid in WoW, not the most killer class I'm afraid. But you have to take into account someone who's approaching the game with fresh eyes. With a half-life of each toon of about 5+ years for normal casual players, the class you step into has to be the perfect choice. Seriously, judging from the number of hours it takes to cap this shit is like locking yourself into a 30 year mortgage, gotta plan this out. But for a vet like yourself, trying different more challenging classes is definetly the hallmark of a good player. In short, I'm not at your level yet. :) So, yeah looking for a twink class at the get go.

[Donquix]

Actually since the MoC and Ki-Focus changes (which i just got rank2 of the latter) things are ALOT better for monks.

Seriously. Focused mstrike has made a HUGE difference, and while I'm wandering between camps I pop ki-focus so I basically start my first free jab at tier2 more often than not.

pre-mstrike change things were pretty shitty by comparison (better than a lot of people say, worse than what PK usually says :P)

CS/TD thing is still pretty annoying and krynch is still amazing, but between the mstrike and the kifocus, I'm considering dropping it for slippery mind with the respecs. Just fight 1 thing at a time and feint the casters, i rarely have to worry about even mental dispelling really.

I still think monks REALLY need some utility out of combat (even paladins can ghetto rez ffs), and some polishing for non-uac options (shield mans, more weapon cmans, some MnM spells actually helping weapon usage, disarm protection, etc.) But honestly...if you haven't tried it since the MoC changes, you should. It's been basically life changing, and I'm still only at 1 extra focused strike, should be getting the second soon.

Yeah, it totally sucks when you're using rolling krynch and killing everything with a single punch to the head.

[Whirlin]

Well... this devolved into a monk hatefest quickly...

Let us know if you have any questions/concerns.

[Androidpk]

False again :/

[Fallen]

It's hard to think what service monks can provide because square stuff is typically tied to guilds, which I don't see Monks getting, or ARMOR services which ...yeah, Monks are kinda screwed out of. We really need DODGE maneuvers, which would benefit all squares, but particularly monks.

[Astray]

False again :/

I'm ready to read your in-depth rebuttal. You slut.

[Fallen]

Yeah, it totally sucks when you're using rolling krynch and killing everything with a single punch to the head.

As opposed to every other martial class which can aim? Except they benefit from being able to use highly powerful weapons (which have been accumulating for decades) and do not need to rely on a single maneuver to bypass the whole tier-up system. I also note you do not attempt to defend the low/no armor part of my comment.

You seem to be in total monk defense mode all of a sudden, so I don't see objectivity being a large part of this argument moving forward. To not admit Monks lag behind other professions is doing the class a disservice.

To bring this thread back to focus, I wish GSRocks all the best in his newfound enjoyment of GS4, and that you can clearly see from this discussion that there is a passionate and active player base supporting Gemstone even after 20+ years.

Aiming a weapon from the open is different compared to open aiming with UAC. Put a warrior, a rogue, and a monk in a grimswarm camp by themselves. I bet you the monk clears the camp before both of the other classes.

The only purpose armor would serve monks is for the CvA to protect against spells. And I've always been a pretty staunch defender of monks, nothing new there. As for not being objective I disagree. I've put a lot if time into monk combat and have tried all sorts of builds. Are they perfect? Of course not. Do they need some more tweaks? Absolutely. Do I think it's absurd when people jump on "monks suck!" bandwagon? Goddamn right I do. .

I have no idea just re-posting what seemed like total domination by a capped monk in a hunting area for capped people. But yeah this is all very confusing. Guess I should read more forums.

To me that was just a hunt. It looks flashy and all that but it's literally just a guy walking around killing stuff. Any class can do that. Some can do it much faster and much better. Some take a while.

I'm recommending Warrior or Rogue because it's a great start for anyone and you can get the simple mechanics down while developing a character, then rerolling to a different class when you got silvers and gear in your pockets.

[Donquix]

702 Monk

You can do the same to a warrior / rogue. The TD/CvA difference (before crazy post cap) isn't much. Assuming the monk is training correctly (MnM and MnS to 20 by roughly the time double training puts other squares in full plate). Warriors have berserk to get them out of trouble, rogues are still better in that their primary caster defense (hide/ambush) is still the most broke shit offensively as well. But monks have very good options for dealing with casters actively. I generally kill casters in a focused mstrike, 5 seconds. I don't even need kifocus most of the time but I generally do it, 2 seconds, 3 seconds feint. Compared to a rogue doing effectively the same thing maybe 2 seconds faster (due to kifocus). Meditative resistance isn't a silver bullet but it DOES help quite a bit here as well.

It's really only post cap rogues, and extreme post cap warriors, that can add 75 ranks of MnE and and 20+ ranks of MnS where things get hilariously deficient. And I think the lack of EFFECTIVE post-cap development is still a major problem, compared to most other classes.

Honestly, I was the first to make fun of monks. But with actual legitimate burst damage options now they've gone from lolbad to comparable to other classes (for combat). Still on the low end, but waaaaaaaaay closer now. I wouldn't have recommended a monk for a new player before HSN because things were just bad by the mid levels (low level UAC has always been great) but now, i say if you're interested in the character concept then go nuts. Just rush MoC to 30 and keep it least 1x after that.

Now, just need some utility and we're all good.

Monk's also don't have access to minor minor elemental as native. That hurts for both spellburst and Rift hunting.
