Two Problems in 2k2 to be fixed

[TheFrozenFiend]

You can make Graal "fair" or "unfair" for yourself.

It all depends on how much time you are willing to waste/spend on the server.
If you play as much as the people with the "Flaming Sword Of Bile +360" then youd probably have plenty of money to waste too.
On the other hand if you play as much as me then youll have 22 platinum like I have.

For those who don't have 20 strength, carry a full suit of armor, and whatever else they might have, (hearts, livers, skins, arrows, etc.) a 40+kg sword is probably going to slow you down.

Did you actually read my message?

Ok now see this is just wrong.
You may think 60 damage, and immediately get the judgement that its not fair. Truth of the matter is if I go up against Girum who has maybe around 120 HP, chances are I will NOT kill him in about 2 hits, I might not even kill him in 5 hits. Just because you can do 60 damage, hardly means you ever do. Girum would have to have like 8 ac and 0 physical protection, and I still doubt I would take him down in 2 hits.

Maybe in a certain quest, or EVENT. You get an IWD or prepare!
But using Improved weapons in events / sparring events should be unallowed, because it unevens the fight.

It's not near as easy as you make it sound Selzar... people don't just go to the market and buy the ability to kill you. Making the amount of money that it takes to get that weapon upgrade and everything that goes with it, like diamonds, takes a lot of time. Also, it's not only weapon upgrades that you have to gain, so getting all of the other good equipment takes even more money, and therefore more time. In all that time, there is a lot of work.
That is where you should start if you want to get strong. Actually doing some work. What you don't do is come to the forums and whine about how people that have spent more time on the game are better than you at that game. Now close your internet browser that you are looking at this topic with, and open your game.

I agree with shrimp, it is your overall stats that control how much damage, I dont spend 1100 plat each time, to increase my weapons by 2 dam.

that is a major waste of plat, if you want to talk about balance, we will. What sucks is that I HAVE FAILED ALCHEMY 8 FORKING TIMES, NOW THAT IS A B*TCH

when Sorcs usually get all spells on 1st time.

I have wasted about 7k on spells i have failed, that isn't balance.

I think things are fine.
