It does have its perks and you have to be willing to pay that extra to find them out. Otherwise you will never get the full enjoyment out of the server that you want.

i understand that but let take an exemple, some player enter gk as a trial then he enjoy it so much he want to upgrade , but since his/her parents do not want to pay how is he going to enjoy it , see it that way.

@tig ill be looking for more update on that

Though luck for him, the game isn't free.

granted but that doesn't mean that the gold server make the trial accounts so appealing that the people don't want to upgrade to gold.

blocking trial from kingdoms islands was ok , but if ur going to delete all goods for trial , you might as well put a message saying "you have nothing on here, pay or leave"

They either 1) get a job and pay for it themselves or 2) find a new hobby, because gaming isn't a good hobby for 12 year olds with cheap parents.

1) i'm not old enough to legally get a job.
2) i'm not going to find another hobby because i can't pay to upgrade my account on graal, because i'm 14 and a year away from legally being able to get a job.

This isn't the place, and I'm sorry I let the topic shift.

To be honest, as must as i like this game its $50 for me for a year. I just don't have that much to spare.

Unless you live in china and sew sneakers in a sweatshop, I am pretty sure you can swing $50 a year. No matter who you are. It costs more than that to fill up the 20 gallon tank on my pickup back home.. weekly..

Consider the many Graal players who are too young to work, who only get pocket money and have to think wisely about what to buy - They will find it very hard to fork over $50 to pay for a server that's got a playercount of a classroom...
I'm not even in that situation, i'm 17, studying, getting government income and have a job buying+selling natural and chemical products (), but i still don't see the point in paying $50 for a game i get less fun in than me walking 100 yards to shoot hoops - And that's alone.

My point is, it's not that it's too much money period, it's that for what you're getting, it's not worth it. If Graal Kingdoms was in an sunday market Stefan and Unixmad would be voicing their product all day and get one sale at most.

Improved the accuracy of Aengus' Elven Bow.
Now it should be about as accurate as a forest bow, making it probably the best bow in game.

You should alter the speed cap on Leu's chainmail, god items actually need to have some incentive to use them.

[Nature2]

Fixed/Added things on Kingdoms Core:

-Players from other kingdoms cant leave core levels anymore to make the gameplay better , only if the core got destroyed you are able to leave.
-The scoreboard should work correctly now(no reset anymore).
-Pmoder's should go babk to pmode now after doing this event.

"Items don't drop as if it were just regular pk'ing"

Events aren't supposed to have risks to playing them

[Sky]

How about you get that crypt up and running again?

I agree with you on this point. If this is indeed an event then it shouldn't be dropping stuff like your doing regular pk. If its doing this then it should be changed to act like it does in hotaru spar where just the finger drops.

I agree, also Govannons platemail needs to be altered because currently it's the same as pmop with less weight and ac but has a higher speed cap.

Sort of ruined a good surprise because this was already planned, however:


All armour speed caps (excpet for any platemail alchemy items) have been increased so that they are not so restricting to your speed.

If you have an alchemy item you will have to recreate it to get the new speed cap on your armor. It's possible for us to update the platemails soon but I am waiting for something.

Special thanks to John (Obs311) for helping.

Yup, Accuracy is ownage.

As calling it the best bow, I can tell:

So when will PMoP and FHoM not look crappy anymore?

GK now has a level cap of 10 with only -25 wc/ac replacing observer mode.

Is mith still crappy, or has it finally been fixed so it's actually worth using again? I ask because it's done through alchemy, but isn't plate.

Otherwise, mages still have nothing worthwhile to use for armor besides gale and bracers, all of which are difficult as hell to acquire.

Mith has been altered and has a decent speed cap now. Might want to test it and let me know.

What about Scalemails?

I'm just good like that, I guess.

[Tigairius]

The spell "X-Ray" actually works now. If you cast it, the person you cast it on will begin to see through walls. With this effect you can see things hidden behind houses, find people hiding, etc.

[Obs311]

Kind of interesting that I'm able to see behind houses now. Already found a few things.

[kia345]

Hey Tig, it's impossible to start a sentence with the word "Musical". Any chance you'll get around to that/the word filter?
