Oh, hmmm.... You may be on to something, try what Kweri just posted if you haven't. The one week rebirth thing shouldn't be limited by age I don't think. Unless they made it less one week and more 18 year old rebirth.

EDIT: That was to Aoi as a note.

[majikero]

Tired to finish my G1 quest. The new Genesis stuff doesn't apply to me because I was in the middle of G1 when the patch happened. No AP and free stuff for me. 

[Seriyu]

If Lorna ever gets fixed you can talk to her to redo it :p

[majikero]

If the new mining patch comes it, ingots will drop prices further. Synthesis already makes ingots cheap and fomor weapons reduced the demand of forged weapons.

[Seriyu]

Honestly I'm okay with ingot prices dropping, because selling iron ingots at all seems rediculous to me. Copper maybe, silver and gold, sure, but iron? It takes like half an hour tops to make like five of them. And the blacksmithing ptj is there for people that just wanna level blacksmithing. With how rare silver and gold are I don't see it effecting the prices too much either. It's still gonna take forever to get the ore. Copper might go down a touch. Iron will definitely fall much farther.

The fomor weapons are an excellent point and I never thought about that. I was about to say a better forged weapon makes a better spirit weapon but given how stats raise on them that's not really true.

At least merchant destiny lets people make "magic" heavy armor like thames now.

[majikero]

I actually have Thames boots from Wyvern hunting. How much do you think those sell for?

[alexwazer]

Lorna's been fixed for a while already. I already restarted G1 with both Kyu and Don.

For free rebirths, it's 20 years old, not 21. Make sure you don't select to respawn in Tir or Qilla (or elf/giant cities) and only reseting age and level. Anything else requires a card. Also, the current 3 days rebirth event might be messing up with daily rebirths for characters under 100 cumulative. Or Nexon might have changed that along with the new G1-3, which would explain the free AP you get from that.

Actually ego weapons have fixed stats, they ignore the weapon's stats.  A player-forged sword and a store-bought sword will have the same ego values.

Copper ingots won't lower in price - it's hard to go lower than "worthless".  Really, there's so little that copper is used in, I end up tossing whole stacks of 20 bars to dungeon altars.  Really silver is the big money ingot.  Or rather, the ore.  It's great refining exp, and it's used in many blacksmithing recipes.

Solea.... I did see antidote herbs there, but Seriyu didn't.

The list of herbs I saw is:
+ Base herb (Green herb)
+ Mana herb (Blue herb)
+ Bloody herb (Red herb)
+ Mandrake (Orange herb)
+ Poison herb (Purple herb)
+ Antidote herb (Silvery herb? Don't quite remember, but it was white-colored and not "White herb")

I'm sure Sunlight Herb is there too, just that I didn't find it.
I suspect there are no White Herbs, because those are Clover pet & Peca dungeon exclusive.

My view on the mining update and Metallurgy is that Metallurgy will still be attractive, even with ores being 25% more efficient in storage. Though I don't know the specifics, I suspect you still need Metallurgy for those sparkly gems. Metallirgy also provides easier to handle pieces, and is more accessible than mining: you only need sieves (smaller than picks) and a nice patch of beach to work on. Mining either has you in the various undergrounds (teeming with aggressive insects and bats and bugs) or the first floor of Bari repeatedly, four ore piles each time.

On an unrelated note, if any of you go dungeoning and find blue/yellow/red herbs, please pick them for me >_< I have a serious derth of herbs right now.

Also, ye magicians of intermediateness, if you want mana 50 potions please send me mana herbs! >_<

Did Mabinogi renovate/eliminate the rebirth and level reset systems..? I don't think I can play if I am not going to be able to rebirth one a week.

Could you please explain why this is? I never really found a need or desire to rebirth until I was about level 25 and aged way above the maximum starter ages. doing it earlier just felt kind of like I was missing out on time when I would have been a lot more capable of fighting. That's how I played for a while anyway, using the initial few weeks after rebirth for learning as many skills as possible, and the later weeks to do grindy things to get money to pay for training in the next rebirth.

Also because I'm a cheapskate and wouldn't pay even if I wanted to.

It's difficult for me to conceive of how it could take you enough time to reach lv. 25 that you aged in-game. Since AP is crucial for just about any activity, and typically things got more grindy than I liked around lL. 60 or so (about an in-game week of gameplay), I would just spot the Nx for a rebirth, soak up all that precious AP, then rinse and repeat. 

My way of looking at it, was that I made $10 IRL much more quickly than I could gained 60 levels' worth of AP after level 60. Also, at the time I had poured all my points into Composition, leaving my combat skills want for improvement.

And thank you muchly for the information- I think I will get myself situated and join in short time!

Eyyy, good to hear! Be sure to post your username in the thread when you're all set up.

Rawr.

Spoiler: Rant (click to show/hide)

I hate Nexon's cruddy customer service right about now. Let's see, one, they don't respond to tickets, even ones relating to customers willing to spend money, two, they use an AVS system that cross-references your billing address with the information I input, which is all fine and dandy except I don't live in the US. My "billing address" is (1) non-existent, being a debit card and all, and (2) in Korea, which they don't support in their list of countries. Grr.

I see no other way I could pay up, and they aren't responding to tickets.

Is anyone online right now? I could use someone to keep ferocious ant lions off my back. xD

[SirAaronIII]

Gonna start running the high-end dungeons with the cool kids starting tomorrow.

Guys, stock up on phoenix feathers for when I inevitably die.

...No but seriously, those things are important. But I'll probably do some commerce runs around the continent first. Anyone can come too, commerce with more people = more fun.

Spoiler: commerce tip (click to show/hide)

100+ Cobh seaweed ==> Tir Chonaill. Lots and lots of EXP, some profits. All good.

Also, if anyone gets any Ice Spear pages, could I have them, please?

[Skyrunner]

Best thing about as many Cohb seaweeds you can get?

It doesn't hurt even when bandits steal 40 of them. you still break even xD

I want to be there too, the dungeons, if only for the herbs <.<

[Girlinhat]

I've actually made a nice spreadsheet for commerce gains.  It has a list of towns, and then a list of the goods in each town.  You input the price-per-unit and it outputs the gold/ducats and exp you'd make if you sold them at that price.  For instance, my last recorded data had Highlander Ore selling for 254 - I don't know who was buying it for that much, but I looked through the prices and marked that down.  On an elephant this would get you 146,160 exp and 14,224 gold+ducats.  You always gain the same amount of gold as the ducats you made profit.

It turns out that commerce is rather hilariously overpowered.
