This is glorious timing.  I just finished ranking r1 Fire Mastery, to match my r1 Fireball!  The conditions to unlock Meteor Strike are to attack 3 different enemies with 100 firebolts each - and the conditions for Snap Cast are to obtain it randomly while casting magic.  It seems I'll get both fairly quickly.

Walking Casting is trickier.  r9 Meditation and r1 Magic Mastery.  I REALLY need to advance that...

I can't wait to see space-time continuum shatters under the assault of meteor strikes during dragon raids... aka lagfest.

Also, I found a nice video of meteor strike being used. It shows the potential of the skill at rank 1 and it's beautiful.

I'll be maxing Meteor Strike ASAP - hopefully, being a newer skill, it won't have as many CR-dependent ranking requirements!

EDIT: The server is still updating, but the patch is available.  If you start the game, you can patch your game but not yet login.

Also, Merlin is a lot hotter than previous depictions...

PATCH IS LIVE!

Would anyone like to help me harvest fire elementals?
Then throw 100 firebolts each at Fire Sprites, Balrogs, and Dragons (yes dragons).
Then defeat a red dragon...

And then, the OP shall begin!

This Merlin character card seems pretty neat, so I might have to partake. I especially like the sound of "access to the Hero Support System, which lets you share some of the Ability Points (AP) you earn on this character with another character on your account."

I wonder if that applies to rebirthing, and not just new characters?

The hero support system applies to any character that rebirth using an Ace/Hero/Elite card. Not sure how it works exactly besides that.

Also... decision, decision. Elite cards are up, so do I ditch Seikyu and make a new human mage or... decision.

And..!

If they come out with something for the lady on the right, I will be hook, line and sinker.

The real question, then, is whether or not it is a permanent bonus.

Well, I just couldn't resists. This is too good an opportunity to get a new decent mage that's no a weakling elf. So I got an elite card and created a new human mage, ditching Seikyu in the process. I can now properly nuke stuff without being a glass cannon.

So, I'll be send an application to join the guild soon, the name's Ryuseijin.

Edit: New character here and... Oh my God!! That quest log!

One reason I don't want to make a new character...  You'd think with the card having the limit "you must have a character of X level already" they'd have cut a lot of the noob quests for hero cards...

I'm also rather attached to Laur.  Happy to have gotten this far, will be sticking with it for some time.  Besides, buying an existing mage seems too much like regular MMOs - you get a cookiecutter character minmaxed to the same level as every other character.

Besides, you're cheating.  Firebolt spam against dragon is fun!

Honestly, if I could have unelvened changed Seikyu's race, that's what I would have done instead. A long time ago. I just hate elves, I hate playing them, I hate their pathetic racial skills and bonus, I hate to be so limited in weapons (giants get hit in clothing/armor instead) I can use, I hate their squishiness, I hate Maike and I hate elves enough to repeat that a second time. And there is no way I'm going throught the trouble of ranking all those magic skills from scratch again, especially not with a character that has already done all the delicious AP rewarding quests, generations and episodes. Plus, a new character means a new battle pegasus :D

On the noob quest thing, I totally agree. This is even worse with druid talent. You know those "tutorials" you get when you rebirth? Well, druids have 3 talent trees... had to do all 3 + close combat. Again. But, being able to watch the Trefor cutscene where he smash a fox made that worth every second of my time :P  Edit: Seriously, I need to find a video on youtube of that... for my everlasting enjoyment.

I have harvested sprites.
I have killed balrogs.
I have realized that only the person to FINISH the red dragon gets the quest success.

Let us gather are wits and our weapons and hunt these beasts to extinction!

Does any red dragon works? Because there's one in the secret mission in Tara. It would be much easier to do, but it does require to have completed G11.
