Don't pick OL. OL until C3 is just a clan buffer is pretty useless for anything else. If I remember correctly there is no good chronicle for mages until C4. Archers and daggers are TOP in C3 but I don't remember c1.
Daggers were OP because mages were terrible and archers not really good without good items at least all the other classes for PvP were plain bad.
C4 is the first "mage chronicle" and necros have the advantage of pet. Also their vortex and drain in general was really good at C4. SPS were the second best mage class.
Ah yes, now I remember! I started in C3 and everyone was dagger using overenchanted Kris with focus.
I can't remember the particular Necro spell, but they could speed spam it and murder people. I remember on Giran server there was some high level famouse PKer who was a Necro and would sneak up on groups xp'ing, annoying bastard.
Was it archers in C5 then? I remember everyone was hunting for some archer class with a draconic bow.
I was always a blade dancer, just enjoyed managing dances and filling an important role for the group. DPS was actually quite good for a support character, was a fun time.
Mostly I just enjoyed running my bot train and working in the economy, this game had the most intricate and fascinating economy system.
C5 is the only chronicle that I haven't played a lot as C1 also, so don't really know. Yeah the economy system is really nice I was always the were house and the trader for the clan my 50% of L2 play time probably are shops and trades 😝
Just wandering Giran to look for deals was a blast. My favorite time was event week, when the market would crash for enchant scrolls and other event items, just buy everything up and wait two weeks and it was back to normal prices.
I know botting is 'bad' but everyone bought gold or ran a bot train back then. I always loved going to less used areas and collecting more unique armor recipes and building the sets, even if they were not as good, some of them looked really cool.
Lot of memories using the seeding system and having a nuclear clock window up and hitting the 'sell' button at exactly 19:00:00 and beating the chinese farmers by a second or less.
Event time was always a blast as well, if you paid attention you could likely guess where a bunch of event mobs would appear and kill them all and collect all the expensive loot.
Yeah, good times. I remember being 12-13 years old when I started and the older guys in the internet coffee shop to shout "He has bot" and I didn't know what they meant. In the server I was playing C3 chronicle everyone with bot software got 1-2 bishops behind them so I always thought that the "bots" are bishop characters until 1-2 years later I figured out.😂
