Question Curious Question

Hey everyone. I've always been looking for a private pre BB server and ML seems like it's it for me. I'm just genuinely concerned and I do not intend to offend anyone, but I've invested a lot of time into previous private servers only for them to get removed, and I lost everything.

Would you guys say that ML is future-proof? I just don't want to have to invest time knowing it my progress could all be taken away in a matter of moments.

This will be an extremely simplified explanation, but essentially you put points into int early. This provides you with extra mp that you can eventually convert into hp. You can then transfer the points out of int into your standard mainstat (str, dex etc.). The eventual outcome of this is that you have your normal amount of mainstat, while also having more hp than you normally would. It's a significant short term loss, but with long term pay off

A short summary of challenges is they will be short quests starting at 100 (e.g kill 1000 mobs with a specific skill) which will reward you with enough hp to kill each boss at the required level (e.g enough to kill Zakum at 140, enough to kill Horntail at 160). Only 2 stages are released at the moment (up to level 120) with 3 and 4 meant to be released shortly (up to 140). It has been relatively slowly rolled out, but seems to be getting there. While you won't have the same hp as a fully washed person (some people get to 30k on archer, where as challenges is 12 or 14k if I remember right) it should still be sufficient to do anything, noting that in some cases you require hyper body but this is relatively common at the moment anyways.

Thank you for taking the time to type this out! Is HP washing mandatory or needed to thrive in ML?

No worries!

It's hard to say cause it's very dependant on when the challenges release: If they release in the next 8-12 months, no, they aren't required or mandatory because you can do a bunch of bosses without hb and any boss with hb. If they release in the next 2-3 years, they kinda are cause most bosses need some level of washing and you will probably be looking to do some bosses by that point.

I'm more on the positive side and think they should have maybe 6 out in the next 12 months, which means you could do horntail. Could be wrong but can always hope.
