"I actually bought so much currency, i didnt like use any of it because it wasn't that expensive"
Meaning he bought a ton, but barely scratched the amount he bought because the upgrades were cheap.
@@lightshade25ify5k to gear a character apparently but it doesn’t matter considering you can only buy it if a f2p player sells it. But he’s rich ofc 1k is nothing to him lmao
1k is probably 5% of what they payed him to play this game
For beginners: Gearing at least while levelling to 50 is pretty simple. You can just keep your green +6 gear. Then you can look at blue gear. Also don't forget you can transfer levels later on in the game. This includes levels on skills, passives and gear.
This is what i did
Fully traited blues are better than most purple drops by themselves
@@GenDrake3 this is good to know
I did not understand this and already rolled a bunch of my blue gear into purples. Like 5 purples. Very painful when I should have sold those on the market and just maxed our my blues. Oh well. F2P as well.
you don't need same item to upgrade the trait, you only need the same trait from any item to upgrade it.
however to unlock new traits you would need same item
U can use the armor trait on weapons? What about a blue weapon trait on an epic weapon? Not sure how it works.
@@vincentramirez6967 i don't think it works like that: u can use different armor pieces tho (ex: you can use trait from a ring for a chest piece). You cant combine weapons with armor

Pay2Win in this game is the worst (in a good way) Pay2Win system I have ever seen. It's more like ''Pay to save a few days of grinding'' than it is actual Pay2Win - and compared to other MMO's, everything, including gear, takes VERY, VERY, VERY short time to obtain/upgrade so it essentially makes no sense to Pay2Win in this game - unless you REALLY, REALLY don't have time to play the game. Even people who play 2-3 hours a day can get everything on the character MAXed out and BiS, in a super short amount of time compared to other MMO's like WoW, FFXIV, BDO, GW2, LA, ESO and so on... So it literally makes no sense to waste money on this game, unless you have no time to play or unless you want to buy all the cosmetics.
Yeah, when the devs said they shortened the grind coming out of beta tests, they REALLY shortened it. Shortest grind for bis in any mmo I have ever seen
@@musicaltarrasque Getting bis is nothing. Getting bis fully traited is the grind. And reality is most ppl don't have the knowledge from time playing in korean servers of what gear/traits will sell well early on auction to make lots of lucent fast. Shit, I assume some people won't even find out how to extract traits/litographs early enough. And getting fully traited without auction does not sound like possibility before 2030. Sure, some content creators will make guides of how to make lucent, showing which items sell (sold) well, but they will do it after all the whales have done their shopping and the prices of early gear have dropped significantly.
You earn the premium currency easily through the auction house though, deffo no pay 2 win as you can earn it all easy.
I have epics on pretty much every slot and I am free to play been playing since the global release. It definitely is super fast to get the gear you need. The traits are obviously where the "pay to win" part comes in, but traits are totally optional for PVE content since it is very easy, so the only reason ever to pay to win would be to be stronger in PVP, which I am not sure is exactly worth it unless you just want to dunk on people that have no chance against you, or if you don't want to get dunked on. I have not done much PVP so I am not sure how much of a difference a fully traited-out character is going to have compared to a character with good gear but bad traits, it doesnt seem like you would get in 1v1's that often in this game so I am not sure it is the biggest deal. Maybe in the guild battles if you have 70 whales against 70 broke boys, the difference would be noticeable.
The ants don’t even pop up on my screen lmao
same.. lol
ant nest is kinda bugged for the past few days
I will never understand people who p2w, like even if I had all the money in the world, I would just feel weird after doing p2w. The whole point to me is to grind to feel accomplished but if I pay then that feeling is nowhere to be found. idk
A lot of people work and have don't have the time to sit at a computer for 12 hours a day like most gamers. They pay with the money they earned to keep up with you guys
@@jonezee-2why do people use that argument “people like me work”.. no shit dude we are all adults that are more often working over 40 hours.. theres no point to p2w this game cause youre gated 3 dungeon runs a day , and thats roughly a hour. no adult should be on a mmo saying “i dont have the time therefore i p2w” if they cant commit at least a Hour…. its just lazyness. lmao
@Bleezy453 read my comment again little dude. Never mentioned myself
Theres a difference between grinding in Mmos And actually acomplishing something through hard content.. a lot of the Mmo Grind Feels braindead, easy And Its really bad if Ur forcing urself to do it not even liking the content.. thats why id rather pay And can't play WoW for example cause lot of the 'content' Is just annoying Grind with trash gameplay and u Have to do it lot of times
@@jonezee-2 little? ah you can tell by that youre what mid or lower 20s so you just realized what a real job is lmao. if youre not talking about yourself youre just a clown looking for someone to defend. lol
I havent paid a dime and already have way better gear than this guy, I am sitting at 2400 and have at least 2 traits on my purples. What a waste of money lmao
He has the money
@@Tomivee03 thats fine, he will need to spend lot more
hes paying so we play free.
@@samuelhipperson8503 thats a good way to look at it fr
@@AustinAMVspent way more on wow gold than this xD
57k lucent "wasn't that expensive" at like £84 for 6k .... say you're loaded without saying it i guess
he bought 57K of Lucent and said it wasnt that expensive. Thats like 1000 bucks 🤣🤣
Bro is just not in the same mindset when he says “I started to win p2w” 😂😂😂
I mean, $1000 Isn't that much for ppl who P2W.
I used to play Mobile Gacha games like Idle Heroes, RAID, AFK Arena, LOTR Rise to War, Forsaken World, Soul Lands.
And I was burning $5000-15,000 a month on the game.
Spent around $300,000 over 3-4 years before I quit Mobile gaming.
Now I'm playing WoW, and I'm spending maybe $200 a week for my Mythic+10 and 8/8 HC VIP + a bit of gold
And It feels like It's F2P compared to what I used to spend.
@@SinKierannot sure if you’re joking but spending 200$ a week and calling it f2p seems absurd to me
@@judasiscariot6263 that fact he is paying for carries in wow LMAO. Just play the game, be decent and progress into heroic with a guild (playing and progressing with a guild will be more enjoyable anyways) wow I just saved him $200 a week. fucking insane to me, I prefer not to give blizzard more money, I can farm my wow token in a few hours, pays for my sub and only give them cash for expansions every few years.
@@SinKieran someone needs a therapist and a financial advisor asap...
i have a weird mix of tab target and action. took me a week to figure out what i like. i didn't actually expect to like this game at al. but i kinda do now.
the combat and targeting is just off and for a pvp game it has to be on the ball for me.
ma boi holding his sneeze finna blow his brains out
And then you learn about open world boss weapons which are BiS. They can be completly gatekeeped by big pvp alliances. Youll never get one. They cost up to 1200$ in KR.
The game seems fun to play casually but I would never want to take it seriously and chase bis gear it seems like it would be hell.
Youd think in 2024 the games wouldnt look so shitty but here we are.
actually p2p players can par on p2w player. you just need to sell good extract traits for lucent and use the lucent to buy your traits for you blue weapons,. but of course, to do that you ahve to spend your resources smartly.
I mean, it is not really worth leveling blues, 1 week of farming dungeons/events and you get soo much epic loot.
Just farm abyss, contracts, and dungeons
@@musicaltarrasque blue with correct full traits is> than incomplete epic equips at this early stage.
I mean after you complete your build qith blues you should be confident with all the content of the game while slowly progressing to your purple sets.
@@hyped.g3294 ok, but the effort and/or money, that you are putting into blues, would be better allocated towards epics. There is no content that you need such an optimized blue gear set to beat. Level fifty, base traits green gear can clear everything in the game, especially with a party.
"mid-game gear" doesn't make sense, just go straight into endgame gear farming
@@musicaltarrasque but without fully traited gear and 1700 melee evasion, how will I stomp newbs?
The game is undeniably p2w, but the end game content avaliable so far is very easy anyway and with enough effort anybody can get their bis. What annoys me the most though is the clunkiness of the combat, controls and character movement. Hopefully they will get improved with time (cope)
"this game is p2w"
"anybody can get their bis"
way to contradict yourself.
it's not pay to win, it's pay to skip. all swiping does in this game is let you buy stuff from the auction house instead of grinding for it.
@@thiusw pay to skip is pay to win
this game isnt P2W dont listen to this tard gear doesnt = skill in a pvp mmo
@QrBooze yeah, it takes effort and time, I didn't deny that. But as I said, every content in the game currently can be easily cleared, it's just a matter of time
@@hououinkyouma1488 it’s an unrealistic amount of time, 5% drop rate and I can only run it 3 times a day and I need the same a weapon like 10 times, I quit the game once I learned about the trait system, so insanely p2w
Why is he optimizing blue/green gear???
you can farm epics with non-optimal gear easily.
You want to max the traits before transfering to your epic gear
"basically just saves time" it's funny when people trying to diminish a p2w effect say that. if the game put out new content and gear regularly, being ahead of others IS having better gear all the time and IS literally pay to win 100%. by the time a f2p player gets those gear, new gear comes out, while the p2w guy had it the whole time
He cant buy that gear if no one is selling it. An f2p player may have a newer item first, since an f2p player is more likely to equip the first loot and sell dupes
Wasn't that expensive???? He bought about $2k worth!! 2,800 lucent is $100 on my server dude.
hell yea in 8 days 126h play time and Gear score 3100+ i have absolut no life anymore xD
jesus bro i thought i was doing good with my 2400 in 9 days and 80 hrs of playtime😂
@@xzeraCS3100 means he's probably swiping a bit. Even the top players arent mostly that high
@@xzeraCS U doing good as 2400 if you're F2P. I'm 2450 as F2P too. And you can do any contents as 2400+. You can even join one of top 10 pvp guilds easily.
purelight has a five minute contract loop
You can gather while being attacked
this game is amazing, im having a blast man!! bless finally a good mmo, hope they dont ruin it like they did with wow
buying ur gear defeats the purpose of the game LMAO
are you new to MMO? thats like the norm to wow players so other MMOs copies it too
amazon and NC executives are already looking for new yachts
hopefully they build their yachts on the wrong side of a bridge again. (true story)
23:30 Archage during beta where such a MMO.
this dude was top wow player and now does p2w games.. jeez
Not that pay to win as ppl think, i am free to play gamer, i made like 10k lucent from selling traits and a few big drops.
This feels like Lost Ark. Lots of early hype and early game progression. I feel like end game it's going to completely stall out.
Nah lost ark is far worse. You fail your upgrades 99% of the time. Here you only go forward
@@ryanglacier30 that's true but it's just as p2w if not even more because of the pvp aspect
yeah cause all east MMOs suck lol.. all p2w and insanely grindy to the point its dumb af. Time/money always trumps skill in east MMOs.. also they never do pvp very well tbh like how wow did in the past, and their pve is also generally worse as well when it comes to raids/dungeons etc. all east MMOs know how to do is make a long leveling/gearing system to keep ppl in the loop or spending tons of money to not fall behind. I have played countless MMOs from east and west, western mmos always are better ngl. western does pve and pvp better and is less p2w always.
@@malte4984 not really you can beat players with pure skill quite easily. Especially with less gear. In KR a lot of top players are free to play even with one of the top guilds only consisting of free to play players.
I'll say it, no game does mass pvp better than NC and this is just a fact. Siege in lineage, mass pvp in GW n Aion, BnS with literally the best arena pvp ive ever seen in an mmo, no game company has more experience with pvp than NC.
"Guys it's not pay to win.."
"It wasn't pay to win enough for worst Korea (surely)..."
"Well at least it's not BDO.."
"I spent $1000 last night and I got 2 of my BIS armor pieces... Ack."
YIKES
“Gaming is my hobby and I like to invest in my hobby” oh STFU 😂
@@vei0vis Gaming is his job so it's a bit different. Spending on p2w makes content that makes him money. If you're swiping for gear as a hobby you're just bad and probably have butt acne :().
U got alot of gear drop because its bugged XD. The russian wizard guy explained that on a video
2:00 you can just click you item in your inventory and click "trait list" and it pops up a screen showing the traits that go on that item and you can even instantly search that trait from that screen.
6:05 brother you can click on any item and click "how to aquire" and it tells you ever mob you get the item from. Jesus christ.
Imagine depending on your chat every 5 seconds.
Imagine typing all this thinking Soda will see it. Fucking goofball 😆
i’m at 2800 and have spent $30 lmfao, soda really is just braindead
I earned my battlepass in the game for free by simply playing the game, earning 500 lucent currency, thats much more rewarding imo
How did you earn 500 lucent free?? I’m new just started today lol.
@@OfficialSaintEnzo getting bis loot and selling on the Auctin House, then people like soda buys lmao
the card swipe is real XD
Ull still get rolled in mass pvp lmao
personally if you are only logging in to do chores like raid locks or dailies you should just quit cause you aren't really playing the game then you are just going through the motions cause you have nothing better to play, you should be logging in cause you're having fun playing. No reason to keep playing if all you do is raid log.
Agree
true, but also theres only so much content getting added every day so you can only really grind out what you can from dungeon and such to prep for the big content drops, like this guy can fight some ants for his BiS i have to grind a boss i can only do 3 times a day for 5 items.
i think thats where my problem lies with these asian mmo’s man. like theyre exceptional at making games that are substantive yet hollow at the same time. They make like, a fucking schrodinger’s mmo or something lol.
Yep, thats why I deinstalled this. I’m also desperate for a good mmo, just not that desperate 😂
as someone who played lots of mmos throughout my life, I feel like most of criticism behind p2w of TL is a little bit biased just because it is a korean mmo. I really don't see how P2W in this game is that different to game like WOW where u can rmt with wow token and buy mythic gear on AH. It feels exactly the same to me. I think the reason why it feels more grindy is because most games, u get stronger through what type of gear you have. if you loot a better gear, u work towards better one than that and grind dungeons and raids to do so. but in this game, the number of gears are quite limited to the point where most players will get the best gear relatively quickly but you grind the mats to upgrade that gear. its essentially the same thing but the fact that you dont constantly change into new gear makes it feel like the grind is very slow and tedious.
This is a free game without any subscription and you can buy battle pass with lucent and F2P players can get lucent by selling things in AH. When p2w players swipe, they dont swipe to the devs directly, but they pay the other players so the money circulates which is very different to other p2w games out there where you basically just buy the things from the devs
It is essentially the same system that GW2 uses
I just been filling out the lithographys seems pretty worth to get blues quickly pre 50. Been working on getting purples then upgrading. Rather work on traits when I’m mostly purple
Work on traits early for blessings. Look into trait guides, you'll understand.
traits>purple. its a lot harder(or more expensive) to trait out a purple item compared to a blue
its significantly cheaper to trait blues, and blues with traits (even greens with traits) are better than purple without. you also will want to fully trait your blues (with anything) before you transfer them into purples in order to get blessing stacks. if you are in traited blues you are ahead of 99.9% of players right now
@@jaydentorr7343 i am and do, im not even 50 yet and in full blues and working on traits, im just also doing the lithography at the same time for purples.
@@Adamatere if I understand correctly if you transfer blue with full blessings to purple you will have enough blessing to use blue traits instead of purple with 100% chance?
Isn’t 57k lucent like 2 grand?
are you on clay? im pretty sure we were in a group and i was healing u
13:30 terrible advice for f2p. If you don’t look at a skill or build guide you’re actively hurting yourself
If you plan to pvp I guess. But for just normal open world shit, it really doesn't matter I guess.
I jeep seeing bis everywhere tf does it mean 😂😂
best in slot
well u get get free gear from the shop and and its bis

For anyone wondering : you can play, progress AND compete without investing a single cent.
The p2w aspect is for people who DON'T want to play the game or don't have time
Right but lets call a spade a spade here, its a metric fuckton of farming if you aren't swiping.

Is it a good game ?
they made it like any other phone game out there. stacks of levels per new item per new bracket of tier levels. its a grind fest. this ndustry has no innovation. its not worth grinding for a world with no meaning. their games have no meaning to the world! whats the purpose???
Server optimized 70v70s every 3 hours and the game able to handle more than 2500 people fighting each other in one area, with 0 server lag or desync.
The large scale pvp is the name of the game, but you can't see that cause you're in love with pve games like wow or ff14 where the endgame is p2w and raiding dungeons rinse repeat
To be fair, lineage 2 had an enchanting system as well :p
@@xyr3s grindings fun when theres a purpose like, in world of warcraft when u want to go world pvp so u have to level up a rogue for the first time. the world needs more purposes if that makes sense. it has no point.
U cant separate mmorpg and grind tbh. Mindlessly killing mobs in TL is equivalent to doing same dungeon raid for months for a gear or mount in wow. The difference is in wow the weapon u r having is often upgraded to a better weapon through loot. While in this game, almost everyone will get the actual gears relatively quickly but the grind is about upgrading that specific weapon. Its not a characteristic of a phone game, its more about how traditional mmos work.
my mountly wage is 700 euro and you talk this game is not p2w after you got 57k lucy for money that you make cuz of all viewers you got.... great... just great. You killing whole game industry bro.
just cant get over the fact that this game looks like a 2018 mobile game...
you sell item 16k wow

Long term: hell to the fucking no. Short term: yeah it’s best open world PvP game out right now
nah
no, i got to max level today and endgame is garbage.
@@knowlen "open world" pvp is only at certain events and in certain locations, 90+% pf the content will be pve, and pvp world bosses are just a spam fest.
if you REALLY want to play something like it then yea but it's not a quality game imo
Yeah it's not p2w, until you do the math and you realize that if you want to purple-max your active and passive skills, you will need to farm mats for growth stones, for roughly a year... Ppl talk about the gear, but the reality is you can get lucky and get your BiS from a drop. And you only need to lvl up 1 or 2 weapons, where as for skills you need 12 of them at least, for 1 build and in some cases even more, if you swap skills in different situations. Talking about changing builds as f2p is out of the question. Better start new character... Another issue is that for gear you can transfer lower tier, for example a +6 purple with +9 blue transfer will get that purple to +9. You can not do that with skills. You just have to farm the mats for growth stones like crazy. Conversion rates are also bad, so if you do not get lucky on your upgrade rolls, you will need a ***** TON of growth stones for only 1 skill.........
The system is convoluted. They really should have added more ways to obtain growth stones from hunting monsters in the world. The whole idea of crafting using materials is inefficient. People dont got time for that.
This game is trying to trick people into thinking a p2w game isnt p2w, and so are the sellout streamers, obviouus
good game
57k😂😂😂😂
prices will drop significantly. this game can and will be played F2P easily. you just wont have the best gear tomorrow. if you have a little patience and invest some time. you can all this crap for free AND make lucent F2P. you can actually make TONS of lucent especially if you make a second char.
