I don't know I feel SE is approaching the bot and RMT issue from the wrong angle, instead of in game changes and nerfs, why not non-invasive system scans like WoW?

Re: Update (April 17 2006) Details

I've been looking through some of the item changes. Its hard to use POL utilities to compaire the differences since almost everything has had a new job or two added to it.

Strangely the AF for the new jobs are in there but with no names or descriptions.

Some of the other equipment does have desriptions though an it looks pretty impressive. Use POLUtils and have a browse.

The new Maat quests aren't in there yet, and I doubt the new AF quests are either. I highly doubt SE expects anyone to be a lv70 pup, blu, or cor before at least a month. lol

It's possible to reach 40 (AF1) in two weeks. Three weeks easy. Possibly lvl 50 by then.

Re: Update (April 17 2006) Details

Yeah, I marathoned my RDM to lv62 to catchup to my friends. I think it only took about 3 weeks tops. From lv4-62. Averaged about 3lvls a day until the 50s, then it was maybe 1-2 until 60. Of course taking breaks along the way to acquire the appropriate AF. And my gear was always good and I had all the up to date spells^^

Someone will be 75 on one of the new jobs before the next update, that's forsure

And do we know when PLD gets auto-refresh? That's the first thing I wanta check when I get on (PLD is 28 so I'll know if 25 or not)

iron bullets/kabura arrows/silver bullets/acid bolts/sleep bolts/blind bolts/bloody bolts/venom bolts/holy bolts/scorpion arrows/sleep arrows/demon arrows/spartan bullets

Odd that bodkins aren't in there.

Re: Update (April 17 2006) Details

Yeah we'll find out, just wondering why someone seemed to imply they knew it was not 38+.

...I didn't even notice. Some woodworker I am. >_>a Oh well. I don't really touch those arrows anyway.

I bet we'll see a few CORs level as fast as BRDs can now. I wouldn't doubt that within 2 months we'll have people at level 75 on new jobs.

Re: Update (April 17 2006) Details

Only reason I have any use for bodkins is b/c my rng is 50 right now, and those are the best at this point. I've already passed them for ww leveling purposes. I'm hoping it was a misprint, but I doubt it.

Here's a question. The old way to get Maat's cap was beat maat with every job. Does it still have to be every job, or now every job -3. {Hmmm.}
Is the puppetmaster supposed to be the new refresher? I saw the "dark maneuver" thing that said mp recovery. I'm guessing that'll make it the new refresher job. Be interesting to see how it works.

The amount of TP accumulated when attacking a monster has changed for both the player and the monster.
