Just curious, what percentage of players in OB seems to be crafting, or gathering, or just exploring?

From your shot of the rabbit, there seemed to be a lot of crafting going on.

There seems to be a good deal of crafting and gathering. I think it'll be fairly popular amongst the experienced MMOer that knows having a decent income is well worth it in the long run over powering a job lol.

I'll also see how the "out of the box" jobs fair. I think I'll definitely have a melee/mage and gathering/crafter since the crafting job will no doubt cost more money than I'll have from just crafting at the start..and with the obserd amount of crystals you need to craft the melee/mage jobs will help support that too lol.

Wonder how "hidden" crafts are going to be. At least the game tells you what crystals you need if you guess the right combination of materials.

I'm sure the majority of the craft receipies will be discovered through local guildleves though. Those seem like the best bet for early skill ups as they give you the materials.

Wish crafting wasn't a job tbh lol. It's not gonna be anything special later on unless they stop leves at some point. Don't want an aion repeat of crafting. THough it won't be that bad but it'll end there eventually

Client -> Server has some lag. Not sure if it's related to video lag or if it's the network ping times.
After some testing, I'm leaning on getting a new vid card. ATI or NVidia hmm..

I miss the bounce tarus had when they had no knees lol.

Seeing the stats I'm actually thinking of going with the Hellsguard Roegadyn. Downloading the version update is taking forever though so I haven't made it in.

It's the video "lag" that's affecting the input (menus, slight lag in input movement, etc). Tried it at 1024x768, it wasn't as bad as widescreen-ed 1366x768.

i7-920 2.8GHz
6GB RAM
8800GTX 768MB
Win7 x64

Anyone know if stats can be modified after allocation in the full release?
