With reason why i quit, left unsaid. Not being known here, so i figured id just ask a few questions.

Is it really worth coming back? How bad are the bot problems now a days. Now of course, you get the mixed reviews on server connection. Is it really as bad as many people are saying it is? Are you really still not able to connect after hours?

Now with those few questions stated how about these. On my current account, i have a level 35 pure int s/s nuker. Would it be pointless to go back to her? Or should i just make a wizard with wizard/bard skills?

It seems like the euro wizards can easily be one shotted by any melee, but where china nukers can, but its kinda rare.

So help me make my decision please? haha.

I didn't had too much problems with connecting. Bots are back I heard but meh, SRO will probably never get bot free anyways.

If you like the build of the nuker, just continue. It's about having fun in the first place.

If you truely like the game and want to play, you don't give a shit about the bots or the build of your character. :)

Still not sure? Go play for a bunch of days, see if you feel like playing or not.

well the connection issues are different for each server. alotta ppl say they cant connect but i have no prob connecting. i can get on any time in the day on the first try.

if you wanna try something new then u could make a euro. it depends on how u want to play.if you wanna play as a team then make a euro but if u just wanna grind solo then stick wit a chinese. and ya wizards can be 1 shot alot but they can also kill in 1 hit too. i made a euro but it got boring. its good if u wanna take a break for a lil bit and just have fun partying

Bots are always a problem....just as bad as ever if you ask me. Even though joymax claims to be "Working" on the problem.

and I still play my s/s nuker and pwn most euros of equal level. Full SoS/SoM FTW. Hardly any euros have SoS sets :P

Euros are strong though dont get me wrong. Probably worth rerollin a rogue.

Yah, thats true. I think i just may start over on a new server as a wizard.

Anything below 60 isnt too major for me, im a casual player. I dont need to be 70-80 in a month. I work alot, so i just like to have a game to play for the times i am home.

Hows the grouping on euro going? Knowing joymax isnt a true big mmo company, them having a grouping system where you have to work together is a little odd. Hows it working out?

*EDIT*

I guess, its the fact of sp farming with my character. On my int nuker i didnt sp farm, i just leveled with a 3 level gap, kept things updated like that.

Now a days from what i read, i could be wrong it seems that if you arent fully sp farmed 9 level gap your character cannot be strong?

It seems on euro, as you dont have to sp farm. Now i come from, many mmos. Dating from back to Ultima Online, to everquest for a couple years, dark age of camelot, everquest 2, vanguard, and so on. So im used to the whole grouping to grind thing. Believe me, most of the time i did grind i was in a group.

Q: Is it really worth coming back?
A: You dont get any prices, just a fun time and maybe some new friends. :)

Q: How bad is the bot problem?
A: Well... Dont care about them just grind and have fun job/pvp/war.

Q: Server connection
A: Can get a little laggy some times on a day, but it's much easier to get on then before. (You should get in in 5-10~ minutes when crowded)

Q: Should i go back to my S/S Nuker, LVL35?
A: That's your decision but if you do be sure to lvl up cold to get the snow shield it's really nice. And nukers are really fun to grind with.

The answers above is MY opinion.

Party system works alot better than I expected it to. I have a lvl 27 warrior and getting into parties is pretty easy.

BTW you should join Zeus :D

yo europe is alot more fun, though chinese is kinda fun too, Wizzards hit hard core, i was escorting a trade run with a lvl 33 pure int garments, and this wizzard with teh lvl 42 staff hit me for 9582 dmg.........., garments sure didn't help me out alot there, that woud have iced even a full str, europeans have lower defenses (warrior excluded) but their dmg is well pretty damn good. I even went to china with my lvl 30 cleric to you know see how i stacked up, chinese creatures are weaker then the european ones, its just that the european one's seam so weak because you deal so much, a lvl 20 wizzard can 2 hit a earth ghost, My lvl 30 cleric was out fighting yeowa's just to see how far i could go, boy those thigns hurt, i'm full int and robes so i can't take much from them, i finally got killed when i got swarmed by a group of 3 normals plus a champ of the red ones, i was hoping to live long enough to make it into the bandit camp but oh well, i was surprised how much weaker they were compared to the huns
