That's like saying prostate cancer is your favorite cancer to have (because of it's 99% survivability rate). =/


Are you implying f2p games are not good? DOM! :shock: well, I put GW right there with Rohan and RYL.

Is anyone joining RYL Torment? :)

I downloaded the client and I'll try it out next Sunday or Monday.
Are there any good guides?
I'm looking for a mage class (race doesn't matter) who focusses on dealing damage and preferably no support, though I could cope with minor support.

Some sort of newbie guide though nothing about race and classes were mentioned.

Human side:
Sorcerer - damage dealer Guide
Enchanter - debuff + slight damage dealer + slight buffing Guide

Akkan side:
Rune officiator - debuff + damage dealer (extremely low defence compared to human mage classes as they can't wield a shield but has Response Intensified. Guide

Those so called class guides are more like build discussion threads, so you are introduced to various builds that the specific class has. I would say not to worry much about builds because both stats and skills can be altered at will and it's not hard to restart a new character if you want to try a different class. What I think most important first is to get on the game and get used to the system.

If you have any questions regarding the basics of this game, feel free to ask considered I've played this game for years, or you could post at Torment forums.

Just wanted to add that melee classes normal attacks/slashes are AOE as well, which I think is frigging amazing. I'll add a screenshot of that later.

Spoiler for melee AOE attacks, up to 5 targets.
Spoiler!

What you should do is not let the client auto patch the because client is for official MY server.

You should install the RYL v557, don't run it. Download and install the latest patch for Torment v712. After that, run the game. The client will autopatch for RYL Torment if any is required.

If you're having problems with GameGuard, check this link.

Played RYL2 a while bacl, got to lvl 55 and quit because you always died in one hit no matter what class you were.

Rohan is the game for me though but Shaiya is great to (lvl 40 so far).

Downloading the RYL client right now but ill probably be an Akkan

btw cant enter their forums too as i cant receive their confirmation mail ( stupidest thing ever created) btw im using gmail.com so i dont know a single reason for it not to arrive...

Gameplay is the same but I think the graphics are not as good as RYL2. Other stuff like new enhancing system, new skills, dodging ability and top stat gears (eg. 260 con armor) kinda messed the nature of the game, so I prefer RYL1.

Change the graphic setup by clicking setup before selecting server.

Not really lol, Misery Island is pretty quiet :P I have a quest that requires me to look for someone there anyways.

Yeah I had that problem as well, I just have mid settings and turn on everything to get the "highest" graphic setting.

What you might want to do is to play RYL in higher resolution because screen these days are way bigger. If you do, check out this link. Personally I'm playing with 1280x800 because the resolution they have is just too small.

I forgot to add a newbie guide for RYL Torment, just in case you haven't browsed their forums, which can be found here.

For Akkans yeah. These quests are at 80 and above I think, and they reward good items, XP and gold. But nonetheless, they are a pain in the butt to do.
