Would Silkroad be better off if SoM/SoSun never existed?

That's just a tought. If Seal of Moon or Seal of Sun weapons or equipment never existed, the game wouldn't be so imbalanced as it is now. Everyone would have to do with regular weapons or Seal of Star.

This is a post just out of curiousity, to see if anyone agrees with me. It's not like anything will come out from this.

It would make the game much more balanced overall

yes short answer: it would improve the economy and make
the game more balanced

no short answer: the game neads "leet" weapons to have something to
reach for

it would be different...and balanced.

it would be cool if they had like a week event where all your gear is npc gear with no +'s.

then we will see the day and life of a npc warrior

Yea why not so nobody cant say you and you blahblah ...But hmm they looks nice anyway so nope I want keep them ..

i think the game would be better off without them and just have it based on alchamey (you know anyone can get the same stats and blues on eqiup and weap therefore making it more balanced)..........but thats just me :wink:

If they could control bots, then I would say keep the SoM / SoSun.

However, in the current situation, its the bots who are getting the SoM / SoSun drops for the most part, being able to kill more monsters than is humanly possible. That makes the game totally imbalanced in favor of the cheaters. So i say remove, or at least make the guardian system nice and easy to get SoSun-equivalent. Even then, that means botters can all get Sosun by botting their noob chars.

Tbh yeah. It would make for a more balanced game. As I type this theres two people with soX weapons on Rome pwning jangan. One theif with sox and one hunter. They are just working together going all around jangan killin theives/hunters and takin all the loot. And literally noone can kill them simply because of these damn Sosun weapons which hit a lvl 80 for 12k+ a hit.

If they removed all the SoX yes the game would be better.
But knowing joymax they wont

hehe and if that happens they should add more interesting jobs
try to make a system to remove bots(I said try...)
more interesting quests and story based quests
increase xp rates to make it so you wont have to spend a whole week getting one level
get new in game money pets
more customization on characters
yeah this game would be so much better if these things happened

a better idea is to make sos,som & sosuns un plusable

Morlaf · **Joined:** Jan 2007 **Posts:** 84 **Location:**

Atm, sosuns are needed to kill anyone at the 80 cap. However, once they upgrade the skills, the people with full sosun who can't kill you now, are going to be fkn terrifying. :shock:

So I wouldn't completely remove sox just yet, but I'd make it harder to get somehow -.-

If you get lucky and get a sosun drop, or work hard and make the money for 1 you deserve to have it.

Unfortunately only the gold buyers/scammers/botters seem to have them. With maybe 1 or 2 exceptions of course.

Don't blame the weapons, blame the assholes who cheated to get them.

Since I know how it was without any SoX items, it was way more fun to PVP because everyone had a chance heck even the people with +2 or +3 weapons. I like the new alchemy of adding blues and all, but seal items kind of ruined it in my opinion. But like someone said it does give you something to reach for.

it would be more balance in a way. but also not.

e.g, those who have the money to buy decent sos weapons have put hard work into the game (or bought gold). but generally have put hard work.

also, in all games theres a goal/aim, and for alot of people, mini aims are sos weapons

also, sos weapons and items make the game balanced aswell because in my case, because 3 of my items are sos, and one is som. it helps my int so much i can handle people 5/6 levels higher than me ^-^

*all this from the sos biased noob called me XD

Personally i dont think they should be removed because its does give people something to go for. But now 8D sun weapons there are too many, liked it better when they were only a couple before the takla update.

Why not make all the weaps SoSuns? XD

With the way silkroad turned out, it definatly would, botters wouldn't have such and advantage in pvp then since most every botters at high lvls has em.

No som/sun with current Sro = weaker bots more then anything lol.

Im cursed. The best SoX dropp for me were Lv36 female garment trousers
