Catch a DK by its toe, Clide hits 52 oh oh

I do not know the secret of success. However, I do know the secret of failure, and that is to please everybody, but if you play with “good manner, you too will be a DK soon” just like our newest Death Knight, Clide. The Clide account, which is named after him, has been active for about six months, even though he has played for a year and a half, and gets played solely by him for about ten to twelve hours a day. He was a constitution knight that added his points to strength so it is currently 18strength, 18 constitution.

He gains about 5% a day hunting in Dragon Valley caves although he says level 49 is much harder than level 50. You have to kill the same amount of skeletons, about 50,000, but at level 50 with the damage bonus they die in 1 less swing. That is 50,000 less swings you have to make which amounts to about 5,000 skeletons more he can kill in the same amount of time. Clide has died twelve times since getting to level 49, seven were at 49, one at 50, and four at 51, but despite this he still got to 52 even though he couldn’t have done it without his elves. He blames this on the frequent disconnections he has, but that makes him try even harder, sometimes playing five more hours than normal after a death.

In his opinion, Poseidon is a Lineageoholic but he’s glad that someone got to level 70. He’s never even considered the LoA server, and doesn’t think he will go to Lineage II despite the graphics being very cool. He says he chose Depardieu over Ken Rauhel because he saw Depardieu before he saw Ken and has only Pked 3 times ever and has a PK count of zero. He’s glad he doesn’t have to play on the Korean servers though because there are so many people it is hard to kill monsters. Clide feels that very soon there will be many more Death Knights in his pledge, and he will try and help the elves who once helped him.

You play 10-12 hours a day and your calling Posiedon a lineageoholic?

anyways, nice to know someone did it by them selfs and not with 4 people on same account.

also another question: isn't elven guard an elf only pledge?

another lvl 52 knight
don't really care if one or more ppl play the account
the point is reaching lvl 52, something u feel proud of yourself or your friends in reaching

and yea...I wanna know the weapon and AC these ppl r using
more things to debate about...lol

I really want to see some mages/princes/elves reaching lvl 50+ dammit...
I know a few that r close, but, heck, enough knights already!

lol
i know a lot of elfs who try to go for level 50, but it's just too damn time consuming.. they usually get to around 80% at level 49, then find the game getting too boring because of hunting all day, then quit =[

Or, elfs get really high %, then suddenly lag die once or twice, and lose like a month wroth of hunting, so they'll just blow their stuff and quit

Knights on the other hand are easier to level, and are more fun if you participate in fights and stuff...
It is hard for elfs to fight =[, elfs get stun-locked easier than knights. Also, becuase of Blood To Soul, I find elfs over-relying on that and heal, EVEN at fights.. and therefore dying sometimes =[

Well.. ultimately, elfs are MUCH MUCH MUCH harder to level than knights cuz 1) they're boring, 2) they're weak (especially with soft ac)

Ummm, SpiritZ, do you know what your talking about?

Quote -
"Well.. ultimately, elfs are MUCH MUCH MUCH harder to level than knights cuz 1) they're boring, 2) they're weak (especially with soft ac)"

True, they are much harder than knights to lvl and make money at, but how can you say that they are boring? You can play a knight with your eyes closed and both hands tied behind you back (no offense 50+ knights, congrats). Elves take much more thought and a good deal of experience as well.

If NC would please fix it so wafers effect elf swing speed, I would really like to see a lvl 52 con/str elf take on a lvl 52 knight.

Also, to all those elf haters out there, who saves your butt at sieges most of the time? dex elves! Next time your sieging or defending, try it out without elves (aww too bad, no e-skin either).

I tell them to shut their trap and make an earth elf if they want skin. Knights get awesome ac, awesome weaps, awesome cash, and awesome lvling - we at least should be allowed to have something they don't.

Btw, just cause you knights get easier everything(see above) doesnt give you the right to call everyone else a noob.

Just wish NC would even up the playing field.

Congratulations to CLiDe!

To reach level 52 on ones own is an amazing accomplishment.
I personally know of others that have hit high level, but they use the help of their friends to accomplish that, by sharing the account. It is just not the same thing. To be able to do it on ones own takes alot of strength.
Good work!

reaching lvl 50+
requires time
of course, either we have the time to spare or we don't
reason we ask friends to give us a hand
that is what this game is about
when your friends help u
not only do u reach your goal and proud of it
but u can celebrate with your friends is achieving where u thought u could never reach
