What the crud.

Interesting. I'm level 1.5k and I never had problem with the new commercing o.o

In fact, I liked it more since I got my ruthless and rough badges WAY faster. And now I have the Ambush enchant :D

And Pyro, from what I can see, they increased the chance of stronger bandits showing up, not more common.

And Spaghadeity, I had that happen before. I DCed, and logged into a different channel, with the exact same mobs. Let's just say that devCat does random things.

And even in commerce, I found the bandits to be fightable o.o

50% decrease in damage does slow things down, but if you have a high damage yourself, it shouldn't be a big problem (My damage is 246~398, using my battle swords, 7.4k crit smash w/out trans)

And again, even as commerce gets more annoying, we can't change it can we? :/ You just have to get used to it.

A bit off-topic, but how the hell do you have THAT much damage? I'm only 2.1k and my dmg is 176~271 w/ Fomor Falcatas.

Battle Sword gives much more damage than Fomor Falcatas, plus my battle swords are special upgraded with red stones o.o

And I'm pretty much maxed out on melee, only lance charge, final hit (2 ranks) and charge (only 2 ranks) left to go, and carpentry, fireball, blaze, fishing o-o

And I also use clothing (extraordinary ambush) with accesories for damage. My damage is 255~410 now. Without my combat gear, I do 212~343, so I get good amount of damage from enchant.
