Greetings & Some Thoughts

Hello.
It took a few days to get to use the forums (I heard their were issues with posting here anyway) . I recently dropped $20 due to the welcoming pack (and the sake of getting more mileage out of my review) and while it is nice, I can see why the Mist System would put people off (who knows, maybe once we get more content we won’t need it any longer to explore).
Though as a new person I could see some things I’d like to have in game once OOO gets around to it and if they think it’s good enough.
- More “cute” gear: It’s more of an ascetic thing but I would appreciate more female helmets (even if they are costumes and if costumes only be reasonably priced). Who knows, we could end up seeing some knighs with two front balloons.
- Armor that (slowly) recovers health overtime: Clockwork runs can be brutal….buying Crystal Energy can be brutal…spending that Crystal Energy on revives can be REALLY brutal. Even if you need to stand still to get it to work it would be nice to have.
- Life Drain Weapons: Even if it means they’re slow or weak in terms of damage.
- Other Weapons besides guns/bombs/swords: They’re KNIGHTS for crying out loud! Where are the axes, the maces, the spears, etc…?
- Converting Crystal Energy into Mist Tanks: It might seem senseless for some but for others it could help them keep their spending in check and to ensure they got a store of energy for Clockwork plunges (of course this conversion would be one way and the price for said conversion would need to be tweaked to insure the system doesn’t get broken in half).

We need a quote system here and...
Well, the looks thing is more for trying to look more standout-ish.
The armor, perhaps might be a bad idea, but I'd still like to see some weapons that do life drain (like gain about 20% of the damage you do). And that CE price seems fair.

A couple things.
Firstly @Monkey Man.
Disagreeing with EVERY SINGLE NEW PERSON IN SUGGESTIONS to their opinions on the game is completely wrong. Just because you only like to do FSC runs every single day in and out with your vog cub and grey owlite doesn't mean everyone else wants to, there are many kinds of NEW players here, and i'm impressed that a lot of new people are posting on the forums, it's good for new opinions since before 3 days ago there were only about 800 active people online in game at one time or less. Last but not least, please post with correct grammar and punctuation because except for when I looked at your post and date joined, I thought you had just started playing this game.
Secondly @Kawaiido, I love your input and opinion into this game for as long as you have been playing, we need more people like you to help advance the community.
Lastly let me give you my input into your post:

1. I have heard this from many players and from many people in my guild, and I would have to agree to this. More cute armour (even if it were not necessarily good armor or costume armor would be pretty cool. I personally love my white and black rose chapeau's because of this, they just look awesome.
2. I would have to agree with this also, however I would feel to compensate for this that it's defense stats (not resistance to status) should be sightly weakened to compensate for this.
3. life drain weapons? What do you mean by life drain weapons? Like leech health or something else in another game like in oblivion?
4. YES. I would completely agree, they probably are in development, we just haven't seen them yet or heard of them.
5. I would disagree about this or make it have an off balance to the transfer of this, if you have friends, then they just can send you ce in the mail, or tanks for that matter.
But other then that good job!

Thanks, March. So from what I read that monkey man is one of those Stop Having Fun Guys that likes to ruin anything casual (I HATE those people! They're POISON to any game).
By Life Drain I mean it recovers a portion of the damage you deal to the enemy. As for the armor, sure whatever balances it out.

I think I'll chime in on the
I think I'll chime in on the different armor, too. Personally, I love when games offer a lot of customization as to how you character looks, even if it's only cosmetic, so I'd really like to see more costume armor in general. It might offer an extra crown sink to higher-level players once they run out of other things to spend their crowns on.
On that note, maybe the "more feminine armor/helmets" could be solved by having masculine and feminine versions of standard armor. (I think I saw that suggested before.) I'm sure that would be easier than having to create a lot of new things since you'd really just have to alter what is already there.
Just a couple things I'd like to see. c:

Male or female
On the Armour thing they could just give you the ability to choose male or female at the beginning and the armour changes to fit the gender but i guess that would really only give larger breast plates and what not

first off get your facts straight march
1. i don't disagree with every single suggestion (i did say i didn't care for the armor it doesnt mean i dont want it to happen same with the weapons or did u miss that portion) i have found some i do like but i don't want to chance them ACTUALLY HAPPENING i want those who choose whether to implement something or not to know someone agrees or disagrees i happen to disagree a lot because a lot of people r new and r trying to make this game like every other game...
2. i don't have vog cub or any 5* equipment yet and i rarely do FSC because of my equipment
3. dont give me that grammar na zi garbage this isn't english class. just be grateful i dont use the extreme leet speak (o look i used a period that time) u thought i just started playing BECAUSE of the way i type? how ludicrous
Thanks, March. So from what I read that monkey man is one of those (I HATE those people! They're POISON to any game).
By Life Drain I mean it recovers a portion of the damage you deal to the enemy. As for the armor, sure whatever balances it out.
ironically i think YOU r one of those "....Guys that likes to ruin anything casual" some of these ideas would RUIN THIS GAME i am merely stating my opinion
if someone is going to post something on "well this is his/her opinion" well i am not stopping them from posting merely dropping my 2 cents

Im crossing my fingers that
Im crossing my fingers that PVP will be non energy. they need more crown sinks and less CE sinks. they would be foolish not to implement PVP with a crown entry fee IMO.
life gain/drain gear is probably out of the question.
theres wrench wand for non sword/gun/bomb weapon (although its technically still a sword), and im pretty sure more different types of weapons are being developed. they will probably stay in the 3 classes (sword/gun/bomb) for the foreseeable future tho. im not complaining since it works pretty much...
if you want a way to "store" CE, post your CE on the market for like double its current value. you can cancel it anytime to get your CE back and if it DOES sell, well youve probably made a profit. itll stay there for like a week before getting delisted and you will get a full refund when that does happen.

1. More cute gear. Sure why
1. More cute gear. Sure why not. I'm all for new gear, whether its real armor or just costume. If its real I hope its useful though. I'm not a fan of most of the 5* armors actually (not to mention I'm not shelling out the CE to craft my costume to 5*) and normally wear the Spiral Tailed Helm (starter pig tailed helm) and an Angelic Raiment as my costume. So I wouldn't mind more options.
2. If you regenerated health naturally in this game I'd say sure. Seeing as we don't I'd have to disagree on this one. This would make the Clockworks too easy. "Oh look, I have 1 bar left and I know there's a huge fight in the next room. Easy fix..." *tapes an arrow key down so I don't disconnect due to idle and goes to watch tv while my health refills*
3. Same as number 2 to a degree, although this one would be more situational. Tiles that spawn enemies might as well spawn hearts with this kind of weapon, same for Grim Totems and Phantoms. Not to mention JK would become stupidly easy with the huge mobs you could hit to regain health.
4. I am sure more are in the works. There's no reason all melee weapons couldn't fall under the sword category. Off the top of my head I know there's a wrench, a lot of swords, a couple shovels, a couple pickaxes, and Goddess knows what else. They all operate the same to a certain degree.
5. The benefit of CE is that it can be traded, sold, and used as currency. Turning it into Mist tanks would take away the other uses of it while not actually keeping you from wasting it. The main uses of energy (crafting, clockworks, rev) don't care if its ME or CE, it just uses ME first.

gear and stuff i could care less for its function that should matter not form
thats the point the clockworks are suppose to be brutal something like that would offset that difficulty
no thanks i think we are good without the life drain
well i am sure they are developing more weapons as to what they are we can never know
ok 200 CE into a single non-tradeable mist tank
