    There were events weekly to boost you exp and dailies which is something that I liked (apart of invasion event that starts at 1 am at my time and ends at 2 am) but once I reached my 40s in the game events always give you less exp after every level till a certain point that is useless doing them anymore (getting 3% exp from an event it's not worth it imo)
    So my only way on leveling was getting quests and do them (there's a hell lot of quests) many kill 50 of x mob there were even higher ones I think and when you went to finish quest you would get like 5% of exp and to add to it mobs exp suck.
    So I got bored trying to level and eventually stopped playing it.

     

    What the hell are you talking about? you must be playing a different game man. There is no kill 50 mobs or higher O.o and the quest xp is worth the time spent. In S.U.N you level good by doing the quest with an actual small script of a story, each quest ends with you having to killed a leader or captain. The game is fun and have a good in game community with a few jackasses. The community on the forums of ijji need some serious help.  This is by far the best korean MMO out even thou we get the half stick of the US version.

    have you even read up on my other post about SUN? I don't need to try it.

    Yeah being killed with a clean name by someone  with dirty name should not make you drop your goods, only they should drop there items if killed. It is kinda backwards cause when I kill the bad names they drop jack sht.

    Hi, first post here just wanted to comment on SUN. I've been playing the game (ijji's version) since the OP and really like the game. Graphics are nice I have mine maxed at 1600x1200 with little or no stutter. I just got my main character to lev61 and have run through available quests, now what is asked of you is to repeat some quest for Area Conquest (AC) which you recieve rewards for after 10%, 20, 30,40,50..etc...in each of the three available areas.  With a good party helping (the experience is greater with full parties) leveling to the current cap of 70 should not take too long, but I can always wait till the next update and have an easier time. Grinding isn't nessesary. I'm not a pvp person per say, but have had the same experience with high levels taking out nOObs in certain areas...sucks, but if you switch servers you most likely will find the second one empty and have a free shot at the quest. I'm also willing to help out anyone that needs it... my IGN is Abernathy---(gender locked classes, what can you do..) also my guild "GamersSyndicate" is always reqruiting...

    Compared to other mmo's where grind is the base for leveling I've found SUN to be XP friendly with Quests, of course you'll be lost with your first char and might take a bit of time to get used to the system, but you can easily get up to lvl 20 in 4-5 hours perhaps less once you know how to move and where to go.

     

    Graphics are nice and the zones I've been too are great, the effect when you look through ice is nicely done, if you are tired of massive grind mmo's you MUST give SUN a chance, next month we are supposed to get a update adding more quests for lvl 60+ thus reducing grind also lvl cap will be raised.

    I hope so, we may actually get 2 as the webzen version just had level cap raised to 100, but no new quests (but three tower areas...you have to pay for a key to enter) until the December-ish update. Whats even more exciting, if it lasts long enough, is that the Korean version just got mounts!!!!!!!!

    SUN is nothing like SRO not even close. SUN got a good story, good game play and no grind. The models are well done dude, what are you talking about?  looks nothing like the toons on SRO mess.

    I am actually looking for a grindfest game but i see here SUN is not one of these. Maybe now i should start a new thread bashing it just cause it's not my thing heh OP?

    "Traditionally, massively multiplier online games have been about three basic gameplay pillars – combat, exploration and character progression. In Alganon, in addition to these we've added the fourth pillar to the equation: Copy & Paste."

    I have to agree with another guy here that said you re looking stupid when you write such things without even  know about the game.

    First of all it's THE MOST NON-GRIND game ever. You CAN'T level by grinding and you DON'T NEED too, because you lvl with quests.

    Currently the game is in a beta and it doesnt have much content yet, and the max lvl is 70 right now, although after 60-61 you don't have anymore quests.

    This games rocks, it has long,big dungeons with great atmhosphere, great graphics, nice looking mobs especially bosses, nice equipment, a ton of skills etc.

    Can't wait for the update

    actually the closed beta version, which includes NA, UK, Mexico, pretty much is Ijji Version, is  a grindfest starting at lvl 79+. I wouldn't really recommend anyone who hasn't tried this game as of yet since there are several minor bugs and exploits that Webzen stated they are not going to fix as of yet. I would rather wait until the new games are out this Q1.

    DL'ing it right now, but from what I read so far and seen...This game is kinda like Rappelz but updated and different classes (and so on...obviously lol) and its graphics is that of 9dragons....definetly 9dragon graphics, I mean the sceneries and all...Omg...such eye capturing/beautiful scenery. Which is the one of the small reasons why Im going to play it, ahh another thing my IGN will be Munoo, Davio or Saskie....so pm me so we can chill online. I must say though...>.> the whole fatigue thing is kinda of a downside for me, I hate not being about to play till the next day and only for 12 hours >.< Correct me if Im wrong, cause I sure hope I am lawlz.

    Hey no spamming on my post or anything, just stating my obversations

    SoF Main:Lvl 90 Snowster/Order Sword
    9dragon Main:FC8 Munoo/Wu-tang Sword
    Silkroad Main:Lvl 75 DAGZ/Sword
    Rappelz Main:Lvl 50 Munoo/Kahuna/Jblvl 40

    It is a really good game,I suggest everybody to atleast try it,the gamefile is only 1.89 Gb in size and the create-an-account is quick and easy...

    Its a good game, very quest driven at the start. I got into it for a bit, left then came back and the servers were dead (ijji).

    Wrote this game off before when i played in CB but just gave it another shot today and im glad i did, its actually quite fun. Grinding seems alot less than most others, graphics are decent enough, plenty of quests that atleast have some story to them, fast paced combat and in general can be quite fun. On a long term base though, you might get bored from grinding the dungeons since they do take quite a bit to complete and in general the lack of other content besides combat might turn you off.
