Great combat mechanics, extensive environment and good back story. Fort battles, territory invasions, third non playing faction (Balaur) that could pop up in the middle of battles.
But.....
The all too familiar failings of eastern ports over here.
Horrendous original grind - you think it's bad now? You should have been there at launch.
Again, horrendous rng in upgrading weapons and gear at launch - one fail and complete wipe out of all the item enchants.
Punishing death penalty that removed experience - people lost whole levels and couldn't afford to recover them due to the health repair costs.
From a guild of well over 50 consistently active players, we finished up with myself and one other.
Changes where made to the above points - but of course months, years too late. By then the horse had not only bolted - it had disappeared over the horizon.
I really did enjoy aspects of this game despite all the issues, which is why I'm frustrated by the missed opportunity.

Horrendous original grind at launch? have you checked this game lately? now if you fail enchanting an item you know what? the item is destroyed... not just the enchant.
Atrocious level experience, basically you have to level up the last 10 levels repeating the same quests, over and over and over. It is HUGE the amount of XP is required from level 66 to 75.
P2W everywhere, you want to level up, go to the shop, you want enchants, shop, and now with the last update the luna dontknowwhat,you can even buy gear.
I have been playing this game since launch, but i cant support it anymore, i took the advice some told me, you dont like it, go play WoW.
Have any of you stating they don't like the game - played the game recently? The game just boosted to 5.0 and now 5.1. As for pay to win - you cannot get your gear or refines for your gear (the plume yes - but not the armor, weapons, etc) in the game shop.
False. You can buy Luna coins, and with Luna coins you can buy the keys to open the chests, and inside the chest you can even find Ambassador PvP gear. The thingy people farm for years...
I still play it, but IT IS P2W now. Also unlimited enchantment level for accessories, plumes, all of them enchanted with tempering solutions, to give 0.5% of pvp bonus per level. Guess where you can find the tempering solutions?
