Ask a kMS player anything

Hrm, well I do these every couple months and they always come out to be pretty fun.

These are normally pretty fun and informative as long as people keep posting and everyone is mature throughout the conversation.

You may want to ask me about upcoming content, my opinion on changes that have happened, new classes or really anything else under the sun!

First ill get a few commonly asked question out of the way.

1)For the love of god, cubes don't drop in KMS
2)I know not one word of korean
3)I'm not here to advertise my forum and anyone who does so, I will report
4)I have a 200 demonslayer and nearly 190 Kaiser in KMS along with other minor characters below 160
5)There is no LHC party exp, no mp3 and no NLC in KMS

Finally, here's proof because someone always asks http://i.imgur.com/dKsB4.jpg

[quote=Coolninja111]Can phantoms still hs/buff other classes besides themselves?[/quote]

Yeah they can. They just last only 60% of the duration.

and with that ill be closing the thread. I've been answering questions for about an hour now and I'm starting to get tired of it. Not to mention I feel really poor from the flu. Thanks to everyone who came out and kept this thread alive, I hope you took something away

Anyway, later.

[quote=LazyLotad]Could you tell me how KMS is for brand new players. Would you say the curve from being poor to being funded is steep or shallow (in other words is it tough out there for us noobs?)?
Also, I know that getting registered for KMS is sort of hush hush, but could you at least tell me if it is easy to set up KMS (like just looking up a few things on the internet) or do you need to know exactly what you are doing (like knowing how to be sneaky with a computer or some sort)?
I'm not asking for any websites or anything that will possibly get you into trouble, I just want to know how hard it is to register.
I tried getting involved in KMS a few years back and it was impossible for me so I had to give up and just come back to GMS.[/quote]

basically what Deception said, it's easy to get into and even easier to set up.

[quote=JayShee]Why you hating on burster.[/quote]

Being a new person in KMS is easy to deal with, as events are new people friendly.
You can easily google KMS sites, like Ellin Forest, and Leafre

Opinions of Luminous?

Which is the worse KSer out of the two? (Kaiser or Luminous)
Which is the worst KSer period? ( Besides Burster )
Best Bosser? (Besides Burster.)[/quote]

I love Kaiser

I hate Luminous

Luminous is a better KSer

Burster is a terrible KSer, probably Evan would be best.

Probably merc/phanty

[quote=raditzkid]So buffs last 60% of the time,so for example 300 seoncds would equal more like = 180 seconds if i did my crappy a*s math skills right? And waht do you mean if you use it last or whatever,are you saying you have to resteal it or something?[/quote]

Yeah, just like that.

I mean when you use it, it lasts 60% of the time, as in the duration is 60% of the time.

Sorry for asking,but may you give me a link or something,becuase I'm currently playing a Phantom,dont wanna regret it ,trying to get it to 120 fast so I can start on my Db to 120 for mask.[/quote]

Buffs you steal will only last 60% of the time they would last if used by the owner.

The kMS community is great, treat them with respect and they'l do the same. I quit gMS in the first place because of that disgusting community.

I wouldn't be surprised, for a while the hacking issue got so out of hand that for example I got hacked 5 times consecutively within 2 weeks on my demonslayer.

[quote=raditzkid]Well I have a couple if you don't mind.

1) Are Mechanics fun after revamp,I'm thinking of playing one if it is fun.
2) Do you get the card that adds slots to your characters for Mikhail,Luminous,Kaiser,etc?
3) How big was the KS wars when Kaiser/Luminous/Angelic Buster came out? (I'm train hardcore if it's huge to protect myself)
4) What would you say in majority of community,or in your own opinion is funner,Kaiser or Luminous?

Thank you very much for the answers! Anyways,I might plan on playing a Mechanic,so I'm wondering if Luminous or Kaiser gives character cards,and asking which one is more fun because my slots are fulled,and also if the KS wars are indeed big,to inform me I should train a lot so I can protect myself,and I would just like to know which is more fun so I don't waste a slot.[/quote]

1)I really do think it's fun, they're unique and really all around good characters
2)We get character slots like every second hot time lol
3)New characters alwaaaaaaaaaaays bring KS wars. 5 people per map and stuff
4)My own opinion Kaiser, they're great at bossing and they don't need much funding. Luminous seems like MUCH more of a grinding class.

[quote=rabbithole]How much is the shielding ward for Superior items like level 150 gear? Has Nexon said anything about making future gear Superior now?

Did the avoid rates for DB's get lowered? Or what changed in a brief summary, exactly?

Is the Timesplitter Katara (level 140 Empress katara) even count towards set effect? The Raven katara one doesn't.

Can the level 150 gear be potentialed? I noticed the weapon had 0 slots.

Sorry for the numerous questions. That's all I was itching to know. Thanks [/quote]

it's fine

1) The shielding wards used in the video with Limgoon scrolling his Superior gear is 7.9k($7.9). Nexon has not said anything about additional Superior gear last I checked

2) No, I know a DB that never gets hit ever. DR is his only killer.

3) The Katara does not count towards the set effect according to my DB friends.

4) I'm honestly not sure about any of the 150 gear, it's super rare right now. The weapon cannot be potentialed, probably because it's only for kaiser and has 250 att.

I'm not ordering them because I'm not sure.

1)Merc
1)Phanty
1)Kaiser (after hyper skills) will have 3 skills that can ignore DR and other monster buff ups, so he'd be pretty damn good at empress.

I'd say Evans are pretty damn overpowered, they don't have the potential of a merc but they are INSANE with like no funding.

Well Hyper Skills are a pretty considerable buff, so I'd get a phantom to 200 in order to take advantage of all of those. Otherwise, considering GMS hasn't even received the NERF, the hyper skill buff is quite a ways away. I wouldn't hold your breath on Phantom right now.

Jeez, what a painful question.

Angelic Burster : 50% damage for 10 seconds 90 second cooldown

Kaiser : 10% HP

Mikhail : Stance for some seconds and then some cooldown.

Phantom : 10% crit

Demon Slayer : 10% boss

Merc : Tele to hometown + 10% exp

Cannon Shooter : 15+ all stats

The community in KMS is overall a kind one, treat others with respect and more often than not you'l receive the same treatment.

You will never see a duped item on the market.

If you have an insane amount (I meant like best items in the game), an Angelic Burster as they can break cap. However since they're so slow it'd probably be between Merc and Phantom.
