What do people want to see in an inspiration video?

I want to make one but watching other people's videos got be thinking about this.

So I'm asking you, the Maple public, what do you expect to see in an inspiration video?

Is it damage, how fun the class is, etc?

[quote=jspoe]To me, there are 2 types of inspirational videos.
One is where a person starts as a noob and gets all highleveled and there are lots of little clips showing how he almost quit but pulled through and his friends and training and how fun the char was.
The other is where a person is just showing off all the skills and some really close calls in which the guy almost dies but like survives thanks to a specialty from the class.

P.S. Do I look like I am qualified to join the Black Wings?[/quote]

Those are good ideas.
And to your other question, you look like a salesman with that hat. Sure I guess.

A inspiration video imo is a show-off video.. But not in showing dmg off but showing off ur flashy skills...[/quote]

To me, a inspiration video is much more than that. It helps people show what the class is made of and what it can provide to make the game more fun.

In no particular order.

Damage
Control
Multiple popular training locations for your level
Boss kill(s) (usually pap/pianus or something similar)
DAMAGE RANGE AND EQUIPS! (a noob doesn't want to see a video of some sucky guy and think his equips are godly and vice-versa, more on this below below)
Not too long
Not seeing smega's in the corner
Not seeing chat
You not talking in chat
You and your buffs, not 100 other people buffing you, and not using apples/etc (warrior elixirs are fair enough)
Not too much NX, its an inspiration video, not a fashion show

Lets say you do a 5 minute video on your WH.

00:00 - 00:20 ~ Intro (world + IGN + class)
00:20 - 00:40 ~ Damage range + BoF + best equips (include weapon even if it sucks) + your main skill levels
00:40 - 01:40 ~ 1 minute training in your typical training spot (make sure no smegas appear/you aren't using chat/you have good control)
01:40 - 02:00 ~ EXP you gained in the minute, how much that is hourly (to give people an idea on training speeds)(no EXP buffs)
02:00 - 03:00 ~ Full boss kill/last minute of boss (20 seconds of first pap form + 20 seconds of second pap form)(try and video several kills and use one with good drops)
03:00 - 04:00 ~ Control show in major training areas while leveling (using skills for that level range, even if you do more damage than then)
04:00 - 04:40 ~ Include how long it took you to get to your level/etc.
04:40 - 05:00 ~ Credits, Nexon, video recording software, you, anyone who helped, etc

Try and put some decent music on, something that fits the mood/pace, not just your favourite song, try not to use something too common though. =3

[quote=DivineDimish]Its about bout you doing f2 all the time and doing some nice moves i really wante a 120+ WIld Hunter Inspirational Video[/quote]

I'm thinking of making a Resistance Inspiration Video as soon as I get my Mech to 120.

I just need examples of what people expect or it could be a disappointment to me.
