Watchman94 - Gear showcase (November, 2018)

[@bonbibonkerz]

Ahoy! I really appreciate you explaining all of your gears. Really put into perspective by adding little stories on how you got them and all. I havent played Cabal in months now because busy with work, yet just by watching players like you fills the void. Thank you again, mr Watchman, hope someday I can be pro players like you and the others!

[@1minuteCABALguides]

Ahoy! Thanks :) I'm glad to hear that!

[@wanpanman5492]

I just started playing cabal and i am beginning to realize that the game is complicated but i think thats what makes it fun

[@1minuteCABALguides]

Ahoy! A little announcement: It's been over a year since I switched from wizard to archer. And it turns out, I miss those good old times! Nothing wrong with FA if you want to play it, so don't get me wrong - it's only personal preference :) So I've switched back to wizard, and love it!

[@marctys389]

[@Dexzel5]

well I had the same issue this year, I switched back to GL from FA, I hope you doesnt lose motivation to keep playing and making videos, you are a great inspiration to free to play users, best of luck. (sorry for bad english)

[@jeffreygenedominguez3056]

finally back to wizard greetings from cabal ph :)

[@sentius96]

What class would you suggest as first for a new player? I got a FA to 145 but i have difficulties trying to level or clear dungeons

[@1minuteCABALguides]

@@sentius96 FS, WA, GL and BL usually don't have problems surviving for a while, but stick to the one that you'd like to develop in the end, the one you enjoy the most! Every class becomes strong later on.

[@kumi2564]

Cabal Ph player here. I started to play cabal and meet newbies on the way, they are good company and not long, became friends. There has been a problem with our transmission poles so thats why when I logged in 1 week later.. They are already 150+. To catch up with them I bought 1b from a seller through transaction, bought a good enough set and quest hard(sleepness nights) just to catch up with them. Being a soloist might get you 100% of your own loots.. But being with other players you enjoy company with... the stress of getting strong will be forgotten.

Hi how do you get the combined level do you need 7 character with 200 level?? So if thats the case all the character will get the title?? Or just the main or you chooice im a little bit confuse please enlighten us thnx and thanks for your videos

[@1minuteCABALguides]

You can have 6 characters in your account by default, but there's some cash shop item for a few vouchers that can expand your character slots up to 8. That way you won't need all of them at lvl 200, except if you're going for the ultimate, combined lvl 1600 title. Overlord levels don't count! And yes, it's in the shared titles section so every character of that server has them unlocked.

[@ronove2597]

Hello, please can you explain me, what is the maximum level of critical rate on "Astral Bow "? Thanks, sorry for my english (im italian and my eng is bad) and Ahoy!!!

[@1minuteCABALguides]

Ahoy! As far as I know it's 14% from palladium. Probably 15% for demonite but I guess you won't be using that for another 3-4 years :)

[@Usman5up]

Hey whats your method to get merit mastery up quickly do you use the orders?

[@1minuteCABALguides]

I usually just join the MC wars (the short ones with gold coins) and skip TGs entirely. Just farm 600 points then help your nation win or relog. Alternatively, join the last 5-10 mins of war to get your desired score before it ends. Those order thingies are a huge waste of money unless you get them for free from events.

[@wojxiek]

Ahoy! Can you explain to me why most of the people run with sigmetal/redosmium items? I very rarely see people with full forcium set. Why is that?

[@1minuteCABALguides]

Ahoy! The simple reason is that Mithril, Archridium and Palladium are highest grade - that means you will need highest grade upgrade cores, force cores, option scrolls, and above all, slot extenders for each part. A SEH is around 800kk in EU, whereas a SEHH is something like 15-20b alz, which is already over 20 times more money for 1 item.

[@YoMrBanana]

Ahoy! Always loved your videos. Can you give a short backstory on how you got the alz to buy your gear? I'm relatively new in the game and want to stay being a "free gamer". I noticed that it's really hard to earn even just 1 billion by farming dungeons. Were there any special/rare loots you got way back then that enabled you to buy equipment? Or maybe events that earned you billions? If so, what were those events?

[@1minuteCABALguides]

Ahoy! I started off as a normal player and kept running dungeons with friends for fun, but not really achieving anything for a long time. Well, it was around 5 years ago, that the Arcane Golem of Rage boss was a daily boss fight "event". Every day it would spawn, it had a scenario somewhat similar to TG/MC nowadays: a nation had to fight to occupy points and the one controlling more bases at the end of the turn got to attack the boss for awesome loot. It was there that I found a Slot Extender Highest solo, and that was enough to buy me an average set (7b alz at that time). When I say average, I mean 2 items that were +15 :D It was still not enough to compare to top players or cashers, but it allowed me to join in dungeons like AoS2. FT2 was still too hard even in party. From then on, it made farming a lot easier, but still I made most of my set farming upgrade cores and the occasional 7amp items that used to be actually worth something at those times (we used to share 7amp 1 slot items in a full party, not extract them like now). So actually that was only enough to get me to start playing seriously. It was around that time that the previous GM of the guild BritishAssassins quitted the game and made me the new GM, I also started the KZbin channel shortly after, and those things kept me checking back on the game with shorter breaks. That SEHH was basically the only "big drop" I've ever had. Other than that it was just farming event items and having fun with buddies that over time awarded me/us with alz. I intended to invest any donation I receive on PayPal for maintaining this channel into keeping my computer up to date (videos take awful long to create with old hardware), and maybe support the game by buying premium but so far that's still 0, so I can still say I've never spent real money on this game. Also I'd like to add that back in those days, farming upgrade cores really could make up for a good set in less than a year's time, and the game wasn't full of alz seller websites and their bots, so alz really had a great value and 1b was like...money I could barely even dream of. Now you won't buy a starter item for that value. Nowadays it's just chaos/divine stone farming, and the occasional collect&exchange event with selling event items that are my main sources of income. That's the long and short of it. Summary: 1 SEHH, nothing else worth mentioning.

[@YoMrBanana]

@@1minuteCABALguides Thanks for sharing your story. I guess you could say that there had been a huge inflation in the game's economy ever since people started selling alz online and to achieve something great nowadays (especially for beginners like me) requires a fat wallet or a really really strong commitment to the game and a huge huge chunk of your time. Congratulations on getting your character that far! It really shows how awesome Cabal can be even without spending real money on it.

[@1minuteCABALguides]

Unfortunately, (at least the EU version) it's no longer a new player friendly game. All the new content, and most of the events that we get are aimed at keeping top tier players and old players in the game, and with the lack of new players, new/medium tier players can't do anything because there's nobody to buy the drops they find in dungeons, etc... So if I were to start nowadays, it would be easy to get to lvl 200 but it would be with 0 gear and I'd probably quit the game because of boredom in a matter of weeks.

[@michaeledreanpascua4337]

How did you get a lot of alz for these items without using real money on the game?

[@1minuteCABALguides]

I played for about 5 years before that. + in the old times it was much easier to farm alz.

[@sentius96]

How do you get access to the EU server? I am playing on Atlas US right now, both steam and google direct me toward the US global, i cant find the EU servers

[@1minuteCABALguides]

The official website of Cabal EU is cabaleu.playthisgame.com/en (not the EU in the link - it might redirect you to some advertisement about the latest update, and in that case enter the link again, because if you click the "continue to website" button it will redirect you to the NA version). If you're located outside EU you might encounter problems with IP restrictions though.

[@sentius96]

@@1minuteCABALguides thank you so much man, I will try as soon as I get home, I live in UK so I hope I can get back to EU and retrieve my old account

[@1minuteCABALguides]

If the account you're talking about is more than 3-4 years old, then it won't be possible. Cabal EU had been managed by gamemasters .com, but it was taken over by ESTsoft after a while and they were transferring all data by request of the account's owner to the new server for 2 entire years. But after that probably threw the old server in the garbage. But it still won't hurt to send a ticket to support if that's the case.

[@xchanlol]

Do you think sword amp/magic amp is overrated in suit and gloves? For example, would you choose 7mcr/10amp suit over 34amp suit? Same goes for gloves

[@1minuteCABALguides]

I think they are overrated, yes, but not THAT overrated :D In my opinion the ideal ratio is 3% mcr in 1st slot, rest full amp and amp craft too. The 2nd and 3rd slots get 1-1% penalty so you'd end up losing too much damage for two third of the amount of max rate as in 1st slot. But I did see some korean/chinese players who had 7% mcr in gloves, suit, and master's craft gave them another 2% in each, and that way they could reach something like 90% critical rate. That would be pretty OP if you can afford extreme 4+ weapons, bike and full amp in every other part.

[@lazybeastz182]

i have a question i was using a suit with 19amp 3mcr and i just bought suit 37amp is this barely an upgrade in ur opinion? I think im regretting buying the new suit

[@1minuteCABALguides]

In my opinion that may not have been a good decision. Honestly, I think suit/gloves without max rate belong to the trash bin. Unless of course you have 75-80% mcr without them (but that takes a thousand selective untraining kits for your pet).

[@StreidominaTing]

Hey, since when are you playing Cabal and how does your daily routine look like(also playtime)? It would be interesting to know since I am thinking of either committing to the time sink or staying away from it :D

[@1minuteCABALguides]

Ahoy! I started playing actively around 4 years ago, shortly before I created this YT channel. It used to be my past time activity when I had nothing to do after high school on weekdays and so. Playing with buddies, farming dungeons, etc... Back in those days I used to play like 5-6 hours easily :D good times Now, it's mostly just logging in to do the 4 daily elite DX, daily quests, run 5 dungeons with friends/guildmates, and if there's an event farm it. Otherwise I don't have enough time to play much nowadays. Just remember, if you DO decide to "commit to the time sink", don't try to compete with cashers, top players or those who had been playing for years before you. It's still a fun game to spend some time with buddies, but you won't get too far if you don't spend either real money, or a few hours every day for months/years.

[@StreidominaTing]

@@1minuteCABALguides Ahoy! Thanks for the reply :) Well for me its mostly about soloing some dungeons, gearing to be more efficient, hoping for good drops obviously and eventually I want to get into Party Dungeons at some point. Not aiming to be better than others, just gearing the class as high as I can manage until I throw myself out of window before playing further :D

[@StreidominaTing]

@@1minuteCABALguides One last question, do you enjoy FA more than WI? I am playing BL at the moment, I really like BL altogether but the lack of AoE sometimes makes runs "annoying". Seeing FA has self-heal I guess it can solo stuff easier? At least surviving.

[@1minuteCABALguides]

Well, no. I miss my old wizard, and I'd like to switch back to it the moment I find buyers for my FA items. But otherwise FA is fun too. However, that is for you to decide, we probably have different tastes :D As for surviving, BL has much better chances at that - BM2 HP steal is almost twice as fast as it is for FA, and healing often can't make up for that difference. Also, BL's intuition makes you invincible, whereas FA's quick move often lets you down.

[@StreidominaTing]

@@1minuteCABALguides Oh, well it's an experience you made, so now at least you know that you enjoy WI more :) I have to say that BL & WI are my favourite classes. I am levelling all classes so I can get my combined level achievement, let's see for which class I will commit... FG so far is also pretty nice, but surviving seems difficult. So I am stuck between BL, WI & FG :D Thanks for the replies so far :)

[@lazybeastz182]

just curious how much wexp u get per war? i get 300 and its taking way too long to max dat merit son

[@1minuteCABALguides]

I'm not sure, but sometimes we get some 300% or more wexp bonus in a server boost, and then you can farm like 1.2-1.5k wexp per war. I did so on occasions like that, just participating a few every day during boosts and now I've got more than enough wexp for merit. Then again, I haven't used any for honor points since reaching hr 20, and that was a long, long time ago.

Well based on the budget of a player, 20cd7amp < 40+cd < 40+cd/7rate < 30+cd 7rate 8amp < and the best is full CD craft, 7 rate in slot and 16 amp in slots. But the latter only works effectively if your weapons are at least extreme 3 so you get enough critical damage from extreme and other sources.

[@limcheexuan2758]

Hi Watchman, I'm new in Cabal. From the video, I saw your character auto attack the next mob after 1 die. May I know is it something to do with the game setting? Would appreciate your advise.

[@1minuteCABALguides]

Ahoy! Yes, in the options there's... well, an option, to enable "auto attack". That means if you attack something, your character will keep using the skills on your skill bar in sequence as long as you have a living target in range. The default hotkey to toggle it is "shift+a". However, that won't change your target! I did that manually. Among the key bindings there's an entry called "enemy auto target". If you press that key the nearest target will be selected. I changed that to mouse scroll down, so I can just scroll down once every once in a while and it will keep attacking. Pretty useful for when you're browsing the internet on the other side of your screen :)

[@1minuteCABALguides]

I don't do live streams, unfortunately I don't have the hardware and internet connection for that. As for surviving, make sure you're using vampiric earrings and have enough HP steal % from any source that lets you fill your limit even with non-critical hits. BM2 has pretty fast attacks so it can help you leech hp real fast. Use heal when things get out of hand. It's strange though, I had no problems farming ADX without even using HP pots, just auto attacking with full terragrace set.

If it's a drop rate bonus, farm ECA for chaos fragments and sell them a few weeks/months later when cores are high in price again. If there's some collect&exchange event, don't open the event items just sell them to other players for easy money! Otherwise, just keep farming and hope for the best :D there isn't really any way around that. Or if you're talking about new players as in under lvl 130, make sure you do your quests, and maybe even make a new character until lvl 100 to do quests and keep the alz reward.

Do I need to buy Alz by using real currency? and is it worth to buy premium? and any premium drop rate?

[@1minuteCABALguides]

No, you don't "need to". Nobody is forcing you to do that, and you can do just fine without paying real money for this game. I for one haven't paid a penny and have gotten quite far. Premium helps a lot with your leveling progress, and if you're a farmer of ECA and the likes of it, the drop rate bonus will be your best friend. But otherwise, the GPS war can make you arrive at dungeon entrances faster. So all in all it's pretty useful.

[@1minuteCABALguides]

Things used to be very different a while ago. When I started playing actively, some 5 years ago, you could farm dungeons and make a living just out of selling upgrade cores. Force cores used to be kinda worthless but everyone bought upgrade cores for 3-4 times more than they do now. And all the materials from extracting items too. Not to mention being able to sell chaos cores for more than 2kk each (but of course back then even clearing the first 3 waves of ECA was a challenge). If I were to start over from 0 now, I'd probably quit before even getting to lv 180.
