What was... Sewers like... Back in the day?

[Noodleleg]

Hay is what horses eat! And high is to describe something's elevation? How'd they become greetings? Kay, sorry for wasting 5 seconds of your life ! I'm wondering... So, Noobleleg was an incredible noob. He joined around mid-way to Nuri's expansion. I didn't (legitimately... yes, rushed by people -_-) play until MF times. Well, unless carrying a melodic with mimicry armor or fortified set sounds good to you -_-... So, yeah... I never really had the chance to play Sewers end game! Can somebody please tell me what it was like ? Maybe... What classes were dominant, how many setups did people have, if it was luck or skill oriented, hax dodges occurring a lot, etc. Please enlighten me, good sirs and dames!

Many thanks,
Noobleleg (yes )

Sewers was da bomb...

Custom Ench Set FTW!

I met Weagle, Eni, and Whirlz during Sewers. <3

Recipe custom bow were selling 1.111.111 gold,
items were hardly dropping,
GCD (global cooldown) wasn't there yet, so PvP fights were during 1 second,
There was no vanity bonus, so only VERY skilled players were pros,
My 500 runs in gold fever didn't give me my mega mage robe
The queen and the kind in bandit was hard to kill, and it was bugged, we could take them 1 by 1 ,
It is the first cap where we could be crafting items, was really exciting,
it lasted around 5-6-7 months if I remember well

To put it in a nutshell, sewers were good, but smelly xD

The sewers was great, I was a Pally. This was the campaign when I was "cosmicxghost" and was beginning to be known All of the good oldies from this time.

[Bless]

I was a noob L18 sumthin I didnt know what lvl cap was bahahahahahahahaaa

[Deadbite]

I was a 53 bagman bird and there was no gcd life was good!!

[angeldawn]

Sewers was great and it seemed like everyone wanted to be 1/2 dex.

I was such a noob!!!! Took forever to farm my set!! I think I had already hit 56 before I had it complete. I never did go for enchanted back then cuz of the lack of mana regen. It was such a bummer when I crafted my wand and it broke my set bonus and I had to farm another wand >.<

This is also where I first met some awesome bears and realized how much better the game is when playing with good players (instead of just friends) I still love to go to the sewers and do some epic pulls!!!

I had just started really getting into PvP.
Prior to gcd as a Dexbird (without a multi-touch device) you needed really fast fingers, effective combos and to know your range. I learned most from looking at the playstyle of others. Skimmey, Thelonearcher, Xrax, Hmmhmm as well as Kanital and Dolloway were birds that could dominate whole games.
PvP was fast paced. It is not true that 1vs1s didn't exist, in fact, while a game was filling up most people would do some "go" battles. But in most cases FFA would be announced AND PLAYED by everyone as soon as it was full. And I'm a hundred percent sure that is the fastest and only way to really get great at PvP.
On some devices it was possible to "multi-touch", so you could hit a whole row of skills in a split second. That was especially useful for Dexbirds and also bears could combo pretty fast if that beckon would hit (the smashed combo didn't exist btw), however it was frowned upon by many.

Then the global cooldown arrived. In the beginning it seemed to last for about ten seconds (I think it was 1 and got reduced to 1/2 or something... not sure). Many oldies ragequit over this. Some names to remember are Fabiokmd, Tssrosalka, Skimmey, Thoughie...and a bunch of other pros. More oldies went inactive and Lone was banned. More spotlight fell on players like Kelly, Kanital, Dolloway, Imperialelf, Amyxrose, Alwaysdtf and others.
It took the PvP community a while to adapt to the change but after all gcd made PvP more balanced IMO, only bears were kind of left out.

One of the greatest things about Sewer PvP was the gear. Wandmages, Staffmages, Strbears, Dexchantresses, Warbirds, Pallies, Dexbears and Dexbirds were all viable builds which had strenghts and weaknesses. Except for Royal/Fury-Bears there was no class with more then 42 dodge (buffed) and I would say that a lot more skill, strategy and class knowledge was required to win a battle. Also non-pink sets stood a decent chance such as the infamous Drainers gear.(however, most other sets had very low regen even if the other stats were good).
Also, until very late Sewers there were higher stat requirements on gear, however it was not base stat. So most people would use booster sets to get their stats up. For example as a warbird I had as much str as I needed to a) put on some lvl19 str pinks adding 7 str each b) put on lvl50 str gear adding 12 str c) put on the fortified set with the minimal str required. Dual builds (using gear of two different types) did therefor not exist.
On a side note: RIP that guy who statted the endgame gear until Sewer/Nuris. we truely miss you...

Fun times.

Oh, and I also really miss my double blast!

[Mage till the end]

Good times indeed.

I found the enchanted staff Mage to be quite fun. Nuking and all. Of course you would be squisher than a mango but hey. I have to say the op people were the custom archers and the fury Pallys.
