Chapter 6 Overall Overview of Upgrading

Ding Sa, who was busy with leveling, naturally couldn't see this post, and the players in the chat channel couldn't match Yun Xiaohan in the video with Ding Sa's vest in the channel.

Some friends and studios who really know Ding Sa’s game id know that Ding Sa is leveling up. For them, maintaining this information advantage is likely to be helpful to their game journey, so naturally they will not take the initiative to publicize it. I won't bother Ding Sa's leveling.

On the contrary, several studios also increased their confidence in Ding Sa, and decided to increase their support for Ding Sa when he needed it.

In fact, in the current situation, Ding Sa already has certain advantages.

Its advantage comes from being only slightly ahead of the front line, as well as equipment updates.

Through the order of killing pigs first and then doing errand tasks, and decisively changing lanes to gain experience leadership, even if it is only 20% ahead of the experience bar, the chaser will spend 5 or 6 times the time to catch up.

Not to mention the equipment update, Ding Sa is actually not rich, but he is far from having a clear understanding of the timing and purpose of spending money, which is far from the rich players.

More importantly, local rich players do not have the channels that Ding Sa has, and it is impossible to make preparations in advance. There are many local rich players, but at this point in time, even if they have money, they cannot buy virtual currency.

Under normal circumstances, during the unpredictable opening time, professional players and studios cannot sacrifice their own development to contribute to the rich. Supporting Ding Sa can get feedback on development, and selling to local tyrants can only make money Fast money.

Not to mention that many local tyrants don't pay much attention to leveling up. They care more about cool equipment and dazzling pets. At this stage, they don't have much desire to spend money, and naturally they can't talk about selling at high prices.

The most important thing is that this time is too early, the game server (equivalent to the test server of the regular game) is less than half an hour, and there is no order to sell coins on any trading network, even if someone wants to make a quick buck, There is too little in stock.

In other words, at this point in time, almost no one can have the same level of equipment as Ding Sa,

In fact, the level is raised to level 2; warrior, knight occupation; change more than 3 pieces of armor, at least one of which is the upper body armor with the highest defense; learn shield master and equip shield.Without any of these four conditions, it is impossible to break through the blockade of the long-horned deer alone.

When Ding Sa's experience bar reached 2% experience at level 40, finally a second player was promoted to level 2. This player named Nikawa Neiku was a mage.

In fact, if there is a list of level experience, you can see that, except for the number one Yun Xiaohan, all the top ones on the list are remote occupations.Mage has a higher attack but needs to recover mana. Although archer has low attack, the recovery of stamina is a little faster than the recovery of mana. However, since it is basically waiting for monsters to refresh, mana and stamina are basically useless. Lost, so mages still generally have to lead a little bit.

As for priests, although they can also take advantage of long-range attacks, their attacks are lower than those of archers, so they are naturally not as good as the two long-range professions mentioned above.

Then there are warriors and knights. In the case of not having too many skills in the early stage, thieves are still at a disadvantage, and can only be on the same level as naval occupations.

As for merchants who are half-life occupations, their experience acquisition mode is different from other occupations. There will be more professional tasks related to merchants, and you can also learn related collection skills to collect monster corpses that do not belong to you (but you have to wait for the ownership It can only be collected after the player picks it up).

Of course, it is impossible for merchants to upgrade completely by doing tasks, and they also need to fight monsters. The overall ranking of their experience acquisition is roughly at the same level as that of priests.

After Enzykawa Neiku was promoted to level 2, he sold some materials dropped by wolves and collected 2 coppers to learn the second skill - Flame Arrow.

Flame Arrow is the skill with the highest single-target damage among the first-level skills of mages. It has a longer range, which is half as much as that of energy balls. It also has a high probability of being flammable. When it is attacked by a fire-type spell again Will increase damage by 1%.The only flaw is that as a non-directional skill, the player needs to aim and shoot through the character's crosshair.

After learning the skills, Enzykawa Neiku can be said to be penniless, so the equipment naturally has no money to change.

Then he also went to the Antler Deer area closest to the wolf area to try, and quickly found that it was not easy to fight. The long-horn deer's charge skills did too much damage to the long-range professional output of the standing pile, which was equivalent to completely canceling the mage's long-range initiation.

Breaking through the herd of deer to fight the porcupine was an impossible task, so he had to find the third level 3 monster in the other direction—the long-legged rabbit, and the long-legged rabbit soon made Nishikawa Neiku feel extremely melancholy.

The reason for the melancholy is very simple. The long-legged rabbit is small in size and quick in response. It quickly approaches the opponent by jumping left and right. Use it.

Nishikawa Neiku already regretted that he learned the second skill without testing the information of the monster first, but he quickly calmed down. He had already decided to take the fire escape route, even if he tried it beforehand. Ninety-nine out of ten monsters will choose to learn the flame arrow even if they don't know the specific details of the flame arrow's casting, so regretting is meaningless.

In the case of using the farthest range position, Nishikawa Neiku can probably shoot 3-4 flaming arrows before the long-legged rabbit comes into close contact, except for the first flaming arrow because the long-legged rabbit has not yet entered the combat state and is only in a slow state. It is easier to hit the outside when it is moving or simply not moving. The next 2-3 rounds need to hit at least one round, otherwise Nishikawa Neiku must be the one that hangs first.

But when the long-legged rabbit moves at high speed, it can only rely on prediction and experience to improve the hit rate. Even so, whether it is hit or not is still very dependent on luck, because no one knows whether the long-legged rabbit will suddenly adjust its jumping direction.Only after being close can the hit of the flame arrow be guaranteed.

In this case, Nishikawa Neiku has only one countermeasure. If you can get caught by the second flaming arrow before you get close, you can hit it. It's all worth it, it's better than hanging up and running corpses.

The low probability of getting out of 3 battles before getting caught once makes the leveling efficiency extremely low, but even so, it is still much more efficient than crowding together a can of human flesh.

With the passage of time, the number of players promoted to level 2 gradually increased. Compared with the long-horned deer, which is almost difficult to kill by a long-range profession, the long-legged rabbit has become the first choice.

With the increase in the number of monsters, robbing monsters becomes unavoidable again, and the difficulty of killing monsters also decreases.At this time, Ding Sa, who was devoted to beating porcupines, finally rose to level 3.The gap between him and No.2 widened again, reaching as much as 70%.

After killing the porcupine alone for so long, Ding SA still failed to get any equipment or special item drops, which made people sigh for the low drop rate in "Choice".

However, a kind of bristle bristle material that the porcupine will inevitably drop. The blacksmith shop has a related infinite loop acquisition task of 5 groups. Although the experience rewarded by the task is very little, the monetary reward is quite a lot. Each group can be exchanged for 50 iron currency.

Ding Sa played 8 sets of bristles, and gained a total of 3% experience of level 5 and 4 copper game currency.

In addition, I have to mention that the upgrade experience from level 3 to level 4 has doubled compared with level 2 to level 3.

After spending 3 coppers, Ding Sa learned the third professional skill: first-order power attribute growth.This is a passive attribute growth skill. After learning this skill, the strength attribute will get an additional boost (including the level that has been raised) after each upgrade. This skill is equivalent to a selection bias for adding attribute points in other games.

Ding Sa actually has another choice when learning skills, which is to learn the armor-piercing slash that can cause certain damage and reduce the physical defense of the attacked target by 10 points within 50 seconds.

The effect of this skill is extremely prominent in the early stage of the game. You must know that Ding Sa's current total defense is only 68 points, and the physical defense is almost reduced by about 80% under one skill.With the upgrade of skills, this defense reduction data can also be improved.

But after some consideration, Ding Sa still gave up this skill.

On the one hand, this skill does not reduce defense by percentage, even if it is upgraded again, there is a limit, and it will be weaker in the later stage.The skill CD is also relatively long, with a duration of 10 seconds, and the skill CD time takes 20 seconds, which cannot be seamlessly connected.

On the other hand, for the current Ding Sa, the porcupines killed now have low defense, and the defense breaking effect cannot be fully exerted.Increasing the strength attribute can directly increase the damage, and can also play special effects through the strength check, which is undoubtedly a more suitable choice.
