After signing a standard consultant contract, Kakulucia couldn't wait to ask, "Sir, there are many things I don't understand about the forgotten continent. ”

Yang Hai thought to himself that he was really an anxious boss, but such a character was also quite cute, and said, "Please speak." ”

"I have some questions about career balance." As soon as Cakulucia spoke, he was very professional, worthy of being a player who could get the praise of Azus: "I think the mage profession is weak among the legal professions, but people always say that there is no strongest class, only the strongest player, what is the reason for this?" ”

This question is very sharp, because Yang Hai has only recently figured out the balance of careers. Acting as a consultant to such a boss is obviously a very challenging job. The first week was a probationary period, and Yang Hai had the name of the forgotten number one master in the mainland on his head, and it would be a shame if he would be despised by his boss as a consultant. Yang Hai pondered for a moment and replied: "First of all, there is no strongest class, only the strongest player, this sentence is simply nonsense. Because there are different professions, if the strength of each profession is exactly the same, then what is it about hidden professions and special professions that everyone flocks to? ”

Kakuluchia listened thoughtfully.

"As far as the mage is concerned, the mage is the most orthodox spellcaster, orthodoxy means omnipotence, and the mage is superior to the warlock, the sacrifice and the druid in the selectivity and comprehensiveness of the spell; At the trade, the other three classes will have more distinctive characteristics of their spells, and some other abilities will be attached, such as the druid's animal companion, the warlock's dagger mastery, and so on. Yang Hai considered the words: "This is the embodiment of balance, what players have to do is not to compete, to question the system why their own profession is so weak in some way, but to play to their strengths and avoid weaknesses." For example, a mage, you have to fight in the jungle against a druid who is on a par with your own strength, and you play very aggressively. Isn't that self-inflicted? The ability to judge the situation is very important, only correctly determine when to fight the enemy in a wave, or even complete the kill; When should you be conservative, wait for the enemy to take the initiative to attack, and then counterattack; When should you be decisive and run away. These are things that require experience to judge. Balance is a very vague term. In other words, there is no such thing as a perfect balance, and players are required to stand still and use spells against each other. And then both sides have to lose blood at the same rate and then die at the same time, is this called perfect balance? This is not true. ”

"So what is the decisive factor for PK on both sides?" Kakulucia smiled self-deprecatingly: "Anyway, my equipment is good enough, but I still can't score high in the arena, I'm really distressed." ”

"PK on both sides, there are many factors for this." Yang Hai thought for a moment and said, "For example, for a spellcaster. The factor that determines his ability, in addition to his own strength, is also his attributes. These attributes include, Spell Strength, Spell Precision, Spell Instant, Spell Silence, Spell Crit, Spell Priority, Spell Penetration, Spell Lifesteal, Cooldown Reduction, Spell Resistance, Spell Recognition, etc. When we talk about balance, in fact, in a certain sense, it means that there is no pure restraint relationship - for example, if a mage fights a warlock, you can't say that the mage restrains the warlock, and you can't say that the warlock restrains the mage, both sides have a chance of winning. This is the embodiment of balance. If you exclude the strength factor. Then the choice of attributes is the top priority. A person who stacks his spell resistance very high, then he can easily face enemies with high mana damage, but what, if his enemies have good spell penetration. Then he will be very difficult to fight. When you're desperate with someone, spell flash can give you a head start, but in a war of attrition, spell flash is nowhere near as powerful as spell silence. Because silent spells can seriously interfere with the opponent's judgment and then gain an advantage in attrition. When encountering an opponent who is slowly grinding blood. A high spell lifesteal will make your enemies want to cry without tears, and it will be almost useless when it comes to your undead opponents...... Each attribute has its own strengths and weaknesses, you must know that the opponents in the arena are ever-changing, some people fight extremely obscenely, constantly consuming to create killing opportunities, and some people will be very unrestrained, must come up and fight hard, just like making a phone call, either you hang up first or I hang up first. Some people are equipped with strong spells and don't want the slightest spell penetration, while others choose high spell lifesteal and cooldown reduction, trying to use small skills to constantly harass and collapse the other side. The choice depends on the situation. In the arena you will meet all kinds of players, and before the opening you don't know who you will meet, in the arena if you want to score, the best way is to pile up all the attributes, meet the same style as you opponents, just fight the arts, meet those perverted piles of single attribute opponents, you must use his attribute defects, drag the situation into a situation that is unfavorable to him. For example, if you encounter a spell on the opposite side with a particularly high blood suck, then you fight with him, if you don't die, I die, usually he will die, because many of his attributes are wasted, and it is impossible to fight you; When you encounter the opposite spell penetration, spell crit and the strength is particularly high, you will be obscene, avoid him, go around the pillar, consume little by little, consume the advantage and then fight, then you will definitely win. ”

"I've always been killed by the stealth profession." Kakulucia said bitterly, "Thieves, drow warriors, Vault Dwellers, these are too restrained for me. What should I do? ”

"I don't recommend you watch videos of mages fighting thieves, you can't see anything at all, this is my own experience." Yang Hai said: "At the beginning, when I fought in the Middle Ages, I used the Kingdom of Heria to always defeat the Wolf Clan, so I went to watch the videos of the masters to see how they used the Kingdom of Heria to beat their rivals. But the effect is not obvious. In fact, at this time, you should do the opposite and see how the Wolf Clan fought the Kingdom of Heria. You know enough about yourself, you don't need to know any better, what you need to know is your opponent. Believe me, don't look at the video from the master's point of view, go and see what your opponent is thinking, how he judges your intentions, what kind of thinking he thinks when he fights you, and then you will figure out some things that you usually can't figure out, such as what you can't avoid at that moment. For example, when the thief is trying to trick you into skill, and when the thief is going to come up and kill you. As for the basic theory, too many people on the forum have analyzed it, and it is all in place, so I should not need to analyze it. Let's be honest. I don't recommend you go to the arena. viva。 That's brutal enough, isn't it? He sometimes has to be abused by unfamiliar people in the arena, after all, after the arena reaches a high level, some players are too frustrated, and there are too many factors in PVP that determine a player's victory or defeat. For example, equipment crushing, for example, skill crushing, and anything outrageous can happen in places like high-segment arenas. Take me, if I go to play in the arena this season...... You know what I mean, right? ”

Kakuluchia couldn't help but laugh.

"A lot of the high-level players are very perverted." Yang Hai also smiled: "You don't know how many people Viva has beaten so much that they will never touch PVP again." The arena is a dangerous place, even if you can hit the high division...... And then you're going to keep fighting? After hitting the high segment. There are dozens of people coming and going, and you may have to run into viva several times a day, and they are still playing, you say? Playing in the arena is a good way to hone your skills, and you can also practice your skills to protect yourself in the wild, but there is really no need to run to the high level to suffer. ”

Kakuluchia laughed, "That makes sense, when you say that, I'm mentally balanced." Actually, I've only recently started playing PvP - by the way, sir, why don't you go to the arena? ”

"It's too time-consuming, and it's too stressful." Yang Hai shook his head. Xie Bumin said, "Forget it." ”

Kakulucia asked, "Sir, this time I came to the Dragon's Coast with a mission. ”

As he spoke, Kakulucia said, "This is a case with the Pirate King Bill? Walter about the task. The NPC asked me to find a necklace, which was made of silver. There's a round purple gem hanging on it, NPC just prompts me Bill? Walter knows where this necklace is, and nothing else is said, sir, can you give me a reference on how to complete this task? ”

Absolutely. Isn't that what the consultant eats? In order to make the boss feel that the weekly salary of 1 million is worth it, Yang Hai asked seriously: "Prince." Can you—"

"I'm older than you, just call me Brother Dong." Kakulucia said.

Yang Hai was very puzzled: "Can I ask, how did Dongdong, which is obviously a nickname for Chinese people, come from?" ”

Kakuluchia looked embarrassed: "They started to mess around, and they've been calling it that since then." ”

Yang Hai knew that there must be a wonderful story in it, but it may not be a pleasant experience for the parties involved, so he didn't ask more, and asked instead: "How did you get this task, and what does the mission NPC look like?" ”

"That's right, when I killed a wild benthic demon fish, I hit a piece of agarwood, because I don't know what this thing does, so I kept it in my backpack, and then in an alley on the shore of the sword, an old man with a wrinkled face and short silver hair stopped me, saying that I have the smell of the sea. He asked me to look for the necklace and said that if I could find it, I would be surprised. Kakuluchia shrugged, "And then the only hint he gave me was Pirate King Bill?" Walter knew the whereabouts of the necklace, and I wanted to ask in detail, but he was gone, and he told me later that if I could find it, he would come to me. ”

Yang Hai raised his eyebrows and asked, "Brother Dong, you dare to do his mission without communicating with the NPC?" ”

"But he said there was an unexpected surprise!" Kakuluchia's eyes widened: "It's not—"

"Isn't this a mess?" Yang Hai shook his head: "NPCs in the Forgotten Continent can trap players, what if that person is a believer in Maisk?" The followers of Musk take pleasure in lying and causing chaos, and he says that he wants to surprise you, maybe to get rid of you after you complete your mission. ”

Kakulucia's mouth opened wide.

"If you don't know an NPC in the Forgotten Continent, you can't take on their mission casually." Yang Hai said: "But this task is okay. ”

Kakulucia was pleasantly surprised: "You give me an analysis? It would be even better if the ideas could be explained clearly. ”

At least Cakuluchia himself didn't see any clues in it, and he was completely confused about the task, and the hints he gave were too few.

"This mission is like this—after you get a mission, you must find the entry point first, right?" Yang Hai explained: "Pirate King Bill? Walter is still a mystery to the player, and it must not be used as an entry point, and the player generally cannot learn about the news of the Pirate King; The other information points are agarwood, a necklace with purple gemstones, a printed old man on the Shore of Swords, and the breath of the sea. These are all tips for your tasks, and we analyze them one by one. ”

"First of all, agarwood, which is a precious medicinal material. It has a very powerful calming effect. Agarwood is usually used to make a potion to relieve abnormal states, and the effect of the medicine is very powerful, unless it is a very special state, it can be solved with a potion. Yang Hai said: "Agarwood grows in the depths of the sea, and there are often sunken ships on the sea. Coral grows on top of these woods. There is a type of coral called agarwood coral, which can protect the wood from the corrosion of the seawater, and after decades of precipitation, the wood under the agarwood coral is agarwood. So. We can be pretty sure that the benthic mothfish Boss is absolutely, absolutely impossible to drop agarwood under normal circumstances. There is only one answer to this, this piece of agarwood was brought by Boss from somewhere else. ”

Kakuluchia was dumbfounded by Yang Hai's analysis of so many things out of thin air.

"The necklace of the purple gem is still related to the Pirate King, so what this necklace is can basically be determined." Yang Hai said: "NPC said. Bill knew where the necklace was, but he didn't say that the necklace was in Bill's hand, and there was a big difference. Because at this stage, it is impossible for players to snatch anything from the hands of the Pirate King. In the history of the Forgotten Continent, there was a pirate king called Kitto, known as the Lord of the Seven Seas, who plundered countless treasures during his lifetime, but after his death, these riches were missing. Legend has it that the whereabouts of the treasure are inside Kitto's necklace. It was a necklace with powerful magical powers, and its name was the Sea Emperor Pendant, and just looking at it would make you feel greedy. The Devil's Pendant will force its owner to plunder the treasure until he dies of greed. The Neptune pendant is also described as a purple opal necklace, if it looks good. Your quest item is the Neptune's Fall. ”

Kakuluchia was already dumbfounded, and Yang Hai continued to analyze: "The silver-haired old man of the Sword Coast...... How do you say that? The Coast of Swords is a mixed bag, not to mention that your eyes will deceive you, and maybe it will be some NPC disguised to deceive you. Therefore, his image does not have much value; And the breath of the sea, there is no doubt about it. This piece of agarwood is an important clue to find Kito's treasure, you have to be careful, in my understanding, it is very likely that not only you are looking for the Pirate King, but the Pirate King is probably also looking for this piece of agarwood, because it is clear that Bill cannot be unimpressed by the treasure of Kito, I am very sure of that. The old man who gave you this task may have many intentions, maybe he is Bill's enemy, hoping that you can make some trouble for Bill, and it may even be Beard's subordinate, tricking you into going to Bill to die, and more likely a spoiler. It's hard to say. ”

Kakulucia was convinced at the moment, he felt that the level of top professional gamers was different, if it was him, where could he think of so many things? He hurriedly asked, "So where is the entry point of the mission?" ”

"There is no doubt that there are two entry points for the mission, one is the Falling Star Sea Pirate, and the other is Agarwood." Yang Hai said: "The Falling Star Sea Pirate and the Sambia Chamber of Commerce are opposing forces, doing one party's task will make the other party's reputation decline rapidly, you can choose the Falling Star Sea Pirate among these two forces, then you can find an opportunity to get close to the pirate king Bill, and then find out the news, and then improvise and act cheaply; Another entry point, agarwood, should be analyzed by an alchemy master to see what the mystery is. ”

Kakuluchia said excitedly, "There's a world-famous alchemist in Ivanaor—"

"Can't find Givent? Sayyan, because you don't know which powerful leaders Master Dao Givenan is good friends with, the agarwood in your hand must not be exposed in front of any NPCs on the Dragon Coast, there are many people here, and the news spreads quickly, and it won't take long for it to reach the ears of those who have a heart, and when the time comes, things are likely to become very troublesome. Yang Hai said solemnly.

"Then where should I go to find a credible alchemist?"

Yang Hai smiled but did not speak.

Kakulucia slapped his forehead, and Da Lang smiled: "Really! Far away, close at hand! I've forgotten about my husband's extraordinary achievements in alchemy, so please take a look. ”

As he spoke, he took out the agarwood.
