I've seen a lot of footage of sanctum, but are there videos or screenshots of Pandemonium? This is news to me (I didn't even know the name of the asmodian capitol). I'd love to see them

Here's the offical Pandaemonium trailer:

Why are Elyos the better choice.

Go look at the Sanctum Tour Video again and the character models and there you go.

Hopefully we'll be able to whip these Elyos Carebears into shape and mold them into warriors who spread peace, love, joy, and smiles...... through force!

Oh btw, I like that the Elyos don't have this.

Do you realize that wow had so many servers? And not all server was HORDE uber in pvp, and alliances carebears.

Pandaemonium just looks like uber blah. It just looks like a regular human city to me, rather than a demonic-ish haven. Seriously, Elysea just looks stunning, and looks like a city where Elyos would actually live. Pandaemonuim, on the other hand, just looks like an off-brand human city.

Maybe we haven't seen quite all of it yet. Not that I really care, since I'll be playing Elyos.

Oh I know. It's just a little stereotypical stab I had to make. All of my friends on WoW who PvP hardcore are Horde, and the few I know on Alliance are mostly PvE (though..... they suck so I don't want to classify all the Alliance by them

)

I actually like how Pandaemonium looks. >.> I like all the glowy, different colored lights and the vegetation they have in the city. Sanctum looks so bright to me, but it does look more majestic than Pandaemonium.

Oh, I like how it looks, but I don't really see it as being the Sanctum equivalent for Asmodians. Does that make a bit more sense?

I agree with you. Both worlds are indeed beautiful, with some areas conquering the look of others for both (ex: Elysea's forest areas are more breath-taking than Asmodae's, or at least from what I've seen so far), but Pandaemonium just doesn't seem to equal Sanctum's extravagance (or visual piety, as I like to call it

).

CBT1 results actually showed a huge supremacy of the Asmodian side. Let's see how it will go on CBT2.

Pandaemonium actually looks pretty awesome to me, dark but with funky glowing things. That being said, Sanctum is still the cooler of the two. I really like the airy architecture and all that.

Sry for posting "against" u

I'll be playing Asmo. Dark always wins (at least for me)

I always had an "attraction" to dark...
To me, both "worlds" look nice...Maybe u play Elyos becouse they have cool wings, maybe u play them to look more human, maybe u play them becouse they don't have hair on their back...4 me, I play Asmo cause they are dark, I play them becouse they are more cool, I play them becouse they have claws, I play them becouse i'm attracted to dark, I play them becouse they have cooler wings (as I see them)
So.....I'm playing an Asmo :P
Elyos are nice too...but I really want to play Asmo, and I hope Asmo will be the best at pvp (as horde in WoW

)

Well, there are things that i always liked in RPG and in Fantasy tales, and those are wings, flying cities, happy endings, that old fashioned "inoccent boy in a shining armor hero" and the romance with that "inoccent pure hearted girl" both with the "willpower to do what is right no matter what" so... That leaves only one choice for me and that's Elyos all the way. Heh

Elysea also looks amazing with those lush forests, lakes and charming villages, not to mention the marvelous Sanctum. I fint it much more enjoyable to play a scenery like this as "my house" and adventure on more "dark places", know what i mean?

But i also find Asmodea pretty cool, its just not my thing. Wich is good by the way, variety like this brings more interesting people for you to meet and interact with, imo. ;D

Right now, the scale tips towards Elysea on CBT2.

As for the reason why there's more information on Elyos, it's because NCSoft released information of Elyos before Asmodian. They worked on Elyos first, so I'm going to have to say the balancing issues are not as complete on the Asmodian side. There's a possibility that they might change the looks of Asmodian wings in the future, as there are a lot of complains from the closed beta testers.

Not sure about the size of Pandamonium, will have to justify that one once I reroll. But I have a feeling that it should be just as big as Elysium =p

Otium · 04-13-2008, 04:12 PM

So, you think that the Asmodian side isn't entirely balanced yet? Are there a lot of OP classes?
