thinkings of cw4

9th november, 2026

Back when CW3 was about to start, I was very hyped up with my new account and account plans.
And then I ended up making myself uninstall the day before the event P:

I'm curious as to how (if) I'm going to play CW4 - half of my brain is very excited, and the other half might make me uninstall the game again

Been thinking about which class to play but unable to decide. Hero? DW? Lynn? Ice Lightning? The new class?

I'm also confused with the whole Quanah world system. Does Maple world not exist on it? Are you just stuck in a simulation?

Looking forward to the 500,000 word patch notes as usual :D

I watched this yesterday, it's a well-known Interactive player explaining why they're swapping to Heroic.
Nit - Quitting Interactive for Heroic

To close, here are some cute Halloween decorations at Henesys:

sol janus 30

19 October, 2026

This year's Night Troupe was disappointing since it's mostly having to do "minigame" chores.

I wouldn't mind if they were more like flash games, but they're instead like playing those bad "spot the difference!!!" malware advertisement banner interactives.

The non-minigame hunting quest results in you having about 450 fragments a week though,
so now we have Sol Janus at level 30.

Now I can be like the cool kids with their 2 minute rotations where they stand still when training:

Having a bright white beach as the player's primary training location sure is a design decision.

I didn't realize Challenger World 4 is so close by, it's in 4 weeks.
Not sure who I want to play.
Kind of tempted towards Lynn though I already have one, and other regions are planning to nerf it.

I'm not playing the early access but I'm watching niru again so I thought I would do the weird thing of documenting his progress a bit

He picked a random class and got Ice/Lightning Mage.

I haven't been doing a good job at the whole "stick to one account" matter either

the ren progression has been fun.
