Ok, got to level 5 (thanks @rsnumber2 and @Bigfish), and have the hang of the controls. Now I’ll start messing with builds.

I had fun with Ruckus last night, but I even did ok with Pip for a bit - although single shot guns still don’t mesh worth shit with how I play.

Ruckus, Viktor/Trya and a good healer should be able to nuke any player as long as they focus fire. The rate of fire is nasty. Run Wrecker if the enemy team has shield builds, Cauterize if they don’t to prevent heals.

Everyone should learn how to buy upgrades during a match. It’s set to auto buy and that’s a bad thing. Git Gud and learn to buy the shit you actually need.

Played a few rounds tonight after GTA. 1st round was really good, we smoked the team. 2nd round we capped every time and got close to the end all but the last time. I’m not sure if people don’t understand when it’s 3-3, the next cap wins.

One question, how the fuck do you earn essence? It’s the purple stuff used to craft the cards. I know you get it from duplicates from loot crates. And you can also use your gold to buy loot crates. Is there another way? Can I buy essence with diamonds or gold?

I really want a Ying build but can’t craft the cards I want.

That’s what I figured. It’s really the only thing I dislike as it discourages you from trying different characters or builds.

I’d pay another $20 bucks to unlock all the cards… just saying.

I don’t understand those letters. PvE? Sounds awful.

It’s in my GRG contract. I’m allowed to bitch about everything. It’s my one perk here, don’t ruin it.

Got my Ying Build. Ying is a neat character, it seems like a Guild Wars 2 Mesmer with healing abilities.

I also might check out this build.

I looked at Mal Damba after I had to get off so unexpectedly last night, and found a build that I’m gonna try out. I don’t think I have enough essence however. Anyone know how to get any???

Earning essence sucks in the game. I’m not sure if you bought the Founders Pack or not. They give you a lot if you do. Other than that you just have to put some time into the game. You get it for card duplicates. Which might be hard to come by if you don’t have the founders pack (as they give you a ton of crates, cards and essence).

As it stands, I’d pay an additional $20 bucks right now to forever unlock all cards.

Lala Pro-Tip: Every day you log into Paladins, you get a reward. It’s mostly gold and the last 2 days gives you crystals. Use the excess gold to buy some loot crates. All you have to do is log on, it takes just a minute or so. Each day the reward gets larger.

Daily Quests that give a respectable amount of Essence. It could vary between 1000 - 2000.

Starter Pack. Give all new players a sizeable amount of essence. Say 15 - 20 000. Enough for new players to get most cards for 1-2 Champions. Giving them some choice if they only wish to play with fully optimized characters.

Turn any card into Essence. Not just duplicates, but letting the player chose any card they’ve recieved, and turning them into Essence. Like, they don’t want to play Evie, so they turn all her cards into essence to spend elsewhere.

Yea I did the Founder’s pack, but have chewed through most of my essence already. Cant you just buy it? Wtf.

I’ll have to look at the duplicate card stuff. I know I have some of those

the dupes should auto convert to essence for you? when you open a chest you will see the card you get flip to a bottle of essence.

Ahhh ok I’ve seen that. I’m thinking of burning the cards for toons I don’t play. Thanks for clearing that up

So I had enough essence to make 3 different load outs for Mal Damba, and one for Lex, cause why the hell not?

I may or may not have spent some essence all willy nilly style

It’s the only way to do it. Lala approves of that method.

Need a thumbs down on this forum.
