This was a a very silly way of using my college money, but It used it to buy an Alienware during late 2016. Most of you guys may be pissed off why I decided to choose a laptop instead of a desktop, but I had a few reasons and the configuration I chose was good.

Here is a story how I ended with Alienware:

Alienware fascinated me in middle school when I first saw it at Bestbuy.com and on Alienware's old site when it had the m17x models compared to the 17s today. It was the first time I saw a laptop with lighting zones. I chose Alienware because my Mom promised to get my "any" laptop if I got a Principal's Honor Roll. Alienware 17x was the most expensive and interesting computer on Best Buy's site so I went with that. I wanted to copy Sheldon Cooper and have an Alienware like him. Too bad I didn't score that high, so I then relied on saved up money and I then did my window shopping on Alienware's old site. I found out about customizations and found out that Alienware m17x and m18x could run SLI or CrossfireX graphics in them! I then settled for the small, but OP Alienware m11x which was a deadly gaming notebook. I could had been waiting forever if I wanted an SLI laptop. Also, Alienware's new laptops today don't have SLI T_T.

-I had a Dell preferred account and a discount from AAA
-I chose a laptop because the AC in my room wasn't able to cool me down and is loud as hell. A laptop allowed me to move my gaming down to the living room where my family has a good AC.
-32GB DDR4 was perfect for gaming and video editing. The i7 6820hk CPU was ridiculous and no other laptops I saw had that at that time
-8GB GTX 1080 was a great addition to the laptop
-The display featured a 120hz G Sync Display with a 2560 x 1440 resolution. There was also an option of going 4K, but for 60hz and no G Sync, but I chose refresh rate and G Sync.
-I saw the tech team of Dell showing the laptop's crazy cooling and massive heatsinks and fans
-Even though the wrist area is a fingerprint magnet, my laptop felt very sturdy compared to other laptops.

At that time, there weren't gaming laptops with GTX 1080s, dual Nvm SSDs + HDD, 120hz display with G sync. It also came with Tobii eye tracking which the demo itself was mindblowing. So I felt happy knowing I chose the best laptop at that time. If I were still searching today, I might had chosen a Blade Pro for its similar specs to the Alienware 17 and it being a lot lighter (the behemoth I am wielding today weights 4.5kg!)

At this moment, I am saving my money for a desktop rig that would replace my current desktop. I plan to build a PC running off the Z370 chipset and new Coffee Lake CPU that will perform my laptop by a bit (you must be loaded, but I just saving up Chinese New Years money). My old Clarkdale PC (1st gen intel core CPU) with be the guest/family computer.

The memory for my upcoming build will be 2x 16GB (I plan on upgrading to 64GB without having to replace sticks) from either Trident Zs or Dominator Platinums (overkill but I do plan doing other things besides gaming and video editing.) The CPU and mobo will be an 8700k from Intel with its dozen threads and hexa-core madness as well as Maximus X from ROG. I saved up about halfway for my dream build and Chinese New Years is coming. Wish me luck!

I almost voted "no" because I am used to having "yes" as the first choice.

I want Yut so I can beat the living daylights out of Arlong XD.

CMST has a shop where you can trade in your Denaros for the Sweetwater weapon or armor you desire. I am not sure if it was scrapped or made it into the live severs though. This is something we could have to make obtaining Sweetwater equipment easier.



Why would you want to leave your luck to RNG?

They’ll probably consider it 10 years from now. Took them a while to release link skill level 2 for hayato and that other one.

At least 205, meet the asking half way

-sigh- my merc is never gonna be 210.

I am selecting 200 because many accomplishments are made when you reach 200 as making an exclusive accomplishment at 210 is kind of silly.

Here is a list of things you accomplish once you reached 200.

-You unlock a level 200 medal as well as unlock Next Legend for your other characters
-Your Legion attacker tile becomes 4 from 3
-Your Legion attacker rank changes from S to SS and follow an improved Legion raid formula
-Hero's Echo is unlocked
-Fifth Job advancements and skills start becoming available
-Arcane Symbols are unlocked along with the Matrix system
-You unlock your final active hyper skill at 200 along with the last passive hyper skill at 200

Changing your character's Link skill level to 3 at level 200 should be an added accomplishment once you reach 200 rather than 210. Reaching levels beyond 200 should unlock more areas in the Arcane River as well as improving the formula for your Legion attack power.

I am perfectly fine with Royals except the lack of diversity since the set effect makes the user want to complete the set for the extra stat. Following this format, everyone would look the same. I was thinking of changing the stat set requirements so that you can obtain stats by having a certain number of Royal Cash items instead of pieces of a particular set. The stats from wearing individual pieces would be temporary but the set bonus from your mix of Royals will be permanent.

Of course this would make it so everyone sporting Royals would be better than those wearing non-Royals. To remedy the difference, I would like a cash item for non- royals so they can carry the "Royal" property and can be used in Sewing Machines and be worn in mix and match sets with sets (mentioned above.) But since Royal Coupons in KMS currently have a chance of granting the user a cash item with temporary stats, the cash item I am thinking of will not only "Royalize" your item but also have a chance of granting the item temporary stats. The item would only be usable ONCE to prevent Royal items with expired stats from gaining new stats.
