Does it honestly matter?

My friend n I ordered our copies tonight and we plan on hopefully getting on the same server or bumbing a world pass (wink wink jm lol) in order to play together...catch is i'm gona be an elvaan and he's gona be a hume =/ so i decided to start in san'doria for the "stats ring" and the scenery and he chose bastok i think it is ....would it really affect his stats if he were to start in san'doria with me or no? be honest dun juss tell me the answer i want to here lol.

-Thanks much-

His stats won't be affected, but he won't get a ring like you get. I heard he can purchase one later if he becomes a Bastok citizen, and can afford it (some point system, I forgot which though).

Well, a free ring is .. well.. a free ring, all the stat rings are quite nice to have around especially as a newbie, I haven't gotten much into re-swearing allegience to different kingdoms, but I've heard its sort of a quest and it'll setcha back about 20k, as far as stat loss goes, you'll only lose the stats that the ring bestows, and I beleieve coming from Bastok the ring would do some vitality (can't remember) and at least 2 other small effects. If it makes you feel any better I'm a Mithra sworn to Sandoria and once you get to a certain level the stat ring becomes obsolete anyway, so if your really looking to stick together and you must be different races I'd say just choose a city and both of you start there, the advantage will not be largly noticable.

Of course its still up to you -_^ but this is my two cents on the subject ^^ :O

you can get the ring throught exchange your cp for item. however, you will find other very useful rings after you play the game and got many money:biggrin:

And your two cents helped us decide - thanks a lot. i thought they were added stats given to u, not an equipable item so thanks everyone.
