My first party in Epic 5

The long-awaited Epic 5 is here at last! Whee, nerfed pets! The Orc is not so bad, I guess, other than Shamanic Warrior having changed from a buff for anyone to a toggle for player and pet only. Not being able to buff people makes me a sad twinkie. Poor bpixies. Fairy Queen's Blessing went from HP regen for the entire party, to MP restore for player and pet only. What's up with that? At least their heals are better now, and instacast. 

Best thing so far about E5: item weight has been reduced.

Rappelz Online (from Old French "rapeler": to summon) is a free MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) made by Gala-Net Inc , the distributors of Flyff , Corum Online , Space Cowboy Online , Shot Online and UpShift StrikeRacer . It is based in a fantasy world dominated by three races of separate alignments: The Deva, guardians of light, the Asura, servants of the dark, and the Gaia, the protectors of nature. The game can be compared to games such as Lineage II .
Rappelz rupees is another in a spate of Korean MMO betas, all which follow similar trends, and apply simple, predictable formulas with little innovation. It seems that these games are an epidemic that is never ceasing, with dozens of nearly identical games with different graphics saturating the market. Is it possible for a free MMO to set itself apart from the pa crowd, when there players options are practically unlimited in this genre?
 

My first party in E5 was...atypical. No person died, but I usually hovered around half health, and the cleric was almost out of MP for most of the hour. Kukolka's afraid to try solo healing a full party after that. I don't know whether it was an actual change in our damage output and MP our skills use and E5 will just be harder than E4; or that we were all relearning how to use our reskilled pets; or that the party window was bugged so the cleric couldn't tell how low we were on HP and we couldn't see how low he was on MP; or maybe that particular party just didn't mesh well, or we were pulling too fast or slightly too low for the room. Or... I forgot to skill my belt pet... maybe others forgot too... that could do it. :/ I hope to party again with the three Honor folk I've been lvling with, before they outlvl me, and see if that goes any smoother.
