    I kinda like games like Elsword currently level 14 and heard there are no second jobs yet so Im just gone wait for that. My question is is Elsword better than GrandChase? Is GrandChase worth playing? Is it grindy?

    In my opinion, they both have their perks. Grand Chase's character combos are a lot smoother than the ones in the current characters out in Elsword. In my opinion, Grand Chase is worth trying. It is a game that'll keep you busy for a long while. It sucks in the beginning but it quickly gets better. All in all though, as of now Elsword NA is not better than Grand Chase. In about 3-4 months it'll have a lot more new things and then it will probably better. I just don't enjoy the characters very much (Currently level 8 Elsword). Grand Chase IS a grinding kind of game, with some quest n a horrible story, but the PvP is VERY fun.

    I see thanks for the reply i checked their site and the character drakkar looks very nice. The site tells me that he starts at level 30 does that mean i cant select him as my first char?

    Play Grand Chase if you plan on playing for 2 months just to change jobs. That stupid quest takes FOREVER.

    Same here. Elsword may not have a lot of content right now, but its still worth a try.

    I find a Elsword to be more or less equal with Grand Chase..

    I mean, they both feature meddling kids going out of their way to save the world from evil and what not.. Both features characters with the color Red being the Knight, Purple being the Mage, and Green being the Archer.. While I feel Grand Chase features alot of action and a awesome PVP, I do feel as though Elsword will eventually get the better of it with more updates to come later in the year. The fact that there is NO 1hKOs nor Mass Camp & Skill spam in Elsword easily makes it more tolerable.

    As long as Elsword doesn't follow the same path GC did with easing up the dungeons and making PVP a total joke, I can say I'd go with Elsword anyday. Continuing on:

    MP usage isn't such a spam fest in Elsword, which I like because it makes Elsword feel more like a challenge because of course, I'm not invincible all the time and doing uber damage. Even with the mage, skill spamming is tad difficult..

    I personally like the combat system of Elsword over Grand Chase, having both light and heavy attacks, though the heavy attacks can have some flaws; Elsword knowing to knock enemies down ruining combos, and the Mage spending MP to perform her heavy attacks.

    While Elsword clearly lacks alot of characters unlike that of Grand Chase, this does leave a better story as unlike GC, they don't have to revamp the whole damn thing (Chaos) just to make everything fit together.

    As far as Job advancement goes, I got little to say but it's pretty much all for Elsword, where with each job advance not only lets you access new skills, but they grow, compared to Grand Chase will you play as a Sword Master yet you're still the same ol 16 year old red head. The whole 2 paths for 2nd job makes me wonder just how easier or harder both Dungeons and PVP will play out, because let's face it, one will conquer another in one or more ways..

    Dungeon wise, It DOES GET HARDER.. I cannot explain just how many hits it takes more me to defeat one enemy, even WITH mp skills, compared to Grand Chase will your 2nd bar is the most OP thing, and sometimnes stronger than your 3rd bar.. That being said, after Season 3, GC became a joke... It's more noob-friendly, as in Lv.10's beating Lv.30 dungeons 3 Stars, whereas in Elsword, you do need a team if you ever want to advance in hard mode.

    Let's talk about Stamina now.. I find it to be a bit of a pain, but it benefits in both fairness between the players and your health.. If Maplestory had a Stamina System, trust me, hackers would quit, and leechers and no-lifes would actually do something with their life.. While it is a pain losing 5% stamina alone, you lose ALOT less with a team by your side.. Who wants to solo anyway?

    Overall, Uninstall GC if you did, and stick to Elsword.
    Games I currently play:

    Cosmic League
    Minecraft
    Warframe
    Lost Saga

    Waiting for: Overwatch, Maplestory 2, and Rakion 2.

    Grandchase may have smoother combos but i prefer Elsword because it's not really cash shop based and the graphics are far superior to GC

    I think Eslword has better PVE and Grand Chase has better PVP. Right now Grand Chase has way more content. But eh just play the new game. If you haven't played Grand Chase yet it's way late to start up. Sure there are other low levels playing but still. Old game.
