  • First off gz, well done! After the 19m run i did yesterday with you guys, i realized just how big the gap is compared to your avg. /lfg lomm group. I'm not sure why other groups are so far off, but i know for a fact that even good players seems to have problems getting your numbers/speed. I think for OP tanks its not a far…
  • I run with 4x DPS + 1x Heal (DC me) most of the time for lomm, we have the Barbie/GF switch to tank on last boss. I also have not noticed any big aggro problems on bosses for most tanks i run with, so for us the aggro meter works if the tank uses there aggro stuff.
  • IL 1000 can very rarely drop from the ME quest reward box, we have a ally member who confirmed this and linked his IL1000 piece. So its possible, but very very rare and at this point we have no confirmed example of a IL1000 drop from ME bosses or chest.
  • Compare this to Ravenloft hunts, even if no1 is around you can do them or form a group yourself as often as you want. If you are done with your daily's ME's and no one is around, you can't. They could have allowed a version where you can run as many ME as you like, without getting the quest reward and needing the quest. So…
  • Rage was bugged for me today, with 3x Rage i got no extra piece from chest. So double check what you actually get. From what i can tell, the IL980 weapons are only awarded from handing in the ME quest, so you only have 3 chances per day (yay rng). Same for new artifacts, which also only seem to come from quest box reward…
  • I do a lot of MW stuff (retired as of today yay!) and a few "canari" items would become inflated rather quickly. The items in question are MW GM only resources and needed by almost all MW items (Red Rouge, Potash, Coke, Alkali, Tincal). The price of those over the last months followed a normal supply/demand curve, they…
  • Thats rather simple, so let me explain. Most MW resources are used mainly for the BiS MW items or good alternatives, compared to other sources. So after the MW IL changes, we saw a surge in demand, since the new IL meant MW5 stuff was now BiS and MW3 at IL540/550 was still better than most other endgame stuff (CR, marks,…
  • Yeah that's because MW crafter's buy Gold Bars, instead of spamming trade chat for gold. The gold bar prices hold relatively stable, so ad:gold prices went from 100:1 right after the MW patch to 200:1 and than spiked at 500:1 as we hit peak MW demand and now we are at 320-350. Depending on new MW recipes for Mod16, prices…
  • From a game-design perspective the current companion system is a fail, it only succeeds as a extra ZEN/AD sink. The reason is that choices boil down to "can i afford BiS", "can i afford alternative BiS" if the answer is no than use whatever you can cheaply get. In comparison the mount system is better designed, since it…
  • Update: i just found this good guide: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1F3mCbLskTjFCtMOYnVb-AYLncw9VeDUpGATOZ8IPvPY What i was missing is the rather complicated and "strange" companion + bonding, double dipping powershare "snapshot" mechanic. There are a few examples given in the guide and after reflecting on this, its…
  • Yeah i agree, so the OP should try AC and DO and see how each feels, before investing too heavy. The problem is AC needs different gear than a dps/mixed DO. I wasted a lot of AD, just to come to the conclusion that my playstyle is not very AC friendly. Ofc it was my own fault trying to build a meta/endgame AC with a 1m AD…
  • Can you please elaborate, i still try to figure out the math stuff myself, but here is what i calculated. So we only compare TI vs WoL + Battle Fervor at 20k power, while assuming DPS players have also at least 20k power. 20k * 25% = 5k shared power added, which is a 8.4% DPS increase, how does this beat a 10% DPS buff? Is…
  • Which is more a fact based on how a AC is perceived, rather than real world performance. I'm also a returning player and yes i was "crazy" enough to try build a AC. I ended up with 30k power and 10k recovery, which meant i could hardly keep up AA, let alone HG, while emp BtS was also not up 100%. This alone is less than a…
  • Keep in mind that any group that is "looking for a DC AC" actually means looking for a AC power buff bot, that can share 40-100k power. This means you will need to invest heavily in power and at the same time still want to reach 18k recovery, so you are looking at a 5-20mil AD investment. Than the play-style itself is very…
  • Nah i noticed the new RP system and that i can refine equip now. Until you mentioned it i forgot about the different types of RP and that you needed matching for max. refines. I meant the huge amounts of RP you have to dump into items and the shady ward system, has not changed. I remember back than, everyone was running…
  • Oh so 1M per R13 is already the "reduced" price? What did they change in the refinement system, feels similar to when i left?
  • Thanks all for the tips, i guess i will stay DO for now at least and see how things end up in mod15. I still need to get me a guild, since i don't even remember the name of my old one. It also seems those are now "needed" to get higher IL, which is f... strange, but its PWE after all so i'm not surprised. I will just fool…
  • Thanks, so i guess i should just ignore the meta talk and just run low il randoms as DO and keep upgrading, until i hit 14-15k il. The funny thing is i still remember running DC as healer in VT with AS, BoH, WoH/FF and i had my hands full at the time :pensive: ( i really liked the div heal mechanic of FF) I don't really…
