The problem is they want to leave the game accessible to free players and those who do not have large chunks of time to grind for higher level stuff. I believe one of the biggest mistakes was removing power curves which produced wide gaps in player power at similar level. If the differences between gear levels was less…
It seems the Divine Glow tooltip now reflects what it actually does. It is too bad it wasn't planned to make it work as originally worded since Devoted Clerics lost their similar great debuff utility with the High Prophet set.
The change is good except the "weapon damage" part. The TR's have one of the weakest weapon damage in the game and this will remain their best set regardless of the change. Couldn't you change it to a flat amount instead?
All these changes look good from what I can tell. And I'm usually the first to complain. The only thing I ask is to ensure that whatever you set Haste AP gain to be that it is still a worthwhile amount to the point of it still being a good feat for clerics. Clerics should feel that having it makes them feel like they are…
A better solution would have been the following: 1) Close the ZAX. No more buying Zen with AD. (yes, we would need a new way to transfer AD within our account too) 2) Leave these items in the TB store but make them Bind to Account. This does not remove the "you can play 100% for free" with the loss of the ZAX. It does mean…
Besides completing the mediocre boons, the enchants were the only reason I would play around in IWD. I stated several times to people that RP will be really hard to come by as Cryptic/PWE continues to crack down on enchant farming and drops in general.
Foundaries have so much potential to be significant in the game. I would rather see them remove enchant drops in Foundaries (even while using Fey enchants) and put better rewards in the end chest for approved dailies. Maybe some AD during the event and something better than the pathetic green item. Maybe new epic items…
You get a significantly small amount from leadership when you look at the required RP to rank up enchants past 7 or move artifacts up levels when they are epic. Marks are only needed for when you can actually get the items to the point of leveling them. Currently many people rank up enchants and artifacts by using large…
The idea I floated earlier was changing leadership reward from AD to toon bound refining stones. This would allow you to progress your toon still using leadership, just not your wealth of AD. That would severely cripple the AD farmers/bots and a slight hit on enchant farmers/bots (the later would have to be further…
I actually wish there were more shortcuts. Maybe make some class specific (like a door a TR can open or a hidden wall a GF can access a lever to that creates a bridge). The CN shortcut, if it is the one I am thinking you are talking about, requires a bit of skill to get the jumps right to get to the platforms. It is…
Might as well throw in my suggestion. I would suggest a Party preference option with two options: Fair Deal and Open. You will only join parties with a matching preference from blind queues. If in a party joining a queue every member must have same party preference. Fair Deal auto-greeds drops with +25 to roll if item…
No one (I believe) suggested scrapping leadership, but rather changing how it operates to prevent the vast amount of AD flooding the market daily. I suggested changing the AD reward to character bound refining stones. That would mean you could use the profession for RP for your toon but it would have little effect on the…
gentlemancrush- Could you please update your post on first page of this thread with all the changes? It is really hard keeping track of all the changes being done on this class thread and the other ones too. It would be greatly appreciated!
The Euro was a currency to combine multiple economies in to one. In many countries, such as France and Germany, their current currency was perfectly fine for their economy. "The victor nations in World War I decided to assess Germany for their costs of conducting the war against Germany. With no means of paying in gold or…
Which do you want? Do you want an example of rising costs or how an influx of a currency can devalue said currency and increase item costs? On the first I can give historical item cost rises in the AH. For the second real world examples. There is a reason why countries IRL tightly control the amount of currency they…
The game is riddled with quick ways to get AD. You get 1K AD per run during the skirmish hour and can easily fit in 5 or 6 runs. Some of the T2 dungeons are fast to run through with a group and can net several epic items which can either be sold on the AH for AD or salvaged. I think what you want is not to play and just…
That is incorrect. Casual gamers would benefit from Leadership farming being stopped as prices would drop. Currently the AD farming has resulted in a glut of AD which in turn has led to rising costs. Simple economics is that the less there is of something (like AD) the greater value it has. Those are interesting comments…
Hmm, guess you are right there. How about character bound refining stones then? People always need RP. That would prevent flooding the market with enchants.
Either that or a sharp decline in new AD generation. In particular if they target leadership profession farmers/bots the millions of AD flooding the market daily would dry up, thus creating more value in AD. Everyone (including self described casual gamers) would benefit as prices in the AH would drop too. I believe…
By the time you finish the boons you will have enough black ice to purchase the boots and helm. From those you craft 1 enchant, place in helm, power them up, and queue for Kessels Retreat. In Kessel's Retreat those Rank 5's drop all over the place. KR is a good skirmish to hit during the Skirmish event because of this.…
lol. Looks like the nerfs turned in to a bunch of changes to get people buying respec tokens. I will miss my right button flying button but I can just run up and clobber people (CC immune and much longer range now). IBS will be less face roll to land but, meh, I think I can deal with 2 second stuns to land it.
Even players who don't buy toon slots eventually figure out to max leadership for the free AD. Just click around a web page a couple times a day. You can even do it from your smartphone. All the cool kids are doing it. Seriously, what else is there to do with professions? It is free AD. And yes I agree it is flooding the…
AD is worthless since anyone can use leadership profession to create near 200K AD a day. And since so many people are doing this we have millions and millions of new AD flooding the market daily. It is like everyone has a money press at home and people are complaining the price of paper to print is going up. Until this is…
Already done. I hung up my TR and switched to a GWF. With the GWF I hit harder and I can use it in PvE too. Still will in Mod 4. With a TR the only viable build is perma stealth which is really cheesy and I don't want to play that way. The toon is still in my account, albeit stripped some gear, for the day I can use it…
