Item level bugs

I have been seeing my item levels go up and down as of late, I've worked hard to get my character where it is and this is really not sitting well with me. I understand that your stats will fluctuate but item levels should not and this is just 1 of the many bugs i keep finding with this game. I took a break from this game and ive been back for a month now and its worse then ever.

I started taking screen shots because I knew it wasnt me seeing things, at 1st I noticed when i upgraded 2 of my armor enchantments and added a new 14 enchantment, in addition, to 3 boons and not much of a change reflected on my item level, but today its dropped from yesterday item level 24,867 to 24,515. I just checked again and in the time it took me to write this and take the screen shots out of my ps4 now its 24,590. What's going on here?

Great! now i have to upload the screenshots to a url in order to post it here ufffffff my frustration levels are at its peak. If you need them I will upload them somewhere else so i can upload them here (yeah makes perfect sense... NOT!) and If you dont then i wont go to the trouble of having to post them somewhere else to add them here. aaaaanyways, fix this!

Re: Scaling perspective from an almost newbie.

Take this with a grain of salt, but once you have run the stuff and have become familiar with the underlying mechanics of dungeons/trials, not hitting the caps while being scaled down will not be the issue.

Most random queues fails because they are not familiar with said mechanics, because they attempt Random Queues for the RAD, and they just never bother to learn the mechanics of let's say lomm, or codg, or castle ravenloft, and just quits or afks as soon as they get it.

Re: Which dps you like to join IC or TOMM

I can't even remember when i last called in a chat that i need a dps for something, i always pick guildies or frlist. But if i had to choose i'd always pick the cleric dps first for both tomm and ic

Re: New Legendary Mount Pack

But why is the interpretation negative? I can see this as a movement thinking on players instead of a movement to make fast money. And you dont HAVE TO buy it, is just an opportunity.

Lots of people is asking for account legendary mounts since ages, and now that is a special worldwide situation and people is playing more than ever, they release a pack in my eyes the price is a joke even if you only have 1 character, not to mention if you have 4 or 5 characters...

So, isntead of thinking that is a money grab you can see it as a unique opportunity to get something very very very cheap. If you dont want to spend money dont do it, you can buy it with your exchanged zen or even with AD.

Even if you buy it in the AH, paying 8M for a legendary account mount is a joke comparing with the prize we had 1 week ago. You get a cheaper mount, and ACCOUNT WIDE.

So.... again... where is the problem?
3rd person in a row to completely miss the point its the situation of 2020... not the pack itself HAMSTER hell

You really have understanding problems. If you can read my post, I said that the moment is the important thing, not the pack.
if we weren't in this situation, they wont release this pack cant you understand this? so please stop with that HAMSTER when others doenst agree with you.

Re: New Legendary Mount Pack

(true story btw)
Oh no, i've bought a tenser for 17m, a black ice warhorse for 15m and various other mounts for ~10m long ago.

Now there's a sale on legendary mounts i do not need !!1!!1! ME NO LIKE IT ME QUITS GAME !!1!1

This is how people like you sound. Stuff may lose its value quickly, it's not just mmorpgs, it's life. Don't tell me you never bought some item and a few days later it was on sale.

Re: Why isn't Cryptic talking about the extreme lag on all platforms?

Latency (lag) is not always caused by the site you are trying to access. However this recent lag appears to be due to a free mount event pushing server population up. The server shard has to keep track of all the players information; position, actions, etc.. The system also has to track NPCs the same. The areas you will run into the majority of lag are Protector's Enclave and Avernus. I didn't experience lag until exiting the Moonstone Mask to use the mail box and it took me a long time to walk to it and back inside.

I can only guess the reason no official Cryptic people are here to comment about it; what can they say? They can just acknowledge it exists. I would like them to be working on it, than here chatting about it. But this is Sunday, I doubt there is anyone but a small skeleton crew there today. I am also speculating, they could be having some issues with hardware. I am not disrespecting their servers, but I assume it is mostly the same equipment that dates back to Champions in 2009.

None of the players here can do anything about the latency either. Just go find an area unaffected by the large surge and special event, and have fun!
It would take all of 15 seconds for a community manager to pop in and say that they're aware and working on it. Instead of ignoring the issue.

Don't make excuses for a company that will gladly and effortlessly sit back and take your money.
I bet my payment goes through frustration free.

I hope you took time to read through my whole post. I don't see any "excuses" I am just being honest to these facts;

You asked the question on a Sunday when no one is at work.
The question you posted is loaded. - It is implying they don't care about your question before you asked it.
You and I don't work at Cryptic, therefore we have no idea about the workload.

In my statement above, paragraph one simple explains the most likely cause for this latency is the chicken event. When you enter PE there is a horrible lag, once I switch to a low population map instance, it goes away. This doesn't excuse the fact the event is causing such an issue. When the event is done and over it should return to normal. In the second paragraph, anyone from Cryptic stating they are working on it, means very little to me. They have acknowledge problems and issues in the past and ignored to correct them. Finally I point out the hardware could be very old, and again this is not an excuse, they should be able to maintain and upgrade servers.

So @zedfighter where is it you see me excusing them for anything? I don't excuse you for asking a loaded question on a Sunday and assuming people just don't care.

Re: Legendary mount pack

Please keep in mind there is a freaking Global Pandemic is going on. We have NO idea how this is affecting the devs and other people at NW.

If there was ever a time we need to give them some slack it's now. We all can survive a few days while they get it sorted.
