    The Leaderboard season has reset to accompany the new module.

    Does this mean a new season of NCL? .. Will we be able to earn Combat League Tokens again?

    Waiting patiently ... Good luck to players and staff
    There are more than BIS players in this game
    RIP Real Tiamat, RIP Real Demogorgon RIP real Temple of the spider. Why remove non bis content to give to bis players ????
    FORCING the majority of your player base to play 4 mod old dungeons and trial will have a bad result on player base

    Why do we need cake? We are getting lots of other awesome stuff with Strongholds. Besides, I want a donut instead.

    This was an oops—it should be removed from the patch notes now. It was changed on preview and then changed back. In short: Divine Touch isn't changing, and won't be displaying as a personal shield.

    Great! the only fix is the graphical display of one feat, that we all knew was only graphical, great fixes for the HR

    Because pugs were joining the queue, looking at their rewards, and dropping out if they didn't want/need the reward.

    This update promises some great stuff (not just from Stronghold); I hope we can all download the patch and play without major lag today/tomorrow.

    Good luck everyone :)

  • wentriswentris Member Posts: 542 Arc User
    Sounds interesting, cant wait to test it :)
    I also keep my fingers crossed that Damage Resistance bug has been ninja fixed, or random 1 shot deaths will keep preventing not overly geared teams from beating T2 content - and annoy everybody else.

    The only thing I don't like about this update is the way the Temp HP and HP bar layers work; its a problem when you get enough Temp HP to cover all of your current HP.

    Otherwise play testing this has been very positive.

    Obsidian Moonlight - Paladin
    Obsidian Oath - Warlock
    A whole lot of other Obsidian toons as well.

    "Greatly reduced the chances of level 69 items dropping for a level 70 player."

    Unless this has been reduced to ZERO chance in zones like Sharandar and Dread Ring, it still needs work. It has been pounded into the forums that the old boon zones are, and will be level 70 areas. Level 6x items need to stop dropping for for level 70 toons COMPLETELY in these areas. At the end of the Sharandar access quest, after fighting through 70+ mobs, the player is awarded a level 60 piece of armor as a reward. IWD HEs award level 60 Battlehammer armor or weapons. Rewards in the campaign windows need to be updated to level 70 appropriate items. Once again, poor itemization. There are still lots of itemization issues like this in every expansion zone form Sharandar to the Dragon Well.

    Still need to address the experience flow from 60 to 70. You keep running threads asking for input. You consistently get told the content doesn't drive the player to 70 like it should. Then the complaints that are almost unanimously critical of the current status get summarily ignored.

    A number of good fixes in this, assuming Strongholds doesn't add new ones. With that said, I'm disappointed that a lot of cleaning up that still needed to be done from the MOD 6 train wreck remains unfinished.

    Only a graphical fix fo HR what happened to the perma root/daze/elven battle and bleed bugs HR's have been abusing? Dont get me wrong i do appreciate your hard work and the new content, but its these types of bugs that have driven away pvprs and pvers alike. Thank you for your time and effort.

    Not gonna like this, but we're extending the downtime ETA to 3pm PDT. *summons a dragon to protect us*

    9 hours for a code deployment? Seriously

    That was for Xbox when Microsoft was having some issues with Xbox Live. They had to wait for Microsoft to fix things before they could continue.
