    *taps foot* Is it 9am yet? (almost...) .... I'm probably going to wait to try the new areas until the initial crowd furor dies down (I'm expecting lag etc but maybe I'll be surprised), but I'd like to look at that new professions and other stuff...

    Yeah...that's a bummer. I didn't realize that wasn't intentional, although perhaps I should have. :)
    I wonder if it applies to items already on companions.

    Epic set items will be available to purchase, it is ONLY the DD chest that will be bound, in RARE instances, they can drop from bosses too :)
    And these items rise in price. W8! Cryptics sell Zenn&AD... But of course it was not done for profit.

    Let's see: Hammer of Fate is dealing "too much damage." So far, I can't even kill a minion with a full hit. Now they're removing 40% of the power? Seriously? What else can possibly be done to nerf the DC? Why not remove the power to heal entirely? :mad:

    Please tell me how the Devoted Cleric ( A Healing Paragon Path ) is completely useless because a daily that I never even use as a 10.8k GS + 5.5k Power,3kcrit,3kRecov,2kDef Cleric.

    Oh what Flame strike works perfectly fine? well then I guess use it as it's AOE has always been better imo and it knocks back slightly and knocks down. or do you just not know how to use flame strike efficiently? and oh god please tell me your not using Hammer of Fate in dungeons is so please go reroll a fighter class.

    "Blue-quality gear now has a lower chance of dropping in the open world."

    ^ can someone explain this to me. The reasoning behind it. As if blue gear dropped frequently.

    On preview you basically got a blue drop every lets say 5-10 kills of monsters... sometimes more sometimes less.

    that's on preview but on live its way way less. which means preview has a bug as its base isn't setup exactly like live which means when this hits live its going to be even more rare to get a blue drop than before!

    Heh. Emergency maintenance. Actually, I'll say great job Cryptic for swiftly reacting to and correcting a problem. Stuff is gonna happen. You guys were on your game and picked up the ball as soon as it dropped. Kudos.

    Ohhh so on your planet they have summer the same month all across the world? how interesting...

    LOL I think they are referring to the traditional day of midsummer, the summer solstice, which occurs on June 20/21.

    I would assume that they would, or rather it would be a bit fair if they did. A lot of people who got their mounts probably had to deal out a bit of effort than just getting one from a non-directed issue of a bug. If I had gotten a mount from it like that, I wouldn't care too much if they did rollback personally. lol

    well many ppl would be pissed off if they don do rollback and leave that mounts to lucky ones.
    on the other hand many ppl would be pissed of if they decide to do rollback which means server offline 4 quite a bit...

    I wouldn't think the time that it was down would be too much if they did do a rollback. I mean, the servers were up for just a short amount of time, right? But I am only throwing speculation out, as I don't know how their system is set up. I would assume they would be able to do it in some sort of timely manner if/when they do.

    Couldn't agree more. I just looked at the clock, said to myself "hey, it's past 9 am" and tried logging in...got the "Server not available" message and assumed there were so many people online that the servers were full or overloaded. Then I went searching through various forums trying to see if there was another explanation, and it took me about 10-15 minutes to find the end of this thread and an explanation. Some sort of notification on the launch screen or even a stickied forum post would have been nice.

    Oh well, now we wait, I suppose. Though I'm happy about many of the updates, I can't say I'm thrilled about some of the changes to feats & powers for my two main characters (CW & DC). I guess I get what I pay for.
