Congrats to the devs on the positives and successes of the Mod6 launch!
There are plenty of complaints and negativity on these forums, all the time, every day.. if the devs had a dollar for every one, they'd be retired on an island sipping daqueries served by island bikinis (not hags like in drowned shores). So here are some positives of Mod6 launch and the job devs have done with game in general:
- Graphics in this game are beautiful. For a free MMO the graphics/effects (and combat mechanics) are very, very good. Mod6 has a mix of both reused/recycled and new map content. This is entirely reasonable given limited staff size and budget. In all, there is a lot of new artistic content with mod6.
- So far its been a fairly smooth launch. Some minor issues, but all in all not that many bugs. The quest line flows well. Most everything works.
- Herald rewards upgrading to L70 (for a brief bit, some got Greater belts) and the server outage for the first few hours was a hiccup but nothing catastrophic. I didn't stack rewards, others did, and some made nice ADs on belts because of the mistake - its not 'fair' but that's life move on.
- Devs put much thought into the rework of the stat curves and how certain stats operate differently. I believe these changes mostly make sense tol improve the game's future growth, build diversity/options, more options for class balancing, etc.
- The changes which affect the whole game economy like how enchants will be upgraded, RP sources, AD sources, leadership rework, invocation, and so on... I bet these were some of the hardest decisions s for the devs.
That's all that comes to mind right off. here are things that could be improved with the mod and the game for sure, but this post is just to say there is a lot right with it.

While there are some bugs/errors/imbalances/OP classes/nerfs (identified on the forums) I hope they look at them and decide which to fix first to make sure the game runs well. It's a pretty thankless job at times, but for one I thank them for the time and effort they've put in to make this game.
Still a bit undecided about the "new" zones, so far ive only taken the CW part way thru the first one, certainly ill not take all my char thru it as it seems way too grindy, but definately my DC and i hope SW (if it plays well still) will go thru to lvl 70.
All in all good job Devs, thank you.
Where have you been? Artifacts not working, and a large list of other issues as well are not "minor" but a major bart of my charactors combat ability. to most of us players they are classified as severe or critical problems, so quit kissing butt!
There is too much negativity around Mod 6!!!!
WHAT ABOUT THE GOOD THINGS?
I'm sure I can come up with an endless list of good stuff from this Mod. I'll just post a few:
