It can be complicated. Twice as many encounters (essentially) to manage and know which to use for a given situation. As for the topic, I haven't played the combat tree yet, but given the range of melee encounters I use regularly, I don't see how the OP could have such a problem. The class is designed to always switch,…
I ran 2 dungeons after the patch, only got the AD for the first when I turned in to Rhix. No AD on the second at all. Haven't run anymore yet, had to go to work, will try again later.
The one in October was probably a prescheduled event, and the one we're having now is just a result of the community rewards that they didn't have the foresight to think we'd actually obtain ;)
On top of that, they are capping dungeon/ skirmish income at 7200 AD each. That would hopefully double to 14.4 on 2xAD events, which is far below what I made in the last event (400k). So, they're trying to stabillize the income, and making no attempts on fixing the expense side of the economy.
The only money I've spent in this game was to buy bigger bank slots to hoard my RP over the past 2 months. I won't spend anymore now that I've run out of the zen I bought. I didn't do a leadership army, I only got my AD from dungeon/skirmish hours and salvaging gear. I farmed dungeon/skirmishes during the last 2 double AD…
My HR is far from useless ;) In the events I've organized with the guild, I've been the lead dps, but I am still a bit squishy, so I've had to run back from the campsite a few times if I happened to be on the far side of a red swamp from the DC. Trick for me is to get in and out fast, which means 5xr6Darks, for the time…
Good to know, will hold on to my bahamut HAMSTER until I get elemental gear, as I don't foresee any other progress after that for a long time. Dragon flight gear is not currently obtainable without guild hopping for dragon fights, and I'm not doing that ;)
For the smaller guilds that can only manage greens and blues, they are going to be hurting for a long time. Not all of them can consistently farm an epic dungeon like thefabricant suggests. 5 and 20 points is ridiculous when the next jump goes to 810. WTF? How about some proper scale, 5, 20, 100 or adjust blue and green to…
I'm more curious if you enhance your elven gear, and then refine that gear with blackice to get the elemental elven, do you still have the bahamut enhancement too?
For the keys you make, I don't claim them until I'm standing in front of the chest they go to. For the dungeon keys, I don't buy them till I need them. But alas, I didn't start this practice until after I had 4-5 keys already lol. Now I still have a Valindra key waiting to be shoved into her chest hehehe. >:)
I define active as someone who plays 3+ times a week, contributes to the guild (either the coffer or aiding a fellow member), and sometimes parties with members for a dungeon run. If you're in the guild and only invoking with that toon, you're not really in the guild (therefore, not active). We have a 1 month activity…
The most notable times I see the fox's shift speeds is when I literally run through normal cc for dungeon hour. I'll hit the 3 bandits on the left of the first lantern and just fly down the hall to the 2nd. Usually I'm well ahead of the other two guys in that dungeon, all because of fox's shift. I haven't noticed its…
I used to have the hardest times with dodging, I think I've gotten some mastery of it, as I'm able to kite a scorpion in eLOL pretty effectively now. My biggest dodge issue isn't with the HR shift, it's with the Fox's cunning dodge. Why do I get a dodge to an attack, but still suffer the daze or stun of said attack? An…
A very informative and insightful thread. When I started NW, I chose the Archery path. I've always been a distance fighter, and I played solo for most of the content to level 60. As I got closer to 60, it was becoming near impossible to play solo, and I had only a healer companion for most of the game. I picked up some…
The roots don't hold very long, but with feats and boons, they can be extended. I can only root a player for about 2 seconds, but I'm not spec'd for pvp. Over the past month (since some recent patch) picking things up or triggering actions with F has been much more difficult. You have to stand in just the right place, at…
I was just looking at this last night for my HR. Going from the Alliance Raid gear (for crits) to the Elven gear causes me to lose crits and add to Recovery and ArmPen...I already have insane ArmPen, I don't need more. I want to upgrade my crits for dps, not downgrade for a higher item level. How about a more diverse set…
I can only speak to what I've seen for difficulty. I play an HR, and my original spec was archer, I couldn't go anywhere without a party once I hit level 60. By the time I got to 70, I could solo the EE HAMSTER, not that I wanted to be in there..ugh vigi quests. I ended up respecing to a trapper, and even the lvl 73 mobs…
I got one of those doing eLoL yesterday. Double clicked it and it gave me what should have been the contents of the chest it came from. Still don't know what it is either.
I chose the Elven Fury, but don't have the final IWD yet. I did notice a discrepency with the Elven Fury. It states in the boon description that it gives 135 power per stack, but the buff icon has a label of 20 power per stack.
