  • /me plays micro-violin. They give a FREE update, one that a lot of people were expecting to have to pay for in the way of a "Mount Training IV" just to get the speed boost and yet: there still are whiners and criers and their entitlement attitudes going boo-hoo about it. /me laughs. /me laughs really hard. IT'S FREE…
  • This is actually a nice thing, I was expecting a "Mount Training IV" item to be sold. Automatically upgrading all legacy Legendary Mounts to the new speed is one of the few changes since Mod 6 that actually makes me happy. Not just another "meh", but actually happy. Soe will likely moan about missing "bonus stats" and…
  • It was worth every penny I paid for it at the time I bought it. What do you think of a movie you paid ten dollars to go see when it's over? Same thing: is it worth the entertainment you get from it at the time you bought it? And many of the items originally in the HOTN pack aren;t in there any more (example: 2 Million AD).…
  • I saved all my pic gear just for this purpose - even with the massive nuke on AD earning abilities (hence: never salvaged/sold in SH) - because I had forewarning that they were all going poof. Though I have been banging on the Devs heads since shortly after launch: we need more transmute stuff - even in the Zen market:…
  • 1) I did't say all gear and I never meant for you or anyone to presume I meant all gear. I should have been more clear about that 2) I never said I don't support your idea. It's a good idea. But I get it: we tend to inject negative slant on comments we read even if there is none. But no worries. I was simply expressing…
  • When you change gear (transmute, gear, *sometimes* refining/ranking up) - it becomes bound. it has been this way since ALPHA days, it has been this way since alpha of Star trek Online (also Cryptic, same game engine) more than five years ago. It has always been this way. That it has not been changed or "fixed" lends…
  • The game is already in the toilet. We're all just waiting for the inevitable FLUSH.
  • Wait... you think the nerf to Leadership AD farming is a good thing, but now your complaining the AD sinks cost too much? Wow. Simply, wow. Ummm, logic tip: when we were able to farm AD in leadership - cost to upgrade companions and mounts was NOT too much. But now that the AD river has gone all but entirely dry - now they…
  • Yus - I upgraded my water horse to Rank II (because the AD weren't nerved yet) - it rocks at rank III. (And it's obvious rip-off from the river scene in LOTR TFOTR LOL - but yeah, among the more creative mount animations they've done since way back.
  • If your focus is party support: many Paladins are rocking Holy Avenger for weapon, and ... I think it's Frostburn for armor, but I could be misremembering for armor. And I reiterate - these are with party support directly in-mind because these are designed as party buff/debuff types.
  • I suspect most people sitting on stacks of GMoPs are looking to upgrade their enchant GEMS (Armor/Weapon Enhancements) and whatnot. I also suspect this is WHY they are NOT changing the enchantment GEMs because of this. The change to GMoP/SMoP affects plain enchantments only. I really doubt people stacking GMoPs are going…
  • There are a few Leadership tasks that still grand AD - all are "rare" and all require additional resources - primarily: Mark of Gratitudes and Siege Engines, the ones I've seen range between 400 AD to 1600 AD and average 16 Hours. Personally: not worth even looking for them. I log into my alts and invoke for Coin. I'm…
  • Really good point (though that falls under in-game sink) :)
  • That's a good place to start. And I have *faith* you guys will go down the line through all economy sinks, eventually getting to things like Training Tomes and whatnot. It all takes time, I get it. I'm patient enough to wait it out as long as you guys are least always 'moving forward' regarding this stuff - and it's a…
  • Ummmm.... every time you start the game you see the LAUNCHER. The LAUNCHER always warns when there will be a patch applied. The LAUNCHER NOTICE about a new patch being applied also has a link to PATCH NOTES. All anyone has to do is pay attention to the LAUNCHER NOTICE and click the PATCH NOTES link and voila! Seriously, a…
  • LET US LOOK AT THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM. The elephant in the room is X-Box version. I do not believe in the slightest that they are intentionally scaring players away. However, I also believe that they - Cryptic - are throwing their bets at the console version and simply experimenting with the PC version. That is all we…
  • You literally make my point for me. I'll not explain further, because anyone edified with deductive reasoning does not need it.
  • LOL - THIS. (edit to clarify: I *agree* with the statement in the quote) Any discussion of AD at this point shall always, either directly or innuendo, refer to AD NERF/LEADERSHIP/DAILIES-LOSS. FACT: if you're happy about the AD nerf to professions then be happy about the nerf to dailies. Because guess what: they are both…
  • You say OP tank - so that is to presume you went Protection path and stacked-up your HP to the gills. I'd recommend you stack your ArmorPen on all your offensive slots and avoid the claw attack (by actually moving out of the way). This is my own set-up (in short) and I'm always the last one standing everywhere I go;…
  • Oooh... be careful what you wish for. BLAMO! LOL Okay - you do make good points, but I can't help but lave at the oxymoronic nature of your opening sentence. Yes. really. They need to leave things as they are. Screw those Daily HAMSTER - removing those was a good move, really - [Whoops, I'me sound like your first opening…
  • All those people shouting to "Remove AD from professions!!!ONE!11" have gotten their wish. Now they will see what their wish has gotten them. As for the ZAX backlog suddenly disappearing? Lots of Zen order cancellations. Everyone who still has AD is now an AD Hoarder. Since they won't be buying as much stuff from AH prices…
  • They squeeze the AD faucet as tight as they can. Everyone eventually runs out of AD. The release new "DrIzZZzt" Companion for 10 Million. The gullible much to buy Zen to ZAX for the AD to bid on him. Tah-da!
  • Bot-defense. Bots won't know how to pick up that kind of drop. //be careful what you wish for, people.
  • I never get a crash, but I have been getting constant "account server timed-out" messages for a few months and I have to keep re-entering my password to login. It started getting better but now it's back. Just as well, the uber-nerf to Leadership leaves no reason to change characters every morning now. So it's become a…
  • Doesn't matter how we want it to end. it apparently has since Tuesday morning. The titanic has hit the iceberg, now it will be a few hours (weeks/months) for it to sink slowly and deliberately. Fortunately the management can still plug the hole on this one. I hope they don;t wait too long on that, though. It looks like the…
  • They are just making you earn the 25 AD you get by invoking; you must play the game and are compensated by how MUCH you play. So the new invoke process now qualifies for those AD it gives you.
