Unfortunately crafting is largely useless in NWO. There's one shirt you can sell and leadership AD farm. Getting items that you can neither use nor sell for anything better than 1G is depressing as hell.
So how do you propose people make money? The drops in dungeons are 90% useless because everyone is going for a very particular set of items. Your proposal creates pretty purple garbage in everyone's inventory.
This is false. "Pay to win" is a fairly well-defined structure, most people just attribute any kind of real money mechanic to it. There are games out there that are "pay to win".
Agree with adding "something" instead of exp. Maybe AD at a factor of 1/1000. Heck, I'll even take extra gold...currently, seeing the "you've gained 4000 exp...oh, wait..." from invoking is depressing :P
Need binds blues and purples at least in dungeons. It started about a week ago. I confirmed this once on myself in normal dungeon and multiple times in epics (with my own rolls and others).
I'm going to ignore any previous posts and just answer the question, in case OP still reads it. There's nothing "wrong" with "pay to win" same as there being nothing "wrong" with selling an apple for a million dollars. The difference between subscription games and "free" games is that the "free" games are supposed to be…
What needs to happen with dragons is an HP cut by about a factor of 10. Make the attacks hit for more, add more adds, w/e, just cut the **** HP so people don't have to whack at it for an hour. I stopped doing any dragon-related dungeons after the first few.
Using leadership for AD seems like the best idea right now. Without zen input, grinding out the profs is pretty slow and you will probably want the uncommon assets for everything. You can make epics (although most of them are "rare" events which come up randomly and require some expensive ingredients) but so far I haven't…
You've never sold stuff, have you? Items below lvl 60 sell just fine, actually. I've sold tons of rares from my under-60 dungeon runs. Also, getting 190k can be as easy as 1 T1 epic run...
Um, clerics don't have direct heals here so if you run off to the side of the room and get aggro, you might need to pot to survive. If you stand in the cleric circles you will normally be fine without pots...but it's better if they warn you.
Oh please, there's like one mob that is capable of that. The proportions should be adjusted for groups who do it too much. Knock off one mob? No problem. Knock off 50% of the mobs? Any mob hit launches you into the stratosphere. Entertaining AND educational!
Well, if no one spends money there won't be any uncommon assets, right? No one has uncommon assets - no problem. Also, it does not mean they're exploiters, they could have gotten an asset they didn't want and decided that selling it is the best way to recoup expenses.
It's kind of hard to have fun while not using AD at all. Problems in the game economy DO affect most people, but it remains to be shown that NW economy is in such a state.
I think the pushing should definitely be allowed since it makes sense but it should not be possible to do it with every single mob in a dungeon, that's just silly. Maybe mobs should get this ability too...one hit and you're off the cliff...but only use it if the group they're against is doing the same. Let's see how much…
It's not as easy as that. This is the problem with abstractions, it seems easy but in the code they might have to add a lot of validators, maybe even a validation system if they don't have one. I also wouldn't be surprised if they fixed the filters while they're at it...
Are you a developer? No? Then shut up. Looks like you know nothing about development, project cycles, bug fixes and code complexity. When in doubt always assume things are harder than you imagine in your head.
OK, so semi-confirmed. Ran a few more dungeons last night and all of them had Bind-on-acquire for rares/epics you get from Need rolls. I'm not sure why this was ninja-patched in (since I couldn't see it in the patch notes) but seems like useful info to give your group-mates.
It should not be too hard to just freeze the AH. I'm not sure why they considered the auctions active when...surprise...the AH is not accessible to users. The problem is that they started sending the items/AD out now...and that's much harder to reverse and would probably require some kind of rollback (which is unlikely to…
