They don't have much incentive to fix this when it drives people to use the AH instead where they are able to take 10% to 12.5% of the AD out of circulation for each transaction. So, it is easy to see how something like this could be 'accidentally' overlooked. I've seen this exact same thing in way too many games. The best…
This is also what I have heard. It's odd though, because adding 35 to 150 is obviously not a 4% increase, lol. Apparently you gain 105 stat points in total when upgrading your blue stone to epic quality. Whether or not it is worth the AD depends entirely on how geared your character is. Also a factor is whether or not you…
One CW can't keep 3 stacks of HV up permanently in an AoE situation without greatly gimping damage output. The only way to keep 3 stacks up permanently in an AoE situation is to constantly cast steal time and then teleport before the blast goes off. Thus you end up with a 3-4 sec cooldown on steal time. Repeat this…
I'm a little sad there aren't Coalescent wards coming in the new lockbox, but, I'm also glad I didn't sell mine with the false hope that their value would drop. Secondly, I'm glad you guys realized how terrible the feywild lockboxes were. Most of us are willing to spend our money for a chance at something good, but, when…
Yeah, the CW Malabog 4 piece set is absolute garbage. I've already salvaged the 3 pieces I purchased with fey seals. Mainly because I'll have enough to buy them all over again anyway. 497 seals dropped in Malabog Castle yet I've failed to win a single fragment. How about allowing us to buy a fragment that is bound with 500…
Wow, I thought this was a troll thread at first. I guess I just didn't realize how seriously people RP their characters. I have to agree with other posters suggestion that you simply ignore the name of the ability or 'roleplay' that it has a different name. You are already 'making up' a bunch of stuff that isn't in the…
I'm an experienced player but by no means an authority on this, but, to me your recovery seems higher than necessary. I'm currently running a Thaum build and my Recovery is 3400 and I don't plan to increase it by much when I craft the main hand. For one thing you have to consider diminishing returns and how much benefit…
I ran MC and didn't find the CW off-hand until 385 seals dropped from the bosses there. So, while some people get lucky and fight it right away it can take others a while. Also, I believe on Mindflayer the Ancient Talisman is somewhere around the 500k range.
I have been disconnected numerous times today. At least 3-4 that all happened while my internet connection continued to function without issue. This is VERY annoying and makes doing dungeons frequently a major pain. Please fix it before the player base gets upset and quits.
Sucks, I'm online doing a dungeon, get DC'd for no reason, then can't reconnect. Even though my internet never went down at all. It is not Arc either as I don't have it installed. Sux
Basically the recovery you gain as part of the set bonus does not count towards your 'attack' GS. Additionally, you lost 279 crit when switching to the new orb. So because of this, your attack GS drops. I'm guessing that 'dmg' does not calculate into your attack GS, but, I am not certain of that. If you want to raise your…
No, there is nothing like this. You want to get ArP as close to 2200/2530 as possible. The bosses mitigate up to 2530, but for everything but bosses 2200 will do. There is also the option of getting a couple alternate pieces of gear which you enchant for higher ArP and swapping them in on boss fights only. I tried doing…
Has any of this changed since the Feywild update and recent patches? Not sure if I'm doing things as effectively as I could be with my HV set. I'm using CoI on tab, Icy Terrain, Sudden Storm, Steal Time in most situations. Single Target is CoI on tab, Chill Strike, icy rays, ray of enfeeblement. Is that sufficient for…
Yes, I hope this bug is fixed with the utmost urgency. As it is now the build I spent the free respec on is hampered by abilities not working as described. This wouldn't be so big of an issue if I was able to spend a measly amount of in-game gold to respec. At $3 a piece though, this can really add up. Some sort of…
Sorry to post yet again, I just wanted to ask a question about how you would handle single target boss situations where hitting an add with the AOE from chilling cloud can cause problems? Primarily I'm talking about in Karrundax where groups like to jump onto the mountainous scenery and attack the boss from a 'quasi' safe…
The one issue I think you aren't considering with Recovery is that having an encounter power available sooner does you no good if you aren't able to cast it immediately. So, you might be utilizing the additional recovery on occasion, but, it is impossible to always fire off an encounter as soon as it has recharged.…
I specced this build and ran Karrundax with it a lil earlier on this evening. Took a little getting used to as I had not used it all all prior to running the dungeon which was probably a mistake. I did catch on after a little bit though and the power of SS when all the mobs are nice and bunched up is quite nice. I was very…
What is the reasoning for taking Critical Power instead of Reaper's Touch? My guess is that whenever mobs are within 20 feet, the idea is you are using Sudden Storm on them instead of your at-will powers, thus Reaper's Touch would go unused for the most part. Is this assumption correct? Is the added AP gain from Critical…
How can you split the selling value of the gear when there is no way to xfer astral diamonds between accounts? Short of paying 10% on the initial sale and then another 10% on the amount transferred to each person. It makes more sense to just let whomever wins it sell it and keep the AD. Eventually your turn to win will…
Also, the cat makes that really annoying whine sound. So for me, a little blue ball that doesn't nag the **** out of me is a much better choice. I think in the end it is more about personal preference than anything else. My personal preference is to minimize annoying animal sounds in my game. So, I didn't get the Howler…
Yeah, the howler noises and cat meow's need to be lowered in volume greatly or made MUCH MUCH less frequent. One of the most annoying things in the game is standing at the auctioneer with someone nearby on their howler mount. So you have to either mute the sound or reach over and turn it down. Turning it down causes you to…
Thanks for the thread. I'm of the opinion that the more builds we have the better. That being said, I'm still holding out a little while longer before using my free respec. Just trying to gather all the info and make the best decision possible. Again though, thank you for posting your build and how you like to play your…
It doesn't have to do with new characters as I've got the same thing on my main character whom was made approximately 3-4 weeks ago. It has something to do with the gfx engine changes they made and is apparently affecting all configurations. It does not happen in the new area apparently and since that is where most people…
Yeah, this whole thing is sickening and you are right we are really really pissed off! When you make rules, you have to follow them. Cryptic can't choose to enforce the rules one day, then turn around the next and decide not too because it is too inconvenient for them to do a rollback. I spent almost all of my free time…
