Some necessary items like gmops have a fixed cost. Its 100k ad. The other necessaries like rank 99 stacks are based on the amounts bots produced so they aren't going to budge much. Increasing the supply of ad just makes upgrading cheaper for everyone even if you see increases in the prices of stuff like mounts where there…
From beta to around the end of mod 2 the thing to do to make ad was split runs. One person sells the item the other 4 put up a portable altar for a fifth of the value and the seller buys them. You ate the auction house 10% loss but it was no big deal. If you knew a lot of good players you could have hundreds of thousands…
Pre mod 6 a rank 7 did 60% of what a rank 10 did. Now 40% of the stats are between 10 and 12. A rank 7 does 28% of what a 12 does. So you need a 10 to get back to where you were relative to bis. If you're playing an mmo progression is important, obviously. It should also be technically feasible to get to bis within a year…
Its kind of a chicken and egg problem. The pool is too small so you can't have too many restrictions and the pool is small because there haven't been any restrictions forever so people avoid it. And it was elo not item level I believe.
Being kind on an individual level is very cool for the people you encounter but the issue isn't that people can't be nice or helpful. The issue is that huge imbalances in character effectiveness are possible in matches. Some people are going to want to mitigate that by putting people on the right gear/build path but…
Its highly unlikely that every single bis player wants to smash pugs, I don't and I found it enormously tedious when I did dom a lot but lets not play a game of where if its not everyone its not happening. There are many solutions. Solo/group queue, reducing the gear gap, gear score matching, allow you to preview…
I thought they would come back sooner. Its increasingly hard to keep people with limited endgame content. There are the other reasons doing that is hard but lacking a carrot its kind of rough.
Just set up your ui thus Chatbox cropped for amusing language and character picture cropped because I don't want some dummy annoying me in game You just drag what you want to the bar Some of the icons are for things not in the game we would supposedly have to datamine to know about. Maybe if the devs didn't have them in…
They said nuffink about how out of whack everything is, if you look in the pvp alpha forum you can see some changes as regards balancing negation and other personal shield stuff before anyone overreacts you can go in there without permissions and look
This won't be even the 100th time someone has made this comment but it might be the first time time someone was able to say no it was intended to be cleared with gear of that level. Lets see you guys clear ecc with 2k item level party. Since you have so many people playing the game it should be no big deal for you right?
Ok do a video of it. I'd ask the devs to have a go but I have pretty good idea of what happens, they ignore or they fail comically for ten minutes and close the stream
Dude anyone who wants to feed on weaker toons in a gear based game is basically self identifying as a fundamentally weak person and incapable of making it in real games. That's like the saddest thing ever.
it kicks in when you get it to level 20 and 25, destroy enemy camp 1600 ad + battle elemental cultist 2000 ad *3 =10k *a lot of characters* precise rotation of tasks = plenty of ad
The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds; and the pessimist fears this is true. I really hope they succeed but I'm very used to watching them faceplant.
That's what I get for rarely looking at their blogs. That's ambitious considering what's actually on preview. Very ambitious. I bet it will be as funny as ever.
To get BIS you need you need rank 12s, 10s are the new 7s, teal artifacts, orange artifact weapon/offhand. The people complaining about the artifact weapons are the ones already have their enchants, like me, think what that looks like for a new player. stuffthatwillneverhappen.jpg
Do you have some other solution? Or if gwfs had similar ap gain would you be cool with ap generation being toned down in general. Or do you think daily spam is fine. No judgement just kind of curious. For what its worth I don't the game is balanced for dailies being used as frequently as they are and are going to be but at…
If we're going to salvage the old gear at the first opportunity its junk. If the new gear was sidegrades the old wouldn't be junk. I have upgraded elven for what its worth.
I think at present talk of long term investments is just going to get lols out of people. If that's annoying we aren't the ones who poisoned that well. If you want to do something for the new players you need to reduce the gear gap. To do that you have to make refinement points easier and gmops cheaper. Let me elaborate.…
