I quit actively playing after the leadership changes. Honestly i do want to come back, i just can't bring myself to it. Some of the reasons others have already posted. Was easier to gear back when dungeons dropped t2 gear you can sell, etc. Infact right now my account is sitting on a nest egg of diamonds, possibly enough…
Neverwinter Nights was like that, and it was awesome. tri-classing gave so many possibilities, that despite nwn being an antiquated game, it kept me playing for years.
I think you are missing a major point here... Dungeon Masters are usually motivated for a a love of the game. Cryptic devs are motivated by them cartoon dollar signs covering their eyes. Very different, and worlds apart.
no where in there did i state thats its a guaranteed mount/artifact per 10 keys. i can remember buying a 10 stack and at least getting an artifact/mount. meaning first attempt: buy 10 keys=get a mount, second attempt: get 10 keys= get 1 or 2 tarmalune tradebar jackpots/rhix AD consumables. attempt 3: get 10 keys= get only…
this answer does not surprise me, but this is also in contrast to not only other people saying they are seeing less, the many topics created stating they are less, and even my own experience that they are less in number than before. That coupled with the fact that you get more "HAMSTER blue boxes" from them like dated…
I'd be enthusiastic about this, had it not been for scotts post about the initial changes to dungeon runs and skirmishes and pvp, the rewards and the amounts of said rewards being different on live rather than what was posted. I'll believe when i see it, i'll be enthusiastic about it when i believe it. for me its just log…
Goatshark's statement here is a bit of a fallacy to begin with. Without reference to relatives like time and other factors, we are already given the assumption that players will be making more AD in a given day. As it is, this is not true. In the future we are not even certain of other changes, diamond sinks, bugged…
I was gonna start my own topic, but you beat me to it is this. Along with this vastly disappointing decision they have made. I noticed that the game launcher highlights: "Stronghold Seige: War is Here!!" really.... now where is this headline? "Leadership Changes : Roflcopter At Your Source of Diamonds!!" You really think…
your math is considering you get the max reward for the 7200 cap, for dungeons its 750 for skirmishes its 500, min for dungeons is 150 and skirmishes is 50. so you may be looking at more than 10+ runs just to reach that 7200 cap. and i'm not sure if they clarified it or not, but is that 7200 cap shared with skirmishes or…
its double RP right now, i could log on and take advantage of this. Instead i'm eyeballing other games on Steam.... i still have artifacts in blue, and tons of RP in my bank and g-bank. i've ceased all other activity until this is settled.
Still not enough. I'm pretty sure the prior dev team considered taking our diamonds out of leadership and they came to the same conclusion that everyone else has stated. Leadership farming has been factored into every facet of the game that either requires diamonds or zen. everything from RP geenration, to artifacts, even…
well, one bad decision after another will do that. Not listening to the player base will do that. Making sweeping drastic changes, obviously will do that. I will say this, I've played several games over the years. And each has their own "meta-game" or "economic climate", whatever you call it. Messing with that, as smarter…
This needs to be done aswell, i had some left over waukeen purses on an alt. opened some and got: 725 Rough AD! top i think is 8k... wow 725..... a single mining claim coins mark of gratitude (i found this ironic most of all) I think they way they worked it so the lower end of the rng table has a much higher chance to drop…
We are talking about "Rough" AD right? i think it already takes forever just to process just 200k. I think a good solution to the economy would be to convert everything to rough AD. Think about them orange mounts on AH going for 13mil. you get your 13mil, but you gotta refine it all if it was rough AD instead of straight…
This is a really good point, I stopped playing shortly after temple of tiamat came out. When i returned no Neverember Dailies, and Rix went from a list of 6-7 dailies down to only 4? Just this recent Waukeen event seemed pretty dismal. I recall the first waukeen event was loaded with opportunities to make diamonds. Short…
If you want to try it out, i run "Red Lantern Corp". We're a small guild. started off as a storage guild for me and my wife. Despite the name we recruit people with the message of being considerate and respectful of each other and to try to help each other out with quests. I'm on in the later evenings/weekends and usually…
Sorry had to point this out because its just to lol for me: your comparison to table top d and d is inaccurate. table top d and doesn't have pre programmed hostile ai's that react in various ways and doesn't have timers for simulated events which utilize said ai's. i'm pretty sure there are other differences but those are…
this makes the most sense so far. it really doesn't make a huge difference from a fun stand point. but if your a number cruncher and want the best it may bother you. i've always looked at t2 and t3 gear, while just a bit more stats, the amount of effort to get t3 upgrades to armor is something i won't actively pursue. its…
Info or link on how underdark will improve solo play? for all you know they'll make the gear just a little bit under in stats compared to strongholds gear. I don't like to build on assumptions, and so far the only verified information is stronghold gear is bis. and lol at "it will only be 3 months or so". Summer vacation…
There was an actual post asking if they are trying to alienate their players. A lot of people think they are but not on purpose. As for soloing the game, i also solo. its one of the things that initially drew me to the game a few years ago. has it gradually become solo unfriendly? i would say so. pre strongholds bis gear…
1. if you didn't mean to be rude why did you call it a "mis" guide? 2. mispelled "flwas", its irony that your word "flaws" is flawed 3. dread ring boons are there, don't know what you are talking about 4. he explained his choice in companions, even diagotsu chose a tank companion over ioune stone for his build. if your…
