Yeah seriously, you can stack the damage only to crazy levels if you stop attacking and run around (and can survive), doing nothing while it ticks. It is far far FAR less DPS than the Lost set. It is higher than the Black Ice, but that is really because that set needs to be brought in line with the current Mod. Seriously,…
The person who placed second and got the only silver donated his amount in the first few seconds of the event and never actually gathered anything in PE. I placed first and got bronze. I only deposited what I picked up in the event time and participated through the whole thing.
I've beat eCC legit. That being said, I have a full Lathandar's set and a teal DC Sigil and full Rank 9s. The original OP (congrats to the win) beat it with a full teal Lost set. All other artifacts teal and orange main/OH. That's either years playing to set up a farm or it's a cash infusion. Neither is wrong, but it does…
Sure, I can. I do it all the time. Nothing about being Righteous means you can't heal, it just means you don't save up excess healing as a Gift of Faith. There's nothing that prevents any feat path of DC from being a good healer in a group, since you can slot any spells you like.
The hardest thing for us is that your Mod 5 will always be substantially different from our Mod 5, as in ours a lot of people had been around and were rocking pretty high enchantments and Devoted Cleric sigils by then. As for your Guild, if they honestly need you to run Knight's Valor in Draco, they are not skilled/geared…
I don't use Astral Seal. Now how do you look? Seriously, cupcake. If ppl spent less time frothing at the mouth in zone chat, they'd get more dragons. And I've gotten 7-8 dragons per run where it's been used. 40 ppl = lag.
You had zero lag running Heralds in Mod 5? ;) I've had plenty of screen crawling lag with zero Astral Seal being used. 40 people = lag. PS. I get more than one dragon per run when Astral Seal gets used.
This will do nothing to stop the botters- who will just make more accounts and more bots to compensate. This ONLY affects legit players who try to earn RP by actually playing content. This will ONLY make the gulf between players who use bots and players who do not use bots wider. It punishes people who don't use bot…
Yeah, I agree with the proposal. If you want to kick, you need to own your action and be open about your reasons. Not only should you receive a report after the vote kick goes through so you can block the people involved, but you should see that it is going on when it does. While removing the power to kick from party…
You can partially respect Feats and Boons with AD, there is a button at the bottom of your screen on the Feat page for that. Or you can buy a respect token from the Zen market. If you don't want to spend $ for the Zen, use the Astral Diamond Exchange. It's still 500 AD per Zen and takes about a week to change over.
Avatar of the Divine does not a DPS DC make. The real problem with the Righteous path right now is that your damage is dependent on your critical rate. In the space of one day my crit dropped from 40% to 20% and that has made a huge difference. People are screaming because they are dying. Good! The player base, even the…
Antiquated refers to a version of the Knight Captain's set that was available pre-60, that leveled with your character. I obtained my set during beta, two years ago. They were always named Antiquated. I haven't yet decided which end game set (level 70) will be worth the investment for my GF. I started leveling towards 70…
A lack of set bonuses takes a lot of the fun out of things for PvE players, since it certainly takes a lot of the effort out of running dungeons. The large problems with set bonuses have been 1. flat out don't work 2. made useless by needless ICD 3. not a party benefit. I'm not to 70 yet on test, but TBH you haven't waved…
I have that feat as a Tactician. It does work. However, it will not interrupt targets that are immune to being interrupted, bosses and Dragonwings who have entered their spin attack. One thing to remember is that an interrupt in itself is not a stun, and does not send the enemy's encounter onto cooldown. So after a second…
I'm almost always lead, but I figured it was part of being Founder. The few times I'm not, I know that player is a Founder as well. Though when the team loads out, the newest player gets the lead.
Epic Fail. Seriously, I've just spent hours leveling a character I couldn't buy the upgrades on because she wasn't 60 and they have vanished when I was like level 59?? Wish I had waited to buy that zen, cause I wouldn't be buying it now. Not that anyone cares if we are happy or not. :mad:
You can't confirm it without some sort of evidence. Did you get this on ACT? Thanks to some guildmates (Win or Loose We Booze) and some peeps from Lady Vega's 19k Channel for Tiamat, I parsed a run of normal SoT's boss fight. For the first third I didn't fight so none of my DC's debuffs were on. For the second third I did…
I would gather this comes from the old High Prophet bug, where your debuff affected allies as well. That got fixed ages ago, but you'll be surprised how many people will believe that till this game closes down. At any rate.... my DPS DC Paingiver farms SoT and ESoT all the time, zero kicks. Keep your Paingiver. Stop using…
This is a different chart from ACT, showing how much the Tempt procced Soul Bond on me over the whole fight. It's an almost accurate map of the lag I experienced for the whole fight. On to the second lag spike, which contrasts to the fight at Mid. During the first time period, the Tempt also dealt damage (but did not seem…
jazzfong, I don't think you understood me, in the end. I'm not talking about a sample of PVP DCs in winning instances, but a predominant trend of PVP DCs in failed instances. And PVP DCs are not alone in this trend of wearing in their PVP gear. When asked why, of those who replied, they would say that their damage is…
The point was to show the problem inflated GS is when you are trying to accurately predict DPS output. Looking at their gear alone, far too many people would pick the 21k TR over the 15k TR, and in fact there's a great deal of pressure for people under 16k GS to not go into Tiamat at all. But all the gear in the world, an…
The lack of AP gain is strangely punitive towards non-DPS Clerics in PvE, for whom using that Daily is almost the only useful group contribution they can make outside of gear. Most of these DCs do only about 1.5- 2.5 million in damage in Tiamat, and that's less than the average GF. I've been thinking a lot about this…
Look. Let's be BRUTALLY HONEST for a moment. This has been the party line for forever. Yet it has lead to the very things you claim to be correcting. I remember when I build a GF Tactician Build that could essentially function as a CW in Malabog's Castle. That enabled parties to take fewer CWs into parties and run a more…
http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?536101-13k-Tactician-Guardian-Fighter-quot-Missionary-quot-Build-for-PVE This is the Tactician's Build I created for speed running Malabog's Castle. Some of it is out dated due to nerfs to the class that occurred when Dread Ring was released, but aside from the alternation of…
I suppose in the end, it depends on what you mean by "solo PvE" content. If you are just looking to go in, join a few Minor/Major Epic events, run some Dailies, do some Seasonal Events and Call-to-Arms, you really don't need much. The absolute must have over any kind of build will be a soul-forged. That aside, I really…
There's a real motivation to "twink" in the Dominion Champion and Headhunter titles. But running into twinks existed even back in beta. I remember all too well the first time I met a premade at 30-40 in all Rank 10s. Unknowns and good players from large PvP Guilds do it, though I'd say there's more of the later than the…
1. Rework Refinement System: It should reward playtime. After 60, completing a level 60 quest should give a refinement Star, worth 5x a Black Opal. (Sharandar, DR, IWD, WoD.) Also, on 2x Refinement Weekends, create a special vendor who will allow people to transfer ALL outdated RP given to one Artifact to another. One of…
If I had to point to any one thing that has had the most detrimental effect to PvP, that would be allowing people below level 60 to slot their Perfect Weapon Enchantments. Some of that imbalance has been fixed by putting farmable blue weapon gear on the dragon in Neverdeath, but that still presupposes that you have a…
