  • I agree the companion upgrades are overpriced but they really are an optional part of the game. They are not really that usefull (even the purple ones). The amount of cash on the market just jumped with the introduction of the blue drops (for gold) and the salvager and new 8K daily (for AD). I do not agree that the…
  • Your suggestions are like any botter dream comming true ... Wouldnt you have a couple bots ? ;) If you reward other things than winning or losing in a match you will have people playing for those secondary objectives that are often at odds with victory. Kill pts is already a bad idea by chance its so small it really is…
  • Soothing light is pretty bad indeed. Its more to heal up someone low in between fights when you can spare the divinity. I would suggest you Divine forgemaster on one of melee mobs on the CW. Keep the AS for the Melee. Forgemaster is pretty much you best targeted heal if someone is not getting swarmed by minions. Of course…
  • 1. If you remove horse then everyone will reroll rogue or GWF for the unfair speed advantage. Horses need to stay they just need to be normalized in PVP to the lowest speed that beats a player speed. 2. You get point defending but only if you are defending ... Games with pts for afking at nodes have an even harder time…
  • I would make an alternate suggestion that should in part solve the speed run problem ... have Dungeon Delve Chest limited to one by event. Could also limit runs of Delzoun Crypt to one by event ... That would increase the pleasure of 80% of the people running dungeons by killing that trend. Sometime people forget this is a…
  • I use it in fights where you need to prevent mobs from using abilities quick... AS often let mobs complete their attacks which may be disastrous while OF will interrupt most AE (red spots) attacks as well as many "normal" attacks. I often alternate between them to augment dmg and CC (OF is better CC than AS) i use AS to…
  • Would not surprise me that they have a patch in that every so many attempts the system actually correct your odds if you are beating the odds by generating those strings of failures.
  • Key chests have the same behaviour as the packs... You expect to get as many Nightmare as the other green items ? I tell you out of 10 keys you will not get any epic in average and you might not even get something blue ... The average coffer will give 2 enchantments rank 5 which are pretty much worth nothing ... You may…
  • The changes to the cleric were 2-fold 1) reduced healing of AS 2) reduced aggro generated by heals. The result of that is cleric can now actually devote their time to healing others instead of saving their skin. They also need to load more than a single healing spell to do their job. From what i have seen from the one…
  • I think next week event might be the reason they added invisible walls in Protector enclave.
  • Thing is captcha is easy to recognise in a web page or a form as it is always at the same place, but in a 3d world you have deal with other players present with various positions on the screen, the camera angle, possible sky animations, all of these are processed instantaneously by a player but for a bot it takes advanced…
  • I think everyone agree bots are annoying... as are afkers. I expect the changes they make to diminish a bit the bot problem but i doubt, unless all reward are removed, bots will be gone. I would take an original approach in mmos to the bot problem ... capchas ... When you spawn in the BG bin you are presented 3 floating…
  • It really is a tricky thing ... My first reaction to the question was lets get replacement any place in the dungeon then it does not seem fair to the newcomer if he join a disbanding party. I agree with the view that the priority is not punishment, but alleviating the player that get stranded in the middle of a dungeon. So…
  • I think most people agree that each tenebrous should not proc more than once each x seconds. If at least that is fixed this would give us an idea if they are OP or just OK. People that use tenebrous know that they can surpass the ICD, with either flurry, dots or fast attacks. Rogues "abusing" tenebrous will just stealth…
  • These hugely one sided matches are mostly due to afkers and leavers.The real solution is to fix the source of the problem not make it so the game revolve around it. The surrender button would be to recognize we cant figure a way do make a decent matchmaking system and deal adequately with afkers and leavers.
  • With 194 tries you are pretty much hitting assymptotic behaviour. Their random is flawed somehow. This is the same for skill kits. You often get succession of 5+ failure which are very unlikely given the advertised rates of success. The most suspect part is that failure of kits rarely come by singleton which should be the…
  • I think oppressor was meant to be PVP-centric. It sadly overestimates the CC value of chill (snare) and movement (might get a boost from increasing wizard stamina consumption. With the nerf to the other trees maybe people will revisit oppressor.
  • I think one of the elements that are the most critical to this discussion is to ensure that losing players that try get rewarded while trying to weed out afkers. One way to deal with the problem that would most likely kill afk farming in time would be to allocate fixed Glory pool for each match to be split among the 2…
  • ... and instead of having afk farming you would get insta farming ...? This option would kill PVP outright. Games that have this option, PVP becomes a first blow thing. Players cut their loss as soon as they fall behind and dont try to overcome deficit during a game. Makes for the most annoying matches with the most…
  • I would add a suggestion for a feat to replace Shatter Strike since it is a pretty terrible feat compared to the 2 other trees. I would have that feat make Conduit of Ice mastery by default. Conduit of ice is chill bread and butter but having to use it as Mastery kills ice best dps tool Chill strike ... So haveing Conduit…
  • gautlgrym will be 3 distinct events... you dont need to participate to all. guild is only so they know on which side to assign you since you could possibly just do the dungeon or the pvp. Guild only is to tag a price on faction selection so people dont flip allegiance each run depending on who wins. You can still have a…
  • I think the developpers failed at communicating clearly what Gauntlgrym was going to be. People are shooting premade idea around and semi-informed stuff that would benefit from clarification. From what i understand, the Gauntlgrym events (plural here) will introduce new rewards both for PVE and PVPers. The Tier may be…
  • If it is as in close Beta, Gautlgrym will be split in 3 event with each their own queue. One for the PVE part one for the PVP part and one for the dungeon part. You might have been aware that there is hole in the current event calendars. Those are the spots that are reserved to Gautlgrym events.
  • People dont hate PVPers, they dislike foulmouthed people, trolls and other wild animals ... On topic now ... I am glad they are rebalancing stuff, but i must agree the way they bring this about make me cringe. Even with a free respec it will cost people to adjust. Since we cant have all powers at full most people opted…
  • Yeah this is not great but as the previous person said you can walk around it ... If you die at the end you still get the choice of asking for help or respawning ... just press shift-2 for respawn immediately and wait for your character to be resed before exiting.
  • All the proposal so far are much too down to earth in my eyes ... i see a 74 day deadline as something giving ample time to develop new features. 1. Permit foundry creators to design/create competitive PVP/PVE maps / mini games. One of the downside of the foundry is that the quests have little replay value. Competitive…
  • Yeah i think there seem to be a kink in their algorythm. Failure tend to be in streaks which should be rare given there is a much higher chance of success than failure. The should get semi rarely streaks of 2, streaks of 3 pretty rarely and so on ... i often get streaks of 4-5 failures which would with 0.75 success rate…
  • In PVE groups, the kick is necessary to get the right classes ... Since kick is bugged and prevent the person from joining an instance through Q its pretty annoying. I have run many instances and never saw any one being kicked past the entrance. Since its a death sentence to the run, the person doing so must have had a…
  • Here is a few element from my experience as a CW : General: Someone spoke of removing mount i would suggest normalizing their speed ... Everyone can pay for a mount at 60 and it really give some rythm to the games, but i must admit it gives an unfair advantage to people that have a fast mount. CW Due to the very limited…
  • The game have always been intensive on hardware...even before this patch. My computer was actually overheating which never happen for any game at any setting so far (pretty recent machine). I throught at first it was the graphics (it was at high) so i turned them down. I figure it wasnt that since even at medium (its ugly)…
