  • That's the default color. I have a soul forge in it, so I might have snapped a picture when it was pulsing and made it look darker.
  • Recovery also increases ap gen.
  • In a couple months the whole economy will settle out and nobody will hardly remember anything about the exploits; especially if Cryptic does a proper job of banning the right people and removing the items and AD accumulated in offending accounts. As for it being Pay to Win? Yep, it is. It's also Play to Win, in that you…
  • Precisely. If a game came out that mirrored EQ1 in all things except modern updated graphics... it would be absolutely demolished by the community for being an utter piece of trash. It's kinda like going back and watching some of the cartoons you loved as a kid... they seem amazing in your memory, but man are they bad when…
  • That's how Cryptic's game's are designed. The same thing happens in both CO and STO and it's been like that for years. Pretty much everyone Needs on everything and then you sell stuff on the AH and buy whatever you want w/ the money. They certainly understood that when designing this system. As for the greed/need thing? I…
  • They want to collapse the shards into one, not open new ones and further split the user base. Your suggestion would ultimately hurt the game more in the long run.
  • Shortly after having DBM tell you exactly what to do in scripted encounters somehow managed to generate 12 million subscribers
  • Nothing's perfect, but its better than a wipe that would generate tremendous bad press and ill-will
  • They just need to ban all the accounts(and associated accounts where people may have laundered AD/items to) that exploited and do their best to seize items/AD that where a result of exploitation WITHOUT affecting people that innocently bought it off the AH.
  • Diablo 2 had the same system, yor just did it through a trading channel instead of an AH. Nobody cared. Diablo 3s problem was an uninspired and boring loot(stats) system, a terrible launch, and legendaries that where <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> at launch. At least that's why I quit playing.
  • Why? Because that's what wow taught you? This is a different game, everything is BoE and can be traded for astral diamonds. If you need on my rogue gear, and I need in your Wizard gear... And then we essentially trade that gear by monetizing it on the AH and buying each others drops... I don't see the issue. Everyone wins.…
  • Why? What's the difference? Your just transferring luck from one thing (boss drops) to another (rolls). The difference is that it's a fair system that rewards everyone equally, and not just the people that need gear.
  • I think people are too wrapped up in the mindset that drops are the only way of getting items. Roll need on stuff, sell it, buy what you really need off the AH. This is how STO has functioned for years and the system is fine... Outside of people that just rail against utilizing the need/greed system in any other way than…
  • He's probably exploiting a particular boss and I imagine he'll either get his account banned or have all his AD and purchases confiscated. Financially it doesn't make sense for Cryptic to not come down hard on the players doing this. Just be ready for the wave of QQ when I happens and people get pissy about getting…
  • Here is the thing. Getting the top tier gear is 99.9% about being a decent player and playing with other good players. The game isn't balanced on a razors edge in the way that players need the best gear to beat content. A team full of good players at the minimum gear score will do just fine. On top of that, the GS…
  • Ahahah, you haven't played them then I take it? Wildstar is your best bet. Neverwinter kicks the **** out of the other two.
  • I could do without the goofy facemask on the helm...
  • Was that Kripp? I hope they either ban there accounts or confiscate all items and AD. I hate when players knowing exploit something like that and get away with it.
  • I agree with everything you said.
  • I'd rather they fix the cleric aggro and shield and see where we are from there. Otherwise you end up with a bunch of waffling nerfs and buffs that may or may not be necessary. I most think encounters need to be rebalanced at the higher end around the idea of there being only one astral shield.
  • How did you test it?
  • Have you done any of the T2 content? Trying to keep up the debuff on the boss with the constant AoEs while also not clipping your flurries and significantly hurting your own DPS is significantly easier said than done. If your whole goal is just keeping up the debuff, then I guess that would be easy... But what's the point…
  • We're specifically talking about endgame.
  • I was a 54g when I hit 60. I'm at 40g now and it keeps going down. Sooner or later ill have to start buying ID scrolls with AD so I can vendor gear for more gold and stay in the green.
  • On boss fights, I'd agree. But on anything that's able to be CCed, dazing will increase uptime and allow you to use flurry unfettered, it'd also instant at the end of a stealth cycle. Flurry is your bread and butter in an executioner build.... your goal should always be to maximize the amount of time you can flurry. You…
  • Yes, taking damage will reduce your stealth bar while stealthed. The harder you are hit, the more of your stealth bar you lose. There is a passive you can slot that reduces the effect that taking damage has on your stealth time, called tenacious concealment. At 3 points it reduces stealth lost to damage by 90% While not…
  • Considering how crit synergistic a executions build is, I doubt cha comes out in front of dex
  • That fight just requires that everyone kill his adds as quickly as possible as soon as they spawn. Even my TR will pull out some AoE and CC on that boss and help focus adds.
  • My mistake, always confuse the two. Thanks.
  • I'm going to clue you I'm on something that you might have missed. You can sell items that drop in dungeons for ADs on the AH, then you can buy those 1% enchants on the AH with ADs. I've made millions of AD this way without spending a dime. You can also get the coalescent wards by using the 7 day ardent coin reward and…
