What's Hellfire Bulette?! O.o I want one!!!
Hallelujah. Fingers crossed that it works.
I dont know if drop rate is very low or my luck i pretty bad .
But this thing for sure is getting in my nerv and i dont like it specially this coming mod.
I been playing this game for almost five years and trying to build my toons with sweat and blood and this what we have to get .
I feel we are being force to accept everytime change like this.
Any of my comments not posted in orange are based on my own personal opinion and not official.
Any messages written in orange are official moderation messages. Signature images are now fixed!
HOWERVER, Changing the internal cooldown to 10 seconds is a bit much. It should not be more than 3 - 5 seconds cooldown. Why? With a 10 second cooldown this item cannot contend with Mane of the Manticore.
You have killed the Chitter fang and raised the value of Manes x 10.
Manes of the manticore cooldown is 30 seconds.
Thus potentially you can use to every 30 seconds if your recovery is high enough.
Let's assume you have 150,000 hp... this means you can do 75,000 damage bonus every 30 seconds.
(manes does 50% total hp as damage)
Now back to the nerfed Chitter Fang and the 10 second cooldown.
With the same assumed hit points (hp) of 150,000 you will do a bonus 7,500 every 10 seconds
Multiply that x3 to equal the total number of seconds of manes of manticore and you are at a maximum damage of 22,500.
75,000 > 22,500 by far.
Not a good move at all...
Other than that:
New home page looks great! Thanks. Whoever did the redesign deserves treats.
"The White Owlbear mount is now Bound to Account from all sources." This is the most disgraceful fix ever and there's been quite some competition. Lazy, doing the easy fix rather than the right one.
I quite deliberately spent extra real money to get an unbound one (as SPECIFICALLY advertised on the promotion) which I intended to give to a friend once he returned to the game after getting the money to rebuild his PC which had died. He ended up being out of the game for a loooong time, and by the time he came back it was suddenly bound. Changing this to bound account doesn't help, I have 2 purple mounts on every character (founder and zen) and a third on any that want it (siege) so the owlbear is utterly useless to me.
@nitocris83 this is basically false advertising and fraud, fix this properly and give those of us who spent real money on this what we paid for.
Edit, I've just found the other thread with details that you can file a ticket and get the bind status changed back. REALLY needed a link to it in the patch notes.
[5/17 9:02] [Combat (Self)] Your Manticore's Mane Bite deals 21706 (78252) Lightning Damage to Çrumb.
still double procs... up to 5 times in a row...
The way companions acquire targets has been reworked on a large scale to hopefully reduce the occurrences of them running off and starting fights.
I can't really see a change in behaviour with for example Faithful Initiate, sometimes she goes straight into melee range vs. enemies especially "bosses", other times she runs away from rather weak enemies like a headless chicken, while attracting more enemies to the fight allready going on.
This makes no sense, since her abilities seem to have a rather decent range...
