    Duke Blacke Shouts are back to shouting every little thing, including perfect tokens.

    Tested aggro increase function in TT. Currently still is broken, as I'm unable to keep aggro from 5aps.

    I'll enquirer Frankie about it tonight.
    Duke Shout's are back, full power, too! Logged into the game for two minutes to check the teleporting map for wide screen fix and low and behold I was swarmed by announcements of people getting token this, lobster that. Frankie, we'll have to chat about that tonight. b:infuriated

    This isn't the first time this happens, and the last time was meant to be exactly that - the last time it happens. Duke Shouts were never to be added to the game again, as far as I can recall.

    I believe the Duke shouts are some kind of advertising.

    If ppl see the red chat they say wow so much items let's try to buy some packs and see how it's going

    That is in fact the reason they added it, along with making announcements about current events and content. However, several times in the past the community has stressed that to the volume of the shouts, as in their frequency - disturbs them and interrupts them from playing the game and communicating with their factions, friends and so on. So they were once again removed, with the notion that this time it's for good.

    Okay, was completely wrong. Not BP, but the demon Blood Bath for Barb's description has been fixed. It used to say it gives crit (which it didn't), but now it clearly states it gives accuracy.

    At a guess, you did it in the Safezone? We couldnt, we were half way to Silverfrost. Got that thing like in the chapel / cube where you cant cast any skills.

    Orrrr it could be im on a PvP server.

    Patch Notes Version 560
    Released August 31, 2011


    Duke Blacke
    Duke Blacke's shouts have been updated to reflect new content.

    PWI was so pleasent to play these last few weeks with minimal spam. You could have and hold a decent conversation, get instructions from your squad/faction mates in an instance or TW. Damn it was nice. Now some Idiot in marketing decided once again to spam the hell out of all the convo channels interffering in our conversations, causing us to miss PM's and they think this is a good thing. Thinking that players like myself will run out and but 10,000 packs because someone else got a token of this or that.

    If you boys in Marketing had any brains you give us players 1 channel where we can turn off that spam and enjoy our in-game conversations instead of frustratimg the hell out of us who spend when we decide to spend. Spam does not encourage us who follow a budget. Our budget deems when and how much we spend.

    So sad, it was so nice while the quiet lasted.

    ~Duke spam sad-rage~

    If you are finished sad-raging, I believe I can explain what happened. The Chinese server has these announcements because fewer people buy their version of packs, and when they do, they advertise with the announcement. When it's brought over to our version, they don't think anything of it, and our marketing people don't catch it right away. Suddenly, Duke begins spamming WC all over again. The GMs notice player displeasure, and get it removed as soon as possible.

    Long story short, it's not an issue in China because people aren't crazy about their packs like PWI players are.

    Keep in mind Kritty is not a GM and cannot speak with authority on the matter of developer intent unless he has a source (which he may well have).

    Did they add that aggro buff to anything? Anyone know?

    If PWE knows that this happens when this is brought over from the Chinesse version, shouldn't they actually LOOK FOR IT before patching so they can fix it BEFORE players complain?

    Kinda feels like PWE is pushing it until they stop getting player complaints, and so they can use it as one more way to incite gambling... Dirty tricks.
