Re: new even Lor'Tac -Harbingers of Corruption

Well, I guess you could say that if someone has the first 4 parts, they can directly choose what else to get, albeit for Ander, so as not to risk the random factor futher. But yeah, the set is pretty meh... makes sense for a merchant series of uniques (just that this one has bonuses and part of it is attainable through an event).

Of course it's unfinished... it's supposed to be some kind of a teaser for the new continent. As for the solo-only part, I'm not too fond of it either... but then again, it's so easy that it doesn't matter.

It's not wrong, and for a very simple reason: DKs only have one type of offhand, while all the other classes have two.

 

Please where do i take my tablet fragments to change into treasure chests.thanks

 

u will able to change for unique items in Lor'Tac, when the expansion will be released.

 

Ok wanted to clear so points up with info given via twitch. First info from just plan sight. All armor that scales have a rang of stats. This armor has a set stat. Unless there is some odd item I have as of yet not seen all items with set stats are also set levels. Lastly Yaltepetl is not the only city in the expansion but it is the first.

 

I will sell all my tablets for gold ... the gold is more appreciated than a few GoPs after all.

 

Items are worthless, dont see a need to farm tablets for useless equipment. When 155 be released, we need just to wait for new karabosa set and gnob for new 2rings+ amulet set ( if they update the old one ) and thats it.

 

But those rings + amulet are good as much as these 4 new unique items .

 

I dont agree with you, rings+amulet is great set, for balanced character with good offense and defense rings+amulet is fantastic. My DK will be 25% stronger with that set.

 

Now, I know that the items offered in the chests are pretty average, but as a F2P without money to blow or powerful friends to piggyback, I'm resorted to farming these things. The way I brain it, these uniques must melt for a lot, so even if I'm getting duplicates I'll still be able to make use of them.

For those who are also farming, what are your methods/routines? In my experience (after 1800 fragments), the easiest way seems to be farming one of the gates in Abyss of Time near the exits, over and over, then jumping to Hagastove Grotto.

If you have premium, however, you can just use the travel stone in Abyss of Time to refresh the map, and also create a "buffer" every time you enter dungeon, reducing cost to 9 andermagic.

I can farm about 6 andermagic per minute, which is 180/30 mins. 180 fragments gives 20 runs, which is about enough for one chest, every hour. (If you can do that for an hour straight, kudos to you)

An alternative route would be doing the Gleaming Mountains and rushing to the two gates close to each other, giving you 12 fragments per run, but the efficiency of that method depends on you not getting knocked off your mount by the dwarf choppers.

As to the second part of this post, I'd like to ask if any of the "big testers" on the TS bothered to note the experience needed for each level, from 45 to 50. I can't find information regarding that anywhere

 

All, I will ask some question..
1. If I now level 23 and finish collect 225 Tablet Fragments..can I exchange next time if my level 46?
2. If this event is end the NPC Yaltepetl is whether it will be removed or eliminated?
3. If I open Toltact Treasure Chest will get random equipment?

Thanks before

 

I start in Andrasksch and just run into gleaming mounting my DK. Path is mostly a counterclockwise semicircle path, I only stop for about 4 or 5 big mobs together as well as as the 2 red circle bosses. Kill 18 corrupted warriors along the path as well open a bunch shabby chests. The random location red boss (some kind of junk tosser) spawns along the corrupted ander warrior path and the final red circle boss (Coubt something or another, a buffed up longhelm) is just past the final batch of warriors.

This path is relatively linear, and gives me lockpicks, some ander, some gems, a decent amount of realm frags (I had virtually no realm frags when the tablet frag farming started) and some glyphs. This has gotten me 2030 tablet frags, and about 225 or 230 realm frags in about 130~135 runs.

With my dwarf, I do either the above or do a Temple outer loop or Temple mostly complete run, as my weak dwarf has a lot of realm frags but needs more glyphs. I think I have about 600 tablet frags on my dwarf.

I had not planned to do as many runs with my dwarf but with 150% boost on 2H guns, that event gun is appealing and I might devote more efforts to giving myself more chances on my relatively weaker dwarf.

As i'm getting 3 extra entry frags per run, I probably will shift to shorter runs as we get closer to the event end.

 

Here's the video for those who are curious about the set. They are obtainable with anderments at a low price of range between 600-2400 (All 9 pieces)

Video time: 2:50-3:15

DragonKnight
Weapon: 2400 Anderments (2h)
Weapon: 1200 Anderments (1h)
Shield: 1200 Anderments
Body: 900 Anderments
Boot: 600 Anderments
Shoulder: 600 Anderments
Head: 750 Anderments
Glove: 750 Anderments

Total price of anderments with 1h + Shield or 2h + Armors = 6000 Anderments

So.. let say you obtained all 4 pieces from the chest, which cost up to 4650 anderments. The rest is a piece of cake (1350 Anderments). Except one thing, price may be change...... so.. yeah.. that's bout it. Enjoy fellas.

 

Do the event items have any GOP value?

 

Here's a stupid question: What does one do with the Lor'tak tablet fragments? The in-game says to collect them and trade them in at a location that isn't on the map. So.... EDIT ? If the area isn't ready yet, can the game just say that in the event description? For example, hey collect this stuff cause you'll be able to use it soon. As it stands, the plain language of the event description is useless . So... yeah. Spending 3 hours on the forum didn't help because it's a mess, like any forum.

 

The location is not available now and only becomes available later in the expansion. For now, just build up fragments, and when the expansion comes, trade in tablets for gear. The gear requires level 46, so you can't use it anyway.

Next time, you can check the Event FAQ subforum or check the wiki.

 

Woops sorry fellas. There suppose to be 8 pieces. (Not 9)

I highly doubt these items will be able to be melt, because there should be a melting value whenever the item are reward, so my guess is.. nope. Or.. maybe we'll get anderments instead of GoP? (I highly doubt this as well..)

A good example would be any Morti Ring/End of Time weapon quests. It shown the melting value from the reward and judging from the item icon from the event; which there is no melting value. I don't think these set are even melt-able, but if it did... I do imagine all players will be getting lv50 items (upgraded) less than a day/week?

Though, this set is pretty decent or what-not to the newcomer who will be reaching lv.45+.

 

Thanks....... Tried checking both the forum and the wiki, neither were helpful. It seems a simply in-game statement would be the most effective way to communicate game play info.
BTW, the event count down went from 2 days left to 16 days left???? Extension of the event or post-poned expansion?

 

I logged in today and discovered the date for the Lor'Tac event had been pushed forward 2 weeks. I looked in the forum a bit. Why can I find no explanation or discussion? Did I miss something somewhere? I admit I may have some cognitive issues as I'm over 70 but I have read the forums all I can with still no idea what is going on. Could it be you guys are running full speed ahead trying to get this out and still have no idea what date it will appear? I love this game. I hate not knowing.

 

um...I logged in today to find this:



please tell me this is an error
(I have checked my time zone)

im playing on tegan, btw
