Announcement Ask the CMs in English

So, "Q&A" guy "Moose" finally left it in better hands and went for a CM position or are you guys adding more tasks to him so that the Q&A dept is even less efficient?

I'm dead serious.

 

Rly ...5 coins for festival? this is rly sade..its new year other gamnes give bigg rewards for players..5 coins its like 3 minutes of may play...Drakensang is game thats fooling down rly qwick..pardon may bad english...They forgot game is all about making player happy!!!there is no happiness here

 

I have no idea of what you're talking about. Are you about the green, blue and violet present trade in? That's not the way to do it.

 

Well, apparently he is talking about todays present in Soltice Cave. it was 5 coins and i also think its some kind of joke or something, considering that towards the event of the event with 1 week left they decided that 5 Phestos Coins is decent present. ok if they say so, then it must be.?!

 

Guess the 1k pink and red essence for free was bad as well?

 

no buddy. noone could say that and neither could i. in general, the presents in Soltice cave are decent. however, those coin presents(3 times i think we got coins for present) could very well be anything else. 5 coins are not worth anything, let alone be given as a gift in this stage of the event where the presents are better in general.

 

1. Those are the same rewards as last year.
2. Unlike the last year ... this year we are without our CMs
3. You have got it all wrong ... any game is out there not because they are to make players happy ... but to satisfy the general corporate greed. When the players get ripped off your income is getting higher... when your income are higher your bosses are getting happy ... when your bosses are happy you might get thrown a bone.
Capitalism is a system of the past ... we are now living in a system called corporatism.

 

I hope you will sell Phestos Coins in the last days of the event. Thanks

 

That's what they were hoping you would say......

 

Great Idea! As long as they have a happy hour for buying anders on at least one of those days

Luck be with ye,
Mikey,

According to the OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT posted by Wiley Wiggins.....updated ToC's 01Nov2016, "Pushing and Boosting are prohibited" which in the explanation states between a user "pushing" an alt account using another AND IT STATES...(please note this mods/BA's) that "pushing and boosting" between accounts of DIFFERENT USERS is prohibited. Every time a twink complaint post is made it sort of gets ignored because it is a huge problem but since it explicitly states that even between different users it is prohibited twinking should be a punishable offense. SO can we screen shot now groups and if they are comprised of gappers and twinks and may we report the players then to support for violating ToC's? With the new updated ToC's I think if DSO does NOT either do away with xp block or disallow grouping above 5 levels then they open themselves up to possible legal recourse for blatantly ignoring their own rules and subjecting the player base to undue and unnecessary hardship deriving from their failure to enforce their rule. Claiming to want a "fair" game for all and blatantly ignoring the many now what would be cheaters infesting their servers can be seen as DSO itself violating its own ToC's and violating the player trust to have a quality FAIR game.
This is not spam, it is a legitimate question regarding the updated 01Nov2016 ToC's that never gets directly answered EVER. Can we report violations of this updated rule now to support?

 

Well not exactly ...

1. you should note the title of the document ... it is named "General Terms and Conditions for Bigpoint GmbH". That means General rules for all BP games (not just Drakensang Online). However ... every game is having its own subset of rules that overrides the general rules.
It is something like working with CSS in HTML ... if you create external CSS those rules are working for the page ... BUT ... if you add Inline CSS it will override the general rules (External CSS) for that particular part in the HTML document.
It is the same example with multiple accounts

In this game you can have multiple accounts.
DSO clearly states the game has been made so the twinking can exist ... otherwise they would change the mechanics and make everyone getting XP regardless of the player's level in your group.

2. One should understand the terms "pushing" and "boosting" and how thin the red line is between breaking and not breaking the rules.
If you are playing with multiple toons and blocking your other toon's XP ... that is illegal ...
... but if you are playing with your low level toon and one of your friends (real friend not your other toon ) ... than it is completely legal.

 

It states explicitly that pushing and boosting between DIFFERENT USERS accounts is ALSO breaking T0C's. We were told we had to accept the new 01Nov2016 ToC's IF we wanted to continue to play therefore I am assuming that the updated T0C's are valid for Drakensang Online. This is the only BP game I play so I had to agree to the new ToC's. So what am I missing? BP wrote the rules and per their written rules they are allowing their own updated rules, legally binding rules I might add, to be broken on a continued and non stop basis.

 

OK, since Traki's example seemed to go over your head I'll give you another involving actual law. Possession and use of a certain natural plant product is illegal under United States law. However many states have passed laws legalizing said plant for medicinal and/or recreational use. Now the Feds (e.g. Bigpoint) could tell the states (DSO) to get their laws inline but thus far have not

I have been playing on Heredur for some time and my current character is a Ranger, Oakhand, currently at level 29. He s suffering loss of concentration, which he has had from the start. This interferes with my play. I tried replacing his legendary items with lower level items. But he needs health potions which apart from being frustrating gets expensive, same with concentration potions, which only last a short while anyway.

is there something I am doing wrong? Any help greatly welcomed.

 

How often THE SALE OF GOP is going to happen? Need it really bad

 

Use a longbow that reduces concentration cost by 20%, plus use talents that allows concentration revovery

 

Thanks, UK, Ill try those suggestions

 

In addition to what UK said, you have a multitude of skills. Use them when you hunt.
Few hints:

Use death sweep against a group of creatures. Use the 2 skill trait on this skill to do 43% additional damage.

Use Adrenaline every time it is up to replenish your concentration. Use the 2 skill trait on it to make it reusable quickly.

Use the trait 2 and 3 on Hunting Arrow to remove the concentration that it uses, so you can use the concentration all for the precise shot.

Use Hunting Trap on groups of creatures to mark all of them at once and then shoot Scatter shot at them to kill them quickly.
Use trait 2 and 3 on scatter shot to recover concentration back.

Use Blade Dance and with skill trait 5 to reduce active cool downs on all skills when you target a group of creatures, specially now you can re-use Adrenaline again.

Use skill trait 2 on Deadly Blow to kill an almost dead creature to regain all your concentration.
Use skill trait 5 of Deadly Blow to heal.

Hope these tips will help you.
