R188

Defeat the Undefeatable!



New event mounts (at least it says they are obtainable from events)




Scaling back the enchantments from previous "unique crafting bug" to their original level values

Before



After R188



Leaderboards

 

To hell with that. That right there is definitive proof that the developers do not listen to feedback, do not understand how players think, and ultimately are destroying the game because of it. I keep wondering which messed up change will be the one that finally pushes me over the edge. It may have already happened. In the past week, I've played about 6 hours worth of DSO when in the past, I'd been known to do that much in one sitting.

 

I had a dream....it was a beautiful dream - in my dream after moving enchantments from a legendary item level 50 into unique one level 55, the enchantments stay at the level of the legendary item level 50 but....there would be a wee number 50 next to the enchantments section and the player has got a choice to level them up from level 50 to 60 ( it takes normally around 54 kk Glyphes of Power )...you get my drift- whoever wishes to can go ahead and improve the item awesomly if he/she has got enough Glyphes.If you want then you could improve the enchantments (and Base Values in this case) only by 5 levels using 18kk glyphes or keep improviong the enchantments by another 5 levels using 54kk in total then- of course the Base Values would be upgradable only by 5 levels (level 55- level 60 for 18kk ) I am sure it would complicate things for our programmers but it would be a nice thing to have.

Yeah, maybe you are correct about the items not scaling anymore. However, there is the other flip of the coin, the one saying that in this way they are trying to balance some things, in terms of preventing the gap between older and newer players from getting wider by not allowing the old players to have their 4x gold-lined crit rings scaling to their level. Its way harder now to farm crit rings because only level 50 and lower maps have such items anymore, when before we could farm them in PW "easier". Also, i think its not that big of a deal that they dont scale, its not like the end of the world, if we take into consideration the new PW rings as well as the new % crit rate on adornments. I am sure that they could make this better,so noone would complain, but it sure is not the end of the world, especially when there are way more important things that have to be addressed right now, dont you think?

 

I would agree with you- right now you can transfer 4x 30% 'increased Critical Hit Value on this item' enchantments into a Unique wepon adornment and 4x 14% Critical Hit Value into a unique hat and with decent onyxes and nice PW rings it will work quite nicely I'd say. It takes time to get one's head around the new system but it is doable.

 

Also, i just saw a video about the new khalys, at least in fatal mode, i dont know how she will be on other modes.However, she seems broken as hell. Khalys is crazy strong as it is now and noone wants her to get even worse

 

Khaly you say...well sir, you want to be speaking with a bit of respect about my beloved girlfriend ..kidding lol but yeah- since you mention that Khaly is 'crazy strong' now I think I shall pay her a visit and see what's going on- I have to say that I've been somewhat neglecting her in recent months Wonder what flowers she likes? Any idea? Perhaps a bunch of Mytsical Lunar Blossom will put a smile on her face?

 

I met her once recently. She was like 'f-me, mage without a dwarf and a tank, all by himself? There won't be happy ending kid'

She was right. No happy ending. She prefers ugly creatures.

 

I just have a different idea. Why can't I get Unique Rune for unique and crafting materials? E.x. I can get Bearach's Torturer rune from PW Q4 NPC. This rune only has golden description and set bonus with other part/rune of Bearach's Untamed Might set. It only works with 2H mace. I can insert this rune into any 2H mace I like to use and upgrade this 2H mace as usual. Where's the problem of scale matching?

There are many unique items in DSO. I just hope all of them will increase the richness of playing. The renew and harder PW of game expansion just blocks me out of playing. Why should I offer an idea to a crafting problem that power players suffer only?

 

Most of the characters, managed to craft those items, are SMs. They craft %damage and %speed. So, they are not affected of this change. AGAIN!
Other characters who crafted these items were looking for something else - rangers and mages crafted crit, DKs - flat lines of armor. Well, they are screwed. AGAIN!
We asked for balance, not for further imbalance...
Several times i said that hey are stuck, they just dont know what to do. Here is another proof of my words. I`m not happy that i`m right, i`m actually sad

 

The issue is that the time to do this was with the creation of the new system, not over a month after the new system. It goes back to one of my most common complaints. The developers don't think before they act. Their shortsightedness ends up screwing players over and they don't even understand why what they are doing pisses players off. They need a dedicated player who understands and thinks like a real player who can tell them when they are making a mistake. It reminds me of Crafting 2.0.2 vs 2.0.3. If they had given us 2.0.3 first and stuck with it, people would have been happy. Instead, they gave us 2.0.2 first which was perfect from a player's stand point. Then, when they changed to 2.0.3, we felt like something was taken away from us... and that is an example of something that never even went live. This is going to be even worse than that reaction and as saddened as I am by it, I'm no longer shocked. Pick the worst choice of the ones available and the developer team will pick it every time.

For example, a better fix that would be nearly universally received would be to reintroduce absolute enchantments on items and allow players to combine them however they see fit in the new system... but noooooo, that helps players, so the odds of it happening are next to zero.

 

I saw a vid on patch 188 and it shows on the leaderboards a new GROUP tab. My question is simple and will hopefully be passed on to someone at BP who will give an honest answer instead of avoiding the twink discussion. Is DSO giving twinks then the free UNEARNED rewards off leaderboards? And if so WHY?

 

I hope the group leaderboards will only be available to lvl 55 players only.You cant really compete with op twinks that can 1hit pretty much every boss ingame.

 

I saw that on the new Defeat The Undefeatables event the reworked cloaks have base stats, like it was supposed to be. I wonder when they are going to rework ( if they have not done so in the test server, which i dont know) one of the best cloaks in the game, the karabossa, and the new and full moon items in general

 

First they do all wat can do for dwarfs,in 2056 for athers class.the question is,why saphiry royal cant use for 1h weapon also?How many time wait for change it?sorry for my english

 

But royal sapphires can be used in 1H weapons ... I am using 5x royal sapphires in my longbow + 2x 8% runes converted from my sapphire leftovers.

 

Obviously he is talking about the rune of supreme celerity,which came from royal saphire and can only be put in 2h weapons

 

ye is that.U play with 1h weapon,dont have free slot on a weapon or ornament because have saphire royal.this is not advantage for u play with 1h weapon,and we wait more time. They dont take a decision...more players stop to play for that

 

There is a snake. Monster hunt reward

 

Hi! I bought "Insignia of honor" one of my character, but nothing happened, no progress. This is a bug?
