R221

gg now i have finally a good reasason to destroy witch seeker set
ps. do i need to do crafting for the new jewels or they excange the old one for them?

 

Don't be that quick. It probably is an error which will be corrected before R221 hit live server.

 

that's also still a sequel of GTS( Grand Theft Sapphires), so it's still bad

Thanks to the one who invented that quote

 

DON'T TOUCH MY ORIGINAL JEWELS !!!.

 

Are these robes/armors new?If they new ı wonder dk and ranger armors to.Can u add images for requested classes

 

They should simply remove it... it must be a bug. Or is it a feature? Bugture? Wait... it's all the same.

As I said somewhere, without the sets classes are balanced. So, if dwarfs deal "no damage" without Q8 set, do you realise it means that the other classes do not deal any damage under any circumstances?
Those sets require heavy rebalancing (I described how-to in a post in the R220 thread)... and that clear bug on the Q1 torso means that they're somehow tinkering with the uniques. Maybe they are going to start the set rebalancing soon...

You have since R220, actually, since Q8 is stronger now.
Also, as couda said, that's a bug and probably won't hit live servers at all.

They're converted through script, like the sapphires and runes of celerity were.

There have been over 5 pages of posts, that is 105 individual posts, dedicated to the sapphires, in the dedicated thread alone (+ some in the regular feedback threads). There was a backlash of shills, of course, but still the majority of players voted against the removal of sapphires. Did they care? No, they went for the changes anyways.

There have been numerous posts throughout the forums, social media and wiki regarding the gearless PvP. There has been a public poll in the wiki, in which even greater majority of players voted against the proposed changes. Did they care? No, they broke the PvP even more than it was before their changes and, despite the promises of further rebalancing, it stayed so for over half a year and probably will stay for another half a year until they do something, if at all.

I'm not sure what will these changes look like in their final version, but so far it still isn't ok. Welp, even if they removed the limits on the solstice star, did a fair conversion (t2 = 3 new), etc. etc... there still would be the new "triple royals" that are P2W as hell.
There is still a possibility that it wouldn't turn out P2W, but sadly I quite lost hope in their common sense... I'm not in the mood right now to explain how could this all be made not-pay-to-win.

They're simply bugged, but it's clear they're making changes to them, so we'll see.

 

What about rangers? I use this kind of armor, I am curious about it

 

The torsos are not new, they are still the same including unique values. The thing is that in R220 the flat value of resource regeneration does not scale with level. It seems that they did an adjustment in R221 so it scales with level unless explicitly mentioned not to do so. The scale factor for level 55 is 40 -> that is why flat value 1 (mage) / 0.5 (SM) became 40 / 20.

As the unique value of Ranger's/DK's version of the armor is not resource regeneration related then they are the same in both the R220 and R221 versions.

EDIT - fixed in R221_2; Jewel of Rage sockets into weapon mod instead of ring.

 

and those sets are back to old values

 

of course they are, are crazy, wanting some diversity in end game builds? Don't be silly and let Big Brother BP tell you how to build your character

 

A lot of bugs ... as usual.
For those who were whining about the unrewarding drops from bosses and chest during last DtU event hers is the news: now the drops are scaling with difficulty. But ... there is a catch. The drop is not increased ... they only nerfed the drop on lower difficulties.
Dragan is harder than Mortis even without his knights (knights are removed and the whole fight is boring and dull taking too long even on low difficulties) but he is generous as usual


I got lucky so I got 2 lucky drops



BTW ... Michael Jackson's quest will be probably dropping 2 frags on each map per single drop ... if you ever get them XD
Because we have these unique values on cloaks

and ... more resource points


You can now pristine core craft cloaks



EDIT
////////

BTW ... I forgot to add 1 week premium.
That premium ^ in the screenshots is from those chests. I got it on 2 characters (14 days)

 

BTW ... there is no draken cores dropping anymore in DTU event !

 

sincerely hope that is just a bug... lowered progress, no draken cores. Like they do not want us to play this event at all

 

New patch - bosses are buffed up even more (at least DtU bosses).

 

EDIT mods and bigpoint employees play on the test server with 100% max stats and think its too easy so they make it harder. They are so disconnected from the real game and community.

The fact that we, the players, didnt get any feedback from the feedback section about patch 220 tells it all. 99% is negative feedback and not even 1 statement from bigpoint, might as well delete the feedback section...


--- MERGED ---


I wouldn't be suprised if the bigpoint team haven't even visited the feedback section in over a year

 

That is not a new thing. They have ignored players pretty much since the beginning. Just read any "official feedback" post on the forum.

Consider it this way. If you owned this game and players still played despite complaining, would you bother listening to them?

Or consider it this way. If you were a dev and kept your job despite driving away many players, would you bother listening to them?

Now if you wanted to frustrate your player base into quitting, there is no one better than the DSO dev's.

 

Even harder bosses? Well that's nice.

Gems being used as ingredients for crafting? While I only own one royal, so I need every single gem to make stronger gems instead of grinding them to dust or wasting them on random cloaks? Well that's nice, too.

I'm starting to be glad I've run out of inventory space, so I can't play anymore :3

 

No it means my class is forced to play with one set so he can do dmg, while your class can choose up to 3 sets based on your playstyle and at the same time you will have dmg as the other classes, seems balanced right (but you and 99,99% of in this forum cant understand it, because you and other mages in this forum live in a delusional world where dwarfs are op and your class is the weakest class of all 4)? Still you can't deny the fact that this is straight mage buff and a joke for a dwarf.
P.s Let's not forget mages still abuse 8-9 seconds q7 buff while playing with bloodstaff/bearach

 

What do you not understand about what I am saying?!

All the classes are balanced without sets.
Mage has a few sets of similar strength.
Dwarf has two sets that form an OP combo. Other sets aren't trash either and are only slightly below the mage level (or maybe on the same level, but too little people play them to be able to compare them thoroughly), but the one combo is at least 3x better than anything else.
Ranger has one very strong set and lots of ones with wasted bonuses = bad ones. Ranger with the strong set is stronger than mage, with the bad once is weaker.
Knight has as well as mage a few good sets, but one is slightly stronger than the other.

I am doing a theoretical comparison of classes with sets soon, as I did once in the past... we'll see the effects. A few things have changed since then.

PS

You know that the time spent switching weapons is better spent fighting, right? It's compared already, it's not worth it.

 

False, and PvP is clearly reflecting that, classes (and I repeat: classes) are not balanced. Some people think that giving an op set to a weak class is solving the problems, but it's not.
