Announcement Ask the CMs in English

I agree, very dissapointing that the lost legacy gear is still trapped at level 45 rather than being level 50. Or scaling to your level, so that we don't have to do this again if level 55 or 60 comes around. The weak below-level uniques spoils some of the value of being premium - had Orsha's gun came at level 50 I might have considered it despite the slight damage drop, due to the range increase. But at level 45 the drop is too low compared to my current level 50 extraordinary guy (+100 dam and 16.99% weapon damage, good but not great, but still better than a level 45 Orsha gun). The gems and glyphs are usually the only value that the cubes give as most end to near end game players are not going to find a legendary that improves things.

 

[Edited by Haruki to ensure peace of mind]This is what you said and he disagreed with.

But this is obviously wrong. You even referenced it. Sure, it is "mount/teleport" now instead of "teleport/mount" but the effect is the same. They took out the teleport/mount combo because it was a bug, but when there was players asking for it to be returned because it was helpful, it was brought back. Saying that because something was removed from the game means that it will "NEVER" be put back in shows that either that mod is an idiot or you are for taking their word for it.

Mods may speak on the behalf of the developers/CMs, but they aren't omnipotent enough to deal in absolutes like "NEVER." I'm with Allogeneous on this one, show us evidence [edited by Haruki to ensure peace of mind]. And, I'm sure that if there is a mod that said something so short sighted on the another language forum, the Team Leaders can talk to each other and set the ignorant mod straight.

 

The website login screens have been changing in various forms for weeks. Sometimes 1 way, sometimes another, sometimes with pieces of both.
Now there is a statement line, agreeing to the terms of the beta test. . . What beta test? What terms?

 

You made a broad-sweeping statement about moderators here in the ENGLISH DSO forum. You were asked for evidence to back your claim. All I see in your post is more unfounded claims and generalisations and side-stepping. To be frank, I don't give a rat's posterior what moderators on other language forum say. If you have an issue with the content posted on another forum, chat with the mods about it there. But do not tar my team or I with the same brush. Cheers.

 

Happy New Year to our community!

A question for Haruki:
Is the Untouchables set going to be added to the list of achievements? My inventory is now clogged and collecting these is not helping.
The whole idea having full sets of junk on the achievements list is neither fair nor logical.

Bad points about it:
Sets require unnecessary expenses (drakens, materi, andermants)
Clogs our inventory
Vast majority of those sets have no value to our characters whatsoever
And last but not least, I don't even see acquiring junk sets as an achievement

Most of achievements listed are justified and absolutely deserver to be on the list. Ticking those boxes is fun and gives you a purpose when there's nothing else to do, but the ones concerning acquiring sets requires developers' attention in my humble opinion.

 

I have over a full tab of partial sets. Some of which would have been completed long ago had I not melted the missing pieces prior to achievments being implemented. The simplistic confirmation tool they use to verify that you have the whole set should be augmented so that it knows what you pick up and tracks it without making you hold on to otherwise useless items. Since all this is database driven, it would be a really simple thing to make happen. Pick it up, get credit for the piece, put it in the furnace.

 

BigPapa you are very quick, can't keep up with you neither in the game nor here ))))
Was just about to add the same suggestion to my post above.
If the developers are not prepared to take sets acquisition off the achievements list, at least implement the tracking tool, same one that is used for Realm Fragments count, where we don't have to physically hold say 2000 fragments but the system tracks our progress acquiring those, so that we can easily discard of the pieces we found/bought

 

Happy New Year CMs!
Im here to ask about frags for moon events. Prior to r159 I was around 1400 on my inv. After 2 moon events i went down to 153. They were used for either farm woods/silvers either for the events. Right now im 415 frags and im sure they will not be enough to farm / play next event + hard event map.
20 runs to farm = 200 frags
20 normal event runs = 200 frags

We use to run maps more than 20 times , since we all want to get the new items from new sets/ drakens, etc .

My question is , will the frags drops be REALLY increased?

 

Most of the players do not know, what is what difficulty level for parallel world maps.
They think Painful is Normal, Excruciating is ether Hard or Medium (kinda lol here) and Fatal is Hard again or Very Hard. So the idea would be for the design team to simplify this and not make players confuse about diff. level what is what, just use Hard / Very Hard / Extreme for diff. level so everyone understands what it what.

The drop for parallel world maps on Very Hard and Extreme is unsatisfying for most players including me to, you should amp it up a bit, players not happy at all with andermant drop, relms drop, and legendary.

Take off the ess!!!!

 

PvP need some serious work, DK's don't stand a chanse vs a SW that use 2 handed weapon, he just spam new skill (ice magic) and his dead in few seconds same thing vs RA he just spam EA non stop. Armor and resistance don't help at all and since there is no more determination, DK's can be stuned non stop since they do not have many debuff from stun skill, there are just 2, one is 23s and the other 1 min. so overall DK is dead as a dodo in arena compared to the other classes, DK just don't stand a chanse anymore. Design team sure made some poor choices in terms on PvP.
I raised my armor over 7000+ aand not working in my favor at all ... You can hate me all you want, but this is the trouth.

 

you shud try playing vs dwarfs they are over kill their heal is stupid crazy

 

I have SM, that's is not easy thing to master and use, trust me, but damage wise, SM are at the very top, skill wise second to bottom just above DK. Best overall of 4 classes skill is Ice Magic, devastating with 2 handed weapon, next is ofcorse EA wich does a lot of damage and since no one is doing anything to balance and correct stuff .. I am stoping play arena like many other DK's on my server, it's just done very very bad now.
I really liked arena before new skill system, was much better balanced then it is now. Now I just hate it, I only play 'couse I put off far to long quest for dog form 5v5 and want to finish it.

 

try 1v1 with SM ull see their heal capability and turrent is stupendeous

 

Please stop ess working on other players... this is getting rediculous.

 

i never do them i just collect the boxes n hope for ess

 

I guess YOU need some re-shaping of your "tactics".
From your words, it SEEMS that you liked so much winning matches in war-godmode:
"oh yes, please fire arrows to me: ahahahah, you stupid ranger didn't do any damage to me, now it's my turn to grab you and i will smash you in 2 hits"
"oh yes, please launch your fireballs to me: ahahahah, you stupid mage didn't do any damage to me, now it's my turn to grab you and i will smash you in 2 hits"

See it, something has changed. You also should change something.
And don't lie please:
Rangers CAN'T spam explosive arrows. Please show a video where a ranger SPAMS explosive arrows. Oh, look, and even rangers CAN BE STUNNED NON STOP, did you realize it?

Again, we are ALL bored everytime to read when someone thinks to SOLVE this crap situation nerfing other classes: your proposal it's not a solution, it's only the result of a very limited scope of view about current status of pvp.

The whole system must be reviewed. But so much people already told this, seems that you wrote without reading anything.
But thank you for your post, it gave me the opportunity to put a reminder for the CM's to try play pvp versus real players and not against BP developers/testers, to feel the real situation.

Oh yes, also another opportunity to remind that pvp-life-bug-using is always here and by the time largely widespread, since they took no action to solve it.

 

It is not like that, I miss old arena 'couse I could play in witch chaser set and DK vs any class was more fer, better balanced. Now it's just SW and RA that have power, DK is dead as a dodo for arena. You don't want game to be balanced so you as a RA can stay in power, that's the trouth.

I never sead that you don't get non stop stuned, I only mention that there is no more determination skill in arena and btw DK's have 23s and 1 min debuff / escape form stun vs a RA that have 9s and 18s, that is a lot less, that's why you don't miss determination skill for arena and DK's do. As for the EA yes RA can spam them since there is no cooldown on it and Adrenaline skill not only gives them escape from stun every 18s but also gives back full con. so he can shot more EA, yeah spam EA. Hmm come to think of it .. it would be a good idea to increase "price" for skill to 80 con. for EA and for the mage 80 mana for the ice magic skill, that alone would but some balance in to the game.

I got to laugh hahahah
Strong skill should always come with the big price for use so there is no spaming it and ofcorse a cooldown time. This is not the case for EA or Ice Magic, that was the biggest blunder of DT.
You are the one who is narrow sight of things, you only see RA corner. Yes I'am speaking from the DK corner but am not focus on 1 class, am focus on all. Maybe you should read more carefully.

 

Stop twinking and playing open PVP ... and you have nothing to worry about.

It is not about the classes ... the arena is completely broken since R155.
I have a decent ranger ... and my primary objective in the arena is to kill the P2P guy ... but the kill must be honest ... and that is not possible with the currently broken PVP system.
That is why I don't play the arena since the content expansion.
I suggest to all players: stop playing the arena ... because the devs are watching you playing and think "how wonderful our work is they are playing it all the time".
Boycott the arena ... and when their incomes get to almost 0 ... maybe they will reconsider making the PVP like it was pre-R155.
Ruining something that was working good is a crime ... continue playing the arena ... and you are accomplices in crime.
It is simple as that.
