Bob NewSCART posted:Is tanking as a cleric fun in this game? I've been trying to start playing again on my 50 cleric who used to be DPS way back before storm legion but now I'm so lost on this character I'm thinking of just starting a warrior, or a new cleric. Depends on what you mean by fun. Cleric tanks are very powerful and all three classes are viable. I believe clerics can generate threat easier than the other two tank classes, and also you get that brez. SlayVus posted:So has there been any word on if they are going to change how patron gifts work? Aka, only one per account. You mean logging on an EU character to get double rewards? Daglar seemed to indicate that he really didn't care. Doubt they will spend the time to change it unless a huge portion of the pop starts doing it.

Eltoasto posted:I believe clerics can generate threat easier than the other two tank classes. Clerics have the highest "naked" threat in 20 mans. (Naked meaning with terrible gear into account, except the synergy crystal, without the synergy crystal even the worst geared warrior can pull aggro off a cleric.) Warriors are endurance-dependant and have the highest current threat on upto 10 targets due to how ridiculous Endurance on the legend lessers is, this is particularly true if the targets can't be AEd or only a single target can be hit (this currently strictly a theoretical case). And (I'd have to verify) but I think they have an advantage on 2-4 and 6-7 targets over clerics, exactly 5 targets and 8+ targets is the domains of Clerics. Rogues threat is highly dependent on their weapons, but for example Loracia with a relic can easily pull aggro off me (with me doing my regular threat rotation) on 2 or less targets.

I was experiencing some pretty spikey nonsense yesterday and the day before, but nothing like the couple of days they gave out the 450 funbux for. Admittedly, it could have been from my end, but given the recent track record for Trion, I'm putting my money on their end.

Zoness posted:I was told by some cleric tank that "Rogues poo poo threat". That they do, but again, extremely dependent on their weapon. I am not sure how their AE threat stacks on "clean" stacks (those that are close together already), warriors (with some specs) and clerics have an advantage there in that they apply threat to anything in range on their aggro list.

Zoness posted:I was told by some cleric tank that "Rogues poo poo threat". The problem isn't in the builders so much as it is in Guarded Steel. Generally speaking most fights are build to 5 combo points and hit with guarded steel, whether or not planar splash is on, that's just how most raid fights are. Knowing what I know now? In Matriarch I'm fine doing whatever near or even on a Childe so long as I don't use GS on it, and at the same time I don't think I had a devourer pulled off me by DPS once I hit it with GS (and they'd frequently flock to Tsu, Asra or Kreczor with just my regular AoE going). Oh, and either don't pop power of the planes on Goloch, or don't continue to do my regular rotation if I do so (gee, a fight where the boss has attacks that can be dodged or deflected, increasing my AP and weapon damage by 50% seems like an amazing idea). KaneTW posted:Have jaunt on C-T, Soul Synthesis on C-Y, enjoy pulling the whole room/cleaving the whole raid/etc Or the trash before Goloch where I accidentally pulled most of an additional pack by running to where Hedo was (loving blink AoE). Shalhavet posted:*blink* *blink* "gently caress." Nothing is really as bad as Akylios was. *blink* *accidentally tap w* "WELP I'M DEAD" Matriarch's really odd in where you blink to with her though, but on the upside if I get spored as tank I can go halfway across the room by turning around and blinking to her and get most of the way to wall with another blink.

Daerc posted:^ So basically the hunts we were most actively bitching about being broken were broken, awesome. Just about every. single. world event. has had issues with them designing it like only 4 or 5 people would ever be doing the daily/weekly quest at any given time. The reality is, everybody is doing it on every character, all the time every day nonstop.

Are you seriously comparing this to the RoS release event? For serious? This poo poo is minimal and tends to be hard to diagnose till it goes to production, give them a break.

I think I have blanked that from my memory it was so bad, so no, not comparing it directly to that. But things not spawning fast enough/in enough quantity is not a new adjustment they have needed to make to previous world events.

mr. nobody posted:I think I have blanked that from my memory it was so bad, so no, not comparing it directly to that. Honestly the only real problem was Skull Rain, and that was because of a bug, and judging from the fact that it hosed with every server on our cluster but Faeblight, was probably something that should have been caught in testing. The abilities disappearing was massively inconsistent and they'd come back just as inconsistently. Super Charger was only a bitch because no one knew about the 8th platform location, so it'd spend a poo poo ton of time there. And I actually had the set of abilities come back after picking up a charged one there, because you can jump onto that platform with a 150 speed mount. Number of spawns in Ashora wasn't the problem though, the problem was that there was no rainbow, which there purportedly was on the PTS.

So if you haven't played around with the Druid and Inquisitor PTS changes... Druid is pretty cool and has a neat priority system with Resounding Blow + DoTs. The Great Faerie Seer is just way better than the Satyr last time I tried it on PTS for AoE damage, just turn on Fae Dispersion and watch it go. Inquisitor is AMAZAAAAAAAAAAAANG.

How much DPS increase would a 10% increase in Wisdom or Spellpower provide? I'm sitting here trying to figure out why Wisdom and Spellpower buffs would be better then straight up Damage X% buffs.

SlayVus posted:How much DPS increase would a 10% increase in Wisdom or Spellpower provide? I'm sitting here trying to figure out why Wisdom and Spellpower buffs would be better then straight up Damage X% buffs. Spellpower scales off raid buffs more than everything else. Also IIRC a 10% damage increase is additive rather than multiplicative so each 10% damage increase is worse whereas Spell Power is affected by more modifiers. Just going off the top of my head. Also what's the context here?

Zoness posted:Inquisitor is AMAZAAAAAAAAAAAANG. Also, inquisitor on PTS still hasn't been nerfed to bring it below paragon, so I'm reasonably sure inq should be making GBS threads out some pretty good numbers for a while (meanwhile Muspel is out bitching up a storm because for sub-30% necrotic bolt spam can get up to with 5% of inq).

I've been trying to get back into Rift for a couple of days, but recovering my old account is seeming sort of impossible. I haven't logged in since before everyone's passwords were reset, and now neither the Trion site's login, the "Forgot password?" process or Live Support have been working. I registered a new free account, but now can't log in on the site using that, either. Is this typical, or is the site just particularly boned lately? Tried multiple browsers/computers, so I'm kind of at a loss.

Of course the quest is not possible to finish now, but... If you're talking about the Shade-touched Weapon Cache, it's still completable. I stopped playing shortly after the RoS event, and when I came back I still had the level 43 quest item sitting in my vault. Since I just hit 43 on my rogue this week I went ahead and activated the quest, and I was able to get all the required items (Scepters from invasions, Blades from rifts, and the Executor from a zone boss in Scarwood Reach).
