Opioid posted:For the guy complaining about 240 days to make his armour set... is it BoP? It is an MMO, surely you can take one of the slots recipes and in combination with 4 other armorsmiths make the full set instantly for everyone? You know, the multiplayer part. Ihki posted:What do you think this means to a person who doesn't know that? I have the full expectation that it's going to change, and likely soon once more people start running the numbers and making a big deal of it, but here's how it works for end-game crafting: Hit Level 50. Reach Expert Crafting. For all but Technologist (NYI), you will then receive a Mail pertaining to "Expert Research" crafting, or, for Architect, 'Master/Grand Master' crafting. For Expert Research, which is the relevant one here, this is where we create the 'Epochos XX1' and the 'Adventus XX2-4' tiers of gear. Ideally the numbers of these crafts are tuned similarly to starting out with Vet Adventures on Epochos, then beginning raiding on Adventus XX4. Adventus XX3 tends to be better for most people, but let's ignore that for now. So, say you've already done most of the vet Adventures, but didn't get lucky with gear drops. You're getting ready to do the easier dungeons, so you want some Adventus XX2 armour, which would help out pretty similarly, but maybe slightly less so, than having a bunch of Vet Adventure Epics. The process to make Adventus XX2 armour is to first make every single Epochos XX1 piece. To make each Epochos piece, you have to first purchase the schematic using your Crafting Vouchers, which you obtain by doing Crafting Dailies. Overall, the cost for Epochos comes to roughly 2 days' worth of dailies. Secondly, you need to obtain 1 Elder Data Fragment per Epochos piece. How do you obtain Elder Data Fragments? Every single day, you can do a fetch quest to obtain just one. Additionally, you get a bonus singular Elder Data Fragment upon hitting Level 50. Pre-patch, you had three of these quests, but now it's been reduced to one per day. This is the problem. The armours themselves are BoE, so you're absolutely free to make armour for other people - at the cost of only being able to make one per day, now, so it'll still take you about a week to make a full set, regardless of EDF costs. Here's the costs per tier: Epochos XX1 - 1 EDF Adventus XX2 - 7 EDF Adventus XX3 - 10 EDF Adventus XX4 - 18 EDF I can't confirm yet whether or not you have to make the Support System/Shield/Implant to unlock the next tier as well as every other piece, but for the full set of XX4 it comes out to around 7 to 8 months. Either way, because you have to make the full set to unlock the next tier, you can't rely on other people for anything because they're just as delayed as you are to the next tier. Opioid posted:So per armoursmith there can only be 1 set of gear entering the game every 240 days? That does seem sparse but I can't imagine the guys tuning the numbers not acknowledging that when they were deciding on numbers. Maybe it's only intended to plug gear gaps with a piece here and there. Well.. There is the caviat that once you have crafted a piece using the Elder Data Fragments, you unlock the schematic to be crafted without either the Crafting Voucher Schematic or the Elder Data Fragments. So.. after 8 months, you could craft a full set of Adventus XX4 on a weekly basis, supposing you had the resources for it.

So I just did the world boss in Celestion with 19 pubbies and holy poo poo was that a fight. Also apparently even the basic Medic heal uses Focus, so I was bottomed out at like 1-3% the entire back half of the fight because I had nothing on my bar that didn't need Focus. I think from now on I'm gonna keep Dispersion on there so I can at least do dinky DPS.

Not hard to get a week off from work if you're not working a lovely minimum wage job (except if its broadcasting your twitch gameplay with 200-300 viewers). I would assume most people applying to this guild are either single with no job, single with a job where they arent that important but get normal vacation time and like using it on a video game, or are rich, or are their own boss. Or anyone of those with a significant other who doesn't care they have these priorities. Nostalgia4Infinity posted:Bahahahaha yeah I'm going to waste 5 or more days of vacation time on a video game -- let alone progression raiding in an MMO. Vacation time is used for what you enjoy doing. If its going to europe for 5 days or staying home playing for 5 days how is that bad?

Double-tap it before you engage, then start your rotation, then the blades hit and you get 2 quick points to get you to 5 faster.

That's kind of funny because when I was younger I would be unemployed during the winters and my WoW progression worked in perfect correlation with the unemployment spikes. At the peak I ran a guild with two 25 man raid teams and four 10 man raid teams and then I started working and all of it went down the toilet. 3 months of working and I had lost all of it. When I wasn't there to micromanage every little aspect. Things just fell apart.

All my officers ever did when I gave them responsibilities was demand more guild bank access and/or take handfuls of members to run off and try and start their own raid guilds. I ran that Wow guild for 6 years. Never once did I have an officer I could trust. But I'm not acting the victim. I know officers need "wooing" to remain happy and fulfil their duties and I believe I failed in keeping them happy which is why they failed the Guild in return.

Don't fill your guild with ungovernable cunts and being a guild leader is very easy. If someone gives you grief every single day you log on just kick them out of your guild.

Holyshoot posted:Might not be but that time you stop to cast it could be spent casting a tks You avoid this by using Concentrated Blades and Bolster inside of other skills GCDs, while leveling you can usually stick it in during Spectral Swarm's GCD, in longer fights it should go in Mind Burst's GCD. My standard leveling rotation in the 40s goes Haunt -> Spec Swarm -> CB+Bolster inside Spec Swarms GCD -> TKS -> TKS and immediately Mind Burst (this is a trick with the ability queue that will give you the TKS point after the MB) -> the 2 CBs and the second TKS hit, giving you 3 points -> 2 more TKS and another MB. Most mobs are dead by that point. Dashes get fit inside the Mind Burst GCD for Tactician procs, if things go wrong or I gently caress up I'll usually pop innate then.

Man, I still don't understand these crafting bags you can get with the little vouchers. Are they just tier appropriate stuff, or can you get more exotic equipment though them? The tutorial teaches you how to buy them but that's about it; I'm paranoid I'd be wasting the bloody things.
