I'm reading some patch notes and there's some interesting things:

  • Sound and highlight notification for queue pop, so you will know when queue pops while minimized.
  • Distortion bosses will always drop a purple primary and secondary weapon for the class you're playing.
  • Purple weapons will have an additional bonus (%) to might, to make might a little more attractive
  • Group dungeons (5-mans) will always drop a purple amulet at the last boss. Other bosses will have a 50% chance of dropping purple amulets.
  • 40 new adept missions
These are part of the first update after the divine form/distortions/invasions stuff, released two weeks earlier.

  • Commanders that don't vote will be considered to have voted yes, once voting ends. Voting ends in 3 days.
  • Construction power reductions to the buildings associated with high level content. Pantheons who have already built these buildings will be compensated.
  • UI and minor balance changes
^ Divine form/distortions/invasions patch.

I have a feeling that we'll get both of those patches together, though. The other big patch that I've already posted about also has numerous improvements to dungeons, some optimized animations and effects, a number of fixes for 12 classes and other stuff. Eventually they're also removing secondary objectives from group dungeons and rewarding everyone with S rank for completion.

Oh thank god. Though It would be cool if you could toggle it back on for a small extra reward. An extra challenge for guild groups/friends.

I did say eventually. That's like the latest patch they got, released last week or something. So we may not see that change in a while.

As far as big updates go, we're behind one content drop and three major patches.

In terms of time, we're almost 3 months behind. The god form/invasions/distortions patch was released for RU OBT on May 6. The other patch I mentioned was released on May 20. The catch-up system/grouping patch was released on June 24.

Yeah actually you're the one who's wrong Mr.Drinks outta fists. The corpse drop thing happens when you execute and when the guy dies with the plague dot on.

Fun fact; when you execute something with the plague dot, you get two corpse drop charges. However when you use it once it consumes both charges.

So you are right. I was totally wrong here. Apparently the claws of death talent funeral lament being on does not trigger the corpse bomb for me. But the normal execute does. HyC is still a shitlord though.

Realizing when you are wrong and admitting it is the path to becoming always right as my father told me. I was angry that I was mistaken if that makes you feel better.

I have just combed though the OP and FAQ posts and edited them to be all nice and shiny with all our new gathered information from playing this poo poo game. I am still missing writeup posts on the following classes for the OP:

Knight
Archer
Gunner
Warlock/Witch
Monk

So I am going to stare at Lawlicaust, HyC and Luthience in that order with a glimmer of murder and disgust in my eyes.
Also some of the writeup links in the OP just loving suck. If you have a class that you are the poo poo at please go ahead and read what we got linked there in the OP for the new players and tell me if that trout swims with you.

Given that we are still getting a pile of invite requests from goons still for the guild it seems that the issue was not fixed by my lazy efforts. After this square goes up we will be building a whole new shiny clan. So I am gonna need a new loving shitlord pulled from the filth of societies sewers to run it. As usual people that want the job will not get it and those who refuse the job will. I also can be bought in the form of lavish seven digit guild donations and pulling on the dicks of my fellow commanders till they quack. (gently caress we should have a duck game match to determine the commander now that I think about it.)

Lawlicaust posted:

We should easily have all that loving resistance/power/distortion jazz up and running by the time that patch lands. Getting all these loving goons in here while maintaining some kind of guild functionality is still my priority. The bigger ball of garbage we become the better.

If you want to turn some gems into credits what is the most efficient way? Is straight up converting them the best or are there any dumb items out there you can buy with gems and then sell for more credits than just converting?

Just sell them. If you buy enough holy texts that the price drops to 6 argents each, holy texts are better.

The market is supposed to fluctuate based on supply and demand, but they froze the prices on everything on the second day of early access.

Hmm was there a recent patch? Just fought sea lord promethos and my alchemist shield was reflect his attacks back in the scrolling combat text but wasn't actually damaging him like it did a few days before.

Also this is just about the worst game I have ever played that thought jumping puzzles are good with their crappy collision modeling.

Just spent an hour and a half grinding through MSM as a necro with a pub group. End up getting stuck on the kraken boss, tank has trouble staying alive and I have to frantically improvise-tank for the group for half the fights. People start leaving, including the tank and support. We get new pubs, a cryo and a support. Cryo notices we have no tank and quickly suggests we kick the lower prestige guy (me). I'm kicked before I can blink.

Ask me how I feel about this game.

The game always fills up the party with the missing roles, so someone who joined after the tank left queued as a tank and switched classes. Also, don't play with pubs if you can avoid it; If you're low prestige, plenty of us are happy running goons through low prestige 5 mans. It takes like 10-15 minutes for a 1/2* MSM run and you still get all the loot and other rewards. At higher prestige, most of the grouping issues are gone. That or I might be absurdly lucky.

Anyway, I was wondering why the timing for dealing double crit Twilight Scourges as a Slayer was so tight; Apparently when you cancel out of an attack's animation, you can't deal damage during the time that animation would be playing. I find it easier to try to squeeze 5-6 Twilight Scourges during one Shadow Cloaking, which does less damage due to the critical damage buff wearing off, but is much easier to pull off. Fortunately with Berserker this is not an issue, as it will only stop the damage from the first two basic attacks.
