Fuuuuuuck. I wanted to pick up the legendary upgrade for shadowfell... Also maybe the bonus tp thing because this is the only game I sound the whalehorn for. Don't forget double bonus tp for the regular buying right now, too. edit: just a heads up, if you're a new/returning player and/or don't have horc or catacombs, the horc pack gives you 500tp for 3 bucks and the starter pack gives you 250tp for 1.50.

Welp. Momentum swing apparently doesn't work unarmed. Thank god I planned stuff out in a character planner this time and double-checked the wiki. I had managed to fit cleave in but I guess I'll replace it with something else. deflect arrows maybe? I doubt toughness will be much use. And I basically locked myself into using handwraps cause I made tier 2 tforged wraps. Otherwise I might have tried messing around with switching to staffs. Although my enhancements are 100% taken up and i wouldn't get any stick enhancements so that may not be a great idea. edit: One day handwraps won't be such a clusterfuck... I doubt anytime soon though. double edit: weapon focus bludgeoning worthwhile purely for the +2 melee power? Probably not. RosaParksOfDip fucked around with this message at 08:53 on Nov 26, 2015 |

Focus feats are cool if you have nothing else or get something other than DPS from them like barb healing or a ton of SA or whatever. The other option is just going Divine Crusader instead, DPS is pretty good and defence too with those circles of healing. Might be better than LD since you don't get Momentum Swing, Lightning Mace or Pulveriser with fists. Fake edit:  Celestial Champion also doesn't give the threat range to fists.

Yeah I've maxed GMoF and Divine Crusader so far. I want to max LD and hopefully use it as higher DPS swap-in destiny as I have to level it to 4 anyway cause I need to go through and max shiradi(for the primal destiny feat PTWF). edit: I might try to shift everything up and grab Grandmaster of Forms at 18 otherwise I'll just low effort grab deflect arrows. I think from now on I'm going to be smarter and make my characters in a builder before starting LRs. It's such a pain when a mistake is made. Also, goddamn Fallout 4 killed a lot of my group's momentum. This always seems to happen as I start getting really into DDO... double edit: I realized I lied. I maxed Unyielding Sentinel, not Divine Crusader. triple edit: Wiki notes like these are magical: Castigation: Your Aura of Purification also harms nearby enemies, dealing Bane damage every 3 seconds. Non-bosses take damage equal to 1% of their current health for each stack of Purification they have. Bosses instead take 1d6 Bane damage per stack of Purification. This ability also grants +2 Melee Power. Bug: Bosses take no damage from this aura. Bug: Does not provide +2 Melee Power. Note: Orange named monsters take both 1% of their current health AND 1d6 Bane damage per stack of Purification. RosaParksOfDip fucked around with this message at 00:23 on Nov 27, 2015 |

So apparently Lay Waste may work with unarmed and momentum swing might be usable(it just doesn't factor in your handwraps damage at all so it counts as punching stuff with naked fists). It might be worth it to run cleave instead of deflect arrows so and use momentum swing + lay waste since lay waste is some solid damage. Although it might still be garbage since I'd only have one cleave to try and reset momentum and momentum swing is probably the better damage skill (increased threat range + more likely to be reset so I'd get more attacks in with it). As I type this out, it sounds like a dumb idea. I'm just gonna go with deflect arrows. Better yet maybe I'm not gonna bother running in LD. Probably max it for destiny stuff because why not, but odds are it won't be what i stick with.

https://myaccount.turbine.com should list what DDO Marketplace packs you've bought, for some reason mine doesn't show up MotU so I'll try redeeming that. Think I bought it from the in game store so if you've done that previously for them you might be able to get cheaper TP from packs you've previously bought. Ok it took a few attempts but they all took, previously DDO Marketplace had me as only having Shadowfell Collectors Edition so I snagged: Shadowfell Standard(already had CE) MotU Standard(already had from in game store) Half orc pack(doesn''t show up on myaccount even after purchase) Starter Pack(same deal, not shown in myaccount) 11k TP(hopefully will last me a long rear end time)

Yeah, they're pretty cool too and will refund if it fucks up according to forums people, got a few errors before they all took so retry a bit before reclaiming. Other than TP I also got a free character slot from Shadowfell Standard that stacks with the 3 I had from Collector Edition, pretty rad deal.

Nice. I can add the standard shadowfell I bought to get my grubby mitts on the 11k tp. Also probably grab the standard MotU, too. Also, RIP I forgot to take extend. Oh well. Guess I just have to recast resist every 5 minutes instead of 10. Also blur until I get a lesser displacement item. Or just be more on the ball about keeping displacement up from the enlightened spirit tree. Anyway, this ordeal is finally over, no matter how the monk performs from now on, this is it. I'm just hoping I didn't overdo the defense reduction to pick up offense. edit: the myaccount page is buggy as all hell, showing only the Activate Product Key section double edit: 13k tp left after buying a +6 supreme tome.

 You weren't kidding about Warlocks being monsters. I used the TP from the packs to grab it, made one according the guide in this thread, and it was just destroying every mob that even looked at me. Are there any good builds for druid that I could run as a half-elf?

TRed to level 1 a week or so ago and am only level 8, forgot how lovely low levels were. :/ Wish they'd just make the XP required to level the same for first lifers as it is for everyone else, even with a 50% pot constantly running thanks to cards it's tedious as hell. Gnomes can't come soon enough, don't really want to do a Sun Elf x3 PL for Warlock and really really really don't want to do 1-20 Warlocks either so it better be good.

I ran off to grab both standard editions after reading this page; thanks! One question, since I haven't played in a while - is there any way to tell which character has used a greater/lesser tome of learning? I don't want to try using one in case it vanishes, but I couldn't see it on my feats or similar.

Yeah there's a UI indicator for it: Woden posted:Wish they'd just make the XP required to level the same for first lifers as it is for everyone else, even with a 50% pot constantly running thanks to cards it's tedious as hell. I don't really find it tedious (15-20 anyways, only ITR) but at the same time I think the reason they made it require extra experience doesn't really apply anymore. And they didn't make it the case for epic levels even if you're ITRing. There's 42 past lives to get triple completionist. Even 14 is a significant investment. And then epic past lives on top of that. There's never going to be enough for the truly hardcore, and 42+ lives is plenty of end game for most normal people doing TRing instead of raiding. I do wish they'd at least give you the option of doing a full rebuild when doing ETRing instead of just a LR. DemonMage fucked around with this message at 10:11 on Nov 30, 2015 |

Not sure if it was mentioned if you bought raid bypasses in the not so distant past you can reclaim those for TP, when level 30 hits they wont work for level 30+ raids where you'll need the new extreme edition bypasses. Old bypasses will still work fine for old content though.DemonMage posted:Yeah there's a UI indicator for it: It's the level 1-10 so far that's been making GBS threads me, 15-20 is mostly fine. Like I do 20 quests that are all 20 secs to 3 mins long for piddly XP, there's also hardly anyone posting LFMs for me to be able to jump in and out of TR trains so boring repetitive crap. Oh then there's the 30 sec haste pots, CSW pots and like once cleave attack which are the only buttons I press til level 6. This is probably my 20-30th(if you include TP farmers and deleted experimental builds) life where I started from level one so probably just jaded and bored of it all. Haven't been to level 1 in probably two years and thought it'd be fun, I was wrong. Also you kinda have to do almost all the quests at low level(1-4 or so, after that it ain't that strict) if you want to do the one and done bravery thing, I gave up on that at level 6 though and did the pit and other things to mix it up, hopefully with the whole xp pen for repeats gone now it wont bite me too hard later on. Noricae posted:Crap! I just realized that the UI won't display a Greater normal tome if you're in your epic levels, so none of my characters had the little book I vaguely remembered. Thanks Don't think it has yet, doesn't Turbine have some week long sale where each day they have some big price drop near the end of the year? I remember picking up half orc which I'll probably never play for like 120 TP or something insane a and similar deal with half elf around this time last year, I'd really like Warlock and shared storage/collectables to get some similar treatment so am gong to hold out for a bit.

That end of the year sale sounds right yeah. You can also just sub as VIP and get access to Warlocks in the interim ($30 = 3 months + 1500 TP which isn't bad), though I guess that might mess with buying Warlocks on sale? Not sure if they ever got that straightened out. Waiting until the new year isn't a horrible idea though if you don't mind the chance of them not going on sale. They're slow to put new classes on sale because they make good money on them (not a surprise since they're a legit interesting option). Also while they've said this before more or less I think, it's nice to see it so explicitly: quote:We have plans to fix all handwraps in the entirety of DDO by making them behave more like all other weapons in the game do. It is because handwraps are considered special and different that there have been so many bugs in the past. It's unfortunate that it's a great deal of work to fix, but it is a large fix across many items and systems (so it takes time no matter what, and extra time to make sure we get it right since it's complicated). Once we do that, we can make new handwraps and handwrap abilities the same as other items and combat styles, instead of having to make special cases for them each time. Then those items will be faster to make and with greatly reduced chance of having bugs (or, at least, the bugs won't just be for handwraps!) No timeframe, but that should be cool when it hits. Wish they'd add a way to let you get scaling H2H on other characters too, I think monks are interesting enough with their active abilities (though I think the combo system is kinda meh) that they should focus on that for making them worth building. Now if only they'd get rid of docents so they wouldn't have to worry about armor parity and pissing off large groups of people. Just let them equip everything and scale the AC based off body feats like it does now. DemonMage fucked around with this message at 08:52 on Dec 1, 2015 |

They've been trying to fix handwraps for years now though, haven't they. Nice that they put a message out to show that it's still an ongoing process rather than something they've given up on. Also the combo system is cool theoretically but it's way too many buttons to do anything other than a couple combos, though. The only combos I do are lightx3, earth x3 and E-L-E. I couldn't imagine having all 4 elements + light/dark and actually weaving them for combos.

It's also a problem of it's just super finicky and lots of innocuous actions break your combos (had to open a door/use a lever? sucks to be you). And the combo results are just not that enticing, like I'd rather they let you spec into abilities and make them easier to use and better or last longer or something. Some of the buffs are okay, but having to put forth the effort every minute for a moderate buff (at best) is just irritating. It's like being a haste/displace (when you could cast on others) buffbot but far more annoying. And then the debuffs are either meh and/or have lovely DCs. Like there's a really solid idea there, but it just needs to be updated and easier to deal with. [Edit] Basically I feel the UI/interacting with the UI (the way inputs are queued and dealt with and such, plus doors/etc) is a direct impediment to effort monking and then on top of that what you get for doing so is lackluster. I wound up using Fist of Iron, E-E-E, L-L-L, Every Light Casts a Shadow a ton, and very little anything else. Elemental Curative is a good example of a nice change, it just gives something awesome to a thing you're likely to use anyways.[/Edit] And they've been wanting to do stuff with handwraps but the answer is always "it's a huge mess, we'll get to it someday". Which to be fair is kind of what's said here, but it sounds like they want to make it more of a priority so it's one less thing to worry about going forward. However they've got all the level 30 poo poo to worry about first. DemonMage fucked around with this message at 09:49 on Dec 1, 2015 |

And it gets worse when you have a bazillion clickies, cleave attacks, boosts and the like from ED's, tactics like stuns, and quivering palm. I already hate LD because of the constant cleaving and watching your hotbars to see if something comes off cool down early, adding monk pianoing to that would be a nightmare. Think I posted my punchy clonk in this thread where I had every hotbar filled, so glad not to be playing anything like that any more. No idea how they'll fix wraps and not also keep a lot of the "doesn't work with hand wraps" stuff though, will probably be the hardest thing yet for them to balance if they also want it to be multiclass friendly. If they just go with the usual super powerful 18/20 cores I'll be very sad.

So looks like December is going to have 4 weeks of deals, week one: 35% off Warlock Class, 75% off Sovereign Guild Renown Elixirs, 50% off Ingredient Bags and Temple of Elemental Evil! There's the normal sale too, 20% off slayer pots, jewels of fortune and shared storage. Not sure if I should hold out on shared storage in the hope that weeks 2-4 have better deals or not, Turbine isn't the best at planning these sorts of things.

Should be interesting. Will make looting chests in regular quests potentially exciting again, and with the extra power up thing it's sorta Diablo-like, which is probably better for long term health. Raid loot and other unique items have guaranteed powerful effects, but if you found the absolute perfect rare or have a weak slot a good random item could be a powerful boost to a specific aspect (like your casting or DPS stat). Plus they wanted to get this out of the way before doing the crafting system rework, since it ties together. THAT could be cool. Also they said loot boosts will increase loot level like normal... I'm wondering if that fucks with the ML or not. It would be legit cool and not overly Pay to Win if you could use a +2 gem and get Power Level 14, ML12 loot from a level 12 quest. Basically built in Extra Lucky Loot that could potentially stack with it. That would make that interesting again since they stopped being useful for letting you get +5 tomes out of EH quests. And Legendary Greensteel is going to be ML26 for weapons and accessories  (I'd still prefer lower, but that's 4 levels of use while TRing). There's supposed to be a post up about it later today (Friday).

Probably would gently caress with it, I mean you can get up to +7 loot level ATM so it'd be kinda crazy. Best way to do that would probably just have a higher chance of wondrous/cursed items the higher the chest level is compared to character level but keep the item at quest level. So a level 5 dude doing a level 20 quest with loot gem gets level 20 gear but +17 however you want to math it to chance at wondrous items, still exploitable with challenges and stuff though.

To be fair 90% of them aren't useful right now anyways. And most of the ones that are take a ton of effort to get and will still be good after the revamp for their unique effects. And yeah, that's true. Not having to blow a tiny amount of TP on keeping gems up is better than a "TP tax" to get the best loot. It's just kinda frustrating they're not worth giving a poo poo about when you "win" them in daily dice. quote:Existing loot boosts will work as they have in the past by rolling on a higher treasure table.

Just sad to see more named gear get relegated to the trash, like any heroic item with two useful abilities that are on the lootgen list is beaten by lootgen. That's a crap load it items and will sting some epic ones too. Gems will still be alright, you can zerg farm easier quests for random loot. Slightly different but still similar to what XP and renown gems do, allow you to get the same poo poo in a shorter amount of time.

I'd much rather see named loot be more interesting, and if this pushes them towards that I'm all for it. While the Torc (and SP potions) were a mistake for game balance for many years and to a lesser degree still are, I miss named loot like that. Which is why I'm glad to see Legendary Greensteel as that was pretty interesting too. Give unique items unique effects, make me want to seek them out for that. Though I'm sure they'll just continue to be 4-6 affixes of good power instead, which still makes them super useful since giving up a little stat to free up two slots is rarely a bad thing. [Edit] Woden posted:Gems will still be alright, you can zerg farm easier quests for random loot.

Renown/XP potions can be saved until you have all Saga's ready to turn in (there's another system they need to remember to add poo poo to...) and then still have them running for whatever random poo poo you do after. As is I pop loot gems when I get them, but they're just... there. Have to see how much the random loot will help with my 20-30 non-weapon TR kit, I mean the goal is to get vets like me/us excited about random chests again. Here's hoping they get it right.

If you can get better poo poo off the AH then you're killing doing not only raids which generally have better items at their level, but also other named items and it just becomes a XP/min thing from 1-20 and maybe beyond.

Greensteel post is up. [Edit] As is the U29 items post, some nice stuff here. [/Edit]quote:Play Update 29 quests & raids, collecting ingredients. This includes all 3 raids - yes, Legendary Hound of Xoriat and Legendary Tempest Spine provide indirect access to Legendary Green Steel ingredients. (There's some extra steps here because we don't want to simply drop Devil Scales for players who might not even own the Vale and aren't going to be crafting LGS.) We currently plan for Tier 1 and Tier 2 ingredients to be found in various quests. Tier 3 ingredients will only drop in the Shroud. Glad to hear this, not crazy about tier 3 being raid only but that's because normal greensteel isn't that great until Tier 3. Maybe this time Tier 1/2 will be worth caring about too. But them adding shroud ingredients to more places and especially non raid quests was a huge good step back in the day. quote:Craft Legendary Green Steel Augments (LGSA). I think this is a really good way to go about it. Also Codex Runes are used to craft blanks and remove Taint. There's no 20th list here. quote:Handwraps are not included in Legendary Green Steel in Update 29. We wanted to get the revamp of handwrap technology in for Update 29, but that's a fairly massive task and just couldn't be done. We understand this is quite frustrating for some players. No surprise there. quote:For both design and technical reasons, we're removing the tier 2 Bonus Effects per se. There's no special bonus for what you put into the tier 1 and tier 2 slots (not public, not secret). Loses some of the flavor, I guess, but overall I think it's the right choice. quote:Tier 3 "Bonus" Effects etc. And there the flavor is back anyways. quote:We currently plan for any extractor to be in the store only. You can slot a new LGSA over an existing LGSA in that slot, destroying the existing augment, without having to rebuild the entire weapon (as you must do in Heroic Green Steel). Eh. Fair I guess. Works like existing augments, pay TP to get it back instantly, or farm up another one instead.

NEW: Archmage's Arcane Bolt and Arcane Blast SLAs now scale with Spell Power at the normal rate (rather than 50%.)

Sounds pretty great, it's like they've fixed all the problems that GS had and just made it better across the board. Shame about ingredients being bound though, jewellers kits not working for them and also going into augment bags. Already have one huge and two large bags that are mostly full of augs.

Wow, that post answers most of my questions that I had about the random loot gen revamp. No news about Cannith crafting revamp right? I'd also love a downconvert of some sort to normal greensteel ingredients, in case you'd want to make twink gear. (Also yesssss, grabbed Warlock and ToEE... now just a few more recent adventure packs need to go on sale before I have time to play in a couple of weeks.) The Archmage updates sound fantastic!

Standing news on crafting is the loot revamp had to come first and it's something they want to do but it's not a priority. So it's easy for others things to delay it, but it's something they're working on in theory.

Like the greensteel handwraps that have to wait for a handwrap revamp before being added. And they're working on it Suuure they are.

Logged on to lamannia to check things out, so far it looks like: Tier 1 weapons: 150 spell power 6d6 damage(negative/holy flag the weapon as good/evil) 14 stat 35 enhancement bonus to MRR 25% enhancement bonus to elemental absorption 30 enhancement bonus to healing amp Tier 2 weapons: 37 quality spell power elemental burst, no idea on damage(flags evil/good) | damage seems a little less that 100 with 53 melee power 7 insightful stat 9 quality MRR 30% enhancement bonus elemental absorption 50 equip bonus to healing amp Weapons tier 3: 37 exceptional spell power elemental blast, no idea on damage(flags evil/good) | damage is 6d120 on vorpal. 2 exceptional stat 9 exceptional MRR 35% enhancement bonus to elemental absorption 70 competence bonus to healing amp Lots of doubling up on things like MRR so they're hopefully place holder, also no equipment bonuses yet nor clickies or tier 3 bonus for dual sharding. Oh the other raid items are all broken so can't really get a feel for them. Edit: only tested the burst/blast for a minute, so numbers are very off.

I guess i don't have to worry about making two legendary greensteel weapons since handwraps aren't going to be in. Which I'm oddly okay with considering I've already got quite a few handwraps I swap between, including a tier 2 tforged. It will be nice finally switching out to something else instead of pinion on my archer. I was looking at the bow from ToEE but the likelihood of getting that to drop seems low.
