Protip if you're in the AH and alt-tabbing a lot: If you click in the text box before you alt-tab, you won't close out your open windows.

Is it a single item that just drops or does each player need to complete a puzzle to make it happen?

I can't seem to find a TSWL info site or anything so I figured I'd ask here: How effectively can Blood, Elemental, and Chaos magic combine with eachother? I want to be as flashy as possible and not be a primary tank or primary healer. hybrid is fine tho

Pilchenstein posted:Am I thinking of the region bosses or something then? I'm sure I remember something requiring five people to summon. They required five people to summon every lair boss. But only one person needed to have the ritual to start it. There appears to be no puzzle pieces anymore as well as it looks like you just do the lair quest and then do the summon with five. Lairs are the source of signets so getting a five man group that can burn down 200k+ health mobs is the new life of things.

Or do they just keep getting better after a certain point?

Richard M Nixon posted:Or is there a 'link TSW account' or something similar under account services? You have to click that button. If the button isn't there (like in screenshot) then you've either linked it and somehow are bugged, or you're not using the same credentials. I still have the TSW Legacy Transfer button, but I have already clicked it and pressed confirm—just did it again—and it said "Your transfer has been completed successfully!". Nothing is showing up in-game despite using the same credentials, however.

Adding to this: You have a primary weapon and a secondary; you have to slot one 'basic' ability from your primary that doesn't use energy. Your secondary weapon gains energy at half the rate of your primary (which means it'd be nice to use a basic ability for your secondary, obviously). This leads to plenty of trap options like using a sword as your secondary- you'd charge your chi sword slower/less often, have to slot an ability to activate it, and then have half the energy to actually attack with your spirit blade as you would with a sword as your primary. Maybe there's some value in letting your chi tick over into the self heal with sword as your secondary.

Yeah I've been considering just stacking glance & defence on my trickster with attack talismans just to see what the outcome is. Well I'll need a hit one in there somewhere too I guess. My glyphs are currently a joke but I'll make that my plan once I'm in full purples.

Were old TSW accounts tied to Steam accounts? I tried logging in the standalone client with what I thought were my credentials, but even after clicking the "import from TSW" button under account I didn't unlock all the weapons. Either I remembered a different Funcom account or the transfer didn't work.

Is there any central guide to not screwing yourself over with glyphs? I'm planning to tank endgame content and I might spec in or out of Kneecapper, so I know I need some hit and some defense rating and some ??? but I have no idea how to allocate my actual talisman slots.

They'll be there though, waiting for you.

I was worried at first but figured it was probably behind a tutorial gate or something. Which fortunately ended up being correct. It would have been a good thing to put in the SWL FAQ (of course I was all the way into Kingsmouth before I realised I could get my stuff and others have said that you can collect it soon as you hit Agartha so I assume I was just slow on the uptake)

With my first character, I didn't even think about it until I heard people complaining in chat that the delivery was slow and didn't even look until I was a few quests in at Kingsmouth. My other two, I was missing a lot of the menu options until Agartha and whatever I was missing after that was available at Kingsmouth.

This isn't counting Hit of course, which both DPS and tanks need. One maxed out Intricate (3-pip) Hit glyph will cover your needs long term. Best way to get there seems to be a Simple (2-pip) Hit glyph on one piece of gear and an Intricate on another, taking them both to Mythic, and then fusing the Simple into the Intricate to take it to Legendary.

All I ever got from cache rewards were the new gamble box consolation prize currency (I can't be bothered checking what it buys) and upgrade consumables. That being said I'm quite happy to get the upgrade consumables. Actually I got one blue weapon, which I melted into the upgrade pot to see if it was worth doing. It wasn't. (obviously this is all from the month of patron I bought since I never lifetimed in Ye Olde TSW)

There's button at the bottom of the delivery box in Menu > Delivered Items that says something like Claim TSW Items. If that's not there when you hit Kingsmouth you got problems.
