that person asked me for 25 plat for a mount not 5 minutes later, now that "we're a couple." gold digging whore!

also hedo/loracia/other tanks with t2 gear - how the gently caress are we supposed to deal with block softcap? i'm sitting at 49% block in paladin with a bunch of t1 gear and 6 t2 pieces (3 of which are accessories/a weapon). a lot of the stuff on the t2 bis list seems to have block on it, too. are we just going to have to grind out tons of FES and get lucky with the ultane legs? it seems prohibitively difficult to manage your stats as a tank this tier.

ABE: Always Be Endurance. Any other stat is pretty much added value. Keep in mind BiS lists don't take caps into account (Bowler Hat's used to but it overvalued evasion/block above endurance/armor).

Also: That's a first world problems, because I haven't even gotten an upgrade to my weapon/shield in uhh a year or so? We've never seen any cleric tanking relics.

I went cleric with a focus on justicar and I am having a blast with it. I find it kind of odd that they have a premade build that you have to choose when making a character, then it holds your hand while you level up. Anyone know if the premade builds are any good, or should I just be ignoring them?

Good enough for leveling, not good enough for endgame.

The game is stupidly optimized to the point that any feature that says "CPU Intensive" is going to be your biggest culprit as long as you have a semi-modern GPU.

Can't autoremove authenticator from old phone, click link provided for Customer Service. It wants me to log on, using my authenticator :(

Can't find the CS chat, somehow -- sent in a request for help. Which doesn't allow me to actually type my question/problem just asks me to provide things like my IP address.

What the hell Trion.

When you fail your authentication you can break out of the authenticator by answering your security questions, at least that's how it worked when I did mine.

Otherwise you gotta call em.

I would think that upto 30ish the initial event in KB would be king XP, specially since you can reset it and start it immediatelly. And GF has more easy-to-reset trash.

Why are you mixing tanking and DPS souls? Are you not paying attention to the "Gifts" from each soul? Hover over the soul icon in game (or in the soul tree links you posted) on the soul tree, the tooltip explains that every soul gets a different set of bonuses per-level.

Unfortunately the only thing you will do while focusing on Paladin is tanking, pre-Storm Legion you had the option to hybridize Justicar or even Chloro to do some serious healing and DPS/Support, but that option is long gone.

Stay away from Paladin for leveling. It offers very few good benefits and just slows you down. When you have enough cash for a second spec, then feel free to make a pure tanking build but for leveling you want a mixed Warlord/Champion build of which can be found here:
http://forums.riftgame.com/game-dis...-7-changes.html

Keep in mind lowbie dungeons have been nerfed to oblivion so Warlord tanking is mostly viable with a monkey as a healer. Unfortunately some pubbies are worse than monkeys at healing. Speaking from experience leveling Poobrain.

it's level 51 so you can powerlevel a warrior to 51 and go ham in pvp. the weapon dps is equivalent to a t1 relic.

So is everything on it, pretty sure the stats and hit are level 60 but the item is 51.

I have been having threat issues lately against t2 geared warriors getting lucky bursts (and relic tanking weapon procs take aggro off me like a fat kid taking a candy bar). It's not insurmountable, but if I am not paying attention to threat because of some other mechanic (or because I am worrying about my own health) then it's game over.

I've taken to taunting eggtenders almost constantly (every 10-12 seconds) just to make sure Vandee/Egeus don't shear aggro. A few times I had to run to find my healer (their fault) I lost aggro.

Does anyone know how they are crafted? What gathering professions are needed? Can someone give me a REX so I can buy another profession slot? I don't know whether I should dump my meager coffers into getting the BiS seal or REX to get a new profession slot for the new profession.

You break down artifacts to get the prime matter (ribbons) for it. The higher end ones take ribbons and corruscating shards.

Each orb has a 5% chance of being the BiS you want/need and a 20% chance of actually being useful.

You can manage with 0 conquest power, it's just a good chunk of free stats. It's also not strictly pvp, you can get conquest power by basically idling and moving your character once every so often and hiding that character in the out-of-the-zone area doing something else

IPP still works for hiding? Neat.

I'm fairly certain you are allotted a certain number of free drops, which then increase as you spend money.

quote:

What about free to play games like Team Fortress 2 or Dota 2?
Free to play games drop game cards based on your in-game purchasing. For every $9 USD spent (approximate) since the start of the Steam Trading Card Beta, you will earn one card drop. This card will drop at some point as you play. If you have made in-game purchases in Dota 2 or Team Fortress 2 prior to the Steam Trading Card Beta, or if you owned Team Fortress 2 prior to the Free to Play update, you will have 4 or 5 additional card drops available.

Why can't I post my acknowledgment of Trion releasing new content while stating that it's not enough to get me interested in the game again in an impertinent manner? Is criticism forbidden in this most positive comedy forums em em oh thread?

Actually the days you had issues the internet was imploding due to the BGPocalypse, your ISP was probably just slow to fix it's edge routers.

Or you were being routed through Cogent, who suck balls on a normal day.
