Fewd posted:Has anyone figured out some tweak to get rid of bloom in this game? I usually use the /setoption commands to remove particles to improve performance in pvp and the raid. code:0-all particles, 1-only raid's particles, 2-only group's particles, 3-only your particles, 4-no particles. There are a dozen or so visual debug options which can be accessed using the /setoption, rather then write each one out the easiest way to view them is to type: code:code:code:Reset your GUI whenever your done making changes by using shift+ctrl+f1. The /reloadui command appears to reset all the changes back to the client defaults.  I recommend making a separate install of TSW if you are going to test a ton of things.Joel has said a few times that some of these are legacy Age of Conan commands, and are not supported by TSW. But the fact that the particle option does work, makes me think these debugs could also work.

If you disassemble a taco, you get a nacho. Where the filling goes, nobody knows. Maybe they ARE magic. Also I've found that hammer/shotgun is a godsend for tanking with lovely gear because between Stonewalled, Trucker, Defensive Turret, Shotgun Turret with Improved Blasts, and Raging Volcano, it's stupidly easy to just pile up a ton of zero-effort mitigation on really short cooldowns. On the other hand, its AoE threat is kind of sketchy if you can't slot raging volcano because Ground Pound doesn't give bonus threat and Grand Slam doesn't proc Breakdown on targets hit by the AoE.

Some guy told me I'm weird because my alt is same faction as my original character. What am I supposed to do if I got altitis and the two other factions don't appeal to me  Also, I must say I really missed Kirsten Geary. Someone should archive all the poo poo she says for future generations.

Phanatic posted:I've been away for a while, thinking of starting back up again since it went FTP. You're honestly probably not going to get a whole lot out of the game then. You can do the Issue 5 and 6 quest chains, and they're fantastic, but they're not going to take that long. All MMOs ultimately boil down to grinding dungeons to get swoler and swoler gear. There is no getting around this. MMOs are not for you in any kind of long term sense if this is a problem. Wait til Tokyo if you're gonna come back.

So I've got a really stupid newbie question: is there an upper limit on how many skill/ability points you can get/spend across all abilities? Or is that balanced out by the fact that you can't have more than 7 actives and 7 passives at once? I ask because I have a unique talent for finding the most useless specs and creating them, and this game seems like it'd be really easy to gimp yourself in with poor skill/ability point choices.

Its possible that you could make a unique snowflake that can not handle the content in the mid levels like Blue Mountain or Egypt, but the rate you can get AP is high enough that any mistakes you make can be turned around with a day of re-running older missions or hooking up with other goons and steam rolling the difficult content. You can, and eventually will, learn all the abilities in the game. So any mistakes you might think you made with a purchase now will most likely balance out later.

Sadly, I'm a clown and forgot to claim all four of them. I remembered when I logged off yesterday and couldn't be arsed to load London again (playing FF14 beta for a bit made TSW's loading times even more obviously terrible). Those pots are gone now. At least I got free boots, but this special weekend was a complete bust in my opinion. The special stuff was lame and they couldn't even be arsed to leave you the "rewards" if you didn't hit claim often enough  E: Also I'd like it if this game could stop getting me stuck on ladders. orcane fucked around with this message at 23:14 on Jun 17, 2013 |

Sorry if this has already been answered, but are there any more trial keys left to give out? I've been looking for a good MMO to sink my teeth into and would like to give this game a chance.

So today's lesson: Don't underestimate signets. My DPS build used to have a single minor throwaway blue signet, a single green Vigor, and that's all. I averaged about 1.5k DPS, which isn't that great. I threw in another blue minor, two blues on my weapons, and a green on my head today. My DPS has increased by somewhere between 30% and 60%, and I'm now clocking somewhere int he region of 2.3k fairly regularly. Hooray!

Ugh. I went to the official Lore forum. There are entire threads where people are just making stuff up. (And one thread where Ragnar posted after launch ) I'm definitely gonna make a wiki now. Please suggest domain names/titles, because I can't think of anything to register and I don't want to wait and see if the obvious domain names expire.

Council of Venice Database feels like the most obvious to me. If you don't mind going factional, then The Illuminati Archives/The Templar Library/The Dragon's Equations.

Ninja nerf discovered: Apparently you can completely avoid damage on Ur-Draug by running around a pillar because the Cleave windup is so slow that you'll LOS him before he finishes casting it. Your fun will be short-lived, however, because he'll eventually hit you with a 10-second uncleansable root with the tooltip "You've made the Ur-Draug mad!" and probably follow it up with Slam.

If someone is willing to put in the effort, then factional themes seem like a nice touch to make us the bestest on the internet. Skinnable websites have always struck me as that, "They really, REALLY do care about my browsing experience!" feeling. Also, do we have an active cabal? I just started replaying this for the second first time and now that I'm more willing to see it to the end, it'd be nice to know we have a goon presence more than a chat channel.

We have cabals for all factions but the thing is they're pretty much useless in this game. All you get out of that is a faction bank and cabal chat nobody uses. Chances are the few people who are on outside of US primetime aren't in the same cabal. Which is why all the action happens on Mumble or in awful chat. Maybe one day they implement cross-faction cabals, fix the cabal roles (as in make them customizable) and make cabals worth a drat.

There really is not a strong goon presence in TSW. There are maybe a dozen or so regular players and everyone else just kinda strolls in to see new content then disappears again. Maybe one day Funcom will give us something to keep people around, for now thats the state of the game. But there is an active cabal for each faction, using the ingame awful channel or mumble is an easy way to get an invite. Asking in mumble is always the best way to go about anything to play with goons, this is where we form up for lairs, dungeons and exp runs.
