Just re-ate a bee.

Well, this seems like a vast improvement to me. Runs well on my lovely system where-as the old game chugged like hell. An actual tutorial now and the systems are far more intuitive. Combat is even fun.

Anyhow, I like the new system. It's fun.

Same. I've had this game sitting in my library for years because I tried it and the combat was just awful feeling. It's good now and I'm having fun swinging a sword around, or playing (and rigging) roulette with my pistols.

How old is your PC, cause I'm running this on a quad-core with 8 gigs of DDR2 RAM and a lovely ATI HD card and it runs really well now. I could barely run the old engine, let alone get it smooth.

remember that passives are simpler now. top three rows of passives are just one-off buffs to each ability. bottom two are the more interesting/weirder change-how-your-character-works-a-little ones, and even so I'm not sure I've seen much interaction between different passives.

Blood's are the most fun I've looked at so far, because it's got that mechanic where you kill yourself and a lot of the bottom two rows seem to be about making that either more or less dangerous depending on how you like to play.

Blade has some really good passives.

Just from reading around, apparently people in the original game took nothing just damage and crit talismans and glyphs. You need a much more balanced spread now it seems.

It's not there in Menu > Delivered Items? Should be a button there that says something like Claim TSW Items.

Classic TSW pugs were pretty toxic too far as I recall.

Really, it's like that in most games where everyone is personal advancement focused and only reluctantly work with other people because they're forced to.

Yeah, that kind of thing really isn't that different from any other MMO (or multiplayer game in general). People who are Dunning-Kruger incarnate that think they run the show. Hang with people you know and trust or tell them if they're going to salt then you're going to leave. Luckily this isn't poo poo like Everquest and WoW where doing so would get you blacklisted from higher content.

Not going to lie, but I am enjoying Fists for the healing/Damage versatility. Depending on what needed I can pop the appropriate rage skill and drop a bunch of damage or heals whenever is needed. So much more fun that Blades.

2500 Aurum will take any item to three pips in the Fusion section of the Uprgade inerface. If you have more than one character, it's not actually all that hard to run their dailies and dungeons, quickly accumulating the marks you need for Aurum exchange on the AH.

vvv: That too. You'd be lucky. A lot of the time though, any item at 3 pips worth anything is pretty extortionate.

So I can log in to my old many years dormant secret world account but can't see a way to link it to a secret world legends one. I was told I should just be able to log in with my old info on the legends site but no deal.

Do I just make a new legends account and then is there an option to link?

Is it even worth it? I hardly got any cosmetics on my old account that I remember, I think I just about finished Egypt back then.

It's definitely worth it for getting all the weapons and uniform sets associated with the classes for free.

Actually I think even the devs consider Blades somewhat underperforming and unsatisfying to use. They said they're looking into them. Personally I don't like how they're poo poo before you get your Chi Blade up, after which they start performing as well as the other weapons.
