As a person who has kind of struggled with Action Combat MMOs in the past, how bad is this game. Last one I tried was Neverwinter and it was meh. Well, that and there was an annoying bug where my Paladin would raise his shield like a Guardian and not trigger the aura. Tanking was less intuitive for me in an action combat setting.

How does this game handle such things?

Either way I'll be there on release, FREE GAME!

Well there you go Neverwinter is loving terrible

Hell, I would've bought some but they only take credit cars which is a thing that not nearly as big here as in the US. My mom has had one for twenty plus years and used it once so I never bothered getting one. Being lazy saved the day yet again.

Oh great I got to the town in Egypt and all the quests there seem to be broken, no cultist corpse to examine, not faction guy to hand my stuff to just unable to complete anything but sidequests.

Okay good it finally worked but the quest markers were way off. Also until I hit Egypt I was like ten levels over leveled for everything just because I did all the quests before I moved on. Still don't get why they even bothered with a level system when you're gonna hit max halfway through the story.

Honestly I've played the original and I've never had any of the problems I'm having now. Also I'm really loving tempted to just get my own cabal for the extra bank space because the size of your inventory is just insultingly small.

35 inventory slots because you have to pay aurum and at that point it's already 40 for five more. I would play the original for the reasonably priced inventory and sprint upgrades alone. I already left the goon cabal again because I ran out of space to keep poo poo around already. The bag situation is really not fun and a serious thing that can and will stop people from playing especially if you're trying to keep more gear sets around or just plain upgrade poo poo to max.

There are some quests that will take up a huge chunk of your inventory and if you forget or don't know they're coming up you're kind of hosed since you can't delete any items to make room for the quest poo poo you need. Honestly the inventory situation is plain unacceptable above all else that's wrong with it. In the other one I have 180 slots all bought with ingame money, not that you need that many but it lets me carry around a ton of fun items and most importantly alternate gear sets, you're not doing that here since even having one alternate set will eat up too much of your inventory.

It's twice that for the next five slots then it jumps straight to 400 aurum. Didn't spend that so I don't know what comes next but 400 aurum for five slots is loving highway robbery. I mean it comes down on how the exchange rates are that day but that doesn't change the fact that someone dropped real money for that and there's no way around it.

Yeah I traded for a dungeon weapon with another goon and it looks more like a European sword with some spikes and for some reason holes in it but everything is better than another loving Katana. It has great stats too but who cares about that.

You can't outlevel the last thee but I suspect you can solo them too when all your gear is mythic. So far increase in power has been insane from green to purple.

Considering I solo'd Polaris and ended up getting a case and a half of distillates for my trouble, mythic gear's going to be years in the coming.

Yeah I'm not arguing that, I'm in the purples myself and actual level increases for my gear come once in a blue loving moon but the difference is pretty substantial when it does. Usually it takes an expansion or two for that kind of power creep and it's kind of unprecedented for classic but it's not hard to figure out where this is heading.

You know you can just sell some of your extra poo poo for more anima shards when you're running low. I'm on purple and I sell everything not a sword because it's too expensive for very little progress. Although I am also trying to pump up my museum for the costumes and kick rear end gadgets.

That's pretty legit actually. I feel that for those missions the only thing that counts as cheating is looking for a TSW walkthrough. Anything else is role-playing and fair game.

No in this game it's meta so it totally flies.

No, the one in Neverwinter ruled since you could script it and run leadership crap in your browser to get free money literally. Then they took that out because everybody was getting free money and then it sucked.

Might as well ask here since googling around hasn't helped. I'm currently on and off going through the Tyler Freeborn quests. Everything's gone smoothly until the Orochi camp. It's as if the detection rate/range is through the roof. I've had it where after watching the orb patrols to make sure I'm not passing when an orb will turn around, I'll have one turn when it's not at it's turning point. Making sure I'm avoiding the blue search net doesn't seem to work unless I'm practically behind an orb that's passed by. I've also had it where I'm far away from an Orochi guy to where he's barely visible and still get busted. And it's been a mixed bag of when doing the keypad and an orb passes by on whether it sees me or not. Not helping either is I'm also seeing everyone's notice on the HFC alerts which has made it a bitch to try and figure out which one's applying to me with doing the blood sample gathering.

I ended up getting so fed up with how many times I've had to restart from how erratic getting busted's been and let the quest go paused to get other stuff done.

So, does anyone have any tips on what more I can do along with I'm trying to unpause the quest and with having one blood sample collected, not sure how far back I have to go to unpause it since going back to the laptop I got the gathering part from doesn't work.

Really? I've been so close to the bot things I could've touched the scanning beams with my tongue and the people only detect me when I wander by right in front of them. Could be a latency issue? If you want help I'll gladly team up with you to get that sorted out real quick.

Let me just mention here that the end game story dungeons are bugged to poo poo. Facility for example has a bug that the second to last boss puts a dot on you that lasts until you die. Same goes for the last boss but for the entire party. Our healer tried to keep us up but everybody constantly taking a hundred damage every second for no drat reason got us eventually. For gently caress's sake did anybody actually play test anything? I've been getting bugs in this I've never seen in my years of playing classic.

No i filled out all the quests before moving on. And it's not that hard to get to 50 and be confined to the last three dungeons, I hit 50 mid Egypt. And my point still stands, I encountered pretty much no bugs in classic and I've run into a hand full here. It's pretty baffling is all.

No, dungeon items are not special, they just have a signet built in which I guess is nice for now but signets will come down in price eventually and having a dungeon item instead of a free form may severely limit you in the long run unless it's something like my sword that gives extra chi on crit which will probably remain best in slot forever.
