The funny thing has always been SoE stance that "if we change combat / abilities now, we could upset the playerbase!". How about some forward thinking!? The game has some really amazing qualities, but the resounding failure and criticism has always been ability bloat. They didn't want to upset...

To be fair, this is the first peep that Pascal wasn't going consumer this 2Q'16. It's been on track for the last 6 months. This was the first news we have heard otherwise.

Oh, no doubt. As I said, it was RNG. We (Darkwind) were VERY close once pre-patch. Super lucky on the RNG.. until we weren't lucky. I wish I remembered exactly what the effect was. The patch removed / corrected it. We were 3rd to defeat it worldwide behind Afterlife and Township Rebellion.

The wait was because SoE didn't tune it properly and popular opinion was because PoTime was not finished. We had the strat down months before (fight half of them to a few %hp then mez, fight down the other half to low HP and offtank, then proceed to kill everything). The problem with version 1.0...

Yea, to even remotely have a shot at the seed requirements, you need to be an uploader with content before anyone else. There's pretty established groups / people that handle that. There's no way to compete.

I'm still bitter about being cockblocked by SoE on Rathe Council for 3 months. The "ship it and complete it / fix it later" mantra was well in effect.

I have about 110M Bonus Points. Saving for my Overlord Class. Though, I would never hit the seed requirements. Maybe in 10 years time.

I did forget they changed to some allowance. What was it, 85% rule?

We were specifically discussing MoTM "buffed" mobs, in reference to them being scaled up in power. I know if you right click and inspect MoTM on Velious mobs it is flat 40% reduction in spells and whatnot. (Whatever the actual % is). I am sure no one minds preventing the spawn in additional...

I just shudder at the thought of the chore of back-flagging a guild in PoP with MoTM buffed mobs. Rathe Council anyone?

I honestly thought the entire point of MoTM, at least initially, was to offset the mage armies of RF/LJ. Those servers were 100% contested open world, so yea MoTM was a necessary evil to thwart box armies just mowing through everything. Once you hit late PoP (PoTime) and expacs forward...

I'm with Tuco on this. New photo viewer is a piece of shit. Never heard of Irfanview. Anyone else have suggestions?

Hard explaining this stuff to friends. I have a maid, a gardener, and a guy that comes by once a week to wash my car. Granted, I do contract work and live in the middle east and labor is cheaper. If I mention to family back home I pay for all of this, they think I am some lazy rich guy. But when...

Mine is pretty generic, but I set my password to my phone number. So when friends visit and they ask the pw, its already stored in their phone contacts. I should clarify, my wifi password is my cell phone number. Not my house line number tied to the ISP.

Honestly, my reasons for staying is we get a shitload more loot as top raid guild with the faster respawns. I would give that up for Phinny community, but what I can't give up is my enjoyment of 6 boxing. I work odd hours and having the ability to go farm my own WW dragons for +6 stat necks, my...

They have already announced they are working on Luclin MoTM tuning right now. No idea if that will still carry over into PoP. Kinda pissed me off that ANY dev time is being spent on Luclin while Velious is already nearly two full weeks open and still broken.

A little Ragefire update. We pulled an all hands on deck raidforce Sunday with dps alts in tow. Massive force of two raids took nearly two hours to take Aaryonar down! We also took out a dozen or so other minors in NToV. Darkwind doing whatever it takes to get shit down, despite DBG with their...

Yea, I would even go as far as to say that in Luclin you could ignore all gear / content and I would argue simply having a tank with 500aa meant more than any other equipment upgrades. The AA grind in Luclin was slow as shit too, so to gain hundreds of AA was definitely out of reach for the...

I consider myself a fairly tech savvy guy, but never heard of this. I ran across an article today talking about "God Mode", which will open a folder with a ton of buried options that you don't have to go digging / searching for in Windows. Pretty nifty little trick. Just create a folder on...

I've got first hand experience with this. My 980 Ti at 1440p will noticeably dip in Witcher 3 with max settings.

I am sure I have mentioned before that Mc Donalds delivers to your house via online ordering here in Qatar. They have also been doing the double sandwiches for ages!

Nope, they are pals. (Makes no sense, as they should be on directly opposing faction)

This is the point. They already had to correct the problem once. Here they are repeating mistakes, yet again. I've just zero faith in what these devs are doing. Hope for the best, expect the worst.

And for clarity, this is happening in the main pick where the actual raid mobs spawn. (We have no raid instancing on Ragefire. It is all 100% contested) This is also a new thing with Velious. We sure as hell had 200+ people socking Trakanon back in the day. No idea why they have changed it now.

Forgot to mention, this is already happening on Ragefire. The caps are abysmally low, to the point that if you have a few groups armor farming or questing or whatever in Kael and a raid mob pops, you need to ooc and politely ask people to leave the zone so you can fit a raid force inside! If you...

The thing is, it CAN be done. Despite EQ2's mechanical flaws, some of the zones were pretty damn cool. If you played during Kunark, you could see modern versions of classic zones like Sebilis and Karnors. One of the most popular remakes was when they released the Estate of Unrest. From start to...

Hopefully DBG get their shit together in the coming xpacs. As I mentioned before, Ragefire is beta testing Velious for everyone. They have still yet to patch in the fixes for the broken mega-regen on mobs. The only killable targets currently are Vindi, Statue, KT (20-30min fight), Klandi...

If they consolidated all 3 zones into one Freeport, I might have swallowed it. But the fact they made the revamps these massive sprawling mazes and kept all of them? Such a clusterfuck.

PM me your email address.

Great summary.

I'd be curious to know how many of those $100 early access packs they actually sold for Landmark. I will fully admit, I was duped and bought into it. Played for a few days and decided world building wasn't my thing. Wish I had that money back. The only positive I will say is that it was a...

I actually laughed out loud when this came on screen this time around. I hadn't noticed it before Brutul mentioned it, but now I find it hilarious! Such a subtle dig by the producers. Well done!

No shit, roundabouts are great. People who don't know how to use them is what makes roundabouts frustrating. If there are is no traffic, you just blow right through them. But no, really, lets put a 4 way stop there and make every single vehicle stop for no fucking reason at all. Roundabouts...

None of you see an issue with "space tugs" to insert one of these priceless asteroids into earth orbit? What about the inevitable "Oops, we fucked up the trajectory because [insert human error here]. Asteroid is set to impact [insert country here]!"

The broken tuning has nothing to do with population. At least on Ragefire. There are 3 highly active raid guilds and a few other casuals. Hell, even the #2 and #3 guilds have had individual forces greater than the 72 man raid cap when contesting in the past. It wasn't long ago we had a 200+...

By the way, raid update for yesterday: We did a couple more Vindis, KT, Statue, and 1st broods. Apparently #2 guild (Trak and VP equipped) couldn't down Vindi either. Not sure if today's patch has addressed Velious tuning on Ragefire. I hadn't seen anything in the patch notes.

The stupid thing was, they put some of these mobs on test server for the last 2 or 3 weeks. They should have made a forced instance to test these targets though, because any swinging dick solo level 100+ whatever would just come through out of curiosity and wipe everything out of open zones. No...
