Stoner in the group fucking shit up and/or surprise AFK at the wrong time is classic experience anyway, it’s what people signed up for
To be fair, I was about to logoff when they found my original corpse and had me tag along.

But... I was pretty stoned. Friday/Saturday nights I usually am.

That's a great patch. Things shaping up for the game to be in a great state when I come back to play a Troll Shaman.

My plan to draw dongs with copper all throughout Night Harbar thwarted... Just like that
It kills the poopsockers doing 12 hour parties and dropping copper to keep going

It also affects me too though as a necro. Just yesterday I had to leave my camp because I had 5000 copper

Some really solid changes. Min damage increase is nice. Were people rolling 1s at high level? lol

straight ratio will do that. Yeah it's like everything was a lightning skill with a retarded dmg range. Unless your skill has added flat to mitigate it.

Wrong, SKs never asked for our big bad 2h skill to now be double the cooldown…our whatever.

The rest is solid, the blind change is cool- mob essentially gropes around and if it finds something beats it up

The lead artist is literally obsessed with (and goes by the name) Goblins. Shit was screwed from the beginning

Does he say nonsense low T beta cucks still like “the lithe form is under represented in these male dominated spaces” and crap like “all the females having -Barbie- bodies is totally immersion ruining!”

Ill give it to luclin models, everyone got STACKED esp high elf females, whooooboy

And EVERYONE loved it

In theory it could be called a project management issue, given the examples of the Deep zones and their itemization. But mainly because the project management going into EA launch was 'we really need to get these zones in place, even if they're buggy and/or incomplete.' The focus was on the continuity of the world space for right or wrong, and standing Underdocks and AV up.

The designer working on Caves of Irem and Great Cavern Sea is more experienced than a lot of the other guys, so he's pretty fast (and can do both art/design). But between slamming the remaining zones in and focusing on trying to get the first pass on classes done, we weren't running all of the itemization through systems designers.

The issues that've popped up with some of the spawns, item balance, etc have all been really good for us internally, because it's led to us getting better auditing tooling in place, refreshing discussions about process, and helped the newer designers be more conscious of issues they may introduce.

With month 1 done (and the 20 patches that came with it), we're working on getting our processes less loosey-goosey.

I do expect everyone to do their job. But don't mistake that for not wanting (some degree of non-masturbatory) process, communication, auditing, testing, and working within frameworks we develop. 'Just, go make cool stuff' isn't the best framework and it bit us enough during Alpha/Beta. We've gotten better in these areas in the last 6 months, and I hope that'll continue to improve.

With that said, the work on running back through the classes (which I don't expect to be a 1-and-done thing), looking at foundation issues like TTK, how some of the stats are working, item distribution, etc... is all underway on the systems side.

Holy shit. Pretend you can find the comment I was responding to and that I've refreshed this page in the last day and a half.

Or just take it as the standard non-sequitur from me.

Sure Goblin has drawn a few goblin penises in the past, but if it makes you feel any better I just saw him giving feedback on the female troll that is in line with your area of focus.

Caves of Irem is my favorite zone both visually and the design of the whole thing. Going to the top with the maze is just beautiful
