  • __Psycoder said: I believe some of the ideas in this thread are valid, I also think some of mine will be a good addition despite the objections.   None of us has the data the devs have. So I suggest we keep brainstorming.  We know this muc…
  • keven2002 said: Side note... this is essentially just ATL right? Seems like all other shards there are plenty of spots to place a house. Any of these alternatives being pitched should only apply to Atlantic.  On most other shards you can …
  • keven2002 said: Just my 2 cents here.... but I liked the idea about just making the plot (replacing whatever was there) an auction. Make there be some sort of "house auction" NPC in Brit commons that allows people to see the plots and place t…
  • __Psycoder said: All of these ideas are good with three exceptions IMHO. Whomever got the house after the IDOC, should not be able to sell/transfer/demolish the house for 12 moths.Accounts must have been paid consecutively for the last 12 mon…
  • I have Chiv in the 80s for now and constantly fail at Enemy-of-One (minimum skill is 40 or 45). I'll probably dial Chivalry back to the 60s once I raise Bushido - I have no use for Noble Sacrifice (my Healing is nearly 105) as it usually gets me ki…
  • I have been trying the elixir when the gate is busted and we enter Mistas, and I definitely see I'm doing more damage to most of the commanders (and obviously the various reaver types). I feel like I'm consistently getting 4 artifacts at a time, ver…
  • Lokea said:   And don’t think in terms of gold sinks like some do - gold sinks should be ongoing and shouldn’t penalize causal players (and we should look at how some are generating new food everyday but that’s another thread).   Errrr...…
  • LilyGrace said: I trained it to close to GM ages ago, not really being sure how it would be applied or if I should even bother. I think for now I'll just go ahead and leave it on a stone rather than take the time to raise it higher or rearr…
  • @__Psycoder you have some solid ideas, but by making the bids more expensive the bigger the house, it perpetuates the problems we currently have, and prime spots will most likely eventually still go to the people you don’t want them to go to - they …
  • popps said: I think that the Design for gameplay should NOT tailored towards the hard core players but, rather, towards the casual players who usually cannot spend countless time at a game... That is at least how I see it. I think this event…

  • Cookie said: I see the phrase legitimate player so much. Is a legitimate player someone who pays for just 1 account, as I see so much, or is a legitimate player someone who pays for 5 accounts? The bias from the complainers is that it very mu…

  • Grimbeard said: Man we're ungrateful even if you only get it two runs that's 60 easy drops a day ... You can do one run a day and go through 10 ammo packs at the catapults and get nearly 30 drops (not counting rubble and void cubes).

  • It would be great if the event lasted a bit longer.  It's been a blast, even with reduced drops and no obelisk in sight.  I've gotten all of the rewards I wanted, and so I'm mainly playing for fun, but some players who have a more restricted playing…
  • keven2002 said: If you are looking for scorched rubble; that drops from the mobs/gates/chests in addition to stage 3. I'd guess that over half of mine came from those. Start hitting a few EQs or Thunderstorms when you are running to the next co…
  • I wonder if people realize you don't need a lot of players - the event scales up or down very nicely.  I've done some late-night runs with just 5-6 people and we've pulled it off without too much difficulty. The main thing is, starting out, only run…
  • creampie said: Nope you are totally wrong  No I'm not - nobody buys a house with the intent to sell it for less than they paid.  And if you're talking about gold sinks, if gold sinks worked, they would have put a lot more of them into the…
  • keven2002 said: Probably just going to chalk this up to the usual "RNG doesn't like me" and move along. The most I’m getting and have been getting since last month, with 1-3 runs a day, is void cubes,  I don’t know if that makes you feel…
  • Community Manager said: The team is still actively looking into this at this time. Thank you.  I had a rash of crashes last night relating to the commanders/boss mentioned, which was out of the ordinary (normally only one or two crashes in …
  • creampie said: not hey wont sell it higher than they paid and they are looking for gold sink best idea ever for it.  They will sell it for higher than they paid (it’s literally how they make money on it)  and they definitely won’t sell it …
  • username said:You really want people with tons of gold buying up every plot to resell at an even higher price? Nope. You can't have a bid system else we're back to square one where RMT is king. Entries should be a nominal fee or free. This. …
  • NikonUS said: Cost: Normal plots (18x18 or smaller): 500 million gold per ticket. or SOV's Keeps and Castles: 1 platinum (1P = 1 billion gold) per ticket. or SOV' So the goal is to cut out all but the wealthiest players and also…
  • Kyronix said:  An analysis of the house placement system following a house collapse is on our radar and any solution we implement will take the sentiments of these threads into consideration. For the love of Ultima, ditch the timer on th…
  • popps said: While 10+ per captain might perhaps be too much, 4 I think is way too little. They should make it like 6 per Commander, possibly 7 drops per Commander. So, if really some players were getting 15+ drops per Commander the fix was n…

  • ZyntharDraalVorlithia AnkhouHave all crashed me at least once in the past 5-6 days. Ankhou crashed me twice,  the solution is probably to turn off particle effects, but I sometimes rely on those to know when to run.
  • popps said: I mean, if this "fix" came with also a serious, working blocking of those players who script, bot and multibox then I could be OK with it... If it was about the multiboxers/scripters/bots we are all seeing, it should have wen…

  • __Psycoder said: Hmmmm, My understanding is that, they did not change the amount of drops you get from the captains. The captains should give 4 drops and now you get 4 drops. What they fixed was the bug that sometimes made captains give wrong…

  • username said: Play on a real shard like Atlantic and all the auto cheat bots auto attack them and kill them ALL before I can even get their bars.  You're welcome. See what I did there, dead shard players? I've seen dead shards, and LS is …
  • Pub 120 hot fixes tomorrow  Healers that spawn in the event area should no longer spawn as paragons and attack players.The Mawling adds from the Riftborn Monstrosity will now spawn with fewer hit points and resists, and spawn less often.
