It's great that these patches were made but we can't lose steam, what are the next things to look at? Some easy - not allowing mail to be sent with enemy in local - not able to Karma to a deed if enemy are in the deeds local etc etc etc Some harder - Valrei tombs %'s - deed defence/deed offense., etcc etc etc Edited May 4, 2016 by Mclovin 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 4, 2016 like the changes now if only there was more Wiki info on PVP side of the coin, so newbies or sorta newbies like myself could learn a bit before being slaughtered on sight from an enemy Vet.. and yes there are players to help out but its still a long crawl coming from PVE to PVP and making it a plausible choice..

Posted May 5, 2016 I assume the catapult/modify building thing only applies to PvE servers, and/or on-deed on PvP? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Noted. The PvP side of the Wiki is a mess thanks to a decade of bad info, rumors, mechanics changes, and people just not knowing how to test stuff properly before spouting it as fact, so it'll be a bit of a project cleaning it all up. But I agree, we need to make that info more accessible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully this is only a bandaid until armor is rebalanced and proper face protection becomes available on other armor tiers? Don't get me wrong, I'm glad there's an effort to make archery and lighter armor more usable. But people in leather running around with buckets on their heads just look dumb. Grinding platesmithing and making steel should only be a requirement if you actually intend to wear plate, and not because you're being forced into it by unfinished and unbalanced game mechanics.

So, how will keeping negative alignment be easier? Maybe some details?

It is only effective in PvP IF you have an opponent who is a priest, and then IF they like to use the direct damage spells instead of the AoE ones and IF they don't know you have the immunity THEN you might get to use the immunity. What actually happens is that they know you have it so either cast an AoE on you and others around you or single target someone else in your place. I don't think the devs could have chosen a more specifically situational buff in this game if they tried. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think the devs could have chosen a more specifically situational buff in this game if they tried. Situational is how different features should be, not ubiquitous. That's a huge part of the reason for the nerf to gone. I'm glad the change is forcing some people to reconsider med paths. That means we're on the right path to getting balance fixed. However, I'm not sure how many of these reactions are actually logical and well-thought-out as opposed to how many are knee-jerk overreactions. Either way, it's still good to possibly see some diversity in meditation paths. Let's keep it going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
