Haha totaly agree , tho i must say i like some of the changes/new stuff

 

[Turamber]

Free master levels 1-5 for people from classic servers? What the hell is the point of that? I was looking forward to having more people to do ML raids/groups with. Back to grinding bounty points then.

[Litmus]

The bounty point jewelry and cloak items sold at the border keeps are now tradeable.
yey, i spent 3k bounty points the other day thinking i could trade them over to my hero.

 

[CorNokZ]

But when will patch be live!? WHEN!?!?!

 

[Twoeye]

Patience , patience you with the b-tt ugly avatar called CorN

 

[Everz]

I like it, but then like i said freeshard offer exactly the same for free , but.. theres really no accomplishment in doing anything in daoc anymore.

yeah but thats prolly a good way to get people to RvR more...

Like myself I hate and I mean HATE PvE so this is good news for me

Yeh, but even RvR is dumbed down to the point of stupidity, you fart and you get rr5, hell i've made 300k on my druid playing 2-3hrs casual a night.

 

[Rulke]

If you've got enough BPs to pay for ML1-10 + artis then you must have been playing for a good while, probably done ToA several (if not dozens) of times. It's really not such a fun expansion that I want to repeat it every time I fancy playing a new toon.

There will still be ML raids and I'll probably do most of the arti's the old way to save BPs so it's not like ToA is just gonna be deserted.

 

[Amphrax]

Well play something abit more challenging then like a solo tank and then you see how hard it is...

 

[Rulke]

Cba doing the maths but pretty sure you'd need to be a decent RR to afford all that

EDIT so i did the maths and 1-10 is 26475 BPs, so say on average you get 100bps for a solo kill thats still 265 kills for 1 toon to ML10

Check my gimpchimp.

It's pointless and i know it .

 

[Raven]

Playing a solo tank w/o speed is a total waste of time on US servers.

If challenge = not getting added on then its a bit of a shit challenge

Those will be tradeable? Yes? In that case im sure there will be plenty of ml tokens on cm's which means i can buy this shit instead. And thank fook for that.. Theres nothing more boring than going on an ml raid.

Actually it was quite good on US Classic, sure you had to live with people sometimes running over you, but then again you also had the fun of casual mass soloer battles when one person started to add and everything went "boom", haha ^^

 

[Raven]

Yeah, I heard that too, quite hopeful once we cluster there are a few soloers about

 

[Turamber]

I've been soloing a lot on my nature druid, but it is hard going. The odd full group will leave you alone, or offer somebody to fight you ... but they mostly just run over you.

Had some fun zerg surfing and bridge camping but there are very few soloers out there. And then of course there is the slight handicap of me not being very good

 

[Kami]

*rubs eyes* people still playing DAOC, kudos to you - at least you won't get skin cancer underground..

Bet it's still a damn sight better than Warhammer

 

[Rulke]

Here's something else better than WAR:

Liloe
Will you have a guild on Ywain Hib that would tolerate me as a member?
Was planning on re-subbing with my shade and champ once the mega-cluster thingy hits.

I will transfer my Hib chars, but I think I will play mostly alb =) Buuuuut I could also play my Ranger or Animist =)

But no matter in what guild, would nice nice to play with you again =)

indeed, guild i was in ran a gg at the witching hours - 4am-7am US east coast time. We were 3rd highest weekly RP on the entire cluster, for the weeks since i joined em. If 1 gg can get this with gimped MLs, half of the grp not even rr5...make you wonder what would be possible with a euro grp at us prime time...800k a week per player ?

Indeed, i did 8l2-->9 in a week of 2-3hrs play in pugs.. far to easy.

 

[Ctuchik]

Indeed, i did 8l2-->9 in a week of 2-3hrs play in pugs.. far to easy.

but thats 99% because of shit players, not so much because RP rewards have been increased.


heres an idea if ppl want a challence, run around in RoG gear (or even aurulite/DF gear), and no use of ML's/RA's/arties

then u will have atleast alittle chellenge

 

[Thadius]

I really want a new pc so I can roll a cabby with aoe dots ftw!
