Well I guess they had to put some stuff into it which would make people feel like they should buy it.

I mean ... there are no selling points in it otherwise ... who would want to go to Agramon & get repeatedly gank-farmed or make a toon which looks like a cow?

No-one I've spoken to has any intention of buying it.

Yep - the jewelry is very high utility. you can get very nice resists with just 3 items or so and there are mostly no "wasted" stats on these too. That's clearly overdone.

Dooooooomsayers said the same about SI, then TOA, then Cata, then DR, and yet they speaketh bullshit, or now its minotaurshit.

Every expansion has had its plus points, DR was the least one tho, but still it did have something to offer everyone. Anything new and exciting is a good thing, if people keep looking at these expansions with doooooooom in their minds, thats their loss. Ill be buying it, and my guild are looking forward to zerging inside the new dungeon.

It's nice but not really stupidly overpowered once you look at it more closely.
The most actual util anyone could get from it woult be 4 all melee and 3 other skills at 3. That makes it 65 util. Nice but there's other stuff just as good out there already. I'm sure people will be able to use it to tweak their templates slightly more, but it's not going to be any more of a radical change than the last several patches have brought us, and your not going to be disadvantaged using your old template in nearly the same way as ToA did. It just means people will find a way of upping some of the lesser done resists by 5 using the new stuff or getting an extra 5% powerpool or something.

yeah i agree totally, when i had a go at redoing my healer template with one of the drops it wasn't much different than before but i managed 25% buff bonus as fluff.

its worth the buy tbh, great expansion, good rvr, mino relics are ace, nice zone, mythic has done an ace job with the clients, next to know lag in a crowded dungeon with mass rvr.. good expansion

I pre-ordered all the expansions before this one, but I really don't see anything in this one for me. I've never been to Agramon & currently have no intention of ever doing so, & I don't want to roll a new toon which looks like a cow.

What the game needs right now (& has needed for a very long time, all IMHO OFC) is something which encourages the non/casual-RvRers to go out & RvR, & I really can't see it in this expansion. On the contrary, the hard-core RvRers will get all the cool stuff & become even more OPed which is hardly what you could call encouraging for the non/casual-RvRers.

Maybe I'm just missing something obvious (as usual), but if someone purposely wants to misconstrue what I'm saying as doom-saying then DOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!!!!1! :p

Possibly the fact that the new dungeon where all the casual PvE'ers will be wanting to hang out is now an RvR dungeon.
I'm hoping it's going to be like a crowded DF with all 3 realms having access, which is exactly what the game needs.

Well I very much hope you're right, but I have my doubts that the casual-RvRers/PvEers will want to go there at all.

Time will tell.

So, how many are playing on the English servers again? (as in, no - the french on Glaston doesn't count.)

i can tell you now it is, very crowded, each night around 60 of each realm in there, makes for some nice action and rp (32k in 1hr so far ;D)

Well said. Seems to me like a hybrid RvR / PvE - which has to be a Good Thing.

Anything that provides extra trophies can't be all bad...

Wouldn't be the same though with 20 Hibs, 40 Mids & 120 Albs would it?
