Looking forward to some nice battles with a few guilds on each side all carrying their banners into battle, its gonna look cool.

Is there some sort of bonus/reward for killing the banner carrier (or capturing the banner)??

You should be able to display captured banners in your guild house.......

basic Craft is 300 iirc :p

says 200 on the patch notes :p
BASIC CRAFTING

We are proud to introduce our Basic Crafting system. This system was designed and built with the new player in mind, as a means of introducing the new player to the craft system available in Dark Age of Camelot. Here is some more information on the system and how it works:

- All newly created characters, as well as existing characters which have not yet joined a crafting order, will be granted the Basic Crafting skill upon logging into the game.

- Since Basic Crafting is purely an introductory crafting system for new players, or existing players who haven't chosen a crafting order, recipes in this system are limited to samples of all of the original orders (tailoring, weaponcrafting, armorcrafting and fletching), up to items that require 200 points of skill. The Basic Crafting skill cannot exceed 200 points and if players reach that level, they are encouraged to choose one of the advanced crafting orders in order to proceed to recipes that exceed 200 points of skill.

- Spellcraft and Alchemy are excluded from the Basic Crafting order system.

- Players may choose another crafting order to have the Basic Crafting order replaced. When doing so, any skills shared between Basic Crafting and the new order will be transferred. Since Spellcrafting and Alchemy do not share any skills with Basic Crafting, in cases where the player chooses Spellcrafting or Alchemy as an advanced craft order, all of the Basic Crafting skills and sub-skills will be removed.

- While players will be granted the four original advanced crafting orders (tailoring, weaponcrafting, armorcrafting and fletching) along with Basic Crafting, those orders can never exceed the Basic Crafting skill level. If a player wishes to pursue an advanced crafting order instead of Basic Crafting, he must visit the appropriate advanced crafting trainer and have the Basic Crafting skill removed by selecting the advanced order.

10% magic buff for guild banners. Does that mean that it is better to have lots of small guilds so everyone can get the bonuses ? One death with the banner = it's lost for the day ?

Some nice little tweaks. About time they removed the power regen penalty. Been saying that for three years.

Hunters having a better evade than scouts! (taking pet into account) omg!

we used the 5% buff to xp when lvling up some new toons this last week, was awesome tbh. Gonna see how much the artibuff does soon. /Social rocks totally, its a really nice feature.

best patch yet is 1.79 though with the new emotes, you HAVE to see /rofl and /mememe , hilarious stuff :D Oh and Necros will LOVE 1.79, if you fail FP its up again next second, really nice.

kindof wrong, it isnt that cheap to summon banners.

And guildbuffs cost quite alot, 1000 meritpoints isnt a little amount so you really want a larger guild that can bump up alot of merits.

Yeah, they won't be inline with other archers until this patch, Scout and Ranger lvl3, Hunter lvl2. :p

But it means they'll have to find something else to moan about other then their evade now. :m00:

Down with DW penalty!!! :p

Oh yes, we dont get luxuries like spec in sheilds + MOB, we get a low level pet that just gets itself mezzed or runs round at random with poor utility, so why not :)

You can only have one banner effect on you at one time.
If you are not in the same guild as the banner owner it only has 50% effectiveness.
Everytime you lose the banner, you have to wait 24 hours to summon it again, and it costs more guild bounty points to summon.
So in summary, no you are best off if everyone in your group is in the same guild.

big patch that ;)


The Rar Positional Attach speed debuff we can get with a anytime move.

VW's get a 8 sec stun from a read move ( think it's not in a chain or anything).

Champs as well all know r0x0r with anhilation.

Don't know about the mid hybrid classes tbh , but i'm sure they have a easy stun to get off.

Friar's stun .. 3rd in a chain from the side. :touch:

as for the HoT, after reading www.drunkfriar.com it still doesn't give the benifiet it should. 'Tic's still heal alot better than the Friar as they usualy spec much higher in rej ( even if your not a b4ttl3 fr14r).

But still Giv more Friar lovin =) . Give back Dodgery.

Or Advanced Evade.

Friars already have a slow effect style. (defenders fury) Why not give that rear style an hindered effect?

And why the HoT fix? Fix that FAT+2 imo, givf Warden's FAT+4.

oh btw, will there be a respec given to friar because of this change?

What's this fixation with reputation all of a sudden? :p

If that's the thing, help me boost my forum e-peen by giving me reputation points! (Indeed, the little image that looks like this:

)
