Overall impressions of DR and what new spells have you gone for in RvR?

[xxManiacxx]

acctualy useing champ weapon and few epic items on new temp on druid.... + it has 50% power regen (mcl2?)

56% powerpool, 10 cast speed, 101 dex, 101 emp........

let me guess epic sleeves and leggings?

Think I am using the same template on my druid

 

[AngelHeal]

DR ROX:
because: no major impact.
clxp isnt hard 2 get.
cl abilitys arent overpowerd
horses are awesom (when with armor etc)
epic rox
the quests are pretty funny
u dont need it to compete in rvr.

DR sux:
because: 19€ for a horsie, that disapears when in combat.
For a horsie, that laggs 20m after a jump
I just finished phoeb harp xp, and now I can xp again!!

so overal i give it a 8


(guy's bear in mind, that for mythic this patch was super)

possible...

back to the post

yeah dr is a good expansion. tho somethings i dont like, like a hero healing.... or when i saw a druid melee (useing styles) in combat... was bit ...o0

new epics are rox...
champ weapons for some classes are soo good (like my druid)
new citys looks rox... but it needs a way too good comp to run smoothly.
horses... good, alltho i doubt im gonna spend 15p on a cool looking horse. 1p one will do fine atm.
co5 bosses look great... tho legion looks the same (about)
co5 is easy to do but the instance after it is WAY to hard to get into whit 1 fg. u need to get 2fg or so to even get close. (as much as i have tryd)

it aint perfect but never the less its a good expansion.

 

[Donledirse]

DR is a nice addition, give more options for template building (some of the DR drops are very nice, especially the legion one time drop items everyone gets).

Epic armours look great and so do the champ wpns, sub spec abilities aren't really overpowered. Just give you some new toys to play with, and horses are just like boats in toa, look nice and make travelling easier.

One thing to note aswell that I noticed last night, you can see the name of peoples horses, when you examine them in frontiers. So be careful what you call yours

 

[Ogen]

I think its allright. I wish they would allow dex and castspeed bonus to effect the spells you get from DR subclassing tho. Having a low group heal might be kinda cool, but it does kinda suck when it takes 2.5 sec to cast. Makes it 100% useless imho. Resists and melee insta buff might be allright tho. But still.

 

[xxManiacxx]

DR gave my SB mucho hps

Why the fuck do ppl whine over CL xp? Either u like rvr, in which case u rvr and get the xp, or ure a pvenerd and will get the xp in pve instead. U dont have to grind something u dont like to get ure xp.

try doing that as a rr2 hunter
and most of the quests after cl3 midway are a farming grind anyway,
just look at cl5 .. dark spire reincarnated

have you done the quests?

Cl5 is not a quest... I assume you meant Co5 or Circle of Five?

There are three chapters. You can do the entire thing with a group. It'll take you all of 3 evenings if you take your time over it.

If you can't be arsed with it you can ding CL5 from doing _anything_ other than crafting.

I really do worry about some people - how about instead of having an expansion we have a button that you press to get the new abilities.

And in fact we can replace that crappy RvR with the same thing, button for RPs please!
(and shh! no warlock jokes)

If you can't be arsed with pve you can get them in RvR, if you can't be arsed with Rvr you can get them in PvE - if you find CLXP a problem or a hassle what exactly is it in daoc you enjoy doing?

I'm rather glad they aint ! Ho cast speed is sucks

i enjoy whining about expansions and patches!

ahh, ok they need to put in a way to get CLXP doing this maybe based on the number of locked threads you get on FH...

hmm as im innocent all all FH crimes i wont get my CLxp. Apparently u get 4 billion CLXP for mod baiting in game. So if all log an alb a/c and perma spam FH mods then u will get to CL5 in no time

I hear fing loves recieving pm's from everyone, please make sure the spelling is bad and the sentances are malformed. Then please make sure you complain about not getting a reply fast enough

I will ofc be pm'ing any officer in humberton guard tonight

CQ1 and 2 take 3h30-4hr30 hours depending on class and amount of people.

CQ3 takes ~ 4 hours total.

Didn't test them!

That's just walkthrough and alt-tabbing (and showing some initiative when it comes to binding/teleporting/zoning/suiciding)

Should a 'expansion' for a mmorpg really be able to be done in 3 nights?basically DR is a paid for patch.

 

[popa]

DR= easy @ 12 h play time to make the cl1 - 5 quest
horse or u is same target on rvr
cl spels dont affect by dex and cast speed
cl spels are the old one not new look

 

[illu]

Tried out a few more of the abilities last night.

The single heal line and the health regen are very nice.

The matter dot isn't bad either, but very situational.

I tried the dex and dex/qui debuffs which again were pretty nice, but they were resisted a few times which could be suicide against a caster.

When I get some time, I'm going to try and see if I can get a few bolts or something :> I think I saw a spell with some kind of crippling/garotte effect which might be useful again fast movers, or people running back to keeps. So many possibilities!

Dinged CL3 last night, so looking forward to testing more at CL4 and CL5.

answer me this then
how many times did you have to go to x place, farm x mob then come back dry rince repeat
First instance is in skona with the WW (or malmo with the drakulvs if you prefered).
As it happened i mistyped c3l5 (cl3 level 5 or cl3 quest 5 whatever you want to call it).
It is nothing original
it is nothing clever
it is >>boring<<

the ammount of real content in the expansion is nothing but a joke, but then its needed to compete so everyone gets it.
As said by many people including me, its just a patch which we have been charged for.
So the question back to you, have YOU done the expansion as farming clxp is nothing but a grind, as i have said before. I dont know what game you play because in daoc it is pretty much a pre-req to be toa'd, ml10, and now cl5 to even get "good" grps
What is so brilliant in this expansion that it was worth £15, that you dont/should have got anyway

And as it happened i liked TOA and didn't want the encounters made easier, there goes your easymode theory out the window

 

[Sharkith]

give flying mounts so warlocks can rain down fire from above

I like it as an expansion there are some really nice touhes in there.

 

[Sharkith]

And as it happened i liked TOA and didn't want the encounters made easier

you sick puppy!!

 

[duact]

If you compare how much content SI and TOA had against DR its pretty clear we should pay like 3euros for this expansion.

 

[Konah]

melee resists buff, 150ablative commonly available (new epics) 130heal procs commonly available (new epics) ... just more anti-melee bullshit... :kissit:

not bought DR no plans to atm either.
