Rift

[Afran]

Actually I have removed some of the posts as they were crap and I will remove more.

Keep it on topic please.

Hmm I think I can see an unused Warhammer section that could be turned into a Rift section

 

[eksdee]

Do you happen to play a dwarf called Zippo? or not on shivermere server, eksdee?

Nah I'm on Whitefall - Miri Guardian Mage, Mirii Defiant Mage . Playing Defiant actively as there is tonnes of OPvP to have as Defiant, but zero as Guardian.

 

[rynnor]

So what specs are people rolling out for PvP?

Mine [cleric solo melee]

Absolutely awesome solo spec. 3 second silence, snare, spell interrupt, 2 mana regens & a lot of different heals.

Freaky - thats fairly close to my levelling spec - I love the orbs for pvp plus stacking regens and the shields makes you pretty durable for emergencies.

I have druid as my third (largely unused soul) but will try Templar next.

Think its possible to source your gear purely from PvP? I cant find a level 25 pvp merchant 2 hander yet?

Anyone on an EU server and got a guild I can join? server doesn't matter, I'll be making a new character probably, on US servers with some american friends at the moment but most raids are like 3-4am my time ;/

 

[Afran]

Be welcome to join "Faithless" on Shivermere, Defiant. We're a small guild but all a friendly bunch :]

 

[ileks]

Just logged in and my account has been fucking hacked. All my stuff is gone >.<

Never had this with any MMO/game before... I've changed my password on my email/the game. Is there anything else I need to do? Will do a full Avast virus scan later.

 

[Afran]

how'd that happen with coin lock? Oo must have got your email login details too?

 

[ileks]

That's what worries me. Will have to format the hard drive to be safe I guess.

 

[rynnor]

You didnt use your email password as your game password right?

 

[Ctuchik]

That's what worries me. Will have to format the hard drive to be safe I guess.

depends how "smart" they keylogger is.

if you want to be guaranteed safe then you need a new motherboard and hard drives

Seem to remember reading somewhere that certain keyloggers can prevent getting deleted in a format and/or attach themselves in the bios.

someone here will probably know for sure tho.

But yes, they would need to get the email PW as well now so you deffo have something on your PC unless you use the same PW for both...

I was going to give this a go this weekend but not sure I will bother now, people getting bored already, security issues etc. Shame, from doing a bit of research into it, it looks pretty good fun.

 

[ECA]

My entire guild came to play rift, and pretty much quit in <3 weeks. It just isn't what it was advertised as once you hit 50.

 

[Afran]

Dunno, I'm still enjoying it... Just waiting for other people I play with to get their ass to 50

 

[Bugz]

Some email providers let you see where your email account was last accessed from.

May be a good starting place to unravelling your mystery.

In the same boat as you, have held off buying dispite the fact i have the urge to just buy it off steam everytime i see it.

I'll see if i can hold out longer, it does look fun though but it seems for some people the honey moon period is wearing thin.

I'm taking a little break myself, simply because of the lack of pvp endgame. In every other aspect I enjoyed the game more than I have any other MMO I've played. It really just needs a with no rifts and 50's only!

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

Got to 50 a couple of days ago. Rather like Port Scion but other than one visit it never pops for us, at least when I've been queing.

One of the traps in Abyssal Precipice is possibly the best trap in any game anywhere ever. I was in tears laughing. It invovles wabbits.

One thing I think is awesome is the way that roles need to be switched on the fly in dungeons. Finding that we can mosey through most of an expert dungeon with one healer but some bosses target the healer for CC so a support healer is needed for particular fights. This is a nice twist on the standard way of dungeoneering. We did most of Iron Tombs last night with a rogue tanking.

Server population seems quiet. I truly hate the server capping system that these companies use in headstart and the early days because the fallout seems to always be this - lots of low/med population servers with annoyed people that are having difficulty getting/creating groups for dungeons.

...which is why we put up with the queues on Whitefall. Still getting loads of action at prime time and all weekend, insta pops on Warfronts and /5 is spammed with people LFG for experts. No idea what it's like during the days since I work 9-5, but I imagine it's not much different.

I completely agree though, the whole server capping thing is a joke. That said, we're STILL getting server lag at peak times on Whitefall which to me is pretty surprising given how much server load testing they did coupled with how many MMOs have suffered the same problems - I refuse to believe there's no way around this.

I'm still really enjoying the game, even if there seems to be little to no competition in warfronts. The most fun we're having right now is teaming up with Llaw Arian to bomb the living hell out of raid rifts/Port Scion which is amazing Prestige/Favour gain - I've made just short of 100k in the past 2 nights. I posted a video of us doing this in the Rift thread in the RPGs section.

Loads of war fronts popping on Bloodiron as well the population aint an issue at all. Regularly find myself in with loads of old warhammer allies/enemies from Whitefall!

 

[ileks]

Rift is the best MMO I've played other than daoc tbh. It's the only one I've played for more than 2 weeks after release at least!

 

[Minidk]

no moc no fun

 

[Punishment]

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

1.1 Patch this afternoon. Rather looking forward to the minor warlock changes it contains and interested to see the event stuff.

 

[Bugz]

Noticed that when submitting a ticket if you don't tell them you wish to keep it open, they assume you've solved it and close it for you?!

Cheeky beggars.

 

[Aada]

Well i bought it downloading on steam now i figure £30 isn't much if it gives me 50+ hours of gameplay before i get bored.

Gonna make a Necromancer fancy a pet class.

 

[georgie]

He's?

 

[old.Tohtori]

Isn't that enough Georgie? Why can't it just be "He's."

He is is a completely reasonable argument.

 

[georgie]

It's quite profound, isn't it...

 

[old.Tohtori]

I think it's up there with "I am" and "Who?"
