Servers R Down, They R Finaly Patching!!!!

[Isgaroth&Ths]

was just wandering when will the servers go up to try the all the new thingies they gort ready for us this time, and one more thing if someone from GOA could give us the aprox time of the servers going online!!!!

 

[Jobil]

some GOA dude or webbie said somewhere in between 6-12 hours from start, prolly depends on how much coffee they need and if they can keep the frogs contained in the office and dont let them escape to run rampaging through the server room

 

[cemi0]

Isgaroth try visiting the official website

servers will be shut down around 8.30 AM and should reopen towards the end of the day.

Meaning maybe around 4-7 cet?

 

[Isgaroth&Ths]

[Jobil]

6-12 hours, i aint saying anymore! xD

i never bothered with simple ( or advanced) math so you're on your own

I challenge anyone to find anything negative about this patch Although more can always be done (and will, apparently) this patch actually is one of the few that only make stuff easier and more balanced as far as i can see.

Well for one, you can't flag yourself to receive free levels or not. You have no choice but to take them. This is an issue for people who level toons for a particular battleground, ding 24 and go train to receive lvl 25 as well. Or lets say you are 24, you just dinged RR1L2 and you want to spend a realmskill point. You visit the trainer, but in the meantime, 7 days have past since you dinged 24 and you got the free level popup a few days ago. You click on the trainer and poof! ==> Braemar!

It's also an issue for people who enjoy (yes they exist, I know some) levelling the normal way, maybe to feel it was entirely their achievment or because they just like it. And for roleplayers it can be an issue too

We have to wait a few patches to be able to flag for free level. I think it was 1.73

fellow gamers, the whine has begun, hurry get on the band wagon!!!

Only an alb would say that. Idiot.

Hunters are the only char in Mid with a charm spell, so how come we are limited to a level 41 unlike mincers, sorcs and their hib counterparts. Something thats been wrong since beta, so the band wagon as you call it is 3 years long.

 

[Acetylsalicylic]

Hopefully they won't be down very long as its such a good opportunity to download wow beta with all this free time and im sure goa/myself wouldn't want my agenda to 'wander' else where. Either way gl in a smooth patch update goa.

I thought that they were able to summon a pet? "Hunter's pet"?

insta cast pet > charm pet and lose instruments or cause the hassle of twisting

well you dont hear me bitching, moaning and crying about every little detail i disagree with in the game do you? baseline stun on chanters for one.
so whos the wanker exactly?

 

[Hansmoleman]

less more :wub:

because thats how it was designed?

minstrels are meant to be an active pet charm class (who lose most of their abilities when charming), sorcs are a permanent yellow pet charm class (if specced high enough in mind), hunters can charm a lower level pet to assist them in combat if they spec in beastcraft.

heaven forbid we have any diversity in the game (mumbles about aoe stun )

Yes, level 42.. doesnt compare to the ability to tame Battler (see VN boards) or any other 50+ nuking mob.

You started the whine statement, and you just carried it on (insert one of many random type words here). "QQ more" I think the term is

True, without wanting to go here (oops, seems we have ), mincers are renowned for having a few too many abilities (I know, I got one too ), with safe fall, speed, stealth, insta stun, health regen, power regen, degree in origami, etc etc..

Typical example:

Your pet hits the Frost stallion for 20 damage!
The Frost Stallion nukes the crap out of your pet for 700 damage!
You loose control of your pet
Your pet has died.

Anyway, back to the thread....

 

[Flimgoblin]

mincers have 10000 things that they can't do all at once

but it's more the "uberbuffed sicko pet" that's the problem.... charming wouldn't be so bad if you couldn't give your pets 90% absorb with some buffbot buffs...

taming battler - good way to die

"hey guys look this one is level sixtyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!"

that said a recast timer on the charm spell would stop the more silly high level charming - I think currently if you get a resist you just keep spamming the charm.

Amen, and dont forget the self buffing pets like in Molvik..
