US Patch 1.76 - Nice Stuff Inside

[Andrilyn]

Just hope they increased the Cleric RR5 proc chance to 90% instead of 1% or something as it's still the most useless RA ever currently.

but its quite nice feature when an archer is shooting at you, gives you time to baseline stun him and start smiting

[Zil]

holy sh*t @ those prices!

but indeed a wicked patch,

rather pay a plat to fix artis then to lose em forever at some point

good job

 

[Tesla Monkor]

Looking forward to this too:



Hopefully LGM SCers won't be quite so rare anymore

Tbh, I don't think that this will make Alch or SCers any easier to find. Sure, the increased sell back is nice, but cash isn't exactly the problem these days.

SCing and in a lesser extend Alchemists are hard to find because it's boring, time consuming and misunderstood most of the time.

But hey, any crafter love is good love.

- Dwarf Berserkers will now shapechange into a smaller version of the bear model when Berserk ability is used.

Brill! Cute lil Carebears armed to the teeth running around!

And btw...

charge3 tanks dont take det, only non charge tanks take it

Isn't just tanks that have access to Det in NF.

 

[Tesla Monkor]

Oh, I just realised.. it's the sellback of the ingredients that is 95%. Not the crafted products. Whoops. Not that big a change then, since any crafter worth his or her salt doesn't overstock on ingredients anyway.

 

[Shike]

On a similar note, all the US servers are back on underpopulated bonusses for Midgard. Every single one.

no, merlin is still equal overall.

 

[Elricstormbringer]

Shame they don't allow players to repair artifacts; would save a small fortune based on those prices

 

[Heta]

how can ppl think that is alot of money?

pve'd 2 days this week and got out about 750p over 8ppl

 

[Bloodclot]

kk m8s! teddybearsofdoom!

 

[Heta]

ok, the wrecked the teddy

 

[Overdriven]

/agree

Presumably this is mainly from sold items gained from pve'ing (ie. Scrolls) rather than actual cash brought into the community? (If its not then gifv farming details!)

Surely there must be a danger with this new ubercosts which take money directly out of the economy, that we're actually going to run out of cash? Hmm I hope Albion doesn't become bankrupt, I'd hate to have to organise a Camelot guard rota because all the official guards have been laid off

 

[Awarkle]

i think you will find thats the reason for the high prices is to take money out of the system.

New det is broken, det5+stoicism (66% reduction) falls between original det 4 and 5 and det4/5 were massively overpowered.
Stoicism+det5+26% resist = 25% duration.
Stoicism+det5+26% resist = 17% duration.

Stuns will last 2 seconds tops. Mez will last typically 12-18 seconds. Go tanks.

 

[Comos]

With the secondary "caster" speed adjustment in 1.75, the highest caster speed, when used in combination with sprint, was faster than the highest Bard, Skald, or Minstrel speed. We did not intend for secondary speed users to be able to exceed the values received from primary speed users, so we are changing secondary caster speed values to compensate for primary speed values. Note that these values are still higher than the values before v1.75

Sometimes I wonder if Mythic tests ANYTHING before they implement it. Even everyone who replied to the post about 1.75 patch notes knew this.
But then again, "Introduce now, Nerf later!" seems to be Mythic's slogan.

 

[Ilum]

55% cc reduction still leaves mez effective.
its what, still a good 20-30 second long on a sorc mez.
Thats long enough for cc to do what its supposed to do, give you a good start.

79% with stoicism - which is 4% more than old det5. Determination will be the standard RA to take first again for tanks imo. And they will be pretty much CC immune - instas will only make them stop for a sec, the top mezzes will maybe last 6-10 seconds.

Good point, didn't notice that either

For SC'er:
Not on gems no, but of all the other ingredients I always buy a lot more, so I only need to buy a new gem when the crafted one isn't the right quality. I'm sure everyone does that ofcourse, since the cost price of the other ingredients is so low, it doesn't matter.

 

[Void959]

And on the seemingly large arti repair prices, somebody on VN boards made a very valid point:

"- Note that when repairing an artifact for the first time, durability loss will figure into the initial cost, as well as condition."

That might be why there's such high numbers coming from Pend. The durability on artifacts and other stuff is higher than 100%, so even though it might say 99% con, 100% durability, the artifact could really be at 99/100 con and 112/135 durability or something like that.
Anyone repaired an arti on pend then gone and hit stuff until it drops to 99 then repaired again?

stoicism doesn't stack additively it's multiplicatively

0.75*0.45=0.33 so a 76% reduction - pretty much what det 5 was before.

But bear in mind that unlike pre-NF hybrids also have access to det (but not stoicism).

Not all tanks will be able to afford it but the high RR ones will be damned nasty (not that they aren't already - especially the banelords)

in this tread the zerker with capped matter resist+red matter resist (testing vs shaman root) have 93% cc reduction, means that about every tank iwth stoicism and det5 in a fg will have betwen 80% and 90% cc reduction, doubt a casteble stun will last more then 1 sec on a det5 tank

Down with stuns!

depends on how you look at it really, casters will still dominate keeps, tanks will still dominate fieldRVR, not that much of a change really.

 

[Outlander]

its evening out a bit more now i think

 

[Ctuchik]

I still want to see a change in the friar-stats increase. We get strength, but that's utterly pointless, as we don't even use it except for encumbrance

the problem is that staffs use ONLY dex to calculate damage. having friars get dex as a primary stat would be a pretty bad idea. ur hitting hard enough as it is for a hybrid HEALER. besides, with the ToA bonuses its too easy anyway to cap + overcap stats these days. so i cant really see your point.


friars are hybrid healers. if u wanna hit hard(er) roll a merc.
