Can we uh... get some sort of trade forum?

Purple Magic Resist on vamps gives what... 44 to secondary resists for... 45 seconds or a minute? It's pretty nasty to pop it against casters.

... and then they vanish and go AFK and jerk it in the trees til it's back up? That's what really gets to people. You get swarmed by invisible people and if you actually manage to overcome them they can vanish away. Granted, that isn't foolproo…

The sheer number of tools that Assassins have been given just seems utterly ridiculous.

Says something more about the mechanical design of things than the players themselves IMO. I feel that DAoC's Realm based RvR has suffered over the years through changes that, while they might improve things overall, hurt the original ideas and orig…

It's a self-defeating cycle. If you set up non-official social rules around 1v1/8v8 wherein you literally stop fighting to turn on any interlopers you are just going to piss people off - then those people will make it their mission to piss on you…

It's been awhile and I'd previously owned them - do you not need to buy into DAoC anymore? Just the monthly sub? I know the client itself was downloadable for free, but I had thought you still needed to buy and activate the game to your account.

Allowing people to spam heals from outside is probably the worst part of it IMO. Maybe its worth it's own thread instead of clogging up this one though
-
I'm sort of stunned that in a game where other classes have more legit problems as well as the game as a whole - we find ourselves on page two asking why an already excellent class can't have more. Insta DD shouts like a Bard? Pets? Ya'll got p…
-
I guess a better point is - how do you get people to actually engage and defend against these zergs? People keep complaining about 60+ people PvEing keeps but I'm fairly sure they'd rather be fighting people defending those keeps instead of jus…

I liked the idea of them, but they weren't really designed with the full spectrum of the game in mind. For the solo quest, mazes tend to be empty as of late. Going to the solo spots you encounter toxic wankery and bad fighting conditions for mo…

If I was responsible, I'd be embarrassed. Giving players the ability to grant quest credit to other players because... - triggers aren't clear - people for some reason LD constantly during PvE content - when they LD the systems a…

Haha, amusing thread. This happens pretty frequently as action at 10pm PST can be incredibly erratic. - Getting cheesed on by stealth zergs at every turn. - Not having enough people to for a coherent single full group while the Mids are…

Maybe I'm biased by what I play, but the most desired race/class combos are likely going to be favorable Dex/Physical size combos. I don't see to many people playing classes with high con - hitting your Dex caps on any class that needs it ultim…
-
Do you literally know that literally all they need is five minutes to do this? Quite the presumption. Lots can be done to improve the gameplay experience, but it's hard to know what to even expect at this point.
-
I don't think everyone here is blind to it. I too have wondered why they put in quests that some classes can likely never reliably complete as well. I think, simply put, people want it to be a give and a take. Without putting down hard numbers …
-
To put in the ability to grant credit is sort of embarrassing though, isn't it? It's like "hey, we can't get our PvE quest triggers to work reliably so here you go".
-
This entire thread seems sort of laughable to me. It sounds like people want to have their cake and eat it too. They already heal and CC - what other roles do they need to be able to fill? I don't think it's obscene that people want to con…

Most 'gaming' mouse and keyboard hardware comes with associated software nowadays that allows you to hit two buttons at once. You can essentially hit one button, have it do your side style and queue up any anytime afterwards so you can just spam it …

I've got plenty of time to dedicate to running this, just not on the days when people run them. Reducing this from BG to group based would allow me to potentially run a group during off-peak hours. It's hard as hell to get something like this …

It's a hard trade off for being awesome. Pets are more than DPS - they're interrupts. If you want to give them more DPS - there are other options.
-
With words. Like this.

This is sort of the issue I pointed at in my Returning Player Feedback thread. I've had minor success farming aurulite in one of the solo dungeons from the Curse campaign - the ones you can use the summoned pets in. Find one that gives you eas…

It's sort of hard to reverse the trends that Mythic/Broadsword allowed to happen which put the game into it's current state. I see many people clamoring for realm loyalty and the like but the truth seems to be that Broadsword/Mythic designed that ou…

Hop into the Discord server listed on the right. There is a guild section with lists of all currently active/recruiting guilds.

The whole high RR thing is stupid for the most part. - some high RRs are not good players. - some bought their account. - they aren't invincible and can still be taken down by good strategy/numbers. Now, if you've got a group of RR1-3s…

You people are all over the place. Where did Gaheris even come in? Highly doubt they'd remove all ML and CL abilities and reshuffle them at this point either. Neither of those things would really make much better for newer players. It'd si…

Being that DAoC is pretty binary when it comes to success or failure - meaning you get RPs for succeeding, not for trying, people are likely going to go for the sure ways to do something. When you run a BG/raid people are fickle and generally h…

Regarding doing raids - it's all based on your schedule and whoever runs the raids. On Hibernia literally every raid Solic runs is on a workday for me. Not his fault. Either somebody else runs it (rare) or I try and run it having only done it twice.…

I like CV mainly because I really enjoyed that Old Frontiers style layout. I don't like it's keep position at all, and think it's hot garbage, but the setup actually flows people into each other whereas NF allows for too many pathways.
-
Honestly these places ideally would not be gigantic hills filled with LoS breakers. It's too much. It isn't that casters can't fight here, moreso that the geometry is so stacked against you why would you ever want to?

@Silvers The amount of data most games use when played using your phone is incredibly negligable for the most part, unless you have literally no data with your plan and pay for any useage, which is rare nowadays. You'll eat up more data doing just a…

Penalties don't work as well as inectives IMO. It's also incredibly easy to just pick up your cell phone nowadays, turn on your wireless hotspot, and blamo - you've got another IP address to cross realm with.

I'm constantly eating AoE Mez poison from Stealthers even when it seems like I'm 850+ units away from whoever it is that got hit with the Mez poison. It's ridiculous, never mind it being ridiculous that somebody decided to give them an AoE Mez poiso…

The quests are sort of goofy, but I appreciate the idea behind. I spent some time zerg surfing today and got three of those daily quests done with ease. Actually doing them yourself in a solo/smallman is much harder by magnitudes. I like Aso's…

The templates there are honestly sort of all over the place. It's a good site, and I still use it, but there are a few oddities. I found a few templates that had different versions of items in them, I ended up not paying enough attention and craf…

Yeah, they seem to be far better off now than I remember. DAoC has quite a few moving parts. It's likely that many classes that perform well for seasoned players and 8v8s still confuddle quite a few others.
-
You did one on a Monday or Tuesday that I attended which was a big help. If you ever find the time or inclination, it helps folks like me with schedules that don't match up. Just a suggestion - thanks for doing these either way.

Lack of an animation to clue people in is really what always stuck out to me the most.

I actually enjoy zerging on the few days that I can. It gives me a chance to relax and play some undergeared characters and see some chaos. It's become pretty clear though that cross realm spying is inevitable, and yes, there does seem to be so…

@Ciddire I disagree entirely. Adding and hoping for more fodder/population boost on a seventeen years old game is folly. The design of it doesn't really work for people now, adding in a glut of F2P accounts is, at best, a temporary bandaid to a much…
