Patch Message 9-13-05

[Fesser]

I'm ok with the lore don't combine problem, I do it all the time on accident tinkering collapsible containers. In the end it won't do too much to mess up those tradeskill paths, let's be honest the carpal tunnel has gotten WAY better with the new GUI so a few more clicks won't kill anyone.

I'm just excited about the new spell combines, perhaps the cost of lvl 65 spells will come down to a more reasonable level.

One issue though, are any of the grandmaster's items lore? That would suck if you can't make something to sell after you make one for yourself. Is there something I'm missing?

[mewkus]

Is there a possibility of making EVB non lore? I can't really see how that would break anything. Is there some danger in having someone start to horde up all the EVB?

[Amaruk]

considering EVB are only used in one quest and have no other use they are worthless for the most part. Having they be destroyed helped us out with not having to destory them ourselves

[Telorea]

Have you actually tried it?

this should work. if one the the results (the ring) is the SAME as one of the components (the ring) then it is supposed to let it pass. When I was on beta helping him test this, I did not test that in particular, but I did test some of the other times when this was true and it let it pass.

If it is actually causing problems, can you give us more info that I can give to Tanker for testing... I.E. what is the container, what is the battery?

The Combine is Vermilion Sky Ring + Mana Battery Class 5 in Box of the Void Container. I was playing on Beta Server whilst waiting for Live Servers to come up and used up my last charge - tried to rechange the ring and got the error message.


EDIT: This combine has now been fixed and works properly again - thanks.

Imagine how sad you would be if you did a combine on a Grandmaster level Breastplate or Augment and discovered that you just lost it due to it being lore and you already had one.

-- Maddoc

Does this mean that we can expect to see Grandmaster breastplates and augments become LORE?? That would be a HUGE nerf, especially for those folks that actually wear the armour they make themselves.

potential_customer_00: Excuse me, can you make GM human armour?
Deandra: Yes, but since I wear most parts, I can only make the plate helmet atm, but I can make chain for you. If you need a plate bp/legs/bracer/boots, please find a GM human chain-wearing smith.

NOT a pleasant thought!

- Modified the stats on numerous pieces of the Cultural Tradeskill armor.

Is this just a rerun of old news, or did more stats get changed?

[Galuvwen]

was not able to do the key combine in ikkinz 2 raid last night due to the lore result message...

Rerun I believe they were changed in the 9/7 patch. This is jsut a rerun message

[Ngreth Thergn]

was not able to do the key combine in ikkinz 2 raid last night due to the lore result message...

What is the combine please?

[Galuvwen]

the combine was suppose to be:

Runed Glyph: Niliktek
Runed Glyph: Aktek
Runed Glyph: Fexika

combined in
Faded-Glyph Tablet

the message i received was
That combine would result in a LORE item (Faded-Glyph Tablet) you already possess.

Couldn't this be a warning instead of a prohibition?

WARNING: The item you are attempting to make is lore and will poof if you succeed.

And then you could add a command that lets you turn off all 2nd through nth warnings, so that folks can keep it on for the oopsies and yet still do weird combines like the Ikk2 one mentioned or make EVBs for skill ups.

I personally think we have enough flags and things to flip on and off. In any case I can't imagine that they'd change it back now and don't really want them to. Let's just hope that the list of non-quest, no-drop/attunable items which are player made, and lore are zero.

[andyhre]

Just FYI: Rangers are reporting that this helpful change has made both the Epic 1.5 and the Epic 2.0 combines fail.

Didn't know if you wanted this in a new thread or not, but a tiny patch message came across just now, and it has a couple tradeskill related fixes in it

Maybe this will fix that key problem and the epic problems
