  • Question, week of May 29th.

    Each week, we're able to submit a question that the developers are trying to answer in a timely fashion. Kind of an alternative to the top 10, for now.

    For this week, what question would you like me to submit? I'll take the best one, and hope His Ogreness (no peeking) will supply us an answer, that I'll post on this thread.

    So, what question would you like me to ask this week??

    Well, the obvious one about when will silk classes finally get to access Bazu and Last blood gear like the other classes is rendered moot, as further discussion about coarse silk drop rates has been covered elsewhere, and the topic now off limits.

    So how about, when will pottery next get a little loving.

      What changes are upcoming to the BBC... what will the new stats be? will there be any adjustments to yields of final or subcombines? Will all challenge items be made No Drop or just Meat and Final?

      OR

      Is there any chance the subcombines for the DoN cultural gnome armor (particularly the bars of metal) have a tinkering combine added in addition to the smithing recipe to allow them to be made within tinkering as a whole and not require smithing the bars to tinker the armor?

        I still think that the Coarse Silk issue needs to be addressed again and again and again until it is fixed. My guild has decreed that no silk wearers will get Last Blood augs because of the rarity of the silks and virtually non-existent availibility of GM silk armor to be purchased for aug insertion.

          I think your guild should reconsider this policy since GM & Bazu/Last Blood augs can go into Masters armors as well. Robes have the highest stats, and dark elves can be all 4 silk classes, so I am going to use them as an example.

          The difference between the 2 robes is 14AC, 15HP/Mana, 6 total resists, and a few stats that are meaningless at the point in the game that you get Bazu augs. The 14AC is meaningless to a caster. It means they will have a 46AC robe instead of a 60AC robe (assuming Bazu). That leaves 15 HP/Mana and 6 resists as the only things a casters loses by wearing a masters robe instead of a GM robe. If they go with a different slot then chest teh differences will be even smaller. With Materials for Masters silk being much easier & cheaper to get materials for, your casters should just go with them.

          I rest my case.

            Quick and relatively easy question: Has Maddoc heard back from Swords and Sorcery Studios about changing the Phylactery quest? (To make it so anyone can start the quest, instead of just INT and WIS caster classes, and to make the Token of Service tradable.)

              Id like to ask if plains roots could be increased in drop / forage rate they are way to rare for someone not afk forageing,(which is why i gave up on that route even after buying many runes) and still to rare offa beetles who dont exactly flood the zone

              will we ever see mineing introduced ? to lighten the load from buying things like platinum threads or hq ore( would also need new recipies)

                Question Suggestion - Armour Sets

                Okay, here is a question that has been bugging me for a while:

                Tradeskilled armour sets always used to have 12 pieces: Chest, Back, Legs, Arms, Shoulders, Head, Feet, Hands, Wrists, Waist, Neck, Face.

                All the newer tradeskilled armour sets only have 7 pieces (the so-called "visible" slots): Chest, Legs, Arms, Head, Feet, Hands, Wrists

                So the question(s) are:

                1) Why has tradeskilled armour been reduced so much

                2) Can some of the "lost" pieces be added to the game, especially for the DoN cultural armours. (If there is a limitation based on the 10-slot-bag of molds/patterns, then we shoudl still be able to increase the number of peiecs from 7 to 10 and hence include 3 more armour slots.

                  Are there any plans for a tier of armor or augs higher than GM and Last Blood? Although these makes some of the best items out there atm, the new expansion and level increase will come with a buttload of new loot and I would like to see crafted armors keep pace with dropped pieces.

                    Is the cap on the number of recipies in your fav list on a per character basis or combines on all of your alts as well?There are many recipies that can't be added to my fav list cause i'm at the cap.And no amount of removeing recipies seems to free up space.I think this is because the cap for the total base list of recipies has also been reached and the newer recipies can't be added to the base list.

                      I'll second it, when will Pottery usefulness get some attention? There have been no good pottery recipes since PoP.

                        Thought of another one...

                        Why was Improved Block left off the list of effects available for DoD augs? Can we add IB in the near future?

                          With the announced increase in levels, is there any thought to how foci will scale upwards? Right now, for example, Last Blood augments, which are considered very high end, have some 70 and even some level 67 foci. In the Fall, if the level cap increases to 75 (or even 80 as has been mentioned), even with the 10% per level scaling, these are going to suddenly really stink.

                          Has any thought been given to trade skill augment improvement process, by which a combine could be made to upgrade your suddenly semi-obsolete last blood augment with a second item so upgrade the focus to go to level 75 or 80.

                            Unfortunately, for some races, even this isn't an option. HIE need Storm Volaa's hair, and frankly, thats almost as difficult to get hold of, or rare to find in the bazaar, as Coarse Silk,

                              I've actually seen GM Starglow forsale in the bazaar, but never any Master Starglow.
