Lotro Patch 1.12

LOTRO Beta Release Notes - 29th March, 2007

Of Special Note

* Error messages are now localized.
* The XP curve, has become less mountainous, but does have a longer run distance. However it has very little (if any) effect on the low levels. Never fear however, heavy quest support will be released (as quoted by Made of Lions) within a month to support the hardcore achievers who’ll be out ahead of the curve.
* Lutes for all! Due to the popularity of the music system in general, and the relative lack of popularity of the clarinet in particular, all classes can now use Lutes at level 5. In addition, Minstrels can get their additional instrument proficiencies at level 5 instead of 20.
* When inviting players into a fellowship in the same newbie experience, but different layers, we now teleport the invited player to the same layer as the leader of that fellowship. This means newbie players will now be able to meet up with their friends right away. However, please note the following exceptions:
o A player that has completed the newbie experience can no longer invite a player to fellow if the other player is still in the newbie experience.
o A player in the newbie experience can no longer invite a player to a fellowship if the invited player has already finished the newbie experience.
o Players can no longer invite players that are in different newbie experiences into their fellowships. (Archet cannot invite players in Ered Luin and vice versa.)
* Large cities throughout Middle-earth now have NPCs who will appear and tell you the current state of the battle in the Ettenmoors.
* Burglars can now track many chests in which quest items are found.
* Armour points have been redistributed and rebalanced, so expect a change in the armour value of all armour suits in the game.
* The repair cost of heavy armour has been addressed, and we addressed some repair cost inconsistencies with armour in general. The overall change here is that heavy armour should cost less to repair, light armour has seen a slight increase, and there is no change to medium armour.
* Mouse steering and looking can now be done even when the focus is in the chat entry window.
* For all dialogs, you can now press the enter key to perform the "Accept" response.
* We've added support for the Logitech G15's LCD panel. When you're in character generation and selection, you'll see the name of the game. Once you've logged in, we show your morale (numbers and progress bar) your mood (number) your power (numbers and progress bar) and the landscape area you’re in. Nifty!
* Rewrote the way all static content (buildings, trees, etc.) gets managed on the client. This should significantly improve client performance.
* Travel to and from the Ettenmoors is now available from East Bree, Michel Delving, and Thorin's Gate.
* Celondim is now part of the Postal system!
* Monsters are able to reach you when you're in water. You are no longer safe.
* A great number of changes have been applied to reduce the amount of money in the game.
* An ambient sense of Hope in the recently expanded-into portions of the Shire and Bree-land is now present, bringing these areas in line with other previously hopeful areas.
* Reflecting Pools now always allow you to join your fellowship in an instance.
* Friends lists are now shared across all of your characters per shard; monster players will have a separate friends list that is also shared across all of your monster players per shard. Your friends lists will be cleared for this change.
* Bree-town now has a bank!



Gameplay

* Lore-masters using staff and sword now properly attack with both weapons during auto-attack.
* Fixed a race condition that could lead to an NPC being stuck permanently dazed.
* Fixed an issue that caused monsters to become stuck and unable to attack if they aggro'd while idling during a patrol.
* Multiple active toggle skills which increase focus or fervour will not override each other.
* You now lose all focus or fervour when you're defeated.
* Monsters should stop being quite so easy at level 40 when you are a higher level than they are.
* Fixed a bug that was causing players to occasionally lose all accrued rest bonus experience.
* Fixed a bug that was causing some items to show as busy (hourglass icon) on the quickslot bar when the player was executing skills.
* The Fellowship manoeuvre assist button will no longer show up for monster players, or for players who have not yet earned their Fellowship skills.
* Fixed how auto-attack works with the "skill target forwarding" option enabled so the correct attack (melee or ranged) is used. This will be most noticeable for those trying to use ranged auto-attack with this feature.
* Tracking distance has been decreased to 360 meters.
* Tracking ends when your target is defeated.
* AIs will fail path-planning much less often.
* Monsters should enter anti-exploit mode less often.
* Monsters will no longer attempt to move to you if they cannot get to you.
* Pets are more loyal, and will be less likely to stop following you.
* Players can no longer attack Dirk's sheep in the Archet newbie area. That includes shouting at them, you mean Captains, you.
* Casting multiple auras works!
* Targeting numbers for AOE damage for the Minstrel has been adjusted, as well as the cooldown on his AOE damage skills.
* Attributes have been re-examined. In general, they should have more impact depending on class and choice. However, some skill buffs have also been adjusted to take these new changes into account.
* Rebalancing changes and cooldown channel modifications have been made to the Minstrel.
* We’ve made some new updates to regeneration times, and pet damage has been impacted by the regeneration rebalance.
* Attribute curves have been changed for all classes for rebalancing.

Skills
* Champion:
o Blade Storm now does twice as much damage, costs additional power and has a longer cooldown
o Blade Explosion now does additional damage, costs additional power, and has a longer cooldown.
o Dire Need now heals 2 points of health for every point of power consumed.
o Clobber can now be used as soon as the previous skill finished. It no longer waits for you to recover.
o When Fervour is toggled on, the Champion cannot block, parry, or evade, but receives a 15% bonus to damage and increased power regeneration.
o While dual-wielding, Savage Strikes only costs 2 fervour to activate and Brutal Strikes only requires 3 fervour to activate. While this change is small, it does provide a tempo boost to Champions that choose to dual-wield instead of using a 2-handed weapon.
o Brutal Strikes now does 5% more damage per attack, and uses the off-hand weapon for the final attack when dual-wielding.
o Sudden Defence can no longer be used while fervour is active.
o Merciful Strike can now be used when the target is at less than 20% health, and now does 100% of weapon damage instead of 150%.
o The Bleed associated with Cleave now only applies 50% of the time, but does over double the amount of damage it currently does per tick.
o Wild Attack, Savage Strikes, and Brutal Strikes have been adjusted to reduce the amount of time they prevent you from performing other actions.
o Sudden Defence and Hamstring no longer flash on and off out of combat, and cannot be used out of combat.
o Hamstring now slows targets by 30%.
o Updated the Cleave skill description to reflect the fact that it only applies its DOT half of the time.
o Champion - The Action Contribution Duration of his buff skills (Flurry, Exchange of Blows, Sprint, Battle-Frenzy) has been reduced. This reduces the global reset after their use, and keeps them from blocking other skill plays.
o “Sprint” is now a flat 35% speed increase instead of being on a progression.
* Guardian:
o Shield Taunt has had its reset time extended to 10 seconds.
o Thrill of Danger has had its reset time extended to 7 minutes by default and 5 minutes when improved.
o Stamp now animates more quickly and delivers its attack hook nearly instantly.
o Guardian's Promise now requires the Guardian to perform an induction when he is summoned.
o “Thrill of Danger” is no longer useable outside of combat.
* Hunter:
o “On the Move” has been renamed to “Press Onward,” has been given a new animation, and is not useable while moving.
o “Intent Concentration” and “Needful Haste” recovery were reduced to 3 minutes and can be further lowered with the “Swift Recovery” trait.
o “Quick Shot” while in Strength Stance movement debuff increased from 30% to 40%
o Endurance Stance no longer penalizes damage, but its power cost reduction is lowered to 10% (20% with trait)
* Minstrel:
* Captain:
o Captain Trainers now offer the Rank 2 Evade Passive Skill at level 21, as opposed to the Rank 1 Evade Passive Skill (which was already being offered at level 13)
o There is no longer a cooldown for summoning a Herald.
o The cooldown for all of the Captain's Mark skills has been reduced to 10 seconds.
o The skill descriptions for Command: Focus, Last Stand, and all of the Captain’s Marks have been updated to be 105% more accurate and 27% less misleading.
o The descriptions for all of the Captain Herald’s skills now mention their cooldown timers.
o The Herald skill Coordinated Attack now has a chance of stunning the target, as opposed to being a guaranteed stun, and is now on a 60 second cooldown. It also does slightly more damage.
o The cooldown on the Herald skill Infuriating Tactics has been reduced to 15 seconds.
o Words of Courage no longer has a cooldown, has a 3 second induction, and costs slightly more power to use.
o The Herald skill Lend Will now has a 90 second cooldown.
o All of the Captain's Mark skills now enable the Herald's skills Coordinated Attack and Infuriating Tactics.
o "Herald's Mark" has been renamed to "Noble Mark" and now applies a small light damage DoT to the target.
o Known Issues: **Captains please read**
+ Captains were being given a Block Passive Characteristic before they could use shields. Yeah, we thought that was weird too. We have since reordered when Captains will receive their Block and Parry Passives. Unfortunately this change may require you to visit your Trainer to repurchase these Characteristics.
+ Pressing Attack and Noble Mark are now bestowed at levels 10 and 12, respectively. This change may require you to revisit your Trainer to retrain these skills.
* General:
o Fixed a bug preventing the out-of-range indicator from showing up on some Skill quickslots when it should, e.g. the Warleader "Field Promotion" skill.
o “Runic Use” passive skill has a new icon.

* The Krahjarn guards protecting the respawn points in the Ettenmoors took a few too many blows to the head and thought that they were members of the Ongbúrz Tribe. After a severe beating from the War Tyrant, the Iron-defenders once again understand their true allegiance. Right, Uruks? They're cowering. I swear it.
* Snowreap trolls now support the Goblins of Grothum from the valley below the Isendeep Mine in the Ettenmoors.
* Trophy drop rates on items needed for quests in the Ettenmoors have been adjusted to drop more frequently.

Music System

* Ignoring a player once again prevents you from hearing his/her music.
Items

* Previously in the Orc camp behind Weathertop, War Master Uzzor kept papers on his desk and an oddly shaped sack that looked out of place. Strangely, this odd sack was supposed to be a group of parchment containing hidden orders. We suppose making them look like an odd sack is one way of hiding them, but still, we made it look right now.

* Values on Champion Runes, Captain Armaments, Lore-master Books, and Burglar tools have been reduced in value.

o Minstrel musical instruments have seen a reduction in worth, and can no longer be sold for large sums of money.
o The intrinsic critical hit bonus on daggers has been updated to only work during auto-attacks, similar to bows. These bonuses do stack, so wielding two daggers will give a higher critical hit chance while auto-attacking. Because of this change, dagger DPS has been increased.
* Armour/Wearables
o Repair cost for most shields have been reduced.
o Fixed some instances where Damage Reflection on jewellery wasn't operating at the correct level of the item.
o The majority of rare jewellery found in loot has seen a second enhancement (if it was already lacking a second enhancement).

Best walloftext ever.:sneer:

/discuss
(sulla patch, non sul walloftext)

[Devon]

riassumi poi discuss senno suchi

[CrescentMoon]

riassumi poi discuss senno suchi
eeeeeh troppo lungo per riassumere...i cambiamenti son stati tanti...uno dei piu' interessanti riguarda l'exp:
"The XP curve, has become less mountainous, but does have a longer run distance. However it has very little (if any) effect on the low levels. Never fear however, heavy quest support will be released (as quoted by Made of Lions) within a month to support the hardcore achievers who’ll be out ahead of the curve."

assieme a quelli delle classi:
Skills

* Champion:
o Blade Storm now does twice as much damage, costs additional power and has a longer cooldown
o Blade Explosion now does additional damage, costs additional power, and has a longer cooldown.
o Dire Need now heals 2 points of health for every point of power consumed.
o Clobber can now be used as soon as the previous skill finished. It no longer waits for you to recover.
o When Fervour is toggled on, the Champion cannot block, parry, or evade, but receives a 15% bonus to damage and increased power regeneration.
o While dual-wielding, Savage Strikes only costs 2 fervour to activate and Brutal Strikes only requires 3 fervour to activate. While this change is small, it does provide a tempo boost to Champions that choose to dual-wield instead of using a 2-handed weapon.
o Brutal Strikes now does 5% more damage per attack, and uses the off-hand weapon for the final attack when dual-wielding.
o Sudden Defence can no longer be used while fervour is active.
o Merciful Strike can now be used when the target is at less than 20% health, and now does 100% of weapon damage instead of 150%.
o The Bleed associated with Cleave now only applies 50% of the time, but does over double the amount of damage it currently does per tick.
o Wild Attack, Savage Strikes, and Brutal Strikes have been adjusted to reduce the amount of time they prevent you from performing other actions.
o Sudden Defence and Hamstring no longer flash on and off out of combat, and cannot be used out of combat.
o Hamstring now slows targets by 30%.
o Updated the Cleave skill description to reflect the fact that it only applies its DOT half of the time.
o Champion - The Action Contribution Duration of his buff skills (Flurry, Exchange of Blows, Sprint, Battle-Frenzy) has been reduced. This reduces the global reset after their use, and keeps them from blocking other skill plays.
o “Sprint” is now a flat 35% speed increase instead of being on a progression.
* Guardian:
o Shield Taunt has had its reset time extended to 10 seconds.
o Thrill of Danger has had its reset time extended to 7 minutes by default and 5 minutes when improved.
o Stamp now animates more quickly and delivers its attack hook nearly instantly.
o Guardian's Promise now requires the Guardian to perform an induction when he is summoned.
o “Thrill of Danger” is no longer useable outside of combat.
* Hunter:
o “On the Move” has been renamed to “Press Onward,” has been given a new animation, and is not useable while moving.
o “Intent Concentration” and “Needful Haste” recovery were reduced to 3 minutes and can be further lowered with the “Swift Recovery” trait.
o “Quick Shot” while in Strength Stance movement debuff increased from 30% to 40%
o Endurance Stance no longer penalizes damage, but its power cost reduction is lowered to 10% (20% with trait)
* Minstrel:
* Captain:
o Captain Trainers now offer the Rank 2 Evade Passive Skill at level 21, as opposed to the Rank 1 Evade Passive Skill (which was already being offered at level 13)
o There is no longer a cooldown for summoning a Herald.
o The cooldown for all of the Captain's Mark skills has been reduced to 10 seconds.
o The skill descriptions for Command: Focus, Last Stand, and all of the Captain’s Marks have been updated to be 105% more accurate and 27% less misleading.
o The descriptions for all of the Captain Herald’s skills now mention their cooldown timers.
o The Herald skill Coordinated Attack now has a chance of stunning the target, as opposed to being a guaranteed stun, and is now on a 60 second cooldown. It also does slightly more damage.
o The cooldown on the Herald skill Infuriating Tactics has been reduced to 15 seconds.
o Words of Courage no longer has a cooldown, has a 3 second induction, and costs slightly more power to use.
o The Herald skill Lend Will now has a 90 second cooldown.
o All of the Captain's Mark skills now enable the Herald's skills Coordinated Attack and Infuriating Tactics.
o "Herald's Mark" has been renamed to "Noble Mark" and now applies a small light damage DoT to the target.
o Known Issues: **Captains please read**
+ Captains were being given a Block Passive Characteristic before they could use shields. Yeah, we thought that was weird too. We have since reordered when Captains will receive their Block and Parry Passives. Unfortunately this change may require you to visit your Trainer to repurchase these Characteristics.
+ Pressing Attack and Noble Mark are now bestowed at levels 10 and 12, respectively. This change may require you to revisit your Trainer to retrain these skills.

Io st'euro di tassa su paypal non lo pago e i 3€ in più per gli europei non inglesi mi sembrano strani. Ma se in totale mi fan pagare più di 13€ non ci gioco.

hai dimenticato di insultare drako


p.s. se devo paga 17€\mese non ci gioco nemmeno io me sa

[CrescentMoon]

Ho contattato un'amica che gioca a ddo e mi ha detto che effettivamente li nn prendono le cc, ma devi pagare con paypal. Mi ha pure detto che c'e' effettivamente una tassa per i non inglesi.
Mo mi informo meglio



ps Drako terrone

[CrescentMoon]

Allora, sembra ci sia la sovrattassa per i non inglesi, ma non la tassa per pagare con paypal.
Qualcuno che la usa conferma?

[Jarkheld]

da quello che so io paypal tassa chi riceve il pagamento non chi lo effettua

[CrescentMoon]

da quello che so io paypal tassa chi riceve il pagamento non chi lo effettua
Mi sono informato meglio.
DDO Ha un costo mensile in euro di 12,99 , ma chi ci gioca mi ha confermato che spende 15,26 euro. Questo e' dovuto non alla sovrattassa di paypal, ma ad una serie di tasse che si devono pagare per effettuare un pagamento in Inghilterra. Penso sia dovuto semplicemente al fatto che la GB ha ancora le sterline.

[Drako]

e quindi quanto verrebbe l'abbonamento di lotro?

[Galandil]

Downloading, finalmente pare che abbiano fixato l'AH (che era ingestibile), e la gestione degli oggetti fissi delle mappe (costruzioni, alberi, ecc.), sperando che migliori un po' il terribile swap di ora.
E anche il pet del Loremaster ora non dovrebbe piantarsi ogni 3x2 sedendosi a terra e restando lì fermo a brucare l'erba.

Per il pagamento, mi sembra strano, visto che quando si carica dice chiaramente il prezzo mensile del gioco ANCHE in € direttamente (€7,99).

E finalmente pure le Reflecting Pools funzionano.

[Drako]

8€? quindiquasi 11€ con tasse...fosse così sarebbe più che accettabile.

[Galandil]

8€? quindiquasi 11€ con tasse...fosse così sarebbe più che accettabile.

Ma di che tasse parli? :look:

Se mettono il prezzo in sterline e euro, dovrebbero far pagare agli utenti in zona EU esattamente quel prezzo, il cambio è già incluso (ovviamente sempre a loro favore rispetto allo spread medio di periodo).

[Drako]

siccome qua si parla di tasse e blablabla....se è 8€ per tutti è un lusso. Imho a sto punto vale proprio la pena.

[CrescentMoon]

no.
Da quello che ho capito girovagando per vari forum e chiedendo, siccome la sede della codemaster e' in Inghilterra paghiamo una tassazione di 3,27 euro ogni volta che paghiamo l'abbonamento.
E l'abbonamento di lotro costa 12 euro, come la maggior parte dei giochi, ma se compri il preorder(quello che ti fa entrare il 14/4) hai accesso ad un'offerta che ti fa pagare per 6 mesi per 48 euro(8 euro al mese). A questi ci aggiungi i consueti 3,27 euro.

[Galandil]

no.

Io stavo cercando proprio ora, e sul sito italiano di CodeM c'è questo prodotto:

http://it.codemasters.com/eshop/more-details.php?digitalitemid=47

In pratica è il famoso pre-order (qui prezzo €7,99 pagando con qualsiasi CC e senza tasse aggiuntive), che permette di avere il 10gg head start sulla retail e l'accesso alla Founder Option, cioé o i 6 mesi a €48 o un lifetime ticket a €149.

E visto che sul preorder i €3,27 non ci sono... mi pare un po' nebulosa questa cosa, magari si può chiedere direttamente a qualcuno in Codemasters.

[Ercos]

si ma che merda sta roba della tassa, ma se dicono che costa 12 euro deve costare 12 euro, cazzo vuol dire che devo aggiungerci 3 euro :gha:

[Drako]

ma quindi crescent...se io mi faccio l'abbonamento mensile pago 15€?
A sto punto se faccio quello per 6 mesi, pago una tassa superiore a 3,27€. Cerca di scoprire bene come stanno le cose, che fino al 14 posso annullare l'ordine tranquillamente.

i furboni nn scrivono che devi pagare eventuali tasse aggiuntive li, ma te lo scrivono quando accetti il contratto la prima volta che logghi:
If your use of our Services is subject to use or sales tax, then Codemasters may also charge you for any such taxes, in addition to the subscription or other applicable fees. Unless otherwise indicated, all prices are in local currency and do not include Internet service provider, telephone, and other connection charges. Some subscriptions renew monthly on the same date that it was purchased. If you do not want your subscription or membership to renew, you must unsubscribe before it expires.
Questo perche' e' lo stato italiano che ci fa pagare questa tassa, non la codemaster. Paradossalmente uno che sta a S.Marino o in Vaticano nn la paga.
Quindi si, e' conveniente fare l'abbonamento da 6 mesi a sto punto(lo sarebbe cmq, ora ancora di piu').


[edit] il preorder prendilo da play.com...preorder+gioco 39 euro. Il 13 aprile a mezzanotte ti arriva nella casella mail la cd key per entrare dal 14 e ti arriva poi la scatola entro il 24.

[Drako]

si ma io non ho nè i soldi nè la voglia/intenzione di pagare 6 mesi. Quindi vorrei scoprire mensilmente a quanto ammontano i costi in modo da poter eventualmente annullare tutto in tempo utile.

[CrescentMoon]

15,26
Posso garantirti che questo e' il prezzo per ddo, considerando che il pagamento lo fai sul sito della CodeM, come lotro, che il costo base dell'abbonamento e' 12,99, come lotro sono sicuro direi al 99%.

[Drako]

benone...se lo possono tenere...e per i 6 mesi è 48 reale o no?

[CrescentMoon]

benone...se lo possono tenere...e per i 6 mesi è 48 reale o no?
per i 6 mesi e' circa 51 euro.
Pero' a sto punto sarebbe il caso di fare un conto su chi rimane sul serio, perche' se devo iniziare a giocarci e trovarmi con solo Eca costretti ad andare nella gilda di Mmorpgitalia nn lo compro nemmeno.

[Galandil]

Riguardo al gioco preso da play.com, penso che lì ti diano il pre-order (per giocare i 10 giorni prima della release) e poi il gioco che non so però se contiene solo un mese di ticket.

Mi spiego, la Founder option penso sia utilizzabile solo via CodeM, quindi alla fine non so se da play.com convenga alla fine della fiera.

Riguardo la patch di oggi: hanno inserito un'opzione per aumentare o diminuire la quantità di ram di sistema da assegnare alla cache grafica, peccato che lo slide sia del tipo 0.0-1.0, senza capire esattamente a quale ammontare di ram totale si riferisca, io per ora l'ho sparato al max, 1, e swappa di brutto quando si entra in zone nuove, poi swappa di meno, ma il problema cmq, purtroppo persiste.

Hanno stravolto parecchio tutte le classi, diminuito le armor in generale, potenziato i bonus delle stats, levato 3 traits di virtues, ora sono max 5, risistemato molti NPC di Bree in particolare, e, genialata delle genialate, hanno levato il Bardo da Bree per modifica i Traits, una furbata pazzesca. :rotfl:

Entro domani ci dò un'occhiata più approfondita alla patch, ah, hanno sistemato anche l'AH, ora il filtro per Name funzia, manca solo il funzionamento del parametro Eligible, è ancora adesso un ditarculo cercare una recipe, ad esempio, in un elenco di recipe di altri professioni di cui non me ne sbatte nulla. :bored:

[Drako]

mah, devo dire che ci sto ripensando...

@crescent: sicuro che siano 3€ di tasse su 48€? mi sembra un po' strano se su 12 sono 3...

[CrescentMoon]

mah, devo dire che ci sto ripensando...

@crescent: sicuro che siano 3€ di tasse su 48€? mi sembra un po' strano se su 12 sono 3...
e' una tassa, che si applica indifferentemente da quanto spendi...credo....in ogni caso, vorrei avere conferma da chi ci sara' al 100%, perche' in alternativa disdico l'abbonamento.

[dangaio]

da quanto ho capito, la tassa particolare a cui fate riferimento è la VAT. (o un suo surrogato)
Non dipende dalla cifra, ma si applica sul singolo pagamento.

se effettuate 5 pagamenti di 13 euro, sborserete 13 euro + 3 per 5 volte.
se effettuate 1 solo pagamento di 48 euro, sborserete solo 48+3 euro per 1 sola volta.

[CrescentMoon]

uppo, vorrei avere conferma da chi aveva detto che ci sarebbe stato in release

[Drako]

ci sto pensando...

la risposta di drako condiziona la mia, sinceramente 3-5-10€ non mi cambiano niente, pero sta cosa l'ho iniziata per giocare co lui, quindi..

Oh, guardate che vi basta essere in 6, e avere le classi giuste per poter giocare senza troppe seghe.

Mene + Lore + Ranger + Guardian + Champion + a scelta fra Burglar/Captain (per il gioco di gruppo ovviamente Nmila volte meglio il Captain), e idem vi fate praticamente tutte le professioni possibili (ne resta fuori 1 delle 7, ma con le prof. giuste usate tutte le linee di craft). ;)

Cmq stavo notando che dal lvl 15 in su, le quest di collection smettono di droppare ad ogni mob e per tutti i team del gruppo, purtroppo, e alcune diventano un ditarculo™ in stile WoW, purtroppo. Ma sicuramente NESSUNA è al livello di frustrazione di WoW. :D

[Drako]

ammettiamo confermassimo tutti...quanti saremmo? 4?5?6?

[Jarkheld]

ammettiamo confermassimo tutti...quanti saremmo? 4?5?6?

io, te , crescent, shagaz, poi?

[CrescentMoon]

eca che e' un'amica che gioca a wow, ma non sono sicuro della sua presenza fissa.


ps galamerda:fuck: vai su tech che ho un casino col pc

[Drako]

anche non ci fosse il problema tassa saremmo 4,5....

[Ipnotik]

nn sapevo nemmeno esistesse, quanto costa giocarci?

[Devon]

beh a me è rivata la scatola co la cdkey per l'accesso di 10 giorni anticipato, con un codice per un esclusivo oggetto in-game (lol) delle figurine e il cd del gioco :o

quando dovrei inserire la cdkey?
ce ne so 2, una dice che mi da la possibilita di pagare 8.99€\mese se faccio quella da 6 mesi, non parla di tasse ne di uk..

[CrescentMoon]

xche' nn sono considerate dalla codemaster, in quanto le tasse vengono aggiunte nn da loro.
Btw, da chi l'hai ordinato? a me lo da ancora in preorder(e tra parentesi manco son riuscito a disdirlo-.-)

[Devon]

da multyplayer
btw allora che cazzo si fa?

[CrescentMoon]

preso dallo scazzo ieri sera (pensavo) di aver disdetto, ma controllando oggi me lo da ancora in preorder. Quindi a sto punto io ci sono almeno per il mese di abbonamento, poi vale il solito discorso che se vedo che nn si combina un cazzo decidero' di mollare.

[Drako]

ma quindi il rinnovo a 51€ si può decidere di farlo dopo il mese...quindi fino al 24 maggio o sbaglio? Un po' mi scazza spenderci i 40€ a vuoto, ma a sto punto proviamoci...solo che siamo 4 sicuri e non possiamo permetterci classi doppione...

[Devon]

come detto, se ci gioca qualcuno io ci sono, senno da solo un ce gioco :sneer:
tanto prima psqua arrva l pc nuovo e ge ge

[CrescentMoon]

io ci sono, c'e' pure un amico che fa l'huntaH, ci serve il mene pero'...jharkeld c'e' fisso o a scazzo?

[Drako]

come detto, se ci gioca qualcuno io ci sono, senno da solo un ce gioco :sneer:
tanto prima psqua arrva l pc nuovo e ge ge
Te devi cambiare classe prima di tutto :nod:

p.s.:ma l'amica tua crescent?

[Devon]

io fo mene ! uamanah

[Drako]

io fo mene ! uamanah
up :nod:

[CrescentMoon]

la mia amica ha detto che viene, ma per ora nn sa se ci sara' con continuita', quindi nn possiamo considerarla del gruppo fisso per expare...in ogni caso si fara' una menestrella
io come gia detto a Drako su msn sono orientato vs captain o burglar. Se nessun'altro fa captain lo faccio io perche' imho in un gruppo e' fondamentale, troppo utili i buff che ha. Se invece c'e' volentieri faccio il burglar che ha ottimi debuff, a livelli alti mena come un martello e in piu' e' la classe che attiva le conjunction.

[Galandil]

in piu' e' la classe che attiva le conjunction.

Questa ndo l'hai letta? :shocked:

Le Conjuction si attivano a prescindere dalle classi. ;)

[Tele]

No ha ragione, il Buglar assieme a qualche abilità di classe del Guardian attiva le conjunction.

C'ho loggato 20 minuti ieri sera dopo aver patchato... east angmar ancora chiuso, end game insondabile e la palpebra è calata inesorabile :sleep:

quanto mena il burglar? cioè più o meno di un champ...sennò a quel punto..anche se è meglio costringere shagaz a fare il mene.

[Galandil]

No ha ragione, il Buglar assieme a qualche abilità di classe del Guardian attiva le conjunction.

Spe, glielo spieghi tu al gioco che contro gli elite ci attiva le conjunction in 2, mene + loremaster? :D

O che l'ultima volta a Great Barrow in mene+lore+2 champ+2 ranger idem una marea di conjuction? :point:

[Jarkheld]

lo faccio io il mene...:gha:

[Traumar]

Ma se si volesse provare 'sto gioco in questi giorni che si dovrebbe fare?
A che punto della beta siam arrivati? Qualcuno ha account che non usa?

Ho il client scaricato sull'hard disk che sta mettendo radici ormai :/

[Drako]

lo faccio io il mene...:gha:
ah...shagaz devi da fa un'altra classe :sneer:

[Devon]

e sticassi
m'ero gia eccitato a fare la meneftrella

[Tele]

Non ho detto che SOLO i buglar attivano le conjunction, ho detto che i buglar possono ATTIVAMENTE farle partire, se il mob non resiste allo spell
anche il guardian prende un tratto che le fa partire, mi sembra

Poi ci sono le conjunction normali che si attivano random mentre si menano elites in gruppo

[CrescentMoon]

Questa ndo l'hai letta? :shocked:
Le Conjuction si attivano a prescindere dalle classi. ;)
si e no.
Le conjunction si attivano si a prescindere dalle classi, ma da qualche parte ho letto che questo avviene solo con alcuni boss, mentre il burglar ha abilita' attiva(mi sembra siano 2 con cd ognuna di 5 m) che oltre a fare vari effetti attivano le conjunction.
Capirai pure tu che avere la possibilita' di attivarle quando cazzo ti pare nn e' roba da poco.

[Devon]

a sto punto io fo o mene o burglar :nod:
decidete voi

e sopratutto ditemi come cazzo devo fare per avere i 10giorni anticipati, dove e quando mettere quella key :nod:

[CrescentMoon]

io l'ho prenotata da play.com
chi l'ha prenotata da multiplayer gia ha ricevuto il tutto pagando una 20ina di euro in piu'.
Da play.com invece ti arrivera' via posta la cdkey qualche gg prima che inizi e poi entro il 24 la scatola.

[Drako]

a sto punto diciamo orientativamente:
Shagaz - Burglar
Jarkheld - Mene
Drako - Guardian
CrescentMoon - Captain

Così sarebbe discreto o sbaglio?

boh niubbo per niubbo secondo me cosi' andiamo da dio

[Drako]

ma oltre a noi 4 ci sarebbero il tuo amico con hunter e la tua amica con...altro mene però saltuario?

[CrescentMoon]

ma oltre a noi 4 ci sarebbero il tuo amico con hunter e la tua amica con...altro mene però saltuario?
esatto
mentre il mio amico con l'hunter dovrebbe loggare fisso

[Devon]

20 euro in piu? di che? ho pagato sto pacchettino 4€ :sneer: il gioco lo pijero al mediaworld, intanto c'ho gia il tutto pronto pe i 10giorni anticipati :nod:

[Jarkheld]

io pensi di raggiungervi all'apertura ufficiale...nn ho preordinato :nod:

[Galandil]

Vi manca il Loremaster che sembra na mezza cagata... sembra, ma in realtà è uno sgravo pure lui.

Cmq mo chiedo a n'amico Burglar di ste 2 skills meglio. :D

[Drako]

si ma infatti il lore è sgravatino pure lui, già ai primi liv ha quel tag ciuccia power che è devastante... (è lui vero? non ci gioco da un po' :sneer:)
però personalmente sono un giocatore a cui piace menar le mani, alla lunga mi stanco di non avere melee...anche se, con la sicurezza di un pet non strabuggato, sarebbe carino.

Purtroppo dev'essere la sezione del pathing del pet ad essere un incubo, nei dungeon impazzisci letteralmete, all'aperto meno.

Cmq il Lore è la classe jolly del gioco, cura, aggra, debuffa, utilities varie (passa mana agli altri e poi lo ciuccia ai mob in channeling, ha pure una skill stile IP di daoc, usabile ogni 10 minuti), in un gruppo è un must secondo me.

La cosa incomprensibile è che, se vai dai trainer, dal 28 in poi riceve solo 4 skills attive, di contro il mene ad es. ne riceve 12 fino al 42. Mboh, pare che se ne siano "dimenticati" da un certo punto in poi. :shrug:

[Galandil]

Piccolo aggiornamento sul crafting: è stato davvero concepito in modo del tutto cannato.

Farming: tipi di ricette - Pipe Weed e ingredienti per ricette di Cooking. Posto che cooking lo si tira su prendendo gli ingredienti che si trovano in giro per il gioco, oppure acquistandoli da un vendor di cooking, oltre a questo non serve a nulla, l'erbapipa che si può "craftare" non serve a nulla di nulla. Professione inutile.

Scholar: crafting utile, crea delle scroll per aumentare le probabilità di fare oggetti critici su metalsmith/tailoring/woodworking/armorsmithing (però con l'ultima patch hanno nerfato i valori di bonus, tipo il tier 2 dal 6% è sceso al 2,5%), crea le pozioni morale/power, le tinture (vabbé) e qualche item specifico per alcune classi (tipo il fire-oil per gli hunter). Mediamente utile, se non fosse che tutte le recipe richiedono sempre un botto di drops e ben poca roba si può comprare (in sostanza, ogni recipe richiede almeno UN ingrediente droppato).

Tailoring: qui siamo al limite della follia. Necessità di droppare una marea di pelli (in base al tier, si devono usare light/medium/sturdy/pristine hides), per poi craftare ricette mediamente inutili, ad esempio le light armor sono concepite da un idiota, visto che dal lvl 15 l'unico ad indossare light è il loremaster, e molte danno boost a might/agility, senza avere traccia di will/fate. Le medium un po' meglio, ma sembra un crafting primariamente utile agli Hunters, meno al Mene, praticamente nulla al Loremaster.
L'assurdità, oltre alla quantità, è il livello dei mob da farmare per le pelli: tier 4, min lvl 31 per i pezzi di armor, richiede le pristine hide, e il mob di lvl più basso che le droppa è un lvl 35. Idem per le altre. Insomma, una volta che riesci a farmare quel tipo di pelle, la roba del tier corrispondente è già inutile.

Metalsmith: non l'ho vista in prima persona, ma da un amico tedesco ho avuto la conferma che è un incubo peggio di tailoring. Quantità di metalli/pelli/altri items (tipo le gemme polished di vario tipo) richieste mostruose, e anche qui si crafta roba mediamente inutile quando si riesce a farla.

Jewelry: forse l'unico crafting davvero utile, quando si arriva a craftare la roba critica di un tier ha una sua utilità, peccato che non s'è mai visto un gioielliere che sa fare collane/anelli, ma non orecchini/bracciali. Il jeweller crea anche delle rune speciali per alcune classi e i token che danno un bonus momentaneo alla Hope.

Nota particolare, le Single-Use recipe: non era un bug, ci sono delle ricette particolari che, una volta fatto l'item, spariscono. Queste ricette richiedono, oltre ad alcuni ingredienti di base, un drop particolare di mob named, e la cosa assurda è che fanno pena rispetto ai critici dello stesso tier di altre recipe più facili da reperire e senza ingredienti speciali richiesti (a parte quelli per aumentare la % di fare critico, ma sono mediamente semplici da droppare quelli).

Ah, dimenticavo Cooking: facile da tirare su, solito utilizzo normale con boost a regen fuori combat e un regen ogni 30 sec di power/morale/entrambi per 5 minuti.

Però, almeno in beta, c'è da dire che se si crafta rapidamente, si vende la roba all'AH in modo semplice, tirando su un botto di quattrini.
Ad esempio, attualmente una collana d'oro critica del Tier 3 (+17 Might +8 Vitality), si vende nell'arco di 2 ore a 750 argenti.

Però, se sperate di poter utilizzare attivamente il crafting per il vostro pg, a parte Jewelry scordatevelo. Chiaramente non so al lvl 50 come sarà, ma se prosegue nello stesso modo finirà come in WoW dei primi tempi, e cioé crafting inutile a parte un paio di professioni. :)

[Devon]

WoW, e cioé crafting inutile a parte un paio di professioni. :)


:rotfl:

[Galandil]

:rotfl:

A parte postare i tuoi soliti +1 da subumano quale sei, se hai da apportare qualcosa alla discussione fallo, altrimenti taci. :)

[Devon]

beh dire che 2 professioni sole sono utili in wow mi pare na cazzata, posso ride sulel cazzate no?

[Galandil]

beh dire che 2 professioni sole sono utili in wow mi pare na cazzata, posso ride sulel cazzate no?

I post a random vanno bene una volta, 2, tu passi ogni limite e la conseguenza è la chiusura (giusta) dei thread.

Io ho smesso su WoW secoli fa, ma all'epoca dire che ci fossero dei craft utili mentre si expava oltre Alchimia è una bestialità (Leatherworking? L'hai mai provato? Era una follia nonché inutilissimo).

Per il resto, frega nulla di WoW, ho fatto un piccolo report basato su tutto quello che ho potuto vedere, fino al Tier 4 dei craft (ce ne sono 5).

Chi vuole leggere e parlarne, ben venga, chi deve al solito fare i post inutili può anche smettere di postare.

[Devon]

e ho capito, ma io non smesso eoni fa di giocare a wow, e ti assicuro chenon è cosi, ma di sicuro tu puoi parlare di qualcosa che non conosci, o hai provato per poco giusto all'inizio :nod:

[Galandil]

Ok, editato per amor di correttezza. Ora spero che tu la finisca, grazie, non mi va di vedere anche questo thread chiuso. :)

[Devon]

ok se preferisci omettere qualcosa per rafforzare i tuoi punti di vista, liberissimo di farlo, ma aspettati che ci sara sempre qualcuno a puntualizzarlo ;)

cerchiamo cmq di avere toni da forum, nn c'è niente di personale e gia che ache sta andnado fuori di testa (con ragione, siamo tutti idioti cazzo, sopratutto io a insistere per veder randolk rosikare :gha:)

chiedo scusae replichero solamente con tono garbato e sopratutto con risposte inerenti alla discussione, ma continuero a sostenere i miei punti di vista, dove credo siano giusti :=)

ora devo uscire, buon proseguimento

[CrescentMoon]
