  • They need to figure out a way to get EC players in NF without gimping them. Gimping RR with the cap is OK, a lot of the other restrictions are not. I've been playing as f2p and off the top of my head these are the most disheartening restrictions …
  • @Sleepwell I essentially remained a tried and true soloer until I stop playing about a year ago. I was always at solo areas on my toons, and I essentially hated every minute of it (waiting for /bow and people refusing to fight you... don't even get …

  • 4-5 years ago stealthers were perfect. They were a highly difficult class to play, but could be extremely powerful if played correctly, and that was what kept them in check. Then the stealth patch came, and sins were made so easy that, like @Shoke s…
  • As far as loyalty cloak leveling goes, it used to take me 2-3 hours clearing a dungeon to level it... What is the average time now?

  • It is pretty ridiculous though that yellow NPC buffs have a timer now. I'm sorry but @Broadsword was there even a logical reason for making them on a timer? I could understand if people were somehow taking some odd advantage of it, but for all I kno…

  • I think it would be agreat idea to have f2p players be able to /rp/xp off in molvik and stay there until they learn their classes. Make all items needed for 90% capped templates available through questing, or update molvik BP gear so they at least …

  • RR means nothing in group play, and might still only come into solo play a factor 1/3 of the time. Not being rr5 isn't the problem. Game takes years of learning to understand all those classes and what they can do and how you should fight.

  • null This is exactly what I'm looking for thanks
  • I'm trying to do these quests and I started them but I only got to stygia and I no longer have any info to go anywhere else such as Aerus... I got the initial quest from Destin, and followed the repeatables around Hesperos until I got a quest …
  • Is it just me, or did anyone else immediately think of people like Inter and Enk when reading OP's comments about trolls...
  • Also, do people regularly sell bounty molds for much cheaper than the actual item? what is the going rate for, say, 100k BPs?
  • @Tyrantanic @Fateboi I don't think I get to have the Buggane buff because I am f2p, but I'll check out these ToA quests and just run boxes. Thanks for the info
  • Currently sitting at my computer very confused seeing so many people saying that it's unfair when fresh/new players level straight to 50 and get whomped on by higher RR or more experienced players... No. F*cking. Duh.... I spent 2 years in Molvik…
  • @AlaskaMike you're totally right... after dealing with all these other restrictions as a f2p I then went to a dye merchant and low-and-behold I find out that I can't even dye armor. It was like and "icing on the cake" moment
  • @Menos fyi they nerfed perf a few years back... Yes, SBs were regularly hitting casters for 1500 without a crit. Things are a little different now I think. I definitely remembered when 'sins were ripping everything. It was a bad time for Broadsword.…

  • @Brut I'm all about reverting back to when DAoC was actually good (DF revamp or before), Personally I think ablative stacking back then was normal and fine. I never thought it was a game changer compared to what curse and stuff did to the game. …
  • There other day I banedumped on a BD and he threw a totem down and it was absorbing 100% of my damage for about 3-4 swings which, when I looked back at my logs, was around 1500 damage. I was pretty pissed off that a BD could just insta-drop a totem …
  • At this point in the game ablative and /uses stacking is the same as it was 10 years ago or worse. The problem isn't the stacking, it's having the flexibility in templating to get 20%+ heal bonus on a tank and still cap stats, or 7-10% conversion an…
  • I don't think it's ever been about not being able to pay the $15 though. If you like the game enough, you might as well pay for it, or if you're like me and don't think the game is worth $15, then don't pay for it
  • IMO I don't think if you have been subbed this whole time you would even remotely enjoy your account as f2p. The restrictions are many, and I put up with them because I haven't played in almost a year so it's fun to dabble in even with restrictions.…
  • You can also buy draughts of invigoration (at lvls 10/20/30/40). the lvl 30 draughts work nice with 3 endo regen it will be enough to permasprint
  • @AlaskaMike Yeah warnings are nothing, just deal with it. I sit at a "Severe" level at all times. The mods just keep me there for sh*ts and giggles
  • Agree with so many above. Would totally come back and stay if f2p was more valuable, but I don't like the idea of having to fork over $15/month to people who ruined a game for me. I would much rather play for free and pay money on things I do suppor…
  • 10 seconds is nothing... I have to wait 1:30. Quit being snowflakes
  • @Fateboi it has nothing to do with adapting and updating your templates. I don't think you will understand. Some quick examples, assassins outlasting heavy tanks in 1v1s due to gear creap+ heal procs on items that never existed. Or in 8man, when the…
  • @Sovereign How about the fact that they need population for starters... What's me coming back for free and paying MTX on stuff I want vs paying for a game in a state that I don't want. If it was free I would at least be another body in pvp for ya…

  • I dunno why everyone is so sensitive about having Catacombs back. I mean I honestly love those zones, they are beautiful and fun to just go exploring, but that's the extent of it. There is no necessary quests or gear that we are missing out on. The …
  • Back about 3-4 years ago before the big RP bonuses I would make between 12-24k/hour solo and between 20-50k/hour with a group. I was honestly really fine with the amount of RPs back then. Can anyone maybe confirm if they dialed it back to about this…
