I've just run through 5 lowbie quests in a row on Elite and my Bravery streak is 1 Hard, 1 Elite and it still says that I am ineligible for bonus XP. Something isn't working right. Do you remember your character level relative to quest level? It seems to only work for quests relatively close to your level. Doesn't seem to work for a level 1 quest on elite (level 3) when you're a level 4.

I'm after it because it's huge and takes a lot of space ( ok, I have room to waste when I'm on Dual screen� , but from time to time I play on the 1280*768 from my laptop... and here I'm not sure I'll be able to see something with the new UI. ) I'm after it because it doesn't show the important thing : the debuffs I'm after it because it doesn't show the last two members of the raid group ( I hope it's a bug ) I'm after it because the Mana/Ki bar is bugged. sorry for the rant. I'm after it because the Blackbird UI Skin has to be recoded due to the UI change. Other than that, they're obviously tinkering with it, and its a good idea to have it. Every other game I've played let's me see everyone's mana and hp already.

I love the concept of the changes but don't need to have the party list fill up a quarter of my screen and still not be all of the party.

Indeed. It needs tweaking in a very bad way. But it's still a very positive change overall.

	Yeah. I like the concept but good grief please lose all that dead space. I can also not find the autoattack toggle thingy indicator any more. I did something wacky to my autoattack and I could not figure out how to get my cleric out of stance. It was very annoying.

	Did anybody see in the release notes something about Trapmaking ? According to what I saw yesterday on Lamaland it seems they made a stealth change to that.

	No more Soul Gems... But Cannith Crafting Essences instead. ( I forgot to check if it was lesser or greater essences ugh, silly me. ) And there's something that uses +x Handwraps ( forgot what is made using the handwraps ) And I'm not even talking of the Altar I found in the Cannith Manufactury... or should I say : Yet Another Kind of Crafting Altar. ( with 6/7 new collecties that go cluttering your already cluttered bags and all )

	I thought that handwrap thingamy in House Cannith was for artificer stuff, although TBH I've paid almost nil attention to trapmaking, so it could have been related to that. Handwraps seem a bit weird though as a base ingredient, I was a bit.... huh? about that.

	well as I encountered it first on House C trapmaking device I thought also that it was something specific, so I ran to the Harbor to check the trapmaking device there, it had the same selection.

	Sweet, people will judge me for my gigantic HP bar and not my crappy playing ability. Who ever said its not the size that counts, but what you do with it must have been out of their mind.

	Quote: How so? I'd love to know what the power curve is set at now. I've gotten rather bored with the game and I'm hoping U11 will spark my interest back in it. Quote: Vanshilar Did some HP testing on Lam. Method used to test HP can be found [url="http://forums.ddo.com/showpost.php?p=2970590&postcount=3"]here[/url]. Figures are in (normal, hard, elite). ToD part 1 Jailer (orthon): Current: 90k 120k 158k New: 118k 160k 325k Tod part 1 Judge (pit fiend): Current: 90k 120k 160k New: 118k 165k 340k Abbot: Current: 135k 135k 135k New: 135k N/A 135k So basically the new normal is roughly like the current hard, the new hard is roughly like the current elite, and the new elite is pretty far out, for ToD. (By the way, the current elite Horoth is 350k HP, as well as elite Suulomades for both VoD and ToD, for comparison). I should also note that it looks like the Jailer now has true seeing (my 20% blurry never procced, although not that big of a sample size), and has fort, which I'm guessing is 25% 50% 75% (although I don't have a big sample size, so just guessing based on what I saw). It looks like the Judge has fort of 50% 75% 100%, although again that's just guessing because of a small sample size. (Current Jailer is ~0% fort for all difficulties, and the pit fiends in ToD are currently all 50% fort on all difficulties.) So there's somewhat of a ramp-up for normal/hard, with elite being very difficult. This is probably to balance out the increase in gear and caster abilities; for example, while previously the "gold standard" for pit fiends was a mineral 2 green steel weapon, now with the advent of Cannith crafting it is +5 holy burst silver of greater bane. Caster DoTs are of course also a relatively recent addition. There is now quite a wide gap between hard and elite. It looks like Abbot's HP still isn't scaling by difficulty -- it's possible this wasn't addressed in time for the current code build on Lamannia. Pretty much as I thought... Turn in your Khopeshes... pick up 2hf and some epic ones or cannith crafted Gaxe.

	I think the changes to fortification would be fine if we could decrease it using Sunder like they said we would be able to.

That would be nice ... but it would also entail feating for improved sunder. Believe it or not I still use that strike on occasions where I see other people struggling to hit. Some bosses also resist it somehow? Never quite figured that out. Contrary to popular belief most melee do NOT hit on a two, especially those who seem to fall under full bab in epics. Most these people write off a two, three or even five as, Oh Well. Yet! you can see it's effect in end fights especially. Smrti knows what I'm speaking of... I like him he's a rather observant fella.

While playing around in eda, wizking, bigtop, etc where bosses have 60+ ac, I find myself having turn off pa. It's kinda sad to me, but I did take a -10 to hit for the extra oomph. I can usually hit (with pa on and gimpy as I am) on a 6 or better in those quests, but you'd be surprised how often you low-roll in this game. A string of misses can make aggro go wonky :p Emi, you only say that because you know I'll catch you slipping one of these days. I do want more stories though, although I don't know when I'll be back online regularly.

But we have our ways. One trick is to tell stories that don't go anywhere. Like the time I caught the airship to Kundarak. I needed a new heel for m'shoe. So I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Kundarak in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt. Which was the style at the time. Now, to take the airship cost a copper, and in those days, coppers had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. Gimme ten bees for a silver, you'd say. Now where was I... oh yeah. The important thing was that I had an onion tied to my belt, which was the style at the time. You couldn't get white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones..

Monks are better for elite.

I suspect for normal runs, people will want blitz style builds. For elite, they will want thf barbs. Monks will be forgotten entirely by pugs.
