Doesn't do anything for me.  does the ML have to be higher than 26 or just any ML will work.

Profit.


My buddy in guild managed to get his 9th signet tonight, so I watched him do an LR+20 and then a TR immediately after.  Here are the results:

Have 6 signets.
Trade for tome.
Barter is gone.


True, anyone can verify that.  When you trade for a tome that option disappears immediately.

Use LR 20 and check barter window. Report back.
You get another +5 tome token that you can use immediately.

Not work? Do a TR.
Check barter window. Report back.


Third +5 tome token, which you cannot use as you are only level 1.

I have a wizard which will have 6 signets soon, so I'm probably going to go for the TR tonight on him for the second tome.  I suppose if I wanted to try and get 3 more sigs I could try a regular LR as well.  But I doubt I can do that.

I don't think it's worth it to do a TR for a third tome, since you're basically losing an epic past life in the process.  I'll probably do the LR thing.  I like the way turbine designed the mabar mechanics to reset after reincarnation.

Probably not worth it if you're at 28 no, he wasn't.  21 or 22 I think.  Can't remember.

My wizard is only just 20, and a first lifer so he needs the two tomes and the wizzie past life.   The TR is worth it for sure on him.

I confirm extra tome if you do either the FREE LR or the LR20.

I knew shutting down Mabar early was due to player benefit, not "lag" issues.

Does it really matter if someone is getting 3 tomes on one toon and others get 3 tomes on 3 different toons? I mean... in both cases they are losing 3 +5 tomes o.O

And if it's really that 'bad' from Turbines point of view... why don't they just shut down mabar, fix the LR/TR thingy and bring it back 1-2 weeks later. Or hey... just disable TR/LR while mabar is running... So you could force more players to do mabar Cheesy

And I still think the lag isn't worse than the last two years. Even at us peak hours I usually manage to succeed 2 of 3 runs.

Some people can't afford the loss of blood flow to their real brain.  If they have to ask about that exploit at this point,  it's pretty obvious they can't multi-task.

Get augments with alts.

The REAL question right now is:

Two days left (including today), they close it down "November 1st early morning". So that means a whole evening to get a 3rd signet, am I getting this right?

From what I could tell this is correct, yes.

Sweet.  I have 6 Lessers in one of my character's banks from the lottery days.  I should be able to pull off enough signets on about 4 chars or so.  Going to finally get to use them!

I haven't noticed any of your toons logged back in Shady.  When I'm home tonight I'll spin the list and see for sure though.

I'm guessing it was just a grudge against you.  Wink

Also, clearly I need to learn how to use the mark and quote thing.

No worries, it's not really that important I was just curious.

Put devotion in pinion.  That neg level augment isn't the same as life stealing, it's only 1 neg level on a vorpal.

In theory, after the LR you can earn a signet again, regardless of server time reset. So try to do this when several dragon groups are going active, instead off peak. Time zone willing, ofc.

Thank you for the info! Just a last question for the pros:

After TR, I can immediately LR, or is there some kind of timer running?

Earn signet, LR, trade signets and earn new signet. Wait for time cross, then earn another signet. Then TR. Trade signets, if not enough you can earn another signet immediately.
So, timing is critical with an early nov deadline.

And LR before TR because it may be easier to get a full dragon run at 20 vs 1-6.
