Nothing is ever his fault.

I must admit, I would love to see blurry on some random items at lower levels...and not just crappy trinkets like the dusk heart...but seriously starting to hate ghostbane and riposte, ran six Von 3 last night and seriously all the ghostbane made me want to disappear.  Good thing is the guild is still lvl 98, so could pick the favor item every run...

Yeah it's only bracers but it makes tr easy especially when you combine it with a source of ghostly later on.

I'm pretty sure management is capable of having caused this through lack of foresight.

I'm not sure FoS is capable of having pre-engineered the drama in this fashion through having great foresight.

I think it was a confluence of a) FoS starting something that couldn't be finished in time, b) time running out, c) shit getting pushed out unfinished due to management timetables, and d) the current backtracking to lay blame.

I hope not,  from the sound of your shitty posts any game where you are not is automatically made better.  You being gone is probably the only thing keeping a mass exodus from happening that would result in ddo closing down the servers.  On second thought,  go back to ddo,  I want to watch it burn.

Oh you are a one! Such comedy! Really, perhaps you should consider a career in stand up.

My posts may be shitty but amongst most here they at least stand out like solid stools in a sea of diarrhoea.

Yeah! Maybe I should find some self-inflicted meme to make me "famous" on the Vault, like quitting and rejoining every time I post, so I can feel special.

Or maybe I'm usually doing something better than hitting F5 on here but today I'm idling away the minutes 'til a wonderful dinner rotating round a few forums I like to frequent.

Today, I've added the following into our internal development build. This is the build that will eventually become Update 21. Depending on circumstances and approvals, some of this may be able to be pulled into a patch before Update 21.

The Burst prefixes will come back. I've seen a lot of people asking for them. While they're not as powerful as the "Flaming II" you could get instead of Flaming Burst, but they are very close and not everything needs to be exactly equal... it does help to have some variety.
Flaming Burst
Shocking Burst
Icy Burst
Acid Burst


New weapon AoE damage prefixes that can appear on Epic-level loot.
The below list of prefixes appear rarely in addition to one of the normal things you'd get as a prefix on your item. They match roughly in theme- as an example, Tempestuous could come with either Shocking or Shrieking paired with it.
Some of these are old names, but they do new things.
Infernal - 2% Chance On Hit: A blast of flame ignites your target, dealing 4 to 16 damage per Minimum Level of this item to all nearby enemies.
Meteoric (Can only be found in the highest level treasure) - 2% Chance On Hit: A falling star strikes your target, dealing 3 to 18 Fire Damage and 1 to 6 Bludgeoning Damage per Minimum Level of this item to all nearby enemies. Affected foes must also make a DC (20+Item Level) Reflex Saving Throw or be knocked prone.
Glacial - 2% Chance On Hit: A burst of glacial frost chills your target, dealing 7 to 14 Cold Damage per Minimum Level of this item to all nearby enemies.
Erosive - 2% Chance On Hit: A blast of acid corrodes your target, dealing 3 to 18 Acid Damage per Minimum Level of this item to all nearby enemies.
Tempestuous - 2% Chance On Hit: A bolt of lightning strikes your target, dealing 1 to 20 Electric Damage per Minimum Level of this item to all nearby enemies.
Righteous - 2% Chance On Hit: A blast of holy energy strikes your target, dealing 3 to 12 Good Damage per Minimum Level of this item to all nearby non-good enemies.
Kinetic - 2% Chance On Hit: A burst of magical force strikes your target, dealing 3 to 12 Force Damage per Minimum Level of this item to all nearby enemies.



4 new weapon suffixes: (Bringing the amount of suffixes at each given Enhancement Value to between 12 and 14)
Humanoid Bane (Combination of Human Bane, Elf Bane, Dwarf Bane, Halfling Bane, Orc Bane, Goblinoid Bane, Monstrous Humanoid Bane, Reptillian Humanoid Bane, and Giant Bane.
Natural Bane (Combination of Animal Bane, Vermin Bane, Plant Bane, Magical Beast Bane, and Fey Bane)
Feeding (On Vorpal Hit: Target incurs 1 negative level, you gain Temporary HP)
Draining (On Vorpal Hit: Target incurs 1 negative level, you gain Temporary Spell Points)


This is just a start. There's a lot more I'd like to do.
Armor, shield, and accessories will get new things as well, as will spellcasting weapons.

That is still a drop in the bucket compared to to all the options that were taken away...how is that fucktard still not getting it?  Bring back ALL the MOTU affixes, period!

P.S. No one cares how much you WANT to get done feather, they care about how much ACTUALLY gets done.

Manager made me allocate resources last minute.

I attempted to warn them saying it was incomplete but they said fix it later.

So I secretly hoped that by opening enough polls with Ghostbane would lead to a public out cry on the forums. And I hope this lets me keep my job. I'm so fuked! Cant lose pay checks so close to holidays...

And, so I'm drinking ammaretto sours late Friday night in my office getting really drunk off girly drinks because who wants to be fired by Turbine? Really. That'll look swell on my job res.

Maybe If I tell them they'll get a few other really neat augments! And promise to keep updating dev notes!!!!

hmm, that's my guess too...

FoS does not communicate with the community unless he has something to gain from it.

Yeah, this charme offensive is a bit fishy.

No transparency for months and not, all of a sudden daily updates? Maybe we should just be lucky that this is not on a hourly basis on twitter - leaking like the prostate of a 70 year old.
