If we lean Arkat way, they might add Kalashtar as Iconic to go with the Psion...

That would make sense.

That whole episode is one reason I absolutely cannot stand Jerry.
Jerry is a bag of dicks.  He is so full of dicks that he looks like a penis covered porcupine.

I didn't have my completionist status when the last few classes were added. How bad is this going to gnarl up my toon trying to fix it after it drops?  Based on my last ER and LR, I expect the worst.


Well...  On my wife's completionist, she hadn't played for a bit before when the new class was released.  And she never lost her completionist feat/status. 

It wasn't until we tr'd her character into a druid that the option went away.

I'm hoping that is the norm, and not a random abheration.  So you should be able to just leave your character alone until you want to do a TR or something.

COM Drops prolly not going up. But there will be more sources of coms in the future..



Glad I didn't listen for 90 minutes to hear them say the same stupid shit about comms (I listed for about 3 minutes).  Additional sources  of comms would be fine if the drop rate in those sources was reasonable.  I'm sure they will be in sagas at a rate of about 100 comms per saga completion.  Useless, same as the xp/renown reward.

Also, did that one guys mom ever interrupt the webcast to tell him to clean his room?

oddly, now every time I see the word TOLEROoooooo I think of that scene from 10 putting on Bolero, but instead of Bo Derek it's an owlbear.

I like the way Jerry shows what a company focused douche he is early on.  Sham asks a question about what direction they are taking Sentient Weapons and Rowan tries to answer the question and talking about what they are looking at and how the council is involved and Jerry then tries to give the old school Turbine "fuck off.  It's premature to discuss.  You will know when we want you to" answer.  Rowan follows up with "No.  This is important to me.  We  are communicating and working with the player base now".  I took that as "STFU, Jerry.  You are being a dick."

Jerry just doesn't get how to communicate.  He wants to have secrets so he feels cool and powerful.  I hope they fire him.  I don't think  he fits their new communication model.  In fact, they need to clean house of the people who are stuck in the old way of doing things.

Good call.
  

A half-dozen boss Vaulties donated generously with real money to my classroom during a fundraiser in May 2015 to get poor kids books to read. I won't forget that. They know who they are, and they freaking rule.

Sweet! That's a very hopeful sign, maybe the best I've heard yet. It's easy to say you're going to communicate (how many times did ?) but to publicly reprimand a subordinate for trying to block communication is actually doing something about it  Smiley
  

Turdbin, keep changing the DDO rules, because McDonalds sold over 200 billion hamburgers by changing the recipe for their Special Sauce every couple of months to keep interest up.

The other thing that was clear was that they are going to continue to expand their FR content base.  Adding Anaouroch and such.

If they are going that way, they really need to look at a few changes.  Easier access to guild airships and potion and scroll vendors in FR.  And if they add a lot of public instance areas (like Wheelon) they need to consider Teleport scrolls that work in FR for FR locations.  Also need to get a "Fred" over there.  A stone of change, etc.  Some little things that are annoying to have to haul your ass all the way back to Eberron for.
