Mechanics = backpedal = fucked waiters

Well last time I take a break for two days.

They pulled the threat range buff, and than Fat Jerry claimed it was never there..... in spite of it right there in Sev's proposal and numerous after posts.

And then they just nuked the ranged alacrity back down to 10% and 20%.

Fucking retards, fucking retarded liars, fucking retarded liars pretending that they never did it.

When? when will the devs actually play this fucking game?

They think they do play the game, which when considered in the context of their mindset of "we're experts and all the players are idiots who just don't understand the unique environment of Turbine Development to which no other industry experience or best practices apply'' means that they think they're super awesome at the game.

they will probably congratulate themselves on how long they "kept it going" never able to see that it could have easily managed to keep itself going for far longer if they had just meddled far less drastically and with some semblance of an actual gameplan.

Hearing something has "merit" but we don't have "time" kind of says everything about how Turbine works on things.

I don't make the game, I just get tested what they build. Sorry you are not happy.

Turbine - So incompetent that we are skeptical when they report their own incompetence.

Other companies will settle for shitting out garbage, Turdbin actually prefers to. Especially if they can get us to buy it, that just cracks them up.

Breaking something and putting it back together isn't as good as not breaking it to begin with, it's not even close.

Devs do not care what players want - they already have an agenda and give out token gestures so the paladins can feel worthy.

The DDO devs aren't motivated by a positive user experience.

I'm not playing or too regularly following development but from my understanding they have completely retooled the xbow animation and process.

Have you tested that on Lama? They said it was very powerful with how it interests now with old mechanisms like feats and enhancements. Specifically, that alacrity now applies to 100% of the animation, making all sources of ranged/loading alacrity operate at 200% their previous values.

Do the math on that for a second.

*I have tested nothing, and this is just what I gathered from Dev posts on the topic and basic reasoning

I haven't done any math on it but the X-Bow animations are much improved (shorter) and I'm definitely getting a bunch more shots off than I used to.

It was definitely a BIG change for the  better for X-Bow users.

I think I get what happened, but the title of this thread is odd.

Repeaters will be the first meta FOTM build. It is a description of seeing the same build everywhere.

Yeah they did work on the animation, keep in mind that was fixing the bugged animation not improving it.

But because that actually worked they took away the primary buff to the class which was +1 threat range and multipier and made it just at the multiplier. meaning a 14 level pally makes a better Mechanic, now.   And yes I have done the testing, I have lived in there on lamma and it is great for character who wants to use a repeater except the Mechanic.

Whats worse is not only did they pull the threat range buff that was proposed and talked about up until the day the preview went live, they also didn't get around to applying half of the other changes that were listed in the preview.

One of the Pallybois ever put up a list of all the things that were in the preview notes that were not even in the previw. Then they fucked up the other half of the things they did put in the preview.

At this point Mechanics have nothing left to do but pull out your chair and take your order at the pub.

And did I mention I did the testing before I posted?

Assassin is also shitastic. No reason to play one over a bard. Ever.

I don't think naming names would be a good thing for me to do, but I'd pretty much add anyone who's a know-it-all dick on the list.� Even if they are sometimes intelligent with their opinions, the way they state them in long, "i'm a lawyer at trial"-type posts makes me want to punch them in the face.� They act like whiney babies with god complexes and then freak out if someone so much as breathes criticism in their direction.

And they made a cool video, isn't that better than making the class playable?

I mean, they're devs, they're not going to play the game or anything, but that video will look great in their portfolio when they're job hunting.
  

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.
