Funny how something that caters to the most people winds up being average....

Armor Up part duex

If you don't want to read the whole thread let me tl;dr what the general forum groupthink is:

- Melee kinda suck at solo R3 heroics compared to ranged

- This is, of course, the fault of DC casters at level 30 in R10's

Yeah, I see this ending real well.

These lazy idiots who want all classes perfectly balanced would also complain about how rock-paper-scissors is unfair and they can't just always win with one over the other two.

Every class has their strengths and weaknesses based on the situation and dungeon.

Oh yeah, DDO is based on a ROLE PLAYING GAME.  Quit fucking up the role playing aspect with your shitty "everyone must be equal in this world".  The 1% will always rule the world. You 99% losers need to just go out in the real world and learn what it takes to become the 1%.

Considering he said "go out into the real world", I suspect his comment was more generalized comment about career, family, etc than just DDO.   It may have even been a call to quit playing DDO and go do something meaningful with that time. 

I could be wrong, but that was my interpretation.

The same could be said about every level cap raise they ever did.   And TR, ETR, ITR, RR.  It's what MMO's do.  They create a mountain to climb.   Once a large enough percentage of the player base climbs that mountain, they build a new mountain.

I think the only way to satisfy the "average players who spend all their time on the DDO forums trying to make everything equal" is to roll the game back to 2006 and level 10 cap with the 4 enhancement slots that had to be overwritten if you wanted a different enhancement.

You can't balance D&D... and they have been trying to balance DDO for 12 years now... and failed.

The only thing left to do, once you get to the peak is Alt+F4. Give me more, deity lives, weapon lives, anything.

Deity lives you say?

Blood of Vol: 1d4 vampirism on melee attacks. Stacks up to three times.

Vulkoor: 1d4 poison damage on melee or ranged attacks. Stacks up to three times.

Silverflame: 1d4 good damage on melee or ranged attacks. Stacks up to three times.

You get the picture...

Get Ready For Reaper Reincarnation!

We are very excited to announce the newest feature coming to DDO: Reaper Reincarnation! For the character that "has it all" this is your chance to "take it to the next level".

Like Epic Reincarnation, Reaper Reincarnation can only be done at level 30. It will also require 10,000,000 xp. But not just any experience points! You will need ten million Reaper Experience Points for each Reaper Reincarnation you wish to undergo. Those experience points, and the associated Survival Points, will be lost, and your character will be reset to level 1.

In exchange, you will earn one of 9 Reaper Past Lives (no other past lives are earned when you use a Reaper Heart).
Dread Adversary I grants +1 to hit and damage in Reaper Mode
Dread Adversary II grants +5 to hit and damage in Reaper Mode
Dread Adversary III doubles the value of all enhancements you take in the Dread Adversary tree.
Dire Thaumaturge I grants +50 sp in Reaper Mode
Dire Thaumaturge II grants +250 sp in Reaper Mode
Dire Thaumaturge III doubles the value of all enhancements you take in the Dire Thaumaturge tree.
Grim Barricade I grants +10 hp in Reaper Mode
Grim Barricade II grants +50 hp in Reaper Mode
Grim Barricade III doubles the value of all enhancements you take in the Grim Barricade tree.

The first feat for each tree unlocks the second, and the second feat unlocks the third.

Reaper Hearts come in three varieties, one for each Reaper Tree. They will be available in the DDO store and in game, for the low price of 2995 Turbine points or 100,000 Mysterious Remnants.
