Again, with the way YOU play, you are saying reaper is either 1 or 10.

But, if you have seen some people in action, they max/emp and chug pots, have the specific gold hirelings that provide certain buffs and send them to their doom endlessly / bug the AI. They min/max the playing level depending on the quest itself.

Do I play it? No
Have I seen people who min/max play it? Yes
Can there be exploits usable on HC? Absolutely

Not spoiled grapes.  Your sound just like SSG personnel who only know one way to play the game (except they play it worse). 




In theory you are right.   In reality, the experiences of people actually playing on hc and the leaderboard disagree.  The results just aren’t there.  But feel free to base your decision entirely from watching other people play on twitch while sitting on the guild boat.

I'm not saying there is zero advantage.   I'm just saying it isn't this massive advantage.   I honestly think we are basically just arguing about where we are on a continuum.   Probably a lot closer together than not.    But over-stating the minor stuff and using to argue against the extremes instead of the actual position.

Just like you can't heal stuipid, you can't buy smarts in the DDO store.   Nor is there any purchase that guarantees a reward (besides dice rolling to cap 20 for the cloak).  All you can buy is a larger margin against outlier events.   Which can allow a smart, prepared player to actually achieve the rewards.   A dumb player will just be spending money and still dying far before they achieve anything. 

Smart play > store advantages on HC.   By far and away.      

Smart play plus store advantages >> smart play without store advantages

I’m going to die before level 5 no matter what I buy in the store, but a good player with a thicker margin of error afforded to them is going to do a lot better than a good player who has to skate on the razor’s edge.

The part that bothers me most is that I know SSG designs shit to make you want that stuff from the store instead of just letting people run around in game with the stuff people get in game. I’m thinking about the reaper healing penalty plus store healing potions in particular.

Of course I can’t really expect too much from a company who added a new griefing PK bug into their game at the same time as they introduced the permadeath server and didn’t bother to fix it even after a couple of hotfixes/patches.

It’s a shitty thing to do to people either in quests or out of quests, but I dislike SSG even more for
Their part in this than I dislike the griefers

Hmm, maybe I'm wrong.  Maybe p2w isn't a significant advantage.  After all, I suppose you could make the argument that if p2w was much of an advantage, you'd be doing better. 

Then again, this is coming from someone who keeps using the word best without knowing what it means so your argument is still suspect.

Worse, your best effort was using one of the most currently OP'd, easy-mode builds plus a p2w tree and you only made it to level 14 and 6th place.

Congrats on your p2w average of 24th place accomplishment, sir.


Remove your sock. Reveal your true self, faggot. Take a dick in the town square for all to see, let your rainbow freak flag fly and take that whole gay, I'm broke, sub-par game-boy, forum whiner, lag, DDO waaa up your ass sideways. It's what you do best, take it all in so to speak.

The advantage p2w stuff provides is pretty significant in the early levels.  It tapers off in upper heroics and epics. 

It's still p2w though.  Call it what it is, accept it, and own it.  =P

Stop trying to move the goalposts from it's not p2w to well, it's p2w, but p2w won't fix stupid.  That's so obvious it doesn't even warrant being brought up.


You're a whining faggot. I'll mail you some chalk so you can draw on the street for free. Then you can just draw to win. That should keep you occupied between sucking dick for food. Crybaby.

You're a fucking clown.

I mean honestly, were you his bitch and then he cheated on you? Because that is how you act.

Fixed.
Ordinarily I'd say a semi-colon works better, but a semi-colon wouldn't properly fit all of what you're suggesting in this case.
