Reset ransack as well.



Does ETR reset all that, or do you have to heroic/racial/iconic?

EDIT: Wiki says ETR does not. Anyone tested?

I thought it was just an LR, tbh.

Whaaaaaa?

Let's see if I've got this straight. I think I saw you say that you can do a full TR in about 90 minutes. From what I've gathered, that means using a combination of XP boost pots and ottos boxes, then running some quests to get the last few levels or something like that... about right?

So, people are spending real money and ~90+ minutes of game time (plus associated overhead like dealing with TR cache) just to reset ransack? If so, well, I guess I can't argue with Turbine/SSG's plan, because it appears to have worked... Shocked

I guess it might make sense (excluding the real money part) if people don't run alts anymore. Did TR basically kill alts?


How bad do you want that shiny new loot? It didn’t kill alts as long as you trade your wallet and your spare time.

I left this game because they were going too far into the grind... that was right around the time they introduced the completionist feat or status or whatever it is. I, uh, guess that my departure didn't change their minds, heh. They didn't merely double down on the derp, they cubed it.


You and many. This was one of the reasons I quitted. Thought heroic completionist feat is balanced imho. Things started deteriorating with the addition of epic/iconic pls, but still tolerable (you could still compete with a character with few past lives). After reaper + racials on top of the epic/heroics/iconics (not to mention tomes that bascially you gotta buy to have the best), everything went off tracks and many quitted.

Alts died, but now that many have most the pls and rp on their mains, seems for some they're returning. I mean, because after wings reaper points don't help really.

It takes me on average about 15 minutes to complete a single Heroic or Racial life using Otto's boxes, I would say around 8 minutes for an Iconic life, or 5 minutes for an Epic

These times are from the start of one life to the start of the next life

Do not try the patience of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocation of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things.

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Those are really low tr times, you must really hate the game to want to play it so little. lol

You should just offer to supercharge people’s toons. $2500 triple everything - you log in, run your scripts, dude wakes up super man.

TR punched alts in the stomach. Reaper killed them.

I’m working on my 3rd set of wings. Not terribly interesting, but better than solitaire.

As someone who's got every pastlife, I can vouch you really aren't superman. Atleast not anymore with mob stat inflation.

I mean you're a golden god throughout heroics and low skulls. But you're still paper mache like everyone else in higher skulls.
