I expected exactly what was advertised in the purchase panel. At very bottom there was the expected scheduled release for November 4 up to December 4 in case of delays. Since it could have been a month of waiting and I found that notice, I decided to make it known to the rest of you scum  Tongue

I expected it to be released on time and full to the gills with bugs or delayed by 2-3 weeks, so 1 day late is a pleasant surprise (so far)

There's a Strimtom dev interview about it. I've watched about half of it.

The thing that stands out the most is that Cordo pronounces "saga" as.. "sahhga" with an "a" sound like in "apple".

It hurt my ears.

I see they already deleted Arkat’s post asking why Lynabel was using a processor on their voice.  While it’s a lot deeper than what I heard before, I assumed it’s from testosterone treatments.

Interesting. Not allowed to ask questions, I guess.

I listened to the rest of the video btw. I don't know which is which by voice. But, no one sounded like electronically voice-changed. They sounded like different acoustics from different rooms/offices imo.

Those aren't the SSG servers.  You know that those things look like the ultimate rats nest of wires that would win awards for server-gore.

Here's the new permanent Bard hirelings, in case you were wondering if they might be worth the extra dough.  Roll Eyes

Level 5:

That hireling has the one thing I've wanted in a permanent hireling.

Raise Dead.

Everything else is irrelevant.  You can Jibbers and summon the hireling and then the hireling can raise you.

Means no more parking a hireling at the door to raise you when you solo content (well... at least at level 30+). The only thing that I would have liked more is a gold seal permanent level 9 Cleric hireling that did exactly that.

The only hireling I give two craps about aside from the level 3 cleric that pulls levers for me and gives me back spell points when I fuck up badly enough to need them.

Is there some known issue where the new quest would pro quo is not giving favor or counting its completion?  Because It is irritating me that it was done, and yet ...nothing

I hear ya on the worthy aspect.  I’ll get it to keep things fresh.  But you can keep your unicorns and pets.  And make the teleport item something you can earn like eveningstar key.  I’m sure I will eventually al la carte some of the stuff when I get around to doing more tr’s.

Basically it was pushed back so far that I wasn’t in a rush.  I do notice less LFM’s because I don’t have the content yet.  Also hear people complaining about augment system.  But seeing as I know shit about them, I don’t have to complain.

I’ve only played the first few quests. It doesn’t suck, imo. But the fear is lackluster. Augments will be nice though. No question there.

They apparently plan on converting lots of old loot into augments too. I think that’s a good direction actually. Makes older content relevant.

Seems fun.  It's a bright airy light colourful explore zone.  Good flavour change. 
Done couple of missions and they are interesting flavourful design,
the spring one is interesting and full of flavor. 
the windmill one made me laugh, very silly, but kind of fun.

They suck.  The color blue is everywhere.  Quest givers as tiny pixies with tiny chalices can suck a dick most of the non augment loot is awful. The drop rates seem bad but that could just be bad luck.  One quest so far as I know doesn’t give credit for completion in the log.  Tiny fucking quest givers.  For some people it seems the tuning fork takes you to the manor and for others the hut.  Fuck explorer area quest running (a constant do problem IMO)  tiny fucking quest givers No way (that was seen by my group) of leaving the clack except running through the explorer or using a teleport item from another pack.  Oh did I mention tiny fucking quest givers.

Not stated openly but here is Lynn's comment

Quote:
Not saying this to be contrary, but whenever I see players wax poetic about the ddo days of olde, they make a point to emphasize the longevity of gear. Is there a point where gear longevity hurts, you think?


https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/518972-U48-Preview-2-New-Named-Loot/pa...

This must be read into the contest of a player asking him a question about raid loot from 5 years ago and why we needed that loot right now. Keep in mind that pretty much all new craftable augments require raid loot that is minimum LV 28.

They said absolutely nothing about making VERY old epic loot relevant. I believe this is in part due to the fact that the best legacy epic items are practically impossible to farm anymore. Epic ring of spell storing is the rarest item in the game requiring an average of over 4000 runs to get. If they tried to make old raids loot relevant people would complain (and rightly so) about said items being impossible to farm. We need a revamp of said old loot system first so it's no wonder they didn't even tried.

insert whiny bullshit here

you sound like a petulant 5 year old. loot design missed the mark a bit but still has sidegrades and cool pieces, the main area is a little too blue big deal. read the fucking description of the tuning fork, it tells you why some teleport to the hut and some to the manor. theres literally a djinni that teleports you to eberron next to the summer patron. are you just retarded?

this is a well done xpack. quests are fun and look cool, good mechanics, small hallways and rooms to fight in punish the ranged kiting bullshit, displacer beasts are literally anti-ranged. fuck ssg all the way, but i can recognize when they did something right.
