	Took a break and un-subbed during summer amidst all the talk of ED revamp + real life kicked in with the lockdowns coming to an end. So how was U51? Should I think about coming back or start my D2R campaign Winter is coming so I need something while holed up at home

	Its pretty meh. If you like rebuilding/re-gearing and think that specific part of the game is fun, then welcome back. If you actually like the rest of DDO... start that campaign and don't look back.

	I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

	TL;DR: Gear - things changed. Named items got nerfed hard. Your build is 1 or 2 tiers lower than it used to be, but still fine. If you like theorycrafting a build, get back to it. Quests - heroic is pretty much what you remember plus some quests. Because of new ED system you're weaker at lvl 20 and stronger at lvl 30 than you used to be relative to mob progression - epic mobs got nerfed too, it's pretty similar. Meta - Casters got nerfed pre U51 with spellpower, crit and damage going down. They're now CC bots with meh damage. Monkchers aren't back yet but they're less bad than they used to be. Wolfs are still broken. Self sustain is still holding most melees from soloing; teams usually need a tank, a healer, a cc and anything that does damage. General - Smaller playerbase means it's harder to pug. Also all quests are free for a limited time, so use the redeem code even if you're planning on diablo.

	I see they did a graphical downgrade. New EDs are their stupid fucking enhancement trees, while the old ones had a beautiful constellation set up. SSG ghettoized the loot with their loot standardization and now they have ghettoized EDs. We are getting Soviet Block housing! DDO plays you. Stay on the hamster wheel you dumb retards.

The new one just looks lame.

	There's absolutely nothing epic about these trees Compared to heroic trees, they're stunted shrubs. One quick example, I can get either +5 or +10 HAmp per AP in heroic trees, but I need to spend 3 DP to get to get +10 HAmp in the new ED shrubs.

Thanks for the example... it puts nicely into words what I was feeling when I logged back in and started spending the accumulated destiny points!

	Asking stupid DDO questions for long enough to have a founder's helm.

WTF? Because Lammania was messed up and providing the 4 ap from 30-31. Youll get those points back if the cap ever gets raised.

At this point I'm willing to stick around just to see if we get to those post Isle of Dread return to Ravenloft plans. NGL that Revenant universal tree was music to my ears. I've been waiting years to play undead on classes I enjoy more than Wizard.

It's probably curiosity in the main but when I checked playeraudit to see the impact there'd been an uptick in players.
