welll..been in rtv every night since posted...guess what...no recipes still..
come on castle...did you find anything?...update on this plz -
footstomp is ok....best aoe?. matter of opinion really
sheild charge or lightning rod are better eye candy for sure.
thunderstrike isnt really a knock back more of a knock down. it doenst scatter like mace use to where your chasing things around all day
also its a pbaoe but its not like your typical pbaoe.. some reason i think it should be a targetted aoe by the way it handles.it wont knock down everyone in your surrounding area..just the ones by the guy you have tarrgetted
as too whether or not to pick ice/elec or ice/ss...i say if your gonna pvp at all take the /ss. if not..whynot try out the new candy for tanks...i know i am! -
i have two as well...didnt use to but frankly was running out of slots at the time and that was before we were able to get slots ....but i happy i did. saves alot of time on tons of things
-
yeah how many we need in waves for beta geeze...if you need 5 waves of peeople then just open it up already..clearly you need more then are willing to help test it

1. If they entered PVP zones with their namesake characters, you wouldn't get PVP. You'd get all the fanbois begging for yellow titles. It'd make you crazy.
2. If they datamine correctly, they don't need to play. Why waste time on personal, anecdotal evidence when the Real Numbers tell the True Story?
--NT
also remember when at that point she was "suppose" to spawn every like 27 mintues and she only spawned once a day?..
we said to the devs hey shes not spawning...what did they say?...yes she was spawning
until many cries later they actually went IN the game and tried it themselves to realize it wasnt. the point is sometimes its not the numbers or the data but actual playing that counts.
datamining is great...but never tells a whole story.
that said im not a fan of just sitting on datamining ...oh clearly you never pvpd with the cox people cause when we did some of the test ...trust me no titles were being ask..it was more like gang war on the cox rep. -
i want a name that i know isnt being used so i sent in my email
if i cant get it then ill stick with this...only want one name
-
just looked at my rep...one of them says "bugger off old timer"
ermm....ok? -

Regardless of the outcome of your Rewards Team (aka Synapse
) analysis, this is why you guys rock: thanks for the feedback, Castle. I love that you take the time to post an "I hear you" reply, rather than staying silent and having us wonder if you know or care about the issue.
yes its find..but a report of his findings would be better. -
an i.o roll would be ok like as they do in sirens
use the points system in rv...get too 1000 and get a roll or even just a chance of a roll...doesnt happen alot in rv anways . or make it every 100 rep or something.
any new point system would help then its current position -
i fought one the other night on my fire/fire tank
we stale mated until sudden death then dot = wins
chalked up a very unhappy wp/ss tank..this is a very good lesson though to understand what pvp is and how its played in both arena and pvp zone.he didnt know about sudden death in duels.
although ill admit those pvp procs hurt like hell in a one on one...the -res is a killer one to have -
Quote:yet you almost always forget a few details that hurt players..lemme add onto your rewards systemOriginally Posted by Castle
Yes, they are very rare. This is by design. Since they drop from players, they pretty much *have* to be rare.
Think about it this way: Say there is a 1 in 10 chance of a recipe dropping. In normal PVP play, that would make it relatively uncommon and a decent drop rate. However, players could also line up and let a friend kill them repeatedly. Let's say in this circumstance, a player can kill an average of 10 characters per minute. That would mean 1 recipe per minute, roughly.
Our reward scheme is not as naive as what I outlined above, there are other checks to help prevent the Conga Line of Death style of farming, for instance. Still, there are major concerns regarding these becoming too prevalent.
Now, all that said, I'll ask the Rewards Team to take a look at the data and see if we are happy with the overall drop rate.
when you place a player defeat recipe in this game you HAVE to take into account the amount of people who actually pvp. since you have no pvp server you can go by just 1-10 andcut it so it isnt as farmed.
the issue here is the same 10 people i play with everday are on..we get 300 people on guardian at high time.
freedom has 900...this gives them a bigger advantage and us it hurst severely. your rewards shouldnt hurt the player based on which server they play on..and it has done just that.
out of the 300 that play on guardian i can honestly say maybe 50 will actually pvp ..that includes blue and red side.
never on at once..never reaches more then 15 in the place at once and if it does...VERY rarely..and if it is.its loopsided since alot dont play red side at all or vise versa. you simply cant put in a reward system based on b asic reward set up with the current server set ups
its unfair for players right off the start. the "go move to freedom" speech wil not help out the freedom players nor help guardians low population
if you want to keep the rewards the same then everyone should have the same chance or its an unfair player reward.
server merge is the only way you can fix it with your current rewards system without making us a pvp server -
:edit" just looking into and getting a were happy or not will be better then a pvp server...although that wouldnt be bad either
i honestly dont think their ( the drop rates) right at all...i think their somehow over exposed in all the changes youve made...they can be rare...but i pvp everyday and to not get any for a full time pvper says alot about how they currently are.
if i pvp everyday and never get one..i say theres an issue. -
Quote:if the devs went in on their "regular" ( supoosedly they say they play this game) toons and said come get some..dont you think the server would die just from the amount of people enterting rv?Originally Posted by enrious2
Why would the devs start pvping now, when they haven't before, except to discourage people from pvping?
i just want to be able to get a recipe if their out there.hell i want a "chance"...but as of now..theres no chance atm. oh they say there is..but this is coming from those that dont enter pvp zones. they datamine for years then make the changes. -
you dont get it...i am a billionaire.. but this had nothing to do with money.
yes it has everything to do with drop rate ..thers barely any in the ww/bm atm ..supplies are VERY small.
so buying some of them isnt EVEN an issue cause there isnt any in stock!
so if theres none to buy i HAVE to pvp if i want any. so i am..
and still they dont come.
if i go to the ww/bm and theres none there i have to go where they drop, if i go there and they STILL dont drop then theres an issue. -
Quote:how does a pvp recipe drop?Originally Posted by BillZBubba
What does being on a particular server have to do with anything? Aren't all the markets tied together by faction?
-
im in rv everyday *shrugs*..their still not dropping
yes if more showed up they would..however that was also a case of a rebalance that went over as well as e.d. did..
remember when sally first came to us in this game and we told the devs she wasnt spawning correctly and they didnt believe us..we had to complain for months till they actually got on the game and tried it themselves then went...oh...your right
maybe they need to pvp a while...i know their busy with issue 16. but this is their 3rd time screw up...they were fine when they first came out so it wasnt so easily turned in the bm/ww's by the leecher flippers..
also being on a "low population "server doesnt help...this is why the drop rate must be fixed...i dont want to be FORcD to change servers to get better chances in thisgame. its not my fault people leave the server or they dont merge servers.my server was hopin before pvp came out -
you gotta be kidding me...i know your busy and all..but theres no way you wanted pvp recipes to barely exsist at all at this point do you?
the drop rate is making recipes over 1 billion for one recipe. theres no way this is working as intended
i know were busy and all..but you have to look into the drop rate. theres no way its right. -
if you want better end then youll have to use your primary sets to better your recov rate
there are plenty of ways then just uniques.
you can start with impervium armors for resist damage and gift of ancients for defense
throw in a miracle,numina and the ps + end will help
later on if you can afford them the pvp i.o's and purples are even better. but its more then a start .
