Anything New

[Bobbyd]

Hey guys,


I havent played for about 3 or more months, my account is still active. I see that there have been a few new quest as well as level cap increase. Is there anything else that has imporved game play that i may have missed? Tinkering with the idea of coming back for a bit. Is everyene still grinding temple of the vol? I left about a month or so after the last update..

However I do see that scar is posting on the ddo website again......

Is that like Tempest Spine?

Its the new raid and its like a lvl 17 raid - 5 quests need to be done then you're on a permanent flagging unlike Dragon or DQ. Its multiple parts from separating the mini-bosses and killing them simultaneously to everyone having to solve their own puzzle in separate rooms. Lots of communication is needed to get it done. But its not impossible which most consider the Abbot to be. Most of the new quests are fun challenges as well - 1 is a nightmare - 1 is all dark - 2 are keep someone alive - so really good mix.

I'm really liking the new mod - I think they upped the loot tables as well - I've been pulling some nice items that I usually don't see. Multiple +6 stat items etc.

too bad they're all Hardness:2 and Durability:10 :mad:

I agree with Jules, great new content. Some of the quests get a bit long (ok, just the one!) but overall I think it is MUCH more fun than the last release. Love the Ram's Might on my Ranger too!

Haven't pulled too much good loot myself, but I did run into the issue Binnsr eluded to. Traded for a pair of +6 Dex gloves, ran a quest, perm damage. Repaired, ran a quest, perm damage. Checked them vs my +5 Dex gloves I've had for months (with NO perm damage)....durability/hardiness is WAY lower. They now sit in the bank.

Nice... sound like something to do for a few weeks.

Maybe it's a nefarious plot to get people to use the stones of change... you know... whatever that recipe/ritual is that increases an item's hardness/durability (and no, Scar, you caNOT put your epeen in there, sheesh).
