[Cordovan]

The DDO Game Servers will be brought down on Tuesday, September 13th from 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM Eastern (-4 GMT) to launch Update 32: Against the Slave Lords. Thanks for your patience, and we'll see you back in the game soon!

[LucasMacKinnon]

I can honestly say I am pumped for this update. From what I saw on Lam this is going to be awesome for us crafters

So we gain more than we lose (assuming the update comes off without system-crashing bugs)?

Depends on what you value, surely? (but yes, overall this looks like a good one)

new visuals on lootgen armor! whoot!
1) does the elven feytap incorp stack with gear incorp?
2) I missed the changes to cannith challenge gear--it sounds like just spellpower changes? Do things like epic frozen tunic now have a higher DC?

It’s more than just spellpower changes. For example, the spare hand gets skill upgrades, the bonus to saves and AC version of Riposte, and enhancement bonus to doublestrike instead of an insightful bonus.

those release notes read pretty awesome.. lots of small quality of life fixes, very apreciated. Keep em coming :)

My favorite line however is definitely:
The Hall of Heroes has new rugs.
no idea why, it made me chuckle.

[gwonbush]

I think the best quality of life fix is the return of hide armor, whose removal was terribly timed to coincide with the addition of druids.

I'd settle for giving the movement speed to hires, given the amenity involved *g*





Players in Three Barrel cove will no longer see the Fog of War in the public area of the landscape.


YAY

Did the Skirmisher icon get fixed as well? I suggested it in that thread when your intern was fixing tooltips her last couple of days, and she said she had, but it's not listed.

Tier 3 no longer craftable, but is now BtA (instead of BtC) and gains a {{Augment|Green}} and some nice power boosts that make the items fall into line with random generated loot / cannith crafted, and tier 3 is generally (IMHO AFAICT) better than the best random loot.

Must be all the traffic has worn them out already, else maybe someone animated them and they flew away? OR maybe the assassin's guild used them to move all the bodies.. :P

I second this... I may not be psyched about everything in U32 but overall you guys are doing a great job and I really appreciate all the fixes. (Plus you know I'm going to luv sorting through all the new/old armor appearances. ;P)

[Nuclear_Elvis]

RIP, Old Cannith Crafting...

This update does have many Quality Control/Quality Assurance type updates, and for that we are most appreciative.

[sithhound]

/fingers crossed. I'm pretty excited about this update, as well. I didn't mess around on Lama, but I'm ready to check out the updated Cannith crafting. Woot!!!

[morkahn82]

omg! omg! omg! omg! the slave lords coming!! Everybody panic!!!!!!!

[dunklezhan]

Yay, a lot of item fixes - thank you!

Boo - some of those problems have been around a lot longer than they should've been (hide armour, force spell power not working on untyped damage, just to name two).

Yay, Cannith Crafting update - thank you!

Boo - the stuff I dislike about the new system, which I've already taken too much forum space up whining about. But if CC update is what it took to get the various loot bugs fixed after nine months, yay!

Yay, a lot of tooltips fixed!

Boo, you no longer have an intern to fix tooltips!

Yay, new adventure pack!

Bo- oh wait, no boo. Yay!

[PermaBanned]

Light, medium, and heavy armor found in randomly-generated loot can now appear with many appearances that existed prior to their removal in Update 14. As a result, the number of visual possibilities on randomly-generated armor has greatly increased.
Excellent.
Just, excellent.


Hide armor once again appears in randomly-generated loot. Hide Armor is Medium armor, and identical to Scalemail, except it has a different look, is made of leather, and can be equipped by druid wolf pets.
Hell yeah, finally!
When you say "identical to Scalemail" I assume you're referring to stats like Max Dex bonus, Skill penalty etc. Will Hide just have one set of values, or will have the whole Celestial, Spiritcraft, Skirmish & what not varieties?


Randomly-generated weapons now generate either martial or caster effects on a given item.
Nice :)


Insightful Spell Power can now rarely appear on randomly-generated weapons.Hows that a change? I've been looting Insightful this & that Spellpower weapons.


Force Spellpower now grants spell power to untyped and physical magical damage in addition to force damage.Umm... Thought that was always the case? How long has this been broken?


Good, evil, chaos, and law damage effects now break DR.
Thank you

Very nice set of fixes there and very much appreciated.

But, uh...
Arcanotechnician's Arcane Mechanism no longer gives 100 times as much Spell Power as it was supposed to.
Arcane Mechanism: While wielding a Rune Arm, +10/+15/+20 Electric Spell Power, +5/+10/+15 Universal Spell Power.**** I wish I'd known about that....

[Blaze-Of-Glory]

It comes in all of those varieties, and matches Scalemail's stats in each.



Umm... Thought that was always the case? How long has this been broken?

You are correct, and the release note is not clear enough about this change. New Random Loot items (and named items using the new-style "Scaling" effects) that grant Force Spellpower were not also granting Untyped and Physical boosts. They do now!

All other sources of Force Spell Power were (and still are) granting Untyped and Physical properly.

[Nédime]

Of course tyhis has to be confirmed by live play but right n,ow I'm pretty much excited by this update

[morkahn82]

The servers will open in 29 minutes?

[Nyata]

The servers will open in 29 minutes?

no. they are going down in 20 minutes.

[morkahn82]

no. they are going down in 20 minutes.

So, forums time is not actually Eastern (-4 GMT)? Forums time isn't also my local time, so I am wondering.

[Nyata]

Kinda depends on whether you are logged on or not and what time zone you are in. for me it currently displays GMT for some reason I haven't figured quite out yet. maybe should check my local settings :) anyhow, scroll way to the bottom of any forum page, and it will show you the current time zone it's displaying.

well I can't edit the release notes, but I can give you the link so you got something to read.

[ld2950]

What I'd like to know is if update 32 fixes bows to have the correct amount of elemental and alignment damage...It doesn't matter what the bow say 2d6 3d6 4d6 5d6 6d6 7d6 etc the damage is always 1d6..Mind you these damages work on melee weapons just not bows and haven't worked properly since the new loot gen...Peace

[bowtietim]

Boo, you no longer have an intern to fix tooltips!

Gave me a good laugh. Hopefully they get a new tooltiptern.

[Annex]

The new Cannith Crafting will set me free. I collected the equivalent of 110,000 new Essences over the last three weeks and I look very forward to actually having some decent equipment for a change. :)

Yay! I try on every piece of armour and hope to find some glamorous new (old) items to glamer.

[Eryhn]

Fixed an issue where the Broken Music Box's Cacophonic Guard caused performance issues by applying hidden copies of the effect.

Just out of curiosity ... did you fix the musicbox? or the cacophonic guard? cause the Ml15/20 blastic chime has it too and is not mentioned ...

[Cantor]

"Collectibles used in Cannith Crafting now stack to 500."

Very nice for crafting bank usage. This will 1/2 my used slots or better.

Yes.

I don't see it in the release notes (must have just been missed when combing through tons of changelists from the last few weeks) but I can confirm that ranged weapons should now carry their correct power values for on-hit effects.

[Steelstar]

The issue was with the box, not the guard effect itself.

[AnEvenNewerNoob]

They'll probably need that downtime for the hotfix for all the stuff that will be effed up in this update.

Guess this is as good a time as any other to mention:

Please remember that airship amenities may need up to an hour to repopulate after the worlds have re-opened. There is no need to re-purchase amenities, they will show up on their own.

So with the FOM spell fixes, did the getting entangled by spider web bug get fixed...nothing worse than getting stuck in a spider's web while having FOM on you :( (ok, while there may be worse things...when a spells description is not WAI... Houston, we have a problem!!)

Saal :)

[Ballyspringer]

http://i.imgur.com/De9NS9q.jpg

looks like the crafting levels didn't update correctly which isn't just a display error - it's impacting the level of shards I'm able to craft as a level 175 shard is showing 16% chance to craft. From the posts prior I should be closer to level 250ish (which did work correctly on Lamania when I did the character copy)

SCHOOLS AND XP:

There is a single school for the new Cannith Crafting system. The level cap is 400, and your previously-earned Cannith Crafting XP will be added together and carried over.
Level 50: 1,256 Cannith Crafting XP
Level 100: 7,313 XP
Level 150: 30,151 XP
Level 260: 245,580 <- where current maxed out crafters will end up.
Level 340: 472,752 XP
Level 400: 650,040 XP

I don't know about the spell description but the description on the privateers boots specifically says " magic that normally impedes movement.." Spider webs are not considered magical. (The web spell is though.) This was an intentional change quite a while ago.

Goodbye old Cannith Crafting...

You died on September 13, 2016.
You were level 150/150/150 with a maximum of Crafter Level 150 when you died.
--More--

Well, its swings-and-roundabouts and I'll certainly miss certain effects and especially the flexibility of ye Olde Cannith Crafting.

Though I'm sure, I'll learn to adapt and I've had time to craft most of what I wanted to carry over for Heroic Levels. So overall the transition to the new system shouldn't be as painful. Hopefully those Cannith Crafting bugs have been squished. :-)

[Cordovan]

Yeah, you're not the only one.

I should be around the lvl240 mark, but am showing as 150.

We're working to correct this issue. We'll have more info shortly.

[Theolin]

I am stuck at 150 as well ... it did a couple of decon xps then stopped at level 150 30,151 xp ... re-logged still bugged .. should be at about where ever 143*3 would be in new system .. this did work on lamma ... was at 257 I think

[Garix]

We're working to correct this issue. We'll have more info shortly.

Thank you for the quick acknowledgement, hopefully it will be an easy fix :)

if it is not merely a display issue, then there will be a rollback. Do not run quests!

[Garix]

Should be no need for a roll back. The XP looks right (for me at least) it's just the assigned level is wrong.

that's way too much doom for a morning where I'm home sick! At least let the coffee fully kick in before we break out the tinfoil hats

[Eryhn]

shouldnt you, idk, put a msg in the launcher stating if you dont wanna bork your craft level DONT log in? or some such? or just take it down again? for the record: you jinxed it :D

[AnEvenNewerNoob]

They'll probably need that downtime for the hotfix for all the stuff that will be effed up in this update.

:rolleyes:


TOLD YA SO!! :p

[DrawingGuy]

Well, I hope there is a rollback or a GM can fix me... I decided to craft a shard, and it cost me 200k crafting XP as it bounced me down to the level 150 XP level... :(

DO NOT CRAFT if you had over 30k crafting XP pre-U32

[Six_Gun]

Should be no need for a roll back. The XP looks right (for me at least) it's just the assigned level is wrong.

This is a lie. My XP has been reduced to 30K.

[Cleanincubus]

Click here (https://www.ddo.com/en/update-32-release-notes) for the Release Notes.

Collectibles used in Cannith Crafting now stack to 500.

Where is this stacking to 500 supposed to occur? Collectables are still only stacking to 99 in the shared Crafting Storage bank space. To me, this is the only place where stacking to 500 will count for anything.

[Tscheuss]

So we gain more than we lose (assuming the update comes off without system-crashing bugs)?


TOLD YA SO!! :p

Heh. :)

[Ballyspringer]

looks like it's fixed, my screen is showing lvl 253 now - ty

[Garix]

This is a lie. My XP has been reduced to 30K.

Let me see. Is my level now right? Why yes. Yes it is. Was a roll back needed? No, no it wasn't.

Did I take one look at my level when I logged in and think "Hmm...this doesn't look right"? Yes

Did I then think to not do anything until any isse had been addressed? Yes again.

So not a single lie told.

The statement from him was not saying that you were deliberately lying, but rather that a rollback not being needed as a statement was not true because people had drastic effects. Some people, like myself, when posed with a problem look to see if there is something that they can do to fix it themselves. In my case I wondered if I crafted something, it would cause the crafting level to refresh... instead it causes your XP to refresh to the 150 level. That was a 200k XP cost to me as I was capped - something I spent real money on to achieve back when cannith crafting was relevant. I'm not the only one affected, so to fix those that did more than twiddle their thumbs, they do indeed need to either manually set levels or do a rollback of some sort.

Reading fail. Try again.

[Scrapco]

zomg, a silent fix too.

Logged on to my main crafter to check things out - looks good: I was capped, and that put me to 260 or whatever... logged on to my fat dwarf secondary crafter, because he's been hoarding an XP pot from daily dice that was BtC, but I now want on my main... and now it's BtA! Yessssssssss. 400 here I come!

[Soleran100]

thx for clarification. All my stuff is tier 3 so whoot!

Yes but I didn't see changes made to my tier 3 cannith challange gear that reflects the new changes, have you seen changes?

[Soleran100]

Yes but I didn't see changes made to my tier 3 cannith challange gear that reflects the new changes, have you seen changes?

So on this note are we supposed to just make new items to get the scaling affects or can our existing items be upgraded to reflect the changes to current items?

[Cordovan]

So on this note are we supposed to just make new items to get the scaling affects or can our existing items be upgraded to reflect the changes to current items?

Yes, only new Cannith Challenge items will get the new effects. Old items cannot be upgraded.

[Soleran100]

Yes, only new Cannith Challenge items will get the new effects. Old items cannot be upgraded.


Thank you.

[ice584]

Yes, only new Cannith Challenge items will get the new effects.

That is really surprising; the devs always have a quick and easy upgrade path for this kind of stuff. I'd be curious to know if there's a reason behind this. Seems like it should be no more difficult than, for example, the Cove item upgrade process from days of old:
input( old Tier3 item + some inconsequential mats ) --> output( new Tier3 item )

Even if it wipes Stone of Change upgrades and things of that nature and/or only worked on Tier3 items, I would think people would still want some kind of trade-in recipe for the new version.


Old items cannot be upgraded.

So if you can't upgrade them, can we disjunct them and craft on it using the new system? If not, that's pure item depreciation...which could be what you're going for I guess, but that seems odd...unless you're trying to push people to re-run the Challenge content.

[LrdSlvrhnd]

Did the Skirmisher icon get fixed as well? I suggested it in that thread when your intern was fixing tooltips her last couple of days, and she said she had, but it's not listed.

To answer my own question: Yes, yes it did. Whoo! When does that intern return? *g*

The DDO Game Servers will be brought down on Tuesday, September 13th from 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM Eastern (-4 GMT) to launch Update 32: Against the Slave Lords. Thanks for your patience, and we'll see you back in the game soon!

IT only took 4+ years for the crafting update and I appreciate that its finally here, thank you Turbine!

The reason is we would have had to create several hundred conversion recipes, and it was time and cost-prohibitive.

[Nuclear_Elvis]

"Diversion" is still appearing on Ranged Weapons. I was hopeful that the New Loot changes would remove those type errors.

As reminder, "Diversion" states: "+X Enhancement bonus to Decreased threat generated from melee damage."

If Diversion does actually work for Ranged Damage also, then the item's description needs to be edited to reflect "...melee and ranged damage."

If Diversion will never ever work for Ranged weapons, then we need that effect/suffix permanently removed from the loot tables for Ranged Weapons.

I have not confirmed if Incite Suffix also appears on Ranged Weapons, but if it still does, that is a parallel issue.

too bad there wasn't generic 'item exchange' tech....

[QuantumFX]

Gee, if only there were some place (https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/477782-Cannith-Crafting-Runearms-and-Challenge-Gear) for you guys to announce (https://www.ddo.com/en/update-32-release-notes) that you were going to not do conversion recipes. :rolleyes: It would have been a lot easier than having hundreds of ignored posts asking the same **** question.

At the very least, it would have been an opportunity to allow the community to help turn “several hundred conversion recipes” into “several conversion recipes”. ex. You could have just done recipes to turn old gear into a random collection of cannith challenge ingredients. Since you guys finally got around to doing the right thing, and keeping all the gear BtA, I only need 1 of each item on my account, not one for each character. And, it's not like your boss isn't looking for ways to eliminate BtC storage space.

Hell, for the epic versions, 99% of the work is already done. If you guys look at the alter of epic rituals you’ll see that for the low, low cost of 50 syberis dragonshard fragments, you can convert the epic challenge gear. Just point the old recipe to the new versions of the items and call it a day.

I kinda love this typo. Especially on my bard. Cracks me up every time I see it.
