Can we please stop the agressive threads ?

Capstone and rings!
Yes, we know they dont work as you'd like to.
So can we please stop making the cry baby threads just to insist on it.

You couldnt count the number of changes that have come to the game over the years. Wether it was meant to work as it does right now or not, we all know there is an issue here: one is a fix while the other is to be fixed. In either case a change will come, so take a deep breath, be patient and be polite as you wait for it to be adressed.

If you are still worried and still wonder if this was designed on purpose, here is a little reminder-quote from the past to give you hope :

Sorcerer Power Surge
Prereqs: Sorcerer Level 20
Benefit: All of your damage dealing spells deal 10% more damage, have their critical chance increased by 3%, and their critical multipliers increased by an additional 0.25.

Obviously, this stacks with all other similar effects, whether they be Potency, Arcane Lore, or the various damage enhancing enhancement lines.

See ? there is no special hate towards the sorcerer, no evil intentions.



(BTW, can anyone solve that Eladrin o-puzzle ? Been scratching my head for a while now)

So, you want to say, contrary to the negative field test reports, our capstone is actually working? Or We should be happy because a dev agree with us that our capstone "should" work (even though it does not actually work)? What's your point?

[Shima-ra]

I didnt say neither of those things.

All I said is that making numerous complain threads on the same subject was impolite.
Forcing the issue is no way being cool to those who can do something about it.

And that quote doesnt mean a dev agrees with us, it was the capstone's preview, back before mod9. It only shows their original intentions, and just like anything else, can be subject to change

Actually Shima-ra you may want to browse the threads concerning the changes made to the look and feel of melee combat. There are lots of comments. Some very nasty. No comments in this area have even come close to that level of impoliteness as you put it. However, one thing you will learn is, their behavior seems to get results. Not only do changes (essentially of a cosmetic nature) get made. They get made quickly. Most here are only asking that certain (real non functioning) issues get at least acknowledge. Namely the non funcioning capstone. Is it really a surprise that the level of frustration is increasing?

The apathy is surprising not the rather mild complaints.

LOL, remove crybabies from DDO???? Never going to happen..... Especially, in the Sorcy forum.... The personality type that seems to prefer sorcys, also sems to be the biggest crybaby personality type in the game

It was a puzzle back, pre update 0. It was solved, but his was only a piece of it. Apparently he hasn't gotten around to changing it.

Still waiting on TnT to post winners and their prizes.

the fact that sorc capstone is not on their bug list, it shows they have no intention to fix, and there are not too many things we can do other than posting complaint on forum. do you have better idea about how to get our capstone work? any more "polite" way?

[tinyelvis]

You know, I have two of the highest level sorcerer raid loot item sets from the highest level raid in the game. Essentially the thing all sorcs should be shooting for.

1. The water ring and belt set (supposed to enhance cold spells)
2. The air ring and belt set (supposed to enhance electric spells)

Guess where both sets are... Go ahead guess. They are in the bank since they really are useless. (the elemental effects are worse than much lower level items and the stat bonus is not even an exceptional charisma buff). If I run out of bank space I just may throw the belts away. Oddly enough, the cleric sets would be the best possible loot set for a sorcerer since at least with the ring you could get the +3 charisma off your weapon and onto an item. However, fat chance of ever convincing the party to give you the ring over a cleric or bard.

Excuse me for thinking that is a little sad. I only play sorcerers and see little point in playing much anymore. When I log, I usually just help guildies get what they need then log off after a bit. Why bother even starting a new toon if you know that when you get to high level the loot and gear situation is abysmal.
