32 point build from store

[Undeadrat]

Is the 32 point build from the DDO store accross all servers or just on one? If accross all servers, what about those that unlocked 32 point by grinding? Will they now have 32 point builds available on all servers?

Buying it unlocks it on all servers.

Grinding for it only unlocks it on the server you get the favor on.

Same with the Favored Soul class.

[Undeadrat]

So... unlocking favored soul on one server requires you to obtain more total favor then it takes to unlock a 32 point build but costs about half as much to buy from the DDO store? It doesn't make sense to me.

This should be changed to reflect the relative difficulty to unlock these things through grinding favor imho

I think it's because the favored soul is just a class that you can play as, but the 32 point build affects every character that you roll from then on.

I'm sure if they would have came out with the favored soul before 32 point builds, it would be flip flopped, FvS at 1750, and 32 point build at 2800 or whatever. They came out with the 32 point build back in 2006 or 2007, and the FvS just recently.

True they came out with fovored soul later but they are inserting the veteren unlock at 1000 favor so it looks to me like they could have inserted the FvS earlier down the favor list.

They could have, but when they released the 32 point build, the max favor you could get was only around 1800ish. Now that you can get over 3000.. they had to add something up the chain for people to grind to.

I was against it but now thats happening just let it go we fought we lost no big deal.

Best thing would have been if they added 32 point builds and the incarnation system at the same time.

Basically it should have been like this for everyone:

All chars start with 28 point builds.

When you reach 1750 favour on a character that character and that character only gets the option to do a reincarnation and be upgraded to 32 points at level 1. Characters should be able to choose between 2 different reincarnation ways.

Option 1: Upgrade to 32 points at lvl 1 and level up like TR on Lammania today. For those that want a completely new build with different class(es).

Option 2: Upgrade to 32 points and level up to same level as before reincarnation. Like GR on Lammania today.

But I guess its too late for that

As far as changes go, it doesn't make me wish I did anything different with my...

...skills (e.g. balance),
...feats (e.g. toughness),
...class selection (e.g. evasion),
...alignment (don't you dare, Turbine),
...and base stats (e.g. divine might).

Therefore, I'm OK with it.
