Why are the Fabricator's Gauntlets so hard to find?

[patang01]

Unfortunately, the Fabricator's Gauntlets will not be available immediately upon the release of Update 11, due to a bug with them and several other items not appearing in the Cannith Manufactury as intended. The four items are the Tinker's Goggles, Magewright's Spectacles, Fabricator's Gauntlets, and Alchemist's Crown. These items will be added to the treasure table as soon as we can get them in, but we are not able to get this fixed in time for Update 11.

Thanks for letting us know, would you mind at least letting us know the stats on them so we have an idea if it's worth looking forward or not. Especially if you're about to make a pair of Epic or even greensteel gauntlets and might find these more useful instead.

this is becoming a pattern with updates....

[patang01]

Just for fun, could we get a list of what the bugs are?

Like, did the effect from the bracers stack with itself every time it proc'd, causing players to get OVER 9000! strength and constitution?

DANG I just killed harry in 2 hits, how did I do that????

Will these take as long to arrive as the Mindfury Symbiont (or whatever it was)?

Yes thats it but it only worked for Rangers and the Barbs got a bit upset about that

Let me voice my displeasure over this. The new loot was the only facet of U11 I had to look forward to. So without these item sets, I'm left to wonder if I should even bother getting the pieces that I can get. The only thing this update might be offering is the alchemical crafting.

I hope U12 is more than just a content update (as Maj has suggested), because this is a bad year for Turbine to NOT be bringing their A-game (and, at the moment, I would give U11 a D, maybe a C- if I was feeling generous--those hyped up for Arty might grade higher, but I have enough characters that I need to work on, be it leveling or gearing, that a new class holds little interest to me).

Thank you for responding. The communication with players is welcomed.


Respectfully, please do something about the quality control for DDO updates. This is the third time in the past 12 months that loot has been missing from chests. It's a pattern that warrants attention and revision to the release process.

[Entelech]

Thank you, Cordovan, for replying. Honest, complete information is always appreciated.

With the number of changes in this update, I think the QA people have been doing excellent work. There's no shame in leaving this on the "known issues" list while the more critical bugs get stomped.

They have an A game?

Pretty lucky you asked the question and this thread got some momentum, otherwise I doubt we would of had an answer.

Oh, a reminder about the AC issues and the massive thread with ideas and discussion.

[Xaxx]

So 9.11 has been on lama for about a month now and you were told right away that people were looking for this and couldnt find it and asked if it was in game... and what does a dev say... he gives a hint to check the outer names.... NOW your saying that oh sorry we thought they were in and we tried to give you a hint but oh wait no they weren't in oh well.

Really?

You had multiple builds to check and see if the drops were working right, you nerfed fvs wings and got that done in a week because what... a few people moaned that wings would be op in one of the new raids.... you add some bs mechanic to keep people from ressing in said raids... you do this ****... but yet you cant even check to make sure the loot tables are working properly and now you make us wait for your loot table screw up.... wow are you serious?

Yeah yeah some people are gonna say oh he's moaning cause hes not getting his loot... nope sorry, read what I wrote. They manage to magically pull stuff out of their rears that wasnt in the builds previously and magically make it work in the next build but they dont take the time to check their loot drops.... course.. typical turbine.... I'm really not shocked... dunno why im dissapointed either... since you know this is what turbine does.

[Auran82]

Xaxx has a point, we have been asking about these for weeks, and no-one bothers to check until after no further changes can be made to work out 'whoops, we forgot to put them into the loot tables'

See, this is where I'm mistaken. This is their A-game. Their agenda is frustrating their player base...

Agreed! I would have stated this less vehemently but in essence I agree with this...

Idk what happened... but seriously... get some ppl to work on that... excuses is no good customer service... w/e is bugged can't be as bad as handwraps... so get it on time! thats what deadlines are about

I have to say when I first heard people having problems finding the items originally, my gut was telling me "the Mindfury Symbiont" all over again.

Thanks for looking and replying. Hope you get it fixed soon.

Any chance you guys could give out some info on the stats of the gauntlets? Even a first draft type layout works. Also, does the set bonus of +2 hit/dmg stack with the shintao set or is it redundant? Any kind of light you could shed on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

great.. guess no need to buy the pack either. gj turbine

[patang01]

For all those screaming and wailing heres something : Turbine owes you nothing. Nada. Zip. Zilch.

Your using a service they provide as is and with no guarentees. You entered an agreement to accept this when you clicked that "I accept" button.

If thats a problem then leave. Seriously just go. Delete your toons, uninstall the software and walk away.

I'm really sick of the whiny crybaby entitlement attitude that pervades these forums.

If this is really going to ruin your life how about you use your obvious knowledge to go out and develop a perfect bug free popluar MMO and then get back to us?

i'm sorry, but Turbine does owe us something - not in a particular entitlement kind of way but if they don't make the gamers happy they lose them and their money. You telling us to quit won't really help this game. In fact if enough of us quit because Turbine don't care to make sure we're happy the games goes under. You think WB will let it float on a sea of losses?

I realize that a complex game that promises so many things might not work properly. But as far as I can tell there are many different items that are either not in the game at the moments or doesn't work right. And maybe instead of pumping out new complex content Turbine would do well in ensuring everything works like it should before they add even more stuff that breaks even more things.

I don't mind new content, I even look forward to it. But if you can't really play it then what's the point?
