TR'ing needs and alternative route

[mikesharpshooter]

I mean why can't I just play say 3 more Wizard TR's after my 4th one is done and get the +3 to conjuration or evocation from that instead of having to go through playing a cleric or sorc to get it...classes I have no interest in even playing.

find a girlfriend

[Demaril]

eh eh eh who knows?

btw easily reversible : let a boyfriend find you

[Thrudh]

uhmmmm....no

Why not? You hate playing anything but wizard, but you want different past-lives. GRing with +5 Hearts of Wood does solve your problem. You play from 1-20 as a wizard over and over and over and over, but you gain the other class past-lives that you want.

(You kind of swing from one extreme to another... as someone who used to have 20 alts, why is it so terrible to play a sorc instead of a wizard for a while?)

[Phidius]

Im guessing that it is to encourage diversity of play.

This. Playing different classes in a game where the good gear is BtC means you have reasons to grind gear that you normally wouldn't be interested in, which means more game play before burning out.

For example, I ground out Icy Rainments on my WF Wiz when I was planning on TRing into a fleshy ranger back when the expectation was that the Ranger PL would be Ram's Might.

Actually I am quite liberal about my sexuality...most people who deny they are inherently bi-sexual are in denial.....the rest are just sheltered.

It's fairly silly to expect devs to spend a lot of dev time on a feature that doesn't benefit a lot of people (VERY few people go pure same class every life), have lots of alternatives (TRing to other classes, gearing in instances), and requires you to do something that few people do anyways (I doubt there are that many who TR 3 times of the same class, sure there are a few, but compared to the amount of people who play DDO it's not much).

Sure, it wouldn't be overpowering or game-breaking, but it also wouldn't affect enough people to actually make it worthwhile to spend dev time on, especially considering how it limits your future lives, if say you suddenly decided that you REALLY wanted to become a FvS instead or something.

LMAO...did you ever consider the fact that the only reason people don't do what I am suggesting is because they don't have the option to.

So an option is presented that probably would actually appeal to a lot of people and it's just automatically brushed aside because "there are more important things to work on".

Like what...fixing the lags and glitches that are for one...never fixed...or for two..replaced by new ones...or in some cases both.

And the argument that is is not something a lot of people would do is completely moot.....how many people switched from multi-classing to pure builds once the capstones came out?

A lot.

Because looking back and comparing how my attitude is now to how it used to be when I had 20 alts...I was miserable back then and just didn't realize it.

I'd venture to guess that having 3 wizard past lives is more common than you might think.

[Uska]

I dont think someone who plays the same class over and over and over should get the same benifits as someone who plays everyone class once or more. and no I dont have a completionist and likely never will but if I want one I expect to have to play some classes I dont enjoy much.

[Krago]

So why do the benefits have to end for a single class after 3 lives.....sure make the feats they have now cap after three lives...but I see no reason why after I level my Wizard for the fourth time...why their shouldn't be something their for a fifth time TR. A new line of stackable to three times free past life feats and a new purchasable feat.

Would you be suggesting that you get to pick your PL free feat rather than it being assigned based on the class with the highest lvl?

[Kenpai]

91 Past Life feats = OP. All 36 past lives from FvS, Sorc, Cleric, Wizard, Arti and Druid on a Sorc/FvS means that Sorc/FvS can solo all content blindfolded, underlevelled, unbuffed, ungeared on Elite/Epic.

+6 to hit, +6 damage, +3 crit damage before modifiers, +15 elemental resists (stacking), +25% healing amp, +18 Spell Pen, +260 SP, +5 UMD, +150 HP, +6 saves, +7 on most spell DCs... you'd be a god.

Because this doesnt happen now?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think eLoB or eDQ2 have been solo'd without buffs or heavy potting/torcing below level 18.

No...what I am trying to state is that each class should have more than one tier of 3x stacking past life feats, but they would only be available after the first three are acquired and they would also only be available to people who only TR as one class.

Example......

Play four lives as a Wizard...you now have +6 spell pen and DC's to wands.

Tier two free past life feat: You now gain 20 spell points when you continue to TR as a wizard....this feat is only available to Wizards who have all three of the first tier past life feats unlocked and you must have only played as a Wizard for all previous lives to qualify. This feat can be stacked 3 times.

This basically means to even get this next tier you'd have to of had played 4 Wizard lives and only played a wizard.

That's just a loose example....and it should be something available for all classes to do....with a different feat of course.

Some people are just not interested in playing different classes...dealing with the inventory issues is causes and don't really care about completionist.

Play the game as a class that is fun for you, in content that is fun for you. If you love running level 1-19 quests over and over on a wizard TR, do it. Who cares that you don't gain more power in the process? It's not so different from being an altoholic and advancing to high levels on a totally new character every couple months.

Oh I probably will after lingering around in EPIC land after a while and get sick of dealing with the jaded egomaniacs there

And it will be fun to re-level even if nothing is at the end of it....but still...I don't see why this would be such a hard thing to implement and I think a lot of people would be into it.
