Rare Encounters with Astral Shard Spending Options

[Keldornn]

The AS choice shouldn't be anywhere.

This is getting ridiculous. I have a business background and don't begrudge Turbine earning a living, but they are utterly ruining any sense of immersion in this game.

This is exactly how I feel.

I have now failed four rolls with a 42 int. Has anyone made a skill or stat roll on these things? I am just wondering if it's so difficult that I am supposed to just pay the shards to make it happen.

I couldn't succeed with a 54 Wisdom. Nine failed rolls.

That sounds like a bug, did you report it?

It is sickening the things fanbois will defend.

DDO staff...why are you nickeling us like this....it really takes away from the game immersion and makes us (me for sure) feel abused and used.

[Segrigo]

Astral Shards have absolutely no place in quests, especially to bypass objectives in quests. This is disgusting...

This should be removed ASAP

They got to make money too and I don't want it there either, but it is and it is going to stay.

Perhaps so. But if that is the case, I would guess that many of the people who joined DDO when it relaunched as "The first fair F2P MMO" will not be staying.

If this is released with the current hodgepodge of bugged content I plan on making a video of me deleting my 15 chars and posting it everywhere. Millions of plat and 4 bank toons. Absolutely SICK of the money grabbing I understand businesses need revenue, I work for a Fortune 500 company. However, greed is running beyond rampant lately in good ol Turbine World. I've a very sad feeling this whole "Expansion" was some Executives "initiative" to increase revenue by bringing in a newer crowd from the failed NWO and other MMOs right now. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I assure you that's not any direction I plan on investing in.
