    The thirst is real.

    More cosmetic/text bugs:

    Feed on Magic temp spell points uses a debuff icon instead of a buff icon.

    Hungry for Destruction and Hungry For Destruction enhancements (soul eater): Surely we can think of a better name then just capitalizing the f?

    (Legendary) Hardened Hide Armor is still granting an exceptional bonus to HAMP instead of Quality despite the item description

    Hey,

    Is it in your wheelhouse to do some volume leveling or boosting on the DM voice in the Dreaming Dark chain? Especially in the finale, the DM voice is both muted and muffled. There are other quests that could use this sort of help, but DD is probably the most noticeable one.

I even raged and hung around waiting for it to time out, and no penalties. And the combat log immediately says "(Combat): Your fatigued effect has been removed from you."

    The lag would be so severe that even opening the barter window would probably file your taxes incorrectly.

    Could the recipes for the Stone of Change be moved to the Cannith Crafting machines instead or would that create more lag due to lots of recipes again?

    I'm just curious... would the lag be due to all of the "fix/upgrade this item" recipes, rather than the "crunch these shards" and "add this alchemical bonus" recipes that people actually use? If so, would it be possible to move all of *those* to a different interface ("The Stone of Repairing", perhaps, placed near the entrance to the Crafting Hall in House C) and have a barter window for the stuff that people actually use on a regular basis, without the crippling lag? Basically, move everything that's not on http://ddowiki.com/page/Stone_of_Change_-_Recipes elsewhere - that's 21 recipes, and even if you added several recipes for crunching multiple dragonshards, you could easily stay under 3 dozen.

    There are potential ways we could make certain aspects of the Stone of Change more conveniently accessible/usable, some of which are mentioned in this thread. We don't have current plans to implement those at this time (and definitely can't before Ravenloft), but they're something we may consider in the future.

    For the record, there are just shy of 1,100 recipes in the Stone of Change.
    We don't only build for the builds that exist.
    We don't only build for the builds that are good right now.

    The fact that some changes are necessary is not diminished by the fact that other necessary changes have not happened yet.

    how many of those recipes are long dead..

    there was a bunch of stone of change upgrades for the old augment system (the one that used catalysts) to change items to a newer old augment system

    and fix upgrades to old gear/weapons..

    but I guess if someone came back from a 6 year afk and wanted to upgrade their eSOS to the new augment version and could figure out how to do it from an old wiki link after talking to an ingame GM to find out that there was a stone of change fix that may or may not work to change their old item....

    At the risk of obviously armchair quarterbacking this, any properly maintained database should be able to run a query to select/pull/parse 1100 records very quickly. Select Top 1000 Rows is even one of the default right-click options on a table in SQL.

    Shouldn't be a problem unless you've done some very, very bad things with the database. Databases were designed to parse large amounts of static information very quickly.

    Our recipes aren't kept in a traditional database. Splitting up the stone of change would be cool, but as we've said, it's way outside our scope for right now. We've gotta focus on making U36 and Ravenloft as great as they can be

    Based on your and Steel's response I don't think anyone is asking for you to touch the stone of change anymore. Instead give us a new vendor that can intelligently convert stacks of khyber and sib shards, 1000 will get you 100 of the next level OR 10 of the level two up OR 1 of the level 3 up. 100 will get you ... etc. Those should be much more straight-forward recipes and would even heavily reduce people using the stone of change for grinding those two family types of shards.

    But yes... back to U36/Ravenloft. And Flavored Souls. And Clerks. And Arti-chokes (new animation!).

    I approve of what you did there! Just can't gie the rep to you for now. Womp, womp.
