The (New and Improved) Hey Lynnabel Thread

[DYWYPI]

Yes, I can verify the [Grim and Barett] "Disabled" Trap boxes; weren't shown as "opened" today (Heroic Elite).

Somebody forgot to merge the release branch back to develop or master? They didn't work for me last night. Maybe there is something else going on.

That's weird, because they seemed to be working (for a period) straight after those [U39] fixes to the quest. Perhaps gremlins, since the Secret Door [Spot] warning is still working.

Can you put the quest level at the beginning or end of the quest name? That would be so helpful. Such an easy fix.

Also completely unnecessary. A quick look in the quest compendium tells you what level it is. I'd rather spend two seconds of my time to check a quest level than have a full welek of developer time devoted to this.

Here's an issue with the FvS Wrathful Weapons enhancement--it doesn't work against the undead. That is, the buff is properly granted by vorpal hits, but the on hit light damage doesn't affect any undead that I've tested it on. In mixed groups of undead and non-undead enemies, hits against non-undead enemies properly receive the additional light damage (I did undead-heavy quests immediately after getting the enhancement so at first I though it was just totally broken). This is pretty weird, and I can't imagine it's WAI.

I ran into this as a 1 rogue/12 FvS using a longsword, against undead in both Necropolis 2 and the Night Revels Graveyard.

Spinner of Shadows epic chest only drops tokens on EN. Might also only drop shards on EN, but I wasn't going to bother running EH and EE enough times for an adequate sample size after not even getting token fragments out of them.

A guildie of mine used a mirror of glamering and ended up with a cosmetic cloak that has a minimum level (think it is 13).

Which cloak?

[janave]

Not sure if WAI or not, but Cannith Crafting does not have a recipee for Insightful False life shard, only regular one.

[MasterAO]

Which cloak?

It is the Cloak of Flames from Cannith challenge crafting. It was a level 11 cloak that had master craftsmanship added to it through crafting to make it level 9.

Hey Lynnabel,

If you are looking for a nice and fun challenge,

It's been years that PDK, Gatekeepers, and Twelve top tier favor rewards have been empty/missing. And more recently Keeper of the Feather and Free Agents have their top tier accessible, but missing favor rewards.

Favor rewards are a great way to get people running old quests (more LFMs / more diversity) + can push some newer premium users to buy older packs from DDO store.

Your creativity has already impressed the general ddo community, but if short of ideas, Simple stat boosts (HP/AC/PRR/MRR/.., +1 AP racial points, xtra feat, +1 fate point, xtra saves, etc..) are, in my opinion, good and simple options for top-tier as they may get people running patron quests multiple times (i.e. at each TR Life) and hence more LFM/ diversity.

Should you complete this mission, where no others before have been able to, I will personally go buy some more DDO points from the store to show my gratitude +
your already high favor amongst the ddo player community will be equally increased to the next tier.

Thanks for taking the time to cleanup all these old quirks and bugs out of DDO,

Cheers,

[Captain_Wizbang]

Please convert Muck's Doom to bta

Hey Lynnabel,

Any chance you could fix the collectibles in Search and Rescue? I'd really like to collect those. Thank you so much for all you do!

[guzzlr]

Please convert Muck's Doom to bta

And let Everbright drop again.

And revisit Spell Resistance to make it even kind of relevant again.

And can we get the resist poison spell to last longer than a couple seconds? Sure, potions completely invalidated the need for a spell cast, but really?

Cool, thanks!

This crops up periodically.

Our favorite former intern has indicated this quest is cursed and has resisted all efforts to correct the issue at least once, twice if my memory is correct and probably more than that.

(Fix the treasure bags in all cannith challenges and most of the newer quest if you would. Most cannot be picked up.)

[1cebeast]

I would LOVE to see us get a new emote /slowclap like Marthir in Army of Shadow....

[Hakushi]

There's currently a bug with druids in Winter Wolf form. (I haven't tried the other forms.) Sometimes, it can be after a death, or swomething else but we become untargettable by other players manually, they need to use the F keys or click the names in the party list to target us. The only way to become targettable that I fount is to shapeshift to an elemental and then shapeshift back to wolf form.

In The Tracker's Trap:

(Say): Netherese Mage says, 'Once I bring the Archwizard you head, I won't need to supervise these odiferous monsters any longer.'

Typo underlined.

(Got 'odiferous' right and messed up 'your,' kinda funny, to me at least.)

[Krell]

The missile firing angle for Deep Gnome is still off. Bolts and arrows originate from far above the avatar's head which reduces the effectiveness of IPS. I was hoping with all the animation work that this one would make it in, but I just tested it and no change. Gnome was fixed a while back. I put a ticket in when the race came out.

[Psiandron]

I'm pretty sure this has been pointed out before, but the game has "Styxian" Champions; however, there is no word in the English language "Styxian". The correct word is "Stygian". It means what you want, it's just correct. Not a vital change and maybe a pain to implement, but /shrug.

Also relatively minor and likely not ever going to get changed since it includes an audio segment is in the scene where the characters meet Rungnir in A Break in the Ice, he asks, "What brings you hence"? That's the same as saying what brings you way over there? Rungnir could ask what brings you here or hither, but hence really makes no sense at all.

Later, and thanks for all the work you do.

Yay, finally something I can fix! Fixed for the next update.
