U42 Preview 2: 4/16-4/18

[Thar]

And Arti, and Paladin, and Druid, and Fighter, and Barbarian, and Cleric . . . I don't think there's a single class where I haven't met SOMEBODY who can just utterly stomp R5 without appearing to notice.

R5/6 is about the cutoff for "I have a solid build and heavy investment in this character", although it depends heavily on the content. "I can solo Lost At Sea" is not even in the same ballpark as "I can solo Temple of Elemental Evil".

I would challenge that there is NOT a paladin using the paladin trees that can stomp R5. I had a guidlie recruit think he was good dps, until he saw what other classes could do. He couldn't keep up.


and yes I have a paladin and he is by far the lowest DPS of all my classes and he has the most pastlives with the exception of my caster.

I run with a pure paladin that actually performs better then most tanks in up to reaper 10.

i am gonna argue with you on this a little. the question is not if a ranger can do r5 and a pally cannot. yes the ranger would do it quicker and easier, but both classes can.

This is - in an abstract - part of our major goals for the current balance of DDO, and reading this actually made me smile irl One of the most disheartening things to hear in an online game is "why did you pick <class/spec/playstyle>??? it sucks" and there have been eras where DDO had a lot of that. I think we're closer now than we have ever been, and I hope very much that our future plans continue to move us in the right direction

Looking at darts, throwing hammers/axes, summoning, fate singer and shadar-kai chain builds.

I can't find any way to make those builds do okay at 30R1+.

I think you forgot people dual wielding holy club of flame and monks in heavy armor fighting with a bouquet of flowers.

[Cantor]

What no loot post? Looked like a lot of changes incoming and I need something to look at while I wait.

[Cocomajobo]

The preview is now open and feedback threads have been posted! Let us know what you think!

[OzmarDDO]

LOL, I have seen many classes soloing R5-6 with no problem.

How do you know which quests I am soloing?

A noob question: First time on Lamannia and can't find the "copy" option. Just "create".
What im doing wrong?

Ps. Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask.

You can copy your character from the launcher, not in game. Follow these steps:

1. Open up the Lamannia Launcher
2. Log in
3. On the "Available Worlds" screen: Click the "Transfer" button
4. Select the world you would like to copy a character from
5. Hit Next
6. Select the character you would like to copy (Can't be a current Guild leader)
7. Hit Next
8. Select "Copy to: Lamannia"
9. Hit Next
10. Hit Confirm
11. Close the launcher for a couple minutes to be sure
12. Open the launcher again
13. Log in
14. Enter Char Select

Your character should now have an exact copy on Lamannia.

Got it.
Tyvm!

One of my accounts transfer list does not include my main toon, only showing (basically) junk bank toons. Any way I can resolve this?

Are you the leader of a Guild? Guild leaders can not be copied.

[Tist]

That one is, yes, thank you!
I can move the leader tag to another

I could have just read the list above properly, too, but I knew how to transfer. Or at least, I knew apart from that bit ;p

[Fallout47]

Transferred a character to Lam, can not access any of the quests. Picked them all up from the NPCs, but just get the message that it is a premium item requiring 99999 DDO points. I bought the 180 minute guest pass, still won't let me enter. I am not a VIP, I'm premium. Any suggestions?

Talk to Poincelot until you have enough points, I was able to purchase it the last time Lamma was up. I think Coco adjusted it so that we would be able to do this without Poincelot getting 'ransacked'.

[Sho-sa]

Will you look into Warlock and Monks, they are overpowered in-game. I see a lot of them solo R5-6 difficulty with no problem.

Translation: Other people are having fun! Please make them stop!

Got him to give me 20k then he wouldn't allow me to add any more. That's when I bought the guest pass, didn't work. So decided to just pass on it. Thank you though.

lol...created april 2019. at least have the guts to ask for a nerf on your real forum account.

I am new player.

I see level 15 warlock with 1500 hp. Not in reaper (no reaper bonus) quest... A bit too much maybe? I can be wrong, just food for thought.
