PB's List of Petty Annoyances

[PsychoBlonde]

Work in progress, will add more as I find them.

1. You can take a level 13 character into Rainbow in the Dark, but they can't use the light scepter, which is ML 14 for some silly reason.
2. There are collectibles nodes in Search and Rescue, but they don't work.
3. Still can't share Memoirs of an Illusonary Larcener, Search and Rescue, or Good Intentions for no comprehensible reasono
4. There should be an elder time foreman in Behind the Door and Moving Pictures so that you can sell off your excess time instead of having to wait it out.
5. Cannith Crafting Satchel from Cannith Challenge rewards gives a ridiculously tiny number of essences, like 3-8
6. DM voiceover doesn't match the text in Monastery of the Scorpion and Let Sleeping Dust Lie. Like, at ALL.

[Saekee]

One cannot run epic challenge quests until level 21
Crafted traps do not actually work on some terrain, like bumpy ground


Link to Deadlock's string error list, crazy long sloppiness

I will think of more...

[Krelar]

Toggling on all the different stances/feats/enhancements every login.

[CThruTheEgo]

The unfinished loot pass. Yes, as long as we have to mouseover each item to see what it actually offers (i.e. bonus effects, slots, etc.), the loot pass is unfinished.

Having to click on the Who tab in order to get the lfm panel to populate.



While these things may be petty, they do reflect the quality and integrity of the product.

Did something similar ..
basically just created a thread to consolidate annoying things I have come across...

[CThruTheEgo]

Not having a complete and fully detailed breakdown of all stats. When I mouseover HP, for example, it should show me the specific feats, items/slots, enhancements, etc. and the values each provides along with the total. It should be this way for all stats, heal amp, saves, fortification, PRR, etc. The game already does this behind the scenes, so there's no reason why we should have to do this ourselves to figure out where everything is coming from.

[PsychoBlonde]

7. Various Mystical X ingredients are still available, but they aren't used for anything now.

[Igrovin]

Oh they aren't? I've been carrying around a bushel of Broccoli to use it on something.

Nothing that I've been able to find uses those at present.

will this change? Who knows. I wouldn't throw it out yet.

Crafted traps do not actually work on some terrain, like bumpy ground

This is pretty annoying, but there is a workaround which I'm 99% sure you already know. Even so, it might be useful to someone else.

If you jump as you start placing the trap, the trap will appear in the air and fall into place even on bumpy ground.

Seems to be quite reliable, and is a useful result of changing how we formerly could set traps in the air and then jump onto them. Pity we can't have both; the trap ladder could take you to some interesting places.

Thanks.

I didn't know! Thanks Blerk!

8. The decks on the larger guild airships are this ugly blue-green color and you can't stain them or ever get rid of it. The guild airship coloration needs to be fixed/more comprehensive.
9. If you leave the game with an LFM up, it doesn't go away. It needs to automatically go away.

[PsychoBlonde]

10. The door to Old Grey Garl says level 6 even though the quest is level 7 in the adventure compendium.

9. The door to Old Grey Garl says level 6 even though the quest is level 7 in the adventure compendium.

Don't forget that the farshifter boat captain in Deneith says that 3BC is CR 5-7 or something like that...Ignoring the epic update

6. DM voiceover doesn't match the text in Monastery of the Scorpion and Let Sleeping Dust Lie. Like, at ALL.

Would you prefer the Hatchery?

The Hatchery

[PsychoBlonde]

11. A gray ooze spawns stuck inside a pipe in Tear of Dakaan near the fire trap.
12. There's an inaccessible mushroom inside the wall in the Fire Caves by the first chest to the right of the entrance.

[C-Dog]

After the end fight of Part 3 of Waterworks, in Boss Jittik's room, the narrations says "You hear heavy footsteps from behind the door..." - but that last hallway to the exit is empty. (Didn't used to be, but has been for a looong time.)

(This would rate something below "petty", except the quest chain is so central to so many starting players' experiences.)

[Bogenbroom]

1) Hireling contracts are, for some reason, bound.
2) The same icon is used for a system alert as for a non-proficiency penalty.
3) You can't dismiss a system alert.
4) Graphics of monsters are different from different logins. Especially with humanoids.

Those are some that come quickly to mind.

[Selvera]

1) When you talk to the captain on a fully upgraded ship; tell him to show you the farshifter list then ask to be dropped in Stormreach; the Hall of Heroes mysteriously disappears from the list.
2) Critical multipliers do not display correctly in the inventory tab, while critical threat ranges do not display correctly when hovering over a weapon. And 19-20 increased multipliers do not display at all.
3) We have a bravery marshal to pause our bravery bonus instead of it automatically pausing whenever it would be broken.
4) Calling hirelings to yourself causes all of their abilities to go on about a 1.5 second cooldown.
5) Hirelings like running to where you are after you tell them to heal you; even if they've been commanded to stand still.
6) Using guild buffs crowds the UI (due to being so many different buffs) so that it's not quick+easy to tell all the buffs that are on you at a given point in time.
7) When you already have an lfm up and are running quests; you get a "would you like to put up a public lfm?" notice whenever a party member enters a quest or slayer zone that you aren't in.
