Character Planner Version 2.00 - Now with Equipment!

[Craggath]

Maybe if Ron add Barbarian Tastiness enhancemament (Barbarian levamel 1, progressimion 0, cost 1ap, enables purchamase of tasty ham from tavern) developamers would be more likelamally put it in actuamal game. Hmmm....

Why restrict it to barbarian? Other classes pine for Tasty Hams too! It should be a universal feat that is granted to every level 1 character, like Attack.

Or they could just put Tasty Hams back in game....

I was messing around with this earlier.

With a level 1 human character (fighter) I was picking some feats.

I'm able to pick up Point Blank Shot but not Precise Shot for my Human Bonus (or any)

The only requirement for Precise Shot is PBS, sort of an odd bug.

[Killbilly]

Was just playing around with the new planner a bit, and I noticed that the following named armors have no descriptions listed.

Nullcloth Gown
Disc of Lesser Acid Resistance (never heard of this, is it a mistake?)
Docent of Acid
Dinks' Wraps
Wight Hide (may be an error since there is an armor called Wighthide Armor right underneath it.

Also, just a thought, but you might want to add in a later version what the base armor type is. On some of the armors it's listed in the description, but in a lot of them, it isn't.

Hmmm, I cant reproduce this. It seems to work just fine here. Can you confirm? And if so, give me step by step directions on what you did?

That's becuase I haven't been able to find them Every description in the planner comes from one of three sources, screenshots listed in the static reward list, the database over at gamebanshee, or from me standing at the Auction House hunting through the listings and typing them in manually If they aren't in any of those three places, then I don't have descriptions for them. All of these are listed in the static rewards list here on the forums, but they seem to be incredibly rare BuckGB (the maintainer of the DDO equipment database (www.gamebanshee.com/dndonline/equipment.php)), Cataclysm (keeper of the Definitive Static Rewards and Unique Chest Loot (www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php?t=69886)) and I have been hunting for these for a while. It's possible they don't drop anymore.

[Sanadil]

Not really a bug found, but when you save your character, it adds a space between the end of their name and the .txt if there is no last name entered in for them.

One other suggestion, and I'm not sure how you'd do it, but its hard to tell what levels you took which enhancments on. If you want to go back and remove an enhancment to get something different down the line, currently I have to print off the whole thing to see what I took when, then I can remove it.

A print preview screen would be great too, or something like it, so you can see an overall like you do when its printed, without having to actually print it. The print out is just layed out in such a way that its much easier to read then whats in front of you with the planner itself.

This is a great tool ron, keep it coming.

Aw man, pretty sure I pulled a Wight Hide last night and sold it.

I really should write down all the items with no pictures from Cataclysm's thread and screenshot when I find one.

[Tanka]

OK, weird bug.

I'm making a WF Paladin with 32 points (don't ask me why, I'm crazy like that).

At level 4, he has the following:

Str: 17
Dex: 12
Con: 12
Int: 8
Wis: 12
Cha: 15

Adamantine Body
WF: Slashing

Paladin Attack Boost 1
Paladin Bulwark of Good 1
Paladin Resistance of Good 1
Paladin Devotion 1
Paladin Charisma 1
Warforged Combat Training 1
Warforged Construct Thinking 1
Warforged Healer's Friend 1

His saves are:
Fort: 10 (I can see that)
Ref: 186
Will: 20 (Maybe, but I doubt it)

Houston, we have a problem.

Ed: I went into the Forum Export to see if it went over there, and apparently his Reflex is 1,867,522,162.

Ed #2: OK, found it. When taking the Paladin Resistance of Good, it bumps it to the crazy numbers.

[Ron]

Wow, nice reflex save

Hehe, okay, I'll take a look at it. Probably something to do with the new enhancement system.

[Tanka]

I'll try to do it again with a non-WF, or with a WF without the Construct Thinking Enhancement line.

[Tanka]

Yup, it's just the Resistance of Good lineup. Took it with a Human and got the same thing.

[TreknaQudane]

Ok, it turns out that its only when you have a ranger level you cannot chose precise shot earlier than 11 even if you meet the prereqs.

[Ron]

Yup, it's just the Resistance of Good lineup. Took it with a Human and got the same thing.

Okay, thanks Tanka, I just found the bug and fixed it. Any enhancement that affects more than one save type will cause that problem. You'll see the fix in the next release.

Trenka: Ah, I gotcha. Yeah, that's a long standing issue. Any feat you get automatically with any of your races or classes the planner will not allow you to select early. So because Rangers get Precise Shot automatically at level 11, you cannot take it at level 1 through 10.

Of course, DDO WILL allow you to take those feats if you wish, before you would get them automatically. It's a discrepancy I've known about since version 1.0, but it's never REALLY been an issue, since the vast majority of feats you get automatically you get at level 1. However, there are a few that cause this problem. I'll see if I can make some changes in the code to let you take these feats early.

[Tanka]

Awesome, thanks for being so quick.

[Craggath]

Hate to break it to you Ron, but Warforged still have two warforged resistances feats. Forget to save when you made the change?

[Grenfell]

Hmm...

I can't seem to select Fighter Attack Boost II as a lvl 4 Dwarf fighter with 10 progression and enough AP's....

[Thuban]

How come the Drow in your program can't have a 32 point build?

[Blind_Skwerl]

Technically, with the bonuses, drow are already a 32 point build. Also, when you get the 1750 favor and get to make a 32 pointer, drow isn't an option for it.

Ah. I didn't realize that you were only copying the info from screenies rather than the descriptions listed. I don't have any screenies, but I can tell you from experience that the Docent of Acid and Dinks' Leather Wraps are described accurately. I was the one who initially posted the info on the wraps to Cataclysm's guide, and I've seen a couple of the docents in the AH. If I ever come across either of these again, I'll be sure to snap a screenie.

[Tanka]

How come the Drow in your program can't have a 32 point build?

As Blind said, Drow are not an option for a 32-point build in-game.

[Ron]

Sonofa..., how the hell did that get back in there? I KNOW I deleted it. Weird. Okay, I'll delete it again.

Thanks Gren, you are right. There's an error in the text file with the REQUIRES field. Just fixed it.

How come the Drow in your program can't have a 32 point build?

Because Drow are not allowed to have 32 point builds in the game either By Design.
