Nice, but it's August ;)
another huge nerf to gargs :<
Thats not a nerf to Gargs. Maybe thats why your name is trashy newb? :)
and yes August! haha
i must be a trashynewb too, cause that's all I see. What's the rationale behind these jewelry changes? What if I bought an expensive piece of human jewelry yesterday, and all of a sudden I can't wear it? I mean I can take you at your word that you are goign somewhere with these changes. But it be nice to know where this place is. As is I'm sitting on runics waiting for when this wild ride comes to a stop to decide what I'm going to do with them. For example: I thought about getting glasses, but by next patch my gargoyle might not be able to wear them, so I guess I'll just sit on my ingots too.
Fixing Gargoyle jewelry .. Hang tight
yet ur fixing it... clearly im the newb
ouch....... all my legacy jewelry now worthless unless i make a human dexer. i don't think i have one piece of decent garg jewelry.
I have to say. It seems unfair for a human/elf to cast vampire embrace and mount whereas a gargoyle casting vampiric embrace cant fly? Can they evan get on mount?
I think when Gizmo did limit what forms gargoyles can mount he may not have realized that it was allowed for vamp embrace to be used while at mounted speeds. I am sure it will be addressed shortly.
Good update. Will stealth be fixed in the next one?
Could we have a conversion stone which would allow to trade humans parts for gargoyles parts and vice versa, giving an identical part for the opposite race once the object is converted? (Must not be too hard to code, dupe item and change baseid)
thats wht osi does dark and some of pandora competitors
Nice updates :)
1 request or question: the trade in rate from residue is 50 residue to get 1 essence. I understand why the rate is low as residue is easier to unravel than essence but any chance on getting it bumped up a touch? runes needing essence need 10 which converts to 500 residue (not easy to get). what about 50 - 3 or even 50 - 2?
Cheers guys :)
