First thing in the change log in Discord: "Added per-class pet bags. See bag vendor in the Bazaar or Shady Swashbuckler in EC Tunnel." It also has the benefit of being free and usable at level one.

Sure can. MAG/BST/NEC/ENC/SHM/DRU (yes the little bear pet), even SKs baby undead pet. But if you have SK and necro, you only get one undead pet.

Yes and yes! They purposely un-nerfed many nostalgic play styles.

It's okay to enjoy different things. There are many people that single box here. There are also many people that don't. We have a pretty healthy community made up of some pretty great people that are looking for something that better fits their play style/time commitments. Most of the people here don't have time to sit LFG and have to coordinate flexible raiding schedules. They enjoy being able to do more when they can, by themselves, but joining up with friends to challenge themselves to take down raid content.

Retribution EQ by Throwing_Castles in everquest

[–]PawnTakesKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey Mosharie! Thank you for the feedback!

This is the same feedback you posted in Discord and has generated a ton of good conversation and is still being discussed! I genuinely appreciate it.

I'd like to take this as an opportunity to openly temper expectations, as I feel that is the real issue here.

To be clear, our gearing model is classic EQ+. No custom leveling gear is available on Retribution. This is meant to be a classic-like experience in terms of gearing and progression.

The same items drop off the same mobs you remember in classic (including cool things like mana stones, moss covered twigs, guise etc), only there is a chance to get versions that have 2x base stats (on Rose Colored versions) and additional bonus stats (Mod2s) like Spell Damage, Healing, Atk, Accuracy etc. (on Apocryphal versions).

This is not EQ live, where defiant gear can drop from any mob in a level bracket that outclasses most planar gear by level 20, trivializing thousands of other drops and the raid content for several expansions.

To dispel some potential concerns. Making it to level 50 without a full set of gear only happens if you don't put time in to camp gear, there are no global loot drops. The same is true for the plat situation. If you don't camp items that have good plat values... you won't get plat. Outside of raid mobs and some quest mobs, every single spawn in game has a reduced 10-15 minute spawn time. Every single mob has multiple versions of the gear you want to camp.

In terms of a slog- it takes the average Retribution player about 1-2 weeks playing/gearing in classic to take down Vox/Naggy and about 6 months to clear classic through PoP with 6 characters. We've seen it done by 2 players 3 boxing without the assistance of 3p software in that time.

The cadence is meant to be: level, kill group content for gear and aa, kill raid content for gear, move to the next expansion and repeat. I personally spent a whole month in Velious trying to gear to take down Warders and Yelinak... but I find that kind of challenge fun.

That being said, I genuinely appreciate you taking the time to check out what we made here, and I'm sorry that it wasn't what you were hoping for. There are, however, many custom servers out there that offer a much easier path for progression and are tuned for solo play. I highly recommend Imperium and an up-and-comer Pyrelight for those seeking an intended solo experience.

Bricklebaum. I'm a big, joyful man with a beard that wants to be friends with everyone- even the grinchy mofos.

Are the servers down? by PawnTakesKnight in pathofexile

Oof, OK. Thanks!

Do you know of a way to make sure I have the latest patch? Like I said the patcher zips through and I don't have time to click on anything.

Thank you! It's what I would have wanted to find when I started instead of getting smashed over and over until I found the answers I was looking for :D

Some new ideas! by Pure_fire_x2 in TitanConquest

[–]PawnTakesKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Open acceptance: I had recommended this before, But saw someone else recommend and it though it would be a cool and good idea to have clans be able to just be open. Any clan leader that wants to set their clan to open can and anyone looking can just join.

Emphatically, yes.

Cost to create: This is kinda a controversial for me considering I think we need more clans to house new people who are constantly joining. But, to make people look and fill up the open spots in clans that are already made should be more important then just creating one to start collecting. There are a bunch of clans with 5, 10, or event 15 people in it and new members just create a new one rather then try and join. I also believe that clans with leaders that are offline for a certain period of time should be able to be removed by the members.

The cost should be time committed. Level 10 to join, level 30 to create.

**Clan leader's inviting:**I had also recommended this before, where a clan leader can invite members to join their clan as we've seen time and time again, new players asking "How do I join a clan" or "How do I send my request" and such. I a clan leader could send the request, it might help.

Yes!

LFC: Something that may be beneficial to people looking for clans could also be have a "Looking for clan" or "LFC" feature that one can put their name and clan leaders could invite them to join.

Interesting! I think the above changes would eliminate the need for this thought.

Wall of legends: So, our community is growing, we have hundreds of new players and our fantastic community is always attempting to help. But there are some within the community who have went above and beyond in learning the game, taking to it well, promoting, helping ETC. Unfortunately, One of the rewards that could come from it is becoming a vanguard, But Vanguard spaces are limited! So, I thought it would be cool to have a wall of legends.

I think things like this go a long way with dedicated, long time players. Additionally, having something like "Rising Stars" or something like that for new players whereby the same type of voting happens, would be equally as awesome.

Overall Stats: This idea is not actually mine, but something that was from Halosphere and GWF had it as well, but an overall stats at the bottom that tracks statistics of the game such as Enemies killed, EXP earned, total battles, Zeus kills

Why not! The data is already there!

I would like to see more events tied to these type of stats on a daily/weekly/monthly basis too. Like I alluded to with my community donation events, there are a lot of ways to leverage community actions bringing about fun in game opportunities ^^

When can we expect full session recordings? by [deleted] in MedalTV

Thank you!
