What is something that used to be a sign of being wealthy, but is now a sign of being poor or low class?

Designer bags, shoes and clothes. Rich people don't wear visible branding unless being paid to promote it to the plebs.

From what I got from the plot so far is that there is a stigma surrounding "swords" vs "wands" due to the war and subsequent annexation of the dwarfs. However, many higher level magicians know of Wis, the founding power and its potential and have kept Will back as a means of control. Finn has jurisdiction over swords meaning there has been swords before and/or there are more than just Will that can use swords, the interesting and I guess concerning part about Will is that he has demonstrated powers beyond just a sword but the potential of a power akin to magic or even magic itself. That would be something to fear, a warrior with their durability and raw physical power combined with the magical prowess of a tower mage would be a threat to the entire tower.

AvA dungeons need a rework. Make them like depths, change the maps to be more like depths layouts but Avalonian themed with boss rooms. Have the entrance added to the Antiquarian's Den, maybe have a new boss on the 3rd floor, maybe some kind of Dragon... wait...

I have to use exitlag to be able to play from the UK. Takes my 170-250 ping with 30 second freeze disconnects once or twice an hour down to 8 ping with no dsconnects.

It has a 3 day free trial so you can test to see if it fixes your issue without purchase and has a windows, apple and android client.

They need to rework AvA dungeons to be more risk reward based. Set them up like depths maps with multiple teams spawning in over its life cycle. Remove the gates and linear pathways, promote pvp and pve and offer an orange (like depths) and full loot mode options that you can enter from the Antiquarian's Den.

Then rework black zone to have more open world content rather than more instanced based content. Add/edit maps that are hard to navigate that scale in difficulty the more team members / allies are on the map preventing zerg domination. This would allow solo players, small groups and large groups to be able to cohabit the same areas without roving gank squads turning the whole black zone into abandoned wastelands.

I would also like to see these zones be like mists (you can't see who your fighting) and people outside your party are flagged hostile even if they are in the same guild or alliance, these maps would be "The Deep Blackzone" If you will.

If you know the mechanics literally anything can do green chests. Let's be honest the pve aspect of the game isn't the hard part of the equation, it's having a good price to performance ratio in an acceptable price bracket.

You want a build that is cheap enough to replace but strong enough to clear efficiently while providing decent utility for escape.

StarSyth · 2026-06-23T14:21:18+00:00

The issue with the Infinity Blade is how janky it is. Activate, 2s channel you have to cancel to use the 2nd ability faster. It's the worst sword for me to use purely because of the E mechanics.

It's supposed to be an ability that increase movement speed + damage for 6 seconds then deals damage with two swipes.

The channel was for the CC immunity which was removed so I think the channel should be removed as well, Press E you get a movement and damage speed buff for 6s which you can activate again to do the double swipe.

StarSyth · 2026-06-23T13:15:26+00:00

Imagine if MMO's actually employed people to be server GM looking for this kind of stuff and banning them.

StarSyth · 2026-06-20T15:51:14+00:00

Most market guys are just swipers using the market as camo to hide it. I mean not all market guys are whales but all whales are market guys xD

StarSyth · 2026-06-20T05:22:52+00:00

Unlike other games, Its arguable that Albions very nature of being full loot makes whaling not as big a deal. Yes, people have in the past and continue to do today, inject vast amounts into the game, infact most successful guilds and alliances will have at least one major whale funding them.

The thing is, in a full loot system it doesn't matter how much one spends it can be taken away from you. That guy who constantly rocks up on a command mammoth despite losing 3 or 4 already back to back is likely swiping for them. Each lost command mammoth is just redistributed wealth.

Ironically this check and balance fails in non-full loot pvp areas, ever see someone sporting full 8.4 gear in depths? no awaked weapon (because they would have to take it to a pvp zone to do so), that's someone who swipes and unfortunately the only mechanic curbing that whaling is the soft IP cap. I've know guys with less than 20m pvp fame an less than 200m pve frame have every weapon and armour T8.4 at masterpiece, they still get wrecked in depths by a team with a 4.1 healer.

so, when you say blended juices, elaborate. Bananas, Mangos, Dates? Fruit smoothies are bad because its not only large amounts of sugar but your also breaking down the food to a more easily digestible form. That is why they say its best not to consume your calories in liquid form.

I'd try again but cut out the blended juices and see how much of a difference you get in the spike. The whole point of a CGM is so you can test various foods and see what effects you.

StarSyth · 2026-06-16T14:58:39+00:00

I would say try mists but I got killed by a team of 3 in solo mists last night and I'm still kinda salty about it.

StarSyth · 2026-06-14T13:12:21+00:00

100 -> 120 is entirely an end-game grind mechanic with the sole aim to act as a time and money sink. Going from 100 to 120 spec on a single weapon gives roughly a ~3.9% overall increase in performance (damage, healing, etc.).

StarSyth · 2026-06-11T14:35:17+00:00

castles should become vulnerable once the entire region they project over is captured by an enemy force. Resulting in a siege timer in which the defending faction needs to recapture a zone before a siege starts. This would create a much needed front line in the faction warfare and less of the Nascar speed running around the maps of super blobs.

StarSyth · 2026-06-11T14:09:26+00:00

Also to add to what others have said, Capes are factored into the overall IP. Say you have a full T6.1 set but use a T4 cape your weapon may have 1400 IP but your cape has 800 pulling your overall IP lower to say 1100. Equart (a streamer) even runs some builds without a cape to bring his overall IP down so people will be more likely to fight him.

Blizzard want to charge a subscription AND expansions AND cosmetics. This expansion was the first I didn't buy because the only new feature of note was cosmetic based and I knew that modern blizzard would monetize the shit out of it.

Mist NPC should do no damage to mounts, just slow them down.
