Fireball already can't crit because it doesn't actually hit poo poo it just passes through them. I'm sure this will be fixed when they do the nerf. As a fire staff user I'm not a huge fan of the changes they better at the very least offer a free respec.

Okay so it took me awhile to figure out because i'm an idiot but here's an explanation for the War Board Bug. You can only sign up less than 24 hours prior to the start, and the real problem is misleading menus. This one is within 24 hours of starting, so you can sign up as normal. It says Invasion Starts in 23 hours from this post.  This one says Upcoming Invasion but you won't be able to sign up for it. Even though the Upcoming Wars (bottom part of the picture) says it starts in 15 minutes, it hasn't started yet and won't start today. You can't even sign up for it because it won't start within the next 24 hours. Also if you want to fix Chat Lag, which has been the bane of my existence, you can hit enter then switch to global and then back to your feed and that's been fixing it for me.

So finally got around to poking at PTR a little. One bit I noticed that hadn't been mentioned is that herbs are now tracked as a farm plant now. That should make it easier to find clusters for hyssop needs. I decided to try a 50 focus/everything else int with musket/vg and it seemed to work quite well. Still need more poking, but tether is very meh I've found. Active skills is blade, orb, and the one that causes an enemy to heal you every time it is hit. I need to actually hit higher level of mobs, but gameplay seemed pretty solid.

the datamine stuff looks pretty neat, 6 new dungeons and wow-style mythic+ without the timer few people liked anyway desert zone, crafting prestiges, mounts, group finder, 6 more weapons after void gauntlet, winter event, lunar new year event if even half of that happens in the next year that'll be a lot for a game without a sub, more than some AAA b2p games get I have a lotta games to deal with right now but this has been a good time, won an invasion today

What makes this game unenjoyable for me is that the pvp mechanics are such a mess. Instant, uninterruptable healing combined with near infinite potion quaffing means that some builds just can't be killed 1v1 and when that gets extrapolated out even a little, it can often take 3-4 people to bring down a target slowly which just isn't fun gameplay. PvP meta is healers and melee in plate that gives insane damage reduction, and ranged characters with numerous escape mechanisms so almost all the time, the "side" with more bodies wins regardless of any real input provided by players. It's just a big dogpile with numbers and no real gameplay. At least with many other mmos, the pvp was pretty tactical in smaller scale. Here it's just left click and watch your 3 cooldowns.

gently caress Man posted:it's probably why i survived, i am usually trying to hop behind the mob Is there any skill or ability in NW kinda like a classic “rogue” from D&D or even WoW/EQ? Like a “stealth” or separate “sneak” and “hide” where you can (within reason) invis off a path to go pee without having to sign off beforehand? I want to get this game if it lasts a few months and improves on some issues (like many MMOs need) but I’ve always mained rogues even in TT and I do like DPS classes anyway. I am hoping to branch out as an Evasion/Dodge Tank in Ashes of Creation if that comes out someday, but NW’s armor woes are out of whack right now (heavy/light armor bugs).

there are backstab mechanics associated with combat and perks that improve it. you can sort of stealth by going prone, it hides your name from pcs, although i'm not sure it reduces threat radius with npcs. there are a lot of graphical glitches along stone cliffs too, you can hide inside the cliff side in some areas of the game, perfect for going prone if you need to step away.

I am hoping to branch out as an Evasion/Dodge Tank in Ashes of Creation if that comes out someday, but NW’s armor woes are out of whack right now (heavy/light armor bugs). as far as going invis off a path to pee, sort of; go prone (z by default) into some bushes that physically hide you. being prone greatly reduces the range that your nametag will show up to other players for pvp; for pve, just climb up onto something that requires climbing, *then* go prone; mobs (even ranged) will ignore you once you get a feel for how easy this is to do (pretty much anything you can climb up to you can do this with) as far as rogue gameplay in general as a focus on finesse/timing, sort of; if you're melee, you always get a critical if you're in the rear 180 degrees of the target's facing (i.e. you 'backstab' but it's just a guaranteed crit that follows your crit damage stats); if you go dex** and wear medium or light armor with a rapier, spear, or really any melee you can dodge behind targets and whip around to hit them in their rear arc for a backstab; if you get Real Fuckin Scary Good at this, you can dance around people and backstab nonstop, becoming a monster who can slip into a backline and kill a ranged DPS real quick ** dex is for extra dodges which is useful if you're going medium or light and still meleeing but otherwise you can totally play str melee and backstab, just gotta be even better at dodging. also you will die going light armor in brawly melee until/unless you become extremely fuckin good at playing melee light, quite the catch 22 but dex gives you a little more cushion around dodging insofar as letting you keep stamina after two dodges by reducing dodge cost by 10 stam, so you can dodge twice in light and still have stamina which is critical because the #1 Get You Killed thing in NW pvp is running out of stamina; with no stamina, you run slower and you CANNOT dodge at all until your stamina refills COMPLETELY, and because you can't dodge, your movements are much more predictable even when there's massive lag in a big battle; dex also gets a bow which combined with the rapier or spear is like the highest skill ceiling combo that can, played perfectly, slaughter everything else (except a dude with a tower shield, they'll gently caress you up real easy unless you're already a god with backstabbing and even then, dicey cause of shield bash)

ive been playing pretty regularly, but i think im going to stop. I spend so much time sorting inventory and storage between multiple towns and it's just not really fun anymore. you need so many tiers of bullshit to craft anything that i cant get rid of any of it. its just feeling like a slog. Also, now that im 54? 55? i dunno... im basically broke 100% of the time. Its incredibly frustrating. Im probably just playing wrong, i dunno, but its just not fun anymore.

I’m not sure if it was datamined or a rumor but there was mention of daggers in the future and we all know what kind of mechanic that’ll be. I can’t wait because I definitely prefer rogue gameplay. But as for the pee break you can like others said just prone in some bushes. This works with mobs as well. I’ve had animals higher level than me walk within a few feet of me and not agro while I was playing on my phone or something.  Does not work with skull mobs at all.

I hit some of that at the same level and took a week off and came back and ran through the 60 as fast as possible. Once I got there I could dump a lot of old inventory and get rid of things I didn't need post 60 and the game got to be a little more fun again.

I spent most of my time dealing with storage too. With the linking of trading posts, there really isn't any reason to keep storages unlinked. Just link them and people will still need to go to the other zones to increase their storage in each area via zone reputation.

I am still having fun running around chopping up vegetation and hitting mobs with my massive loving hammer of doom. I did my first dungeon the other night and man, there was soooooo much loot dropping that when we left the instance my guy was walking like he shat himself, I am not used to encumbrance. I did John Wayne voices while walking around for a bit then salvaged it all. I think the key to enjoying this game is to not know anything about anything, or what you are doing or why, and then do all that as little as possible, I caught a fish!

LuckyCat posted:This checks out. I have no idea what I’m doing, am leveling slowly because I have little time, and in the mean time logging in to kill some skeleton pirates (which seem to be 90% of the mobs in game) is pretty fun. Seems like a Herculean effort to get logging up. I feel like it takes a hundred trees to level up one skill level. Also, one of my lifestaff abilities used to have splash and would put a small regen on whoever got splashed and that’s gone now so whatevs. I’m probably super gimped and doing a lot of wrong things but it is a video game after all!!! Buying/crafting new tools and bags so you're using the highest level ones you can helps a little with that slog but raising lumber jacking is notoriously time consuming. As opposed to leveling skinning where it seems like if you're just skinning everything you kill you'll max out without really trying.

There's a couple with over a 1k people at peak, but most top out around 350-400. I don't see how this game's PVP is any different from standard AB in wow. There's fewer abilities, but rotations are important and armor perks are how you diversify. It's not the plate that makes people unkillable, it's the fortify.
