    Until people start getting some new CoW gear I don't want to touch anything that can really effect class balance.

    This is a code issue and is in their queue.

    Code issue and I can add it to their queue.

    We really don't plan on updating these items because if we change some people will want more and more changed based on various reasons. But this is one main reasons why we went with the gear we did in Cave of Wonders so no one gets left out of piece of armor that they think want because of Class Sets.

    We left out a few effects like levitate and enduring breath from the BBO system because of their binary nature and some people want to click on levitate. There is also a size limit to how much we can do in a buff and some of the classes were at that limit so some stuff had to be removed.

    In the previous buff system there were actually up to 5-10 or so hidden abilities on each of these buffs to bypass this limit while making the stacking rules work and removing them allowed each of the BBO abilities to only has a single buff that did everything. This makes any issue with a BBO buff 100 times easier to fix then all of the old buff bugs like after camping out a certain stat not being reapplied correctly.

    It was group targeted I just forgot to include an AOE range so it would only ever hit 1 target. It will be fixed in the next patch.

    Mentoring is high on codes priority to revamp but it requires almost an entire revamp of the system to make it work properly.
  8. Wigin Developer

    That is actually a code bug related to having hidden quest rewards and it is from the POTA tokens.

    Can you at least fix the re-mentoring while chunking? It makes mentoring excruciatingly annoying at the moment.

    Nobody has actually said whether it's deliberate or not, but if it is then the cure is worse than the disease. It's also pretty damn ineffective since I was still tanking / AEing 10ish mobs at all level ranges from 11 to 48 on my mentored down bard. If I'd been using a tank I'd have pulled everything that didn't leash. This is no different to what I would have done with the stat bug.

    Also, that is not an exaggeration.

    After logging in, the buff from Silius' Enchanted Utility Pouch and the Rindol Field Medal and Shandrel's Focus are not there. The bag in particular is annoying beacause you can't easily re-equip it and at low levels it's the difference between being able to craft harder recipes with ease and them being impossible.

    It seems the only way to fix the buffs without re-equipping is to die. This gets old fast.

    @ Devs, what's the plan on fixing the class-specific bugs since the new DB/BBO system roll out?

    I'm getting kind of sick of having my pet killed. Resummoning and realizing that my Mind of Rage ability is gone, being in combat and not able to reattach it until I'm out of combat. Some kind of stated timeline on how you plan to fix items, adventuring, crafting and diplo bugs would go a long way right now.

    Wigin,

    I also put out another post regarding gear to add clerics to. Would you at least consider adding cleric to these pieces of gear? I personally have no interest in the new COW gear structure (build you own) it just does not work for my and what I like. That said I still like messing around in the game and just looking for clerics to be able to wear heavy armour to give me a reason to keep me engaged in the game.

    Zodafin still crashed most of the raid to desktop a number of times yesterday evening.

    Hey Wigin,
    we actually do NOT trade people much cause one of the traders always get bugged after trade. You can easily see that for example HP dropping. You need to re-equip most stuff, but most will relog to be sure. People tend to mail stuff instead of trading!
    ...and one more: After doing a diplo stances bugging out. Need to change stances to reapply. Can easily test on Monk or dsc as there is no Jin regen after a diplo. I personally relog after pushing civics to be sure i'm NOT bugged!
    ...ok one more :D: Can you please have a look into proc chance? Sometimes its acting strange. On some mobs proc chance for example on Runebladed Imperial Staff is ok, and on some mobs, non specific ones, you can hit target like 10min and wont even get the proc. What i always do is target a different member in grp and retarget myself. That seems sometimes to work. Maybe staff or ability broken or targeting. Is it possible to have "proc-chance" have added as an stat under char-stats? Thx

    REGARDING to FPS hitching from like 3fps - 60fps i made a strange observation. Could be not the chunk then more the char playing!!!
    I was kiting ants with boxed bard and one more Alt in grp. Due to an stupid mistake i died and released. Back at altar in KDQ my fps where hitching like hell. Unplayable! I thought i might be the chunk, so i flew out in direction Ants spot again. Chunked but i was same ****. And i was like: WTF is this crap chunk again.... BUT.... back at ants spot i was standing next to my Bard and my other alt and i was hitching like hell while my bard and other toon WASN'T hitching. Both stable at 59FPS. I relogged my sorc and was stable at 59FPS again!
    Hope this might be helpful...

    Thx

    I'd really like to see the global cooldown removed from the thirst for carnage v ability on the ghalnns helm of bloodlust. It would make it fit much better with all the other burn abilities which don't have it. right now its kind a of a pain having to separate it from the burn macro. Its hard to tell when its actually avaialable from kills.

    URT: Undead Envoy
    -Quest series is marked as level 23
    -First 2 parts happen with level 27 mobs. In first one you can with luck avoid killing mobs, but next part forces you to kill 20-30 level 27 mobs

    See the problem?

    URT: Ambassador's Daughter (last part)
    -Kaon fairies are in stone circle are like Stalin's organ and kill you in seconds at correct level. This is supposed to be solo quest, but last time I had to do it, I finally in frustration brought in level 55 sorc and nuked all level 28 fairies before I managed to continue the quest with my lower level character.

    I no longer get the mail icon when I have mail. I also no longer get the notification when chunking if I have mail.

    I would really appreciate it if you guys fixed Rogue's Smoke Bomb. Considering everything knocks us out of steatlh, it's the only way we can get back into our stance during a fight. Right now it doesn't work at all if you are in combat. The only way for rogues to get back into stealth during a fight currently is to use Escape, which is not what it was meant for.

    Would it be possible to display furious on a 30m range? both the red text on screen and in chat log? i remember this being announced once as being fixed, but it isnt

    I'm going to add to dzirlion's observation on chunk issues with something I saw a few times in the past couple days.

    I was solo grinding in Razad with steady framerate on my bear shaman from 36 to 42, started questing there about 39 or so. The first time the hitching started the UI was reduced to a slide show at 2-3 sec or more before snapshot updates. Got to ground and logged out. Assuming the chunk crashed, I logged another toon (lower level druid, not that it matters I think) for a couple minutes then back to the shaman... all was back to normal.

    Earlier today I was chat partied with a friend in another chunk when he (level 15 DK) started CTD, shortly afterward I was doing the same again on the Shaman. Never was able to stay in game for more than a couple minutes. I logged my paladin (L23) for a few minutes with no issues then back to the shaman in an error free environment again. All my CTDs happened with no warning lag spikes... just stopped the action for a few seconds and the UI poofed like the 'x' button was pushed. Process ended. My DK friend said his were the same and he was up in the Qa Riverbank area, not Razad.

    Not that I'm a code whiz or even familiar with the porting for the UI, but based on these I am thinking there's something there to look for where the UI interfaces with the backend data stream. It appears to be more individual related then specific chunks although the higher tier chunks have more activity to trigger these effects. I'm only guessing. Update server forgetting to tell the environ server who's here or not.

    Anyway, hope this helps and holler if you need more specifics.

    Edit: I only recently started seeing the crashes and serious hitching (not attributable to my connection or system). Up to now I've mainly soloed or chat-partied and kept to low population areas. This Shaman is branching up into the higher population areas now.... but still not seeing these effects [for the most part] on my low level toons.
