What gets me is the explanation given on one of the streams as to why exp.tumble was getting axed boils down to 'we don't like the way it looks when people are tumbling so much' with the speed boost almost as an after thought. 'It looks weird, so no' being a primary driving factor for devs...

Leaving a problem in game and increasing the cost to experience it in an attempt to discourage people from buying it / complaining about it so they don't have to fix anything (with the off chance of a chunk of cash going their way to boot) is the most SSG thing I've ever heard.

Playerbase pre66: We tumble around a bunch because we like to move quickly and experience more of the game, and we feel like the run speed is too slow. Maybe base speed could get increased? Devs: *takes that personally* Patch66: Not only can you not tumble as much as you like anymore, but now...

As of this past Monday when we last played, he had neither his character nor any update about it. The character in question is a first life toon, so no cache, but he did use the bank space quite a lot. But again, it's all still awol. We'll have to see.

Maybe adding it as a favor weapon with the weapon training similar to how dwarves and woodelves do?

Ran into the "connection to patch server" problem, and after messing around with things for a good while, the -disablepatch thing worked first try. Thank you so much for the help and easy-to-follow pictures!

I've long wanted to see a Deep Dwarf iconic along side the Deep Gnome. Assuming they wouldn't want to iconics of the same class AND being a ftp class, we only have Sorcerer, Druid, and Warlock left. I could see a Duergar Warlock or Druid iconic being really cool. An Underdark patron specific to...

I dug up this account on the forums that I haven't used in YEARS just to add my voice to folks saying the lockout is terrible. In general lockouts suck, but I can understand putting them in legendary raids before the end. I don't agree with it, but if the loot is supposed to be that powerful...

A friend of mine crashed mid-dungeon, and when he tried reloading he was told his password was incorrect. After a few attempts to make sure he wasn't fat fingering something or caps lock was on or some such, he clicked "forgot password?" to reset it. And he never got the email. Checked spam...
