    Oesric: Strict Role-Playing Server?

    This is why Neverwinter Nights has servers for role playing. It was made with that in mind. DDO isn't really ideal for this let alone enforcing it on 1 of 3 or 4 servers. A guild could do it if they wanted to though.

    Cant they make the current servers 64 bit?

    If it were as simple as a hardware upgrade to the existing servers, they would have done that. It's typically better to move on to more current technology than to upgrade obsolete computers.

    New expansion editions

    Hirelings aggressive stance is still broken. Rare loot table still exists. They still won't discount Isle of Dread, and you can only upgrade expansions at full price even if they're on sale. They gave people who have supported buying the expansions a crappy potion instead of something as...

    This is not ok

    Yet here we are on page 7 of one of many threads discussing how unethical and exploitative the loot and AS system is. Isn't this the very thing we're discussing over and over? Any good dictionary will tell you that's one of the definitions of predatory.

    This is not ok

    The only winning move is to quit playing predatory gambling games like DDO.

    What do you most like about Ravenloft?

    Yeah, that's my understanding. The source material was adapted in the case of Mists of Ravenloft. I compared Death House, and it was pretty much the same as the pen-and-paper quest except where the made some small cuts. So the writing wasn't really them AFAIK. That seems to be why the writing...

    What do you most like about Ravenloft?

    MD's loot system is the antithesis of Mists of Ravenloft. Ravenloft has possibly the most generous loot system in the game and stayed relevant a long time. One thing I loved about Ravenloft was the entire art direction. In particular, the music fits the mood perfectly, and the loot has tons of...

    The Math On Rare Loot Is Counterproductive For The Game

    The worst part it is all intentional and it won't change. They don't care about the player's experience. They want people to gamble. They'd make EA proud.

    What is your least favourite epic wilderness area?

    Yeah, it breaks immersion. If I'm ranged I shouldn't have to walk right up to an enemy.

    Returning after 9 years. What do i do?

    This. Don't get me wrong. DDO has gameplay and design I really wish I could replicate in another game. But with what they keep doing to key paid content, they aren't respecting your time or dollar. There's a ton of great games out there. Play them. I un-installed DDO earlier this year, and am...

    About Vip, seriously....

    Yeah, silver rolls are far too stingy to make logging in for them worthwhile. And it's farcical to pretend it's even a d100 roll when WAY more than 20% of the time you get lowest and second lowest tier rewards. When you do get a higher roll it is typically sun flasks and other useless things...

    About Vip, seriously....

    They already have ton of stuff you can pay for and get immediately. It's a subscription. Subscriptions are given out over time. I don't think you should need to talk to an NPC to get anything related to VIP. It's a huge part of the reason it is a terrible system. You should just get loyalty...

    Playable Kobolds?

    You kinda can if you use a Sentient Jewel of the Kobold in The Immortal Sun Flask.

    FPS BUILD Request

    Someone should make a D&D Boomer Shooter. There is a Warhammer 40k one.

    For the love of god, put some plat sinks in the game.

    I watch for named augments and pet certificates in addition to rare filigrees.

    Someone on Cormyr has my name... and it kinda sucks

    Calling this theft is tantamount to calling somebody named Steve a thief because that's your IRL name. Unless someone is purposefully pretending to be you, this is not an ethical or legal problem. That said, I'm not downplaying how frustrating it can be. That's very real and more frustrating to...

    Someone on Cormyr has my name... and it kinda sucks

    I've always just added a little more to the name. So for example, if it were Drachmor, I'd try Drachmore, Draechmor, Drachmoor, etc., until one finally worked.

    Due to changes un the game's systems, you need to perform a lesser reincarnation

    Aren't the hearts BTC when they're given for game changes? My guess would be they were programmed to be auto-given when a character logged in within a certain time frame, and they didn't log in until that time ended.

    Due to changes un the game's systems, you need to perform a lesser reincarnation

    I made a mistake on my character because I accidentally had the wrong trainer in my focus orb (I was using a controller, not mouse and keyboard). I needed to reincarnate to fix it. Customer service was really cool about it and gave me a heart. In this case it isn't even your fault like it kinda...
