Are you sure it's AI? I have other hobbies outside DDO.

You know what that means? The pressure is now on for smarter posts .. It's a Quori full of big thoughts -- dig deep. ( sorry, some straight-lines are just irresistible 🙄 )

Missed that part, but it's ill-thought. It stomps out the SWF+THF monk uber-power while leaving all the others as nichie fluff. Should instead do lock-in as Doublestrike boost typed identically to Monk's quick-strike buff. Now it's all balanced. I don't think "every other melee" is a good...

True, but if you join the club, you can wear a cute ear-hat. IMHO, the (and their) entire problem with casters is the way caster's strong AE incentivizes players to zoom & boom. They tried red alert. It doesn't much work because it's a hack, not a solution. This particular change makes the...

Lock-in might be OP if they leave Warhammer as a Hand and a Half like Bastard Sword via SWF+THF monk to take advantage of all the new buffs in a single build. "Real" THF builds are unlikely to threaten raid metas. I have 4x raid chars (ranged, melee, tank/melee, tank/caster). The patch will...

All that is true -- according to my TR notes, it's about 90m to blitz through Coin & Kundarak for 2x inventory & bank. I generally skip it when doing TR cycles and run them when intended to stay capped a long time. Even so, I'd still like favor-earned inventory and bank to be sticky like...

I have not tried Mindcleaver, but the exact same ability in Feydark Illusionist does not alter DR bypass. What it does is still pretty cool and critical for some builds: make your weapons immune to item decay AND make metal shields wearable by druids. I suspect some form of "make a problem...

Kobolds are always welcome to hangout in my basement. Give it a try, you'll get hooked.

Acrobat is hard-locked to Qstaff -- they loose dex to-hit/dam on a non-staff, profile, 10 mp, 45 double, and ae trip. Kensei has some that are limited to one of BPS and some that include a full mix (druid & monk weapons). It's a little more flexible if your desired weapon is also a druid or...

If you think that's weird, crack open the SSG Dictionary and look up "immunity".

Making inventory and bank favor rewards "sticky" like the universal tree unlocks for vkf, hw, inq, etc. would be fantastic. Running those every life is a bit of a grind, especially for iconic lives.

There is something about perfect 10s that make's 'em stand out. As far as DPS goes, sounds like something weird. Shaman love fatigue, which will slow you down. Fighting lots of those? LOD has some DR -- did you log onto Lam by mistake?

I think he wants a second date beforehand.

Trash is what terrorizes and kills pugs and it's got DR. If your team can keep a lid on trash and other mechs, you will eventually succeed. Most of our lead strategies revolve around taking care of trash so DPS can safely glue to a boss. If we give specific duties to players, it's for taking...

Lemme expand on this for folks to understand it fully: this is a problem for both sides! It's not simply a matter of being excluded. It's a matter of needing to exclude. Our guild mostly runs lowest-common-denominator style with very slight push when we can. We provide all essential roles so...

I haven't used Pin in ages because other strikes do so much more. The only major downside I see for bow is lack of second lgs, but that's so big that I'll still pass on bow unless the disparity is pretty big. The meta will chase 5%. I need about 20% before I'll swap.

The entire DR change should simply be punted into a different patch while they retool it to include their desired solutions. As-is, all it does is create HUGE balance problems, especially in late heroic & epic for BPS and single-weapon trees. There's so much OTHER balance stuff in U82, much of...

No you don't. A weapon type swap is much worse than a 25% DR hit and many are worse than a 50% DR. No one would willingly self-gimp by 60~70% to get around a 25% penalty. What about trees that are locked to a single type (eg. Acrobat)? You're assuming the entire game is playing nothing but...

Hmm. I could get behind L1 BPS Breaking Quivers dropping in the latest raid. General population would be in an uproar, but being 95% raid focused myself, driving everyone into trying the latest raid would end up with maybe a 5~10% net gain in overall raiding population as some would like it...

I think you missed the part about material DR not being that big a deal. The fuss is over blunt/slash/pierce.
