I miss hardcore

[hornet123]

Why did you leave me?

 

[Hobgoblin]

maybe you were too..... hardcore for it?

 

[Coffey]

I miss it too.

 

[Vox]

I really hope HCX will be over the top challenging with appropriately awesome rewards

 

[ChaoticDrivel]

Same here.

Hardcore is some of the most fun I've had in DDO. And getting to play with people from all servers- and play in a way that hearkens back to what group play was like in DDO, once upon a time- makes for a very enjoyable time.

I really hope they bring it back sooner than planned- even if it's a combo redux of previous seasons.

I enjoy it as well, it's a fun diversion from the TR train and allows me to play builds I wanna try out instead of builds I have to make fit my TR puzzle. I don't know if that make any sense to anybody but me, but I always feel like I'm wasting time, effort and/or resources that is not spent on my main character. Hardcore allows me to just play the game without any agenda but to stay alive... And if I can stay alive, I get a fully fleshed out bank mule. I need moar Hardcore in my life - make it so.

I miss it too and still don't understand why they couldn't just slip a mimic redux season into this year.
I get they don't want HC X to be a redux, but they could've just skipped the roman numerals and named it HC 9.5.

 

[Mindos]

I predict june 18th 2025 for hardcore return!

 

[Coffey]

Why was HCL postponed? I cant remember any good reason.

Ah ok i think it was about some new event later this year they are working on. So they dont have the time to make a "special" 10th HCL season until next year.

I stopped by the forums today to see if there was any news on an upcoming HC season. I'll just let this comment speak for itself.

If you want Hardcore, roll a new toon n play Reaper. Simple.

On a side note: do HC transfers suffer from same MM bs?

 

[GrayJedi AntiProPaladin]

bcuz every month this year for Year of the Dragon they're releasing something, so there's a lot of work going into it, and fixing bugs presumably, so no time to do HC

yah HC transfers suffer the same MM issues unfortunately which is caused by transfer any server-world to another

 

[dur]

making more bugs is more likely.

Glad I only xfer'd HC toons then ..wow.. n it's a lot of shards *(non-HC) too.... maybe they'll fix that?

 

[GrayJedi AntiProPaladin]

the MM fix is a long-term project, apparently

as for Astral shards... prolly Not...they remind you to spend it all before HC season ends

 

[dur]

Uh.. the MM has been.. since whatever wiki says it's been a thing. So they gonna percentage it like they did weapon weighting (WW) after they BROKE IT?

n no, character transfers cost DDO Points sry for bad word choice. HC transfers are free for VIP (?only).. now I know why.

 

[GrayJedi AntiProPaladin]

but they expressly call out that Astral Shards won't transfer here https://www.ddo.com/guides/ddo-transfer-guide so it's unlikely they'll ever "fix" it bcuz it's working as intended (the way they intended...whether we agree it's good or Not...)

 

[dur]

it's cuz AS are part of their bread n butter.
