Nim Notes Thread!

[Valerianus]

i want to say, thank you Nimvind. this thread is gold, a lot of info from different sources put into one post. you are providing an official forum feature that should be default, but in my very humble opinion, from this point of view the official forum is severely lacking. not all are into social media, or have the time to check everything, or just, being this a mmo, we are not all english speakers, casually listening to an official stream to hear the news while doing other things is not an option.

thank you

SSGBranding: Update: We have hit an issue when crediting accounts with additional VIP days. Our team is on it and we’ll be sure to update you on this as soon as we’re able to.

We'd like to apologize for the unplanned downtime that occurred this weekend due to an outage at our data center. Our engineering and IT teams worked diligently throughout the weekend to resolve the issues, and we're pleased to report that the problems have been fixed.

We recognize the significance of this outage, especially over a holiday weekend, and we're truly sorry for any inconvenience it caused. To show our appreciation for your patience and support, we're announcing the following to our players:

• VIP Daily Gold Rolls are extended to April 26th.
• All VIPs will receive 2 additional days of VIP status to compensate for the downtime. (Changes will be happening shortly. We will confirm when they are implemented.)
• To further show our gratitude, we are offering the following from April 5th through April 7th:
  • +25% Heroic and Epic XP Boost.
  • +25% Guild Renown.
  • +10 Treasure Hunter Boost.

We deeply appreciate your understanding and continued support. Thank you for being a part of our community and we’ll see you in game!

- VIP Loyalty Rewards program was announced this week, will start May 1st in the "morning". (Link in twitter section)



- The list will grow over time.



- Sentient XP in the VIP Loyalty Program will be upped significantly.



- VIP bags are one per account. Items will be BTA.



- the trail from the loyalty program may or may not work with wing toggles, they will work with footprints.



- Patch in a couple of weeks to round up some things before going on to U68. Part of this is some work on the sound crashing bug that has been here since Isle of Dread.



- Severlin is coming to the show at some point in the near future, plus another DEVs also want to chat about the making of a quest in U67.

Cordovan: One update: We will be doing away with the requirement that you remain VIP in order to summon/use the trail or mount, once you've acquired it, it's yours.

Cordovan: Sorry, folks, I spoke incorrectly based on not being up to speed on a point of the VIP Loyalty Reward program, and I want to correct that now:

The VIP Loyalty Reward Program does indeed continue on past the 12th reward; the plan is to continue to add to the reward list over time. So, once you've acquired the 12th reward, you will be eligible for the 13th reward the following month.

- Patch U67.2 next week!



-Next week starts the next month of the Year of the Dragon! So pick up the Gift of the Silver Dragon before its up!



- During Curate your xpack: you get to pick one expansion pack for free (except Vecna Unleash and only the ddo store version not market bundles), if you have them all you get 1 Elixir of Discovery.



- Friendly reminder May 1st is the beginning of the new VIP Loyalty Rewards program! Violet Peregrim (spelling errors may occur) in the Hall of Heroes (Eberron)



- To be clear the Loyalty Program is not on a 1-12 month cycle, it will continue to 13th month. It is NOT a Yearly cycle log in reward program but a track, so there will be months 13-24 added. The bonuses shown isn't necessarily going to repeat less they don't have a good idea for a month.



- SSG still has intentions of bringing the Bottle of Mist back in the future, no time given though.



- Also a reminder that the electric trail and the cloud mount in the new VIP Loyalty Program will be yours once claimed even if you lose VIP. Also Cordovan said that these may be previewed in a future Lamannia!



- The second hint of the year was kinda dropped today on a new race and Iconic coming with Myth Drannor.



- They are Analyzing Argonessen sever to see what is causing the increase of lag since last update.
