Helf with monk dilly could break 70 and actually not suck that much.  Would be far from optimal but better than teh typical pugger who hits your LFM.

Umm, maybe you're missing the point. First off monks are still somewhat new, and HElfs are very new. Second, I did it as a joke cause it was just there. Third, If I wanted to I could make up something that could go well into the triple digits. so now a days 70 for an AC build is MEH at best.

Yeah, that is one funny thread.

It's like they said, "Hey guys lets ask in general chat in the harbor what is a good build and write down what people say in this new guide!"

Truly pitiful attempt and honestly a travesty that someone with such a low level of game knowledge is allowed to post for Turbine in such a manner.

Wonder if he was the one to do the write up on the turbine paths you could choose when creating a new toon. Those were pretty craptastic as well.

Might as well get some WoW or Rift players to write DDO guides. Or have me write a WoW guide. It's not even remotely imaginable!


I play Rift as my off-game.

There are newbs in Rift that could write a better guide to DDO than this mess.

Rift is also my off-game. Haven't played in a few weeks, and I only got to lvl 20, so I would never try to write a guide for Rift with as little knowledge as I have. And I certainly wouldn't hope to get paid for it.

Rift is easy. I got a tank to 30-ish. Such an easy game.

Also, the forums there are BS. Just a bunch of crying really with no good build data.

Oh wait, ours is that way too...nvrmnd >.>

Maybe they created that thread to have the dissidents and malcontents infract themselves out of the forum. Turbine-sanctioned trolling in othe words. Have an "official" write a clueless guide about something crunchy, wait for people to blow their gaskets and then start dealing out the red cards. Operation Clean-up?

I would just like to say, thank you for making it clear as to why this game is degrading to such a useless state. Your obvious understanding of it and ability to what I can only assume is to purposefully mislead new people so they *HAVE* to buy a reincarnation heart to fix their wonderfully useless build is amazing. I can only imagine how much you will mess up the caster and specialist guides. Melee is perhaps the easiest thing out there. EASIEST. So how did you screw it up so much?


This is what I posted.  Wonder if it will stay?

Iirc

"feats:
...
Writing newbie help guide
Prerequisite: knowledge of the game, how it works, and how it doesn't
Benefit: you are able to write guides that are insightful, useful, and helpful

Can we get this feat added please?"

Even someone ELSE's quoting of it was deleted. No points though.

No way. You are not allowed to say that any Turbine employee has made a mediocre, or bad, job, even with softeners such as "as I see it" etc. 

In one half-elf thread I wrote that the problems with helfs is not that the males look feminine, or had wrong proportions, but that the artist that painted those faces just hadn't done as good a job as the other face model painters had. I gave examples from the webpage of the Australian artist who made many of DDO's great monster textures. That post got deleted in like 2 minutes.

Tarrant posted a response to a guide similar to this one.  I'd love to post Tarrant's little gem to that thread.  All I did was change the name.

Hi FordyTwo, welcome to DDO!

As others have expressed here, DDO is a complex game. DDO has one of the most intricate character customization systems out there, and as a result it's very difficult (and incorrect) to pigeonhole classes into a particular role. If you look around the forums, and in particular the build section, you'll find many builds that would not be possible in another game, and go against some of the traditional ideas of what a class can and can't do.

I also recommend you read over Tihocan's Builds for new players post. Tichocan does a very good job explaining why he made some of the choices he did, and you can definitely learn a lot from this experienced player.

We appreciate your desire to contribute to the community by making guides like this, and encourage you to make more. Before you do so, it may be in your best interest though to get a little more experience playing the game to truly understand just how deep DDO is.

http://forums.ddo.com/showthread.php?p=2864022#post2864022

I hate it when I think of a witty comeback way to late to use it.

EDIT: Screw it, I'm going to post it anyway.

from a GM's My.ddo page:


Still loving my AC Pally! He has a ways to go, but at level 16 his "standing" AC is 53, which isn't too bad.

i wasn't really trying to call him out. Just that a 53 standing AC at lvl 16 is considerably low. Unless he's running GH, which is highly possible.


If he said a 53 with twf and not a shield, I'd be okay with that.

Demiknight ran with a shitty as until he got defender 3, then he was able to get between a 71-76 with two khopesh. (still not good enough by todays standard though Sad )

I was thinking Tarrant got renamed to Fordy-Two. They had about the same amount of DDO experience.  Roll Eyes

Heh I'm beginning to see Rift build guides about as useful as that. But the real Rift build guides aren't the guides, they're the soul tree builders on the web, where you can look at all the talents and decide for yourself which souls go well together. At least in Rift you can respec your entire build for plat alone.
