Yes, but everyone already buys those.  So no need to advertise include them in her guide.

Typically no.  When I see her name as the OP of a thread, I know it will be a complete waste of oxygen to sit and breathe while trying to comprehend what she is saying.  Kind of the same way when I see something posted by you pony loving fuckers!


I'm not completely sure but I kinda think you might not like me.

I don't think it's a case of stupidity as much as it's a case of not investing dozens of hours every week into perfecting the art of playing the game.  And who can blame her?  Tongue 

I also thought the "Stronger Spec'd" line was more about the idea of multiple TRs and builds built by people with more experience with their class than she had, but I could be wrong.

DDO store hirelings are invaluable for soloing… Quests that you don’t want to do on elite and you don’t want to disrupt your bravery streak.

I read it as “Having guildies carry me through quests.”  Sometimes a guildies value is in their personality rather then their playstyle.

Oh, Tolero - 20 point jump potions? Really? Really?

henchies and res cakes, fine. My major beef with her adventure list is 3BC given it's fucking useless.

I have no recall of the thing in the middle so clearly it was neither positive or negative

I don't think she's saying melee are weak as much as that she's a weak player.

The rest of the "5 essential items for soloing in DDO" pretty much cement that.


K wait a minute who said tolero is a she???

Wow, you love me. There has been two big lag fixes in the past week. No, those are not going out with a hotfix. They are more wide ranging and take more time to test.
Of course every time you get like this, I keep wondering where your MMO is so I can play it. Obviously you know excatly how to piece one of these together. I can't keep apologizing a gazillion times for the back end tech and things people did on this game before I was even an employee. So one last time, yes some of the stuff from the before times sucks. Sorry about that. Yes we know, stop building new systems. Yes we know, finish the ones out there. Yes we know you hate bards.

And screw you for bringing up the laid off folks. That sucks every time. I made sure all my people landed in other jobs real quick. None of my 'casualties' are unemployed, just sadly not employed by Turbine. Every business goes through this.Even Valve has layoffs. It sucks every time. If you haven't had to do it then you just don't know. Picking people and knowing you are about to turn their life upside down is terrible, every time.
Not giving a bleep. No, I stop listening when the bile starts. Not worth my sanity. You know my rule, treat me like a human and I'll do the same back. When the rage train starts...cya.
So here is my peace out of the vault for a while. Thanks for the list Ranger, that was actually clear and helpful.

Tolero is a She. She also used to be a big DDO fangirl, and had videos and stuff.

From what I understand she wasn't very good, but very prominent.

Turbine tends to hire their biggest fangirls/fanboys. You can see how well that generally works out.

The fangirls/fanguys get hired to moderate the forums, and be the Turbine presence at conventions*. That is how Cordovan and Tolero got their jobs.

The content is made by the Developers, who incubate at Turbine, then apparently leave the nest to spread their wings...

* at PAX Prime 2011, there were no forum mods present, so that may have changed due to WB degree.

C´mon, people, that was like this:

"Tolero, write some shit, it is your turn" "What, do I have to?" "Yes, you have to".
Then she wrote the shit and that was it.
I write shit everyday for my customers. Then I go home and drink a beer and say "fuck you all, fucking fuck customers".

Tolero is forum mod or community person or something. Not a dev. But that's too difficult. All those yellow names Turbine staff at the forums are devs, just yell at them and they will make a better game, I'm sure.

Edit: I fucked up and quoted the wrong post but I'm too lazy to fix it.

I think the fact that she included 3-barrel as "Essential" for solo indicates that she is aware of and utilizes the Fire Caves experience "exploit". Which must mean it is not an exploit after all  Smiley

  I'm a fairly relaxed and easy going player who likes to chase butterflies more than beat down monsters, so the idea of having to play quests - without having stronger spec'd friends in party to lean on - was kind of scary.


I took that to mean "without a bunch of big strong men to help poor little ol' me."

That list would make a lot more sense if one got all one's TP for free...  True, I have bought the odd gold seal or spirit cake, but certainly not every time I solo without my menfolk.
  

Tarrant can suck my boobies.  On second thought, they are far too soft and supple for the likes of him.  Tarrant, you can GFY while having hopeless pathetic dreams of my boobies.
