So, that is Tolero. No wonder why she is such a cunt on the forums; she looks like the love child of Rosanne Barr and Justin Bieber.

Did he actually say that the augment would be random until applied?  I may have missed that.  If not, why couldn't it become a tradeable commodity.  Or better yet, a craftable one?

He's focused over and over again on random systems, with a new set of pages from ye olde thesaurus every update. What on earth leads you to believe he'd do any different given more time to damage the remaining balance to the systems in place?

Hey, don't get me wrong, if you've got some info that would suggest he's gotten his head out of his ass and actually started truly designing loot, by all means, share with the penis gallery.

The augments sound exactly like slotting gems in WoW gear, so I don't get why people think it's this big bad thing.

Finally, I don't see what the big deal is with FoS.  I'd love to see videos of all the posters here answering the same questions, so we can get a more objective measure of douchiness.  And just to do some level setting here, a dirty t-shirt with a lame slogan is not a better fashion statement than a hipster hat.

You're right she probably wouldn't! I'm not going to lie I look like Uncle Fester had a love child with Rhea Perlman. Who knew that making a jest about someones looks was completely unacceptable with you?

I really dont understand the big beef with the random loot? I love it, I like all the new loot, sure if you are a monk the hand wraps suck, but the other new stuff is great. I like the potion of wonders changes, i hope they dont stack in all as one because as it stands right now I am stacking them up in their groupings f what they do, and they all seem to be beneficial. before they were just something you left in the chest with stacks components and throwing weapons. Now they are worth picking up.

edit: and by random loot i dont mean the old way dragon touched runes worked that was tedious and infuriating at the same time.

There is very little in the public record of this guy's performance to incline me to agree with you about "Fixing Augmentation".

The old epic augment system worked reliably.  They will now fiddle with something that worked reliably.  I expect the same things to happen again.

"I'm pretty sure I nailed it, but I won't check my work on Live, and when it doesn't work properly on Live, I won't add this to the Known Issues List and we won't be correcting or reverting it any time soon."


I would Give Thanks if FoS would save the snotty comments until he establishes a string of "got it right the first time" events.


Also - Rubbing yourself in a video where you discuss a video game is unpleasant.  Doesn't matter if it's your face or elsewhere.

Also Also - I think Tolero looks fine.

Pretty simple, really:

Bumping the power-level and frequency (you did catch that this stuff was now dropping out of random pots as well, right?) of what will end up being general trash-loot within 3-6 months, while maintaining the same level of power and of grind as before on anything named pretty much guarantees folks skip more and more content as pointless, since even if they haven't got the stuff yet, why bother if the next pack around is just going to invalidate it anyway.

Throw on that a large part of one of the prevailing  payment options in DDO is treating it as an overarching game system with various packs as individual products, and they're cutting their own throats.

I think she looks fine and FOS look fine.  And they dress and interact like Boston-based geeks.  I have programmer friends in Boston and they are just of a piece with that type.  I could see them having a work lunch over Sushi in Kendall Square.

Hmmm, gianthold armor....   Maybe with augments?   I am glad I farmed some scales.

of my 4 main toons gear each has atleast one if not more an integral piece that is randomly generated loot. All of my mains are geared for optimal play on Epic Elite. I like finding useful loot in breakables or at the very least something worth picking up and selling. Other than a few items that are universally valuable (eSoS) not everyone has to have the exact same gear load out to be optimal any more... No more "must haz claw set, esos, mari-chain, 3 piece abashai. ravager set, ring of stalker or teh gimp"
