New things in Closed Beta that you should read

Summary:

- You can Re-Roll your chests for 50 AS. NO raid loot chests.
- Every piece of named item showed so far has 1 or 2 "Random Effects". They all suck so far.
- They are asking for more Enhancement Feedback when they don't give a shit.
- New Iconics sucks
- Shadar-kai has a Spiked Chain attack that stops you when you use it.
- ToD rings work with the new Enhancements..all but Sorcerers rings.
- We can have up to +10 Stat from items

lolz

Just out of curiosity can you reroll just one time for shards or is this the type of thing where some asshat with deep pockets just re-rolls over and over until the right MacGuffin drops for him?

*spoiler* I'll bet there's string table errors and ladder bugs!

Yeah, more FoS'ed loot... And there's some people that wonder why there's no more end-game.
Between shitty raids ( CitW ) shitty loot from said raids ( see above ) there's about zero reasons to run raids... as anyway the Random Loot will be better... 

At least we know the guilty party for that aspect of the game : FoS.

Right Vargouille don't give a shit, he wants to pour down our throat his bright idea, even if we don't want it.

You can re-roll just once.


I don't agree with Power creep. Maybe for melees. Casters DC is broken anyway.

+10 stat bonuses make no difference with DC casting/tactics feather_of_sun'd.
+1 hit/damage = yawn.

+2 int = more spellpower and a few more Magic Missile casts!

Feather's loot design is 90% the reason for the death of end-game.

It's funny... the named loot (at least the stuff shown so far) is a farce, but the lootgen loot is a million times better than the EE named. I'm going to be replacing at least half the named items on characters with lootgen as it looks right now.

Are the random effects on new pulls of existing named items or only new named items from the new quests?

So  . . . will this "expansion" yet again shrink the end-game?

They didn't forget. They just ran out of time to get it included along with everything else.

Hey, I'm on vacation and unable to logon in game or, for some reason, see the lam forums.

Can someone explain this to me?

Why would going from a +8 to a +10 int item not be increasing my caster's dc's by 1? and is this WAI or commented on by devs at all?

Oh, it will increase the DC by one.  And this might help after a couple energy drains.

If the new named items suck and lootgen is better why have a raid?

It will increase the caster DC by 1, but that won't make any difference with the hyperinflated saving throws of end game EE.

Ouch Sad Does the new XP ransack apply at all when you are XP capped at 28?

Are the XP requirements for TR's changed in this build? If not, double ouch... Certainly you can level a TR2 doing each quest once per diff, but it's not exactly time efficient.
