Fuck. Mabar was probably the highlight of the DDO calendar. The annoying thing is that I see more lag in everyday questing these days than I ever saw in Mabar.

I can't be the only person out there who is fucking sick to death of yet another fucking Crystal Cove or Winter Games/Festivult can I?

Seriously, those fucking cretins at Turbine have had a year to iron out a few of the kinks.

Fucking Cunts. Seriosuly, is the best they can do these days the Festival of the fucking Traveller?


The other events are a joke.
Festival of the Traveller is boring as all shit.  The "incentive" to run it is shit.  The devs couldn't even update a single loot table entry without colossally fucking it up and having to remove the event.

I can't stand Cove.
"Hmmm.. Is that dude I'm about to hit CR8 or CR28..... I guess there's only one way to find out.....holy shit!!! Oh great, 3 more just spawned and aggro'd on me."
And the red names are just stupidly large bags of HP with no useful purpose.  This drivel is just tack on content by creativity depleted devs.
Can't wait for it to be back. Not.

The only thing I moderately enjoyed about it was waiting on the boat and throwing out buffs and Rezzes while I craft levelling gear to get all the "max 1000 stack in bag" collectible shit out of my inventory, and even that gets boring after a bit.  But it was nice to see a bit of community spirit and appreciation in the playing group.

Despite Mabar's flaw (spectral dragon lag), at least Mabar had useful gear for levelling and was fun for certain classes.  It actually got pretty insane when you get a large cluster of high level toons in one area.  Good times.
Now I have maxed Draconic ED, I was looking forward to some energy burst/dragon breath/flyby action.  Ah well.

I really enjoyed the hell out of Mabar, mainly because I met some really great people there, and it pushed me out of my solo mentality & I started running with groups... increased my enjoyment of the game a hundredfold.

Yeah.. the lag-fail for the dragon fight sucked serious donkey balls, but some of the wipes were fucking EPIC!

If they DO bring back items from Mabar, I hope they allow upgrades & let us add slots *crosses fingers & toes*

You' doing The Cove wrong...  Use your L28 cleric, grab a grog, enter Kobold assault ( diff doesn't matter ), spam Implosion, Destruction, Slay Living and Blade Barrier ( or any other spell of mayhem and destruction you want ) and collect.

Rinse repeat a few time... Faster and more efficient than wasting time in the Cove explorer.

You're doing The Cove wrong!

spend some time at your local banker and you're set.
otherwise, just run the Fing event. the first year it was released i enjoyed the slayer area, because of its music and the fighting.

Bleh. And I still didn't get that blasted cape yet. I hope they are going to have it available some other way.
