more than a 50% decrease in DPS: heard it here first!  best player in my anus just quit the game (Todd), and more are following.

Proposed Change to Manyshot: from 4 arrows per shot to a formula that distributes EITHER 2 or 3 for an average of 2.41

Dev Calculations.

Now:
MS = 20 sec * 4 arrows/sec = 80
10k = 60 sec * 2.75 arrows/sec = 165
Nothing = 25 sec * 1 arrow/sec + 15 sec * 1.29 arrows/sec = 44
Total 289

Proposed (using Tensors for full bab, which is annoying so kindly change that to char level):
MS = 20 * 2.41 = 48
10k = 60 * 1.89 = 113
Nothing = 40 * 1.29 = 52
Total 213

you nigger faggots have no idea how bad this is for ranged builds.  if they implement this gay, jew, cuckolding, the adrenaline charged slayer arrows, whose damage gets applied to 4 arrows on every burst when manyshoting, will now only get applied to 2.41 arrows: that's an immediate DPS decrease of 44%.  If they nerf slayer arrow on top of this (they already said they would), that's going to tip the scales to well over a 50% drop in DPS (assuming they take only 6% damage off of slaying arrows, which they won't; it'll be more than that) and represent the single biggest nerfing, not just in ddo, but in video game history! 

no one, in any game, ever, has taken so many quality builds and just chucked them in the trash heap in a hearbeat.  this is the most authoritarian, heavy handed, "we just don't like that some people are uber" approach to video game management that I have ever seen: it reeks of incompetence (or they wouldn't be forced into a series of such drastic changes, endless patches, multiple hotfixes, etc.) and a lack of long-term planning (they literally have their heads completely up their asses.)  the funny thing is, those mathmetically illiterate assholes think they're dropping ranged DPS by "only 26.3%" because they have absolutely no command of basic arithmetic.  we're not talking equations here, were talking basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.  the developers are obviously products of a public education system that has failed to teach even minimal competence in math, and now ddo players are paying the price.

this "balancing" act is full of aids and fail; i really with the devs would drink bleach instead of fucking with the game evey 5 mins. "just because."

Hi KNN, did you know that I can prove that you are lying or if you are telling the truth (no chance) in just five easy steps?

As long as you willing take part, I have made all the needed  arrangements with Strake to conduct that 5 step test in a way that will not only guarantee your privacy and anonymity. But also sort things out once and for all, I made the arrangements just in case you tried to come back.

So what if even with Strake's guarantee you still refuse to take part in this process?.... well then everyone here will finally have 100% proof that you are a delusional fantasist. 

But if you do take part and are proven to be telling the truth it is safe to say that you will pretty much own the Vault, no joke it will be all yours because I know for one that if you are telling the truth (near impossible) I will be choneing immediately, as will many friends.

Let me be very clear, as of right now those are your only two choices, your only two. You willingly take part in a very simple process or by trying to avoid the truth you will be outed as a joke for the umpteenth time and laughed out of the Vault by your own hand. 

To be fair I'm going to give you a several hours to decide, I will check back later, tomorrow morning. 

In the meantime I'm going to ignore ALL AND ANY POSTURING that you will no doubt engage in right after I post this, none of it matters to me, I only am interested in seeing this settled once and for all, you and your racist ignorance tire and bore me.

To that end I will ignore all your characteristic nonsense until I post a brand new thread in this forum tomorrow  morning. In that thread I will ask you for your decision,  giving you the opportunity to publicly either agree or refuse to take part in the simple 5 step test. I won't be entertaining any stories, excuses, abuse, I will only be looking for a yes or no answer.

Additionally you can PM me if you have any questions, and let me know your intentions or concerns you may have. But come the time I post that thread asking for your answer it will all be on you.

-Agree and we will be able to complete the 5 easy steps by the end of the day all while maintaining your anonymity.

-Or, refuse and every single person here on the vault will know that you are a liar terrified of being exposed. And I would guess that you will be given a rather nasty and embarrassing Vault title and Icon.

Play time is over KNN, it's time to put up or be a joke forever.


Thank you for your time.
