I had heard rumors that they were intending to leave it out and try to pretend it was fixed, and sadly it turns out the rumors appear to be true.

As you all can see there is no Crit multiplier bug fix for the Ninja masters, pretty raw deal for 20th level monks if I do say so myself.

Severlin said it would be fixed (in a pretty condescending manner FYI) here is the link:

Although not my natural forum I'm posting updates here as well just in case as I've been warned that about half a dozen well meaning forumites have made it their business to get my account banned the main forums. They have come after me fairly hard on the forums, but much much more aggressively via PMs and such.

It's been brought to my attention posting screenshots of PMs may be seen as a Code of Conduct violation and get you banned when Cordovan sees them here while he's reading these forums trying to learn how to replace the Thieve's Tools on his one hotbar with a shortcut to a Cure Moderate Wounds wand.

So, if you'd like to perpetuate the drama (and there's lots of people who would appreciate it if you did, because drama), consider using a different handle than what you use on the other forums and replacing your username in the screenshots with something less identifying.

"The Reaper's Helm now displays properly on warforged and Bladeforged."

That's cool but what about the Executioner's Helmet? I wasted a mirror on that only to find out it doesn't show at all on any warforged or Bladeforged... Good thing I didn't spend 10k rems on the golden one.

As much as I agree that it's retarded that they included a bugged ability in a capstone without fully fixing it, I just gotta say:

You are way too fucking invested in this shit. You've been crusading on the mobo for a good while, creating threads and spamming completely unrelated threads, about this bug. Holy shit just get a hobby or something.

That's an interesting post son. I'm sorry if I inadvertently hurt your feelings somehow in game or on the main forums.  It's funny because I don't think of myself as a baddass. Most of us baddasses try not to, it's a baddass thing. Being able to play with my family and stay engaged with my grandkids is one of my greatest joys, I'll let the family know you were asking about them. God bless.

For anyone interested, the crit multiplier buffs for thrown weapons is still bugged as of today. But the Developers are making some headway, it's starting to apply to initial 1 or 2 hits sporadically after the various buff abilities are toggled on and off or you recall. So, some progress.

No it's not. Thousands and thousands of or crit confirmation runs prove that. But don't feel bad, it takes some understanding of basic UI tracking, proper use of the combat log, and control conditions to test properly. On the plus side anyone who is so ignorant to have found the answer they want after one or two criticals is just the type to be satisfied with crit multiplier buffs that exist in name only. Ignorance is bliss, even willful ignorance.

Hey I'm sorry if that came across wrong, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings I was just trying to point out what was at the root of your flawed conclusions, it wasn't meant to be personal. Honestly I think it's great that your satisfied with how it plays currently, I wish I could be as well. 

I understand that you think you know how to test for a crit  bug properly, but the fact that you don't think one exists is rock solid evidence that you don't know how. I mean just the way you said "I saw several WAI crits in a row" is a flag that you don't understand, because if the bug was fixed you would see the crits properly buff on every crit not just "several".  Also, "several WAI crits"?  anyone who understands the game and how to test properly knows that you need to observe many more crits than just "several" to test out the mechanics properly. That kind of super small sample size...? well it only works for people who want to see a specific answer rather than what is really  happening in the game live. I would suggest that you try not to sweat it too much, a bunch of us who understand how to test properly are testing it daily and we will make sure the Devs sort it out. 

But if you would like to learn how to test sometime you just need to send me your server and I can arrange one of our partners to get in contact with you and invite you to come along the next time we have a novice night for training on your server. It's great fun, and really informative.

"You had a different conclusion than me, so obviously you did it wrong."

Go suck a chode. If this was a professional statistical test you'd be laughed out of your field.

I killed several EH mobs with a non-ranged spec character using a ML4 weapon. That takes a lot of hits when you're doing 15 damage a pop. Thus far, I have never seen a crit with a thrown weapon with a x2 multiplier. It has never happened.

Maybe you should post your fucking build and weapon so we can tell if it's something more complex than the ability just simply not working. Because so far as I can tell, literally only you are claiming the ability is still bugged. It's probably something like crit multiplier doesn't work when you also have a certain feat or some shit, but instead of admitting that it could be something more complicated, you double down on the senility and accuse me, and several other people, of not knowing how to look at fucking numbers.

Because that's usually the type of discussions that happen on the intrawebz.

Lotta players are arrogant.

You seem like your actively trying to be offended here son, take a deep breath alright?

Sgtgig wrote on Oct 30^th, 2016 at 11:41pm:


Oh my, this indicates even worse testing practice or comprehension than the "several" post you made earlier.
I mean where do you even start when dealing with someone who is this angry and uninformed at the same time? 

The good news Sgt, is that we will get it fixed and hold the devs accountable, so just enjoy what your playing and leave it to us old hands to sort out. God bless.

Asheras wrote on Oct 31^st, 2016 at 10:01am:



Found a bug? that's pretty rich son, everyone found the crit bug it's been on the Known issues list for two years now so I hardly found it. No, I didn't find the bug I merely am willing to do what I can to make sure it and other bugs are fixed by forcing the developers to stop ignoring the Known Issues list items.  It has been easy for us to document as well, which we have shared around including with the devs during the past few weeks. I'm sorry you're not on the list but my son who is on the PC with you doesn't think much of your integrity or tactics so it seemed wiser to leave you out. No offense meant. God bless.

Asheras wrote on Oct 31^st, 2016 at 10:49pm:



Boy oh boy you really do hate when others have some success with the devs don't you?  Oh well. And you shouldn't fib, you don't know who my boy is because he has told me he has been very careful with what he has said in the PC considering the types of people on it. Tell me is this tactic of trying to pretend you know who we are and who are toons are some sad attempt at intimidation Ash? has it actually ever worked with anyone?  Or you could prove me wrong and post our names and server right here son, I'm happy to check back.
