Keep proving that you love me and can't live without my attention, Mookie.  I know that you can and will, because you literally cannot help yourself.

You could prove me wrong at any time, but your pathetic need for my attention will never let you win.

That's fascinating!  Please, tell me more.

And while you are at it, you can take a moment to explain why spending 340 TP, your plan, is better than spending 0 TP, my plan.

That is, if your tiny, tiny brain can figure out the basic economics of the situation.

I got mine +16 int / +7 ins int / +40% fire absorbtion cloak from Tempest Spine 6 months ago. I saw +17 stat items +8 ins stats etc, thats during +2 loot bonus ofc. It is still good to grind TS chest during loot event with good group.

Damn, nigga went bullet points on your ass, Frank; the FUCK you got on THAT shit?!

At least some people here do actually understand humour.

Flipton is Grand; don't take the bait.

First, I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday.  Regardless of whether you are in the US or even celebrate the day.

Second, it is clear that we play the game very differently.  Obviously you play more often than I do.  Which makes your constant harping about my slow collection of remnants, or favor, or anything at all amusing.

• I don't enjoy heroic play, so what you call "fun" I call acquiring HPLs at the expense of raiding, which is what I enjoy the most in this game.  When I'm in heroics on a character I get to cap and TR again as fast as I possibly can, which means I'm repeating the same few high XP quests, and which means I'm not earning a lot of favor.
• I can run 10 alts, all established as I have no free character slots and so your scenario is a poor one, through the training quest in an hours time.  In that same hour I can run maybe 2-3 quests and make maybe 30 Favor.  Not enough for even a 25 TP reward, unless I happen to roll over a 100 waypoint.  So doing this once and setting up my crafter is very worthwhile.  But hey, I don't mind if you're a Turbine whale and would rather pay TP for things you can earn in game for free, it keeps a game I like to play afloat.  Thanks!

When I'm at cap and running ERs I run out of favor targets after the third life, tops.  I'll skip some content on the first run to cap so I can pick up BB and first time XP for it on the second.  But by the third the pickings are slim.  And grinding Slavers doesn't get you any more favor the second+ run.

I won't call you a loser for playing so much just because I have a life outside the game and many other interests, because I obviously play the same game you do.  But I do find your attempts to paint me as a loser for collecting digital rewards slower than you amusing, if childish.  Your Daddy is very, very proud of your digital collection!  Now run along, I have grown up things to do.

Yes, child, yes.  "Either method works."  Words to avoid living by.  Actually finding a girlfriend and getting laid "works," and paying [] or your little brother for butsex also "works."  You bust a nut in either case.  But one is clearly superior to the other.  You might have to grow up a little before you can understand the difference, but Daddy is patient and I'm sure you'll figure out sooner or later that lifting the lid before pissing "works" better.

Digimonk wrote on Nov 23^rd, 2016 at 12:23pm:

Now, child!  What have I told you about trying to grow up?  Using this phrase after I detailed so very clearly in another thread how well I have you trained up is just a case of "No, you're the puppet."  Don't take your material from Trump, you don't know where it's been.

Now, prove my training is still in effect.  I believe in you!

The addition?  Unless things have changed recently dual slotted random loot was only on legacy, pre-New Random Loot items.  I have a small handful, but I never see anything drop with more than a single augment slot these days.  On the plus side you can get green slots, and I only saw yellow or blue on legacy loot.  I don't recall ever seeing an orange slot on old or new.

NewCC is good for what it is.  It has the potential to make some very nice items.  The kick in the nuts is the new mats collection, the lack of flexible shards, the enormous cost to craft for someone else, and the fact that making an item for someone else costs the same gods-awful amount of mats regardless of it being a ML1 or a ML 30 item, give or take some cannith essences.

As time goes on the new mats stockpiles will grow, but the rest of the issues will persist.

Here is the cost for a pair of ML30(34) gloves with ranged alacrity, deadly, and insightful tendon slice:

Unbound cost: Essence cost = 2430, Purified Eberron Dragonshard Fragment cost = 19, Mark of House Cannith = 1, Bruised Spore Pod = 2, Amulet of the Six = 10, Blade of the Dark Six = 30, Mark of the Keeper = 10, Intact Fingerbone = 5, Slime Mold = 30, Stone Fetish = 10, Encoded Communique = 5

The only change at ML10 (first level for the bonus slot):  : Essence cost = 1950, Purified Eberron Dragonshard Fragment cost = 4

Indeed - it is nice to have something to hope for when you look in the chest, even if the hope is faint!  Now if only there was a toggle that would stop 80% of my pulls from being armour or docents!  Even with a blue beam it's still always a waste.

This is true. I wish I'd filled multiple mule accounts with them when I had the chance. I think they'll bring them back in time, they are really great.


Frank wrote on Nov 30^th, 2016 at 11:38pm:


While I agree fully that that this is a kick in the nuts - the new system just mirrors lootgen. There's nothing you can find on a random item that slots differently than what you can make with CC.

Fixed that for you, child.

Digimonk wrote on Dec 1^st, 2016 at 5:49pm:

Fixed that for you also.  Try to be more accurate in the future, child.

I explained it quite clearly.  But I'm happy to repeat myself more carefully to a child with limited comprehension and/or brain injury.

340 TP = 1,360 Favor = Many hours of play time.  If we assume 30 Favor per hour, which means running all new quests in every play session, then that is 45.3 hours of play.
10 characters run through the tutorial = 1 hour of play time

And child, 45 is biggerer than 1.

So you can spend 45.3 hours of time, or you can spend money an be a Turbine whale.  Or, and I know this might blow your tiny little mind, you could spend 1 hour and have all the crafting percent boosts and XP boosts you need to cap your CC skill.  But you'd rather piss before lifting the toilet lid, because you're a dumb little fucker with no common sense, ain'tcha, Mookie?

Do you understand?  Ok, now run along, [] was looking for you.  Bring the lube.
