Looks like Standing Stone is doing away with this endless barrage of shit sales, which means HOPEFULLY they will finally do the OCCASIONAL event with actual sales and limited release items

I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

The most broken epic PL in the game is the ridiculous AC buff from martial PLs. But when you include all the inherent benefits from reincarnation, the thing is above the roof. The benefit from TR was supposed to be minimal, but now it is game breaking. start a new character and you will feel, you will get raped in heroics.

Personally I think lower heroics on new characters are harder than Legendary Elite content on a character with good gear and has all destinies farmed.

Wow.

Have you EVER gone to Law School Feyn? Have you EVER been asked by a United States Senator who is now the Vice President of the United States to write a paper just for him on a particular topic of Constitutional Law for his use as a Senator? Have you ever been asked to help a very notable Harvard PhD turned Constitutional scholar with his very-well received book on Legal Philosophy and Constitutional Revolutions? Have you ever been offered a job as a Deputy Attorney General BEFORE you even graduated Law School?

No? Then STFU you fucking amateur.

hearts can be duped, boxes can be duped, mats can be duped, pretty much everything other than aventure packs can be duped and sold, so... do the rest of the math.

If you come to the conclusion like: "that is precisely why adv packs should be on sale" you are terrible at logic

If you realize that dupers can sell stuff for real life ddo points/AS and, as such for $$, you will understand the logic of turbine preferring selling stuff they can make more money of.  Tongue

If you realize that dupers can sell stuff for real life ddo points/AS and, as such for $$, you will understand the logic of turbine preferring selling stuff they can make more money of.  Tongue

So if I am understanding you, your thesis is that since anything which is an item in the game can be duplicated, that selling things which are not items is the sole way that Turbine Standing Stone Games can make money?  Because all items can and will be duplicated, and so selling them is a losing strategy?

I'm not entirely disbelieving you, it's just that I've never managed to cash in on any of the duplication fests, and so I have to believe that there are at least some other players who, like me, have never been disincentivesed against running content because they could just duplicate the items which that content rewarded.

What disincentiveses players such as myself who don't dupe items is the power creep inherent in the game.  When Thunder-Forged is no longer valid end-game gear then we either need to turn to the new Slaver's grind in order to try to keep up or we need to find some other game.

This is fairly understandable in any MMO.  The new hotness is always going to rule the roost.  Players either accept the new grind or they move on.
  

No, let me be Frank.

Opposite of that. People buy shards and point codes to buy dupped items with. He's saying the duppers act like distributors.

If you dont believe a sale represents an increase in cash flow from whatever you are selling, then you fail at life.

If you believe that at the end of the day theyll make more money from adventure packs by not putting them on sale, you should probably off yourself before your defective genes make it into future generations.

Here I was making a post which was more or less wishful thinking, and it seems to have devolved into name calling and general nonsense. All of you go sit in a corner and think about how you've been behaving, and don't come out till I tell you it's ok!

Id say yes, its quite nice to have hp status of enemies if you play percantage based builds
(ranger shots, kensei shots etc).
To see hp of enemies gives you somewhat a benefit + you get freebies on the way

They add a little xp some remnants some shards and give you monster hp which , as mentioned is sometimes strategic but always fun to see. I like the manuals.

You might be waiting a while.  They usually put packs and expansions on sale near the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.

This year they claim to be releasing a new expansion so they will probably offer up some kind of perk for pre-ordering it, but if history is any judge it won't be a pre-order sale price.  Just some cosmetics and maybe a permanent hireling like the panther and owlbears.
