Cetus is losing it. Again.

https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/483489-We-have-to-re-craft-our-slavers...

Quote:
I can't fathom a situation where someone would be a proponent of this. After spending all of that time acquiring the 5 piece set bonuses, now the blanks drop with a reaper buff on it. This means that we have to recraft these items from scratch if we want to take advantage of this.

I am offended at the total disregard for the time and planning we have done to acquire these set bonuses, to then just release upgraded blanks rather than some "reaper statuettes" - which is the way it a reaper bonus should have been introduced.


Quote:
Can we have a developer chime in here with their reasoning for this atrocious turn of events?

This series of quests literally dominated recent history in our hunt for enough mats to make this set bonus. Moreover, the extreme rarity with which busts drop makes re-crafting already-assembled gear akin to putting a sharp stick in your eye.

I am appalled at how the devs can have this much disregard for the commitment of their players. This reaper bonus should drop as another "bust" that we can use to further augment already created gear.

I don't think this is unreasonable to ask for.


Quote:
You're perceiving text on a screen as something it is not. I'm perfectly calm. However, it is absolutely a spit in the face to make us grind this much to then expect us to redo the whole thing for the marginal benefit reaper gives.

I literally JUST completed my sorcerer's 5 piece set, and now I pull blanks with 3 reaper bonus on it...this is ret*rded.


I am in agreement that there should be more flexibility in Slavers crafting.  Slavers crafting should be as flexible as LGS.  Let you extract the augments or replace them.  But between this and the Bladeforged change thread, the guy is just losing his marbles.  It's pathetic.  It's a video game, ffs.

I thought we all knew that old loot gets invalidated after one update and there is a new best each time? 
You needed slavers gear. Now you need reaper slavers gear. Next update youll need super fucking awesome-o 1000 reaper slavers gear.

Thats just how it goes. So shut the fuck up and give them your money for the pleasure of running on a hamster wheel chasing a digital carrot.

Yep ..... it seems they're invalidating shit way quicker and it's not on Cetus getting fucked off. Some of it even seems like childish and spiteful changes but hey, maybe I'm just that jaded.

Thank goodness I never fell into the Slaver's 5-piece trap.

I'd've been pissed too.

Maybe Cetus was surprised; maybe he wasn't. The quote is from the MoBo, so it has to be translated from the native Fucktardian. Who here speaks Fucktardian fluently enough to translate?

This.  And really, what we're talking about here (what Cetus is ranting about here) is a possible +15 Power (Melee Power, Ranged Power, Spell Power) or PRR, or MRR, or a blend of the three.  Across a 5 item set.

Stop the presses, all prior items are now just pure garbage!
  

No, let me be Frank.

And if they had NOT let those effects drop on slavers items they would still have been called out for being pieces of shit. This time for NOT having it on them.

i called them shit. and youre correct. i would have called them shit no matter what they did this update. they didnt suddenly become shit. they have steadily been shit for many a update. it didnt happen across u34 and one good update would not have suddenly turned shit into gold.

how bow dah

LOL he's so stupid. In the thread, he said he had just crafted a 5 piece set for his sorc, and then he pulled a blank with reaper bonus. He obviously crafted the set after U34 was released, that means he knew the blanks could drop a reaper bonus. Hell, we knew this since dezember.

He did a stupidity because he couldn't wait to pull the blanks that he knew could drop with the bonus, now he's crying and want others to fix his stupidity for him.

That said I think there should be a way to unslot the augments.

What trap? I have a couple different sets on hand, like a golfer with his set of clubs. Very handy stuff.

Idk and i mostly dont agree that its a big deal,  to me personally leg gsteel is bshit,
For slavers, i step in zerg it and then waste 20-30 minutes to move 5 boxes and loot.
For a 5 set im done in less then 4 days of farm and could do it in 2 if i really wanted to burn myself out.
For leg gsteel bshit i dont think il have a 5 set done before ravenloft because the drop rate of those cleans bshits is terrible and cannot be passed in chest.

Why the rage for a simple to farm out system?
I agree that it would be ok to replace augments or at least override, but to say gsteel bshit is better then this?
Nothing beside weaponry in gsteel is relatively good or can be remotely considerd good imho.

I dont even have slots free for gsteel on most builds because bonuses are bshit and only useful for tanks. /although the conceal might be a thing now
