I don't have the benefit of years of FPS gameplay as a kid.
Don't think I haven't tried mouselook, it doesn't work for me.

Several problems:
1)  Why the hell are you even needing to toggle auto-attack on and off???  It should never be on except to kill the rare portal in Vale Slayer area when you are on a toon that doesn't have good portal DPS and you want to go pee.

Never have auto-attack on.

2)  I'm 48.  I wasn't a kid playing FPS games.   Quake came out in 1996.   I was 27.   Doom and Duke Nuke'em were not true 3d..  there was no mouselook in those... they auto-targeted.   

When Quake came out, you had to use mouselook or you would suck at it.  I bit the bullet and played the single player all the way through using the mouselook option... that was enough to get me used to it.

You essentially have to tell yourself "I'm not afraid of learning something new" and power through it.  It will be better on the other side.

But, your posts on here are enlightening about why you are so bad the game.  Essentially you really like a game that needs good Hand-eye coordination but you don't have any and/or won't try to improve at it.

To quote Clint Eastwood/Dirty Harry:
A man has to know his limitations.

Based on this post you just aren't ever going to be good at DDO on Elite/Reaper.   So, you need to stop spamming the main forums with all your complaints about it.  Casual/Normal/Hard is what was designed for you. 

For the favor you want on elite, you'll just need to wait to get groups.

But Standing Stone can't fix the game to cater to your inherent limitations.

How the fuck do you even fail at servants of the overlord in heroic? and with a warlock at that. Swiped signet at level is harder than this quest.
I did that with a lock solo a few months ago and destroyed my way to the end, i dont think i ever even came close to losing actual hp.

Well my Lvl 25 BF FavSoul/Pally on Argo...Well here, see for yourself....



Look, I don't know how you get to 80 Cha on any toon, my Lock doesn't have Legendary Loot - She's making do with bits and pieces right now and no she's not LE Capable, I'd like to think she's maybe LH capable but she's not LE Capable no and tbh neither am I yet.

The fact is that 56 Cha or any main stat is good for me, My Monk's Wisdom gets maybe that high but 80? That's a pipe dream for me - Maybe if my Lock or my Monk get stars aligned Main stat + insightful main stat item I could get to 70.

Which people who I agree to though - Or am I allowed to wait for multiple people to chime in and give ideas/advice rather than just following the first person's build to the letter?
We all know that any single build may work for one person but will need changes or may not work at all for another.

I may not have the so-called best Feats or be in the so-called best destiny but I'm doing what work best for me - I'd like it to work better and with you guys help I should be able to get it to work better because heck, my gear is terrible.

Please stop trying to tell me to throw the baby out with the bathwater - I may not right now be able to play a S+B Charisma Specced TU/Melee Cleric {though PDK perhaps offers some possibilities once I get the right past lives for that end-build - 3 Wizard, 3 Cleric, 3 Soul etc.} but if that's my end-build dream why not help me try and get there?

But I don't have the same exact outcomes - Over the years I have got better at this game despite what you guys might think!

When BB came into the game I was used to running quests at best 1 level above Elite so 12 for VoN 3 and that was in GROUPS!
Solo I'd be running VoN 3 at Lvl 15/16 or even higher.

I got used to running at BB level both in Groups and Solo.

The Solo part mainly because at that time the general consensus from players was "If you're not IP we don't join ya" so I had to learn to solo {the entire quest because sometimes even if you were IP you didn't get joiners!}.

Now the Devs have made changes that have pushed me back a bit - I will get used to them though.

Going max charisma, when that max is 56 is useless.[/QUOTE

400 what now?

ho st?

In Sentinel? Uh you're mixing up the 2 characters - The level 20 Lock is Tier 3 Magister!

If I was in Sentinel yes I would be in Vigor of Battle and have around 500hps not around 400.

As for the Max Cha thing - That Lvl 30 Lock is not running LEs or most of the time even High Level EEs {Though I did Solo EE Tracker's Trap on her}.
56 Cha does her ok for now but yes I would like it to be higher - It's a gear issue though.

You have 25 prr and 1 mrr at level 25

Auto-Target not Auto-Attack - I'm actually not sure what Auto target does but Auto-Attack there's a Free Feat for.

bob the builder wrote on Feb 14^th, 2017 at 12:28pm:


And how long did it take you to play the single player of Quake all the way through?

Actually scrap that because I'd never get all the way through it anyway.



bob the builder wrote on Feb 14^th, 2017 at 12:28pm:


OK so Twitch or get the fuck out is it?

No wonder Turbine gave up.
No wonder the Devs can't make a Reaper difficulty that challenges those of you who can play this way - IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO CHALLENGE YOU UNDER THE DDO SYSTEMS!

Reaper 10 holds no fears for you guys when Sev stated outright that Reaper 7+ {or was it 6+?} should be impossible right now!

Some of you have even soloed Reaper 10s and no not the likes of Haverdasher or Baudry but PROPER Reaper 10 quests that don't need disabling!


bob the builder wrote on Feb 14^th, 2017 at 12:28pm:


Luckily I don't need to do that for 99% of quests because I can solo them on Elite - Whether it's at level or I wait two or three levels or more before doing so.

You act like I can't complete any EE which is patently wrong - I had trouble with one quest that I mentioned and yes I do have trouble with others too but that doesn't mean I cannot solo them!

There are a lot of players in DDO who aren't even as good as I am -I'm not the worst player in DDO, I'm not even bad though some people like to throw that word around - I'm AVERAGE!

bob the builder wrote on Feb 14^th, 2017 at 12:28pm:


Actually they were getting there - I'd almost got to EE standard on at least a couple of toons, Then they pulled the rug out from under me AGAIN!

Now I pushed for you guys to get a Challenging  difficulty, I pushed for it to be a REAL Challenge too not the pointless grind it's become!
I was wrong....Because I didn't realise that there's literally no way for the Devs to challenge you guys in DDO anymore, You're so far beyond the system that they just can't do it.

Give it 6 months and many of you will have the bulk of the new Reaper Trees and new Reaper Loot and any new Legendary Gear that comes out and you'll be crying again for more Challenge.

It's people like me the Devs should be catering too because they can never please you lot, at least not for long.

I really didn't want this thread to devolve into a casual vs elite argument but you brought it up not me, you chose to insult me rather than actually helping.


I'm not trying to become Uber at this game, I know I'll never be soloing End-Game content on the highest difficulty!
I'm very glad that there are now 10 difficulties that don't give any extra favour because that means I don't NEED to be able to solo the highest difficulty content, I don't NEED to even be able to group for it - Yes I'd like to be able to but I know that's unlikely to happen so long as we're talking about whatever is the current at that point in time highest difficulty....
Epic Chains of Flame was once THE quest to prove yourself on, now even on EE it's not that bad, it's no longer the top content in the game.

I don't recall any complaints that Epic was too easy pre MotU - MotU changed everything!
How exactly is that because players can twitch?
Or is it that even if you were twitching Epic pre MotU wasn't easy but all the buffs that came with MotU outpaced what the Devs could do with difficulty based on the DDO systems?

Ya gettin' trolled, son; hard as a rock.

I have a build for you.

Post in Builds. Listen to everyone who posts builds there regularly. Especially when they agree.

Frank wrote on Feb 14^th, 2017 at 7:22pm:


And you have yet again conflated two completely different characters!

My CC Level is on Cannith - The Cannith Character in this thread is Lvl 30 not 21!

When talking about crafting I was talking about doing so for the Lvl 30 character on Cannith or in fact not doing so because I can only craft to Lvl 21 on Cannith which is no good for a lvl 30 character.

The Lvl 21 Character is in fact on Argo as is the Lvl 25 Character.

On Argo my CC level is ZERO!

I cannot craft a thing on Argo!
