AND COMMENT #3000!

Grats!

^^ Nice.

Well, this morning, I log in and it seems that "One Shot/NErf the bow" is a new flavour. As well as a few "Sorcs are OP nerf them" threads

Did AA and Hel Ra last night. Managed to complete both, so that was fun, and had a very interesting conversation with a few old timers about the Glass Motif and how to make money from it and the horrendous grind involved to get it....Some interesting thoughts on how to monetize in game.

Grats on the completion, those are always nice the first time

So anything you'd like to share? The grind on that one has me worried, I pride myself on being fully leveled in all crafting and motifs (I have all 487 recipes in the game so far) but damned if I'm buying it. I'm on a fixed income anyway and I'm pretty sure it will be expensive.

Finally successfully finished the Blackheart Haven pledge/undaunted.

Yikes that last battle really depends on who gets ... cursed.

And I thought an Orsimer cook could be fearsome in the kitchen...

So true. For that battle I like to go over the plan with my group beforehand and make sure that we have someone with some secondary heals slotted in case the healer gets skeletonized, and someone with some secondary tanking ability in case the tank gets skeletonized. Then it just comes down to speaking up when you get skeletonized so that everyone knows if they need to temporarily switch roles.

This guy?

So, updates....

Well, I spent a god aweful amount of money last night rekitting my templar. I think it's money well spent after some carefull consideration. I finally bought a 5 piece Ravager v14 set. Line of thought was that yes, Ravager will be v16 in game next week, but the chance of it dropping/being given from rewards of the worthy, and the market in general not having any, the prices are going to be mental. This in turn, will definitly drive up the v14 items that are left in the Traders (in my opinion).

Just need to re-work a couple of pieces and should be seeing upwards of 4k weapon damage all being well

This would still leave me the chance for the new monster set like: Molag Kena

I'll start breakfast somewhere completely random today: Japan

Hi @P3ZZL3

Just wondering about your set gear choice as my main is a Templar stam 2H build. Right now I'm running 5 piece Hunding, 3 Ashen's Grip and 2 rings of Hawk's Eye.

Is Ravager that much better than crafted? I've been spending most of my time rolling alts, and am just now looking at starting more "endgame" and PVP. So I'm genuinely curious.

Thanks

P3ZZL3 · August 2015

Yup. It's the Proc that Ravager gives

Well that will teach me to look stuff up online before my coffee kicks in...how did I manage to not see that!

Looks like I got some shopping to do myself

Thanks 4 the tip.

Love my Templar...I just wish her driver wasn't such a doorknob sometimes

P3ZZL3 · August 2015

@wldkarde *laughing*

Just a heads, up, if you are on PC EU - there are next to no Rings or Chokers around and they are all circa 100k. There are deals to be had on the other items

WldKarde · August 2015

I'm PC NA @P3ZZL3

Looks like once I escape from work (only 6 more hours to go...sigh) I'll be going on a Ravager hunt!

Hopefully the rest of the Popcorn forum crowd left a few for me.

Hurry up clock!

you do know they are changing the ravager set right?

I do. But then I don't use and haven't got Caltrops - so my proc'in has always been based off pure LA/Jabs.

The caltrops change is a sensible one imo and I don;t think it was intended in the first place and the cool down is not the end of the world.

Right now, it's a question of what is better? Yes, there will be options but by all accounts, this set up seems the best.

Although, my one annoyance is that I can not find, for the life of me, v12 Redguard Shoulders on PC EU. So if anyone does have it

@wldkarde - How did your search go m8?

Oh Crap, and here, have some breakfast from Nicaragua

Hircine would B proud!

I was able to find all of the pieces I wanted to get the 5 set bonus, and prices seem about the same on PC NA.

I took my Templar out for a test drive with a guildie last night in Crag and I believe their comment was something like..."What the hell did you do to your character? She's wrecking everything!" Which was true...at least until her driver would decide to be a bonehead.

I can't wait to try out IC next week. I've done very little PVP so far, and I'm sure I'll end up being everyone's favorite pinata, but at least I've got a more viable setup now.

They may take my TV stones, I'm sure they will take my sweet-roll, but at least they will know they were in a fight!

P3ZZL3 · August 2015

Let me know what alliance you are and when you'll be on - I'll be sure to come and kill y... um, I mean help you. Yeah, that's it, I'll come and help you.

Not that I'm any good at PVP anyway...

Ah, that explains much from your signature

Should I be expecting a welcome to the "Someone stole my sweetroll" club soon(tm) to go with your most gracious welcome to the multiple account club from another thread?

Main account is all EP and I would be more than happy to accept your "help" once IC drops next week...

Note to self, remember to put ALL sweetrolls in bank before going near @UrQuan next week

Someone on the forums actually has my sweetroll. I've now forgotten who it is, but every now and then I'll post in a thread and then see a post from him in the same thread... My sig says that someone stole my sweetroll, and his says that he has my sweetroll. I cry a little every time

The worst part is that even with that proof the mods won't do anything to get it back for me! They're all like:

And then they just walk away...

I've been life busy and.. err.. working on a "project". It's tiring. I've been eyeing the forums but haven't said much (I still get notifications when people post here

)

Also noticed the saddning change to the black rose set

@UrQuan I'll be on for trials tonight! (and if any AD NA folks wanna join, we usually run a bit short.. start at 9:30 ET)

Something tells me I'm going to get lots of "help" next week

And in my defense, my second account has a mixture of AD, DC, and EP. See...I'm willing to share my ineptness with all the alliances. Let it never be said that my characters are not willing to die for any cause.

Actually that's not quite true, they actually get very upset at their driver every time I let them die.

If I remember correctly, the only thing they are changing on this set is putting in a 10 second cooldown on the Affect#5.

yes that along with the caltrops change will make it less effective in the new update i think

P3ZZL3 · August 2015

Not "That" bad in terms of the changes. Depends how used to the process without caltrops in the first place. the 10s cooldown shouldn't hurt to much imo.

Wait until next week, I'm sure the rest of the forums will give us PLENTY of entertaining things to talk about here

BTW who's turn is it to order the popcorn for next week? Me thinks we will need lots.

This was regarding Blackheart Haven:

Our group tried that - but this is the "not optimized" group that is much more about characters and roleplay and fun than anything else. Yes we do get our act together - but it's more fun (at least the first time) to crash and burn in character than it is to succeed out of character. Sorta - but it does get old fast.

Anyway the time we succeeded, the battlemage/DPS kept getting it ever time, and every time he just kept tinking away (cause all you have are light attacks) at the boss, and every time he un-cursed, the boss was pissed off at him enough to target him again.

So mostly we lived 'cause the archer was taking out the archers, the healer could keep the tank alive and it worked.

Nothing wrong with that!

Except when that happens

By the way, I made an orc goblin character (well, he's the shortest orc I could make, and he's the goblinest-looking orc I could make, and I've got him in primal gear) I thought you might appreciate. If the servers weren't all wonky right now I'd grab a screenshot for you...
