Natch Potes?

ApoAlaia

The announcement said that there would be natch potes after the maintenance.

Maintenance is complete according to the banner.

They may not appear until after the scheduled end of maintenance, which isn't for another 25 minutes from now.

I'm just worried they weren't able to fix anything and aren't sure how to break the news to us....

It wasn't a patch maintenance, they said there would be an explanation afterwards, but haven't seen it yet

If there were no fixes done, then there would be no need to post notes afterward.

Since Gina said some "short notes" will follow the unscheduled maintenance, and I'm reeeeally going out on a limb here, I'm gonna say they probably implemented a fix for at least something. A server-side patch is still a patch.

i hope they took off the gates from leyawiin and eliminated the load screen.

Just curious what merited taking the servers offline on a Saturday but not mentioning on the maintenance announcement.

I figure it was to stop the companion gear from duplicating extras in your bags, those who had purple pieces could get double when switching between characters.

I had no idea that it could happen.

For me the gear disappeared rather than duplicate.

Having 2 purple rings rather than 0 purple rings would have been a nice touch.

I'm hoping to see in the notes that they fixed the block draining stamina bug that is plaguing both PvP and PvE, or the bug affecting many of the 5 pieces sets (they suddenly stop working for no apparent reason). These are gamebreaking bugs.

Edit: I probably shouldn't explain how its done in case they didn't fix it.

But yeah, yours is far worse. I don't think they even have it where you get compensated for any companion gear that disappears, its gone forever.

Instructions unclear. You now have -2 purple rings.



Jokes aside, I am a little curious to know if inventory adjustments are on the horizon for people who lost (or gained!) stuff unfairly.

I seriously doubt it, but this kinda seems like the sort of situation that warrants some kind of ... I hesitate to say "compensation" but am struggling to come up with a better word here. It's kinda wack that some of us lost things we were very lucky to get (and are highly unlikely to reacquire any time soon!) while others were able to exploit in order to hoard and/or sell heaps of Companion gear.

I was expecting that to have been addressed yesterday. It was a bit of a letdown that it wasn't.

Still nada?

Something something fluke something something

In all fairness I am not expecting it to be 'reinstated', but now I am pretty hesitant to equip my companions.

You know fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.

Still nothing?!
GINA WAKE UP

The only reason I can think of to wait until after the maintenance is to say that they fixed an exploit.

And perhaps it wasn’t fixed as no short notes have been posted.

Nothing? Nothing at all??

It wouldn't be so funny except they literally said they would provide some notes

I don't know what they did, but it was Bad.

My latency on PC-EU has gone up from a steady 80-100 to 210 -250 in all zones with spikes of +999 in Blackwood, making it unplayable. I mean, I have an account on US server if I want to play in those conditions.....but I don't.

May we know what was involved in today's maintenance, and if we will get a fix for the fix that broke my game?

For whatever little it's worth, just as a point of comparison, I'm hovering in the ~150ms latency area, which is uncommonly good for me. I was having significant issues the last couple days, and so were a few people I talk to in-game; upon asking them how it's going today, they also report that their latency isn't noticeably bad anymore.

Sorry you are not having that experience. High ping suuucks.

Thanks for the supportive words

I never normally have ping issues, but it shot up today after maintenance - this morning I did Rockgrove before the server went down and it was just buggy, but not laggy.
I'm going to do something nice for myself and step back from the PC for the day, hoping tomorrow will be better LOL
I wish you good ping forever, and thanks again.

Third data point. My ping is all over the place tonight. I'm fine for five minutes then it skyrockets and I have to log off to reset it. It might be a problem on the path but if so I can't seem to find it. Or it might be all the people playing idk.
