[X] My Assistant

If you look at the effect during battle you'll see exactly what it does ...

fuck i feel dumb now. never tried to mouse over effects. thanks and sorry for failing out.

14? You have one unassigned point and 117 assigned points, at level 88 with 30 levels of ability boost (= 118 total points). You're going to have to explain to me where the other 14 points came from. I know some people are missing a few points, and I'm still looking into that - you might be affected if you a> had at some point gotten ability points outside of the normal ways, b> had unassigned ability points hanging around and c> did not have any points in the ability tree credit thingies - but for most people that's at most three points. There's no way you're missing 14.

I'm pretty sure it was around that much. They were unassigned and none of them were in the credit abilities. I remember that I was trying to save them for the next tier of abilities so there should have been quite a few.


Edit: I remember now, it's the older days when you could get 2 ability points per rank, and there was a chance to get 2 per level.

People were on cake for those 100+ grinds I think, I used to get to 40 or so on easy and maybe 1/2 that on normal. Don't use potions much, do you use the healing spell?
Invest in the healing spell and you'll also want to drop down to cake or easy now.

I'm trying cake right now.
It seems that it is damn too easy. Much, much more easier than normal.
I'm in round 21 now and both my HP and MP are still damn high!!!
And yes, I do use healing spells.

did it get retweaked?

I'm on round 70 cake atm

Of course it's much easier, but the rewards are also much lower.

And you know that from trying one grindfest and fleeing at round 10? Level 40-somethings were never supposed to grindfest their merry way to 300+ rounds, that was obviously broken. This? Not so much, but we'll see when I have the stats in.

emm... i'm competely sure that i've done 3 cakegrinds and failed 1 arena after new build enabled... that is enough for me to revaluate my new potential... and i always flee when i see that i cant beat current wave beacause i don't recieve anything from killed mobs if i'll die.

i dont said any positive word for existance of such eternal grinds... i just said that 10levels ago, before equipment and cure which, as i think, shoud make player some more powerfull againist mobs, i was able to beat mobs much more effectively thew now with full equip cure shield and 20 AP more...

finally all i said was just my opinion on current changes and nothing more. experience of travian, ogame and timeZero taught me not to criticize admins and developers (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

edit: it looks like only 25/30+ lvls has problems with grinding and arena

Ugh crap, I forgot about that. Going to complicate matters a bit.

Why not just give us all 1.5*level ap? That would give us all a bonus ranging from slight to moderate, and at the same time compensate for the 'missing' AP.
Note: Yes, this is shameless, I know it.

Oooh? What happened?
I was grindfesting and my abilities suddenly went up by 3.
You did something, Temboro?

Holy crap my armor just got cut in half.

That sucks.

Right now I'm doing a Montage because I have stuff to do, but afterwards, I'll evaluate the new changes.

I understand your reasoning for killing the credit bonuses, but ouch man, ouch. Hath is going to be almost worthless because perks cost too much and give too little bonus. Even resetting them (which you said you were not going to) would do little more than flood the market with Hath further driving down the price.

I can't even bother myself to complain because that change basically killed my will to live (on this site, not in general)...

Folks.....



Have any of you checked your Armors and Weapons???


He nerfed those waaaaaaay down -and after I spent all that C on them over the past several days since he enabled Equipment....... ah well, c'est la guerre..... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

That's where equipment proficiency comes into play.

Sweet, I got 3 AP's back. Although I don't know if this is the right number. But I will take whatever is going to join me.

There was a Mind Raper in my hourly battle, of course accompanied by 2 other fiends. Yay, got rapped into pieces! Almost instant kill. Could only struggle about 2 rounds without killing any of them. So sad. But I will wait the 2 hours till I use Montage and go to bed. Till then, I will try to do my best in winning some of the hourly battles.

thanks for the update. Everything looks good so far. I kinda get owned in grindfest on normal now lol.

Something.

What exactly makes Hath worth anything less?

Not nerfed as such, but it's not quite as OP at the low-to-middle levels anymore. Relatively, whatever you have is a powerful as it was compared to everything else.

Personally I'm finding this system to get harder and harder. When the first big update came out. 0.3.1. (Whichever one added Heal and Shield to level level 10 and 30. I could easily get to Rolling stones with no real problems, I might have had to use one or two potions.

Keep in mind, my stats have improved much more from then, but now, I find it difficult to even pass Test of Faith, and when I do, I have to use 2 godly health and mana droughts. It's getting a tad ridiculous in my opinion. Not to mention, since this new update, I can't make credits for shit, and because of that I cant train nearly as fast, if at all (or anything besides arena) because nearly all the extra credits I'm either attempting to save up for better equips, or using it to buy a few spare pots to ATTEMPT to get higher in the arena.


^ Just my two cents.

What exactly makes Hath worth anything less?

The Hath Perks are not as good, so it makes sense that they will be valued less. For example, buying Penny Pincher was an investment that over the long haul one could recoup and start to make a profit off of (the time frame was long, but still it could be). There are less credits being generated, so people are going to be less likely to spend them on something that is less useful. I'm not sure what price the market will decide upon, but it is going to be lower than what it was and people are going to lose a lot of credits posting auctions at the old prices before the market determines a new value.

Of course I'm just speculating. Maybe people will still buy them...

It seems cake does get tweaked back to really being cake.

Last night, cake felt like HEROIC, in terms of damage output by mobs.

Also did Bleeding Wound proc got heavily nerfed? It used to do about 50 damage or so to mobs, now it only did 4.

I don't know if it's all due strictly to better Coding on Tenboro's part, or if the latest version of Battle Buddy has been written much better, or if it's a combiantion of the two.....


...but this new HV just rockets by almost as fast as you can click!!!!
