EZ Server

Well someone will start a thread about it so figured I would be the first!



I threw this suggestion out for T7 so will do it again how about a velious zone like Kael or ToV?!

Going to hold off on those 2 zones for now.

How about Fort Mech or Meldrath's Majestic Mansion?

Zone 401 - Valdeholm !

I just went and checked this zone out... I must say it looks badass!

Valde has an incredible amount of natural lag from the "springs" or whatever they are that sit in the middle of the zone ; Not sure if there is a way to change that but it can get nasty fast with the lag spikes it gives off

I always liked Riftseeker's Sanctum.

I went to that area.. and didn't notice it. hmm even with 100% far clip

I was on RoF client with all settings turned on as well...


What client were you using btw? I do notice different lag spikes on different clients due to particles in the environment.   (which you can turn off by deleting the emt files I THINK... not 100% on that one... so don't do it unless you have a backup of the files lol)

RoF enabled on ezserver yet? Or was that on another server?

Was messing around on another server testing out RoF .. (its still fairly buggy)

Vald looks cool based on pics from Allakhazam alone. Riftseeker's looks cool too, but I think all the surface details would really mess with your head after a while.

Underfoot client, it's been that way for some time, not sure how exactly it plays out on EZ, but I know when it was live it was unbearable and I've found other servers that have valde enabled that the general area gives off a massive lag. -shrugs- could just be me but I can't imagine that to be the case :p

What about Convorteum? Magus Sisters have some interesting possibilities.....or Creation. Fantastic looking zone, too.

Valdeholm has alot of doors to open, and tight spaces to fight in.  Something I would want to avoid in a timed run.  Ashengate might not be a bad choice if you want to do this tier as indoor.  Kael would be pretty neat too and so would Solteris.

Loping Plains is almost perfect in my opinion. Open spaces and great scenery. I would love a similar zone.

T8 is going to be a bit more casual or less complicated than last few zones. Just going to be a quick fun zone, not too hardcore like T5 or anything.

Have we gotten an update when T8 spells recipes will be done? 

From what I remember the recipes have been done for a while, but they aren't being implemented yet because the zone is still "fresh". The spell recipes are meant to help prevent a huge roadblock trying to get that one specific spell from an old tier. At least that's how I think they should be; I don't like the idea that recipes are meant to replace actually farming for the spells.

Personally I think it's the right decision to not implement the T8 recipes. For a while at least. For top tier spells players should have to earn them and not be able to just EZ-Bake them.

Agree wholeheartedly with Blarr.   T8 spells should be looted not created for at least a few more tiers.


On another note.  It may be worth looking into T8 again if time (and power) permits.    Pathing in that zone is a bit rough and could use some refactoring.   

What is needed to survive T8 bosses since the warrior nerfs?

Went in there with Full t7 / Roa 202+ / SoA / Charm v2 / Insane goblin, tank died to melee damage in 8 seconds with 2 healers in group.  

Didnt have Skin of Drake or shaman/mage which might help.

Wow, it is way too early for T8 spoilers.

Figuring it out is half the fun no?     So many spoilers  :(

ehh? what? /ninja post removal

Tee hee!

On topic - Be glad that you're not ready for T8 - enjoy the finished content instead :)

also as a side note, get your resists to over 2k before you attempt T8.
