Title: Updates 12-18-13
Post by: Hunter on December 17, 2013, 11:56:19 pm
Will bump up the chance for CT Essences a little bit, maybe 1/15 boss and 1/300 trash. I don't want to spam them out like they were before though when this zone was first made custom.

Our AFK Progress Quest will be disabled for now and at least for the holidays.

This is to reduce lag since we know more people will be logging online for Christmas, New Years, etc.

That AFK Quest was pretty big, thousands of lines of code, all stats saved to quest_globals, calculating combat rounds, etc, maybe too heavy for server if 200+ online.



Added Cowardice Augments to Qvic, CT, and T1-T9 zones at a general drop rate of 5% off bosses.

Rank 1 - Qvic Bosses and Angry Beholder
Rank 2 - CT Bosses
Rank 3 - T1/T2 Ornate Chest and Ancient Dragon
Rank 4 - T3/T4 Bosses
Rank 5 - T5 Bosses
Rank 6 - T6 Chest and OMM
Rank 7 - T7 Bosses
Rank 8 - T8 Bosses
Rank 9 - Chest
Rank 10 - Future Tier 10 Zone

Combine any 2 of same rank to get next rank.

Shoulders Only

Reduces Aggro

Awesome, glad there is no lag now that Progress Quest was disabled for Holidays.

I really wish it didn't lag the server so much, cause it is a neat idea :)

Thanks for revisiting CT essences again, Hunter.

Gonna bitch about this again, not for myself (past it) but for the people both in my guild and out of it who've had the issue: I know you want to keep UW rare, and you should IMO. But the drop rates on some of the essences (especially CT, which is first tier for them) are severely curtailing the ability of newer players to advance melee augs. The augs are pretty much a must for content after T4 if you run melee classes, and the way things stand its a very gnarly bottleneck.

Was this intentional?
