How about an update to Ancient: Call of Power...that song capped out at 70 and we are now at lvls 77/78.  Would be great for that increase.

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

why are we not allowed to research in T8


I believe that was answered in that same article...because that is (more or less) current content.

I'll go one step further...if you have made it to t5 and have not spent enough time on forums(kinda necessary as lots of info on t5 is posted on forums too) to see the spell recipes which is right near the spell AND server file links......I think that is all that really needs to be pointed out.

Hundreds...heck thousands have done it before you...so it isn't impossible.

If cg/fg is making you about ready to pull the plug...then you need to go ahead and do it....cg/fg is just the beginning.  You get use to it over time and become numb to the whole grind.....heck it even becomes fun....kind of like a personal battle....you against the RNG

This doesn't sound too far from Tacvi.  Tacvi at one point dropped essences like candy, but toward the end, Hunter DRASTICALLY nerfed drop rates of Tacvi Essences.  Thankfully I have had no need to farm essences in Cazic Thule but from what is being described here, it doesn't sound like it is much different.  PoAir named drop essences 1/40....that's why most people wait till a d/l weekend to farm t3-4 so the drop rate is more in the 1/20 range.  Abyss is close to that too with the added benefit of the trash having a chance to drop an essence as well.  CT is a low tier zone so it isn't like pulling teeth like breaking into T5. Anguish you only have one guaranteed essence off the end OMM, and have cleared T6 several times back to back and never seen an essence other than off OMM.  Heck T8 you have an even tougher time getting an essence as I have geared at 2 groups and not seen one yet off a named other than last mob.  Just think you should keep risk v. reward and look at how other zones play out too.

Is login messed up?  Cant get in and eqemu website failing to pull up too. 

Bet Fugitive cant wait for this fix....FINALLY.

Seems like a major error in planning. I do not know why you would keep upgrading character's epics to 7.0s if after the first one you found that the 7.0 has one type 22 aug slot.

It is a good idea to allow lower level augs to fit in slot 22.

This was brought up when T7 came out over a year ago (?). It is not that big a deal really. it slows your progression down a little to make that extra NS aug...but a lot of people did it before you, so have faith that it can be done.  I waited a good long while, with duel wielding NS classes, until Halloween events to finish the NS because I am too cheap to build everything else up and offhand doesn't strike as much as primary.....just a thought you could try.  When I got my first 7.0 (on a pally) I had to go back through and redo the epic because I didn't have the funds at the time to make the FS9.  ...it will be ok just take a deep breath and farm on!

I see your point, and very valid it is.   

No you are right.  You don't need to clear the zone to progress BUT once you kill the initial stone droppers...and all of X-mob-type, give an hour or so and then more stone droppers spawn.  So if you are not killing as fast as others do...you will miss those spawn and as a direct result miss the possible named that could spawn as a direct result.  So I can see the issue they are complaining about.

I wouldn't be so harsh on the longer repop on T7...if you need the zone to refresh after a clear just /say repop instance and your problem is fixed.  Shouldn't be an issue to have t7 have the same kind of respawn timer as t6...heck I remember it taking 2 days to clear t6 when the content first came out and I didn't have decent strike augs

I am so excited for tomorrow!!!!!       

Is the login server acting stupid for anyone else?  I got 5 of my 12 toons in and then started giving me unknown error codes when I tried to log others in.  Restarted computer to see if it was on my end, now I cant get any in=)
