Been a while since I've played.  Has the chat window glitch been resolved when all the mobs are visible on the map?  That used to drive me nuts to have to hide all gnolls or orcs to read chat.  And could I see a screenshot of the HUD?  Thx GT.

You were not lying Akka, board and Magelo are running lightning fast.  Scary to see how fast Rent's Boots of the Brutish Enforcer pop up when I'm casually perusing his wardrobe.  Not that I spend my time now undressing Rent...digitally...daily.
In all seriousness, thanks for the update, hoping things are going as smooth in game as they are here!

I've been away a little while, but I'm not entirely sure what the benefit of an exp zone would be.  Yes, you could pump a couple levels on your ring, but at the end of the day that isn't what is letting you zone pull.  The reason people grind lowbie zones is to amass essences for more UW's, or flag alts.  Other than UC2's or the like, I can't see a reason to dump time into a zone that isn't giving you essences toward endgame gear.

To OP's post, I was a firm believer in dead instances.  Places where you would hand in 40 warlord tokens and get 8 bard, 8 bst and 24 others that you didn't need.  I always made sure to turn in on a cycle.  When I was down to the that "last item", I would hand in tokens in my guild/raid and public instances.  For some reason this helped me with my RNG blues.  I saw this more frequently as I farmed ToFS later on (clearing 5+ instances per 10minutes makes for big piles of data).  There are some instances that are INSANELY good, and some that just seem to be a complete waste.
I realize this is Anti-Camp Radius 2016, since the %'s are set equally through all instances, but it helped me stay as close to sane as was possible

I'll weigh in on this one as well.  Thanks for all the kind words Chunka (blush).  I think Chunka hit the nail right on the head.  I came into EZ with a friend of mine and burned through content from bottom to top in a little over a year.  Please understand, I did this in about an hour a day during weeknights and 2 nights a week of 4 hour sessions.  I was able to take advantage of the generosity of the vets here with buffs and knowledge of the game.  I brought my own buff crew along since day 1, but I recognized early the value that the buffs offered.  The buffs trivialized content up to about t5.  I can literally count on 1 finger the number of times that I died to something where I wasn't intentionally limit testing.  (Goddamn charm mob in LDoN on the way from Frog to Tree).  I don't mean to pee in anyone's sandbox, I adored my time on EZ, so much so that I still keep this forum my homepage even though I haven't logged in for a couple months.
I guess at the end of the day, the question becomes what is the EZ experience supposed to be?  For me it was easy, there wasn't any part of the content where I had to wrack my brain and figure out how to write a key that was going to keep agro on a 2nd toon and heal him and dispel the off tanked mob, etc.  And that was great, but it didn't provide hurdles high enough to keep me interested and the buffs exasperated the issue.
TLDR:  Buffs make 50% of the game too EZ

I would like to reiterate one last time before this thread is locked.  The issue I have personally with GSoA's being 15m is that it trivializes content for noobs.  Unless you are boxing 18 toons, it is really, REALLY hard to spend 15m before hitting t6 (assuming you are farming your own essences since no one ever sells those, because they have unlimited funds already).  With 2 toons having on tier ninja strike augs in mainhand/offhand you can pretty much 6 box t5 with zero challenge.  It would be interesting to me to see how high you could take a SoA and 2 NS augs using 15m, I always ignore firestrike augs since they were something I didn't bother with until I was in t10 (for my playstyle they were pointless).  If you get some freetime and want to see the reason I don't like 15m GSoA's check out a sum of material costs for SoA + 2 NS augs.

daisy chaining would be something more of the lines of having a toon with an action and a timed command to send to another toon to press a button and loop back to original button.  Thus creating an infinite loop.  Also to toss in my 2cp, If there are 15 instances open and 15 toons using /tar wisp, /stick, /attack, etc. that is very much something I would imagine is frowned upon.  It isn't a script that is running or anything, but you are not actively playing in EACH of the zones you have toons in.  That seems like a bit of a rules infringement.

EoA was designed to be backloaded, it wasn't meant to be useful/meaningful really until it was rank50.  And then....it is AWESOME!  It is what I would consider "The" endgame item.

I would like to see a list of the 78 warriors that logged in   There be some MIA folks out there!

I will agree with Fruiti regardless, due to amazingly long silence being broken!

For the UW the only thing I would change is somehow pointing out that you can't socket your nerds into UWI.  A couple people I know of got their UW before their HS1 aug and they were unhappy.  That being said, augs are easier to grind out now, so even that to me becomes irrelevant.  If you have the time, you can grind out the essences for the UW, so it would seem logical to give players access to it sooner.  For me doing some of the UW grind during t5 kept me sane when I was leveling up my first UW.

As for the GSoA, I am on the fence here.  On one side, as a vet I understand the need to purchase these to fill in earrings of the ages.  On the other side, they are destroying the game for noobs.  It has been a while since I cared enough to run the numbers, but the last time I did, I think you were able to buy all the materials (and maybe even essences, back when people sold essences) for 2 or 3 NinjaStrike augs to t5 by selling 1 GSoA.  And that was when they were 10m plat.  These days the vets are basically printing money anytime they log in, so I've heard of people paying 15m for GSoA. 

The person buying them gets a GSoA.....wheee only 52 more and it will be useful.  The person selling them gets 15m plat, which equates to farming 60 SLS (do you remember farming SLS back in the day?).  The amount of time and grind that went into getting those first strike augs was tough, but it set me up to understand what was in store for me later on in the game.  I just think having what becomes a grossly huge nest egg that early on takes away any challenge from leveling up.  The server becomes too EZ.

Having a buff group with uc nothing is better than not having a buff group in my opinion.  I only geared my tank (first), core dps(second) and paladin for progression.  Once I finished up t9 armor on tank and dps, I went back and filled in some of the other slots and pumped up some uc2's and 3's.  I always tried to make sure I kept my warrior in highest available UC and SoA and it seemed to roll pretty smoothly for me.  I also put in a lot of work while I was in t5 getting my UW caught up.  If you are going to 6 box, get you UW on warrior up to current tier if at all possible.  I know ToFS can be a real sticking point on the first eofs VII and masters, but it is well worth it for the dmg increase you are going to see for every combat after.

deleted workiing hate u don't haft to worry about it I fucked up and just got rid of him for u to save u some  time I see that your busy as u said in your post and u can always check because he is gone

This is exactly the bone-headed garbage that tells me this person has no business being around a small community.  This person chooses to defend a person of questionable character, then chooses to swindle someone else (a move of questionable character), and now...he chooses to delete his toon knowing full well that the other shoe is about to fall and trying to avoid owning up to what he did.  It would truly be a blessing to have this person and all of the toons they have had access to removed from the server.
The player pool just needs a little chlorine right now and I fully hope Hate drops the ban-hammer with extreme prejudice.

I have heard a few people who purport the probability of taking one toon to end game.  With enough time and infinite patience, you can get anything to t10 I would imagine.

Alrazor is your warrior named the same in game?  I may be able to provide some assistance.
