    "In R36, we have added wagon or boat teleporters to the overworld at all POT scene Entrances, including ones near the center of each town"

    Unless there is a bug, or the above portion is worded incorrectly, I don't see any Wagon at any entrance. I will admit that it wouldn't make sense to have an "exit wagon" at an entrance, because that would be redundant. So, if you only meant that the center of a town would have a wagon or boat, then that is what should be stated. An exit at a center is a start, but far from what should be a final solution. There are many decent places within a template, that one could have their main settlement, but the current scheme still prevents the customization many of us are looking for. I understand you want to prevent some possibility of "griefing", but there are better ways to accomplish this. No need for me to continue on this path...... I just hope you are still open to improving what is currently offered.

    I think in this case "entrance" means zone in point. on some maps the zone in point is not near an exit arch.

    I agree,global chat killed doing things in Warcraft. People just sitting in places talking all the time and doing nothing. IMHO, global chat should never be brought into SoTa.

    Where, if any where, is this information stored in local configuration? As the DataLocation is used for saving CurrentPlayerData.xml and the chat logs, external apps (like MiniMapper) need to be able to find the base directory.

    Hello to everyone,

    I need to say a few words, and is about the XP that a few mage's (fire tipe) get when the Control point where bug and exploit that to get high level's... (in this pach that is fixed but, what happend with the xp get? they coud get so much xp to build 1 or 2 class with no problem.. plz tell me what is your opinion with this stuff)
    I say all this because i start has a Warrior (2 hand sword) and when i reach lvl 75 i had rly hard times with getting fast xp, control point where a solution but not fast has a mage, even if I try to hunt a "boss" i cant solo like fire mage... and that for me make me get bored; even the archers can kill a few boss with the slow and dots... so I leave the game for a few weaks...

    I love this game, i am love this change's, but thers a few thins that will help the game alot...

    1.- What is this about the multiplayer, solo mode? why dont you make opend world for ever Multiplayer including towns and cities... and the Hunt zone the chance to choose Multiplayer/Solo/Party.
    2.- World Chat (for chat/Sell/Buy)
    3.- Instance or dungeon's with a nice reward. (dont have to be Items, with xp, or other point that give you a chance for buy or get a few materials)

    Well this is a small thread so for me that will be all.
    ty for your time.

    Atte
    (Sorry for my english, but i am from the place that your president hate; Latino América / Chile).

    Seems like I have to buy every recipe now, other than the most basic. I don't have anyone to teach them to me. Before I knew I could create recipes without buying them, I had spent hours going to different towns just trying to find a vendor for the correct recipe. That just is not fun. Is there at least a way to know where I need to go to find a recipe? Is there a way to know if I have the skill to use the recipe in the first place?

    Agreed. I just checked the latest updates and the recipe should be in now.

    Big cities like Ardoris have a lot of recipe vendors, though it can take some hunting. I think if you hover over the recipe in the vendor window it will show the prof level in red if you don't have the prof for it.

    • Stack Limits on Effects: Support was added to limit the number of effects on targets. Most effects like Firebolt, Fireball, Rend, and others will have a max of 3 concurrent effects. This means 3 per spell/skill; not total. So, a player could have 3 Rends and 3 Firebolt DOTs on a target at once. Repeat castings of spells will remove the oldest effect first.
    Yeah this is not happening, Flaming fist a target 3 times back to back to back and it is not triple ticking for dmg on the DOT... Same goes with Fireball, Ring of Fire!

    If you are going to increase MOB hps by up to 4x. please allow the other changes which impact dmg to be implemented at the same time!

    Also on a side note, Strength of Earth now makes you stand still when casting this buff. This needs to go back to being able to cast while on the move, just like all the other buffs. Not to even bring up the lowest buff timers in history of any MMO.

    The "Ornate" Greenhouse 4-story row house on Hometown island looks cool, but I'd prefer one that has the same interior as the Stucco houses. The stonework!

    I've never crafted a HOUSE. Are the recipes in-game? Does this fall under Carpentry? Is the recipe discoverable? I don't know where to begin. Sorry I'm an idiot.

    The craftable Greenhouse Row is Carpentry, minimum proficiency 75. I don't know if it's discoverable, though the price of the recipe is probably drop in the bucket when you consider the cost of the materials to make it.

    Not at all. Everyone has questions!

    It wouldn't be redundant if you were in a nested POT and the exit gates went to the "main" town.

    I'm sure that the way to get a recipe will get put into sotawiki as they are discovered.

    Also, the +5 from an expert table may be enough to let you learn/use a recipe. I'm not sure how we can use that when teaching recipes, though... maybe the trade can be initiated with the recipient at a crafting table.

    All carpentry, all I've seen so far are 70 proficiency (85 skill at an expert table, 98 skill at a regular table)

    EDIT: Yep, the new house recipe is 75. And the recipe costs 750! Time to grind a few more carpentry skill points.

    Don't forget that a True Bronze engraved tool will also boost your proficiency. That + the table +5 table is huge boost.
