Release 44 Instructions

@DarkStarr
Hi, I was just wondering if this was a typo in this releases addition to the add-on store:
Elite Elven Mage Armor (digital)
It says it is classified as "Light Armor". It looks like cloth, however it says this about "chainmail" in the description:
"You can choose to salvage these items for a single Eternal Pattern from each item that can be used to make other chain armor items look like these items."

Is it actually chainmail? My wife was waiting to buy it but wanted to make sure what type it was first.

 

Where do we find the skill icons to put on our bars for the new dread items?

 

Good catch! Bad cut and paste. It is cloth. Fixing now.

 

Speaking of, is the new elven fighter Heavy Chain like its predecessor or plate?

 

Heavy Chain.

 

@DarkStarr also once you equip the heart of sorrows and patch you loose the tool tips for any necklace.

 

Please report in bug forums, not in this thread

 

Where are they ? Been killing for an hour didnt find a single one....or they are rare like the artifacts ?

 

Not sure the intended drop rate but i got one to drop after about a 100 +/- kobolds in the elysium mine.

 

YESSS

i am probably the only person who uses these. They were so slow it made it impossible to fluidly navigate dungeons, pvp etc. so i am going to the addon store to show my appreciation.

 

Damn ... well at least we know theyre out there...and not bugged... thx

 

Yay!

 

I opened just to see what was inside... it was nice probably 8-10 items, a recipe, some food, map, potions, etc... Obviously would wreck the economy to have them on every drop but hopefully, they will monitor and tweak the drop rates based on their expectations. At this point, it could be doubled and they would still seem scarce. Just my observation so far.

 

@DarkStarr ; I thought Melee was getting a break with the change to Dodge but I have noticed something and not sure if it was intended or not so here it goes:

I am two handed sword melee. Bladed Combat and Thrust at 120. Usually use Body Slam/Sneak attack/Thrust as opening attack. I have been working Twin Foothills for about 45 minutes now and only get about 40 pct damage output from what I was getting before. Is this intended that mobs both animal and humanoid are much more resilient to melee damage or a mistake. Using same buffs , armour, weapon as before where I would get 500 + damage from behind the mob before they came out of the body slam stun and only getting a few 100 point crits sparingly. Please let me know what is going on with melee. R/Boris/El Pirata

 

Yes they seam to be are. They said this would improve the economy but they drop way to seldom to make any real impact. I hope they do improve the drop rate after killing most of the weapons that used to drop that the community made gold from. No one is buying much since that change.

 

Please start a new thread and tag @Chris

He meant create a new thread in the R44 Feedback forum.

 

@Chris, @DarkStarr; Thank you for the quick response and it will be fixed next patch. R/Boris/El Pirata

 

@DarkStarr @Berek I think the quiver in the Elven Elite Archer Armor is quite a cool feature. Would it be possible to get a picture of it in the Add-On Store?
