Roadmap

Love this ..... especially the ones that can be found, hope can find some in hidden chests around the world .... etc

 

• Item Reputation & Affinity: Items will gain a reputation and affinity to the player wielding them after repetition of certain actions. That reputation will be represented by a name and an effect. For example, after killing 1000 dark elves, your trusty long sword is now called “Elf Bane” and deals an extra 2% of damage against dark elves.

How will this happen if items break? It wont last long enough with the deterioration of weapons ...... I love the idea of what you mentioned, but not sure how it will work with item breaking beyond usage till repaired if you have the very rare component. If not, then that item gets destroyed, and my Bow's reputation is gone ..... WHY BOTHER THEN? I only see this working if weapons will no longer get destroyed unless you choose to do so for a newer and better one ..... Please explain ....

BTW; I just want to know...

Sword of Ba'Heer
A unique, startling level weapon that is imbued with precious metals and jewels suitable for enchanting. Is permanently enchanted as a light source.
A version of this item appears in Ernie Cline's book Ready Player One

As far as our reward equipment, is it going to last forever? Or is this Sward of Ba'Heer only "permanently enchanted while it lasts?"

Just Askin' so we're on the same page here with our "pay to win reward items"...
I think it helps to keep asking such questions as far as pledge items go...

Who knows, maybe my pledge housing will get all beat up by a band of Cabbalist some day and suffer from breakage too

I am asking how they plan to make this work with the way things work now, geesh already. I never said make sure it doesn't break, or anything you quoted (I only see this working if ). I am asking since the items will loose all durability and eventually break, how will what they said will happen, (item reputation for killing so many critters) happen under the current system?

I don't get you Kristof .... obviously you don't understand what I am asking ....

 

Pledge Items will never lose Maximum Durability, so you can always repair them to Like New status.

(Except, for obvious reasons, the Crystal Sword.)

 

With Maximum Durability being repairable, items have as much life as you wish them to. With the adjustments being made to item wear through use to clear the bug they found, they should last longer than they do now. Chris has said that he thinks right now, armor lasts a bit too long, and weapons don't last long enough.

Why would they introduce a cool major system and let it remain unworkable?

 

~Thanks @Rufus D`Asperdi ~
That makes me feel allot better. It may not be but starter equipment level stuff, but I'm a wanker so I don't care if I can't hit things as hard as others, or withstand the heavy blows that others do and besides that, "The Sward of Ba'Heer" makes such a great disco dance item that I couldn't bring myself to ever part with it... "what can I say?", I'm just a Saturday Night Fever kind of playa'
But by comparison with most player made weapons, it's more of a "pay to suck" item than anything else... but I love it... !'

Is it safe to assume that all available Episode 1 (Non-POT) lots, including the island lots that were mentioned, will be in by Release 32?

 

At this point, I have not found any better alternative for Sword of Ba'heer as far as a one hand blade weapon.

 

I have crafted long swords that dward our reward sword. Like plus 4 strength and a dexterity bonus too. Make friends with crafters and give them you gold and resources and you too will be rewarded.

 

This is already in game. Have found alchemy recipes in a chest in Ecteter Crag mines...

 

AWESOME

 

Yes

 

i really like all the features on the roadmap!

 

I'm a bit amazed at the number of people reacting to this post as if it were new information.

 

which in turn justifies its existence

 

True.
