    DPS'n advice

    I have long suspected that the game uses 6 HIT = 1 DMG for balancing purposes. When your data is converted into DMG multipliers, it seems like this holds true. Observed DMG Multiplier = (MISS*0 + GLANCE*0.5 + HIT*1 + HEAVY*1.25 + CRIT*1.5)/(MISS + GLANCE + HIT + HEAVY + CRIT) Predicted DMG...

    You want level 50s to keep playing

    I just don't understand people. Time has value. For me personally, I've spent over $18,000 in opportunity cost by playing this game in the past year. The $10/mo. is wildly insignificant and shouldn't be the reason anyone plays or doesn't play a game. Like, if you can't afford $10 a month, then...

    You want level 50s to keep playing

    So, you think you should be able to get exactly what you want without paying? Am I reading that right?

    Are you sure you disagree?

    LIVE February 25th; what's new?

    If new players can't afford to interact with the auction house, then how does the auction house make new players happy? In WoW, whenever I made a new player, I would take all gathering professions and then put low lvl mats on the AH and make a ton of gold -- much more than a new character at...

    LIVE February 25th; what's new?

    My concern is that the auction house facilitates trade without counters in place to prevent market saturation or to encourage actually playing the game. It provides more incentive to lvl as quickly as possible to make more gold, so you can just purchase the items you want. Games like WoW...

    Very much afraid of the auction house.

    Yeah, I understand why they were made, and I'm not going to stop playing because of them, but I still don't like them :P

    Not a fan of many of the recent changes that seem to compromise the spirit of the game :/

    Thoughts from a New Player

    I am already aware of this, and it's clearly not what I meant.

    Thoughts from a New Player

    It doesn't, though. Different players seeing different things is one of the main things I hate about modern games. I literally found this game by searching for an "mmo without instances" precisely because I want to have a persistent world with a shared experience.

    Thoughts from a New Player

    That's literally their main current objective, and the game is completely free to play until it happens.

    Thoughts from a New Player

    If it's the same thing, then you already have your compass, right?

    Checking back in

    Not at all. You have to think ahead. For instance, if you have an already pretty tough pull, and then all of a sudden there are extra adds that you didn't plan to have, you use ember abilities NOW to do more damage and kill them faster, to mitigate more damage, or to save stamina for heals...

    Worried about the Linux client.

    I been playing since July 1 on Linux Mint Xfce with Lutris using wine-ge-8-26-x86_64, and it's been fine. I never even bothered to try a different Wine version.

    Make the Embers flare

    It didn't though. I haven't played EA since the last patch; I'm waiting for the Halloween decorations and GM events to go away. They could say, "Oh yeah, that happened to me; I fixed it by..." Or, you know, they could just acknowledge that they understood I was having an issue, so I could try...

    Feedback Marshal specialisation

    In case you didn't know, pursuit will instantly break halt, even if you used a reagent to halt, so you can halt a group of mobs and then use pursuit to select one for your group to attack. Pursuit is also really useful for those ranged mobs who constantly move away from you. Pursuit allows you...

    Make the Embers flare

    Did you play Throne and Liberty? Because I did, and it's not competition at all. In 13 hours of play, getting to lvl 21, I never interacted with another player other than having them tag a mob before me in an "event" that's "kill as many things as you can in this boring and insanely densely...

    Seasonal Decorations

    Again, this isn't an argument. I'm not trying to convert anyone. Also, I don't think you actually get it. Your responses are very dismissive. For instance, calling it "100% immersion" is both completely inaccurate and makes it sound like an unrealistically high expectation. Regardless, I was...

    Seasonal Decorations

    Why don't I just play retail wow and enjoy it instead of playing Embers Adrift? Why don't I just work and enjoy it instead of playing games at all?
