Nice. Now something to do other than just factions and Chaos/Order.

Re: Shard Publish
perhaps im missing something but i just finished hopping around to all of the previous high end dungeons and its incredibly dumb from my point of view, tweaking things a bit is cool, completely ruining all of the dungeons is not.
why is destard now filled with lizardmen and gargoyles instead of dragons?
virtually everything seems to have been replaced either with pointless weak spawns (wtf is the point of mongbats on the 3rd level of previously high end dungeons?) or shit that is magic heavy and drops jack shit as far a loot goes thereby not worth killing.
as far as champion spawns go, what will they be dropping? it was stated that no powerscrolls would drop (thankfully), i really hope that also means artifacts or other rare items useful in pvp will also NOT be found on these.
i do not understand the reasoning behind severing a large part of the old school feel that myself and many others enjoy to throw things upside down, and as far as champion spawns go there are spawn points in t2a for all of them so why not just put them there instead of shitting all over those of us who enjoy the classic dungeons as they were?
bleh whatever, your shard can do what you want with it obviously, but i personally see this change, at least to the magnitude that it is, as driving players away rather than attracting them.

Re: Shard Publish
Nothing was ruined.
Go to the second floor...
Go to the lower floors.
Champ spawn drops will be a surprise. None of the AOS crap will be dropped.
Nothing about those dungeons was classic.
The world spawn on Hybrid was litterly a 1 night rush job. This was 3 months of work, tweaking, playing testing and ensuring a fun but challenging experience.
It will require constant tweaking now that 1000 players are in the world but that's what our job is. Your job is to play it and not bitch but provide feedback after you've actually done it.
You're new, you dont know what changes like this do to this shard.
Thanks,
Ryan

Re: Shard Publish
im not new, been here off and on with the same account for 507 days now. as far as UO emulators in general i played on ipy from start to finish and came here when azeroth shut it down. i returned in the past 2 weeks to scope things out and secure a house/guildstone as it was/is my intention to bring my world of warcraft guild over here to play as a secondary game and allow our fans and friends from other servers or factions the opportunity to run with us for a while before the release of darkfall online.
anyhow im not going to get into a pissing match and go back and forth quoting each other with the administrator of the server, and i dont know why your so defensive when i think my post was rather benign and nonconfrontational so ill just agree to disagree.
hopefully the next publish wont see a button that says "trammel" on the moongate, right before being instagibbed via guards on my red upon running into town, causing me to read the statloss message instead of the upcoming samurai empire patch notes =P
aside from this (imo terrible) change hats off to you for work on the server, remember if people arent bitching they dont care, and if they dont care your not doing a good job.

I wasnt really trying to be confrontational at all I was just answering things.
You need to actually play this change before you comment on it.

Re: Shard Publish
I know you're being sarcastic, but how is harder spawn even compareable to Trammel?

Re: Shard Publish
I'm down with the new spawns in the dungeons. I rarely go there anyways, so maybe this will make me go more often. My only complaint is with SOME of the overland spawn. Someone tell me why we need 3 bears, 2 cows, 4 dogs, 3 snakes, and a dire wolf all hudled together? And I dont mean in one spot either, I saw shit like that all over the place. I cant help but think that has got to be a waste of resources on the server.
Also, where the hell are all the wandering healers? In my travels today, I did not see ONE. I got my ass owned by a shadow wyrm, which was very cool, but I had to run all the way to the desert to get rezed. There used to be a healer always around my house and now he's gone. He was my friend. Let him come back.

Re: Shard Publish
I haven't played this shard in a while; I think this change is actually quite nice since it brings back the whole PvM aspect of the game - It won't be like guys going out w/ tamers making 500k/day recalling each n every gazer/ele spot etc... In my opinion this change was good, it doesnt really disrupt anyone other than the people who really wanted easy gold.

Re: Shard Publish
Thanks so much Ryan, as a very avid PvMer, I love that there are plentiful amounts of spawns on all levels (Im a bard, and need two monsters to fight effectively at least) I love even more that solo pvp'ers will no longer be able to dungeon hop everywhere. As a side note will this make runes marked to lower level dungeons sell better? I was quite suprised when I hopped into Despise level 2 today. XD

Re: Shard Publish
I dont think people will be able to get enough players to take on 15 liches at the same time or 20 gargoyles. Thats jsut too many magic casting enemies. I went through some of the dungeons today and havent seen a single player anywhere. I think it was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay overdone. I did see some nice spots i do admit which will make gold farming even easier, but i hardly think this will brg players together. They are going to want to keep these rare new spots to themselves. Atleast hythloth level 4 still isnt overdone, i was expecting like 5 balrons with what i was seeing. Also alot of spots look very unproffessional. An example is fire dungeon. There is no mixing of monsters. Its just lich spawn fire ele spawn followed by fire snake spawn all looking liek they were jsut plopped there with no thought. (and all obviously from a single spawner).

Re: Shard Publish
Yeah, I think some of the stuff is really hard, but when you think about it, it will bring new life to the PvM endgame. Instead of sitting at brit bank or farming elder gazers, you can go out with some friends and do some hard, coordinated PvM against a real challenge.
