Comprehensive Version Update Details (11/25)

[kisada]

seems like most of the lag was fixed, but npc and bazaar menus still seem pretty shitty, same with throwing items out.

did they ever mention anything about further improving npc/bazaar speeds?

[jacksj1]

Wow, gross. Haha. What's up with that? They've been pretty good about designing armor so far.

Yeah, you're right but going from :

i) the names of the items;

ii) the convention with other faction loot, and

iii) the fact these things are lvl 20 and need boar hide to repair


these items are upgraded through crafting. I'd guess the upgraded items look much cooler.



edit : Note that the Shepherd's Belt is a reward for lvl 20 Faction leves / from chest in Faction leves (I've been offered it three times across two characters), while the Chef's Belt and Apron are rewards from lvl 10 Fieldecraft leves.

I'm just hoping to see some confirmed recipes for shepherd's belt/chef's belt/chef's apron > vintage so I can hunt down some crafters or get my ranks up myself to upgrade them... I couldn't imagine the apron looking that much better even if it were cleaned up and no longer "stained."

l2/r2

Doesn't work for me.. out of curiosity what is your l2/r2 bound to?

[sruon]

It should be whichever key you assigned to CTRL/ALT Macros, since I'm almost sure my L1/R1 are working on menus.

[Jamison]

Doesn't work for me.. out of curiosity what is your l2/r2 bound to?

I was about to post that mine don't work either, and that it must be a bug or something (Xbox 360 controller) but I just realized they are backwards for me... I have to hit the left trigger to move to a tab to the right.

[Jojimbo]

I think it's just just Ctrl/Alt macros for tabs with controller.

Thanks for the screen~ But yeah, that still looks boring as shit unfortunately. What are the necessary ingredients/skill involved?

[miokomioko]

Oh god, lol. I definitely must have skimmed over that.

[Lucavi]

I like the aprons, especially when they come "standard equipped" with tools and utensils on them. I mean, seriously, what are you expecting, some tiger-skinned dalmatica of an apron?

Anything that gets me "into" the class I'm playing gets a +1 from me, and that chef's apron certainly gets me in a cooking mood.

[miokomioko]

Well, to be specific, the ladel/knife/salt&pepper is the Chef's Belt... The apron is just incredibly plain. I was expecting a bit more in it and less of a plain t-shirt with a rectangle of blue canvas tied around the waist.

Maybe I was just expecting a full apron with more detail/stitching.

either way, I am happy about it, it just looks like doodoo compared to the designs of most other gear in the game.

[Grey Jorildyn]

is that what you wear when you're cooking?

[Hyan]

Maybe I was just expecting a full apron with more detail/stitching.

That's saved for relic, bro.

[Kurokikaze]

Thats for end game when you're serving up some steaks yo... Can't expect to have a Chef's Apron made of dragon scales right out of the gate!

[Aratharn]

I think it's just just Ctrl/Alt macros for tabs with controller.

Makes sense as those are the only 2 I didn't bind to my PS3 controller.. thank you!

[Izzy]

So I still can't bind anything to ALT+(any key) or CTRL+(any key)?

All the new mobs are nice but I'm tired of having a train of 5-10 mobs following me around, walking in front of me, and in general being annoying as fuck while I'm trying to do a leve. I've died more times from mobs walking in front of me just as I gain steadfast in the last 2 days than I have in my entire history of playing this game.

Yeah I agree, I had to just quit using any AoEs period, sick of the repair costs. Another strange glitch me and a few of my friends of had is, all your actions are greyed out, so you cannot fight, heal or do anything without logging out and back in. It can even randomly happen mid fight. The other strange thing is, mobs will not attack you when this happens but you do gain exp if your party kills stuff.
