Rift: Random Complaint Thread

**Alderaan** · 2011-09-03 17:37

Ran into one with 12k hp that was holding 6 of us from capping Codex while his entire team rez'd and ran back.

**Alderaan** · 2011-09-03 22:20

Stick one chloro/lock at every point in Codex and proceed to win.

**Raen Ryong** · 2011-09-04 13:56

They need to fix that

Mage as a whole is very overpowered at the moment if played properly; luckily for us most of the Mage community are retards... except that Chloro/lock is stupidly easy to play

**Syntex** · 2011-09-05 03:29

Eradicate spam on chloro lock brings them down from god status but it still takes 2-3 people to kill them. Good thing I just got my mage to 50 :D

I've gotten kind of bored with Rift. :/ My guild disbanded last week, although I was growing kind of bored a couple weeks before that anyway. I think this is the end of the line for me. D:

Nothing in 1.5 so far appeals to me. And I'm actually pretty upset over what they're doing to clerics.

**Raen Ryong** · 2011-09-12 11:56

What are they doing to clerics? I haven't seen anything major.

**Alderaan** · 2011-09-12 12:01

I'm assuming the crit nerf unless there's something else i missed.

Nightfall disbanded?

**Pyree** · 2011-09-12 12:18

Yeah, the changes to crit-based procs are what I'm upset about. I'm more upset over what it means spec-wise than the changes themselves. They're trying to phase out hybrid builds entirely, which takes all the fun out of builds, imo. As it stands, 1.5 will make it so the best build for warden, sentinel, shaman, and inquisitor are 51 point builds. Add this onto cabalist, druid, and purifier already basically requiring 51 point builds and we're left with no room for creativity in our builds outside of icar builds. At this point they may as well just take away the entire soul system and call each soul a separate class. The entire build-a-class soul system, which they have always been gloating about, is dead for clerics.

Serendipity 3/3:
You have a 25% when you heal to reduce the cast time of your next heal by 1.5 seconds. The chance is increased by 0.6% per point spent in the Sentinel soul above 26.

Corporal Punishment 5/5:
Your Life-based and Death-based damaging abilities have a 14% chance to increase the damage of your Life-based and Death-based abilities by 15% for 10 seconds. The chance is increased by 1.2% per point spent in the Inquisitor soul above 26.

Lust for Blood:
Your melee attack abilities have a 15% chance to cause you to deal an additional 30% damage with your next Physical ability. This chance is increased by 1% per point spent in the Shaman soul above 21 points.

Overflow:
Your heals have a 15% chance to get the ally Overflow for 15sec. The next time they take damage, they receive healing equal to your Wisdom. The chance is increased by 1% per point spend in the Warden soul above 21 points.

And yeah Neo, Nightfall is done now, was made official last week. Too many key people have grown tired of the game, either just flat out bored with raiding now or upset about the direction that Trion is going. After these cleric changes were announced, we spoke with a dev contact about them and were told that the devs are trying to get people to start going 51 point builds only. This was the final nail in the coffin for a majority of the members.

Guild still exists and most members are probably still hanging out in it, but we're done raiding.

**Aidin** · 2011-09-12 13:16

My guild has gone down the same path, Last week we had 4 long term members including an officer decide to quit Rift. I'm also thinking the same thing you are about clerics, The classes used to be fun to build and play.. but now you play a 51p.

Oh well, GG Trion, Was a fun short run.

**Melena** · 2011-09-12 13:51

So we figured out our threat issue with Zilas. For some reason our second tank in a warlord build, despite doing nothing, no abilities, no autoattacks, no nothing, our main tank would not generate threat properly. We had him go a different tank spec for adds and all of a sudden our main tank has no issues. WTF.

**Aidin** · 2011-09-12 16:44

Hmm, we've always just used one of our cleric tanks for adds and warrior on zilas. DOL from cleric tank helps us sometimes only need 2 healers.

**Melena** · 2011-09-12 17:06

Yea, our cleric tank emo quit, so it's either another warrior tank or have our crazy cabaltist tank. We decided we'd rather have crazy aoe

Now if only we can get 2-3 more solid recruits i'd be happy.

Yeah, I'm not really happy about it either, or having to regear because of Trion's fuckups with crit. I'm not sure I'm going to quit because I do enjoy the raid content in the game, but I've been spending more time in EQ2 again and although it has its own set of issues, I prefer the setting and there's always plenty for me to do, whereas I'm at the point where I only log on for raids in Rift.

**AidenCarby** · 2011-09-13 19:11

Sad to hear Pyree, you were always awesome :<

**nekura** · 2011-09-14 23:31

Looks like Trion won't be completely shitting on hybrid Cleric builds. Yay!

Also, LOL:

ABOUT FUCKING TIME.

Seriously, I can't wait to go on the forums and say the same shit that's been said to us for the past 2 months+ when we complained.

"Rogues are OP they need a nerf now! This is bullshit!"

"Seems you're just bad, I hear all the bads rolled warriors and you're just one of them" ect ect

Gonna feel so good man. Now just to get my rogue to R6. 100k prestige to go!

Yeah, the recent changes are an improvement over what they were planning before. I'm definitely glad they decided to let hybrids actually work still! It's still a slight nerf, but not as bad as what they were originally planning.

**Melena** · 2011-09-15 12:13

The reactive changes are causing massive QQ in the warrior forums.
