DAT Mining Discussion (2011-05-09)

Possibly related?

Cat's Eye A particularly rare and radiant variety of alexandrite, named for its resemblance to the piercing eye of a tiger.

Additional equipment items obtainable with Imperial Standing have been added

Buyable alexandrites, if you have any imperial standing left, perhaps?

[Cantih]

I'm kinda fucking torn on the new THF set

Cuauhtli over Raider+2 (assuming NQ head & HQ+2 Body)
Lose: -2%Haste -4DEX (-3%TA, Conspirator, AF3 Set Bonus reduced)
Gain: +6STR/AGI +5Acc Dual Wield Sphere

It's the TA loss that's the hardest. Maybe conspirator too, though I don't think anyone knows exactly what the augmented effect is, let alone if the gear needs to stay equipped through the ability duration.

[Rocl]

everyone talk about dynamis. i'm really curious if the new NMs/Bosses will be HARDMORE and what the reward will be for killing them. ;\ i have to look through the items now to see if theres a plausible reward augh

[Cantih]

everyone talk about dynamis.

I feel sad for the Dynamis-Bums site. Except for the Dreamlands zones, their zone data has gone from a resource to essentially a history page.

[Cail]

LoL, Awesome. Ghost Busters ftw.

The Stay puff Marshmellow man, Gatekeeper/Key master, and the Painting guy (IIRC?). Hilarious references.

I love this company some time.

The best thing I've ever read about this game

[TacoTaru]

Has there been any info dug out about where to start Voidwatch/where to pick up the new hourglass?

Pashow_S for Voidwatch. idk about hourglass, I'll look for that now.

[Karbuncle]

The best thing I've ever read about this game

Looking at it, Looks like its all references to the first Movie.

Zymotic Zuulie = Demi-god Zuul (Gatekeeper?)

Gozer the Gozerian (Key master?) = Grievous Gozar

Slimey Simeon - Likely a reference to "Slimer", the Green ghost.

Puffy Marshmallow = Obvious reference to the Giant Stay-puff Marshmallow >___>

-------------------

Mog Bonanza Kupons...

Empyrean Armor
Empyrean Weapon
Mythic Weapon
Relic Weapon.


"Cat's Eye" is R/ex, I doubt it has anything to do with Alexandrite at this point now. Since those Kupons above look like the Relic/Mythic/Empyrean "Weapon" slips for Rank 1 Bonanza.
(Edit: At least not a "10,000" piece like some think. maybe a new "patch" that gives 100+?)
(Edit2: or maybe it is... I just don't think its from Bonanza like the guy earlier mentioned).

(S) IDK, Shadow?

You missed it when we discussed Cat's Eye-- it's a 30k Alexandrite piece. The .dat files justify it as such:

It's more than likely from Bonanza because it's infeasible that any event/mob will drop a 30k piece. It also wouldn't make sense at all to trade in an Alexandrite and forfeit any other turned in Alexandrite progress with out being a 30k piece.

I mean, unless SE ninja'd it and the total Alex cost needed is much much less than 30k now.

[arus2001]

I'd be kinda sad if they were all ghosts. Puffy may be a Doomed, Slimey a Ghost, Zuulie a Hound, and maybe Gozar a skeleton or vampyr. Dunno.

[Necronus]

Problem is Slimey Simeon doesn't seem to be the painter guy (who's not even a ghost) or the painting (Vigo) .... It's probably just Slimer.

Edit: Yay, I was slowest

[Cantih]

Pashow_S for Voidwatch. idk about hourglass, I'll look for that now.

Dev notes said the new hourglass is from the beastman stronghold gobs.

Yah. I did miss that

but I'm stepped away for a while to play minecraft, sucks i missed that topic.

If this was right, I would Do that BCNM Daily just for lulz.

[pnavaja]

No one knows the auguments you can put on sky gear and abjurition gear??? browsed all 20 pages and the dat mining links and cant see those.

[Rocl]

Dev notes said the new hourglass is from the beastman stronghold gobs.

Good because going through more dialog tables was gonna kill me.

[Tortalius]

Augments aren't part of the usual data fields, so we have no clue. This is the same as when magian stuff comes out and we have no idea what the new weapons will look like.

[JustaWAR]

Is there any info on +2 items in older abyssea zones?

[Sho]

Is there any info on +2 items in older abyssea zones?

Won't be any loot infos until people actually go out and kill older stuff then post about it.

[TummieGaruda]

Not sure if you guys remember this picture, but I would guess that when the "Sphere" effect is active (Ensphere), your weapon glows

[Darkmagi]

That sword just seems to have an aura, I don't think sphere effect is related. Look at the equipment box.
