Such good changes. I still hope they plan on adding a stricter penalty for dungeon deserters. (Though I haven't had any tanks do that in a very long time) Also, the vote to kick when you're not the leader thing would be great too. Hope that comes out soon.

Oh...and if T14 is crafted, I feel better about leveling crafting. So a certain Sorc and myself have nice clothes later~

**Gulkeeva** · 2012-07-07 16:13

oh god.. gvg during nexus will suck ;/

had one earlier... went from dozens of little red monster dots to an entire radar red of dots... at 1-2 fps it wasn't fun O_o

**madpersian** · 2012-07-07 17:17

Take the fight to the edge. My frame rate there is around 10-15 which is good enough for fighting.

**niwaar** · 2012-07-07 18:24

Woot more UI features... oh wait the UI already cuts FPS in half (or more)... How about fixing the UI and not giving us our fricking ping time and time played on the UI to create more UI lag?

Im actually quite disappointed by these "notes". Things like the zerker fix which was pretty much a "hotfix" in Ktera is taking over 2 months to implement in NA? Seriously? I dont play a zerker but this does not bode well for other hotfix type issues in NA.

I'm kinda hoping any 'performance' updates will just be ninja'd in. I don't recall seeing a single note related to performance fixes since retail release.

So on Jagged Coast there are now about 4-5 pages of GvG declarations against Wicked for setting up an alt to feed kills. I like to see this kind of in house justice. No need for GMs to take action.

Yep, Wicked pissed everyone off doing that.

**Katlan** · 2012-07-09 02:19

Seems like Kotaku and massively have posted articles about GvG cheating and how badly its been implemented. EME really has to take some action about this because its terrible press. if IGN posts something (even though its lolIGN), it will be a shit storm for EME to try and clean up

oops... made a typo. supposed to say "easy to obtain" not "each to obtain" in one of the boxes.

Things of note: Both the Shandra Manaia and Iron Badge Set has special stats that gives a chance to stun target and a chance to lower skill cooldown. The Iron Badge set requires items from Shandra Manaia Dungeon, Harvesting, BG credit item, Agnitor credit item, Normal and BAM drops from Argon areas. (some of the ingredients are bind on pickup)

To quote Minea.

"Using another guild composed of alternate characters to farm GvG points for the vanarch election is not an acceptable way to become a vanarch and we take this matter seriously. We are investigating this issue and will take appropriate action."

To add further clarify, we are going to continue to iterate on the GvG system and plug holes where needed. I have seen many good ideas of how to 'fix it' but none are bullet proof. In the meantime we are going to take action and reset points to 0 if you are kill trading with alts.

Not really seeing what this "house justice" equates to when it consists of everyone lining up to PVP them. So they'll wind up spending more time in immune quest hubs. So what?

I never thought I'd see the day where I'd actually want less rules when it came to PVP servers, but here it is, finally. Kinda hard for you to exact any retribution when much of the area that level 60's will actually be in are immune to PVP. I suppose you could gank people while they're farming, but eh...

EME is doing something, though, so we'll see what's what soon enough.

**madpersian** · 2012-07-09 19:27

You don't need to be so cynical about everything. We got plenty of kills on them when they tried to do dailies or pretty much anything. See our GvG win for proof (not sure when it'll go through but we had over 35 kills). I've made plenty of them who were about to start dailies on ZF think better and go to another zone.

People don't want to spend all day in safe zones. I know one or two people quitting the guild today. I'm sure more will be quitting soon.

They've already stopped farming kills and fallen to third place (possibly out of shame).

I know our guild is essentially going to treat them as kill on sight. Wicked won't be around for too long.

Glad to see the Iron Badge set can be crafted, I like the look of it a lot. At least all my armor smithing wont be a complete waste!

**Senji** · 2012-07-10 07:27

Required crafting mats translated anywhere? Curious if the price is gonna tank and should just dump fanesteel now.

**Jackyl** · 2012-07-10 09:02

I will post the mats in a bit. Breakfast first!

Iron Badge Greatsword

By the way, the set may be better translated as Iron Captain or Iron Weaponmaster Set. 'Touch of iron will' is most likely the special stat that grants chance to stun/lower skill cooldown.

Each item also requires a nice chunk of vendor materials like most other crafted items. I just didn't include them in the chart since it's not important. The Red Argon Armor Shard is said to have a very low drop rate (1 in 10 hours of farming Argon BAMs). Those argon mobs are going to be contested hardcore!

Will be interesting to see Shandra's Feather prices...

Edit: Power of Arborea = Essence of Arborea.
Edit: Final crafted items are (Cannot trade/store)
