DISCUSSION: 1/20/14 Version Update

[Ophannus]

Guess they're working their way up to level 99 gear. They started with iron scale and chainmail now they're on beak jerkin and justacorps. Maybe next patch they'll Darksteel harness set, scoprion harness set, carapace set. Then they'll do lvl 70 sets, so errant, coral harness, gavial. Then the patch after maybe ilvl sky god gear and ilvl abjuration sets and expansion sets like Barone and Sha'ir.

[Prothescar]

BST pet boost seems pretty substantial, seeing about double damage from before out of Sweeping Gouge.

[Modoru]

ilvl enkidu gear sounds nice.

The time/day RoE objective table was very disappointing.
I actually was hoping it wouldn't be so hardcoded on a schedule and more random with more variety to make it somewhat fun to find a camp based on the target objective. Instead they go the simple route... I don't even know why I keep playing this game and setting myself up for such disappointment on each version update

k BST pet increase is a straight 2.3x multiplier on Ready moves. Enjoy the 2.5k TP move Tulfaires.

But now you can't AoE mobs with it and have them ignore you!!!

What ready moves actually do enough dmg to justify the time it takes to use them!?!

Looks like all they did was rearrange it so you wouldn't have 2 on the same day leading to the whole can't complete thing

Ones with debuffs mostly, but Molting Plumage is the strongest one that BST can use now. Plus, could totally get 12k back heels with some clever use of Unleash!

[Treize Kordero]

The Aetosaur, Haruspex, and Shabti gear from RoE or new crafted gear?

[Sekundes]

So on RoE seals. It says obtain seals now? Was it always worded that way? Do you personally have to get them now or does it popping in the pool count? Or am I just second guessing a poor translation.

[Aramaic]

Just killed King Arthro with quest on. Non Repeatable and only obtained exp and sparks. No REM items.

How'd you determine that? 1k needles (or similar?)

[Prothescar]

magic attacks and observed damage on physical ones. ratio for pets goes so high (primary randomizer 4.0) and level adjustment helps so much that there's very little variance in physical attacks which makes it easier to observe on those and link to the easily noticeable boost on magical ones.

[Foldypaws]

Continuing my "Let's look at how pets do on Blanched Mandragora" tests, iLvl 115 Garuda seems to have had her melee damage doubled. (went from ~100 average per hit to ~200).

BP damage seems higher, though not twice as high. Maybe a 50% boost? Pred. Claws is random as all get out anyway.

crafted

[Nameless]

does the boost make BST a option for stuff like AA normal and above?

BP damage wasn't directly enhanced, so any damage increase you're getting is due to the base damage boost.

Papesse, go get new dmg shots on ADL!

Wont know until 7pm eastern tonight when it comes up again. And before the title was obtain seals or something like that and then the description was obtain beastmen seals or kindred crests. And no it's pool though not sure if it's whole alliance of just pt unless they changed it. And yes it's probably poor translation. Either that or we really are supposed to Vanquish "planetoids"
