[Gokulo]

Oh god I'm getting totally confused >.< So I was right they forgot to put the new server there

[BlackheartX]

The difficulty has been risen and you cannot do them as easily on low levels now

Not sure where you got this from.

[mastamind]

The duh is on you.


And I'm downloading the latest patch by torrent at 7bytes per second. Bring on the seeds!

Did anyone notice that shield is actually tied to the sentinel class (from the dats) now?

Personal bruises? I'm of course talking in general here. Some mobs seem to be harder than they were before.

[BlackheartX]

the recipe is level zero armorer or somthing ( never failed), mats sold by the NPCs in Uldah ( doesdornn, allenaure). your limited by earth and fire shards you have, but every fucking mob drop those it seems.

WTS some SHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

I noticed this too. Sentinel seems like a pretty weak class if all it has are a few shield skills, though.
My guess is it isn't really a standalone class and they simply renamed the shield rank to be more consistent with the other weapon classes.

Core has the PAX presentation up. (the game runs crappy even for them rotfl )

The rage in the comments section is lol. Good find would lawl again.

[Lucavi]

There will be plenty of rage everywhere come launch day.

[BlackheartX]

Yeah there will be however, not sure how much it's going to matter.

[Hyan]

Well, I think the servers we have available now are going to be enough for a long time.

Not unless they seriously refine some of that network code. Even the one chocobo servers are SLOW as fuck.

Late to the hardware mouse discussion, but did somebody make a patch for it? Where can it be found?

I'm not sure if this has been said or not, but I'm 99% positive there's a cap of 520 skill points per mob.

Notice how I didn't get that on the very last hit.
