if that is the case, then that sucks

that is giving RP characters the shaft.

what about people who PVP, but only PVP using RP characters? now they get nothing useful to them for PVPing other than Fame.

replacing their PVP experience points with "faction" points that is useless to them is not very nice

all that does is force those with RP characters to go grind Fissure and Underworld to get more experience instead of having the choice to get that experience from winning in PVP

hmm, is any one able to get on. I realize that its only been about 15 mintues at this time but I am curious.

I'm also glad they increased minimum tomb sizes. No more 1 human teams that do absolutely nothing but annoy.

oh yes synced emotes!

i want to see that aeromancer's armor

PieXags · Jun 30, 2005, 12:05 AM // 00:05

Sweet, the amount of time it should take to earn those points is pretty damn equal to the amount of time to find those runes, get those skills, and what not.

Very well done. I pray now that PvP only players will stop with the tormenting threads about how it's so unfair that they can't unlock things. Unlocking through PvP is exactly what should've happened. Three cheers for Anet.

And I like that there's still several PvE fixes/updates. Just awesome, can't wait to see what more Anet has in store for us. (Like a giant PvP enviornment for some really fun massive battles...hint hint...c'mon...you know you want it)

Who knows? Maybe I'll log in now and we'll have favor of the Gods too!

Pyrthas · Jun 30, 2005, 12:07 AM // 00:07

Well, the 1000/1000 could be accurate. Remember, you have to get the minimum before you get the maximum.

No, if you'll read further down they explain it.

If you don't have a weapon upgrade, it cost 1k points to unlock it with minimal stats.
If you already have it unlocked, you can pay ANOTHER 1k to get the best possible stats for it.

So you've found plenty of insightful staff heads on your RP char with +1 energy. Pay 1k and it'll become +5 energy for your PvP chars.

And so on.

To reiterate:
1k to unlock an upgrade
Another 1k to maximize it's stats.

Oni No Arashi · Jun 30, 2005, 12:08 AM // 00:08

No, they say you have to do the minimum power ones FIRST then you can get the higher powered ones.

So say an insightful staff head, you get 1000 faction points, unlock the +1 and then with another 1000 points you could unlock a higher level version. But you have to have +1 before you work your way up to +5, they explain it in the rest of the description

Improved pets so that they have the equivalent of armor infusions.

Yay, my pet finally can do something against those nasty mussarts.

Love this patch in all aspects although I cant log on and try out new quests now.

Forscience · Jun 30, 2005, 12:10 AM // 00:10

I agre it isnt a typo they are trying to say that you need to get the first itteration of the upgrade for 1000 before you acquire the uber version.

in other words you wont need to get fortitude +15, 16, 17.... all the way to uber. You just get the first one and skip to the end.

bummer about the error 7 thing. I think this is the first universal problem A-Net has had since release. C'mon boys dont let me down

So has anyone found the new Eastern Frontier quest?

Looks nice, one of my pet peeves was having to collect a ton of stuff to see the "hidden bonuses" (if any) on the collector items. Not to mention that you get the full description even with the required items in inventory. Thumbs up on the interface changes.

I just sorry that "accurately and completely" doesn't mean we will be able to see if that Ascalon Bow acts like a shortbow, longbow, flatbow or whatever. Without extensive "field testing" and careful storage and handling it gets a bit confusing sometimes.

I love seeing "1 human teams". Very amusing and easy way to get your 1 extra fame
