Great update but it's broken already I think.
I was in LA salvaging some weapons that I had stored up, all was going well until I logged out to swap some stuff from another character to salvage, I logged back on with my ranger to salvage the gear I just put in storage and tried to salvage 2 weapons and got iron ingots both times, the new options screen didn't even apear

Also around the same time people were starting to complain about the same thing and also that the storage guy was taking money but not giving the upgrade.
Anyone else having probs?

You don't even need to be holding a directional key. If you hold "w", for instance, then let go and immediately try to cast a spell, the same thing will happen.

Yeah same thing happened to me

Okay, but what about the camera? Does anyone know if there's a way to turn off being faced to the person I am casting on? Since the update when I cast a heal, the camera automatically turns me to face the person. This makes kiting impossible for me.

For example, before the update i could cast troll and tap up, but I needed to hold it in order to cancel the skill. After the update the key controls are EXTREMELY senstive. As in if my character still has motion and I cast troll the spell is canceled without warning... I can breathe on up and lose my meteor shower.

This is a huge issue with me. Please fix these sensitivity issues.

I fully agree.
It's downright ridiculous now.
Please, please please fix asap!

:beg:

EDIT: I jumped the gun. Didn't read Alex's post. Sorry about that.

I also agree with the camera changing to the target you are casting on. it's weird. also fix please...

I was changing template during cooldown to AB match start and result was empty skill bar. However I tried to change it again and after it addded new template it cleared new one also.

If you used a normal salvage kit then thats why. The options only appear when using an expert salvage kit, as that is the only kit capable of salvaging anything other than materials.

anaya · Oct 26, 2006, 12:56 PM // 12:56

A superior salvage kit (a.k.a the only worthwhile salvage kit) will also do the trick.

RTSFirebat · Oct 26, 2006, 01:11 PM // 13:11

That is not a bug.

Its the same reason in some places and cases you can't change single skills while the countdown timer for a mission or PvP is about to start.

Just my best guess

Ranger Rog · Oct 26, 2006, 01:34 PM // 13:34

I did use an expert kit, in fact I didn't even have a standard kit on that character at the time.

Angel Develin · Oct 26, 2006, 01:40 PM // 13:40

It works for me and it's not allways 100% that you could get the upgrades out,
I just salvaged a chaos axe and got zealous upgrade out and i still have the axe

Clord · Oct 26, 2006, 01:45 PM // 13:45

Yeah but they can seriously disable it during countdown so mistake can't happen. GW let me change template during countdown, clearing skill bar but not replacing it. I know that you are not supposed to be able but I can't mind read when party leader press mission start button 1 millisecond before I change build. It is not right if pressing template change clear your skill bar when is countdown already going. Just put message like "Can't change skill bar".

Ninjatek · Oct 26, 2006, 01:51 PM // 13:51

I don't see that it's a big deal at all. If you don't want your action cancelled, don't press a key. You guys act as though you can't modify your playing style. Get over it.

Ranger Rog · Oct 26, 2006, 02:13 PM // 14:13

It is 100% that you get your selected mod, it's the chance the weapon will be destroyed when you salvage that is the gamble.
I didn't even get the option screen to choose my mod when I used the kit, it just salvaged into iron as if I was using a standard kit or if I was unlucky with an expert kit pre-update.
It was working perfectly,I salvaged 7 mods from 5 weapons, then I logged in and out to switch stuff around characters and it stopped working when I tried again with the same character using the same kit.

I don't know if it's on purpose or if it's just a bug so I report it. In the ss you see the stonehart (used to be some kind of pink) amongst other divine symbols. Other symbols you see there are Byzzr benedictum (used to be light green) and Incetol's focus (used to be dark green).

Gun Pierson · Oct 26, 2006, 02:41 PM // 14:41

They keep the original colour when I equip them. This makes me think it's a bug otherwise they would be blue in bag and in hand.

I dont understand one thing about the update

->Quote from Update
New Salvage/Upgrade System
If you salvage an item to extract a magical component, there is now a 75 percent chance that the base item will not be destroyed.

Title System Changes
The Treasure Hunter and Seeker of Wisdom titles now confer a benefit to players who earn them. For each rank of either title earned, the chance of an item not being destroyed when salvaging a magical upgrade component is increased by 3 percent from a base of 50 percent.
->End Quote

I dont understand..... base % is 50% or 75% or double check?
