I don't know how typical I am but, because of the bizarre cooldown, I use Barrage in two modes. For landscape mobs, I treat it like a skill with a 6-second cooldown, so it is always available at that...

Discussing the removal of Barrage reminds me of the one-liner "Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, what did you think of the play?" I guess we didn't really need that big, induction-less attack that we...

Once again, we're considering changes that will make life more difficult, confusing, and inconvenient for noobs, causals, and solo questers in order to do something for group play. Blue hunters...

Most of us have parts of this large, complex, evolving game we'd rather not do. Fortunately, a kinmate summoned me to complete The Beacon of Eaworth. I wasted HOURS over multiple days to complete the...

My crafter Varmentor has sold over 22,000 vocation toolkits on Landroval over 8 years and would be happy to retire. Here are his observations:

Since tooklits became available for vocations at...

Not sure how you'd use it, but you can now swift stable from West Bree to Herne in Cardolan then to the Forsaken Inn. It eliminated a long ride to the Forsaken Inn on my route.

There are certainly more stories to tell. I've been hoping for some spin-offs. Young Bilbo? Better Call Sauron? Minas Tirith: The Next Generation?

For blue hunters, how about going back to limiting Barrage throughput by power usage (as originally implemented) and get rid of the crazy variable cooldown.

Can you put the current Yule festival in? People still need an official source for when it will end.

That is the usual ratio. There is much more use in the game for dwarf-iron than platinum, so giving jewellers more platinum makes more work for metalsmiths and weaponsmiths. The nodes randomly...

From the Office of Unintended Consequences in the Be Careful What You Wish For Department, I would observe that the restrictions of the current scheme have helped to tame an unavoidably intricate...

As a Blue hunter, I will limit myself to the singular largest annoyance, which is the bizarre cooldown for Barrage. Introduced as a way to keep Blue hunters from competing with Red in raid DPS, the...

Good point. Of course, players who haven't been looking at the Reward Track regularly won't see it, and some who do look at it don't always notice the timer.

The new reward track is scheduled to start on May 18th.

Since they were introduced six years ago, non-craftable dyes have been available during the four seasonal festivals. Each festival has four dyes and each year two are available for festival tokens...

Is there any prospect of reviving this valuable tool? I know it was/would be a lot of work. It has saved me many hours and nervous breakdowns over the years I have used it.

How are people planning...

A reason for this unusual behavior for Universal Solvents is that they are a recipe ingredient. If I do not have a high-tier crafter, I can buy the solvents and pass them to someone else who can make...

I have two characters waiting until the map is fixed to proceed to Deepscrave. It was too painful getting my first character through it. I have enough trouble navigating such multilevel areas when...

Warning for people (like me) who assumed things work the way they usually do:

Although Delver's Flickering Essence Boxes obtained as quest rewards are bound to account, when you extract an...

On Bullroarer, you were allowed to exceed the Ancient Script cap when you got the tokens for an old LI and it wouldn't prevent you from doing another one. While you are over the cap, you only lose...

I agree, which is why it should not count for much in the calculation. Simply playing the game will fill up the IXP, so the arithmetic should assume that inevitability. Tiers and other enhancements...

I understand the numbers are not final and you're changing the name of the process. However, the current arithmetic for what you get seems wrong.

The amount of IXP in the imbued LI has a large...

The quest A Fondness for Festivity (Intro) and later tiers is supposed to auto-bestow (if you don't have it) when you take the daily In Celebration of Midsummer.

I appreciate your past and ongoing diligence. Having a complete and precise schedule of events is a significant quality of life feature.

Those Scrolls of Empowerment with max tiers 35 and 44 can be used on the Legendary Worlds since they are only at level 100 and were not given the same free tiers that normal servers have.
