Re: Go All to Pieces—The Mog Tablet Quest Unearthed! (05/07/2009)

Wow, not only is that good news....but SE directly posted it on a forum to quell bitching when they could have just let us wait the week to find out on our own.

Does this mean they'll start communicating more?

I hope not, because that would mean they only respond to that kind of player reaction instead of simply answering what needs to be answered without having to be coerced into doing so.

But this is SE we are talking about, and they have shown their S&M tendencies time and again.

Re: Go All to Pieces—The Mog Tablet Quest Unearthed! (05/07/2009)

Noticed something interesting.

Was doing some muling in preparation for the mog bonanza. First logged onto Vyuru, then sent some stuff to my mules. I picked up the flee effect from the Kupowers while logging out. When I logged into my mule who did not have Signet on, nor had I been on her since this event started, she had the flee effect (whatever it's called) on her as well. In fact all of my mules had it as soon as I logged in.

So it seems to me that this might just cover your entire account, and not just the one character.

I spent a lot of time soloing shield and club skillups on pld just prior to kupowers being implemented and I can say they're definitely coming a lot faster now. Maybe 50% more. I have to say I'm pretty pissed off about this as it completely defeats the purpose of defensive skillups for me.

Any boost to learning weapon skillups is welcome to me as I'm currently levelling up ranger and marksmanship and archery are not only slow to level but expensive.

Sure wish Guard and Staff would skill at a decent pace . _ .

Re: Go All to Pieces—The Mog Tablet Quest Unearthed! (05/07/2009)

Last night in Dyn, we got 22 pieces of AF and 4 Montiont Silver pieces (and for same dam reason 4 BLU hands dropped, but I got Scout's Bracce, yay.) This was over a 3 hour period in Dyna-Sandy.

We had two thfs in the area, neither had TH4, but it sure seems that signet kicked in quite nicely last night.

dweee~

This is SE ... when they get out the nerf bat, they tend to swing for the fences. It was too easy to get XP in offensive battles with no mobs, but they have to understand that no XP for long stretches of time means nobody goes there...

FTFY. I still say the real problem was in the dungeon areas, particularly Eldieme. The fortification points were placed so far away from each other and from the mob pathing, which usually meant fort bashing in Eldieme with orcs in the middle of the room. It was much harder to sneak a fort bash in the outdoor areas, with the possible exception of Grauberg's enormous tower.

More like swinging for the bleachers.

Yup. I found out Tuesday night while doing some AF stuff for one friend and WS NM for another. Quickening ftw.

Re: Go All to Pieces—The Mog Tablet Quest Unearthed! (05/07/2009)

As the next round is approaching (on playonline says 8-24 hours after the first ones were found), and they are going to be a bit harder to find (I may have time after work), I was just wondering if anyone had actually found one of the tablets on their server and if so, what was the second prize that came with it?

About 8 were just discovered on Fenrir within five minutes of the first being found. A LS member discovered the Highlands one and was rewarded with a pair of Talaria boots, kind of like suped-up Sprinter Shoes.
