As it happens, I believe that it's a fun game. But complaining that it's pointless is like complaining that the night sky is dark. I mean, that's true, and all, but—it's supposed to be. P.S. You might also want to check out The Well-Tempered Sentence. |

We know (from the other thread that got locked) that many of the PvP players are still not happy with the changes. Sorry, guys, I know you are sick of hearing this ... however this is a first step. Bigger changes are coming, but bigger changes take more time and more people.
This patch is not a final solution, and I'd like you all to keep that in mind. We'd love to hear your constructive feedback on the changes (we've seen the actual complaints so many times, I think we know what they are ). I'm happy to read and pass on negative feedback, so long as it's constructive.
From me personally, I'd like to note that on a certain level I'm glad that the 'whiners' are still hanging around. I know that if the underlying PvP that you want to play was no good you would have left without saying a word; your complaints are based in the fact that you know there's a great game that you want to play but feel you can't get to without having to 'work' for it. We're working towards putting in place features that will address that and give you access to that great game. And, hopefully, we'll make the game even better along the way.

wow, really nice update that A-net have done. I like all the new changes that is going to help out with the skills grind... but it seems that most of the mission or quests update is for late in the game, i mean, im still in old ascalon and still got couple quests to do until i can move on..
Hehe.. can't wait to get some ale and get drunk!!
but first i need to get golds... LOTS of gold if it does cost 1 pla for ale!
Hehe.. can't wait to get some ale and get drunk!!

I could work in real life for 1 hour and have enough money to buy 5 pints of beer easy, maybe more if it's charr piss.
1 pint of beer costs nearly or more than 5 times as much as most armor pieces... perhaps if we gave them some plant fibers (hops) it would lower the price  |

Nice updates by AN.
My ONLY gripe is that I've now got to:
a) get some more Druid Leggings to benefit from the extra energy
b) infuse em
c) risk salvaging my Superior Expertise Rune from my current leggings! Sod's Law means I will end up getting 3 planks of wood

There were many people claiming it didn't happen at all (for anyone), or that it only happened to farmers. I'm fully aware that prior to this patch, some people were experiencing the bug and some were not.

Not bad, but not good either. Merely a band-aid patch

Is Markis in Iron Mines fixed now?
ManadartheHealer
I think so
Fingo
Well, this is what I get for not staying up late and ascending before the ####ing Wednesday update. The Doppelganger apparently isn' really your mirror self anymore, since it gets to use a Chaos Axe and Storm Bow that I don't have in inventory or in storage. How can this possibly be considered fair?
Jwh6913
the doppleganger always had the bow and the axe only thing the same is the copy of your set skill slots, and it uses the same skills you bring in the fight.
Dreamsmith
Yeah, the doppleganger mirrors you, but not your possessions -- it has its own set of equipment.
Iron Mines now ends when you kill Markis and his four Jade Armor guards. If you want to SoC something from him, just kill him first, or at least, don't kill him last.

Look at it this way, you can get these weekly updates that incrementally improve the game, or you can go the route of every other on-line game and wait months for a monstrous patch that "fixes" everything and then is bugged all to hell.
Yes, it's true the Doppelganger always had a Bow and Axe as it's wepaons(never specified which ones), it also has all attributes set to 15, which is why everything it does is at max amount.

My Monk with 715k XP received no retroactive skill points. It seems like I should've gotten at least 1 skill point with that much excess XP (nearly 600k past L20 marker).
Edit - I just went and killed some Blessed Griffons, and received 3 skill points after killing the first 3. Guess you have to earn some XP for the data to get re-calculated.
BTW, I notice no difference in the power of Blessed Griffons. I can still kill 10+ at a time. But there does seem to be some Auzure Shadow things hidden in there, which have Signet of Judgement... the knockdown can be dangerous if you have a whole mess of Griffs on ya.

LOL. Silly Aug, Alex Weeks said in the post you quoted that you have to kill something and get exp in order to gain those retroactive skills.
A.Net, wondreful job on yet another patch. Can't wait to get home from work tonight and log on to test it out.
