There can be to much of a good thing, my opinion you want to keep these weekly. Having one every 2-3 days dilutes how good you guys are at this, and the messages you are sending out. I would just stick with 1 every 7 days, even if it’s made a little longer.

Breaking weapons for low dura isn't something that needs to be 'fixed' - its how the game has always been and if you don't take care of your stuff it will break.

Obviously you guys are 90% melee so I can see its something you see as really important but basically it's just another buff for afk clicklock archers which the game definitely doesn't need

I agree with pikutin on this one....
The podcasts were good at the start as you spoke about the game, gvw, pk etc.
But I feel like you are now using the wide audience as a platform to try and benefit yourselves.
Haven't heard any discussions about benefitting mages? Like the introduction of 4th staff.
I doubt you will as This doesn't benefit your character

They specifically mentioned these weren't even their ideas...why don't you volunteer to go on and talk if you want to hear about mage stuff? They're making the platform available to EVERYONE.

Besides the fact that what benefits them will benefit everyone. They said in the cast that they have mage character also, I'm sure they're just as eager for things like 4th mage auras...again, why not make the suggestion rather than trying to turn this into another flame thread?

In response to pik

Saying “its how the game has always been” in 2018 20+ years after it was designed is just well...daft.

Thats like saying “leave con as it is i.e esoma” because thats how its always been

Or

Leave evasion how it was on esoma because thats how its always been...

Things are different for a reason now because it makes the game better.

Am sure when the game was designed they didnt think there would be items in game that have litrally taken nesrly 4 years to make and can still be broken the same as a tbow hitting the dummy.

This game has had 100’s of improvments from “the waynit always was” because it makes the game better.

This idea is thr idea of the community so they should be listed to especially when ideas only add to the game so please think twice before you bluntly shut great ideas down without a valid reason why this would not add to the game or improve it.

I meant that in response to the comments in that video about isylver needing to ‘fix’ items breaking. It isn’t a fix as it’s how it’s supposed to be, it would just be a buff.

There are a million new ideas put forward over the years people are passionate about, don’t be upset if yours don’t automatically get put through ;p

I agree, this isn’t a fix. It’s a good idea but it doesn’t need changing. Plenty of items have broke due to not paying attention. It’s the owners fault no one else’s ‘or the games. If your daft enough to still be using your 3 arrows a second bow under 100recoil then you deserve it to break :(

Under 100 dura**

There isn't a need to make a weapon "un-usuable". If a weapon breaks, if it YOUR responsibility. You have decided that there is something more significant than checking your weapon durability, that is your choice. Surely if you have a +5,+6,+7,+8 item you would be more self-aware of the item's durability? "it's not fair for the other players who have put hours upon hours, hours hours hours" -- Yes, it is fair if you have decided that you are too lazy to check the durability of your bow that has taken "hours upon hours". Though, i'd like to say that your idea about making the durability messages appear more frequently rather than the last 10 - I agree.


I'd also like to add that rocky's build is different to anyone else, you can't use him as a representative to reflect the ideas of "other" mages with different builds. To say that introducing 4th staff aura would be "game-breaking" is completely mind blowing to me. Dan has said that even IF the 4th staff aura was going to be introduced, it would be an even more nerfed version than the current version.

Also, in any given PvP situation you will find mages being constantly handicapped mainly due to the fact that they CAN'T CAST. You said "rocky will be un-killable with PD", he's a mage not a support character stop acting as if mages are this superior being . The point of a mage is to cast, not tank hits - that's a tanks job. On the topic of casting, you will NEVER see a mage prosper in a 1v1 with an archer. Why? Because they can't do what they are designed to do - cast.

EDIT : I did not see SURFANDTURF'S post - he posted his during the process of me writing this blob of whatever
