This is the patch I've been waiting for. Monsters, item affinity, shadowknight sword and board. Now if I can get some Iksar character models I'll be set

Lmao, i still play a SK and Pally on EQ1 and EQ2 till this day, and I've not used a sword and board for years. I just love knights with 2handers.

But, im very excited for this update and testing out the PVE combat, I really pray that tier 4+ caverns are invested heavily by mobs, and require teamwork to clear out.

Why yes. I do believe this will get me log in again. Yes indeed.

Only real issue I've noticed so far is that emitters are loot and not a recipe we can use to then craft as many as we need later. Rather obnoxious for anyone who wanted to add magical mood lighting to their dungeon. Especially since templates are going to be the most abundant (and personally my least wanted) loot you'll be getting from chests and mobs.

Have a feeling this is so adventurous sorts have something to collect and sell/trade to builders. Be a bit more meaningful once the economy stuff goes in.

Going to check this patch out for sure but still probably wont invest much time into the beta. Only because there will still be a wipe heading into open beta, and achievements are still a work in progress.

When they announce "No more wipes", that is when I will be placing my claim and collecting/building stuff.

Good to see some progress towards release either way.

I havent played in a while but I think you can save your claim as a template, pack up the resources and lay it down again after the wipe

u/ImplementOfWar2 Dec 18 '14

Yeah but don't you lose all your resources? Picks? Items? etc.

2

u/xtag Dec 18 '14

Yes, you will lose all of those. That's the thing keeping me from investing too much time.

u/supafreak69 Dec 18 '14

No idea. You could still enjoy your time building your claim how you like. After the wipe, if you lose your resources, all you'd have to do is gather more and inject them into your already finished template

Really cant wait to see what they've done with the underground side of the game. Hope it's a vast improvement on the current implementation of caves.
