Born on this day in 1943, Wallace Shawn is the beloved actor who has appeared (or voiced) characters in films ranging from My Dinner with Andre to Vizzini in the Princess Bride, to Rex the dinosaur in Toy Story. And of course, Grand Nagus Zek.

 

 

 

 

Notes for the week: 

 

Rachel Ice Dungeon Turn in Event departs.

 

Increased EXP, Drops and VIP events depart

 

Halloween Quest leaves

 

We're adding the PVP room with a NPC that prevents you from entering if you have HP/SP consumable items in your inventory.  

 

We've run into the issue in our testing that the no consumable PVP NPC would not be able to check carts for consumable items, so we are trying a map type item restriction for this week. This will affect the guild PVP and our custom map. To get to the custom pvp map, speak to the NPC in the north side of Izlude. 

 

New November Groove Pack 

 

Ongoing Projects: 

 

Thanksgiving Quest

 

PVE Experience improvement project

 

New Novice training area

Disappointed that MVPs/God items are allowed. :(

Please consider adding Yellow/Red Gems to the Mail Annex NPC. Right now they're obtainable through exchanging Blue Gems in Payon but its pretty slow/annoying.

 

It'd also be nice if you can look at getting some of the hats that were in various boxes over the last year or two and havent made a reappearance back.

Please leave titans in for a couple weeks, titans going away at the same time as an exp event will really hurt the new players on the server.

Can you do some research into the current drop rates from the Incarnations of Morroc please. During this event we've killed roughly 1400 of each of the three non ghosts and 700 ghosts (all with VIP and 50% with HE gum) while not actually getting any of the rarer items (Diablos Ring/Mant, Skin of Ventus or Cursed Hand). We've found all of the items previously over quite a lot more kills in the last few months (except Cursed Hand, I'm not sure they actually exist).

 

The drop tables are here:

 

http://db.irowiki.or...ster-info/1918/

http://db.irowiki.or...ster-info/1919/

http://db.irowiki.or...ster-info/1920/

http://db.irowiki.or...ster-info/1921/

 

I'm aware that people asked about Diablos RIng drop rate and it was mentioned that it was card rate, is this the same for the other rarer drops? For example if you look at the Angels, we've found 8-10 Sacred Missions at 0.11% and zero Diablos Mants at 0.04%. Or Golems, 20 or so Cross shields at 0.16% and zero Skins at 0.04%.

 

We're either the unluckiest people in the world or something is off here.

I agree with the sentiment on ice titans, while I don't personally get any use out of the event, I think pretty well anyone who isn't well established on the server is playing there at the moment, and without something going in to replace them it would really discourage people.

It's actually very newbie friendly since the only role you need to be decently geared in your party is the mobber.

It's also pretty nice for new players to learn about basic partying behaviour (things like not attacking the mobs until they reach the tank...)

not really, no. i mean, a level 40 thief and acolyte using npc gears are probably not going to be partying it up in ID3, but compared to other dungeons of that difficulty, a couple of level 70 characters with not that great gear could do well in ID3. there is also greater variety for classes that can play and kill there, especially when you compare it to AL3. when they had the AL3 event going on, there were really only several necessary classes (LK or paladin to pull, sniper, scholar, high priest, and minstrel). if you didn't play those classes, unless you had friends or were in a guild, you probably didn't get into a party. and you needed better gear for AL3 than ID3 imo.

 

i've tried going to ID3 several times during the event and honestly the large standing parties ruin that map for people solo'ing or for people trying to do small walking parties. so even though this event is not benefiting me, i think it should stay in to help people get levels.

. I'd like some research on this as am approaching the same quantity of kills there and if this is serverly nerfed drops I'd like to be aware of that. As this will let me know if it's even worth playing here also whe. Are we getting new world
