    Default No 'Glyph of the Big Top' set bonus?

    I just completed it,






    But I'm not sparkling. Is this a bug? Not implemented yet?

    I'm disappointed because I think the Big Top series is a better choice for a bear than Strongman's (which is a confirmed set, Alwaysdtf has one).

    Would love for a dev to confirm, yes or no, or not yet. Spent my last few days farming for this (thanks to a few awesome friends for great deals), so it'd be a big bummer if it won't work.

    I'm not hopeless yet, I believe this is a bug (until dev can confirm it's not). I'm refusing to believe that the best set intended for bears has no set

    There was a bug with the dex items requiring int so I'm sure it's just that, a bug

    Spoke to some people, apparently only one of the two Glyph sets is a true set.

    I don't think this is the Str set then, it's the Strongman's.

    I honestly think that the Big Top set should be the str set.

    What Big Top has versus Strongman's:

    +1 Dodge, +3 Hit, -4 Damage, -2 Armour - Per Piece.

    To a bear, of course the Big Top is more attractive.

    +4 Dodge, +12 Hit, -16 Damage, -2 Armour is a huge gain, IMO. 12 Hit? That's awesome!

    But unless bears get the short-end again, and the str set is focused on other classes (Fury - Paladin, now Strongman - Paladin), I'd have to say I'm really disappointed, almost discouraged.

    Please, correct me if I'm wrong or my point is biased, but I strongly believe that this should be the ​str set.


    Edit: Thanks dtf for showing his set and stats, this is what the Strongman's set does versus mine: (DTF/Me)

    DTF on left, My set on right.

    His set has roughly 21 more damage than mine, but I have 10-12% more hit (depending on ring).
    He has 15 armour on me, but I have more dodge than him (for a bear, dodge > armour).

    These are my main two factors on choosing this set as a bear. Dodge and Hit > Armour and Damage, no offense DTF.

    Wait... there's Nuri's and Charmin' for int, we know Charmin' works. If Nuri's also works would we be able to safely assume this is a bug? Just like Mimicry and Obedience for archers. If both work, I'm going with bug.

    I heard Nuri's isn't. For the dex, haven't come across any info.

    Was just about to edit that with second thoughts

    Since there are extras for all of them, why not give every class another set?

    I was also assuming there would be two.

    I agree Elly: Hit/dodge > dmg/armor. Would love to see this set with the bonuses. I hate not being able to play!

    Labor day weekend here in the U.S. My wonderful wife got me tickets to two concerts and ticketa to an Alabama football game (the college my IGN originates from... Alabama Crimson Tide.) I'll catch up in a couple of days, maybe tomorrow a little if the rain comes from this tropical storm.

    The break is good cause I am learning about the levels and new gear which will help when I'm back.

    Will do bro! I was kinda bummed first day with the gear but now that it is all coming together, I'm more anxious to get back. And we still have Mt. Fang waiting for us!

    Still ... Set bonus or not it looks pretty comparable as for stats, I still choose this set for Tank, bug or not and if I may say so.... it looks just plain badass!

    Edit: also hit% should go well over 100% after they fix the int bug and those points can all be distributed into dex

    So will I, I'm just disappointed more than anything.

    Now I fully know how the Expectancy Theory I just learnt in school works

    Nothing related to any players or drug references because they already got me into trouble
