Loot improvements and other refinements, new daily quest, vanities and more

[SouLBlizzard]

No plat sale for celebrating ?

[Carapace]

What about the lvl25 elite jarl gear that drop and have the same exact stats as some lvl26 sealord? -.- Will yall fix those stats too? *hopes so* >_<

The stats issue with these items will also be fixed in the update

[zweixii]

Update sounds great, looking forward to it. Any preview of those new vanities and banner?

[Xoreobonezxe]

Loot improvements and Elite maps easier? Is this some kind of joke?

Sorry, but i'm not liking this at all. Spent few mils on RARE items (Flamestrikes, gears) and few mils on a Mythic helmet.

Now you tell me they'll be even more of them in CS...

So cool.. what's the point of that?

Hoorah for the vanity and ''mythic'' if I can call it that now, changes.

In any case if Mythic stays the same, what about the millions spent in regular elite pinks and to see them 10k a day after?

The rare items he is talking about is the rank rare. The ones with the green name.

[sync]

finally some good news for people that dont have platinum or dont play 24hrsday

The rare items he is talking about is the rank rare. The ones with the green name.

I know.

1: Less greens = more pinks.
2: Easier elite maps = more pinks.

1 + 2 = Price drops really fast. Means big loss of gold for some of us if not majority.

I like this update very

ppl already complain abt money loss lol. And the ones i just saw in game with the title "filthy rich".
And i doubt it the only items u bought for milions r lvl 25 droppped from jarl which is the easiest boss to farm so prices will drop if this patch happens or not. And i dont realy know why ppl buy items for such expensive prices when based on previous experience everything drops on price eventualy.

And they say thers only slightly shortening of elites nothing abt making them easier. This gives ppl time to farm and knowledge they have some good chances to get good drops. Still u can get more epics then legendaries.

But to be able to have some chance in elite ppl need good gear so legendaries should be more around (and u cant be so selfish telling u will lose gold, prices always drop no matter what) and only mythic and arcane items were meant to be for some "chosen ones". This r obtainable from crates also and many ppl r opening them so no wonder thers more of them around.

And woot woot for new vanities i can spend my plat on i just hope i will like them lol

It is not because you have the title Filthy Rich that you are.

There's these things called friends, and there's trust.

Then, you lend gold or borrow.

Come on devs.. Give us a bug fix update. So many irrelevant things in patch notes lately when theres some real issues in game mechanics. Eg. windmill spiky damage, some rogue abilities not firing away correctly etc. Also please give some love for pvp. It's a oneshot gamble right now, atleast for rogues. Skills overall would need some updating as the content keeps developing. Anyway thanks for the hard work. So far ive really enjoyed the kraken isles content itself.

PvP and other stuff is being looked at!

Here are some screens of the Steel Heraldic vanities. More to come too.

I know.

1: Less greens = more pinks.
2: Easier elite maps = more pinks.

Actually less greens means more blues. The chance to get pinks is probably remaining the same.

(gonna make up some junk numbers for the sake of using them in an example)
Let's say each item from a current gold chest has a 60% chance to be green, 20% chance to be blue, and 10% chance to be pink. By removing the greens, they are probably just removing the chance for greens and bumping up the chance for blues. So after the patch, each item from a gold chest has a 90% chance to be blue and the same 10% chance to be pink.

Now obviously it's all speculation on our part, because we simply don't know. Maybe chances for pinks will go up. Maybe not. Time will tell. Don't get all doom & gloom on speculation.

I actually hope the rates for pinks goes up, though, because I only care about improving my own character, not about having more and better loot/money than everyone else. More pinks = easier to gear my character = making me a better team mate.

This is a very good thought

[Samhayne]

And a couple of screenshots from the new daily quest:





Looks like I need to be faster on the health potions, eh? (Don't read too much into the difficulty of the daily quest island from this shot, it was more for fun than anything).

If you're on the daily quest island and get the rare mini boss, I hear tell of good treasure (chest) to be had from 'em!

[razerfingers]

Sent using blood on a bathroom wall

o.O


On topic, great vanities. Black color would have fit the Mythic helmets but well, the shiny of these ones makes me want to buy em!

Can't wait.

[sonvolt]

Love the quick update, as always great job by STS! Yes there will always be something to complain about, but overall STS has shown they do care for their players and I am very pleased.

[Len Der]

been using lvl 15 Heraldic set as a vanity for 3 weeks now, hahaha... It looks really awesome.. So shiny

And Is the drop rate of gold chest be more rare o.O since there is a better chance of getting pinks and stuff ?
