Last chance to buy Ripmaw in the stable! Catch a shark today!

Hauntlet timer achievements will now be granted to everyone in the dungeon if one player crosses the line on time.
Doing a test to see what kind of impact changing the level spread in PvP to only be -1 or +1 of the player that started the match will have.

[Iamlmmortal]

First

[LuizaKaja]

Yay I might actually live in PvP thanks.

[Lady_Pebbles]

Very nice update! Glad yall are doing the +1/-1 in PvP like many of us asked. Hope it goes well! Also glad about the Hauntlet Achievement. Thanks guys.

[Cero]

lol

[azbestwarior]

Admin when free respect skill:(

[Lindono]

What do you mean by -1 or +1?

[azbestwarior]

Its bed rogue kill me for hit or 2 why:(

[wvhills]

Improved bonuses on elixirs? The only reason I play al instead of pl is because it's possible to actually participate in a group without buying elixirs. If u talk to a lot of people (I don't want to grossly over generalize) they'll agree that 2x and 3x combo elixirs have ruined pl. please reconsider this move. Honestly, please look at ur bottom line and see if this decision is really necessary. I love Al's business model because it doesn't rely on elixirs that change the whole dynamics of the game. Please please please reconsider this.

[Imjebus]

Woo I like the -1 +1 for pvp :) makes it so lvl12's/14's aren't just killing me in 2 shots -_-

[azbestwarior]

why as a pile of some potion or I get from this class time flies as I'm in town You can do something about it:(

Get me some of whatever he is on. LOL

I can understand making the combo elixir slightly better, but I hope you didn't go ahead and make it really OP because then we are just heading down the PL road where you need an elixir to do PvE.

[Swede]

I assume you're using some internet translator azbestwarior but I think you mean that you don't like that the elixirs from the Allies now tick while you're in town or offline etc. Unfortunately we had to do that change because it cut in too much to our elixir sales and if we make no money, we can't pay salaries and can't create new content. Simple and blunt truth, sorry.

It is only slightly better, we definitely don't want to get to a point where you have to use elixirs to complete end game content.

Lighter than water Swede, I can understand it! I hope other players too

[Caiahar]

good update...i think...

[chitgoks]

i was hoping the hauntlet fix would require all players to cross the finish line in order to get a hauntlet coin. that way, there would be no squatting

[DeathVirus]

The rogue has a 50 plat vanity costume and I'm guessing it's because the pirate map thing is the rogue's story? When you make a new map for whatever class you're doing it for will there be a 50 plat costume for that class?

[Theholyangel]

Im not rather fond of this -1/+1 idea and action, in my honest opinion, its somewhat the same as before. I'm lvl 23, if a 24 makes a match then I join it along with others that are 23 and we get our butts handed to us by 25's, and if we leave and try to find another one, we cannot because that is the only arena at the time. I believe a better action is setting a regulation in pvp due to levels, rather than this -1/+1, so we do not mingle with higher levels and die repeatedly.

[Orageunas]

Will ripmaw come back ever?

[ishyrionek]

Nice! :-)

Doing a test to see what kind of impact changing the level spread in PvP to only be -1 or +1 of the player that started the match will have.

Sounds funny. Need tests :-)
Btw is this +-1 to starter lvl, or its 2 lvl cap, so if 24 start, then 25 join, then 26 can join?

[Excuses]

But why do you have to remove one of the best warrior pet and replace it to rogue's?
This is sad.
Expect you to bring better warrior pet too!

[Darko]

I hope they have a bad *** warrior pet give me a grizzley bear hell ya ....I like the new content for ovp, never saw a 24 in room, and I don't know if everynody nnoticed, you get a loss now for leaving a room, best thing ive heard

[Bebsi]

lol awesome update, now lvl12s can't just farm kill so easy any more ... muahaaahaaharrrr

from what i tested so far...

1.) lvl10 warriors can't kill each other, it just takes too long --> good, so maybe some might concentrate on the game (ctf)

2.) lvl6-7 mage can take on 1-2 players without dying too fast (within heir lvl range)

3.) lvl6-10 rogues are op, but hell u gotta love the dps rogues do ^_^

will do some further testing on more toons

[Greencrow]

+1/-1 hope it'll works!

[Greencrow]

Nice! :-)

I think if 24 is the starter then only 23 and 25 can join and not 26.. that's what i've understood :)

[jk9810]

I get killed a lot less with the pvp update. THANKS!

[Darko]

Warrior damage still needs addressed, war vs war is insane since windmill nerf

While your frustrations are warranted, as designers we have to be careful and keep in mind the big picture about how frequently we give players a pink or other type of rare drop. The reality is that there are a very large number of people playing the game at any given time and just because your friends and yourself are not finding pinks does not mean they aren't dropping. We all love to open a chest and get something awesome, but the reason its awesome is because it's rare!

If we just dropped them all frequently so that people saw pink it would just become the new Epic, and lackluster. Pretty shortly afterwards players would complain that there are too many pinks and that the economy has imploded, and now mythics don't drop enough. Not to mention the market for pinks would crash because there are just too many of them.

Hopefully this sheds some light on why we can't just "increase" drop rates, as once we do that part of the in game economy is a one way ticket we can't take back.

[SailHatan]

Im only level 12 and i ended up with 15s...

[Swede]

After the patch that shouldn't be possible. We'll keep monitoring it and urge anyone else that has this happen to let us know, thanks.

[Zyntia]

Nice update, specially the pvp level range patch. Didnt have to wait longer than usual. I am lvl 14 and met lvl 15s and lvl 14s, which is way better than meeting 16-18s like before.

[Hadec]

in a pvp match i was 10 and somehow all was 16-18 21 lvl..wtf...

Well. That why I hate it too.
Pink cost high, and requires 15 plats, but always gives craps. All I got from 30 pink box cost less than 1000 gold. Seriously.

I hope boxes would be real rare too and guarantee a better item. So I feel worth to use money on it. Plats are actually money from our pocket.

[kiffnshey]

yes u get my,point here seem al dev not understand our pocket money come out to purchase plat every week to open locked hoping we can get mythic helm but we get crap pinkmitem at cs the is 300gold always same item i got

Then you won't even have the play the game. You can just sign in, buy all the best items, then log off and come back in 2 months for the next expansion.
