I've started playing PL again, mainly PvP. I have to say, after coming from AL and returning... WOW, I forgot how much better the PL community is. Sure, there are trash talkers, but not at the level that AL has them.
So, in regards to the community, I think we are pretty on path with that. There may be some things like the yola site scammers, but if we come together as a community and warn everybody about them, they too won't have much to feed on.
In regards to content updates, I truly think it's the end of the line for PL. However, does that mean that there's nothing to do? No. There are 76 different levels. Within those 76 different levels, there are 15+ gaming communities. Why do I say 15+ gaming communities? Well, there's twinking. So, if we are going by every 5 levels, that means every 5 levels there's a whole other community & tactics to learn.
However, does AL have that? Truthfully, not really. While AL has some amazing PvP & some of the best FFA I have seen through all their games, the level of skill required to PvP in PL is far superior. So, there are some advantages to PL over AL.
So, do we really need a new campaign to fix things? I wouldn't say so. However, I have noticed that other MMOs will release new gear and items to obtain that mix up the content without increasing the level cap. Perhaps, developers can try that? More elite weapons would be cool! What about elite gear like armor, weapons, etc? That would keep players busy for a while and revive many people's interest.
Again, I don't think PL needs a new campaign, just needs new content like elite gear.
Now introducing the 6 piece elite ring! :D
Provides: 50 dodge, 90% hit, 75% crit, 3 armor, 19 health, x h/s (since it can be stashed), 10 m/s, adds unique active - exterminate: wipes any of 1 enemy, 75 dex, int, and str, increases 752.3 damage, gives you a red name, gives a GoA shield, gives you Flip's staff, and you become Justgg (if you catch my drift).
The rise up of trolls is kinda false since I troll daily and have never met someone who trolled like me as and old player or general troll on the Internet. I see most players that try to troll now are just cursing and spamming with caps (which is not trolling) just being childish and immature. Which feeds to your argument incredibly that the new generation of pl players and there "attitudes" will hinder any rise back to glory.
I feel with the old players such as my self are starting to get lazy since all the players we keep training act the same and have no motivation (with the exception of a hand full of good new players). I've met a lot of great players in pl back before my 5 month break off back in 2010-11 ish due to scammers became a plague in pl where they were everwhere. And Pl was staring and is started to get like that some what again.
Oh man I've gotte like 12 yola site scammers in the past 5 months banned. Yola moves very fast with these things and I'm very greatful of it (THANKS YOLA). On the matter of AL yah The cummunaty there is pretty bad even for me who trolls.
And on the topic of content I feel pl just does not see that pl is there main battle ship and that's why pl has been put on hiatus with caps and content (also I feel this is due to al not having much content as pl) Which is debatable but telling players just flat out
((Don't expect new content or a new cap on the horizon in pl)) is some bs. And we can all agree on that old or new.
It's interesting that you mention that. The issues are:
1. At endgame, (and it's always been like this), the willingness to learn is not there, save for beginners in endgame PvP (and only occassionally).
2. Twinking can be unpleasant at times.
3. If people don't know what to do, they've got to ask. If it's a matter of things like not knowing the orbs on Gurgox, well, asking would help for sure. If someone doesn't ask, well, it's expected that they know.
But the biggest issue I think is at endgame where people should have a clue how to play (except maybe at PvP).
The truth is, even on dev teams, there's usually a lot of disagreement on what to do. I've worked with software engineers before. There's always a lot of debate going on behind the scenes.
Regarding scammers, well, like any game, once a game reaches a certain level, you're going to get scammers no matter what. Similar things happen with Eve, WoW, LoL, Dota, and a lot more of them. Pretty much everything that you see in the PC is going to happen on the phone.
I haven't played much AL, so I fear that you may be right about that. I would like to hope otherwise though. Other MMOs do frequently release new gear, although it is often via a tier system like WoW.
Updates wise, I fear that you may be right. But as far as what to do? Well, reforming major guilds would be a step forward.
Nice to see you decided to start playing again Parth, by the way in PvP nowadays I find it much easier to start FFAing then it was before, if you wanna FFA you have to organize it but many more players have been for FFA in the past few weeks.
I want to fight Zeus. <3

If you can find me in game, although I think at L76 it's mainly just whoever hits their HS and Crushing Blow first. I hate the fact that they nerfed buffs, but then they didn't nerf debuffs. What logic is that?? .-.
I mean, if a bear gets hit with a debuff now, they are so strong that essentially it renders him/her useless for 7-9 seconds.
couldnt agree moar. I think a lot of the old players are quitting because Pvp is ruled by luck now, so what difference does it make if ur more skilled then the other person.
I like this idea frankly. We don't need a new campaign. We need new modes of play, new Pvp maps, new gear for all levels, stuff like that.
wish I had a thanks bud.
This is very true. Debuffs are really overpowered now. Especially hs and blind above 66.
Weakness isn't even as much of a debuff is it?
Correct me if wrong, not much of a mage player.
Pretty sure it's -60 hit%.. Lemme check.
EDIT: http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/10/12/nyhe4uda.jpg
Yep, also -60 dmg so I guess 8m is fair. ._.
Oh, like I said not sureQuote:

Feel dumb, I am probably wrong on this too.
actually idk if this true or not but they nerf the debuff...lol
HS is 12m and has -60% hit & -60% damage.
Don't do this to me I had this and now I don't feel imporant

ha got a pic before u nub
Trenton, ice is a 12meter debuff when ranked at L9. Lightning is also a darn good debuff. To make an elf's nightmare and weakness 12m would be insanity.
It's alright for bears, because they only have 2 12m skills to get in close. Before this, it used to be only one. IMO, the 12m increase was needed.
IMHO hs should be 10 not 12. 12 is a bit much. 10 seems about right.
Definitely not 60% damage, that would reduce a birds 400 blast shot to 160 damage. It's just 60 damage points.Quote:

This thread gave me a headache :(

What sucks: elixirs and how the newer maps seem to be designed around them.

Once that fades off, MAN, it. takes. ages. to. run. across. the. maps. That's when I get bored and log off.
What I used to love: the tightness of play around the time of Alien Oasis onwards through Sewers. Combos all the way ... Don't get that any more.
UEP!!!!!
Omg I miss you!! U stalking PL forums? You must be bored lol. Tell everyone I miss them.
I stopped by LOTRO a little while ago and didn't see you guys. Fuzzy thought you might be playing something else. Been crazy busy here. Planning to stop in next week. Hope to see you guys soon :)
Mwah!! Love you!!
It is hard now for bears to gather mobs because the mobs dodge mainly fang and up you usually have 2 or 3 enemies dodge beckon, secondly, because with elixirs people don't even wait behind the bears, third, with the elixirs and the bears' already extremely powerful aoe combo the mob nearly dies being scattered across a room/corridor, lastly, the maps like humania especially, and blacksmoke, don't have the tight passages to make pulling easy. Many 76 don't even know what pull means in the context of mobs. The sewers revolved around this strategy though, even nuri's use it alot.
Ha! A LIKELY STORY. Every time I'm in, no one's there.
I'm now down to playing my girl-dwarf-champ and that's saying lots. Yeah, I'm playing swtor - so's Ariskabar. Good fun but the f2p/premium model sucks so not going to stick around after going through with a few different characters. Just biding time to see what happens to mmo land after ESO comes, and also see what's happening with Helm's Deep.
Hope to see you soon tooo! Let's do some fun stuff :)
