Uber rare toning or flooding

Kris: Fair enough - I didn't mean to call you out like that. While I do see some of what you speak of I also think the vast majority of the game and pbase aren't the douches you speak of. I also think some of the 'stronger' players abuse the hell out of bugs and loopholes they find. Then act like fine when (if?) caught. Look at everyone who sheathed the ruby dagger on the blademasters back in the day.

That being said, we've all had character we get strong on and kick the cr@p out of others on - because we can. I'll be the first to admit it - even with great RP lots of time I went and killed someone because I like the thrill of PK (winning is great too, but the whole experience is what I play for) and new that I'd be have a better than average chance of killing them.

More rares....maybe. I think rare eq provides certain powers because its rare. If everyone could have a Ring of Accuracy then it wouldn't be so powerful would it? Making more just moves up the power gaming (IMHO) as everyone has stuff.

More rares makes my life easier - but I don't have issues on most characters as I can find rare or non-rare eq that is as good as I want. On the rare occasions someone else has it - its usually the guy I'm always fighting and its hard to get anyway (I don't know about anyone else, but I always seem to be the guy who lands the tough fights. Maybe because I don't back down from them, maybe I'm just lucky )

I think rares are tied to pbase size? More players = more rares.

L-A

From a neutral standpoint.... I agree with KRins.

It's not a bad angle to want to kill for your wares, it's actually a nice addition to the game. But I'd have to agree that it IS the game, as it stands now. I notice very few people in game offer to purchase things I have or might have. People don't try to challenge other people for wares, if they want them that bad. When everyone acts the same, I can see how it would get stale. How many people really go to Syndicate and ask for a certain item?

Even I get that mentality now and again, but recently I wanted to be rid of some items. I had no RP reason to give them away. I found one, I challenged someone to a contest and lost. Bam, given away items. Broadening horizons could help flesh out the atmosphere, and I will try to do my part, for one.

I think you guys all need to settle down, roll a thief. =D

Your anger has clouded your reason. A shame. I ussually enjoy your posts Krins' date=' but these? What happened to you? What special thing is it you arent getting? And honestly, will making more rares change this bad attitude? Look there is two Monorods and Krins has one, Foxx has one, but H&R is pissed. Better make a third cause you know H&R is going to take Krins. Let us cater the game to the loser. I mean I come here because its a pk environment, we honor and award pk in game, yet you all suggest that we create more rares because the really good players have them all. They are the really good players after all. I am not coming out my rookie year and bi&*hing to the NBA that even though I lost every game I should still get a trophy. But my role play was good, I was pretending to be the best basketball player! Yeah, yeah. My role play is good too, while you were pretending to be the best basketball player, I was being the best thief. While you were complaining to the NBA, I was robbing Jordans house. If I havent lost you yet, steal H&R's rares is the point here. :} jk and cheer up Krins.[/quote']

lol

I've never had a monorod

i had one for about 15 seconds.

I envy you. Having a monorod, you're so cool!

lmao, had it in my inventory, was stolen before i got to equip it and swing it once

Monorod? Hah! I had a birod.

Monorod? Hah! I had a birod.

Or was that dirod? Durod?:confused:

And double post! haha!

lmao' date=' had it in my inventory, was stolen before i got to equip it and swing it once [/quote'] I blame Wade

lol actually mindflayer jacked it

Who cares about monorods, they are awful anyway.

But a mono rod is not a common rare, is a uber rare. Those should be limited in quantity. You do not need a monorod to be competitive. You do need is a average 25 weapon like the Gem Studed Spear. (If you are a Pinacle.)

This are the kind of weapons that should be always available. The kind you need to compete, even if you need to get a friend to kill the bastard mob that holds it. Yes, we veterans can probably do it alone, but not everyone is a veteran.

Gal Ranidon Signet

ring of blood (one of the BEST rings period)

Lancelots signet ring

Male wedding band

Female wedding band

There are a few interesting resources for rings really.

I am talking about meele rings.

The Lancelot and Gal Ranidon Signet are this, but both are uniques.

If I want to upgrade my meele rings, I either have to get a Unique or a the best ring in gate, the ring of Accuracy.

There should be an easy access rare ring for pinnacles.

Example, Lancelot ring could go Unique to Rare and placed on another mob in the same area.

Another example of under used equipment is the Crusader EQ in Emerald.

You are better of in Mithril than in that.

Mya, underused and underpowered are two different things

Right!!!

If a equipment is underused (not used) it's because something is wrong with it.

In this case, not used at all.

Just like the Blue Magi armor in Citadel. Such a great opportunity for this suit of armor, yet to few value at the present.

This could be the Mages mithril armor.

There really does need to be more medium grade armor between mithril/tainted and solid rares. I find the leap is huge from non rare to rare armor, especially in the AC department. You can get competitive saves and hit/dam in non rares but your AC in all likelyness will suck. (unless you are rolling with armor/shield/stone skin 24/7

Which reminds me, there are quite few AC armors.

Pure AC armors, not Uber EQ that happens to have insane armor.

This would be great for mages, as ~450 AC works almost as an extra defense.

An easy requip set, would be great.

I think that mages are powerhouses even without this suits.A bmage with such suit is going to have around -600 ac

-450 is very very good. I'd be happy with -300 accross the board.
