I think it's nice if there's some places where going solo is not an option. I'm not gonna stick my noobish head into a deathtrap anyhow.

kinda hard to get groups to fight insane levels when noone plays the game. soloing is about all ive done in 4 months. and half the time people come help they cause a nuisance and thats all, alot of times ruining my trips alltogether.

First of all; enough people play the game to form a hunting-party. Secondly, I always hunt alone myself. Except those few times when I've been with Duck, Wizz or Crox.

And, Dracula, you've showed me nothing but kindness those times we've met ingame, but I don't respect what you're doing now. If you wanna quit on Obs that's ok. But there's no reason to keep spreading shit on these forums, which seems to be the only thing you do nowadays.

Take care Dracula, and I hope all goes well for you in real life.

I couldn't agree with you more, I said the same thing to him, but not as nicely because he hasn't shown me the respect you say he's shown you.. If you're gunna leave, then leave already Drac, stop dragging it on.. it's getting rather tideous

You should either love me with a passion, or hate me to death..

STFU you winners. Yeah I got to say it. I was just telling my wife there wasn't a single complaint thread.

Anyhow Barbarian drop rate will be fixed and vamps will be fixed. For now I just made them not spawn. They will be back once an loot patch for them gets patched. Nothing should have GAURUNTEED magical loot unless it's like a chieften or something like that. Speaking of which I will change the spawn timers on the cheiftens to be an hour instead of so small. I will also adjust the spawn times on the rest of the mobs too. It's probably too fast for a lot of the stuff. I just took the existing spawn timers and changed what spawned.

In regards to level 3 being a death trap.... So? Level 3 shouldn't be easy. Have you been to level 3 of Deceit? It's a f'ing death trap too. Level 1 of a dungeon should be solo. Level 2 of a dungeon should be barely soloable and maybe two to three people and the deepest level NEEDS a party of players. I'm sorry if some of you don't agree with this but it's to help promote people playing together that if you want to own the deepest level of a dungeon you can't do it alone, bring friends. We've gone over this when I redid Deceit and Shame.

The other problem is if we don't give the game room for expansion is when we get a healthy server population people won't feel challenged because they can solo everything and quit or banksit. Gotta look at the bigger picture here people.

ok, great deal vic.. do me one single favor tho with wrong... Do No set timers longer on all the spawns... the fast timers on the spawners is what makes it great and many ppl can hunt there at once u see.. say the witches.. well if u got 3 guys hunting the witches its fine cause u know they spawn well enuff each person can take their own lil cell there and still make do ok... if u set timers on all the things to lower ammounts what u will have happen is less ppl being able to hunt there

thats just my advice tho.. i believe the timers u got set are great... long timers like such as you are saying "1 hour" well that was for the cheiften as u said but if u do that.... what does that really do.... answer: slow down the game....

timmers like that cause this to happen.. just like the reg guarden... a person will kill it... then time it and come back to kill it again..
ppl will come in between and see it not there... long timers in my opinion only slow the game down.. what u have is ppl killing something like that.. then go bank sit for an hour to then return back...

good work.. but plz keep timers intact

p.s. just as a side note.... i wanted to say that wrong in my opinion is the best spawn setup that you have done... way better than deciet.. i think u have the spaceing way better setup.. where as to deciet i believe u have too much set to spawn.. i think about 1/4 of the spawns could be eliminated from lower levels in deciet.. not to make it easier .... just ot not have it as crowded... lower levels in my opinon should be hard.. im just glad u didn't crowd the area like in deciet.. this isnt winning just givin imput...

bottom line.. good job on wrong

sheesh excuse the fuk outta me for givin an opinion.

P.S. Dracula, I didn't mean to come off harsh dude. Don't worry it might seem like a lot of the game is getting harder but there will be a lot of easier areas coming soon too. Like when I redo despise. And the STFU was nothing personal. I just had to say it.

Putting spawn timers on the harder mobs aka chieftens allows me to make those cheiftans harder and give them garunteed drops. The reason why you make named spawn slower than everything else is to not "slow down the game" but rather promote you to move around. Instead of staying there and just killing witches for 3 hours if they spawn slower then that encourages you to go elsewere to hunt. It promotes you to move around and hunt multiple areas. It also prevents you from just sitting there and camping a chieften that respawns every 10 minutes and getting a force weapon on every spawn making those magic items worth less int he economy. Make them spawn once every 30 minutes to an hour, make them harder, then the weapons are worth the effort.
