#23558, "What we need is a newbie IMM. Which, coincedentally, is paradoxical."
|
Since being a newbie pretty much disqualifies you from being an imm.
I think a lot of the Immortals now are hardened vets, and all the feedback you can get second-hand doesn't beat a true newbie's perspective in the Heavens.
PS From the few people I talk to, the main problem with the sleek set STILL hasn't been addressed. Namely that the sets differ WILDLY in tougher/ease in gathering. Finding them (especially once you've played more than two hero range mages) isn't nearly as hard as figuring how the #### to get them
example: My last Scion had a cake amber and sienna, however, my black was in a hard to reach place with tons of aggro mobs that would honestly beat my dire wolf down (well, I could kill a couple but they'd wear me down). But my first Scion had an even worse black. I mean, the worst black you could get (IMHO). Yet I played a Trib shifter recently who could get all three of his in under two minutes and yeah, the black would bring me to half health and once killed me, but that was because I killed it WITHOUT PROTECTIONS all the time. So where is the balance in that? You have one black a character can get without protections, and you have another that you literally have to ABS for and hope you fight a good fight and your gear stacks up.
Now, of course, if player's weren't such gear whores and OOC cheaters, we could just make all the sleek spots limited wand spots and the system would be perfect. Unfortunately, the real world is what it is.
