  • Agree about the graphics.  Loved the graphics in many of the solo games I played,  Played the solo version of this game in the 90’s and the graphics have not changed much as far as I can see.  I don’t think giving much thought to attracting new play…
  • I would hold them at least until the fourth just in case three curio collector reappears.
  • Yes generally agree with you Tim, but don’t expect things to change.  From what I’ve read here the enhanced client which was soundly rejected by players using the classic client was an attempt to do what you are suggesting.  Pretty sure the player b…
  • .???.  Don’t see any evidence they ever clarified a date.  Just an on or about statement.  Even the scripters were caught by surprise.   Don’t remember what they did in the past but don’t think ending date was ever a surprise or an issue.
  • Think really easiest resolution here is to put the curio vendor back up so players could turn in their eggs.  Surprised the event ended when it did but more surprised the curio vendor came down.  Usually think most of these characters stay up for a …
  • Have to admit this is the goofiest game I have ever played! The event ends on July 4th except no not all of the event is part of the event.  To say the egg collecting which dovetails with drop collecting is not related to the drop collecting event i…
  • New way is much better.  Everyone gets a chance.
  • Pretty sure recall is turned off that close to the barrels.  Turning off the gate should be a no brainer.
  • Read a lot but not all of the posts here.  No special shield so don’t play on Atlantic at all and to be honest have no desire to play there.  Bots are a pain but with a rune set for Britain’s farms and a few others can compete with them now.  Point …
  • Did not know egg spawn was random at first.  Agree it should have stayed that way.  Making a set of runes for known sites sort of takes away gaming element of the game.  But, then the super bots that could see eggs from a distance and that could mov…
  • Think about 65 to 75% of egg gathers at any one time on my shard are bots.  Have no interest in helping those persons.  If we were talking about legitimate players like those participating in this forum yes, but have no interest in helping those tha…
  • Oh! Almost forgot.  Insure your runes if you go to Fel.
  • You don’t need to go to Felucca to collect eggs.  It’s up to you. Only advice I have if you do go there is to turn them in when you have ten and then turn in the ingot That way you won’t get killed with 50 of either one in your pack.  That’s what so…
  • It’s been this way since I started about three rears ago.  Don’t have a problem with it.  It’s the norm for me.  The bank makes the payment.  It certainly is safer for the player.  No reason to carry cash around. Except when you buy up training and…
  • Don’t overlook vendor search.  Some vendors sell really good stuff for really reasonable prices.
  • There is a nice Tutsi Wolf location just above the undead area on the first Tokuno Island.  It’s about halfway up the island on your right bordering on the ocean.  Mostly you get Tokuno style stuff but it is high quality.   Also, the Fire Temple on …
  • You may all ready be doing this but to compete you need to move from location to location fast.  Create runes for each island and each farm house.  If you don’t go to Felucca, put the runes as a set in the top rows of your backpack.  I have a set of…
  • That’s amazing.  Such a simple solution.  Would upset a few players I think but an explanation up front and the opportunity to switch back to CC upon subscribing should take care of that.  Guessing that most scripters are long time players they woul…
  • I would not be playing had it not been for the EJ account I had for the seven or eight months it took me to figure out how to play the game.  They are necessary to get new and old players back into the game.  Although I don’t see much evidence that …
  • I play on what I believe is moderate population shard and think this event is more or less playing as intended.  Destard dungeon is intended as a group event. Pretty sure three players whether they know each other or not can handle anything in Desta…
  • Popps in the houses that typically spawn 2 or 3 eggs try hesitating a short time to see if a egg spawns or recall back to it after recalling out to check another location.  Sometimes that works for me.
  • Don’t know how many bots are on your shard but recalling from house to house and other egg sites is what you have to do.  Set up a rune book with a default rune for each site, or if you don’t go to Fel just set up runes in your pack and recall on th…
  • Just finished for the night.  Did not see anyone in the dungeon.  Just two bots and possibly a third collecting eggs.  Third one could have been human.  Seems to fast to be human but might be.
  • Just an observation from out in the field.  Bots getting eggs don’t appear to have eval intel.  Observed some at the turn that could not defend themselves even against the headless ones.  Appears that although players can’t attack them, monsters can…

  • I play a mage and use ev’s a lot.  If I am going to kill something with one, for example a minitor general, I stand about 15 squares away an cast the summons as far away from me as possible.  The summons usually has no trouble finding the target.  G…
  • To be honest standing around does not work for me.  If I stand still while a para is chasing another player, yes it usually works but I don’t get any points that way.  As soon as I jump in close enough to cast or actually cast a spell the paragon es…
  • Was playing in the dungeon and doing pretty well kill wise but if it’s rewards you seek start egging.  With a little practice and ingenuity 10 to 15 ingots an hour and no death robes.  And, by the way with all the competition it’s not boring anymore.
  • Make a rune set to get you from house to house esp. in Britain.  That’s what the real eggers are doing now.  I was riding from house to house and doing well until last night when I was up against three or four others using runes.  They cut my egg co…
  • You only get three things for killing monsters in this dungeon hit points from the damage you do, fame from killing certain monsters, and damage points you take from monsters.  Think your drop rate is based solely on those three items.  Don’t see an…
  • ?? been playing about three years.  Pretty sure I can put anything I can pick up on a vendor not that anyone else would want it.  What are you referring to?  A house? Thanks
