Jimmy Pop wants to know if there are any plans to add to Wilki's changes

Wilki announced BOD changes coming in THIS post.



No mention of Runic Saws or Fletcher's Tools? I searched the entire post and a few people asked about it but no answer.

Will Runic Saws and Fletcher's Tools have their maximum intensities raised to 100% for each type?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Avenhar made a good point about some runics players may have.

would it be possible to change all the runic made weapons too ?

i still have valorite made runics that kind of got made worthless, would be nice if they could make em all the same

Jimmy Pop pointed out that

Well... it's kinda implied though....

Quote:

1. All runic tools have had their intensity ranges changed as follows:

All runic tools would include Saws and Fletcher Kits.

He just wants confirmation I guess

Neural Damage decided to get the knioves out by goading jeremy with a moan to Bob.


You see, Bob, this is the kind of post that should get a response from a Community Rep.

But almost a week later: nothing, nada, zip, zilch. Nothing the sound of chirping crickets.

Oooh I'm getting goosebumps just thinking what must be coming for this week's FOF. Nah, not really.

It worked though, as within minutes a reply was posted.I have to agree with Jeremy though


Nothing has been announced because, as of this moment, no work has been done on fletcher's kits and saws. No work is being done on them at the moment. It is possible - likely, even - that work will be done on them in the future.

(That kind of answer is not particularly helpful to anyone, which is why I don't tend to jump on this kind of thread.)

Did I just read that correctly?

I must not be reading that right, there's no possible way they would do that.

I keep going over it, and there has to be something wrong.

Are they seriously upping the intensity of every runic to hit 100%??

Where's the thought process in this?

Ho ho ho ho... Merry X-mas!!

the point of it is to give something to the crafters..... right now, all of the "godly" pvp or pvm weapons are usually looted. Crafters have a role in the society again.

Take a look at the charts I posted in the crafter section DiP. man oh MAN>. Bronze is the new valorite!

It would be nice to see quality merchandise on venders again.

Why do you think I couldn't believe what I saw when I looked at the changes?

That's ridiculous.

Valorite hammer and barbed kit raise incoming!!

*Sees barbed kit sell for 10mill+*

Whiiiiiii lets destroy economy!

The ultimate goal of EA is uncovered! Destroy the Economy and drive away the players!

I can totally see this coming true

Assuming the balancing is done correctly, the prices shouldn't rise too much since they're also making colored smith bods way easier to obtain.

Now as for the runics, just because they all have the chance to hit 100% intensity doesn't mean they will do it often. The crappier hammers have a wider range meaning they're far more likely to score low in intensity, but at least they too CAN produce something surprisingly nice on occasion.

Intensities as I recall work on a curve, meaning it's far less likely to score high than it is to score low, the random intensities assigned to properties aren't linear.

Anyway, this should all be positive since most runics as they are are utterly worthless and as we know crafters have been shafted for ages.
