  1. I certainly enjoy finding these, the harder to find the better IMO. PvP zones are especially tough too, so when I discover them it is very rewarding to me. Bloody Bay 1. Location: 622.3 -35.0 1676.6. The geometry is raised over the water to allow a teleport through (see white circle). Siren's Call 2. Location: -648.0 -137.6 -276.9. The camera angle needs to be as depicted (in the screenshot) in order for the teleport cursor to appear white and allow activation. Tested and confirmed multiple times.
  2. @winden88 The band still plays. Their spawn pattern appears randomly, in my experience. I have seen them briefly as I zone in, while AFK for a long enough period, and while outside/underneath Pocket D exploring geometry errors.
  3. For a second there I thought the OP was talking about the actual LRT bug that has been present since Live.
  4. I want to say 40 was the level cap until issue 2?
  5. The creativity in this thread is unparalleled! I remember one of the key selling points of this game back in the day was the many (trillions?) of different costume options available. So many great costumes!
  6. I am excited to see how everything turns out. Thank you for the updates and a thank you as well to all of our VOLUNTEERS and developers who keep this server running and playable. Change scares people, but I am looking forward to whatever gets tested and pushed to live.
  7. What a fun search indeed! Link to the search (Page 11 we have the reveal): Mod edit: moved stuff into a spoiler block
  8. Best guess: "Our schedule will be 12:00 PM - 2 PM UTC every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. This schedule may change over time, and will almost certainly shift during Summer Time." From:
  9. Ah, I misunderstood what you were asking. I only have the game displayed on one monitor.
  10. I love these zones too! Bloody Bay has such a great atmosphere and canon. Siren's has a very unique mechanic that doesn't exist (okay maybe in RV) in any other zone in the game - it's ambushes/clashes between Longbow and Arachnos.
  11. Great posts as always from @macskull, you should be given a forum title! I may have incredibly low standards, but I think this game has so much freedom in it that you can make anything work in any situation. Literally any AT in any situation can be unbeatable given the necessary time and dedication to achieve it. You want to be good in arena? Watch and learn from the community, follow the meta (damage is king, cap hp+absorb, etc.), learn effective voice communications and keyboard shortcuts. You want to be good in zone PvP? Gather your friends or in-game acquaintances and work as a team (just like in PvE). Every ability in this game has a counter (I welcome evidence to contradict this statement). Nothing worth winning is achieved without effort - put in the effort and you will come out on top. I would argue that the above statement holds true across badging, solo-ing content/TFs, leading trials/hami raids, etc., as well.
  12. 160/200, but I got all the pictures right! Fun quiz.
  13. When I role play Euclidian Pilgrim (great name huh!) I give tours across every zone to show interesting things from behind/under/ inside the world. Usually someone wants to see Pocket D outside or some other zone.
  14. Love your concepts lately! Reminding me of my days playing Civilization.
  15. For clarity, a generalization is "a general statement or concept obtained by inference from specific cases". In your post you described your personal experience using words and phrases like "lost count of how many times", "harassed and insulted", "by PvPers", "5th or 6th time". Combined these words and phrases become a generalized statement. With this inference in mind, that is why I sought further information from you in order to better understand what you had posted. With the further information you provide, I can see that you have had a different experience than I have had (though I would describe a similar situation as yours as outright harassment not linked to a particular game mechanic (i.e., PvP) and would similarly use the block/ignore function or request assistance from a GM). I don't think your experience is right or wrong, better or worse, good or bad. So thank you for sharing!
  16. So looking at this equation through the lens of supply and demand; an economic principle aptly tied to your discussion I might add - the intervention by a regulator whom I would characterize as the developer many years ago (specifically after the PvP mechanic was introduced) led to a change in "purchasing habits" of the population if you will. Segregating a section of this "market" led to a purchaser's bias, believing the regulating entity was inclined to invest in other industries (mechanics of the game, stay with me) and provide no incentive to buyers to continue purchasing the product of that industry. My economic-fu is weak, so forgive my lack of clarity 🙂
  17. Interesting perspective in your post, but it was the last part that confused me. To clarify, would you agree that labeling the people who you say "harassed and insulted" you, is a generalization towards a population of players who were not all actually harassing and insulting you? For example, I PvPed within the time frame you mentioned in your post, but I never encountered you to my knowledge. Would you consider me to have harassed and insulted you? It may just be my opinion, but I find it is important to refrain from generalizing when using blanket statements to paint a negative connotation on to a population of players. One other question - the PvP mechanic in this game can only take place in this game in either the Arena or in a PvP zone. Your post left me with the impression that the PvPers who wanted to "test their PvP build" against you were in either of these locations. Is that a fair assumption to make? If so, I would remain confused as the intent of these locations are to do the very thing you mentioned. If not, could you further clarify?
