Am I the only that knows about yellow weapon/range/charm yellow adorns are not working for beastlords? I petitioned it, got a response for it and still no update for it? Why are more people not complaining about this?
Maybe because they are so OP’d that people are trying to keep /petitions to a minimum?
Beastlords are only class in game that have a L90 Fabled weapon at this moment and they have to work harder than any other class to get it. Any possibility of being overpowered is how that class is played by the player based on how well he/she has learned the new beastlord advantage and primals system. Beastlords have no hate management, and require same as would an assassin in your group, so the Peaceful Links and Avoidance do and will help.
As for the yellow adornments, I have already put in /bug reports, not petitions. Don’t waste the time of GM’s by doing Petitions, use the /bug.
What ever happened to running the dungeons in your own characters instead of the avatars? Is that still in the works?
Do what I do with equipment fails. Feedback once a week. Then 50/50 chance they fix it within a year. Actually, I think the item devs have me on ignore. Stuff in the Items & Equipment Equipment Adjustment sticky haven’t been fixed since March 2011.
No, Mike, you’re not the only one. I’ve also feedback/petitioned/bugged it. Apparently that’s not a huge priority for people. /shrug.
@Greygore Running on your own characters now is apparently just a test server initiative according to this. http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?topic_id=513722
I dont get people’s reasoning for complaining about BLs being op’d..first of all, they suck at pvp…kill their pet and they are useless, and their monstrous dps only helps in grps/raids…so what’s the big deal just give us our yellow adorns
Which is THE GAME for some people.
For other people, the game is PvP, or crafting, or decorating.
Thanks for the link Lempo. I was hoping to get in on some of the extra mark action, but I just can’t stand using the avatars.
I’ve seen beastlords with Ry’Gorr gear and solo quest DoV jewelry come into Kraytoc easy mode and put up 130K+ DPS.
That is completely insane, and completely over powered.
Still don’t understand your complaint…
