Beta questions answered. Well Brice's and Keidan's at least...

[Gaige]

<DIV>First off Brice.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Yes, yes I did get around to testing that group FD for you, and each group member gets their own FD value.  I'm not sure if this is intended or not so I emailed MG to ask him.  It probably is though I assume.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><IMG src="http://img335.imageshack.us/img335/7648/seefeign4lq.jpg"></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Next up /show_window MainHUD.Character *does* work in beta.  So therefore I decided to try my hand at some haste stacking.  These are the results...</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><IMG src="http://img335.imageshack.us/img335/6998/haste9in.jpg"></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>72% haste.  Is that right, well let's see:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><IMG src="http://img335.imageshack.us/img335/5146/hasteitems7tc.jpg"></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Looks to be about right.  BTW I switched to my off stance (app1) which is 19% atk speed and the rating went up to 91%, so working as intended I suppose.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Oh one other thing about haste.  My lvl 60 doesn't have the off stance master II, but if he did he could get 112% self buffed haste with 4 things: EB master 1, CT master 1, FBSS, HB Master 2.  Interesting.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Last but not least I really like this knuckle graphic, and I hope it gets implemented in DoF live, because we all know how much they like for fabled knucks to drop.  Plus omg its a fabled cestus PLEASE put something like this in live.  (Keep in mind stats suck because they are just for raid testing).  Anyway, graphic rocks imho, but cestus graphic is the same.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><IMG src="http://img165.imageshack.us/img165/8016/stuff8zz.jpg"></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Oh yeah, about the persona screen.  My HP got hit hard.  So much for all STA after the revamp.  I'm probably going all agi/wis.  Also if you check my avoidance numbers they are more around 65% (about where they should be 65 to 70% self buffed).  In earlier ss of my lvl 60 I had all t5 gear, so your avoid/mit blows chunks.  With some vendor t6 fabled for testing my numbers are looking better.  About 40% mit and 65% avoid with decent gear.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Still though, there are some SERIOUS melee issues and tanking issues on beta that *need* to be resolved before live, but that's for another thread.</DIV>

Thanks for testing that out and posting the results Gaige. =) btw... is that a spectre with a scythe behind your persona window?! <div></div>

[Gaige]

Yeah, 47+++ heroic.  I'm skilling up on them.  Or was when I took the ss.

[WhiteLig]

Thanks for checking that out for me!  (Dont know where you found that A in Keiden though =P ) <div></div>

<P>Thx for the Posting. If you would have a chance to check if 2 Haste Items still stack, it would be great. And maybe you could ask a def if it is intended and if it is gona stay like that. Atm i am using a 20 % Haste Braclet und a non Haste 24 str Belt. If Haste on items is going to stack in the future, i would try to get a 20% Haste Belt too.</P> <P> </P> <P>Thx</P> <P> </P> <P>Noogi</P>

<div></div>On Test (not sure if this holds true in Beta).. Haste items of the same value do not stack. Example:  A Crystal Ring of Speed(20%) will not stack with a Bangle of Manipulation(20%) or a Girdle of Conquering(20%)... BUT.. Either of those three items WILL stack with FBSS (15%). Same with slayers rings.. the 3% haste will stack with everything but a second slayer ring. I hope this gets looked into and some sort of a cap is implemented.. it makes the Girdle of Conquering virtually useless if you have any other haste item + FBSS. EDIT: Oh and yea.. Group FD sometimes will work on all of the group or half of the group.  FD'd the group a bunch of times for the hell of it while fighting in Maj`Dul  and maybe 50% of the time it worked on everyone.. the rest of the times it just helped 3-4 people in the group. <div></div><p>Message Edited by Reposado on <span class=date_text>08-30-2005</span> <span class=time_text>02:23 AM</span>
