Time for a new Buffer

Arckon · 05-03-2012, 01:48 AM

I dont understand how we are supposed to test the new contennt in Rygorr gear and tofsx2 jewelery and three pieces of new items. Why dont you guys just put a NPC on the test copy server similer to a broker who has everything in the game for one copper. I mean really its the test server..let us test stuff out.

I'm puzzled as to what "new content" you feel needs testing. Game Update 63 was released on April 17th. The next new content is months away and, if it's like Freeport Revamp was, then it will be level 20-80 solo quests.

Since you're talking not about TEST, but TEST COPY, why not copy a decked out character from live?

With the mission resetting NPC, you can run the Skyshrine solo instances 3 times a day, as many times as you copy each character. And since you can repeatedly copy over characters to multiply your plat, shards, gear, etc. why not copy over characters multiple times with Dozekar's Head and then buy all your gear on Test Copy?

They have wiped Test Copy and no buffers anymore, so you'll have to /testcopy add

do this while logged on the character(s) you have on live.

my copy came over pretty fast today.

I think they should just bring Old Man Dave with the DoV HM gear back up, that would require almost no effort, and since DoV HM gear is about on par with or maybe slightly better than Skyshrine heroic gear, it would be perfectly fair and balanced.

yes they should. i have a 90 warden 92 conjy, and 33 other toons. I really dont want to copy them all over.

Its annoying that they want you to test stuff but basically are relying on on hardcore gamers that do not do quest at all.

Don't sweat it. Whenever there's been max-level content to test they've activated the Test Copy buffers. When we need it, they'll do it. In the mean time, level up your live characters for copying over for the next time there's new content!

Remember, if you have no characters on Test or Test Copy you'll have to make one for your copied characters to show up.

I think the next 'testing' might involve Qeynos revamp. If so, that will need characters level 10-90 for testing of the racial quests. Most should have toons in that range but they may put in a buffer.

I would like to see a buffer that buffs in 10-level increments for that! That way I can try each of the racial questlines by rolling a different race and buffing to the level needed for the next series of quests
