Thread: Any things you don't like in the 3.0 patch notes?

Almost no player plays more than 4 classes actively, so 4 complete glamour sets is more than enough. 5 if you count wedding dress.

And sure it's annoying to farm crafting materials every time you need it, keeping 3 full stacks of gigantoad skin for months is pointless.

I've said it another thread when it comes to the mats thing. Why do they only stack to 99? Is this some kind of Final Fantasy standard we have to keep? Why not 999? Those three stacks of gigantoad skins now becomes 1 just as an example. Not sure why anyone would have that many gigantoad skins, but it is just the example you made. What I really get at when it comes to space isn't necessarily hoarding mats. It is armory space and the Armoire still not being fixed. Yeah people only play only certain classes, but what about crafters and gathers? I know many players who switch between all crafters all the time and are all the gathers as well (I may not have leveled my crafting, but even I have all the disciples of hand/land with items for each). That is more tools in your armory chest and more armor pieces in your armory chest or retainer if you move it there. The Armoire still not accepting certain event items when it should just adds to matters.

Gigantoad skin = Toad leather = Leatherworking glamour prisms = profit

I am not too happy about the Skill/Spell speed changes. But I am reserving true judgement until I get in there and get real perspective.

I'm a little upset there was no mention of the Armor/Arms Guide that was discussed a few months back. Sort of like the Mount/Minion guide for armor and weapons you acquire because they could add in some neat little fluff pieces about this gear but they could tie this into the Glamour system. You obtain the weapon, it appears in your Arms Guide, you cast Glamours from gear in your Arms Guide.

It rehauls the tired ass Glamour system that also bloats players (Most players) all ready tightly packed inventory. I craft and gather a lot so I have tons of materials and armor, in addition to my Monk and Paladin gear. I'll still hope that they will follow this route for the Glamour system sometime in the near feature because it would HELP to alleviate some of the inventory issues for some players. I dunno about anyone else but I kept alot of my Level 50 AF for classes (Sorcerer's, Valor, Temple) for glamours and each of those is 5 slots on a retainer just IN CASE I might want to use it for a glamour at some point.

Honestly Diablo and WoW have a really solid vanity system and with how much Yoshi pulled from games like WoW I hope he pushes in this direction. Also, if you let us double the number of retainers we can obtain through RMT transactions to a total of 8 now, you at least need to allow us to have 4 without any additional sub costs, the same 50:50 split. The same people who bought extra retainers before will buy them again.


Now since I've been a downer, I really like that crafters are going to be getting specializations. I've been whining about that for a while honestly (Everyone can make everything causes so many issues with MB and removes the need for crafters and players interacting more with each other directly). New skills and traits for the DoL including new pre-50 traits and FINALLY FSH gets some GP skills. I pee'd a little in excitement when I read that.
