Double Experience

:P

Maybe this will get people out of the MMs, if only for the weekend ...

[Dranul]

Holy flying appeasement, Batman!

Of course, now I'm wondering what it feels like to get an AA with only two kills in the Nest, considering it's going to stack with Lesson....60% a kill will be interesting.

Edit - I just realized that the wizard griping about necros getting 10 AAs in five minutes a while ago was a prophet.

[Xislaben]

I wonder how much ppl who lost hundreds of k of plat will feel about 48 hours of 2x xp? :)

[GnekroeGnomicon]

I think it is pretty sad actually, that they expect everyone that is affected to feel better and not complain by throwing a weekend of free xp to everyone.

It is nice that this is available, but for the many people that were affected that have lost their corpses etc, and for all the exp camps that will be taken this weekend, and for all the people that can't exp this weekend - I think it is a minor "gift". They should make a /claim for another 10 dose xp potion, or a short stack of them, so that people can use it as they will and the server's camps won't be entirely congested this weekend.

To be honest as long as teh market isn't terribly affected by the "tainted" goods then this whole thing affects me little, but I feel bad for all those that are stuck in limbo that were only rolled back because they did some form of a trade with a "tainted" account.

69/1 won't be camped...

[GnekroeGnomicon]

69/1 won't be camped...That is a very good point, but I still feel that their "reparations" are small and should be a /claim of some sort so that everyone that was affected can get something out of it - whether works weekends, inability to get in instances, lost corpse/gear etc...

[Felicite]

Just one of the 40 in my guild.. which is one of my 5 accounts.

The other four accounts have handed the fifth many items to sell in the last 48 hours, including most of my 70 Mage's armor (robe and most visible slots) to sell. Trader rolled back, no one else. So.. my naked Mage's stuff is "poof" and he is still naked. But.. oh well.

In the course of those transactions.. the rolled back character handed an aug he bought TO one of my other character/accounts (Enchanter) and she was not rolled back.

It's just a mess.. but at this point I would loose just as much value in new spells and things if all of them were rolled back.. things other people in the guild have given the naked Mage to sell.

Unless they rolled back FV.. this is about the best I can do. I am out a Fabled Tol Robe and few 100k in odds and ends. Call it 400k all told.

So, I deleted my petitions and I rebuild.

Double XP for the 10-12 hours I might get to play during the weekend is.. so? I figure I was within a day or two of raising the million plat for:

Flowing Fabric of Understanding

Now I have lost about half of my acculated sales and inventory. I am just thrilled.

But.. stupid enough to go on.

Still no double xp for stromm, and no explanations either.

Sony says: 'INCOMING! ~~High hard one~~ Only one per patch!'

OK.. that was the funniest thing.. ever.

You want to know the funnier thing?

No one *in* my entire Guild have ever *done* that mission. In fact we have done (total all members):

2 Halloween Gods of Olde
1 70.3
Still haven't gotten around to Naggy.

So, so, sad. I ran into a full group of Resolution people about to zone into a Hive instance and I wanted to ask "why aren't you all in Highhold?"

[Dranul]

I'm proud to say I've only done the Naggy mission, 70.3, and the fairie mission. Only reason why I did the fairie mission was because I was hoping it was as fun as the Naggy mission. When it was even more monotanous than kiting, I decided never to do a MM again, simply because they're boring. Though I have to admit that I liked 70.3, if only because 1) you can do it with a PU group and know you'll succeed no matter what and 2) just because it's cool being a rogue and unequipping the daggers for mob-like dps.

I really could not play outside my usual 4ish hours a night. Last night we did a few Notebooks with six people. I got something like 60 AA over the weekend.

More noteable is the Giftee Necro that was 55 on Friday and is 66 now.

The Wizard we had not seen for months that "popped in" last night at 68.5 and camped at 69.5.

That and the shear number of Giftee's with Blood Defenders equiped this morning that did not last week.

I feel much as I did after the Fabled Orgy last year. Awww.. it's over.. thank god, now I can rest. I wish coulda played more than my few hours, I coulda caught Usul.

[Rijak]

i was in raids half the weekend, per usual... but actually picked up almost 20 AAs, which is about a month's worth for me

picked up my clicky invis... very nice B)

[Xislaben]

I must have increased my aa base by over 10%, maybe 60 aas total, and I camped signet mobs and did some raids over the weekend :)

[Jebasiz]

Heh..all the cool necs got packrat 5 for 5 this weekend! I suck and got innate see invis, innate agi and erm..other stuff not worth mentioning.

[Xelgadis]

Seeing as there's nothing useful left to buy for me:

First Aid
New Tanaan Crafting Mastery
Dead Mesmerization
Dire Charm
Fearstorm

I could have done more, but what's the point really? I did more "enjoyable" things over the weekend, like finishing my sk's Greenmist (http://lucy.allakhazam.com/item.html?id=5127). After 1.0 on 2 characters, Cabilis class quest on 2 characters, old VP key on 1 char (half done with the other). I've about had my fill of Kunark era quests (Tests of Patience) for a while. And people complain about Breakdown in Communication being a sucky quest... I have no sympathy.

[Zeller TP]

EQ feels a lot like Diablo lately.

[Xebitikz]

I maxed PoP defensives, and FT cap wee!
