Add heroic and epic versions of defend the keep. Heroic gives 3 crystal coins and Epic gives a random enchanted weapon (able to be done once per account daily).

Add in a random artifact merchant to the crystal coin shop. Buyable once per week per account for 30 crystal coins.

Oh my god Yes!

I still think we need an endless defense map + leader boards for some healthy competition, but this is a great idea!

Please make private and local chats a bit more saturated. Lately I've been missing them in the waves of white text from combat or fishing because they're very muted tones. It would be great for them to stick out just as much as global, trade, or party. I even asked another player right before posting for their opinion on the matter and they replied "No, You're right, PMs are virtually invisible"

Anyone else have this issue? Opinions seemed split when I asked about it over global.

Hiya, that was me :)

Although I like the idea that "whispers" are quiet and difficult to hear, I've been away for so long that I often have questions I want to ask folk. Doing it on global seems out of place sometimes now that it's cross server so I tend to ask other players online whom I know by /msg. And then I frequently miss the reply... :knife:

Combat messages could be moved to the aux box. Or does that still do other things?

Enchantment transfer recipe:
Requires GM Weaponsmithing and GM Enchanting

Deconstruct enchanted weapon --> Essence of [Spell]. Eg Decontruct a Hatchet VOG to get a Essence of VOG.

To apply an enchantment to a weapon:
1 Mythical Material + X Essence of [Spell] with enchanting wand = Rune of [Spell]

Where X depends on the spell enchant:

VF: 1
AM : 1
XMP : 2
VAM : 3
OG4 : 3
IVPY : 3
KXQ : 4
IMJ : 4
VOG : 4
AEP : 5
XJ : 5
IJO : 5

Use smith hammer with Rune of [Spell] and weapon + 5/6/7 in your inventory, blam! Blackrock hatchet of VAM.

Obviously Xs can be tweaked, but requiring multiple enchanted weps to decon and mythical material limits the amount of custom enchanted weapons in the game.

P.S. Idea stolen/inspired by Sephiroth/Onyxt suggestion.
P.P.S. As compensation for being able to transfer IMJ to weps, Soulstealer should be VIMJ instead of IMJ.

Add an upvote / downvote or agree / disagree function to the forums.

I.e. I agree with L.C. / Sephy

A RUNE of XXX spell sounds cool enough. But maybe that's just the diablo in me.

Extells Tower TP Pass.

50 Addy coins - Unlimited TP uses in Extells tower.

I'll pay happily for a unlimited use pass, rather than spend one coin at a time.

Ah and remember the Bakyre secret room of Teleports. AH.... memories. For coins they ain't bad but they shouldn't be cheap either.

we need more items that you can really make character builds around!!!

I still want to see artifact sets give bonuses i.e.

Full frenzy gives +25% damage
Full shard crystal gives +25% damage reduction
Full nightstalker give +25% dodge
ect ...

as well I would love if every creature type could drop essence that could be crafted into set artifacts like:

goblins set could give you stealth upon taking damage while below 50% hp
orcs set could give you + 15% hp or bonus rage generation
snake set? poison on hit!
hydra gives x3 poison damage?
dragons gives a chance to cast VF and casts VM at 25% hp
gremlin steals random food :p
vampires give XMP on hit?
all i want is a test server for maped then ill be happy ...

It could already be in and I just have volume too low but a Warhorn sound whenever happy hour is activated would be cool.

A very low random chance that monsters advance through double doors/endless darkness. I understand player (ab)use this particular AI behaviour as a tactical advantage. I hope a very low chance for mobs to behave unexpected might not be frustrating but actually increase the thrill for the players.

Frenzy gear should piss you off more and increase rage or lower rage restrictions on specials.
5% less rage req per piece worn.

Full set increases rage output by oh 10-25% per hit. (Can be coupled with race and runed weapons).
ZUPS!!!!
