Say, is the relic dropping totally random?

I've killed 36 gnomes/elves till now; and still haven't found a single item. Be it potions or relic.

We can be certain that nothing more than zilch is being done about it. The dominant side always wins and furthermore the lower levels are trampled upon yet again. There's simply no way that anyone <35 can afford to waste such high amounts of SE in the hopes of obtaining a relic. Not to mention earning a spot in the top 10 of the event; it's simply impossible.

I'm really baffled as to why lower levels are even allowed to participate in these events since there is nothing to gain from them; apart from the frustration of such a draconian system.


Honestly, the response I'm expecting is that lower levels have an increased chance, but we both know that's just the usual bull as the map event's "participant percentage" which none had yet challenged my allegations.

Many thanks, I'll give it a try.



Now, about another issue. I say we need a balance of numbers.

What am I saying? Right, well here's the thing. This world is dominated by a single horde (Emerald) and there's practically no competition whatsoever.

Now what I'm trying to say here is that the ratio gets balanced out. Meaning an ideal of 1:1:1:1.



So, how is that achieved? Two steps are involved.


1) Delete all the inactive accounts. Say 5-6+ months inactivity, and carried out once a month. A monthly culling or "weeding" for a metaphor.

2) Limit all new players to selecting a horde which has less than a :0.8-1 ratio. Given time the game will balance itself out and proper competition will take place as I'm sure it's meant to be.

Step number 2 will also be profitable for the company owners of Doomlord since the option to switch horde for AS can be left as is; yet perhaps with an increase in AS cost.


Optional: Perhaps a bonus of some sort could be given to current Emerald players who wish to switch horde. A free switch or perhaps some additional perks.


The game right now is under the following situation: Everyone wants to be in the dominat side and day after day more players are shifting to the dominant side. In my opinion, that is catastrophic by itself and given enough time, the horde system will crumble upon itself.

Asin the same sort of limitation as per restoring a squeezed pet whilst doing the squeezing quest. "You cannot restore an untrained pet or one which was squezzed while a quest requiring squeezing was active."

There could be a hidden limitation on the skill when doing a particular quest. Either that or perhaps the skill ain't high enough to make a difference?


Unless it really doesn't work and no one noticed until now. But that sounds far-fetched since the same skill is probably used in the Hungarian version as well.

Any idea what level you need to do so?

Currently mine's level 20

Caveat, could the duel quest have something to do with the issue?

I intend to max that skill myself. We can do some testing later on. Currently busy waging a war and killing an epic though; tomorrow should be fine.

Been doing some digging around. Found an article on the Hungarian wiki.

Chrome managed to translate most of the stuff. There's no spoiler option nor text colour on these forums so read on ONLY if you wish to know more.


Zarknod's Awakening: 1 phase


Funny how you feel changes, which are in the air. Somehow, though it would be darker, day, the air is denser, it would be difficult ... The wind blows less frequently, and even funny, drunk flutter. The rapid growth of plants came to a halt, despite the frequent rains in many places the grass kókadozik, dying. Hordaprancsnokod complaining that something may be wrong lélekkúttal, the energy of the load much more slowly than normal. Soon you will know that the anomalies are caused by a legendary creature of your dreams. This creature was somehow able to survive the enemy attack and in the far north, deep sleep for a thousand years of dreams iceberg. If the creature does not wake up soon, if things turn worse ...
The task of the challenges requiring végzeturak, not even just any level. All over the world can be found in the ancient civilizations tleikan manapilonjai. These structures using magical energy to concentrate unimaginable distances. The pilonokat lélekenergia help you to activate, the more you use it lélekenergiát, the more energy you focus on.

Zarknod Awakening: 2 phase


The assisted manapilonok could melt the iceberg, a thousand-year dream Zarknod deep sleep! The watchful Zarknodra energiaburok remains intact, this breakthrough does not require little energy. As before, the manapilont now activate that Zarknodot energiaburkot weaken protection.

Zarknod Awakening: 3 phase


Manapilonok now directly generate the energy to be használnotok that Zarknod elgémberedett energiacsóvákkal bombázzátok body, initiated the circulation, and the huge creature, slow to wake up! To do this, you will need a great deal of energy. The last phase is the end - if you do everything well - a great creature wakes up! I wonder what will be a horde, which is the case in order to make the most of, and reward the nagyúrtól?
The pilonokat lélekenergia help you to activate, the more you use it lélekenergiát, the more energy you focus on. (The winner will receive their reward from Horde members who are activated for at least 30 times in the Pilon)

Zarknod woke up!


The incredible level of végzeturak managed to wake up together through the most powerful creatures in ancient times, Zarknodot! The drakolderek powerful dragons and other creatures are descendants, among them the largest Zarknod, who alone is able to stop time and defy the universe. Now that felébresztettétek, ended the anomalies are caused by bad dreams Zarknod. The Lord is pleased to see that the planet eltakarodott the Enemy, but saddened by the devastation caused. Perhaps he could ask help ... at least potentially, most powerful fajotok contact him (see Legend). Zarknod coming in any sort of purification taken to the world, most of which they share, who have been part of felébresztéséből.


3 the world in September 10-I, the first 12 world ended on the third incident Zarknod Awakening phase. The V2 is now, on 15/09/2009, managed to wake up. The players were rewarded tulajdonságnövekedést (spent in the LE and the elves have been killed, depending) and increase good fortune, spent őskövet and reduce the possibility of infection. The winner is the worlds hordes of members and received Zarknod medal.

Specifically:

The victorious hordes, those members who took part in this, and at least 30 times in the activated Pilon, a medal Zarknod (-1 sec during the hunt) and 10 aranydukátot will be rewarded! The same fee they receive, who both finished top ten ranking list.

Sapphire won the world Mind3 Horde.

Activating Manapilon

* The activation cost of a minimum level of 50 hp. The next two visits manapilon cselekvéspontba place.
The event rate during the period lélekkutak half load. If you enter the game and the last 24 hours is not activated the Pilon, the varázspontod half the speed of regeneration.

(When activated, the times spent LE 0.0108 is used, this factor depends on the szintedtől and hordádtól) 36.szinten of 0.0111, and hair, worn diamond! It is likely that the pronounced increase in the level 0.0003 factor (only the diamond hordáról beszélekk!)

The battles are térkapusnak manókkal to sign up. It is no coincidence that the manapilonok is fighting for, even térkapuban. Furthermore, just get the defeated manapilonoktól objects, such as térkapus dögöktől, but not rings / necklaces, but magic and gyógyitalokat and various relics. Someone has already completed a one manótól haragsmaragdot, I do not know whether it's true, but ... "(True)
Of course, if normal, and a detailed description, it may not be guessing.

The battle since:
Visits to the nearest 2 manapilont cselekvéspont price. The place is kept by an evil elf!

The relics obtained manóknál

Name Type Comment
transzcendális Focus relic The projection transzcendális skill effectiveness by 50% increase
Mágiaelnyelő relic Magic elnyelésedet increases, depending on the extent szintedtől (eg: 72 +108 spell level absorption ad)
Portyagömb relic Portyázhatsz one more time, one after the other without the disadvantages that come from it






So I'm guessing:

Phase 1: 50% increased transcendal projection.
Phase 2: Manadrainer (Magic absorption increase.)
Phase 3: Locket of the tireless (Lets you duel once more p/hour.)




I'm guessing this would be the "Medal of Doom" reward. - "The victorious hordes, those members who took part in this, and at least 30 times in the activated Pilon, a medal Zarknod (-1 sec during the hunt) and 10 aranydukátot will be rewarded! The same fee they receive, who both finished top ten ranking list." So, what does "aranydukátot" mean? And does the "top 10 ranking list" refer tot he top 10 pylon activators/ SE spenders?




Now here's the big questions:

"Sapphire won the world Mind3 Horde." So, what did the winners get and what did the losers get?

Are the relics obtainable by every horde or just the winners of the event, or do they drop from the pylon guardians?

In the case of only the winners obtaining the relics, well it would be worthless participating as the Emerald horde will win the event. The AS, potions and SE rewards won't start to match up to the SE spent activating the pylons.



This is interesting though:

"The players were rewarded tulajdonságnövekedést (spent in the LE and the elves have been killed, depending) and increase good fortune, spent őskövet and reduce the possibility of infection." So, +Luck and - Infection? How is that obtainable?

If only the legend section uses better English and paragraphs.

That would really be quite an improvement. Currently it's damn hard to read and understand it all.

Healing more than one pet at a time.

Currently whilst healing a pet you can't heal another one, even if this message appears next to it: "You can heal again in 0 time."

Using horde making with several pets who all require healing is a headache and takes ages to heal them all.

Well, you're kind of asking us to spend money on a box which has no label, or sending money to another account without knowing the reason for doing so.

In my case (and I'm sure others as well) spending SE on something, without knowing what that something is or does ain't qualified as "fun". I need a target and the rewards reaped by achieving the target. If the reward is deemed useful, then the target will be reached with maximum efficiency. Otherwise the whole thing is just as obscure as a Nigerian pet scam.


So, please spill some beans.

A scoring system just might be it.

That's quite a good idea imo.

Don't bother with anything maths or shape related..

Some time ago this question of mine was rejected: "What shape is the Earth", the answer was "Spheroid" and was considered an arithmetic/special knowledge. In the 21st century the shape of the planet we live on is specialist knowledge, huzzah at that. Who would have guessed eh..? And here I was thinking that it was actually a cube!


Thus, I simply chose not to bother anymore (apart from the couple of rants here and there). I still stand by my argument of months ago that the system needs a change. Loads of suggestions were made but no one heard us out; it's simply pointless to post anything related to quizzes.

Why players still bother trying to figure out possible questions; incessantly hoping for that one stroke of luck that it gets approved is beyond my mental capacity. In the end, it's a couple hundred SE and simply not worth the effort required or the excruciating frustration that is caused by this idiotic system. Let the verifiers fill the damned database up themselves, since it appears that they are the only ones that actually understand what's actually specialist knowledge and what's not. The rest of us are simply dumbfounded trying to make a sense of something which doesn't make any sense at all.

The more players that boycott the quiz system, the higher the chances that this idiotic situation is fixed.

Read and be enlightened.

Spells have their own slot. Damage increasing skills are always worth it.

A date still needs to be added in my opinion. Things are not set in stone for eternity; in the end everything has the possibility to change.

Heck, if plants can sprout in the desert and humans can breathe in a specific liquid solution everything is possible.

Not always the case.

During wars, the amounts of SE I loot are well worth the duel points. Sometimes it ain't that good, yet one is still gaining SE for his/her clan so the trade-off is still worthwhile.



As for quiz wars. Would the ratio be effected by the number of members in a clan? If so the whole concept is biased favouring the clans full of higher levels.

Hmm, you sure about that mate?

I was under the impression that you can only upgrade 1x skill past it's max.

So, with an upgraded and maxxed skill you can further mindboost it to another +5? (ie: +10 total past vanilla max?)

Have the map event issues been fixed though?

http://forum.doomlord.net/index.php/topic,59.0

If you haven't yet read this thread ^ you really need to do so.


As for the cheating that was conducted in the quiz Olympics; I sincerely hope that ear pulling the exploiters is going to be done. Removal of all the quiz medals from the players in question would be a fair start.


Also, is there any info on the Zarknod event? i.e: what does it consist of?


And to add something offtopic - It's really good to see some admin/mod activity around here. Was really getting the feeling that everything is falling unto deaf ears.

Last I read, it was going to be on a 6 month basis.

Stekkos, do you know what the max energy harvest level is?

I think it might be 50; not sure though.

Also, "You will get a minimal SE for duels even if you can't steal that much from your target." Does this mean that the amount added by energy harvest varies depending on the SE looted?

Eg:

if looted SE <500; it gives x amount
elseif looted SE >= 5k; it gives y amount

Then these x or y extra SE are double via a max creative affinity skill?

1) You are invisible.
2) You are hiding in the catacombs.
3) Your opponent is a lower level and your duel points are set for 30 p/day which does not allow you to attack lower levels.
4) Your opponent attacked you and now has low HP.
5) Your opponent attacked you and immediately levelled too high for you to attack.
6) Your opponent attacked you and is now hiding in the catacombs.


Those are all the possibilities I can think of right now. Scry him and check them out.
