Talk:Game updates/20070405

This update is fricking huge. Took me a while to even load up the client with all those files that needed downloading. Then I log in and I need to download another 1,000+ files! Sirocco 17:01, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

Anyone else having performance (framerate) issues with this update? I suspect it's something in the new audio code, and how Vista doesn't like EAX, but I'm not sure. More testing is needed. --Phydeaux 17:03, 5 April 2007 (CDT)
 * Ok, more testing, and their new audio stuff is DEFINITELY the problem. I can't log in without my game crashing - unless I turn all my sound off. Then I can log in just fine. --Phydeaux 17:54, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

Ugh, hero battles.. &mdash; Skuld 17:08, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

I'm fine with performance, and my ping got back to normal values after 3 days of extreme lag spikes. --87.10.160.102 17:08, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

Damn this, it keeps giving me err 40, i guess no hope for gaile today... --Geon Arcan 17:09, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

I'm done updating this page. Someone else do it now :P (PS: 60 Mb at 51%. Looks like a 120 meg update or aprox). &mdash; Poki#3, 17:10, 5 April 2007 (CDT)
 * 132MB. I watched o.O  &mdash; [[Image:Fin_sig.gif|User:Kyrasantae]] kyrasantae   17:25, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

Too many great updates and bug fixes to mention and praise them all. Great job, one of the best updates we've seen in a long time! -- (gem / talk) 17:27, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

My monk took a pretty big hit with this one. GoLE... - Krowman (talk • contribs)  17:31, 5 April 2007 (CDT)
 * A.net is killing off all the dual class synergy. I think it's intentional. --8765 17:33, 5 April 2007 (CDT)
 * GoLE for non-Eles is still better than it used to be before it affected two spells, so I'm not too unhappy about that. But for a primary Elementalist, it seems bit silly to save 18 energy...maybe even 20 at very high rank? Because at that level of Energy Storage you've already got so much max energy it wouldn't seem to help much. If they introduce new spells that cost more than 25, or cost 25 with a really short recharge (like Lightning Hammer) then I could see the point. Otherwise though...

 * GolE was better than Offering of Blood, Mantra of Recall, Energy Drain -- all these skills are elites, and yet an unlinked skill is better. See why it had to go? &mdash; Skuld 17:54, 5 April 2007 (CDT)
 * OoB was nerfed from 10% to 20% Health sac, Energy Drain was also nerfed, don't remember how much. Seems like they should have improved these sorry elites instead of nerfing GoLE. [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 17:58, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

Necromancer
After this nerf... why? Why would anyone consider the following builds on a Necro primary :MM / BiP. Worst idea ever in my oppion.--68.102.128.17 18:04, 5 April 2007 (CDT)
 * What other primary would you use for a MM? MMs still get the 10 instead of 8 minion cap... for BiP, I guess it makes sense, but still. (At 13 Blood Magic BiP is +6, 12 it's +5) --Phydeaux 18:09, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

Pet Bug?
Since this update I've noticed my pet behaving very strangely. If I allow a mini-pet to wonder round in an explorable area my hearty pet wolf starts running around it. It looks like it's gone mad just running over it none-stop. Backwards and forwards, backwards and forwards. Should this be happening? By the way I'm loving the new pet window :) ! -- Zoidberg  18:13, 5 April 2007 (CDT)
