Checking back at Shroud after 2 months break...

Game looks more polished. Combat is more fun now.
Sandbox mechanics still missing though... but random PKing can be fun for a while again... ;)

It is always good to make new friends in NB:



Other people are more appreciative of me killing bunch of guys in Brittany Wharf:


And I might actually go into the contract killing business...





Got banned in the forums again, after making 3 posts. Lead to a longer discussion with Berek and to my surprise we both came to an agreement... so maybe things are improving, and I might take a closer look into SotA again, since with Kor they really got a programmer who knows the game very well, and Chris making promising statements that with Release there would be more sandbox features I might like... ;)

Last but not least, the cringe of the week:

Forsaken Virtues in Community Management - Part III

Portalarium's Community Management never ceases to amuse me. Apparently a poor guy got his name changed again into something ridiculous and his mate made a post on the official forums...   "Debbie does Sota"... that name apparently offended a little snowflake and he got reported, and Community Management had to put the offender in line again! WELL DONE.

NERF ALL THE MAGIC!

For months now people complained about the power of mages. Two groups of mages were the main focus - Death and Earth mages. With the latest nerf of death magic and a nerf to all magic schools *attunement nerf* things got more out of balance than you might think. Chris said some people complained that they have to level more than one school in PVE etc, and as someone who told him that his nerf was overdone, I think he might have in parts talked about my feedback on the issue. Let me explain what the problem is here, and why magery (for high level chars) can be considered a utility school like the tactics tree now. This mainly applies to PVE Bossfights and of course PVP. A lot of the effects the nerf had, you will only notice at very high levels. So even if you might think now that your mage is doing fine in T5 zones... wait until you get past that...
