1. Many don't go because of gear and/or participation rules. Maybe we need to change rules if they don't let to people go instead of deprive fun people who following this rules? 2. Many go for the fun of it and teamwork aspect, not necessarily the bonus. Well, remove bonus and look how many will left. 3. Many go and do nothing or next to nothing yet get a huge bonus. I thought, you banning such kind of players, aren't you? For this purpose you even made no bonus for people our of a/d range. 4. There are daily issues about acceptable gear and participation. Yeah, you made also 14 hours cooldown... Btw, what do you think of separate 120-200 to 120-140, 140-160, 160-180 and 180-200? 1. People without gear can be effective, as long no dragons attacking 120 a/d rangers or they don't risk to get raped by 5 Giants at once. 2. In such 120-200 people with 120 a/d getting just few gc drops, using a lot of resources for tanking for 160-170s people. I tanked nasps from 120-140 a/d while somebody 160s attack and get the drop. For now situation is better, but still there are a lot of people who are below 150 a/d. 3. People with 160-170s a/d are just enjoying such invance, firstly killing stuff which can kill people with 120-140 a/d, then start to kill mobs which 120-140 people can't kill. This way they deprive weaker players to do some useful job for a team and getting most of the drops. Here, I think, real problems of why people don't do team work and so on.

Ok, let me give you some ideas what will happens if you will do such changes: 1. If you will remove additional exp bonus - what is the point to play invances then? Much safer will be just to stay on spot, because no dragons will attack you while you fighting leg orcs or cockatrices, for example. 2. Less people play invance - less deaths, less rosto selling - less money for teh_god. Personally, if you will remove bonus at the end - I'll stop doing invances. 3. Make 1.5-2x times exp from mobs - well, maybe it will keep people motivated to fight and die, but not much. Wait 20 minutes til it starts, lose spot just for 10-20 minutes of active fighting with 1.5-2x exp and then lose your spot or so on - for me, it's also doesn't worth it. 4. Well, invances and instances are main way to have fun and some profit in the game. Radu already buried instances after some updates and stivy still locking Red Dragon - buying scales from his bots for 4kgc each while I can shoot RD and get scale for 1.5kgc. According to crap drop from instances sometimes it doesn't even cover scales, and good chance to lose rosto of course. If you will change invances and make it useless for people - I don't think it worth to play EL anymore, except once per week do WTF insta with friends until Radu will bury it too. 5. I didn't get the idea about gatekeeper - what do you want to do. I thought, for now he also gets same exp bonus as other players, and he does his work very well so far. And most interesting question for me: Why you don't like invances as-is they are at the moment?

Why it run in infinite cycle not on the tit chains though?

Well, I would vote for both - increase attributes to 52 at least, and for increase overall cap. PS. To dudes who voted "No, unless increase OA caps" - while doing that you'll lose both

Greeting fighters! I'm looking for PvP partner, who want to be pr0 tank (like I want to be). I prefer partners, who have a lot of Instinct and without any Reasoning (or can remove Reasoning if have). Skeptic perk is also nice thing to have for have training more predictable. This is long-term project, I can buy GuildMap with Guard Bot even for this project if I will find good partner(s). Right now I'm 134/138 a/d, but I can apply people from 120 to 150 a/d, but it can depends on details. My attributes at this moment are: p/c/r/w/i/v 48/48/4/4/16/24. I also have Evanescence perk. Wondering why I don't like Reasoning or don't have any ideas what is PvP? Keep reading. Have some questions or comments? Feel free to PM me in game for discussion or post a comment (and PM me in game for I read it). Here is some information about PvP: Q: What is PvP? A: PvP is fight mode when two players fight to each other for get Attack and Defense experience. It's NOT for killing players, it's just training fight - you flee after (or before in advance) you will get first 15 hits (otherwise you will not get more experience) and re-engage to combat again. Q: What kind of PvP exists? A: There are PvP for Attack experience and PvP for Defense experience: 1. For Attack people have a lot of Reasoning and use bones for successful hits each other. They getting a lot of (or mostly) attack experience and don't hurts each other a lot. 2. For Defense people don't use weapons at all, use Shields and Unicorn Medallion (for get defense bonus). They hit each other very rare and make just few damage. So they use very few Healing stuff. I'm looking for partner for PvP for Defense. Q: What attributes are good and bad for PvP? A: Here I will answer about PvP for Defense only. Physique and Coordination is mandatory for doing instances, because of Bag (EMU). They both a bit bad for PvP 1. Coordination gives you reactions for avoid hits, it's good for you, but also gives you dexterity - it's bad for your partner. 2. Physique is good for you (because of HP and toughness), but bad for partner (you make him more damage). So in this case It's not a problem for me, full Physique and Coordinations are welcome. 3. Reasoning is definetely bad for PvP for defense, because you dodge hits more rare = less def experience, and partner have to use more resources for heal. 4. Will - more or less neutral attribute, so it's ok to have it, but if you don't actually need it - you can shift it for more important instinct. 5. Instinct - this is essential attribute for PvP for Defense. It can help you to dodge hits = more often experience and rare healing. 6. Vitality - a bit more useful than Will, but still not very useful. It's just help you to reduce amount of damage you get - but better to buy instinct for you don't need to reduce amount of damage often. PS. Don't forget about Will and Vitality give you Mana points, which is important for your main tank activity - Tanking. So keep it balanced. Q: What afterwards of long time PvPing? A: Pros: 1. You getting a lot of defense experience. With one partner I was able to get up to 8-9k pure def exp per minute. 2. Your defense leveling going very fast and it's very good for tank. 3. Actually, you getting much more experience per minute if you PvPing rather tran training monsters and healing much less. Your overall leveling will going faster. 4. You can become something like 130/150 a/d and still be able to go to 120-140 and will be welcome tank. Cons: 1. Your attack leveling going very slow. But you don't need it if you are tank. Anyway, if you will do dailies, invances, regular monster training while your partner offline or busy - you will get attack experience too. 2. You will not get drops (like you would get if you would prefer monsters farming (but you will get much more experience and monsters spots can be occupied, especially on Day of Sun-Tzu). Q: Does Skeptic Perk good or bad for PvP? A: It's definetely good to have Skeptic Perk for PvP: 1. If you have green attack astro - it's bad for your partner. 2. If you have red attack astro - it's good for your partner. 3. If you have green defense astro - it's good for you. 4. If you have red defense astro - it's bad for you. 5. Astro doesn't affect on experience points, you getting. 6. If you have time, but bad astro for pvp - you can't do it, or it will be a nightmare. Q: Does Evanescence perk is good for PvP? A: Yes, it's definetely good to have, it's give you 10% chance to dodge critical hit and get experience. Q: Does Mirror Perks good or bad for PvP? A: It depends: 1. If you are same about your partner a/d, it's will not affect your training often 2. If someone has higher a/d and mirror perk - it's also doesn't affect on PvP much. 3. If someone lower a/d and has mirror perk - it's bad for his partner. PS. On tanking castellan Mirror Perk can help you to spawn Giants on your head and usually it costs a rosto to players. Have more Questions this FAQ doesn't cover? Feel free to ask, I'll add most interesting

Thanks for info, InfectioN, it seems, if you will have more vitality - you will get less damage or will not get it at all in pvp (except crit hits) - I think, it's really good advantage.

Hm... Thanks for interesting point about Will. Let me comment it a bit. Cross-attributes - for Tank (and for me personally) Charm is useless, so we have on one hand Toughness and Rationality + Matter on the other hand. Except reduce amount of damage, I heard, Toughness always helps you to don't break your armor. Matter is definetely good for Tank. Rationality is interesting topic. For Tank it's increase Restoration. Also gives more max amount of Action Points. That's good for tank if he use Enhanced Unicorn Medallion. Also could be good for other stuff like amber, book writing, etc. Conclusion: 1. Vitality give us reduce amount of damage + decrease chances to break armor (not confirmed) 2. Will give us more Health Points + Increase Restoration Personally about me - I will think about remove Vitality and buy Will

Symptoms: 1. EL client crashes right after start (before login screen). 2. You see something like that in EL log file: http://pastebin.com/mJUEVxAd Looking for more info: 1. Looking what packages was recently installed in /var/log/dpkg.log: http://pastebin.com/0Bd9gDKf (look for "upgrade" in line) in my case this line shown me to problem: 2013-07-15 23:50:14 upgrade libxml2:i386 2.7.8.dfsg-5.1ubuntu4.4 2.7.8.dfsg-5.1ubuntu4.5 Here we can see, updated libxml2 from version 2.7.8.dfsg-5.1ubuntu4.4 to version 2.7.8.dfsg-5.1ubuntu4.5 What did I do: 1. Ran Synaptic 2. Used filter libxml2 3. Set cursor to package libxml2 4. In main menu selected Package -> Force version 5. I had 2.7.8.dfsg-5.1ubuntu4 and 2.7.8.dfsg-5.1ubuntu4.5 version only (I hadn't 2.7.8.dfsg-5.1ubuntu4.4 in that list), so I set 2.7.8.dfsg-5.1ubuntu4 6. I did same for package libxml2-utils 7. Click "Apply" PS. Probably it can delete some programs, so be careful and watch what programs depends on libxml2 and should be removed. Good luck. PPS. I'm very rare guest on the forum, so you can contact me in game.

Today ubuntu tries to force me to install libxml after I downgraded:

Congratulations, Mr.Mind! I want to add more thanks to Radu and other EL staff for: 1. My english level was grown up from A1-A2 to C1 regards EL Now I can watch movies w/o crappy translations (which ruins the sence and fun), making new friends outside my country, I'm even trying to get a job outside my country. 2. Salary. I started to play EL in my home city where was crappy GPRS internet only (which made me Mason 2 achievement pretty easy), and I was thinking about move to the city with better internet. Also it helped me to raise my salary. Nowadays my salary 8x times more than salary which I had in my home city. 3. My character (not ingame, IRL character). I became more honorable, faithful and trustworthy, now I have a friends who really respect me and who I can trust everything. Thanks for all who helped me to reach all of it, it's really huge work and great achievements.
