Perhaps we wouldn't have those problems if the level of mobs will be increased, just like exp is increased. And stay so. It's discouraging and deceiving to push to a level you want so you can tame or hallu a certain mob and once you get there, you have that advantage removed. Leveling is not exactly a piece of cake, we've spent a lot of time doing this.

This is how I feel Samuel is treating me (I speak for myself). I am like the baby in the video.

But if everything is changed then trap/tame lvls etc should also be different I guess. So instead of being able to tame Black Mags for example at 26, now they would be tameable at 40 or whatever level is correct for x8 exp? Just doesn't seem right. Or are we leaving things like that as they were on Euro, but changing things that provide an advantage such as TU'ing some mobs and Hallucinating some mobs? Which again, isn't the right way to go.

The main thing that would sort it all would be higher level content, as people are outlvlng the current content way too fast.

I think the issue here is referring to it as a ''bug'', insinuating that people are bug exploiting for hallucinating mobs that, at their current lvl, they should be able to hallucinate. Taming foxes could be considered a bug as they should be undead and therefore not able to be tamed, but hallucinating a mob that you're at the correct lvl for isn't a ''bug'', it's a benefit/reward for reaching a high lvl.

Yeah I understand where you are coming from - its like where would be the cut off point. Unfortunately not changing the mob levels from the start has caused this.

It depends what Sam wants to do they are his files at the end of the day. The problem will be if he decides to change the mob levels accordingly the same problem will occur with everyone. In the long term this is the right way to do it - but he will face some wrath and probably a lower server count.

Its unfortunate for people aiming to reach high levels like WG, etc.

Viper lvl didn't change as I still can TrapHexagon/Repulse them.

Hmmm thats wierd...I don't know how the db works correctly but I assume if you changed the mob level it should automatically adjust the level for it to be LR,Entrap,TU,Tame,Hallu,Repulse,Trap etc etc

ATM it's easier to screw over only the highest lvls. What future holds is yet to come. Healthy thinking that.

Can't understand why these have been changed, if everyone's happy in the first instance. Yes i understand there's been some complaining in the first instance however like the above poster mentioned it will reduce the player count in the long run.
Although like samuel said, he's not bothered how his actions affect the user count. But why spend hours and hours if the outcome is going to be a lower user count? Doesn't seem logic to me.. but if it makes him happy then that's all that matters ^^

Yea the mob lvl wasn't changed per se, I think I read that he just put in a modifier that makes the mob non-hallucinationableabelagelabalbele. So you can trap/tame/repulse still, but just can't hallucinate it, even if you were level 150. Same for TU on some mobs I think.

I think WGs main concern is that he hasnt raised the vipers mob level as she can still rep and trap hex them but rather hes just made them permanently un-hallu-able

Vipers are just an example. Same goes for Foxes or any high lvl mob thus making Hallucination skill useless.

Samuel pretended that by saying Hallu shouldn't work on bosses (which I agree) it will take eyes out from the real truth.
- Hallucinating certain mobs (similar to TU and NoTame, there are level 57/58 players ingame that can hall bosses).

i dont like slating the guy whos running the server, specially as hes doin a good job otherwise, but this is just silly, fair enough u shouldnt be able to hallu/tu bosses or real sub bosses, but standrd mobs is standard currency, its the whole point of the skill, imagine making a skill that can only be used on mobs at lvl 0-40, how useful is that to anyone over lvl 40...?
ur actlng like these skills unbalance the game a great deal when its just not the case, should i get to lvl 55 and still have to tbolt archers when i go to bdd? surely the point of being higher level than the mobs is that u can use skills lke these on them effectivly?

side note: fix firewall/entrapment, tired of posting in bug secon and being ignored lol

aside from the little moan, good job geez, keep it up

Blizz was adjusted already, hitting 2 times, I don't know if "LOL" was a good reply to your question also.

Met should just cancel when you get hit and problem solved. High damage but situational skill.

He'd been working on the server all Sunday... maybe he decided to go AFK and do other things?

Seriously give him a break, or you will not have a server to play.

Why is it silly?
Problem is that the nothing else to do people out level the content. Same as every other server. Exploiting helps this happen too.
............................................
On euro few if any taos got high enough to hallu vipers. Just because you can level faster easier here doesn't mean you should be able to hallu them. All the people braying on about "I could before I could on USA"(please don't drag that into it You all know USA was set up as a business not for the game)
Just take a look at the overall game. Wizz tu ing almost every mob in the caves Violet said there's plenty other ways to level and so do other wizards.(even without exploit taming foxes)
Let's get real about euro too. There were no updates patches or fixes for years. So anything in the later content might need adjusting. Like being able/unable to hallu vipers or tame mobs. I would suppose that older euro content is probably balanced but see in as hardly anyone got over 50 any of the post 50 or even post 45 skills should be subject to tweaking and balancing for the good of the game, not the convenience of individuals.

Just to clarify, because WildGirls answer was taken completely out of context in my opinion...

Every update that has been done WildGirl and Violet have something very negative to say, if the update is directly catered to make them stronger then a post and/or pm is received with a very unwelcome way of trying to get there point across...

Thanks for making Hallucination an useless skill. Can cast TrapHexagon on vipers and Hallu not. Why does this skill even exists ?

Make this server a big arena, give players same kit, let them fight each others until they get bored because you managed to kill everything else.

Is a clear example of something I have to put up with every week... Instead of saying something along the lines of "Hallucination is no longer working, is this on purpose?"...

My response of "lol" was simply a response to a long line of arrogant moans from WildGirl...
