In a recent Live Stream, Darth Severlin asked players to suggest the next Quest Pack to become Epic. I wish to nominate The Waterworks and The Seal of Shan-To-Kor.

Spoiler Alert: This post...

Good day!

The Promise of Fire contains a Circuit Puzzle used in a very ingenious way. Here I propose another possible use of a Circuit Puzzle, where the puzzle depicts and controls the entire...

Thank you, you are very probably right, and your idea makes perfect sense. :) To my knowledge, one such dungeon exists is DDO: The Shadow Crypt

The Shadow Crypt suffers from three big problems....

Assuming no access to Feywild, Sharn, or Ravenloft, full access to all other Quests (Subscriber), Cannith Crafting Level 350, ability to purchase Augments in game with Barter Currency or Shards, and...

Congratulations! You have won a gift certificated for one small order of bread sticks with your next purchase of any large, two topping pizza.

Level 25 Single Weapon Fighting Paladin. Level 21 Challenge. 19 minutes to complete. 3 Party Favors earned.

Oh, wait. Are you all discussing the _best_ way to earn Party Favors?

Thank you, SirValentine. That seems like a wise course. Upon reflection, they can collect Equipment and Heart Seeds, too. I am very excited about bringing them up to modern standards.

Thank you, GeoffWatson! I just saw the Double Bonus Points Sale so ... time to fix two Characters.

You are right, GoldyGopher. I went back and watched the two Live Streams again. Darth Severlin definitely stated that changes to Reaper Mode were a long term goal but not for this year.

Hey.

According to the DDO Wiki and my own experiments, Cleric Spells are affected by Positive Spell Power but Heal Scrolls are not.

Is Rejuvenation Cocoon (Primal Avatar Skill) affected by...

Wait. They move as slow as molasses. This is IMPOSSIBLE!!!

Another data point: I am currently finishing up The Ruins of Threnel on Heroic Elite Difficulty. Normal (not Champion) Fire Reavers are hitting particularly hard, I believe using Flame Strike. ...

I suspect any such effort would require 'new tech' and thus a very long development cycle.

.....

Perhaps some middle ground exists. How could quest designers improve upon quests like An...

Hyper realistic Virtual Worlds will happen. A hyper realistic Virtual World based on Dungeons & Dragons will probably happen. Will that environment have a direct connection to Dungeons & Dragons...

While I very rarely use pets and never run around with evil ones, the Dretch was worth it just to see the Tricks. :D

The Kobold Shaman remains one of my favorites. The Levitate trick is great.

I do not equate 'not done before' with 'not possible'. A long list of 'impossible' things eventually appeared in DDO. During the 15th Anniversary Live Stream, the developers even discussed many of...

The kind of random dungeons I envision for DDO would go something like this:

1) Start with a space of a fixed size, say 500 meters by 1000 meters.
2) Define a list of 100 monster groups. Only...

Hello, Iriale. First off, my apologies. I misremembered what Darth Severlin said with regards Reaper Mode. They have _not_ begun work.

Darth Severlin's comments concerning Reaper Mode occur at...

Hello, Retired_Old_Gamer. I highly suggest you watch the two most recent DDO Live Streams, the one with Darth Severlin and the first two hours of the Anniversary Live Stream which included many...

If implemented in a way that supports lower Difficulty settings, random dungeons would very probably greatly increase my enjoyment of DDO.

A few years ago, my Dad introduced me to Good Old Games. ...

Player psychology definitely matters. However, the jump in experience that occurs at Reaper Mode 1 is inescapable. The kind of people who lead groups are the kind of people who chase power over all...

My objection to the idea expressed in the first post of this thread stems from the elimination of Hard and Epic Hard Difficulty. Since returning to DDO 6 weeks ago, I ran most quests at Hard or Epic...

I loved all those things about Star Wars. If they had not deleted my account during a long break, I would still play from time to time just for those features you describe.

I am getting hit harder than expected in Elite and Epic Hard quests but I could be doing something wrong. For example, a Champion Fire Reaver in The Church of the Fury on Elite hit me with something...

All of DDO is easy if you play certain Character configurations and do not care about death.

All of DDO is _way_ easier if you play in a full group. If even one Character survives, the whole...
