Oo... LDoN 2.0... Looking forward to AA's for mercs also.

 

[Teichou]

I dont use mercs to much...but I bet it would be nice...

 

[Chanticleer]

it will be nice for Wizard mercs and rogue mercs to see their aa tab

LDON 2.0 screams afk botting.

 

[Redbot]

If they make the content dynamic enough (e.g. traps for rogues/bard) it could trip up afk macros. I wonder if they're considering macro'ing at all.

We can always sell our specialty classes and just do warriors & clerics :p

 

[Sym]

WTS warriors and clerics. lmao.

I wish they would do Epics again, like the 3.0's or something.

How was it hacked?

 

[thg]

They're already figuring out how to get around some of the silly crap. AKA if they put in traps, then only add in disarm classes after the instance is gotten and instanced, thus avoiding the need to program the ability to disarm the traps....

thats basically epic 3.0.. atleast the raid ones.. its a hell of alot easier though than the previous epics, but its their nice way of doing a semi epic quest for a decent weapon, even though they said they will not be doing any more epics

 

[william12]

Don't worry they're only scaled on your level not classes in the group. The question is will they use currency from them to buy gear like LDON ? If so Get them on level 90s do them on level 100s
