Patch Preview;
I'm happy with the way world bosses turned out. I think leveling is a lot more linear and the gap between botters and non-botters is a lot closer. I'm going to be working on Events this week and try to
get the event system complete. The event room is going to mimic the donation room in some ways. The event room will have some exclusive rewards aswell. I'm also going to be paying close attention to the way
Blasted Lands works out. I'm also working on adding more Unique Weapons that will be stronger then Holy Smiter and the other uniques. I'm trying to figure out how I will do the fishing system, the I know that
fishing will be another way to obtain gems.

[heley]

Syn we need more spawns. The 4k area now has about 12 people in it, and most of them ranging from 5-7k. There is literally nothing to kill, it takes about 10 mins to get 1 lvl. And minos at lvl 5k as a barb give such little exp mino archers only give me 192m exp, thats like 15 for 1 lvl, and 2 mino guards and i get comboed down. what am i soposed to do, bot in the 4k area with 12 other people with nothing to kill?

Your so amazing xDDD after ppl flamed you down for days you accepted eles are op, :*

 

[R3ignlasting]

So, will the server become harder or will every spawn just be increased with 3x more monsters that swarm you and deal no damage?

 

[Macabrewolfe89]

Just an idea about the mage shells. Maybe you could add a better one in but in order to get it make it kinda like a tiered piece of eq but instead of just getting 7 could make it alot higher so its actually worth to loot and maybe just bump the dmg% and redux a few more % than the weaker one.

Mage Shell is designed to be a good item for new players, if I gave it anymore reduction people will reach almost 100% reduction (immortality) with it between T5/Falcon Amulets

 

[Macabrewolfe89]

Ah alright, Could possibly just make it have more dmg % so its more usefull for everyone later?

Also anyway you could make more crafting alters? 2 for 50+ community getting a little small.. And possibly move that trash bin by alters down 1 so other people can't pull your lever.

Hey syn i like what u did with the changes to some of these vocations. Good job. And the test server was a great idea even though i never logged into it. Now it is possible to kill an ele!! omg!

Although i have now changed back to by bard, and some little things where pointed out to me there is only one thing i do not like with the vocation atm. Yes every one if aware of the low hp and mana, but now the last problem i see with this vocation is if people get you outa mana and your spamming exura vita, how are you supposed to fight back? Yea i can use mana rune + exura vita, but i cant do that all day if im Ws. So i really have to let him kill me or stair hop 24/7 to try to get rid of pz. Nothing really happened to me with that i haven't been able to fight back until i got ganked by Moonlight and Warwick and i noticed i could kill one of em with 2x Encore but i really couldn't cuz i was spamming exura vita and mana rune (exura vita causing exhaustion on Encore) I haven't tested this with BH yet so i have no idea about that Since mana rune is an action and not a healing exhaustion or if the spell exhaustion has anything to do with bh exhaustion, but ill test this at home and see. I'v also noticed this earlier in the server when i was only 2k, i had a 2k ninja on me and i could out heal him but only use my wand and 1x encore or a rare Power Chord.

Most other classes dont have a problem with this because they have a bigger pool of mana/hp so they aren't trying to spam exura as fast as we bards are. Even a ninja isnt spamming exura that fast with the high evasion rate. This also might be a problem in an Ranger, i wouldn't know because I'v only been a 2k archer in the beta era or w.e u whana call it, but at later levels they do, do higher amounts of dmg with the arrow.

Idk if this is fixable for this vocation setup, its just something i was looking at and thought way was i not useing Encore more then half the time casting it and i was like "Uhg duh healing to much, oh wait if i take that off im dead" Basically im 4.5k now and half t4 atm. So if a 3kor so ninja/ knight/ ele/ archer, that knows what he/she is doing and can do enough dps so i can only heal, the other option for me is to run in pz an try to get the first x2 encore b4 i spammm exura like hell or try to stair hop with
bh lol

It was just something i would like to point out xD

You said you wanted to see me hunt barbs, I cannot show you such privacy, but I can show you me preparing for an epic battle.

By the way, I don't see a difference between giving people free levels off of monsters that do no damage at all and being able to access a 3k area before level 3000.

It's practically the same thing. Let's stop this feud, let's face facts now. FACT: Dzot 8.6 is easy. This isn't trying to stir trouble, but barbs are the most useless vocation in game now, seeing as how ninjas or mages can tank 8 things at once as well. I botted a 500 ninja with t1 and no mage shell to 800 in thorns, where he constantly had 3-6 thorns on him at once. I'll stop making jokes about the server and start talking about actual facts. It is VERY easy to acquire t2/t3. Every piece of eq is the same, but with different tiers comes better stats.

My ideas:

- Bring the monsters' attack rate back to normal
- Reduce ninja hp to 10 or 5 while increasing evasion to a 1/4 chance of evading a hit and increase atk speed to what it once was.
- Remove the Tier merging from the top of the DP and instead hide them all somewhere in the map, as they are now (instead of placing each piece of eq down to get the new eq, just use the merging rock)
- Enclose the Deo area so botters don't accidentally lure Deo Dodec into the poof zone.
- Lower the number of monsters in each spawn (lower lvl monsters like orcs and elves) and add new areas/spawns
- Make it so the Tiered EQ is unique once again. Boots/ring = regen; armor/helmet/legs = protection + weaponry and shield = ? (I don't know what it does in your server and I don't know if you can use a separate armor in your hand/arrow slot to increase dmg/protection like I'm doing in the picture above.
- Add mana consumption to exura vita so in PvP, when you knock a mages mana out, they cannot heal as they shouldn't unless they have UH's on standy.
- Hardcore vocation and rebirth
- Add a system that only allows the person who dealt the most damage to the monster can open the loot. Make zones where bosses like Tit golem/etc are non-pvp (Idc about this, I'm not one to get PA'd. I'm tired of the QQ about PAing)
- Reduce drop rates of T1's/T2's in bosses
- Reduce time between !fast event (to compensate for boss drops and increase the EQ standing of non botters vs afk botters)
- Increase damage dealt by bosses above 1.5k (so it is a team effort on some of these bosses as well)


These are all serious suggestions/me asking for stuff. Obviously, I haven't tested it myself so maybe you can turn your test server on and make some of these changes besides the map changes like orcs, etc. PvP isn't everything, some people wish to play a RPG server for RPG.

I honestly think the ninjas would be better off with 5hp and a faster atk speed, but since people disagree with me so much, I'll say 10 hp and a faster atk speed.

Me and shadow have been balling on 8.0 dzot. We were using some teamlike tactics to kill 1 fucking terrible trio. That was a lot of fun when we killed it. We were both 700/650 when we did it. Everything we do has been a team. I'm usually the one dying because I'm playing a ninja, but that's what a challenging voc should be. Also: 700 Ninja vs 750 Ranger was an even match and it came down to me missing the donkey punch >_>.

Now, if you excuse me I have a few barb... FUCK

Also, I forget what gold nuggets are used for and I WANT the alternate mining/smithing back.

Let me make this clear, this is my server, and while I designed it around some core concepts of 'deathzot', in the process it's become a completely different server. The 8.0 version is up, you've made it clear you're enjoying yourself and you like playing it.. so play it. What I don't understand is why you keep coming back here asking me to change stuff, it's not going to happen.

 

[Pecax]

I like the server as it is now tbh. Before when i played dzot,there were no new players,just old ones. Because new players couldn't find the bosses/merging stations etc...

I find this version so much more player helpful.

I support Syn all the way

So any feedback we give is basicly no worth anything because it is your server and we should get out if we dont like it?
Sure some people bitch about EVERYTHING and have nothing constructive to add but an attidude like that is going to make the server run dry sometime.

I like alot of stuff about this version of Dzot but some things IMO should be changed.
Its more like I want different icing on my cake then me not liking the whole thing.
I agree with the the opinon that ninjas at 15 hp are too much and I also think that rangers should be able to bh and I also think we need more ways to spend our money for example.

Im in no way asking for you to fulfill all that 100% but it really sucks if you just discard someones opinion because "its not our server".
If I keep on enjoying this I might be willing to spend some money on it and atleast accepting feedback plays a role for me and im sure other people too - if you listen to the community you actually get to keep YOUR project going longer.
How is that bad?
