Hey there.

If you ever discard a Quest Item, contact Support. If it was recently discarded (last few days), it'll show in records. If not, a quick screenshot of your Quest Log, showing you receiving the item from the quest will get it replaced.

I have sent you a replacement Viper Strike Longsword.

~ Grim

That's fine or release them in a new chest?

Or a mix of the two. 

~ Grim

Players aren't playing that way anymore. They want to minimize effort to accomplish the same goal.

Not an exaggeration at all - see attached:image.png

Uniques already see some form of use depending on what stats are needed on filler items - rares are overlooked. You could likely get away with doing both, however, if you made rares 0.02% per point and Uniques 0.01% or something along those lines.

Well, I'd say it SHOULD in order to have value and not be a potion that's DoA. I'd like these things to help the game economy some.

As would I. Bear in mind, people leveled and played the game just fine without some of these buffs for a great many years.

I do think you need to drop the whole DOA thing though. It might be to you, but not everyone.
 

When it was initially proposed ~12 Years ago, it was likely a pretty solid idea to inject something into the game. Now, commons, outside minor arena use for those with HP, are frag items.

What on earth makes you think the buff idea is 12 years old? Exaggeration, thy name is "Toreth"!
 

If I might offer a suggestion? What if Trendy were changed to "Rare" instead of "Common?" They don't have the same level of crafting bonuses, so less bonuses I mentioned before, too - changing to "Rare," though might would get some to farm some champs for their items some as they could have new-found viability across all level ranges. It's an instant boost to nearly every aspect of the game, and it allows the potion to remain a more modest level while seeing use.

I suppose we could change it to Rare or Unique but that pushes its release back to whenever I can get some code time. Probably when I get the Loyalty Stashes implemented.

~ Grim

Hey there.

Right, first swing at new Crate content, I reckon I'll spread the various frag stashes across all existing crates. I think maybe one new potion per existing one. Potions, I'm tempted to put into two new chests? Opinions?

Potions I reckon we'll add:

Yeah, takes time for Global spawns to despawn. Watching the progress, and once complete, will return to my holiday.

- Grim

Sword is not going anywhere, don't worry.

- Grim

Hey there.

So, what we're looking at for the Crates is as follows. 

Possible Potions: 

Questions.

Would we want these added to existing Crates? Or brand new ones?

Quest Items. Used for inventing upgraded Epics? If so, likely one of due to rarity/scarcity?

~ Grim

Hey there.

There's requests for Frag Stashes in this very thread, so there is interest. I mentioned potions in my post above, so yeah.

Loyalty Stashes I've asked for. We'll see if it can be coded. If so, I'm happy to introduce a Loyalty Stash that functions like the Mystic (Shard) Stash.

~ Grim
