The problem with titans always has been and always will be that there is no incentive to kill them if you can't get the 50% secure. Why should I waste 2-4x more stamina just to get the same drop that somebody else got for being online when it spawned? Players being able to solo them was an even bigger mistake. Now you see the same person getting half a dozen kills of the Easter titans, even while their guild is on cooldown, while other guilds are left to farm three titan spawns to get enough TKP. It's a totally broken system. They should remove soloing and the 50% threshold and make every guild have to actually earn enough TKP.

 

The idea of upgrading titan epics isn't a bad one and it would certainly give them more value again. Maybe there's a system that would work if the upgrades relied on RP items rather than just combining epics. But, as is, titan hunting is a complete joke and I would hope that HCS doesn't implement upgrading without reworking how they're dropped.

Great idea if you combine the Tier system with GvG earned items on the common Epics(like the Deepwater Choker). But lets not just include the lower level Epics in this mix. Maybe a Tiered Choker of Time, but it has to be made(each tier)with a Deepwater Choker and a few(just 2)different RP items(maybe a Bob's skull and a Fang). That would give a little higher value on all of the items mentioned AND make it harder to invent(cost of the Fang is currently around 650 RP). And it will take a while to complete a Tier 5 Choker of Time based just on cost and RP. Just in case you were wondering that combo just off the top of my head is: (1)Choker of Time + (1)Deepwater Choker + (1)Bobanarts Skull + (1)Fang of Meng Zeng = (1)Tier 1 Choker of Time. This is just an example of how the mechanics could be used, and I'm not sure if I like my example...LOL!

(Ok, since I am typing this for the second time, Since my "session expired" after my first run through, and none of it was saved, know that I am typing this with anger in my heart LOL)

 

     First, I have been playing this game for a decade, off and on at times. I came back to the game before Christmas, about 5 months ago, and was pleasantly surprised by something. The something I am referring to is the resurgence of some long dead epic items. The first ones in the game in fact. The Inferno Hammer, the Steamwork Cuirass, and the Writhing Ward.  All of these items were given a considerable boost in worth, and function with the tier system. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hammer P/FF +79 stamina           Cuirass P/FF 0 stamina           WW P/FF +125 stamina

                          0 stam gain                                0 stam gain                            2 stam gain

                          0 xp gain                                    0 xp gain                                1 xp gain

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tier 5               +223 stamina                               + 240 stamina                    + 202 stamina

                          5 stam gain                                  5 stam gain                         5 stam gain

                          4 xp gain                                      4 xp gain                             4 xp gain

 

     Quite the considerable change if you ask me. And why not, the first epics in the game were experiments to be quite honest, and once others were introduced, deserved to be made "epic".

 

 

     Titan hunting used to be one of the most lucrative areas in the game, now it's just a dead husk of what it once was. Since I came back to the game I have seen titans sit for WEEKS without being cleared, and even saw a titan get cleared and the item go to an INACTIVE player. Seriously, an inactive player received a titan epic because it took that long for it to get cleared? Titan epics have all but lost most of their value(incentive to hunt) and therefore become something of an off-chance past time. Here is an example......before I went inactive for 2 years, I bought a Deepwater Choker that was Perfect/Fully Forged for 300 FSP. Now I can go to the AH right now and buy one that is uncrafted without forges for 13 FSP. People are practically giving these items away, and the titans that drop them are living on the map far longer than they should. Something needs to be done about this, and I have a suggestion........  

 

 

     Introduce the same type of tier system to "HUNTABLE" titan epic items as you did for the IH, SC, and WW. The overall stat enhancement doesn't have to be game changing, just enough to make them worth hunting again. And nothing as drastic as the aforementioned tier items. It takes 16 Inferno Hammers(in a perfect no failure world) to make a tier 5. This in itself is insane, just because the failure rate is ridiculous without the help of the best, and some "discontinued" potions in the game. Not to mention the other gear pieces required to make them which have become insanely expensive.Super Elite items required to invent an item is ok, IF the chances of finding an item from one isn't 1% with the best easily acquired FI1k pot. Hell I just sat and watched LE gear get sold for gold in the AH during the last LE during Easter.  Use those items for the recipe, and lets spice up GvG a little bit........

 

     To invent the tiers of the huntable titan epics create a new "resource" or a few new "resources" that require guild RP to purchase. They can have a 100% extraction rate and be unaffected by Extractor II. Thus, increasing activity in GvG as well. Ok, I'm tired as I work 3rd shift and have been up past my bedtime. Thanks for looking at my post and rest assured Belaric, an even more epic post(suggestion) is still in the works lol. 

Created new thread as last one was Roan who is currently inactive. Hope things settle for you soon mate.

Post a reply with your level requirements and I'll add you to the list! Would prefer the guild founder to be the one to post, but will accept main recruiter as well.

 

Will check guilds for activity once a month, if all members are inactive I reserve the right to remove it from the list. Any guild not found on the list in game will be deleted.

PLEASE update ST! having to click every single tick box to trade 50-100 items is time consuming. just like the backpack where I don't have to use a sniper rifle to hit every single small tick box to move items(cant remember the last time i ticked a box in BP) just add Ctrl+Click for ST and also for Send menu too.

I can hear that. Will mention it to Hoofmaster.

Add new buff/gear/enhancement bonus that comes with game concept below: (some ideas are taken from old threads in this forum and are improved upon)

 

1. Gain new pet slots

2. Gain ability to pause any active buffs and reactivate it again (with gold upkeep)

3. Gain semi-permanent buff as long as new class of gear type is equipped (with gold upkeep)

4. Unlock new stats

5. Unlock new gear slots

6. Create totally new mini games (solo or interactive, stats/stam involvement or non) to earn rewards

7. Gain ability to combine gear/pot into higher tier (level and stat/duration)

8. Gain ability to stack multiple similar/different skills pots in single chest like some of the global event chest

9. Gain ability to reroll daily quest

10. Gain ability to heat scan realm map for creatures/chest/freebies

 

Probably just another thing to be put on hold until apps development is finished.

This thread needs to return to the dead pile from which it came. No way Jose.

nice idea 

It's astounding to me. Just how many players at EOC who have been playing for 8 to 10+ years. That give absolutely false or totally inaccurate information. In Global Chat. To both noobs. Plus high level Players that should already know most of what they ask.

Most of you know that the pinata bat is in the Cathedral Of Ways. Half of you now that the items needed for the Halloween Global is in the Cathedral but sold in a different store than the pinata bat. None of you seem to know that the Egg Collecting Basket is Not in the Cathedral. It is sold from a shop in an area all its own inside the Springtime Forest. I don't know why that shop is in its own area instead of just being in the Springtime Forest. I guess the harder it is for you to find. The funner it is

Not many of you know. There are three invisible creatures in the game. In order to see these creatures. You must have the skill (buff) Reveal on you. Reveal is only available through a potion. There is a quest in which one of these creatures drops an item that's needed to finish the quest. Many noobs search for the Elemental of Paladir for hours or days. Before someone tells them that it's invisible and they need the buff to see it. The other two are the Pesky Spook (Global) and Free Roaming Vapor (Global) Seasonal Halloween creatures.

Veterans should be able to help players new and old. When it comes to doing the seven Epic Quest. If you invite them into your guild. You should be able to instruct players that they will receive items from one Quest that are needed to start or proceed in the next Quest. Instruct them that there are some items for which they will receive a recipe. In order to invent such things like the viper strike longsword. That these items should not be dropped because they are needed to fight a creature at the end of the quest in order to finish it. Such items being dropped will result in them having to file a ticket with support. In order to get it back.

I also cannot believe how many High level players. Who have been playing for at least 10 years. Do not know that there are 5 permanent Legendaries in the Realms at all times.

It's our job as the FS community. To be knowledgeable with the correct information. So we can inform not just Guild members, but other players. Asking questions in global chat too. There are many creatures in the game that require an Equipped item in order to even hit them. Not just the Seasonal Easter creatures. With the Egg Collecting Basket found in a shop in the Shoppers Grove area of the Springtime Forest.

If you are given some information, and can verify that the information is true. Please pass it along.

i see the 48 hour countdown timer there, has anyone ever beat it?

 

is there a reward or medal for outlasting the bounty - what happens to the cash if nobody completes

 

just curious - my strategy and advice was always just to get naked and get it over with
