Announcement Patch #13: QoL Improvements, Charm Inventory, Server Selection and More

@kiwifruit , sorry I missed that one! Thanks a lot!
If we have normal gear layout and same time we have 2x10 more inventory this will be insane! Great job!

 

@Gix :
-First of all: the inventory looks .. ugly. Gloves at the same level with the Helmet. There is no left/right ring anymore. The main items looks flattened.

- In dueling the player will have 1/2 of their inventory empty - too much space for cheating. You can check the items of the other player with the maphack, but the inventory - nope. So gearing off and on the belt won`t show the opponents potions. At hardcore this is essential. At softcore the player will just have 1/2 of their inventory with mana pots. All okay, but is this fair to the ES sorcs?
I don`t want even to imagine a good player with frozen orb sorc with 95% ES absorb with points in telekinesis and 40 mana pots in the inventory and 12 in the belt. What kind of duel will it be?

- As a hardcore member since the 2014 (3 seasons) my observations are: ~1 year ~ 1year and a half to fulfill the inventory with 19x30+life skillers. Less players there, less trades, less communication. So this was a good reason for the extended season length (2 years). But if the inventory is half cut - finding the charms will take 1/2 less time. So the grinders like me - will lose interest earlier. And for softcore - I don`t know, It would take probably half a month to make a char with end-game gear/inventory - so if the inventory is half cut, probably the season length should be half cut?

-Last but not least: - Grinding characters requires a lot of time/efforts. Finding that all of your previous characters which you have considered finished are messed up - quite disappointing feeling.

 

About PVM, the old inventory style makes this server unique and recognizable. More inventory space mean more fun, less time wasting i am sure.
PVP will benefit from the big inventory.

Be sure ES sorc will drinking mana pots like ice cold beer. This was possible before, yes but only 4 pots (in belt).. now u have 40 more to carry with u..
Imagine bars, necros, even ass-a will benefit with this 40 more mana pots. Less tactical duels/ no mana suffering
And i dont mention the item switch ( for more abs, res, dmg red) - hard cheating or for better (BO, es) end every other boosting - chicky cheating + skill items u can carry without losing 2 GC skiller or 4 SC ( for cube ) like before.
This will happened with those extra 2 rows.
I know admins are trying to evolve and to give us new things, but its hard to "scale" between PVP and PVM
PVP will suffer, this is my final conclusion.

In the end i am glad that admins will bring the old inventory back, ty for this!

 

can you read this or u need more bold?
if u want to talk pvp first learn to play it and stop crying. like gix say if i drink pots or do bo and ur blind to see u dont deserve to be in pvp game and need to learn more
there is many ppl who drop extra shit gc for cube in all duels ppl bcz they dont have max charm its hard to get all. i see here who never play original bcz u cry too much but in all years if i want to find a fair duel i always do and can find witout or with precast speak with other ppl and decide what u use its ez

 

Act like an adult. No need for toxic comments or something else. Probably you`ve played too much softcore.

 

I would add 2 things:
1. @Joaiuda had a very on-point comment about PvP pros and cons
2. While I'm not into PvP, people who are can always organize events here in forum, who will stop them? Also, another idea would be to establish a 'Hall of Fame', where everyone could write about other players - GM duelers, fair play, a.s.o. (without ass kissing or boot licking, which can be easily detected); also, probably more important, a 'Hall of Shame', where BM / cheating / disrespectful duelers would be 'advertised' for all community to see and stay away from. Always with screenshots / proofs of the accusations, not innuendo or hearsay / gossip or outright lies.
This way, given time, the PvP community will start to learn who's who (newcomers especially, veterans already know), who to avoid, who to learn from. PvP was intended by Blizzard to be fun, but it is taken as a life and death matter by too many green, immature kids and wannabees (grow the fuck up, you've only lost a duel, not your eye / arm / car / house / bank account etc.; instead of bitching, learn and you'll have your day).
Taking a character to a competitive dueling level takes time, so a stain of BM dueler won't be erased easily.

 

@Gix and team,
I have just cheked the layout but the "close"and "gold" buttons are in not so good place. Please check the SS below. Any idea how to fix it?

 

@Stany mine is good

 

Sorry Everything works fine now! Please delete this one and my previous posting.

" Stacking uber keys is now possible via the following recipe: place two or more same type uber keys in the cube to stack them. Cube the stack alone for unstacking https://i.imgur.com/iDjlFTQ.jpg "
Any limit on the keys? Or is it like gems?

Already answered in-game earlier on, the limit is set to around ~100 keys per keychain.
