    What do you expect in beta, there working hard on the xbox-360 release and a new MMO project. As much time as possible is spent moderating the Funcom forums.

    That's the most stupid game mechanic i ever witness.  If you don't want peoples higher level farm bosses lower then them, just turn off the loot when they grey.

    I can honestly say I've only been killed by the ape king once, and that was when i first started playing. Anyone that dies to him who just started playing must really suck.

    My question would be, how the f*** does a damn ape do holy damage or even more, how does it do bladestorm??

    Don't you need an...oh I don't know...blade!?

    Yea because anyone who takes 2000 damage at level 5 and dies is a bad player, right? BTW this is the same for most mini-bosses, most of them can one shot you now. I guess Funcom thought it would be a good idea for the player to just die sometimes through no fault of their own.

    I am waiting for an obligatory fanboy post. I am sure they have reasons to prove how this is a great game mechanic. Comeon guys where are you? need some enlighting posts here.

    This comment is worthy of becoming someone's sig. Pure genius :)

    The Ape King is in the g***mn tutorial, ffs!!!

    Funcom is killing noobs in the tutorial with a freak hit 30 times their max life points.

    Is there anything that can be added to make this funnier? :)

    The Ape King cant even be Farmed by people...The Ape King is in the area right BEFORE the agte to Tortage common area. As far as I know (and I remember trying) once you go through that gate you cant go back.

    Ape King got mad cuz the weaklings kept killing him. Ape King talk to mommy Funcom and mommy Funcom gave Ape King super powerz. Now Ape King SMASH DA WEAK HUMANZ hahahahaha!

    I really hope it was like, a typo or a glitch, maybe meant to say 27 or 24...

    A human and an Elf get captured by Skaven. The rat-men are getting ready to shoot the first hostage with Dwarf-made guns when he yells, "Earthquake!" The naturally nervous Skaven run and hide from the imaginary threat. He escapes. The Skaven regroup and bring out the Elf. Being very smart, the Elf has figured out what to do. When the Skaven get ready to shoot, the Elf, in order to scare them, yells, "Fire!"

    I've made two new characters this past weekend and didn't run into the "feature" in either case. Is this a pretty rare event? I agree with another poster who said grayed out mobs shouldn't drop loot in order to handle farming, but if this is FC's solution, it's pretty piss poor. Again, though, haven't experienced it myself.

    I make spreadsheets at work - I don't want to make them for the games I play.

  • CymdaiCymdai Member UncommonPosts: 1,043

    I can't even believe that.

    It's as if the directors of the game have never even played an MMO before. There are a dozen games out there that have handled farming mobs better than this. Why not consult them?

    Pitiful, really.

    Waiting for something fresh to arrive on the MMO scene...

    This happened to me in Cimmeria with a boss. I was attacking him with my brother when all of a sudden BINK we are dead. I fought this guy before and he in no way damaged me that bad so at first I thought maybe someone ganked us we didn't see. Then we looked at the combat log. Same thing he hit both of us for about 2k.

    I've heard others complain they get hit like that from bosses too so this issue is definatly not isolated.

    It was listed in the unpublished patch release notes, someone linked it a couple of days ago.

    Its actually more funny to watch the devs go... OOOPS....  what did we do now ?

    This pretty much tells everyone the exact state of the game.  Funcom just changed one of the fundemental part in the combat system and they had actually no idea THEMSELFS how it would turn out.... 

    "Oh well.. we send it out on the retail servers anyway..."

    Its just pathetic.
