After the first two weeks full of fixes, we are now starting to look into the future. We were getting a lot of feedback and were reading the players suggestions on the forum, plus we were checking our own statistics and decided to implement the following changes after the next patch:
Phoenix Eggs:
We will increase the XP per Phoenix Egg. Handing them in you will get 50% more XP per egg. This should help solo players a lot and will make their way to 50 more enjoyable.
Tinderboxes:
Tinders are a nice and very helpful addition to leveling, but they mostly reward power using classes, especially casters. To help melee classes a little bit and to encourage players to level in melee groups and/or level more melee chars in general, tinders will have a 2nd bonus.
In addition to the heal, endo and power regen, tinders will also give a 5 mins buff for everyone in the group. This buff is a 25% DMG-Add that stacks with all existing DMG-Adds. It will only work in pve and not versus other players. It will also not work versus raid mobs in highend pve content.
Least killed mob types:
After the first two weeks of PvE some mob types have been way more killed than others. We would like to give an incentive for killing the mob types which have not been killed as much . All mob types that were 50% or less killed in total compared to the most killed mob type will get an XP bonus up to 500%. This will make it worthwhile to head out and find the other types. The XP message will show you if a mob type has this special bonus.
Vest from epic dungeons:
We will rework the vests from epic dungeons a little bit. Some of them already have +3 all magic or melee, but most of them have +3 in one special skill. We will remove the +3 in a single skill and change it to to all magic/melee. If you already bought a vest, it will be changed automatically. You will not lose anything but mostly win something.
