You need to be at Level 7 of your build skill (count the dots in Character Screen), not 'be able to build level 6 & 7 items'.  It is, and was confusing... A Rewording might be nice.

I have run E&B under both Parallels & Bootcamp, and it runs well under both.  It does (obviously) run better under bootcamp than Parallels.  I have done so on both 2010 Mac Pro & 2009 Imac.

So, it seems to me, from the logic of some, that if I owned a restaurant and decided to feed a few needy people on Tuesdays..... That my restaurant would go from being offered to the public, to being OWNED by the public.  And that I might get sued for not letting enough people know that there would be free food, early enough for more than I could afford to show up.  If someone "Gives" you something, and you don't think it's good enough for you, or you don't like the way it's offered.. Don't Accept it.  But a "Gift" is freely offered, and should be freely accepted.  If you know it's happening Tuesday, and you really want to be part of it, Maybe you could make your ammo on Monday Night and park the toon you want to bring by the gate.  I figure you would need 2-3 of those ten minutes then.  The entire Raid system is imperfect.... It's what we got.   Nuff fer now,                  Sevin

So, I have a question. Probably pretty obvious, but here goes...  Are these crashes a Software problem, or a Hardware problem?  People tend to blame the latest patch, but i have a server here at my residence which started acting up, and it took me several days to realize that a problem with 1 hard drive out of the 6 was causing all my issues.    Sevin

Talar, I know you have a vision of your ideal E&B (or EnB2, as you have posted elsewhere).  I would say. go forth, build your ideal game, and enjoy it.  I'll be here playing this one, with all its "Faults".  Sevin

Ok, I am not at the level to be involved in this content (Yes, I'm an Alt o Holic).  But I try to read all the forum content, and the question raised in my mind is this:   Why do 3 other guilds get to decide whether a 4th guild can partake of game content?  I get a vote in some things, on a server level (Like who is the player - dev go between), and I can vote on some things here on the forums to make my voice heard... But when did I decide (or get a chance to), that these three guilds would be in charge of what content any guild I belong to, is allowed to do?   Just my 2c, your mileage may vary..

Ok, speaking of the Buckshot:  Where can one get one?  There are builders, so it must drop.  All the info I've seen points to it dropping in Deneb/Roc.  I drove out there last night, and the Appian gate appears to be defunct?  So did people get them before the gate went down? Are there other drops? Would love to pattern it & the ammo.  And: Will the Appian gate reopen? is this a temp measure? enquiring minds wish to know.   Thanks for any light you can shine.

"Bigger is not always better, but it is always bigger"    Thats just a fact.  There are Many MMO's, and many guilds on them, and many small guilds or unguilded players who are left out.  I have yet to see a solution anywhere.. Not just here.  In most MMO's, the solutions I have seen are: Multiple instancing:  Not gonna happen here.. Deal with it.   Bring out new content, which the "Big" Guilds, promptly "own". Thereby allowing smaller guilds to start doing "yesterdays content". As new content is brought in, requiring better gear, gear through vendoring or missions is added that is equivalent to "old" raid gear, thereby giving non raiding groups a chance to upgrade their gear to the point that they can be competitive in old content.    Just as your level 125 toon cant solo L150 content, your L8* Guild probably cant compete with L10* guilds..... So, hopefully by the time your guild can, the big guys (Now L12 guilds) will have moved onto the new content.    I belong to one of the "small" Guilds (10 toons or so), and one of the "big guilds" (3 toons).  I personally dont care about raids.  When it happens, it will happen.  I still enjoy playing every day that I can, and am keenly aware of how much I missed this game after sunset (although I have had to be reminded of that).  SO, my advice is.. enjoy the game we have, and the content you can reach.... And dont get upset because someones reach exceeds yours today.   Just my thoughts, your mileage may vary.      Sevin

Not sure what you are asking for here?  For the capacity of JE only shields to be increased? Drops of JE Shields to be increased? For JE's to be able to equip the same shield as someone else and get more capacity out of it?  As far as Jenquai only shields having less cap, they have both equip & activated deflect buffs, which I think is a balancing act with the cap.    Sevin

Quote: "Even in reality, companies that build hundreds of thousands, or millions of cars, etc a year, still put out a run of stinkers that need to be recalled from time to time."     Thats true... But, A better product is more likely to be produced by the individual worker who has years of experience, building 1000's of cars, than by the guy who was hired last week.  If you want a job done, who do you want to do it? the guy who has done 1000's of similiar jobs, or the guy who has his nose in a manual and says "I think I understand this.."

Another dynamic that might be possible with "Raid group" is extending looting rights to the raid group, not the immediate group. I know often there are 2 groups. Main group is all about DPSing mobs, and generally looters are in 2nd group.  Another thing that would be amazing (if possible) is further sharing xp, so the people in group II (who probably need it the most) could get xp off the kills.  I know this simply may not be possible due to client limitations, but if it was, it would be really cool.

Ok, Had to Forfeit the mission, then reaqquire. You do not even have to dock at the stations in question.  The mission updates when you arrive at the station.  2nd time around, it worked perfectly.. So..        Sevin

Seems like a great idea, but the trade goods vendor does not want them either?   Update: My TE and one of my TT's is doing this mission.  My TE went in, ran to everyone and tried to turn in the report.  Stiil no joy there.. But my TT never did more than land at the station, and his mission has updated and the 1st report is gone from Hold.  So, There appears to be some bug in the execution.             Sevin

Wow, you guys are better than Good.... Problem reported, problem fixed... Can you rush some duct tape over to the guild forums now ;-)  In all seriousness, it wasn't that big a problem and not really affecting anything, but apparently an easy fix, so you just did it.  Thank you!   Sevin
