lol Thank you!

Quote: "So it is our hope that the player base might formulate a plan to improve the event, and give the proposal to the developers." My comments are just personal suggestions. I'm sure Efi would have had some input if he's been invited to your meeting, and I'm sure he will comment in due course. A good start may be to look at several of the previous conversations on the forums. I can summarize a few of the thoughts. The Warder could be a triggered raid. Keep it rare, perhaps an expensive credit-sink, or rare item. It saddens me that the same people continue to hog this spawn and use the loot to trade up, and not allow mere mortals to even glimpse this spawn. The raids can be very stingy. Things like DG seem to be rarer than necessary. You turn up with 12-15 toons and there are only 2-3-4 items worth rolling for. Add more devices, random AAs, ammo samples, rare comps. Bring back the old Halloween raid in ABG as a permanent thing. It had a nice range of beams and devices that dropped. It can still be rare - limit the pumpkin spawn to random (BL spawned?) locations and restrict figurine drops. Review the respawn cycles. I'm fortunate to be in a guild that raids often but I am lucky to be on at the right time and sometimes go a week or more without a raid. Make them 18hr, or random 12-36hr, or triggerable, or purchaseable. This would also make more space for public raids. Review the drops on AV, Bunyip and Zenrei. Same comments as the stingy raids. Evermore has done some great work on making the rarer items drop in more places (though I have seen little evidence that the rare drops becoming more obtainable despite systematic searching). Can we review the items that have fewer than 30 builders and spread the love. Many of these builders are not with us anymore. I can list off most of these items if need be. Some of the L8-9 devices are difficult to come by. AAs are just too rare. I rejoined the game a few months after live (eye ops) and unfortunately missed the free-for-all when AAs seemed like confetti. I still mine a lot and still have just one AA despite years of searching. Can these be added as rare drops in raids. I have no issue with items remaining rare, just that they become more obtainable with dedicated work.

server go poof?

do a search for 'super nerf' - has all the details you need there.

When is the patch, if there is a patch?

server go poof?

Someone has tooooo much time on their hands?

and collect worm bits at every opportunity - level your junior toons in NV (and I think progen starter systems) and kill worms.

Sting novem seems to be missing from DB or is it just me?

I've been doing L150 missions from Xipe for the last few days and noticed Slithering Gazers were no longer available. Were they removed?

What Strettch says - totally agree - many of these items are fill-in items which are valuable if you have nothing better. Not everyone gets to win the best stuff immediately.   I also think the quest for more and more damage actually makes the game more boring. If you can kill a L66 with 2 toons in a few minutes without any real effort what was the point. You may as well shoot scuttlebugs. The degree of difficulty makes the game more interesting, not the uber goober super potatoguns which can slice through Desash or whoever like a butter-sauced fillet of trout.

Big thank you!

Ty ty ty for doing these.  I can't wait for the next patch.  This will give me a whole new project to keep me busy for the forseeable future.  It's these small things that have been difficult or impossible to find.  Thank you Evermore, for making them achievable.

Do you get Ballistic Shells with the Sniper mission?

There is a Wetpolecat who plays!

Howabout:   Green Kirin EMP Laser M5 - 15 builders Double-Barreled Scuttledung Launcher - 1 builder Golden Dragonfly San - 7 builders Black Dragonfly San - 23 builders   :D

I have been tidying my Agrippa file and was checking off what I could/couldn't build.   The DB can find most stuff with a simple search like 'flechette" but the following were NOT found.  Very odd?   Auctorius Remoror Quinque Seco Secare Secui Sectum Quinque (say that with a mouthful of Captain Crunch). Stage II Electronic Authorization Multiflorus Multiplico Effervo Aspectus Limo Quinque   However you CAN navigate to them if you know what components they use.  eg. Vortex Titanium Barrel leads to the Multiflorus.   Maybe its just my stupid Firefox.  Can anyone else replicate this?  

Wonderful Doctor Tiki.  Wonderful! Thank you!

No need to be sorry.  This is great news. Thank you so much.   I'll be busy for the the next month or two systematically hunting every system for these new drops.

Huge thanks !

Gets my vote. ("Heal the Shear")

Update: Parallels Desktop 10 for Mac just released.  Compatible with Yosemite.

Yes, I can't wait for Healing the Shear and MCP to come.  Some lovely items to work for. I'd also suggest people relax and enjoy the game.  Explore the missions, find all the bosses including the minor ones, help others, do Agrippa, do raids as much for helping others get something nice rather than with the sole aim of getting the best gear within weeks of getting L9.  I have been going on guild raids forever and I love seeing people winning something great even though I still haven't got things like a Hellbore or a glare of Devastation.

Apologies.  The ones I have found difficult to track down are the following - formatted better this time. And to re-iterate - we all appreciate the time it takes to get the loot tables working.  Thanks Evermore.
