Any New News on Calw Slots?
I have been waiting like the rest of the dragons for these slots to come out and would like an update at the very least...."Yeah still working on it" so that we know it has not fallen off the radar screen totally.
This was such an awesome idea that i hope they continue to work on it and put it into game for us.
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
Last I heard from a discussion in IRC with David Bowman is that claw slots "should" be in by the end of the year. Well, the end of the year is coming fast. We'll see what happens.
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
I just hope we get upped Damage etc because after crystals were brought to a more standard level they arent much to work with.
Also hope they are in soon be really nice to have em :)
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
I have aquired 2 or 3 of every type of weapon crystal there is (level 65) just for when we get scale slots...
I wonder if they will make all new crystals for our scale slots?[:S]
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
I just wish they would make them live so we could acutally fight well.
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
If claw slots are anything like handwraps they wont add damage they will replace your claw mastery. However they will be socketedable and the crystals are still useful.
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
...word is that there's gonna be a major dragon update upcoming - ancient, lairs, claw slots - all by the end of the year by the LATEST...
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
With all the problems they are having I do not see the major Dragon update by the end of the year. It will have to be pushed back. I have no problem with this as long as they give out some info and say "Hey we are sorry we wanted to get started on the Dragon issues sooner but other problems came up. Here is what we have planed."
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
I think the ancient RoP and probably claw slots will be released by the end of the year. Lairs Im not expecting to see till early febuarary.
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
i hope they help with damage and not hurt our damage becuase crystles arent that good
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
I hope it adds to our claw mastery instead of replacing it. Crystals only help a little bit unless they're going to make some new crystal for us.
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
Don't expect too much.
I'll bet that claw slots will NOT greatly improve damage. If you expect them to make you uber I think you're going to be in for a world of disappointment.
They were going to try to get ancient ROP and lairs done by end of year but it is NOT written in stone.
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
That's what I heard Goriax. They are aiming for the end of the year for AROP and lairs, but could be later if they need more time.
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
Har har har.....What are you dragons talking about....we do great damage.....Gold rage....It's my only attack....lol....One thing I think would be cool would be to have ethereal claw ability like reavers have as something an Ancient dragon would know. Just a thought.
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
If the new claws will hold weapon crystal sockets then ethereal damage will becomeposible.
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
From what I have heard, it will be the same deal as with monk hand wraps. It willreplace your claw mastery not add to it. The only benefit will be the ability to tech itand socket it.
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
Dragon claw slots are in today's (11/9/04) patch!
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
Personally I would prefere an addition to the claw mastery...
It would be cool to have a dragon increased in strenght for a change... lol
Maybe a strange proposition, but the Augmentor in Dralk has nothing to do with anyone until we are lvl 50+...
Why not give him extra quests next to the burning embers, but also some quests in which dragons from lvl 20-100 or 120can do quests (every 20 lvls) for a set of 2 crystals (1 for each claw)...
With maybe simular effects like the burning embers, that by using our standard attack there is a chance of extra damage... And that with better crystals would increase the chance and strenght of extra damage... Something like Bleed (Increased craw strenght due to the crystals should do more slicing damage and thus cause a heavy cut making them bleed [;)])...
Wheither it is really gonna replace claw mastery or not, then at least this way we can be made tougher and better so that we atleast stay "strong"...
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
It would be a nice change, though currently I am sure dragons have the exact same base melee damage as a disciple, only half the delay reduction. Dragons also wont likely get the bonus parry ability. And I do agree, the augmentor does need more quests. I still find it strange Dragons only get 1 more point of strength than monks through leveling, even as adults though.
Re: Any New News on Calw Slots?
We as today (01/11/2005) they are in the update for order and chaos... hope that everything will go well and no bug :P I can hardly wait to see what it looks like..
Patience is always rewarded... although some time its longer then what you want....
