Hopefully, my 700k worth of boxes is enough this time...



PD -> RE: July 2021 GGBs + Golden Developer Ticket - FINAL DAYS (7/12/2021 18:34:00)

I'm guessing we're getting a 100-proc water gun + water primary shield, and then a ranged energy scythe + energy primary shield? Shall look forward to how that goes. In general I wish there were more set interactivity because it sells the idea of trade offs for bonuses and encourages players to itemize around those interactions, instead of the current mode of everyone converging into a single ultimate build.

Otherwise I'm hoping that there will be some time to fix some of the more debilitating bugs and exploits that have appeared and have been reported as of recent. Some of them are heavily affecting the playability of the game.



PD -> RE: July 2021 GGBs + Golden Developer Ticket - FINAL DAYS (7/12/2021 22:43:55)

Er, you're right. I misread that. I thought both items would have a shield to them. That said I still think (although I can be wrong, again) that the Ectoplasm weapons will be Energy. I actually re-looked at the image and yeah now I see the bow. More 100-proc support will be welcome, as we don't have a lot of 100-proc energy weapons.



PD -> RE: July 2021 GGBs + Golden Developer Ticket - FINAL DAYS (7/13/2021 0:43:45)

While a lot of those are Rare, GGBs, or both, reconsidered perhaps I should also walk back on that other statement as well.

On Wind, I do wish we had a wind version of Eclipsed Dragonlord's Patience. I found it odd anyways that the Eclipsed set got a bow but not a spear, but the Haunted series got a spear instead of a bow. If both had a spear AND bow that would have been ideal, and I think it could actually be done easier than not - just recolor each respective missing item (Spear for Eclipse, Bow for Haunted) and I think that would be good.



Branl -> RE: July 2021 GGBs + Golden Developer Ticket - FINAL DAYS (7/13/2021 6:38:29)

Stormshadow is neither, and is probably the most popular by virtue of being the strongest compression option available.
But yeah, as far as 100 procs go, we could use more options in Water/Ice/Wind.



The Hollow -> RE: July 2021 GGBs + Golden Developer Ticket - FINAL DAYS (7/15/2021 14:10:00)

The contest will run until 11:59 PM EST tonight with the winners likely announced Friday, picking 10 total in case any of the 3 winners do not respond to their email. We are down a programmer this week so the GGB release may be a liiittle late today.

Kam is doing some extra work on the Mega Soaker items, and there are a couple bugs still with the Ectomancer Blade and Bow, so this will be an early a Friday release!



PD -> RE: =AQ= July 2021 GGBs + Golden Developer Ticket - FINAL DAYS (7/15/2021 20:16:14)

Just a small side note: It looks like the Tempest/Boreal Lights of Zealotry have been removed from the LTS shop, although it doesn't look like we ever got a warning notification that it was going to be removed from the LTS. Unless I missed something?



Sunfyre232 -> RE: =AQ= July 2021 GGBs + Golden Developer Ticket - FINAL DAYS (7/16/2021 0:14:45)

Oooh this contest is so exciting!



The Hollow -> RE: =AQ= July 2021 GGBs + Golden Developer Ticket - FINAL DAYS (7/16/2021 14:54:57)

Contest winners have been announced, congratulations to the winners!

6 New Golden Giftbox prizes have arrived! Nothing was removed from the GGBs as ALL board weapons will leave in August.

Unofficial info on the GGB items. Info is from me.
quote:

Ectomancer Blade/Scythe/Staff/Bow

0-proc Melee/Ranged/Magic Sword/Scythe/Staff and 100-proc Ranged Bow. All are Wind. Bow has a true special.
Blade and Staff have a +10 Bth lean, Scythe has a +7 Bth lean, and Bow has a +20 Bth lean.
Blade, Scythe and Staff have a 0.5 BR lean while the bow's BR lean is 0.6.

Click the weapon to pay standard skill cost in SP to imbue yourself with Wind for 1 turn. The imbued attack does +50% damage and auto-hits. You deal *0.65 damage due to the auto-hit.

quote:

Mega Soaker

100-proc Ranged Water gun. Neutral Bth lean. No true special.

Click the weapon to pay 1 Health potion and 1 Mana potion. Doing this gives you 2 charges.
When attacking, if you have 1 or more charges, the weapon spends 1 charge to deal +100% damage.
You can only hold 10 charges at a time.

quote:

Mega Soaker Bulwark

Water shield.
Whenever you block an attack from the monster, you gain 1 charge. You get an additional charge if your current weapon is Mega Soaker.
If you have at least 12 charges when your turn begins, you spend 12 charges and gain 1 Health potion and 1 Mana potion.

Level 5, 15, 35, 55, 75, 95, 115, 135, 153
Water -3, -7, -14, -19, -21, -23, -24, -25, -26
Melee -2, 0, 2, 4, 8, 8, 10, 11, 11
Ranged 0, 2, 4, 7, 9, 11, 13, 14, 14
Magic 2, 4, 6, 9, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16



OG Ranger -> RE: =AQ= July 2021 GGBs + Golden Developer Ticket - FINAL DAYS (7/16/2021 17:14:44)

I love all the equipment except the auto hit on the ectoplasm weapons. I wish the auto hit was optional or removed. The wind imbue by itself would be perfect.



PD -> RE: =AQ= July 2021 GGBs + Golden Developer Ticket - FINAL DAYS (7/16/2021 17:33:12)

Well if there were any good uses for estates and their potions this super soaker just made them more valuable.

Also I have embarrassed myself thinking the ectoplasm was going to be energy. I have been double bamboozled



RobynJoanne -> RE: =AQ= July 2021 GGBs + Golden Developer Ticket - FINAL DAYS (7/16/2021 17:45:16)

I see a very good justification for more estates. 25 potions each just doesn't cut it anymore [;)].

Also, hooray for more imbues and in items, other than armors, without the charge mechanic!



Zork Knight -> RE: =AQ= July 2021 GGBs + Golden Developer Ticket - FINAL DAYS (7/16/2021 17:56:51)

I feel like the auto-hit penalty kinda kills the imbue weapon, since it lowers not just its own boost but all the boosts you can throw in, since it's multiplicative

You could trade some, or hell, ALL of the damage boost for BtH and end up doing more damage with essentially the same effect.



RobynJoanne -> RE: =AQ= July 2021 GGBs + Golden Developer Ticket - FINAL DAYS (7/16/2021 18:04:47)

It'd be great if the autohit were tied to the weapon and the imbue + damage boost were its own effect. I do think that could be potentially overpowered.



PD -> RE: =AQ= July 2021 GGBs + Golden Developer Ticket - FINAL DAYS (7/16/2021 18:59:32)

Finally got myself the Mega Soaker after getting lucky with the boxes. Tempest Power Armor + Mega Soaker + Double Mogs Lightnaut = 1 turn Caecus death. Some damage.

With all the strong 100-proc weapons that have come out as of now I think you could make a reasonably powerful fully offensive 100-proc ranger build as it'll allow me as a warrior to farm a vareity of void monsters, most notably Caecus and/or Fruitcakezard. With such primary equips like:

Fire: Dreamweaver's Sourge/Reach or Survivor's Blazing Rifle
Wind: This Ectoplasm Set (+Autohits)
Light: Morningstar Occult Cross
Darkness: Dragonlord Patience
Water: Super Soaker or Kindred's Humility
Energy: Royal Voidrender (+Harm)
Earth: Survivor's Rough Rifle
Ice: Cryo-Jet

The possibilities are out there to have a really strong build. It's worth noting though that some of these are Seasonal, Premium and/or Rare but the possibilities are there and are increasing ever more. With the recent update to give you initial starting SP you'll usually have a chance to get at least 1 SP attack off. Most of the notable armors have Bow support (Bloodzerker, Dragonlord, Tempest, Kindred, Subrace) so you have the potential to do enormous damage. Plus there are miscs that are especially good for for this like Ranger's Scope and Bow Master Emblem. Alongside the fact that a lot of monsters tend to have less ranged defense than melee/magic defense so you'll get hits off more of the time.



As for the Ectoplasm set, it's really noteworthy how the bow has a +20 BTH lean, and you can combine this with Dead Eye straight for nearly +27 BTH. Almost enough to make it so you never miss. Though it's at a fairly high cost as it means you lose around 20% damage (80/ 80 + 25). All the weapons in the set have fairly high BTH leans so I think this will be something people have to keep in mind. But if you need something with extreme accuracy this could serve as a valuable niche. And the fact that you can swap out all 4 versions freely in the account manager to suit what you need it to be should still give players a reason to get it.

You know that reminds me. In real life lotteries are often used to fund public works. I don't think we've had a donation/lottery contest in a while that goes towards some public work in a while. It's been a few years to say (I think the last time this happened, we got Neko Subrace) the least and I think the AQ team should look into doing something like that again.

Congrats to the Surfboard winners! Is there anyway to see who they are because the Character Page button has gone bonked? :(
