    My GPU slider is not available. I updated my drivers, is it only for people with more than 256 MB of VRAM?

    I read that as GPA slider at first, and imagined a program in which you slide your time invested into WAR, and get an inversely reactive response as to what your GPA will be.

    Unless they've changed it in the last couple of days since I've played MT - I've seen entire games where one person has had the ball the entire game, with maybe one healer on them. They have not dropped. If the mechanic works as folks say it does, there should be no way for a person to do that unless they weren't getting the debuff.

    You get the debuff from pickups currently. It capped on my WP for about 2580 health, of my 2760 total or so. I could hold it for a while, but if someone missed a heal for half a second, I'd die to it.

    Yah the vram slider I was talking about was the GPU texture memory buffer slider. I have an 8800GT with 512mb or vram and it made an improvement for me. I am also forcing 4x aa and af. All in all the game looks really good and is smooth, but i may need to turn it down for big battles.

    No, but you could use about 4 GB - VRAM, usually around 3.5 GB.

    i know this is a few pages late, but ulthuan is definitely not 1.1 destro to 1.0 order. you can log in at 9pm eastern and see order as medium and destro as high or full. this is the norm every week night. also i doubt averheim is even as balanced as 1.2destro to 1.0 order. as it often displays the same values as ulthuan, if not shaded a little higher towards order.

    Heh. I'd like to see a bounty on gold spammers. Every time you report one, you get a chance at a monthly drawing for random loot. Make it a month long server-wide PQ. It doesn't even have to be worthwhile loot, I'd take something showy, or a title, or something of a similar nature that provides no real in-game benefit.

    Why not? You need more experience to level, with each passing level right? I presume the xp is calculated as some percentage of the amount you need for the next rank.

    Sev: Your gameplay is the most heavily yomi based around. Usually you look for characters that allow you to force guessing situations for big dmg. Even if the guess is mathematically nowhere near in your favor lol. You're happiest when you have either a 50/50, 33/33/33 or even a 75/25 situation to go crazy with. And you will take big risks to force those situations to come up.

    Why not? You need more experience to level, with each passing level right? I presume the xp is calculated as some extremely random algorithm that doesn't factor in anything other than winning or losing. There is no predicting who will get the most xp, you just hope for the best.

    Got a few misc questions was hoping someone might know the answer too:

    1. When you find someone sending a tell about gold sales, how do you report them? Noticed this for the first time last night and wasn't sure what to do.

    /report
    /help
    ? No idea and I figure someone here probably knows.

    2. When you are playing in a scenario how can you communicate with the whole team? I get the impression typing messages after "Say" only puts a bubble above your head. How do you send a message to the entire team like, "KILL DA SPOTWIGHT FUST, HE'S DA BIG BOSS"

    It's extremely frustrating trying to inform the team that they need to focus on one player in the 2nd tier scenario's. I get the impression most people don't know the object of the game and just go out trying to club the first guy they see.

    None of those things generate XP. As far as I'm aware, you get XP for participating in player kills, and you get bonus XP at the end of the game based on your team's score. The XP column in the score window lists the total of those two over the course of the match. The other guy is probably getting more XP per player kill because of his higher rank, and that accounts for the difference.

    /sc talks to the whole scenario.
    If you end up in a warband for a PQ or rvr or something /wb is what you're after. Not sure about the reporting.

    Participating in player kills and your team's score at the end, I believe, are the only things that award experience in scenarios.

    Also it's bugged to where if you join a scenario whilst part of a warband, at least for me, you will not be able to see your party window in the scenario.

    Which, just by the by, SUCKS for healing.
