Awesome no more retards shooting arrows and spells into the air to skill up.

Gj AV!

Easily the best patch notes i have seen yet. great work AV.

Now i can actually specialize in archery and not every monkey who stands against a wall can be as high as me  :) i know there are players that have already got a high skill from doing this but ill just have to live with that :(

And some of the more neglected spells seem to have had an upgrade too, wont be just a MM fight :)

Best patch notice to ever hit mankind, so far : )

Should be MUCH easier to skill up now.  I am curious if hitting yourself with magic splash damage will work for skilling up.

So, basically, they are telling players waiting to join not to do, because they are not going to have a chance against the macroers that arrive first?

So basically, target practice is useless?  If I go to a shooting range to shoot at the wall where there's a target dummy, I won't get better at it?  All these years I've been wasting my time?  Thanks for ruining my life AV!

Good move. But I do have to point out, that the MMOs they are attempting to emulate, solved this 10 years ago.

True but at least they are listening, give them that plz bloodworth. I know you are a leet critic of every mmorpg and all that, but at least they listen, I do not know that many devs that emulate that.

 Easily one of the best patches. The grind was unbereable damn, hopefully it will be significantly faster to skilll up now, and you have to get out there and DO SOMETHING to gain it.

Crafting is also quicker, good on that too.

Game is heading in the right direction.

*looks into crystal ball*

I predict that  prices of accounts of Darkfall players with high stats sold on e-bay will sky-rocket after this patch..........

I'm just going to say:

I thought this didn't happen, and no one has ever seen anyone do this but once. It was a completely overblown rumor started by the "Haters".

Whats up?

They are making good efforts, considering the resources.

They're doing the obvious thing in response to a behavior anyone could have predicted. I'm not sure that means they're "listening." Unless we assume they're too stupid tp get it without the players pointing it out. Regardless they're fixing the problem and get some points back for that. It still doesn't fix the AoE / rigor exploit but one does what one can I suppose. .

You did. I reinterated it to place my second sentence in the proper context.

 this is so sweet....

Wish they would have added more mobs or increase the spawn rate. Every mob spawn i checked was pretty packed close to the starter areas. Usually people are always coming and going, now they're camping them. I do it too, not complaining about people camping, just not enough mobs for everyone to skill up. Just my first impression. things may settle down.

 Definitely a step in the right direction.  Let's hope that AV continues to realease patches like this.
