i've been experiencing a server DC every 5-10mins.... it starts getting pretty fustrating as you can barely get anything done..... is anyone gonna do anything about it?
Members
Tell that to the people who use mjolnir but can't use maces <_<

Man, I sure do love people who don't pay attention to previous threads. <_<

Erm...
You DO know there's a patch to fix that, and that would have NOTHING to do with the DCs, right?
Members
I have the patch yes but other people don't as soon as to many people crash with that error the server goes along with them <_< It causes a bug in the map server or something mindreave said that he posted something to fix but I think the admin is to lazy to fix it, he posted sometime that he doesn't really care about this server anymore together with all it's problems

You could've made another topic or at least waited for this subject to be finished and then post it here, you should really look around on the server there's a npc that clearly tells you when WoE starts so this post is totally unneccesary
Members
so what you guys are saying is that the frequent DCs won't go off until a miracle happens and every decides to throw their Mjolnir on the ground in favour of a +10 Mace?

so how about this... the GM should simply remove Mjolnir.... it does much more harm than good anyways....

just the wizards, and no that won't stop all the dc's. There's another
bug that's reared it's ugly head.
Members
If you tell us the bug it might help alot, yes maybe people will start abusing it but the gm can do a wipe and take mjolnir out of the stores after that
Members
i've talked to the gm's about it. There's nothing they can really do short
of editing the source. A partial temporary solution would be to remove
the MVP arena for now. You can guess how popular that'd be with the
players. Not everyone knows that it's difficult to balance stability and
player requests.
Members
There are still MVP's were they are supposed to be, they aren't being put in that map for nothing you know, makes it a little bit more monk filter to since there isn't a healer around there, but when you think of it they just start using berries but if it makes the time between the DC's bigger I don't think it would be to much of a problem there are still normal monsters to train against and also MVP's in the original maps
Members
It's a "partial" fix, as I mentioned. MVP's have a timed spawn, so can't be killed every few seconds, which is what's causing the dc's. There are fewer of them and further apart, so even if monks went out and killed them, they'd have to wait for the next mvp. This isn't just about the monk's overpoweredness, this is about overall server stability.
Members
Wrong, that is not what causes it, yes it is the mvp npc...but completely different, it d/c 's because alot of people use xp bug, Example: 3 characters used xp bug, they grow 50 levels each, Server: "Wtf hax this cant be right"
*shut down* Its always the same pattern, people use xp bug, get their levels and server crashes.

And, the MVP respawn time has NOTHING to do with this, we never had the problem...
