Do people still leave their characters bound in Meridia and die to teleport there?

Talking about Come Out and Slay rang a bell. When a quest as a flaw, like Come Out and Slay if there is a death in the last part, there no way to complete the quest (at low levels), as all the party members must be alive inside the glowing ring to complete.

So a question, do these design flaws get looked at again? Do the DM reports get reviewed for possible fixes that are not bugs.

This has happened to groups I was in twice. Once the Dm had no idea what to do. And after a while completed the quest for us. Once the dm got the story and popped out a rez shrine. So I know that there is a kind of check list for problems. But do those problems turn to changes to the quest?

Just chuckled listening to an old episode that came out after Mod 6. Even back then people were complaining about not being able to teleport to Meridia. You'd think they'd get the hint by now.

Tell me about it! Back then they kind of wanted to force people to see it, but by this point its just insane that you can't teleport there from pretty much any teleport method.

well they are forcing the new players to see it again. but come on. The travel marks are still broken. I am thinking of retraining out of them and i am a huge supporter of the different dragon marks but if they don't work, why bother?

Ok i will probly keep the first two as i like dd and run fast but come on. this is BS. They have been broken since DDo: u and i use want to travel like a i did before.

Jerry -

Can you ask the devs when, not if, they will have monthly statements for Turbine Points ready to go. It should have been ready from day 1. I know they are working on them based on some pms. As the store is here to stay and seems to be increasing in its pervasiveness (no shock there), I think this is a critical must have for players.

It certainly would be extension of trust and alleviate so many posts and complaints about the current accounting of the points.

Thanks much.

Well, the list is never so much "new" as it includes all the unanswered questions sent in. I keep all of the questions asked, and, as long as the question is still relatively relevant, will consider them for the show. I look at the unanswered questions and update it whenever I get new questions. When it comes time to put together a proposed list for the show, I try to find a balance of fun and crunchy, timely and long-unanswered, able to be answered and unlikely to be answered, "big" questions, minor ones, etc. I like to add variety. I also do make an effort to include questions from people who have not has their questions answered on the show before.

COOL !!!

Not that i thought you just threw away questions or anything ... just thought wow on page 6 how many questions are just like mine ... answered before the next ask the dev's segment :P

I know at times you communicate with Tolero to see which questions are even answerable but i am recalling somethings that where bothering me before that either no longer bother me or where fixed (or broken beyond current care).

All that aside I have been impressed with there ability to release something new wether its content or things like TR in a reasonable time .... wish they didnt make things so unreasonable that one would feel forced to using the store to make it possible especially since I have to pay more cause of exchange rates.

I have a feeling if I asked something like ....

how frequently will new epic missions be added to the game?
and
when can we expect some lower level missions to go epic? ... like epic durks got a secret or epic waterworks or even better epic tempest spine.

Question #???

In the Titan Green Room Puzzle, after solving is there anyway (other than dimension door) for an individual to extricate themselves from the CENTRAL BOTTOM EAST room. I have been able to solve the Green Puzzle without casting Dimension Door and able to extricate all but one of my party.

I have posted on the DDO Forums but no one there can figure out how to free the last party member.

Is this an expected behavior or is there a solution?

Dev Question - this came up on the DDO forums re: the color change to blade barriers:

As part of the upcoming changes to BB (color), it was stated (by multiple people) that BE [Break Enchantment] can dispel enemy AoE spells. I don't read the spell description as allowing that ... perhaps Dispel Magic should, but it was not stated DM did this.

Is this working as intended or would this be bug? It seems like a bug to me.

Man, you guys are keeping me busy. There are currently dozens of questions, many of them from all of ya, that are on my list and currently unanswered. I've been sorting through my list for the next ATD, and have put together a pretty good list I think. But it doesn't include a dozen questions from some of you....sorry. Stop spamming my Ask the Devs thread! :) Just kidding. I like people asking questions, but there's no way to fit in that many. I do have questions from most if not all of you though on the current proposed list for the next ATD! When is the next ATD? To be determined, hoping to get it in before the holiday, could be more to say on this very soon.

he he he ... ask the dev's is a popular segment

if only we could convince turbine to do it once a month rather then once every 5 you might not have so many questions left unanswered lol

.... seriously though glad you take the time to organize it and glad they answer any questions at all with how secretive and anti-informative they generally are.

It's been tough for Turbine to get everyone together, as they've been (obviously) busy with development in recent months. But, the next one will be very soon! Maybe even next week if possible...

ok want to make a frest start with ask the dev's questions that wont be messed up due to time laps between now and then ..

last time i asked about dreaming dark and then had two parts of it come out before i got my question answered so i thought i would just give questions that are timeless this time

1) What are the next two classes you are working on for addition to DDO's class lists?

2) What is the race each of you (assuming there are more then one) want to see in DDO? (tiefling cough cough)

Question: A while back a portion of DDO's soundtrack was made available for download. Could we get the rest of the music (particularly some of the stuff from the inspired quarter) also available to download?

since it will prolly be a while before the next ask the dev's and I plan to host weekly TOD strikes until the boots issue is solved in a civil and intelligent manor rather then the slop they are throwing us in update 3.

when you guys say you listen to the players responses on the forums why is it that nothing gets mentioned till its on beta server when its far to late to make real changes?

and

When you make drastic changes that upset the majority and please the minority like the change to TOD's boot requirements why do these things make it to live? Isn't that what lammania is for?

Back story for the Question.

I played 2moons for a short time. It was a free to play MMo. It was in the end a almost an unplayable game after a few updates. One thing that was really fun was an update that added What they called Dead front. In this update they added a team event. At times though out the day players would go to dead front, form parties for there lvl, the party leader would enter the group in to the npc. Then there would be a drawing and i think it was 6 team would be able to enter the quest. When it started each team would be at different points and would have to fight to a center point then work together to kill the enemies in that location then move to the next step and of opening locks, and doors and such to get the the final Boss. then everyone would enter and kill the boss and minions. There were loot drops and the team that killed the most mobs would gain a special reward. The hole thing was timed and everyone could fail. So you were racing time each other, but had to work together.

Is Turbine looking at or doing something of this nature? A event that sets groups to work together, apposed to each other (no pvp) but trying to complete things first, ect.
