When will AOE limit be increased?

[Darksinga]

Hail!

When/which patch will make AOE's hit more than 4 targets?

[Jean-Baptiste Cutting]

Bards are Norrath’s cancer. Hopefully the limit is never removed.

Not classic.

Not classic.

Anything that fucks bards up the ass I am all for, classic or otherwise.

[Natewest1987]

Lol can you imagine all the ranting when and if they change ae

[TripSin]

well wizard target based aoes are 4 targets

rains are max 4 hits

only PBAOE is unlimited target, blue icon

or bard aoe dots

Bard aoe dot can hit unlimited number of targets?

[Baler]

when the limit 4 on AE is removed it will be 25 like it is on blue.

[Wallicker]

I’d like to see it go up to atleast 15. I can see where unlimited could easily cause disruptions although I’d love to kill 150+ mobs at once lol.

The best bard kiting was before low hp aggro changes on blue. Could pull all the sub-51 mobs in skyfire, get aggro onto one character who stays low on hp and far ahead of the pack, and have a bard aoe down 100-120 mobs that were level 45+ ... Lol.

[Wallicker]

Yikes hahaha �� did that work in fear too?

[Tecmos Deception]

Some mobs in skyfire had level ranges always below 51 so you could safely pull all those. Not sure if anything in fear is always 50 or under.

[thesoundofmerk]

PBAOE is limited to 4 right now too

[Swish]

Sub-100 ping is also not classic to 1999 ^^

I've never played a bard and I don't know how their aoe's are supposed to function right now but within the first week of green I was seeing bards swarming up like 20 beetles at a time in north karana and it was annoying as fuck

like yeah i get wanting to kill a bunch of mobs at once, but it would take them like ten minutes to kill the whole swarm meanwhile there isn't shit to kill, and then when they start repopping the bard is already rounding them back up again

I mean, maybe? That would take a very long time. I'd see NK bards with about 4 beetles. They seemed to know what's up.

[Wallicker]

yea pulling and hoarding more than you can hit is shitty... I think there was a ruling if a bard had more than 25 you could pull extras off the kite in blue so I’d think the same would apply on green if a bard has more than 4 you could rip off the extras! *warning tho* if you do that and the bard dies or zones all his adds will come to you unless you take the one you peeled to leash range!

[LegendZapp]

It's time for bard's to be able to pbaoe 25 mobs!

Back in this era there was no leashing either. Late at night PST, when there weren't any xp'ers in DL, we'd gather 90+% of the mobs in zone and aoe blast um. Definitely numbering in the hundreds. I'm glad you can't do it anymore, but it was good times. No idea how somebody figured out you could do that.

[Frug]

Sub-100 ping is also not classic to 1999 ^^

Neither is red, but alas.

[DevGrousis]

Can anyone tell me whether or not the PBAOE cap is ever being lifted? I played a bard a few years back and it was super fun. I always made sure to put out /OOC every 15 or 20 minutes letting everyone know it was me and to let me know if I was pulling their mobs. Inviting randoms into my group, etc. if every bard did that, I imagine there wouldn’t have ever been a problem in the first place lol

[Wallicker]

Will be lifted to 25 mobs in a little over a month.

According to this timeline recently posted, April 2, 2020. Not too far away.

Not classic.

Neither are a lot of things on p99. What's your point?

I don’t see anything about tab targeting or UI implementation on the development timeline. Any idea on those?

I think the green UI stays the same in Kunark, but not certain on that. Velious UI (the one on blue) comes with, well, Velious.

Unsure when tab targeting is added.
