So it's November 6th...

[Baler]

I really expect an announcement on the home page. It would be extremely poor form to just release a major expansion with no announcement.

In regards to binding in TD it should be possible for only the first few days of kunark launch then stopped.

That's how it was during live kunark release.

unless I'm terribly mistaken on the length of time it was possible to bind there.

Well I dont know anyone from 2000 that actually did bind there because no one really knew that. So it's hardly a classic experience. And they fixed it rather quickly, because it was unbalanced on a large scale. If half the server population would have been bound there, Verant patch notes surely would look different.

I can only see negatives on allowing 3 days of binding there. Arguments see above.

Ok, there is an actual positive. People who manage to do it, get their special sudo pre-order/long term player exclusive and probably feel good about it. At the cost of everyone else. Purely for selfish reasons disguised as "it's classic".

I just want new players and new characters to have equal opportunities on green server. With TD binding, all new characters created in 4 days and after are 2nd class characters in terms of mobility.

That's like everything else in the game. People who played before you got a chance to get stuff you didn't because no longer drops/changed/etc.


But binding in TD is really not that big of a deal, either. it ill serve you well for staying back home in the classic base of the game, but it's pretty useless in kunark and beyond when compared to the utility of being able to bind wherever you are hunting.

[Ravager]

Corpse runs are classic. Don't bind anywhere if you want a true classic experience.

Let me guess, you want a Mana Stone when you re-roll another caster too, don't you?

This same argument can be used to say there should never have been manastones, ring of the deads, rubicite, jboots from najena and guise of the deceivers.

Why would I? And why would I re-roll my character? No. Is this a thing now? They are tradeable, nothing about them is exclusive.

True. But that's not the topic today. Although you can trade each of them, so no exclusivity. And I prefer SoW potions and red dyed plate over jboots and rubicite anytime. I dont think the others are a big deal either. I like legacy items, they tell stories....
