爆料者持續更新中!

現在戰爭全面開打了，最初其實只是 LFG 跟目前的社群公關經理有點不爽，但是愈演愈
烈，終於...兩邊就幹開了，目前 SOE 官方已經正式將 EQ2 Flames 排除他們的關係名
單，而 LFG 也正式宣佈 EQ2 Flames 歡迎所有 "反 - SOE" 的網友一起公開幹樵!

至於原始的幹意，是來自於 SOE 最新辦的一次與社群玩家見面會，除了 TenTon
Hammer 的 Coyote 之外，SOE 只找了一些所謂 "For Fun" 玩家去，其中一個女性的
社群名人還有張跟他們經理喝酒拍照的圖，於是在 EQ2 Flames 被大家指著鼻子罵，說
SOE 只會聽那些自以為整天角色扮演把 "我是矮人 xxx" 掛在嘴邊的人，卻不願意聽聽一
些技術好、真正對遊戲有所了解以及經常參與 Raid 的玩家的意見。大家也知道 EQ2
Flames 上面罵人都很直接的，所以各種各樣的髒話、酸語都傾巢而出，然後也有人開始
到處匿名爆料製作人團隊各種不為人知的事蹟。

目前 LFG 向 SOE 喊話說，要是 SOE 願意寫篇文情並茂的文章並公告來表達他們的誠
意，或許 EQ2 Flames 會願意調整他們目前的態度，並結束這場鬧劇。我個人的評估，
LFG 大概是站在優勢因為大多數高手 (也是大多數會上網表達意見的玩家) 多半站在他這
邊，因為 SOE 最近的各種表現實在太糟了...。

戰火持續延燒中。

公關經理 Gnorbin 在論壇上解釋說，他們加入 Raid 公會是為了幫忙測試因為目前的
Test Server 無用，這是一件很合理的事情，就像修車的身上會帶板手是一樣的!

於是也因此被大家猛烈砲轟，因為 SOE 目前在 CS (Customer Service) 以及 Test
的部份實在做的太糟，雖然相較於台灣大概已經好了很多倍了，不過老外還是難以接受，
認為付錢給官方完半成品應該可以上法院了 XD

官方在 Test Server 板面開了一篇文問大家如何才能提升願意前往測試的人口以及品
質，目前回覆頁數已達 10 頁，大部分的人提出的點子都蠻不錯，包含幾個知名的玩家以
及大公會的會長，多著重在提供完整的功能例如能夠隨意調整等級跟法術等級、裝備等，
並能在 Test Server 上放完整的 Patch 訊息 (因為 SOE 喜歡搞 Ninja Patch)，也有
人提出應該開 Test 限定帳號然後可以免費玩等等。

回到 Flames 那邊，LFG 把一篇網友寫的反 SOE 的宣言置頂，整個很挑釁，還把簽名檔
故意換成學 SOE 的 EQ2 Flames Community Manager 惡搞。

另外，也有人開始進行罷玩連署以及要求 LFG 開個老人板來讓這些拒玩的人能夠聚眾討
論別的遊戲 XD

罵一罵也好~
檢討一下~
希望這次鬧劇有正面效應~

好，我在 po 前篇的時候沒去看重點整理，看了之後嚇一跳，科科!

首先，被爆料的製作人中有人開始發難，是知名被討厭改東改西的 Aeralik 他 PM 給
EQ2 Flames 的網管 LFG 已下內容:

Quote:

but this is fucking retarded and even more childish. keeping fucking people

there.

翻譯:

如果你想利用我以及那個機掰的投票 (LFG 置頂了一個製作人是否該參加公會的 Raid?
的投票) 來達到增加你的網站的廣告收益，那抱歉我想差不多了。我本來想要你刪掉其中
一篇文章不過這更他媽的智障且幼稚。你就繼續讓大家罵 SOE 你就知道為什麼大家討厭
你的站了!

LFG 回應說，第一...我也討厭這樣，我曾想要幫你。而這跟我的廣告收入一點屁關係都沒
有，請看我上篇回覆，拜託。第二...這個狀況是你自己造成的，不是我，是 "你" 自己告
訴別人你的角色 ID 不是我，一切都是你自己挖的坑而我只是幫你告訴大家而已。

還沒完! 更驚悚的還在後頭! XDDD

知名玩家 Gaige 爆料指出...

Aeralik- Confirmed Cross-Dresser, Transvestite Extraordinaire. Gave free
ingame services for sexual favors for player formerly known as
Laps/Livany. I know quite a bit more, but I would have to get intouch with
said player to make sure I had all my facts straight.

翻譯:

Aeralik，已經確認是一個變裝癖喜歡打扮成女性，曾經與玩家 Laps / Livany 進行性交
易來換取遊戲內的服務，我知道更多...不過我還需要與一些玩家聯絡來求證。

此外，專職測試的製作人 Rothgar (就是上文在官方論壇開文問說要怎樣才能增加測試人
數的) 曾在他自己的遊戲內公會論壇上 po 文如下:



這篇文章主要在說關於 Ranger 的弓箭跟 CA 之間的關係。

再來是寄信給 NPU 會長的製作人的信件原文，一字不改! 這可是老查攻略呢!

Trakanon’s Lair raid zone is now ready for combat testing.



· Explanation: GU40 features a new adventure zone, Trakanon’s lair, an
epic x4 raid zone.

· Testing : The zone is basically an x4 raid group instance which houses
Trakanon (and nothing else). It is accessed through veeshan’s peak, so
massive guarding isn’t considered necessary since it would not be
envisioned that anyone could make it through veeshan’s peak.

· To enter the zone use /zone
exp04_dun_veeshans_peak_epic01_trakanon, there is no content label

· When you enter you are in a zone in/zone out room which leads to
gigantic stairs. You must use the side area of the stairs to walk up into the
main lair.

· When you first enter the zone, trakanon will greet you from far above the
platform, then fly down. At this point you can engage trakanon.

· You must have a chelsith stone with you to have any chance to succeed.
/spawn expendables/baubles/chelsith_stone to get one for now. It will drop
in the leviathan encounter in-game.

· Once the fight begins, you will notice the holder of a chelsith stone can
touch the orb altar on the far side of the platform to energize it. Once
energized if you stay within 14m of the energized orb structure, you are
protected from many of trakanons more powerful abilities.

· The key to winning this encounter is to realize you must all fight within
14m of the activated orb on the far side of the platform. Trakanons arcane
maelstrom breath weapon is far too lethal outside this protective area. In
addition trakanons knockback abilities will prove problematic, and all but
one of them is negated when you are close to this orb object (if its
energized).

· Trakanon has the following combat abilities. Take special note of which
spells combo off one another, and which spell effects are negated by
proximity to the orb. Make sure they are NOT negated otherwise, make
sure they ARE negated when you are close to the orb. Make sure the
combo effects ONLY happen when you are hit with one spell when the
second spell hits you, and do NOT go off otherwise.

· Trakanon is a level 87 warlock. He will periodically cast Wing Buffet and
Tail Swipe. Wing buffet will STUN everyone in front of him for 2.5 seconds.
It will also KNOCK everyone back UNLESS they are within 14m of the
energized orb. Tail swipe does some damage, and stuns players for about 3
seconds. It will also KNOCK BACK any players that are NOT within 14m of
the energized orb.

· Trakanon is immune to all control spells, and will double attack on melee
10% more than normal.

· Trakanon has Arcane Aura of the Wyrmlord on him. On take damage 10%
of the time, players will be hit with Pestilential Pause. This does a slight
amount of damage to the player and for the next 10 seconds, all the
players spells take much longer to cast, and are basically at half
effectiveness (heals and damage are half as effective as normal). Also your
attack speed is reduced considerably during this time. This effect is not
dispellable. Also, 2% of the time trakanon is hit with a hostile spell, he will
heal himself for 2%.

· Trakanon will keep PROPHETIC SCRUTINY on one player at all times. With
this effect on you, any spells you cast are interrupted, if the spell is
interruptable. Every time you start to cast a spell you will be hit with
PROPHETIC BOLT, which a small amount of damage and interrupts the spell
you are starting to cast. This should be active on one player in the raid at
all times

· Trakanon will keep Prescient gaze on all players at all times. It should
never be off you for more than a few seconds even if you die and are
rezzed back in. It causes all players to mana burn, using health whenever
they use mana. It also causes players to have prescient intervention cast
on them 8% of the time they try and cast a beneficial spell. Prescient
intervention interrupts the spell they are trying to cast, and stifles the
player for 2 seconds, and does a small amount of damage to the players
mana pool.

· One player will generally have MARK OF REPULSION on him/her. This
spell will go off at some random time, never less than 30 secs after it was
placed on you. It has an hourglass icon. When it goes off that player will be
hit with static repulsion, a targeted AOE that WILL knock back all players
within 22m of the person who had Mark of Repulsion on him/her. You are
NEVER protected from this knockback, even if near the orb. You must move
away from your raid party so as not to endanger them with your Mark of
Repulsion/Static Repulsion combo.

· 3.5 seconds AFTER static repulsion goes off, Trakanon will cast Arcane
Maelstrom. A powerful aoe that does heat damage, does damage to a
random item in everyones inventory, and does massive MAGIC BASED
health and mana damage UNLESS you are close to the energized orb. You
avoid MAGIC BASED MANA AND HEALTH DAMAGE only if you are near the
energized orb.

· Trakanon will periodically cast Fetid Cloud and Toxic Tempest as well.
Fetid Cloud does disease based health damage the closer you are to trak
the more disease damage you take, and slows your attack speed. If you
have Toxic Tempest still on you when fetid cloud hits you, you will take
ADDITIONAL MASSIVE poison based health damage.

· Toxic tempest works similarly to Fetid Cloud, toxic tempest does range
relative, poison based health damage to all players. If you have fetid cloud
on you when Toxic tempest hits you, you will take additional MASSIVE
disease damage as well. Toxic tempest slows your movement rate as well.

· 800 seconds after the raid fight begins, the platform you fight on begins to
lower into the lava. This takes about 20-30 secs, after that time you will be
forced to fight trakanon in the lava, and it won’t likely work well for you. If
you hop away from the platform, you wont be protected by the orb so
that’s not really an option. If you stay near the orb, you will be covered in
lava so that’s not really an option. You have only about 820 secs to win this
fight.

· If trakanon dies, the platform will rise. If trakanon resets, the platform will
rise.

· Make sure the MYRIAD of ways you can wipe and reset, and feign to
exploit are covered. Make sure the zone doesn’t leave itself in some odd
state if you wipe and come back at the various stages, and make sure you
cant complete things out of order in any way. Make sure the platform
resets, and the encounter resets as it should if you win or lose.
The following E-Mail was sent to me by a member of NPU that is no longer
in the guild.

mcgurer@hotmail.com = Alix 也就是 NPU 會長。
nszots@soe.sony.com = Zoltaroth 則是 EQ2 Coder | 在 NPU 是 Astaroth SK

以上這封信本來沒要 po 出來不過有人去函爆料者所以...他就順便造福一下 EQ2 Flames
板友們。

此外，NPU 還透過他們與 SOE 的關係獲得 3 個免費的角色轉移服務 (不知道有沒有包含
Clink...XD)，雖然才 $150 USD 不過爆料者說這可是 10 個月的月費耶!

爆料者宣稱，這些扒糞行為將會持續到 SOE 願意出面表態以及願意有所回應為止!

Crlight 寫:此外，專職測試的製作人 Rothgar (就是上文在官方論壇開文問說要怎樣才能增加測試人
數的) 曾在他自己的遊戲內公會論壇上 po 文如下:



這篇文章主要在說關於 Ranger 的弓箭跟 CA 之間的關係。

那篇是一年前的東西啦
也是眾遊俠靠背說大bug一年多了也不改
因為當初 Rothgar 是玩遊俠的
他找到了一些問題
也加以改善
所以在遊俠論壇中他算是受歡迎的Dev
只是後來他不知道為什麼就沒再管了
交給了上面所述的變裝癖Aeralik管
然後一開始 Aeralik 都是一副「遊俠很好啊！沒什麼問題啊」
或者「work as intended」(這東西作用和原本的設計一樣)
遊俠才會開始罵SOE
前一陣子Aeralik終於鬆口說LU44要改掉遊俠的bug並且增加遊俠的功能
現在出了這種狀況
我看很難說了.............

原來如此
之前去EQ2FLAME就看到有辦投票
說NPU的Raid進度是不是不該算在Server Progession
大部分都說不該 因為他們有gm協助

然後也有人提到sd
但是有人反應說sd是全部靠自己來打的

題外話..sd是不是要換server了 @@

其實，EQ2FLAME近期也有一篇是在問SD解散了嗎？應該在GENERAL GAMEPLAY那一區。
http://www.eq2flames.com/general-gamepl ... psing.html

開板的人其實在問一些SD的老會員紛紛離開SD，是不是SD要解散了??結果就變成SD的新會長與離開或被踢的老會員之間的爆料、謾罵。

好像新轉過去UNREST伺服器的公會叫做Confirmed http://eq2players.station.sony.com/guil ... Id=2098105

Innermirror 寫:好像新轉過去UNREST伺服器的公會叫做Confirmed

Confirmed 是已確認的意思，他們在那邊一直回 Confirmed 是說某某公會名已確認，不
過應該都是唬爛目前還沒看到正式的公會名稱。

此外，主要的行動只有部分的人，加上在 Nektulos 伺服器也很有名的 Dissolution 部分的
人重組，Unrest 也是蠻多 Dev 在玩的 Server 所以也有人說是不是又要重建 NPU 模式。

不，他們公會名是真的叫Confirmed。

SD多數人是真的走了，移到unrest。
他們星期天就閃人囉。

哦哦，原來是因為 EQ2 Players 今天才更新所以我沒查到...XD

anyway, 現在剩下 Phay 了...XD
