An IMPORTANT change to Masterlevel-raids EVERYONE READ
Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2005 10:44 am
I dont know if everyone reads (and interprets) patch-notes carefully, however with the patch today introduced on Prydwen there's a MASSIVE change in Masterlevel-raids:
MASTER LEVEL UPDATE
In response to overwhelming player feedback about the master level system, we have made a change to the way that credit is awarded for all x.10 final encounters. This will make the entire ML system much more forgiving if you miss a step along the way to your x.10 goal in each master level. Thank you for all of your feedback on this issue !
- You will now receive credit for any Master Level x.10 step without first completing all prior steps.
There are two new commands, available only to BG leaders :
- /bg credit will display credit for Battlegroup Master Level encounters that have been completed within the last 10 minutes. This command can be used by the Battlegroup leader without restriction.
- /bg grantcredit [MasterLevel] [PlayerName] will allow you to grant credit for completed Master Level steps, with the following restrictions :
- You may only grant credit for steps completed within the last 10 minutes.
- You must be within 1000 units of the player you are granting credit to.
- The ML step must be a battlegroup-enabled step.
- You must be within 2000 units of 75% of your battlegroup members (in other words, the majority of your BG must be there with you).
Okay what does this mean in practice:
You do NOT have to done pre-steps before a masterlevel-raid. If you can enter the area the Battlegroup-raid is in, you will get CREDIT for ALL steps done, including 7.10. For example: You join up a ML7-raid without having ML7.1-7.6. The BG does 7.7, .8, .9 and .10. You receive credit for those 4 steps. Two days later your guild goes farming in ML7 and you get 7.1 - 7.5 done. Now you have completed ML7 entirely.
And, a most welcome change:
If you go LD but come back within 10 minutes upon completion of a step you can get credit granted by the raidleader.
