Instance scripting is hilarious

Hatchers in supression room in BWL using Shadowflame

oh and Baron Geddon also spams his aoe every 10 seconds over there instead of every 30.

Shadowflame is not cast by the hatchets. It's a bug related to Nef and returning to BWL that has been previously opened. It's on the bug tracker and obviously a high priority thing to fix.

If you think our QA team is wrong about Baron Geddon's aoe, then please post your evidence on the Bug Tracker so that they can double check it.

A server of this size needs things like this, so Elysium in my honest opinion - Opening new servers and creating a hype train instead of improving the core and web utilities over the course of 6 months would have been way better then rush releasing this. I have come back to a BWL and end game content of poorer quality then it was when I left it.

to put it in perspective, if your at max range and i get a successful channel of missiles on you, you can run behind anything like (even into a building and behind a wall) and my missiles are still gonna hit you in full force for full duration channel. they should have unlimited range in vanilla (which was fixed the minute TBC came out) but LOS needs to be accounted for with them and it's not.  This has been a basically game breaking PvP bug since the initial release of Nostalrius begins almost 2 years ago.

Not having a public database was a conscious choice on Nostalrius and remains so on Elysium. I'm sorry if our priorities do not exactly match yours but it is far more important to us to have stable servers and provide a home to all players.

Our AM is working the way they are supposed to - that's exactly how AM worked back in retail. LOS is a contentious issue because many private servers are content with having TBC or WotLK LOS, whereas Nostalrius went for actual vanilla LOS. You can go back to Nostalrius forums and read the long argumentation regarding LOS in WSG. Point is - many objects that you think would break LOS do not do so in vanilla and that's just how it was. Blizzard fixed/changed several LOS objects and maps as expansions came along.

The Bug Tracker is quite simple to use. If you can navigate your way around the forum, the BT isn't more difficult or cumbersome.

Stealth was fixed once already. That video is outdated. If you think it's still wrong, again, please post in the Bug Tracker and preferably with a video that shows the ranges.

Bug tracker isn't working for me atm

(

Oh. Something went wrong. :(

Internal Server Error

)

Caster Nagas in Zorams strand have no spell projectile animation

probably most known bug is a pet's name "Unknown" and aggresive pets of other players(until clicked) - most annoying thing ever

I do want to tell you that you had stable servers for almost the entire month of December though Pottu.  Fresh start could have been delayed to get things working. There was absolutely no need to rush things and I greatly worry about the scepter chain and the quality of AQ20 and AQ40, the bar is set pretty damn high as The Rebirth (rip due to your rushed fresh start) and Kronos both nailed these instances

Eh, I have heard otherwise but that's neither here nor there. As to launching Elysium PvP, you might not have seen the demand but I assure you, the demand for it was pretty severe. As I said, providing a home to as many players wishing to play here as possible is our number one priority. When it comes to AQ and War Effort, the QA team has been working hard there as they were not burdened overly much by the new launch. But I guess we'll see when it launches on Nostalrius PvP.

To be fair, there are a lot of of bugs or rather unscripted events when it comes to quests though. Many of them have been mentioned already, the Blue Tubers in Razorfen Kraul, the Missing Diplomat Quest event, the Marshal Windsor BRD Jailbreak event, the Putting Down the Banners D2 set BRD event, the RFD escort quest.

Sure this is all leveling content but I would argue that it is equally important to endgame content, missing these finer details takes away from the immersion. I don't want to advertise other servers here but I think this is a good example of paying attention to the finer details that made the game so well polished:

Had some bad exp with mobs in SFK mainly the aggro range being way too far and when you wipe rather than reset they sit at the instance door and lock you in combat when you res and kill them.
That being said i only ran it once and that was 2 days ago, no idea if it's any better now.

RFK escort quest is also broken (NPC is not in the dungeon at all).

Thanks for fixing stealth. By the way, are such fixes applied to all servers?

I will start reporting everything to bug tracker then, as I want quality comparable to Kronos. By the way, I am C#, Mono, Python and Ruby developer. Didn't consider this before but is coding help needed to fix those bugs?
