As a player since session 1, I have been astounded at some of the changes Paul has made to this game, and have managed to adjust to most of them.
I cannot, however, understand the current caster setup, where a crappy barb splattercaster causing 10 dmg per char hits can out-score me on the xp,
and leave me 6 lvls behind, when I am doing all the damn killing as a melee player.
This is why I buy exp glyphs, so I don't get left in the dust of all those splatter casts. For those of us with average gear, glyphs are a great way to help the team. Glyphs make objectives like Sneaky less of a pain (lpa, mpa, life steal, armor pierce, quick draw [esp. for heavies], crit strike, mana syphon, mana skin, etc. help). I'm assuming that everyone already knows how glyphs can help, so I won't go into all the different ways. To get back to the original point, EXP. GLYPHS have allowed me (pure melee) to keep up with the casters in many a game.
Support your local glyphers!

I didn't know this! Yeah, I couldn't agree more. It saddens me how this community is treating each other and I know a lot of ppl that have quit or are quitting this game as a result (to the those that troll me--This should be a glorious day for you as I'm about to be one of them). Paul doesn't deliver updates when he says (one was due Nov 7th or 1 month after his last update), Paul provides no verbal status updates to what he's doing anymore, and even the dmn help files aren't updated for the noobs. Couple this with disease infested threads on how Trolls are poisoning this community and LS has become an undesirable place for many.
I didn't realize this, either, and it makes sense now. I wondered where all the hate was coming from. It's gotten to the point where I almost don't want to open the LS forum when I log in anymore.

There is only one thing that bugs me with 1.20...
Reduction to gaining proficiencies and deaths are easily obtained.
The good points that have come to light...
Randomness with monster placement and other skills like fishing glyphing (more likely to reduce botters)
Casting delay when you splash cast, pity this was not implemented before update without the Ctrl+Click
Welling is super easy when you play GM with other GM players, now you can just Horde all the whites
on your mules as much as you can and just bang them all out when you find a well around level71 b4 MQ
No Maze No More... oh come on... this is the thing that alot of guilds are constantly wanting to do now,
the drops are by far superior than even climbing... look at all the great items coming out of the woodwork
in Softcore, look at all the price drops for gear that people spent 1.5x more fg before 1.20.
____________
At this rate, you will be see'ing 90% + EE items selling for 1-5fg on the MP because every tom, dick and harry
will have something similar if not better.
Agreed on the bolded parts, and thanks for being one of those GM slashers to well with.
