Renown potion locations and quests

So it's pretty common knowledge that you can do a quest in KaK for 3 renown potions. I saw a post on Reddit that gave the location of a potion in Blighted Isle, at 31k, 46k in a pile of dirt on an island. In chat someone told me about another potion at 23k, 0k in Ostland in a bottle next to a tree ...

Also, can someone explain why Shield Rush doesn't add any block when full Sov?
7p bonus also provides 10% block, which doesn't stack with ability based block.
I see, thank you.

Re: Discussion about tank in keep and defensive stat

KotBS armor buff stacks with pots, unlike the armor buff from other tanks (like IB). Also, can someone explain why Shield Rush doesn't add any block when full Sov? Finally, 50% Vigilance with 33% uptime is like having permanent 17% damage reduction (but better, because incoming damage is not evenly ...

Re: [PTS] Patch Notes 16/08/2024

If these are the only changes I've been waiting for to RP, there's no reason to come back. Big nerf to GG, the only healing skill that wasn't copy/paste. Only one Master Rune that matters because it literally procs 4 tactics constantly with 100% uptime and no button presses. A cleanse that not even ...

Re: Lots of Numbers: Twilight's Tide Event Scenarios

The entire approach to pug sc is just not good enough. Starting by the name. Some players dont even know Discordant is a solo scenario. Haha so true. I remember it was a long time before I knew what Discordant was and that it was any different than just queuing solo into regular scenarios. I ...

Re: New player experience so far

destro is overally more fun to play as for a very simple reason - you dont have to fight destro careers. dont have to be constantly snared by dok covenants, harassed by shamans gork sez stop m1, threatened by choppa/maras pulls, kited by rshs and so on. So true! The "annoying" abilities are ...

Re: New player experience so far

I've experienced something...odd I was fighting stuff as normal (playing a high elf, but running around Norsca doing the empire quests). I hit level 16 while fighting multiple mobs. Immediately died, didn't really see what happened. Respawned, walked a few feet outside town, got swarmed by junk ...

Re: New player experience so far

I pretty much give up on the game at 40/45. The renown grind is just daunting, the gear gap is massive, and there is little to no PUG scene. Nothing says fun like logging into your lvl 40 healer (on either side) and seeing no open warbands despite a keep siege happening... I think your assumptions ...

Re: SC Quee system rework status

scs used to be fun, now that 95% of scs are 500-0 one sided farm feast. Scenarios were just as bad in live toward the end. The problem gets worse as the game ages because premades are made of veterans and their gear gets better over time, while pugs are largely a mix of newish/casual players, whose ...

Re: Help: Choose Class

I play a rr48 heal shaman and this is what my RoR experience is like: 1. Log in. 2. Check open warbands. None open, even at eu primetime. 3. Head to zone where it looks like there's action. 4. See lots of destro fighting. 5. Check open warbands again. None open. 6. Complain in chat. 7. Log off. This ...
