Btw, besides the official article for ptr, linked ah, and void gauntlet, there was a post from a dev in the forums about combat:

https://forums.newworld.com/t/dev-blog-combat-responsiveness/526907

Basically a goal of making the combat more fluid and consistent between weapons.

Yesssss, void gauntlet. Looks like a promising list at least.

Edit: Actually thinking about it some more. Depending on how the healing works out, the fact that void gaunt has a healing tree and scales off int as well as focus would make it a better option for an off hand weapon to many weapons. Up to and including the musket. I've been struggling with that, but if I could go with max int musket/void gaunt while still having healing and melee, that sounds ideal for my playstyle.

Healing only scales with focus afaik. Like if you put an int gem into a life staff, the healing isn’t affected. I’m assuming it would be the same for void gauntlet or else it would be very broken.

Healing is based on weapon damage. It doesn't count bonus damage from gems. And life staff damage scales exclusively to focus.

Yep, I was thinking about the potential of a void gauntlet + musket build after they “announced” it with the PTR today, could be an interesting combo with max int 🤔 guess I’ll have to test it tomorrow

Lol at people policing a New World thread for wrong think.

According to Harvard Health,  phobia is a persistent, excessive, unrealistic fear of an object, person, animal, activity or situation.

People with phobias go out of their way to avoid said objects, persons, animals, activities or situations but here I am trying my best to play games and participate in activities with goons despite my "wrong think". If anything, certain people seem to poo poo their pants any time they see my name pop up.

That's why I'm glad I transfered over to the new server.

I'm just really saddened that I won't be able to play with my best friends again because this is what they think of me 😔

This isn't correct. You can gem a life staff for INT, and the damage it deals will scale with INT. But the healing will only ever scale with FOC. I tested this personally.

This is also what I have read and what leads me to believe the damage of void gauntlet will scale with focus or int but the healing will only scale with int. I imagine it will be a situation where one skill tree favors an int build and one favors a focus build.

99% chance he posts another meltdown within a day once he’s off the month probe. He just cannot help himself. So that problem will solve itself soon enough.

That is because gems cause your damage to be split. You have base damage (modified by it's innate stat) and then elemental damage (modified by either base damage from before or the gem's innate stat). That is where the number + number come from. Healing ignores the elemental damage. So it only works on base damage. That means in the current build, heals will scale on focus as there isn't another stat to alter the base damage of life staff.

On the flip side, amber gem focus scaling has been broken since day one, or more likely day negative something because they didn't work in beta either.

The gameplay is great and the act of playing is pretty satisfying.

All the peripheral stuff is 100% hosed

Economy? Thoroughly hosed eternally due currency and item duping. Some have millions in coin and full sets of endgame gear. They got a 24 hour ban as punishment for this. These people have like... years ahead of anyone who did not dupe.

Pvp? hosed. It is a money loss to pvp.

Outpost rush? hosed. Pops once a day or less for the tumbleweed-rolling-by empty servers.

Servers? hosed. Dead.

Faction balance? hosed. No reason to play any but the winning faction or transfer off if not part of the winning faction.

Anyone who didn't exploit early and often? Turbo hosed. Very little consequence to most who did cheat. Some did get permanent banned but most got a 24 hour ban from my understanding.

So yeeeeah. Game is fun, game is hosed. They honestly should have shut the poo poo down when they first got wind of gold exploiting and rolled it back and then fixed the exploit.

Basically it is easier to send a man to space than it is to make a good mmo. :(

Broken beyond the scope of AGS'S skills, ability, timeline, and level of effort to fix? I believe so. I hope that I am wrong, though. :)
