Thinking about starting a second toon to play with goons. What's the weekend warrior/fresh toon scene looking like on Pyrallis?

Any truth to a crafting experience nerf coming soon? Its already quite a slog to level most things. Everything requires a massive amount of materials to get to 200

ZombieCrew posted:Any truth to a crafting experience nerf coming soon? Its already quite a slog to level most things. Everything requires a massive amount of materials to get to 200 Based on PTR data experience gained for higher tier crafting is improved, making it more worthwhile to craft the higher level stuff. But overall exp needed is also increased at a higher rate than crafts are. So yes, this ends up being a nerf to the leveling speed. Of course it is PTR so it might change. Dumb though that they are even considering changing stuff like that now. To be fair the whole crafting situation is a big hassle because of the storage situation, so I can't be bothered anyway.

Full weapon skill balance changes on the ptr are below. Overall some good changes, nerfs to mages are questionable and a buff to hammer? Mighty gavel already does a ton of damage. As a spear user, I’m down with these buffs. Great Axe “Gravity” passive updated to “After you cause a pull, your foe is rooted for 0.25 seconds” Whirlwind now has grit. Hammer wrecking ball fortify buff duration increased 4s → 7s wrecking ball damage increased 120% → 130% mighty gravel cooldown reduced 22s → 20s mighty gravel base dmg increased 160% → 170% mighty gravel final upgrade dmg increased 200% → 220% armor breaker rend upgrade buffed 15% → 20% armor breaker does 25% bonus dmg to full hp enemy instead of 15% (final upgrade) warhammer exhaustion from abilities passive now reduces enemy stamina regen by 20% instead of 15% Sword leaping strike dmg buffed 135% → 150% leaping strike cooldown reduced 25s → 18s shield bash weaken extended 4s → 10s Hatchet aoe disease cloud duration 3s → 6s disease throw debuff durations 5s → 10s disease throw on <30% hp enemy debuff durations upgrade 15s rending throw cooldown reduced 15s → 8s Spear Cyclone base dmg increased 110% → 130% Sweep ‘coup de grac’ bonus attack buffed dmg 125% → 150% Perforate base dmg of each hit increased 70% → 80% Skewer bleed DoT/tick dmg increased 10% per second → 20% per second Bow Poison shot cooldown reduced 35s → 30s Poison shot direct hit upgrade nerfed 200% → 150% dmg Poison shot can no longer headshot.

Did they change the way combat works in the past few days? All the sudden, mobs are just crushing me for no reason. Is there some kind of damage mitigation meta I'm missing? 2-3 level 34 mobs are absolutely wrecking me at level 44.

Is it true that penetrating shot can't be used right after firing a heavy shot? I'd read that it was changed on the PTR. This would really suck because heavy shot -> penetrating shot is a great opener.

fire staff is going to be fine. the build is going to change a lot though, the new fire staff builds coming out are pretty fuckin wacky and they hurt people ice gauntlet needs those nerfs bad (or I need to switch to medium armor).

Is there anyone here that really dominates in open world pvp through range and kiting? It looks like fire/ice and swapping in life staff as needed and running light armor would be pretty OP for open world kiting. Anyone have feedback on this? What potions and foods are necessary?

A relatively quick and cheap way i've found to boost territory standing (and Arcana too, I guess) is to just go to an arcana shop with a poo poo load of hyssop and water and create a ton of small healing potions. You can trash them afterwards, but if you look around sometimes you can find hyssop for like .03 - .05 a piece on the market and then just go to the nearest river to collect a ton of free fresh water. You get 2 territory standing per potion, so if you can come up with 5k hyssop (250 gold at .05 a pop), you can get a pretty quick and cheap 10k territory standing.

if you dont need the extreme kite/chase potential you can swap rapier with spear and instead gain an entire world of CC for dive/counter-diveDumbWhiteGuy posted:A relatively quick and cheap way i've found to boost territory standing (and Arcana too, I guess) is to just go to an arcana shop with a poo poo load of hyssop and water and create a ton of small healing potions.

Slow News Day posted:Which is better, musket or bow? Bow is overall more damage in all circumstances (PvE and pvp) but has a much higher player skill requirement and ceiling musket is king of (counter)siege in that if you see it you can hit it and so offensive wars benefit from 3-5 maxed out musketeers blowing up defensive siege musket is easier to hit with overall than bow but costs a lot of damage as a result (you also have to stop moving through the full 2s reload animation which suuuuuucks while you can dodge between shots with a bow and still kite)

Hyssop prices probably gonna jump some in advance of the patch. Idk if it’s much of an arbitrage opportunity tho cause it’s so easy to get and so cheap

Looks like merges are coming, but they are going to attempt to be smart about how servers are merged together. I'm also happy to hear they are looking into better ways to incentivize players to switch to the under dog factions.

They must really hate ice gauntlet, 30 second cooldown on ice storm plus the 580 quest one has loving DEX on it and the 600 GS one has Unending Thaw which is still bugged form day one to make the ice storm do 0 damage. At this point I'm pretty sure AGS has hired the top guys from MWO as consultants.

LuckyCat posted:My favorite part is no minimap because MY IMMERSION. Never mind literally every other piece of UI which the same argument could be made for. Well, ignoring that bit, they aren't wrong about the rest though. At least in terms of spotting open world pvp players crouched in bushes. Currently that can hide your nameplate. A minimap would just make them spotted. And if the minimap didn't display that information, there isn't much point to the minimap. But, whatever.
