Ahh, thank you. Might be a fun change from getting kicked by the Fey woman and her self-healing, bouncing wolves!

Jackard posted:Several bosses are weak to specific builds when you solo, and hers is the unholy shield that spawns a minion when hit, from killing the same necromancer boss that gives you the study Does this boss also always drop Recipe:The Ember Chain? Happened to me 3 times in a row so I'm starting to think so. If there was another fixed recipe drop I'd want to see, it might be Printing Press.

I think certain bosses have fixed recipe drop ranges, i'm guessing hers are t1 amulets and you just got the same 1/4th drop or whatever a few times. Idk if there's one that drops paper press, might be but I don't do bosses frequently enough to notice their whole drop tables. Is there a good wiki for that yet?

Ra Ra Rasputin posted:Research always unlocks cosmetic-only parts last and is specifically all put into a "cosmetic" category, separate from special floors and storage bins I disagree with this one only because each tier has like six separate spellpower trinket slots, and you've probably already decided which one you want, so the rest are just clogging up your research attempts. I'd rather have a cool cosmetic than another trinket I won't craft. Personally, I'd like to see a more interesting research system where you had some control over the direction of your research; maybe even something as simple as a tech tree could be enough. But, really, what I want more than anything is a more varied crafting system. Just having tiers of almost identical weapons is incredibly boring. Not sure what the point is for each weapon within a tier to be a separate tech, either.

I think we should be able to make custom weapons using special ingredients that let us choose the Q and E powers. Make your own personal weapon with the power combo you like.

So I took a break from getting clowned on by the fey woman and decided to do the rat boss. I mean, you craft him in your own home. How hard can it be? Well, Putrid Rat utterly wrecked me. Thrice. I had bad luck with weapon drops, not a single vicious copper item, so my dps was low. And he doesn't de-spawn, so I was basically evicted from my own evil castle by a giant rat! But not for long. As I was looking for mats to craft potions for another try, I saw a deer bouncing around. Normally they have crap blood stats, but this one was 100% Beast power. Just brimming with animal power. I pounced it and with all 5 buffs active, managed to dispatch the rat. So that is the story of the homeless vampire who reclaimed his place by channeling Bambi's power over 9000.

The 30% horse damage nerf won't stop people using it for the real reason they used it, because it's the only way to safely dance around most enemy attacks without having to expend cooldowns constantly and getting smacked when your spells are on cooldown. Some good minor number tweaks though.

The horse change is good for pvp though, where it was particularly strong specifically because it absolutely chunked people in a very generous AoE, especially pre-iron where the opportunity cost was lower

I can't particularly say I like those balance changes since part of the reason Chaos Volley was fun was because it was powerful and fun and other spells felt anemic. Also nothing to really make melee worth engaging in at all which is probably the bigger problem.

# ? Jun 16, 2022 18:09 |

Sure but chaos volley could also crit on each DoT tick which give it an average dmg range above basically all the ults, let alone other skills.

Basically every change in those patch notes is in service to pvp, except the border dismantle change which I think just patched a design oversight.

IcePhoenix posted:any system where pvp balance starts to effect pve is garbage Why wouldn’t you want to balance this game around the PVP? The building and PVE is serviceable, but it is absolutely not the main draw here. If you think of Vrising as a hybrid between Rust and Valheim, it definitely leans more toward the Rust side of things where the PVE systems serve the PvP environment, not the other way around. Especially when the balance changes are basically just small numbers tweaks, it seems like a (somewhat entitled) knee jerk reaction. causticBeet fucked around with this message at 19:42 on Jun 16, 2022 |

SettingSun posted:Yes. Build stairs on the slope, which doesn't require nor counts as a border. Stairs count as a border when you place them. You can't "claim" a slope with a generic border, stairs are the border placement for slopes and them counting as a border is why you can then continue expanding your border beyond the slope after building them. I did a lot of debating on whether or not I should keep my stairs when I noticed that they counted towards my 250 and I was coming up like ten squares short of the entire plateau I'm on IcePhoenix fucked around with this message at 22:00 on Jun 17, 2022 |

Fighting Gorecrusher in a duos game was leagues easier than doing it alone, even with the increase add spawns. Having your partner be able to die and just run back as long as you can hold out goes such a long way.

If playing singleplayer remember you can change a whole lot of settings, you could increase drops and refine times by x5 and also cut boss health or damage by half if you'd have more fun that way, though I find if the bosses are hard you'll actually experiment with skills and when to use the reflect barriers to chunk a boss during it's bullet hell move.

But 2+ is always cool. Having someone else to split the adds or lend support makes even bigger fights a lot more dynamic and fun.

Devs had a interview recently where they talked about what they plan for the future like adding new weapons like a greatsword or figuring out what they want the replayability of the endgame to be and dracula's castle. Main thing that interests me was that they said they were looking into allowing players to make multiple floor vertical castles instead of wide castles which I think would solve the majority of issues with castle building currently, going tall instead of wide would let the map have more space for more players, it would look less dumb and boxy from a aerial view and it would probably make PvP more interesting if you had to castlevania your way up to the top, plus it would be more fun to jump off the top ledge or bat form in and out.
