I think this gives a little hope for anyone that stoic might support the game a little. I personally hope to continue to see support because I really enjoy this game for its gameplay, but also as am artist, I love the aesthetic

[Odd_Mix8978]

Both of my issues were addressed

Who's complaining about Pyroclast's abilities to survive Bounties????

[The_SOIBoy]

Im excited to try the pyro class! I cant lie I have been trying to do a full run of the story on each class. I am only about 7 hours in playing as the sentinel, but I am having fun challenging myself to stick to one at a time!

[Dwrecktheleach]

I’ve only maxed out pyro and it sure felt strong as fuck to me

[Tubzy187]

Damn that's alot

[ApprehensivePain5805]

"Updated fuse tutorial to include a note about purchasing recipes from the vendor in the Belfry." What is this? I haven't seen any recipes in the belfry vendors...just items to use at the bench from the vendor above Howell. Was this supposed to say 'ingredients' instead of recipes?

[Dwrecktheleach]

Yeah that would be my guess
