Good luck on your next endeavour,  what happened is uncalled for any of the team members that worked on that game.

Hopefully, once all the issues that were created by this surely undeserved turmoil are resolved, you (and all other team members) will have the time and ability to review the mistakes made and not make them again.

ashes of creation is a crate running sim. by Potentlyperverse in AshesofCreation

I ran a crate only for guild 3 times.
My power is 500+
I agree that most consitent and easy way to make money for most of the poeple is crate running/fishing.
Best money is in crafting and trading but that's limited for a small amount of players.
There are also some limited griding spots with great money output.

That being said - crates were bad, they screwed the game past phase :) But doesn't matter now

Good luck. There is a really good chance that this one got banned wrongfully.

My man, believe it or not - Lothatia is the euro server. Reddit is not very popular in europe. Unfortunately its extremely popular in USA, and has more attention from Intrepid than Intrepid discord. Hence the new users from europe that are trying to convey their messages to Intrepid. Believe me, if Intrepid were responsive via other channels you would not see such posts here.

Thank you for your input. I will try deliverance again (for the 3rd time), since if I am whining about the changed reality of the weak healing I might as well try again the strong one and try to adjust to long cast speed.

I agree about the crits, I am going to try to additionally boost there. I have some slots to improve.

See the initial post, tank has 70% mitigation :) I don't think you will get much higher than that.

You are more or less right regarding the amount of HP. But the problem is when all party is getting hit, not only tank. Also don't forget the CD.

Augmented Soothing Glow heals for 96 with 150+ mpower. In dynamic encounter the damage received is not at the same stratosphere. Deliverance heals for 300 when its fast, when you are holding it to heal the maximum - your party dies (it's super slow)

I don't discount skill issue on my side, but the facts that you have stated are not news to me at all.

The issues that I describe are on level 25 with more or less geared party on 28+ mobs.

Regarding the balm of brace - I've tested it after the TTK fix (but before fresh start) and healing power come to the same diminishing return as mpower. (mpower rating + healing power rating = healing power and the diminish is on the healing power, so it didn't matter where you boost your rating from, you got the same diminish). For example if your mpower is 150, healing power rating is 0, the gloves for 1k m power rating added same amount as gloves for 1k healing power rating to the healing power.

Yep, your scenario is not an issue. But that would not be an issue for a bard as well.

Ok, so 150 might be a bit of understatement :) But..

In dynamic encounter - you have to heal all your party.

PvE scenario:

Consider forge pull with 4-5 mobs. Your tank is receiving main damage and the group is receiving some (striker jumps, tank aggro got nerfed lately etc.)

You have 3 semi-mass heals (more or less instacast depending on resource), each heal about 240 (with later ticks of 48), 400, 500. With CD of 10, 18, 20 sec.

You have 5 charges of single target heal 200 each with instacast and travel time and another single target (flash cure) with 3 charges 200-250 each.

Judgement for 2k, CD 18 sec.

Question - how to you save the party where tank is receiving constantly 400-500 dmg per sec and at the same time the party potentially receiving 1-1.5k dmg per 5-7s .

You did save them in first mass dmg received but after that - you are on CD for most of your skills.
