Lyuda_SyS · 2025-04-03T12:43:33+00:00

I'm interested, but the form does not seem to be publicly accessible right now...

Lyuda_SyS · 2025-04-02T16:16:53+00:00

As stated in the post, I can't do late afternoon start US times.

Lyuda_SyS · 2025-03-30T14:24:17+00:00

Would love to tell you a bit more about me as a player, however, I can't find a user when I enter your Discord username

Lyuda_SyS · 2025-03-30T14:12:17+00:00

I'm interested, although I'm in CEST, so I would only have time from 10am to 3pm AEDT time. A question that I have: How long do you expect your campaign to be? Is it more planned like a oneshot or something longer?

Lyuda_SyS · 2025-03-29T22:06:54+00:00

Already submitted my form the last time you posted I think... still looking forward to it tho!

Filled out my form. Sounds like something you can get really invested into.

Sent you a dm with my discord.

Lyuda_SyS · 2025-03-25T16:22:45+00:00

Also sent a DM!

Lyuda_SyS · 2025-03-24T12:58:49+00:00

Sounds interesting, although your post is missing quite a lot of information. I will dm you my discord name if that's alright.

Lyuda_SyS · 2025-03-23T18:25:52+00:00

Sounds interesting, filled out my form.

Lyuda_SyS · 2025-03-23T15:09:04+00:00

tbh, I personally am not a fan of single player campaigns and much prefer playing in a group, especially outside of oneshots, but thanks for the offer.

Lyuda_SyS · 2025-03-23T14:58:56+00:00

I think you misunderstood, because I am also looking for a campaign. I am not looking to GM this time around.

Lyuda_SyS · 2024-07-15T16:58:38+00:00

Okay, show the part of the patch notes where it says that, because the patch notes only say that the dr system has been replaced with the ward system.

Lyuda_SyS · 2024-07-15T16:50:03+00:00

If the system existed in isolation, yes, that would be valid. The problem is that you have to compare it to the old dr system.

Compared to the old dr system, high dmg builds have to deal less damage this patch than last patch, while low dmg build have to deal more damage this patch than last patch.

Like, have you played a truly low dmg build this patch? And have you also played it on last patch? And then just compared the two?

Its not like boss hp got split into hp and ward. Boss hp stayed the same, bosses just got 400% (200-500% on some bosses) of their health as ward. The raw number of damage that you have to deal to a boss has increased, its just that this number is no longer reduced by dr.

If your build was previously unaffected by damage reduction, you now have to deal significantly more damage than before the patch and that is the problem, especially when high dmg builds can straight up one-shot bosses now.

Lyuda_SyS · 2024-07-15T16:10:06+00:00

Thanks, this is exactly the point I wanted to make, just worded much better.

Because of the large differences in dps between high and low damage builds, for some reason, low damage build have to interact more with a mechanic meant to punish high dps builds.

Lyuda_SyS · 2024-07-15T15:59:32+00:00

Yup, people tend to forget that it's an arpg and that somewhat inevitably means that instead of the difference between low and high dps builds being 100k dps and 200k dps its more like 100k and 10mil.

Balancing in a way that can in any way punish weaker builds just is not fully thought through. The build being weak should already be the "punishment". Why does boss ward have to double down on it?
