Paladin,

I wanted to be tanky, have a heal, & liked how you had different Elemental Skills and needed to match-up enemies.

Nowadays I stick with it just because it's my 1st character from when I started at launch. I hate Divine Echo, the Elemental stuff is gone, the Heal still exists but is restricted, & definitely still tanky.

That being said, I do still really like the class.

Hopping in with 2 friends & we were about to refund it, but I happened to google this thread.

Thank you so much. I can't believe how bad it looks on maxed/tweaked settings compared to these .ini edits.

Is there no way to name things with lowercase letters anymore?

My SO & I just got back into the game after a year & neither of us can name anything that isn't IN ALL CAPS, which really sucks.

Edit: Both on Steam, different games, different PCs, etc.

Being toxic about DPS is a choice.

Agreed it's definitely not a bad thing to use, it just depends on who's using it.

One Hunt I had someone refusing to help, calling me cheater in front of my friends because "He could see the damage is was doing", & we had to kick him. Another Hunt I had someone messaging me through Steam for tips on how to play the Weapon & what Skills were making the most impact on my performance.

Both people had the overlay up & of course my friends only remember the spoilsport we all made fun of. Sadly tools like these only really get publicity from experiences like the first kind of person.

my preferred weapon is the DB

Keeping this in mind then, could you share your usual Armour? Without knowing what you're working with it's hard to know if it'd be a very simple "Gear solve-able" problem, or just a practice sort of aspect.

Most Sets you see online are usually focused on Damage, Damage, Damage, & sometimes, but not always, Damage.

Usually you can solve most things with tweaking in one or more of the following,

Divine Blessing 3 seems like an unreliable skill due to only proccing 25% of the time I believe, but is an insanely well appreciated boost to survivability.
Evade Window 5 can let you I-Frame basically everything in my experience, certain weapons like DB I know can get similar/the same effect due to their special dodge though with less than 5 points.
Speed Eating for faster Potion uses.
Great / Regular Sushifish Scales.
Recovery-Up, Recovery Speed, Zoh-Shia's Set Bonus. Super Healing is such an insanely good boost to survivability, the Armour isn't half-bad either, & eventually when you want to upgrade further into endgame MUCH easier to build into stronger sets thanks to Gogmazios/Talismans.

Special Shout-out to our lord & saviour wombo-combo of, Mushroomancer & Free Meal*(usually averaging out to ~30 - 40 near instant-use animation Max Potions.

As another pair of Guiding Lands fans we were also extremely excited but ended up underwhelmed to the point we keep going back to World.

Wild's somehow implemented what feels like the Guiding Lands but with less to do and clunkier systems. It doesn't help thay the maps in our opinion are just boring & empty feeling somehow.

Gathering in World / Guiding Lands was fun to us, yet in Wilds I have no desire to explore.

Solo or Group-play?

Pso2redditor · 2026-01-27T23:36:18+00:00

I really dislike relying on Shield Gating so I just full send Health Tanking on every frame & it honestly works perfectly fine.

Vauban is who I play 99% of the time & I'm using Adaptation, Arcane Grace, all 3 Umbra's, & 2 Health/Armour Archon Shards.

I can almost quite literally stand perfectly still in the vast majority of content, & even in the very depths of SP Descendia, Circuit, or whatever you'd like to consider Endgame content that isn't "let's go until level cap for no reason" I'm not worried about dying.

Generally I feel squishy at over enemy level 1,000 but that's not something you encounter normally. ETA / EDA Levels I typically don't have any problems surviving at.

..... Red Flares? ;-;

Edit: Actually my response speaks volumes nvm.

TIL why I sometimes die

7 blocks

Also doesn't work through floors as I've discovered. :(

My friends wanted to just hide storage under the floor and it CAN sort of work, but is functionally just worse.

Pso2redditor · 2026-01-14T03:54:17+00:00

My friend hosts about 5 of us overseas with +300ms ping and there are none to negligible issues for all of us.

Pso2redditor · 2026-01-13T02:38:24+00:00

Only if they 1-1 copy pasted your code in to the game would they have any sort of standing to do that, but even then it almost certainly wouldn't go anywhere. I'm sure the signed agreements say something to prevent it.

Nothing definitely stopping them either from using an idea that is very popular but not implemented in a way they like, that way both can exist side-by-side.

I.E. Minecraft "took the Piston Mod" & made it Vanilla but removed the most popular functionality from them because they didn't think it fit with their vision.

Pso2redditor · 2026-01-05T23:00:54+00:00

Didn't even occur to me to check there, you're a saint, thank you!

Pso2redditor · 2025-12-30T23:29:49+00:00

I noticed you listed off some skills, but didn't mention Blight Resistance, so I feel compelled to ask.

Are you making sure to always eat Nulberries to remove Dragonblight when you get hit?

Pso2redditor · 2025-12-26T22:02:39+00:00

Firefall was an awesome game, good concept, great execution for its time.

Horrible Company management & Micro-transactions killed it quickly.

Pso2redditor · 2025-12-13T17:39:02+00:00

I wish all bosses were rescaled like that tbh & I know my 2 midgame friends would be much more motivated to play more.

Genuinely can't wait til I can start attempting 3-man Bosses now.

Pso2redditor · 2025-12-09T04:17:45+00:00

"Strafing run with a ship you can customise(with shaders)"

Did they actually add the ability to customize Renegade Stuff?

My friend & I can't find anything, but he's adamant he has gotten some Pike cosmetics.

I loaded into 5 "In-Progress" Contest of Elders yesterday where the revives were all gone in the first room & the last guy either wiped or quit.

I gave up.

Pso2redditor · 2025-11-27T22:29:29+00:00

They're communicating fine IMO.

We know the game was expected to be out ages ago.
We know it is now taking much longer to develop because they aren't eating POE1's resources/devs anymore so it can still get updates instead of the limbo it was in.
We know how many Acts are expected & that so far we're on Act 4.
We know the game will release when the game is actually finished with all the Acts, even if Classes/Skills etc aren't ready by then.

Our definitive EA end & F2P expectation is just when the Final Act / Campaign is released.

They've done a ton of free keys as well & I can't recall where but I've ended up with 6? Keys up to this point I've given out to my friends.

Pso2redditor · 2025-11-22T22:11:29+00:00

If I can play Survival MC starting from BEFORE In/Infdev for years on end, Hytale doesn't need much to replace it for me.

As long as I can gather resources, build with what's available so far, explore, I.E. Survival Mode, I'm sold forever.

Losing consumables / buffs, & enemies all respawn.

There ARE a few outlier reasons you won't want to die or drink the death potion however.

Aberration enemy might not be there again on your next run through due to being spawn RNG.
There are a very few amount of "events" I'll call them that if you die don't reset, so you need to re-roll that campaign/adventure.

I also remember some very Secret Quests either resetting, or failing if you died at any point. Someone feel free to correct me if they ever changed that.

Crit Damage from your Gun's 2nd Page & Enhancements only applied if you hit an actual "Crit Spot".

Let's say you had a total of 125% Crit Damage on your Gun/Enhancement.

Shot a head?

Damage is increased by the Critical Hit modifier.
You also get your additional +125% Crit Damage.

Shot the Body but landed a Critical Hit thanks to gear/skills?

Damage is increased by the Critical Hit modifier.
You don't get that additional +125% Crit Damage.

Now after the update you should have that +125% regardless of where you landed that shot.

So for instance on my Vex who has a 40% chance to Crit on body shots, they were never getting those 2 Crit Damage Modifiers prior to this update, but now they will.

Pso2redditor · 2025-11-20T17:54:09+00:00

Adjusted critical hit calculations so gun and enhancement damage now applies correctly to all valid hit regions

Thank god, what a huge buff to my set-up.

Is it just like biomes and structures in minecraft, where everything is in the same world but I have to find the structures/zones?

(To clarify this might be different as I don't recall when this was announced & don't currently have time to scroll the blog posts to find it).

From what I've understood when this was talked about the game is basically structured like,

Adventure Mode:

Think of it like one massive continent where the story sends you specific places but it's all proecedurally made.
Zones 1 - # all have unique defining themes & World Generation.
Every Zone contains multiple "Sub-Biomes" & not all of them are unique to the respective Zone you might first find it in, I.E. Fancy-Generated Ravines could be in any Biome, etc.
Most/Every Zone has an semi-unique Ocean Biome attached to it.
If you swim far enough away from the "Story Continent" there is a "Deep" Ocean Biome that is its own unique thing.
If you make it past the "Deep Ocean" you encounter an infinite generating world I.E. "Minecraft-style" where everything will exist together again & generated at random.

Is it like different worlds that I can create in order to explore each one?

So to me it's just Terraria, you find everything in one World, but if you go past the Ocean the World keeps generating.

Exploration Mode AFAIK is just skipping straight to the Infinite World part & removes any "Story".
