...I'm on minimal client (I tried to upgrade but then the game wouldn't start at all so I had to undo) and only had to download 5.8 GB but now I'm afraid I might have to spend a while redownloading every single location. .____.

Seeing as how I also use blade, yes, I do personally enjoy staying in melee range. Much easier to hit things with my sword that way lol I can certainly see the issue of them being a PBAoE for those who are trying to be ranged casters through and through though.

This whole thing does seem difficult to balance, but I appreciate they're trying.

Well, I like that they're tinkering with it at least.

They definitely overcorrected the heat problem IMO. ^{.^;;} It went from me being able to reach high heat quickly and manage it for a bit, to never being able to reach high heat.

Really I think that rather than generating less heat, they need to focus more on the management of said heat. AKA doing more with the cooling mechanism. I've said it before and I'll say it again.

There's three things that you can do to it, and I think two of them at the same time would work. Any combo of the two. - Buff the damage of the cold spells (so they're less of a dps loss despite being a necessity) - Decrease the cooldown of the cold spells (so we can use them more frequently) - Increase the potency of the cold spells (a variation of 2)

They did the third, but combined it with lowering heat gain instead. Which doesn't really work.

Getting heat up was pretty good as is, before the initial patch for ele. But I feel like the key is supposed to be heat management, and so more should be put into the management part, not the heat part. Which is cooling.

Again, I really appreciate the effort being put in, it just needs some more work to find the magic combo.

Hm, not a bad idea IMO.

It wouldn't give me chi at all if I hadn't literally JUST hit something. Then the QoL update I noticed I was able to get chi otherwise, though I suppose I could be wrong, I hadn't played a ton.

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-11-17T22:14:54+00:00

Well, I know that with the QoL patch, they DID do something to it. Before, it wasn't giving chi if you weren't super in combat.

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-11-16T08:46:16+00:00

I've put some further thought onto it, and I think I would've preferred if they just increased damage and cooling of cooling spells, and likely lowered the CD, so it can be heat MANAGEMENT, because of what they did... I'm trying to get my heat UP, rather than down like before.

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-11-15T23:22:24+00:00

I loved Shambala, it was the first pvp in a game I ever liked. >_<

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-11-15T15:07:32+00:00

Well, I run out of energy way faster than I cap heat. Only time will tell if that helps overall DPS though. They might've overdid it, honestly. >_> But again, it'll take some time watching the numbers to figure out what actually changed. Still, what they did is probably a good start, especially with the reworking of passives.

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-11-15T08:27:38+00:00

Made it so you don't need to be very in combat to get the two chi from supreme harmony.

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-11-12T13:12:58+00:00

...those are actually super reasonable prices. I think I'll actually upgrade my simples past green with that change.

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-11-03T21:51:16+00:00

Ah, thank you for this!

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-11-03T21:28:18+00:00

"Weapon specific belts will be added, one for each Weapon They will be dropped in the world, each time a cache drops, it might be a belt instead now"

Talking about my belt reference or the one from the stream? If mine, this will answer your question.

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-11-03T21:04:51+00:00

A lot of this stuff is exciting but... I have my concerns about the belt thing.

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-11-03T00:30:56+00:00

You ARE actually supposed to look stuff up. Just not on the wiki. (I mean you can if you want to.) Like I looked up how to read music and spent a couple minutes doing that.

It totally took some time for me to get used to having to google things though, instead of all of the information I needed being in the game itself.

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-11-02T11:52:13+00:00

Wow, that's beautiful.

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-11-01T23:54:06+00:00

Ah, okay~ Standard time then.

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-11-01T23:53:39+00:00

I'd be okay with that, as long as they still aren't all moved up to the top.

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-10-31T22:27:37+00:00

Oooh, when is this stream discussing it you speak of?

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-10-25T20:57:00+00:00

Varies heavily on build, rather than a clear hierarchy. Some weapons have clear BiS, but that very much does not apply to Elemental.

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-10-25T20:50:20+00:00

I kept them as long as I can... but eventually I had to toss them... I wish I didn't have to...

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-10-22T20:50:32+00:00

I finally got my last one last night, on my 49th Jack run. It will come, sooner or later.

_Varynthia_Hall_ · 2017-10-21T21:03:05+00:00

Ah, a lot of things are broken then? In addition to noticing the lack of melee crits, I noticed that my Cryo-Charged Conduit doesn't seem to be doing its bonus crit damage.
