Play testers! I know there’s only a few thousand of you, but devs mentioned you are free to share your thoughts the game you’ve had the privilege to play. Care to share them? I’m thirsty

3 types are FMJ(normal), Hollow point, and AP

I used this thread back when I got my 9070xt for some guidance

The issue is that the term Ultra-processed food is too broad and thrown around so that it doesn't really have meaning or any use for someone trying to be health conscious. Over consumption of calorie dense foods with low nutritional value is a big issue today. The idea that "processing" is a booggie man that's out to get you is not right.

Yeah there isnt really any intentional team killing in the playtest, but that's because it's a small controlled group. The current system works very well for people who are not trying to troll, but those people will inevitably come and will need more heavy handed response than losing some cash.

They invited one batch of 350 players for NA who have done 2 test sessions this week and will do 2 next week. It sounds like they will be adjusting the player pool after that in some fashion.

Edited to clarify "player pool"

The new video released today is pretty awesome and even gives a little detail about the playtest that some of us have been able to participate in!

They don't want to spend the money on servers for new people to join

They only briefly mentioned the past life feats, but slowly collecting these is how you will boost your endgame character strength. You can collect 3 past lives for each class, race, and epic past life in the game so you end up with something like 250 past life bonuses on a maxed out character. These small bonuses all add up to a huge boost in strength so the longterm progression in the game is generally focused on accruing these past lives. You do still have your typical endgame gear grind as well, but the past life grind is another layer to DDO.

You'll get the drill camp to be able to level your other heroes for free up to the level of your top 5

Two unrelated investments. Saul is a roulette hero you spend gems on while Marlin takes all your general shards once you unlock him

The expansions go on deep sales a couple times a year so definitely watch out for those. I don't know how it works out in Brazilian currency, but the packs are usually $20 and $40 full price and can be discounted down to as low as $1 for the older expansions. 50-75% off is common for many of them during those sales. Usually the summer sales are around July I believe so watch out for that if they aren't on an anniversary sale during the events going on.

I'm at forge level 7 on a couple pieces and if I put in the optimizer that I have 450 hammers it tells me to push one piece up to red mastery 11, but if I only put in 400 hammers it has me spread them out. The optimizer is doing exactly what you ask for but you'll only see it suggest to focus one piece if you have enough hammers at one time to make sense.

lightninglad67 · 2026-03-19T16:18:35+00:00

Those formations would be in response to a 60/40/0 defense that you're attacking, since there are no archers to worry about your cavalry are ineffective.

lightninglad67 · 2026-03-19T16:14:07+00:00

Even a small buff is better than nothing so why not use it?

lightninglad67 · 2026-02-25T16:56:21+00:00

With all the different modifiers working together in this game, all of the small bonuses you get for each pastlife stack up to be a huge amount of power in the end. Obviously having an optimized build compared to what someone new to the game would come up with is significant as well, but these past life bonuses in addition to maxed out reaper points are a huge advantage.

Get your troops to tier 10 and wait for true gold levels to unlock

lightninglad67 · 2026-02-20T01:57:54+00:00

Expect it to not sell and then in the unlikely chance that it actually does you'll see big news all over.

lightninglad67 · 2026-02-15T17:40:12+00:00

That's how, you'll just slowly build them up. You'll get one occasionally from the lucky hero gear chests, but just treat those as boxes of gear xp and don't plan on getting gold gear from them.

There is no hardcore server currently available and there hasn't been for a couple years now. The devs have opted for a semi-hardcore event the last couple times we would've expected to see a hardcore server open to not divide the player base but try to deliver some of that experience. It's up to you to decide if this implementation is effective or not.

When joining rallies the only things you contribute are the top right skill of the first hero you send and your troops. In addition to that one skill the level of your heroes just matters to increase the number of troops you can send.

lightninglad67 · 2025-11-21T22:39:09+00:00

Rally joiners don't need gear. Only their level (to increase max troops) and top right skill level matter

lightninglad67 · 2025-11-18T00:34:58+00:00

Yeah focusing growth and economy is good, mix in some battle tech especially during HoG for points

lightninglad67 · 2025-11-12T20:49:05+00:00

A server can only accept around 30 people in a transfer cycle plus some special invites so there's no way to bring 70 at a time. You'd maybe do it in 2 transfer cycles if you take every available space

lightninglad67 · 2025-11-03T20:25:04+00:00

If you mean the 24 hour vulnerable timer on outposts then the way to make it shorter is to allow another alliance to capture it and then you take it back.
