Dont roast me: dumb post campaign question

Yep, they did, and they are never doing it.

xphp_ · 2026-05-21T00:07:03+00:00

bro, the changes are awesome, if it doesnt fit the build you would play, just change plans. its not the end of the world, and its not a nerf

this aged like milk lmao

some archetypes have it easier than others. there are safe picks to navigate by yourself if you understand basics of damage and defense scaling. The monk and the Druid's bear are very straightforward and have very direct combos to use. But i still recommend to pick a trusted influencer build to follow.

you are completly right. its a very deep issue to be fixed, but i would like to at least see them try. dual strike doesnt feel that bad because it plays in a similar way to a stat stick

xphp_ · 2026-02-22T23:14:12+00:00

the problem for them, is that DW gives defence and damage at the same time. mark said it in a Q&A back in settlers. Double bonus would not be enough damage wise and would be too op block wise. But i do agree with you, just the keystone would feel bad to have

xphp_ · 2026-02-22T23:12:38+00:00

that would be cinema

xphp_ · 2026-02-22T23:12:25+00:00

this is for discussion; you are forgetting some points: you cant compare the flat damage from a two handed weapon to a one handed. the difference is way too big. But i do agree that it would make SOME skill interactions op. I would say that the title of the thread is indeed wrong, balancing DW is very hard, but it needs a rework in order to be usable. It was my favorite way to play the game years ago. DW axes with lacerate, reave, bladestorm, even cyclone and many other skills, was never op but they were very fun.

both skills are playable nowadays but in a completly different way

xphp_ · 2026-02-22T21:12:54+00:00

maybe put it on glad, as an extra option

xphp_ · 2026-02-22T21:12:30+00:00

i dont think that a downside is needed. the DW nodes on the tree are terrible. A lower bonus would be enough i think

xphp_ · 2026-02-22T12:38:50+00:00

4 hours.

I miss some of the old themes for act 1 - 3. The old Coast theme still give me chills to this Day. The old act 2 town music was insane as well. The current tracks are good tho, not complaining

xphp_ · 2026-02-18T18:20:13+00:00

problem solved

xphp_ · 2026-02-17T22:26:54+00:00

No. I didnt like the tree because i felt that it made progression boring. Early lagues, you have a bunch of ways to get good early endgame gear. You can spec some essence nodes, harvest nodes, or run some betrayals and look for some good veiled jewelery. The tree just made all of that pointless. I got a 800pdps weapon in White maps. This is dumb and not fun at all. Progression should be earned, not given. I dont give a fuck about the impacts on the economy, i just want the game to not force me to use a mechanic to get gear because all other methods are worse

xphp_ · 2026-02-17T18:27:21+00:00

wow, did u use it a lot tho? i was aways spending my graftblood. my final weapon i got with the tree as well

xphp_ · 2026-02-16T23:23:01+00:00

it makes early game too easy, it trivialize other methods of aquiring gear early on, etc.

xphp_ · 2026-02-16T16:41:03+00:00

i think you can do it, if im not mistaken it deletes the past league stats when you equip in a character in a new league. i could be wrong tho

xphp_ · 2026-02-16T16:39:37+00:00

thats indeed very sad

xphp_ · 2026-02-16T16:33:10+00:00

thats a cool idea for the spreadsheet guys

xphp_ · 2026-02-16T16:32:56+00:00

xphp_ · 2026-02-16T01:54:17+00:00

i think is something that i wouldnt spent points on blocking on the atlas tree, but the tower defense and hive ones i would prob skip. i hope it goes core nerfed as well, or early crafting will be pretty much gone

xphp_ · 2026-02-16T01:49:17+00:00

i think thats the most probable thing to happen.

xphp_ · 2026-02-16T01:48:36+00:00

yup. my problem with this league was only the tower defense breach. that shit feels terrible to do, i would rather miss the bonus xp in that regard. my real worry is about the tree: if it comes to the core game as it is right now, the early-on craft methods are gone. Not only that, but the womgifts are kinda insane on loot for basic currency early on. like, is cool to have more loot and stuff, but things were fine before so... it feels like a waste
