    Change is not about this passive. It is about rate of benefit offhand dps skills getting from katana.


    Greetings

    We don't plan to implement many special gloves for now, it might be changed by the direction of class balance in following week/months.

    Hi, do we need to clear orkham to convert our corrupted tier stones into real mana stones ? Can you just change NPCs to be clickable without clearing instance ? Because sometimes we need to use NPCs immediately and we have no party to clear instance

    NPC doesn't require anything except removal of wall, which doesn't require any mob clear.


    Greetings

    I've had the below issue so many times today only that I started to believe that this is a not fine at this point...

    Can you please change the stats pool so that when you finally get a good green stat you don't get a red stat that directly nerfs it? (nerf is even bigger than the benefit in most cases XD)

    This is happening due to getting relevant stats has same chance for both good and bad stat slot, this chance is adjusted for second slot now.


    Greetings

    Changes are to reduce the sustain while increasing burst. To reduce sustain, another step was taken by reducing DoTs by 45% in orkham.


    Just to clarify, katana is not receiving any change except for Rogue/Mage and Rogue/Warlock. (Rogue/Warrior too but Katana is less likely used on Rogue/Warrior). It is slightly strengthened by this change so katana can be considered as an option for at least few of Rogues, as it initially was intended to, instead of being a pure warrior weapon.

    When will we have final version of creating set items? It changes everyday: No arcadia coins at start, now required. 100 purples mats, then 20, now 20 yellow. First blueprints bound, now not.
    Its so annoying, I cannot create drop rules in guild...

    - Arcadia coins was supposed to be required since beginning and it was even visible in NPC dialogue but it is not reported and it is noticed late by us.

    - Purple materials are changed to orange materials without changing rate because there was no use of orange material, as it was overlooked, you don't need to have any effort to transmute this.

    - We didn't change blueprints as far as I know.


    In my opinion ALL special gloves should give the 4 piece set bonus, else no twohanded class will be able to use them because of aggro issues.

    Special gloves are providing negative aggro already by on their own.


    Greetings

    Gloves are to increase variety of gameplay rather than making wielder stronger. We couldn't find much alteration for plate classes. If you have a creative idea, feel free to share.


    Greetings

    sure:


    1. Version with a threaten effect in half of value maybe (useful for warden and champ tank)
    2. Version for aggro: Effect like the chain gloves. Any offensive spell will trigger an Area of Effect hit with 2 sec cd
    3. Version for aggro: Flat additional aggro bonus

    You are losing 4 piece set effect with special gloves so 3 is not a logical option. I will forward other 2 idea to the person who is responsible with tank balance.


    Greetings

    Announcement: All attributes shuffled on following weapons will have increased values to reduce diversity between dual wielders and single handed classes, we are aware it is not fixing the issue already, but it should reduce the gap between a bit to create lesser to do for us to balance things easier with class balance later.


    local WeaponTypeRates = {

    2-H Sword +50%

    Staff +50%

    2H Axe +50%

    2H Hammer +50%

    Instrument +20%

    Katana +50%

    If you have an item that you decided not-to reshuffle because you liked the attribute and its value but want to update its value with new rates, please contact with me ingame.


    Greetings

    Hi,


    is it intended that there is only 1 plate gloves in orkham without any special effects? All other types have multiple gloves

    Greetings

    Their attributes are identical to Lv99 instance easy mode, we aren't planning to change this.


    Greetings

    It will be corrected.


    Sword:

    AbsorbRate

    MAbsorbRate

    STA

    STA_Rate


    Wand:
    STA
    STA_Rate


    are included now.


    Greetings

    according to Bytes post. Which is in fact not true

    I don't understand what exactly meaning of this is, but in my post I mentioned that relevant stats has higher chance to be applied, which is around 20%.


    Following list includes relevant stats of each weapon type.


    Greetings

    For armors, maximum value is 110% of base value as it is indicated in description of Corruption Crystal. Minimum value is 95% for Corruption Crystal, 90% for Corruption Shard.


    Following list is for weapons, naming is not localized, final list, initially in English, will be published in our wiki and updated in real time with a change log if things gets changed.


    Keep in mind that values are getting affected by tier & durability of the item, whether it is good/bad stat.


    Greetings


    Current change log is

    Increased min/max values of following good stats:
    - DMG

    - DistantDamage

    - ExtraAttack


    Removed following stats from pool entirely:
    - Weapon level ups

    - Quest & regular experience boosts

    - Shield block rate


    Situational changes:
    - Removed possibility of getting special pool stats for 2nd slot

    - If difference between minium and maximum roll of a stat is bigger than 100, there will be a extra chance of 1% to roll it at maximum value.

    Stat list of weapon shuffle is updated, I suggest using shuffler item in Orkham as it has updated lists. For example weapon levels are removed from list entirely, along with around 20~ other irrelevant stats ( i.e.: katana magical damage )

    Armors has chance to get all stats maximized depending on value you have before next roll, until that happens, values will be random.


    Greetings

    I've seen daggers with spear dmg % XD

    I never implied you can't get irrelevant stats, you can. But getting physical damage has higher chance compared to getting spear damage for that particular item. System is not supposed to let you get maximum benefit, as there is more than one beneficial outcome. Theoretically should roll and stop if you think you are at a good spot, talking for weapons. But for amors, eventually they will be maximized on stats and you can't roll anymore on them.


    Also do not forget that reducing randomness will result in making bad stats be really bad. You will probably wan't -15% spear damage as 2nd stat instead of -15% physical damage.

    Hey,


    Quick suggestion for Dynamic Equipment mechanic mainly for corrupted weapons but I would assume the same will apply to gear as well.
    I feel that the RNG in this system is too much, mainly because I got confirmation that for example on 1 weapon you can get the same attribute (Attack speed for instance in the screenshot below) but with different % values. This means even if you get the attribute you want on your weapon you would still need to spend more items in the hope of getting the highest possible value. Knowing how many possible attributes are in the pool, this seems awful and to be frank quite unnecessary.

    Can you please at least add an item to allow players to shuffle the % dynamic value but keep the existing attribute ( Like some stones from the card system do)

    Armors doesn't have random stats, they are just random values of predefined particular attributes, with chance all to be maximized with each roll.


    Also weapons has not-low chance to particularly get attributes related with the weapon type itself rather than fully random pool. So you are more likely to get physical damage stats on a dagger.


    Greetings

    I like the change (obv. i didnt stored any tierstones so far), but i think its a huge barrier for new players. They cant just farm with low gear some stones and sell them, because they have to do orkham first... Maybe you guys should overthink this type of the changes.

    You can still sell them before converting to real tier stones, converting costs nothing so their value is same as a real one.


    Greetings

    Devaluation is inevitable in long term. As big devaluation occured when new transmutor addons appeared in 2020 too, for example.


    Minimum level of farmable tier stones was increasing in past too eventhough its once in a very long time, but eventually happens. However, Arcane Forge doesn't have a serverwide market as it is locked behind the finishing entire secret questline of Orkham, so devaluation won't happen immediately unlike previous base tier increments in game (previously lv98~ to get access to constant source of Tier 6s).


    Greetings

    It will be adjusted for next patch.
