Hello,

regarding Warden/Knight

the elite skill with ID 1490660 provides an additional buff if you click skill ID 1490859 (Heart of the Oak).

The additional buff is the buff ID 1502600 and should let you hit 10 times with offensive spells that ignore the targets defense.

I observed several bugs

- the skill also triggers with white hits

- the skill also triggers with passive hits like "Briar Shield"

- MOST IMPORTANT: The Skill triggers also for other ppls skill! As I saw only for pdps players. We did IDK and had 1 scout/druid in group and he snitched my stacks and did way more damage and ignored the defense of the mobs. We tested it several times in the instance and always as I clicked "Heart of the Oak" than the scouts dmg boosted very much and I observed loosing my buff without doing anything

He'll make a joke.

You go k/wl and then the nerf scout S/D! xD

what you mean?

The bug is existent and can be proven.

Btw: S/D is not really a nerf just change dmg for attack speed and all scouts gets a push up to 15% -> what else you want? :O

about K/Wl

Indeed, using plate gear is nothing better than chain gear. This is unfair to players with plate gear. even though I'm a chain gear player. More changes are needed to put the plate gear to better use in this class.

Totally agree. Cloth has a tank class with Champ/Bard and chain has several tank options everyone knows (that's why some ppl already run with chain tanks in DC).

Plate missing one viable dps and btw the aggro is still to high in plate gear (you have around 80-90% aggro left with plate and recon rune, but some skills are not affected by the change of generating least aggro. My suggestion is to remove aggro multiplier of all skills if shield of darkness is active or remove it in general for this class. Furthermore maybe double the affect of -aggro buffs, that you don't have 90% aggro with a recon 13 xD

Btw the parry rate on DC gear is lower than on rofl. This means with newer sets with lower parry rate the dmg will decrease in plate. Should also be in mind for this class.

Druid/WL

I also want to mention again, that the d/WL should get increased attack based on bonus heal or base wisdom. Right now you have in full heal gear fullbuffed around 1kk attack and that's not really viable.

Quote from Elipso

Hi ive been testing katana whit rogue side and its rly not nice to play...

For first its hard to get bleeds and perfect slice to proc (double hit) and second thing it should give on first hit right away 1 stack and to count it as double proc..

This meta is one shoting everything even in Dark Core ini and it would be good if we could stack faster bufs and debufs...

Also GrandMaster ID 1502730 is rly hard to get if you are in mobs fight since you change target all the time and its like imposible to have it all the time up that also should be good to be changed so you can proc it on difrent targets not only on one also it should be good if you could refresh this buff whit every other perfect slice (Flawless hit)

This way its waste of dias and tiers to make Katana for rogues since dmg is allmost same as duo daggers..

Cao Elipso pls consider these changes about rouges

Display More

If perfect slice is to easy to use, daggers would be useless weapons just saying.

In the way how it works now, you have with katana 1 less item with stats, but if you are able to get perfect slices buffs, you benefit from your skills and do more dmg with katana.

Quote from Pacino

Mine from two days ago was censored by nervous "Sir Authorities". HA!

Well, whatever, though.

Main subject. As one might expect, some people are aware of this, but just in case, I publicize.

Re-merging isn't possible unless the merged potion disappears after 24 hours.

In other words, merge is once every 24 hours.

This isn't possible until at least 24 hours have passed.

By the way, there is no point to manually Delete a merged potion.

I repeat, It's not possible to merge again until at least 24 hours have elapsed.

(I don't know if "after resetting housemaid fatigue" would definitely and reliably enable a retry. I would never use that feature in the first place.

Why should I give a 1M to those incompetent housekeepers? Ha!）

In other words, it is the same pattern as the "24-hour bug" immediately after the WoF "a change for the worse.".

Can't be retried until "at least" 24 hours have elapsed.

As I, and someone else, mentioned before, it could really just be unstable functionality. But, alas, it does not seem to be the case. Objectively speaking.

They guys're making the same mistakes. No progress.

This might be bad. This is really not good in a way.

Yes, this system like it is now is the opposite of QoL and only a bad feature for all players

For me not today again...

yesterday evening yes (as you can see)... seems that it depends on hour, day, daylight and maybe star constellation

Quote from Zyrex

Fortunately you can delete all the useless potions with the inventory bin..

has nothing to do with the problem o.o

just for example... totally shit solution

ok nvm... that changed it AGAIN to the stupid way... omg

wth are you doing with it? change it back to the good way all ppl like and not bag wasting shit -.-

soon everyone is raging hard i think.... im not far away

It seems it is fixed again that it is working like 2 days ago

Quote from Brontes

Greetings,

please keep in mind that the Arcane Chamber of Sathkur (hard) is supposed to be a catch up instance, designed to reduce the grind for new or returning players to get back into the game over time. The instance is meant to supplement nostalgia content, not replace it.

Smaller parties will get significantly lower amounts of loot. While you can't take one of your own characters to boost your parties haul, it is highly recommended to try and fill the empty spaces with other players, as additional players aren't taking away any of your loot (except for cards, which are decently common).

We've not added RNG to the loot per se, we simply moved the RNG portion of what is gotten to a seperate step, instead of direct drops. While these drops aren't guaranteed, a player can expect to see at least one specialty material per 250 coins thrown into the well.

It is relatively rare that none of these materials are obtained, more commonly players will gain one or more materials.

Hooroo,

Brontes.

Ok if LL got 249 coins whit 14 ppl , that should mean that whit 15 ppl raid will get over 250 coins and that should mean that all 15 ppl whill get atleast one rare drop bcs 250+ coins droped in wishing well , is that case ?

Display More

No, bcs it is rng:

While these drops aren't guaranteed, a player can expect to see at least one specialty material per 250 coins thrown into the well.

Means in short: rng. Maybe you are lucky or not

Rng in general for a group (random loot Like in rofl) is OK. But rng player based is shit af, bcs there are always ppl with infinite luck and the other ones. This makes the player themself feeling bad instead of splitting the bad feelings to all players of a raid.

Haha. All of our guild got 249 coins. Only 3 afaik got something usefull like splinter of form. Rest of players only got crap.

And this is still rng per se, regardless of how you specify it. And as we can see 3/14 got usefull things from 249 coins...

Quote from Ikaria

We believe this will solve the issue with housekeepers for everyone. The issue of wasting bag space unnecessarily will be removed as well as limiting abuse of restacking potions infinitely.

Only if getting housemaid potions is not random and can be choosen. If the player still is unlucky and don't get the needed potion or only 1 time? Still not a good solution. It seems that you want to force ppl to reset housemaids and who is most affected... Tanks. All other classes don't have problem with that solution but the amount of random items for tanks if you want the aggro potion is incredibly high and get instantly removed bcs they are useless...

So in summary, nothing will change in my opinion

Quote from Ikaria

Hello

It was changed with recent patch to only restack for first exchanges of the day or after resetting housemaid fatigue (until zone change) to prevent abuse of infinite restacking potions. Other time limited items are still blocked the same as before.

Greetings

It is working again like the first change.. it cannot be stacked (even not on first new potion on a day)...... and how should ppl stack new potions, if they have zero in bag? having multiple places wasted bcs of this is not a pleasent feature.

Nobody knows why you change it again this way. What was the problem like it was yesterday? It was a perfect solution for housemaid potions... now it is very uncomfortable again in a way, I rather dont use any housemaids anymore

Hi,

regarding K/WL

tested now (next to idk) also in rofl against a P/W xD (only rofl gear + dc weapon) and a mage/rogue.

K/WL plate gear was highest and newly statted, while gear from the others don't even have titan or DC stats.

Overall I had less than 50% of P/W and M/R. -> Knight/WL plate fairly needs a slight buff.

-> Bcs the class have no spammable non GCD skill, I suggest to increase values of Unhole Strike to 650-700% and increase the buff of skill ID 1490836 or Skill ID 1490508 a little bit

-> or buff a little bit the conversion from parry to attack/speed

Greetings

P.S. Furthermore the origin tank has rage quitted bcs of the aggro of K/WL

It's a tank. Holy protection increase casters aggro while reducing others

How and where this class can show itself ?

What?

It can tank every content. Only problem is the class don't have an extra AoE like all other knights.

Quote from Denis987

Do you have plan about Knight/Priest ? He not heal, because need wisdom and heal points. He not tank, because i not see something interesting for tanking (may be someone correct me). He may be a supp, because holy protection is good skill, but not for tank (if you not want to lose aggro). How to play on him ?)

Quote from xLutinex

Hi,

regarding K/WL

The class seems "ok". In terms of aggro it is the hell. doing still way too much aggro in single target that any tank can hold it. I would suggest to remove the aggro modifiers from the skills, while "Shield of Darkness" is active.

Furthermore I think that the attack speed cap from parry rate should be increased from 20 to 25%. In terms of damage, the class does not deal good single target (I think it's one of the worst single target dmg) but it does ok AOE dmg.

tested with t17 rofl 2h hammer and full new statted plate gear.

My bad with this "cap" I mentioned. there is no cap, it is just slow in refreshing^^

But single target damage (sustain and burst) is still the worst I saw from all dps Maybe there could be a little buff and then this class is fine imho

Pleased think about it Ikaria , there are so many random things in game and now also with housemaid items? Let them stack and all fine. Think about ppl needing some specific potions from housemaid and you get it only 1 time from 5 housemaids.... Yes I still had this. This little things will players let them think about the game whether to play or not...

I understand 1) because Warp Charge gives more atkspeed than castspeed does.

warp charge gives also 10% mdmg FYI

Quote from Madox

D/WL was not for healer gear. It was first designed as mdps with full Int. Wisdom thing came later and it never worked in endgame, it was more of a "I can do minigames and little inis with healer gear". So don't forget endgame mdps with Int should still be viable and for what I saw lately, isn't good.

Identity of classes can change. S/M was also designed only for pdps earlier... and now? mdps version is stronger

After they introduced the wis/sta conversion to int, I am right sure it was designed for healers and not for mdps, bcs it makes more sense.

@devs: can you clarify this question?

After reading all planned changes I got something in my mind.

D/WL was designed for healers to play DPS (if you have conversion of wis/sta active). Now we know you can increase attack based on other base values.

For healers it would probably a good change to have an increased attack based on base bonus heal and (to avoid abusing unintended heal gear with full int/int) get a huge attack decrement if base wisdom is lower than base stamina or int. In this case maybe the class could be used really as dps with heal gear. Right now I only see it in mdps Gear.

Don't know if healers really need such change, but I think it would be a good idea.

Quote from Denis987

Quote from xLutinex

I furthermore thought about it and reducing the wisdom and/or heal bonus by a fix amount in new instances like DC and new ones would solve that problem (instead of reducing percentage amount). Just an example (I didnt calculated or tested) reducing for all healer classes in DC the wisdom by 60k and bonus heal by 20k. This would reduce the heal amount from 4-8kk on single target and 300-500k heal over time effects to maybe 3-5kk on single target and 200-350k heal over time effects.

The example values are still to high for healing tbh but that should be an example, how this problem can be solved without affecting lower instances and lower geared ppl in lower instances

Wont solve the problem. May be im not understood something or bad translate, so:

1) Fix amount its, for example, 200k wisdom, right? I cant do more wisdom that 200k, yes? Then why i should increase wisdom up to ~350k, if 200k limit for DC?

2) You said reducing wisdom and heal bonus, what about with buffs (hp/atk/wis) ?

3) 300k heal over time, balanced ? ~100k max balance.

4) This game always had one problem: fat potato tank - good; strong dps - nice; supports with good hands - great; healer with high heal (w/o bufs, just high heal) - merde (very sorry for this bad word). How will u solve this ?

5) I mean, what if u want nerf heal, need nerf everywere, not only DC, option with warden's pets not enought.
