Hello,
I’d like to report a balance concern regarding a specific area in the Talaghan region — particularly at coordinates [67.9, 47.5].
🧟♂️ Mobs Present:
139389 – Soul-Eating Captain
139434 – Dark Shadow Zombie
These enemies cast a DoT effect named “Decay” (
625686
), which lasts for 25 seconds and deals ~105,000 damage per second. This is an extremely deadly poison, especially for early or mid-level players.🧪 My Experience:
When I first started the game, I died here many times and nearly quit.
Now, returning for a quest (at a much higher level), I still almost died.
My survival depended on
501617 – Phoenix Devastation
triggering and using1250809 – Dried Bass
for sustain.This shows that even with strong gear and buffs, surviving this poison is difficult — which makes it nearly impossible for new players to get past this zone.
💬 Suggestion:
Please consider reviewing this specific encounter:
Reduce the damage or duration of the Decay effect in early zones
Or introduce a warning/teaching mechanic to help players understand how to counter it (e.g. via food, purification skills, or special NPCs)
This will help retain new players and provide a fairer experience early in the game.
Thanks.
Talaghan isnt meant to me runned through without endgame gear as far as i know and also is designed to be hard content, i never had issues there O.o ( not an area newbies without gear should be therefore )
