Classes who can use two gears

Priest/Warrior, Druid/Warrior, Rogue/Warden and Bard/Warden can both use Leather and Chain according to their eliteskills.

Bard/Warden is equally viable in Chain and in Leather, because it gets good atk from dex.

Druid/Warrior and Priest/Warrior are much better in chain. Also Rogue/Warden is much better in Leather.

Suggestions:

1) Increase atkscaling from dex for Druid/Warrior. For 494017 also add +2.12 Dex Healing from Whitehit or make it whatever stat is highest you use that for Healing

2) Increase atkscaling from dex for Priest/Warrior

3) Increase atkscaling from str for Rogue/Warden

Champion/Mage

• Changed Elemental Rampage to increase 1-H Hammer damage by 30% instead.

Elemental Rampage is a 30 second buff with 90 second cooldown. Only during this buff 1h Hammer is better than 2h Hammer.

Maybe it makes more sense to attach the 1h Hammer bonus passively, for example on 70 Elite.

Bard/Warrior

• Changed War Cry to increase physical damage by 8% additionally.

This is good but will not fix the issue of very weak sustaindmg.

To fix this I suggest to make War Cry passive. This would not increase burstdmg, but rather allows for a slightly more acceptable sustaindmg.

Knight/Warlock

• Changed Shield of Darkness to convert 100% of stamina and dexterity into strength additionally while decreasing received damage by 75% and reducing physical attack by 10%.

I would suggest a -95% aggrobuff for this skill. This would allow the class to change to dpsmode and have low enough aggro. This is also to prevent Tanking Ability as Dps.

The parryrate I would convert to physical damage in a 1:2 ratio. This would also encourage a unique way of buffing up where you need to maximize parryrate for max dmg and aligns with the new skills idenity.

When last Boss gets his HP-Shield under 10% HP, you do 0 dmg as Champ because absorbed Whitehits do not trigger Chain Drive. No Rune Impulse no dmg. Also Warden Pets die too easily. I assume same applies for Mage/Scout.

Hello,

upong using the fruit which deletes your secondary class you are supposed to forget all information so you can form it again as to your liking:

Gyazo

gyazo.com

However, after deleting my Bard my classes with Bard as secondary class still have their elite!

Even for Bard as primary class, after becoming level 15 I automatically got the 15 Elite!

Please make the fruit truly forget everything related to your secondary class. If not possible, please fix description.

Thank you,

Blackkid

Cannot confirm.

Maybe you did not actually have 5 PSI because you changed Zones.

Warden/Warrior

According to the description and Combat-Protocol, Doppelschlag (494001) is based on earth elemental damage, but does not get boosted by % elemental damage buffs.

Priest/Warrior

Burst potential of this class is very weak, while sustain is acceptable.

1) Can Berserk be further boosted?

2) Chain of Lights cancels if you move. This is tough to use as melee. Can it be changed to be not cancelled upon moving?

Bard/Warrior

Sustain damage is very weak of this class, while burst is below average.

1) Can one of the many buffs it has be changed into a passive?

Champion/Warrior

Slash (498583) currently gets a +x2 Sta damageboost regardless of form.

1) Can the boost be changed to +x2 Str or +x2 Sta based on the current form?

2) If there is any intention to make Champion/Warrior a viable dps-class, please remove the GCD of Slash.

Champion/Scout

This class is a worse Champion/Warlock in every situation and needs a graded Gun.

1) Can this class get a skill like Autoshot from Scout which works like a normal Whitehit and thus triggers Chain Drive, Shock Drive, recovers rage etc.? This would not boost the damage, but would make this class purely ranged.

Champion/Mage

This class burst potential is acceptable in singletarget and very good in Aoe. But sustain damage is extremly low.

1) Can one of the many buffs this class has be changed into a passive buff to fix the weak sustain damage?

Champion/Rogue

This class can trigger Chaindrive very fast because it utilizes two weapons. Shadow Impulse is also a non-GCD skill and even ignores GCD from other skills with Hesitant Touch. However, this forces the player to spam dps-Macro more than any other class in this game and is thus very unpleasant to play. In addition to this, the damagepotential is slightly lower than many other classes so there is no reason to "try hard" if there is no reward. In addition, you have to build two graded 1h Hammers, which you do not need for any other Chain-DPS.

1) Keep original cooldown of Shadow Impulse (3 seconds) even after Chain Drive, but increase Shadow Impulse damage by x3.

Thank you,

Blackkid

What is there to fix with Katana? The reason it is stronger is because it has 2.7 Speed.

+Damage from gear, seteffect, cenedril etc. is always more valuable with a faster weapon.

Imagine two weapons:

Weapon A has 1000dmg with 10 sec. (Dps=100)

Weapon B has 100 dmg with 1 sec. (Dps=100)

Now assume +100 dmg from Cenedril.

Player with weapon A now has 1100 dmg and thus 110 dps.

Player with weapon B now has 200 dmg and thus 200 dps.

Also Katana has more %dmg on Weapon Mastery. Both of this results in Katana being stronger even though dpsvalue is lower than for example 2h Axe.

But I understand it would be nice to know if Katana Updates are coming. Nobody wants to build Katana for Warrior and it getting nerfed to garbage a day later.

Itnal Lager with customizable buff setup.

Player will be able to decide e.g. via Extrabuttons (like Old Bag quest) which buffs he wants.

Otherworldly Whisper, Surge, Warp Charge, Storm Assault, Fire Training, Musical Shot and other popular buffs.

If possible, player can manually set defense, critresist and level of target or he will be able to spawn any boss in this game with a debufflist of choice. Only player can see boss if too many bosses are a concern.

Goal: Player can test and optimize classchoice and new people don't have to wonder "Why my Warden do 0 dmg in Itnal Lager" etc

Can also potentially be used to balance classes as secondary goal.

Warriorsuggestions:

Warrior/Druid:

Make him slightly weaker in singletarget and aoe. There is a reason why suddenly 80% of chainplayers play this class and it is starting to be annoying.

Warrior/Warlock and Warrior/Champ:

Slightly buff them like 5% maybe.

Warrior/Warden:

Please just give him that 20% pdmgbuff (1500764) as a 900 second buff so he does not have to waste two global cooldowns for this.

Warrior/Priest:

Add additional hit on 493249 also for aoeskills and reduce ragecost per second from 3 to 2. Also make his Berserkbuff for group stronger. This is to encourage to have a real Warrior/Priest inside instance, instead of just using buffalt.

Warrior/Rogue:

Make 492962 a passive or a 15min buff for QoL.

Thank you,

Blackkid

I am sure that Warlocks will be very competitive now with the new travel delay updates, extra 1 PSI every 3 seconds and Ruthless Judgement giving Mdmg 100% of the time. Also one of its Aoes does not trigger GCD anymore.

Additionally it is planned that you won't lose PSI outside combat in Willplayerblade/Construct.

I have seen some Warlocks in Rofl doing very high dmg in singletarget, aoe in burst and sustain situations.

I think we are reaching a state of good balance with all classes.

I like the idea of keeping the nerfs to specific instances, since Wardens seem to be only too strong in Dark Core (high def instance).

However, I also want to mention, that Wardens are very support-dependant. Especially a good Wl/M who does not go afk and places Surge perfectly so that it hits the Warden and his pet goes a long way. A good Surge boosts Petdmg by more than 40%! This is too much.

This is a party from LivingLegends in the highest instance, so we can assume top Wl/M gameplay. To make Wardens less support-dependant which can be used to

1) nerf Wardens and to

2) make Wardens more playable with a shitty Wl/M

I propose to make all Warden Pets scale more with physical dmg instead of physical attack.

Hello again,

since you can trade unlimited Mementos for dias here a speedrun of 85 ini. Without Sigil under 2 minutes. Enjoy

I don't play Dark Core that much but are Wardens really that strong, that all of their pets need a nerf? I thought we were talking about Warden/Rogue which Lutine specifically mentioned doing 20% more dmg than her Rogue/Scout.

Warden/Rogue for example if he gets Surge you have +20% Atk which will boost petdmg by almost 20%. If addionally Surge also hits Pet, it boost the petdmg by 20%. This is a dmgboost of 44% for pet.

Same applies with Tempo, SA or other grouprelated %atkbuffs which can also hit the pet.

This means 2 things:

1) Wardens are extremely dependant on a good Wl/Mage who uses Surge, so that it hits the Warden and the pet.

2) Without a good Surge or Tempbuffer or if your support sucks and clicks SA too late, you as Warden DPS disproportionally get punished for the lack of support.

Assuming optimal support and good timing AND an instance with highdef targets, yes Wardens are very strong, maybe too strong. However, if the support sucks or is semi-afk, the Warden will suffer more than other DPS-Classes.

On another note, the difference between T11 and T14 rings is less than it might seem. This is because %critical dmg is additive, not multiplicative. So just because someone spends x27 diamonds one 1 item does not mean they do best dmg. Maybe their lua, fps, ping, gameplay or the choice of class is not optimal or not specifically tailored to the group and instance in question. Sometimes even a lucky critical hit is all the difference especially as a Scout.

Greetings Blackkid

Warden

• Changed Two-Hand Weapon Mastery to increase Katana damage equally.

1) Wardens cannot wear Katana

2) Warden/Rogue, who can wear Katana, does not get any dmgboost from this skill

Hello again,

another Speedrun, enjoy!

Champion/Warrior

Rune Overload ceases to work at random times mostly after 10 hits, but sometimes after 17 or 19 hits. I have more than enough rage (kept it even at 150+). I was suspecting an aggressive afk-Checker to be the reason. However, even while moving around I was able to reproduce this issue.

Savior of Light (532086):

This title still only enhances focus-recovery, if your primary source of energy is focus. If you play classes for which focus is the secondary source of energy (Champ/Scout, Warden/Bard etc), this title does not enhance focus recovery. Please fix or let us know, that this is intended.

Thank You,

What about a tutorial ini that allows you to pick a classcombination of choice and lvl is adjusted to 80/80. You will also have all elite for that class inside this custom ini. Upon entering it asks if you want solo or 6ppl version. Only starter gear is allowed.

This allows people to test certain tank, heal and dps and allow beginner to develop a deeper understanding of the game.

In this custom ini you or the group decides wich boss to spawn for which you want to practise.

Warlock

It is clear, that Warlocks are pretty weak at the moment. I want to throw some ideas to make Warlocks more interesting. I am not saying to implement ALL of these suggestions. Just maybe 1 or 2 of them:

1) Upon entering Willpower Blade you will summon Pets that will do dmg based on your Psi level. 0 Psi = high dmg. 6 Psi = low dmg. The idea is, if you have high Psi you can use powerful skills so the pet should not do high dmg. Once you leave Willpower Blade, the Pet disappears. This also means, that Warlock/Warden has a permanent Pet. I think this is fine, because Warlock/Warden is extremely weak and with /Warden it kinda makes sense as class identity.

2) Make some skills CPS or even DPS-based. Example: Psychic Arrows or Soul Extrator (lvl 100 ISS)

3) Simply boost Dark Will from 111% to like ~130% and adjust accordingly to performance.

4) Keep the damage the same, but increase utility from Warlocks. For example make Warp Charge a raid buff similar to Warlock/Mage elite. This can make Warlock DPS a viable alternative to the classic Warlock/Mage. This means you have Warp charge and Surge while the rest of the support can be compensated by your dmg.

5) Make Warlock/Knight a class with Plate Gear and give it a skill to convert physical damage and critical hit rate to magical dmg and critical hit rate.

Thank you,

Blackkid

Bard

Stolen Music ISS inflicts both physical and magical dps. However, the prerequisite skill only does magical dmg. This biases magical Bards. Please add a physical component to 1491098.

Bard/Warden

Please make 1491098 usable with 2h Axe. This would counteract the boring rotation and makes Stolen Music ISS usable.

Bard/Warrior

• Reduced War Cry cooldown to 30 seconds from 90.

War Cry now has 60 seconds cooldown, not 30.

Warrior/Priest

• Fixed Barbarian Battle Cry was consuming 1 Rage instead of 3, changed it to stop affecting targets if there is lower than 10 Rage instead of ceasing, fixed it was interrupting some casts.

If you want to play Warrior/Priest as dps, the new rageconsumption is unreasonably high to play this class. This class damage is not high at all, to warrant such costs. However, as pure support the rage-consumption is perfectly fine.

Suggestion: Please add to Barbarian Battle Cry (493249): recover 3-5 rage for each single target offensive skill used.

Thank you,

Blackkid

Champion/Warden

• Changed Kinetic Chop to reduce cooldowns by 1 second instead of 2 if you equip 1-H weapon.

I assume this change is intended to make Champ/Warden equally good with 2h Axe and 1h Axe+Talisman. If that is the case, I like it a lot. I prefer changes like these much more than simple "reduce dmg of skill X by Y %".

Thank you,

Blackkid

Warden/Rogue

According to Elite level 45 (494614) this class is meant to be played with 2x 1h Weapons. However, upon using 493347 it makes more sense to use a 2h Sword, since it increases the damage of 2h weapons by 16.2% for 30 seconds. To minmax you would have to use 2x 1h Axe in offburst and a 2h sword for burstsituations.

Suggestion: Change 493447 for Warden/Rogue to increase overall damage by 16.2%.

Thank you,

Blackkid
