#I think lowering the idle stone overcharge is bad for gameplay , its the thing endgame relies on

Its gonna kill endgame or a the very least cut any progress by 50%

civic crane
#

30%

#

and also... yeah. duh.
it was hilariously broken

fallen plover
#

Yeah but you get the profit of it when the game is almost done anyway

civic crane
#

well now the upgrade is an almost 2x buff instead of 10x
and the other upgrades now each double souls instead of +20%, +15%, and +50%
(which the players gradually pick up as they play the game)

fallen plover
#

I postponed getting the 20m fire kills and now it gonna take 5x the time 😭

civic crane
#

something like that ||5.5x||

#

good thing you have staves to make it faster, huh?

#

or... don't worry about it so much. You can see it's +10% CpS

broken tide
#

all I want is enemy kills to remain the same

#

I m with marcel on that one , i was good , it was good for the last 4 years i played, and now i m thinking that its gonna be enough to make me uninterested in the game

#

it was op, with that i agree. but you cant just nerf it to hell without giving some alternative.

#

Is the alternative not the souls buffs that were given?

#

I love this game but lategame it is literally no better than Banana

civic crane
#

overcharge specifically (and the Stone of Idle buff that came with it)

fallen plover
#

My bad timeline gardian but my point still stands , endgame is basically inexistant, now this is gonna kill it

hasn't been a new goal to aim for in over a year
when clearance was added, it already wasn't much of a hurdle

#

Yah game slowly dieing …. Been a good game…. I love it. But new content very slow . Now a nerf. To end game might push me to quit

civic crane
#

again, offline is still far stronger than it was when this goal was added
like at least 3x stronger
(and we had that much before Armory Staves were added, which was the same update as Clearance)

#

you can do it owocheer

I wrote about it a little bit in #update-spoilers message

A way of nerfing kills + materials but not offline soul gains for late game players who want to (maybe pointlessly) keep stacking USP would be to add another +30% offline soul bonus (or similar) upgrade.

Could even make it an expensive one to add a sense of progression on late game.

Or we can just come to the conclusion that after 140 USP nothing really matters and stop playing 😅

civic crane
#

so... "more content please"
we'll get that, even if it's not specifically asked for 😅

subtle terrace
#

Yeah, basically lol

I mean more about the timing, if it's released together with the "nerf" people wouldn't have that negative sentiment of being slowed down and be frustrated/complain, just that.

Hey look. At least this nerf isn't as bad as the old "rework"

#

We kill at a rate of 0,3 instead of the 0,35 or something like that

#

Still. Progress when idle is dead. Rage is only good if you get souls, and key trailing too

#

Idle was the only reliable way to know you're for sure gonna be able to progress. Even if slowly

#

I'm completely against this nerf

#

If we want to nerf idle. 0,05 to 0,3 isn't something small

#

Rather than that. Make it 0,1

#

It only shinned in endgame

civic crane
#

and now it's good everywhere

#

Overcharge is still an 81% speed buff

neon jackal
#

Is it gonna outshine rage mode?

civic crane
#

yeah

neon jackal
#

When.

civic crane
#

I'm not getting like 20 soul bonuses per day, with compass and shards necklace and pills
so, present day

neon jackal
#

Let's say someone has a awful RNG

#

Plays all day and gets 3 soul bonuses

#

Idle is a safety net that you're gonna make progress anyway

civic crane
#

uh... yeah.

#

It's a very good safety net

neon jackal
#

The safety net should be at least somewhat of about 10-15% in comparison to a very good RNG

civic crane
#

Like I said, I don't play enough to get that or six times that many (which is probably how much effort it would take for online play to be better)
so I just... Wouldn't.
Offline is still good.

#

very.

neon jackal
#

Like. With overcharge I still found myself having better results with rage+ souls

#

But only when I get soul boosts

#

Which happens rarely

civic crane
#

like, I'd get a soul bonus and get maybe 4-5 Qi SP
and I got a little over 200 Qi every day offline
so even with a -30% nerf, 140 Qi every day still beats a lot of... wait what the hell. That's more than seventy soul bonuses.

neon jackal
#

Math ain't mathing

civic crane
#

No it ain't lol

#

That's 28 (or more)

neon jackal
#

Even with 100% offline focused stone distribution I get around 100qa per day

#

But with a even distribution I get around 300qa with a single soul boost

#

Also. I don't get what's the main target of the nerf

#

Nerfing offline soul and materials near endgame would feel more reasonable than nerfing the kill time

#

And something that I have to note here

#

I feel like this nerf is like dark shot. Its way slower but stronger. And many people don't care about souls. Just the feeling of killing a lot of enemies. And just vibing

#

And to another thing. Many people focus on offline because they can't play Active enough to make it worth it

fast sigil
#

I mean the main target of the nerf is probably how many enemies are killed which is why that was decreased and soul rate was buffed to compensate

neon jackal
#

Then why not making it equal soul gains?

#

Also, the new gear should really focus on rage mode too

#

Since the meta is following what most of the game meta already is

civic crane
#

the meta is the meta
very insightful

on top of that, it's an unfair comparison because you get those rewards offline without the use of any items
so it's worth way more than mentioned above
offline is still very cracked, even for just souls cracked
