[smoky python]

Ah haha

[scarlet hollow]

guys i have a question what does the last row on the composite exactly mean?

for granite e.g.: earth 3 crit and resolve

does this mean every earth unit gets this bonus if i have the granite composite?

[candid galleon]

Means the composite units get that bonus per level of the affinity. It does not affect the Earth units.

So for granite, if you have Earth4, then your granite units get 12 grit and 12 resolve.

This is INSTEAD OF the Earth3 threshold bonus. Only your non-composite Earth illuvials use that threshold bonus.

[scarlet hollow]

ahh thx, that explains alot 🙂

[sacred finch]

sometimes illuvials doesn't attack the closest one like this phyriox attacking my scoriox instead of seeforus, is this a bug or is intended?

[smoky python]

Intended

Scoriox is actually closer because of the way they coded the game

Hopefully they change it

[vocal junco]

why is the play button grayed out?

[vestal vault]

I was wondering if im the only one

[smoky python]

It's a bug that will reset when the deck changes

I've had it 3-4 times it sucks

[lofty kettle]

Is there any way to avoid crashes in UE4?
Today's deck is crashing frequently even with my pc doing only iluvium tasks.
yesterday there were very few

[smoky python]

The game crashes a lot unfortunately

[lofty kettle]

I gave up trying to get first place today

[gentle bronze]

Yeah the game crashes a decent bit but is supposed to be fixed when pb2 comes out

[bronze canopy]

i didn't

Hi but cooler then sjuds hi

[old lark]

Just started hitting it pretty hard the last few weeks

[halcyon nova]

anybody been getting a driver error on starting illuvium on windows 64 only just started think it might be due to a windows update

Ive re installed the game client and the video drivers still the same ???

game still runs if I hit ok

[analog umbra]

congrats! glad you're enjoying it

[analog umbra]

You're saying you reinstalled your video drivers and the error is still there?

[halcyon nova]

Yes sir

[analog umbra]

You sure you installed the most up to date drivers as well? That looks like a driver issue rather than an ILV issue

I might be a liar though

[halcyon nova]

I think it’s probably a windows update issue the pc updated itself the other day and ive been getting the dreaded blue screen of death tried all the google suggestions. Ill keep trying. Its a windows issue i think

[analog umbra]

Damn that's too bad, did the pc turn off mid update?

maybe the update got corrupted

[halcyon nova]

Ill work on it it’s definitely not an illuvium issue thanks anyway just wanted to makesure

[analog umbra]

good luck

[azure marten]

Ку

[zenith bough]

Do we have an update like Johnny did on ILV zero for PB2?

[brazen quarry]

Don't think we have

[zenith bough]

could be nice

[brazen quarry]

Maybe we can ask @proven ember

[smoky python]

I imagine when it gets close to ready then there will be previews and hype videos

[brazen quarry]

You think so?

[smoky python]

Just gotta wait for 2023

[zenith bough]

Found it nice to get a peak in the process, and what milestones they were focusing. Without giving dates

[proven ember]

when the date is locked in internally we'll make announcements and create some content relating to what is going on

[brazen quarry]

Don't think they really want a date, just asking for a update what you guys are working on I guess

But thanks for the quick reply 🙂

[zenith bough]

It was more like an overview, like this. No date. 🙂

#🎮〕illuvium-zero message

[proven ember]

So folks- on the Autobattle. We've had a great last couple of sprints with huge amounts of work and story points being done, @eternal steeple somehow managed to pull off something like 23 storypoints in the last sprint. (we aim for 10 storypoints a sprint)

Design team has spent the last month overhauling and rebalancing pretty much everything. From Armaments, to Illuvials, to Synergies and Augments. I don’t think there is a single game entity that hasn’t had some love. That ofc results in some significant balance changes so that’s been the focus for the last 2 weeks.

As of this Monday, balance is on pause and design is turning attention to the Overworld and to Ascendant. The balance isn’t by any means done - but it’s as good as we can get it until some key bugs/fixes are complete by the dev team.

The autobattle dev team are hard at work with bugs/fixes, we’re feature and scope locked for Pb2 now (meaning no changes are allowed to underlying design - game or otherwise) so for them it’s a matter of just cracking on with these. Once those are complete - design and data teams will pick back up with balance.

The other team that’s involved with Pb2 is the backend team, they’ve just been pulled off to work on Illuvidex and some IMX stuff, so progress will be a bit slow regarding pb2 on that front.

In some autobattle related design news, we’re not happy with how we go about generating baseline stats and have been doing some experimenting on this front. Right now due to how they’re allocated.. Low tier Illuvials that gain the majority of their combat strength via stats (like fighters and bulwarks) are struggling to make an impact, whereas high tier Illuvials with their massive stat allocations are able to fulfil roles they shouldn’t be. Elk shouldn’t be able to moonlight as a tank, when the intended counterplay around powerful empaths/psions are to blow them up. We experimenting with some changes regarding this but they likely won’t be in PB2 due to the vast gameplay differences the changes make.

@zenith bough @brazen quarry that work for ya?

[zenith bough]

I love you Ben. THANK YOU.

[brazen quarry]

This guy is amazing

[zenith bough]

Exciting to see all the areas that needs attention, the scope is big for a mini game!

Thought balance was AI though - but that might just be a dream for the future?

[proven ember]

it is partially, it becomes more so as time progresses. for now it's a tool in our toolbelt

[smoky python]

What kind of datapoints is the AI learning from? It's own simulations or player battles?

[zenith bough]

Makes sense, since balance also can be design choices and not just stats. Can't wait, keep it up guys.

Good job!

Not on the "no sleep" part though 😄

Kidding, sleeping is important

[zenith bough]

agreed. More efficient.

[zenith bough]

Adventure / coal mine? same same

[kindred hawk]

You guys find ramphyre op? I find his health for an assassin to be too high. I know he’s one of the most marketed illuvials but he seems a bit op with his top tier stats, omega ability, combined with being a rogue.

[turbid osprey]

Hes a god, getting nerfed in the next patch

[old lark]

There are 24k ppl watching a Pokémon Go torny rn.

I wonder how long after launch till we get there

[silver verge]

I honestly think rogues in general are a bit overtuned I see them hitting for 3-4K+ sometimes which oneshot ur tanks as well :/

[zenith bough]

Ge needs to be placed so he doesn’t die, and optimally gets hyper. Then he wins the wave for you

[kindred hawk]

Yeah I just hope in pvp he’s more balanced. I don’t think any of us want to see a standard team or the same illuvial on every team

[regal hound]

Own simulations

[kindred hawk]

You can kind of just see it on paper then in videos as well where it seems they’re op

[gentle bronze]

Guys let’s remember that not all the illuvials are released yet. It is very hard to balance the game if there is major parts of the game missing. Illuvials with taunts and more tanks are likely going to drop the win rate of rogues.

[bronze canopy]

https://tenor.com/view/shoo-go-away-johnny-depp-captain-jack-sparrow-gif-4877675

this guy and his common sense

sheesh

[gentle bronze]

Jk nerf rogues I hate them and they’re so annoying to play

Devs fix now or I’m quitting

:^^)))

[zenith mortar]

https://tenor.com/view/wilson-dan-appreciate-about-you-letter-kenny-hick-gif-9506960

[kindred hawk]

I wasn’t complaining about rogues. Just wanted to ask how others had felt about ramphyre in general. It’s a fair point you made but I’m just asking for peoples opinions as I don’t have access but I see it on illuvimaster and videos that he might seem quite op. For survival the balancing is easy anyway, he cost more to play

[gentle bronze]

I honestly don’t feel like he’s that good ngl

There’s certain scenarios where he is crazy good but most of the time I don’t even use him

[vernal forum]

He definitely has some counters. I like to use a Ryplance to 1v1 him cause Ryplance wins that easily. You can also use something like a Sear to tank him and then a kukka to direct the fire from your ranged Illuvials to focus him down.

You absolutely MUST make sure he doesnt get hyper though. Once he is hyper its over.

[gentle bronze]

This is true but you can see it from a mile away.

Now depending on how pvp works he could be broken when it comes to that

But again there’s so much speculation cause there’s so much we don’t know yet

[vernal forum]

I think he wont be as good in PVP since there will be less illuvials on the board. He really shines when the opponent has a bunch of low stage characters that he can nuke down in one big omega.

[kindred hawk]

I’m going to make a note of that.

I appreciate the discussion, maybe he isn’t as op as I had thought. He just needs to be accounted for, which I think any assassin character you’d say that for

[vernal forum]

Theres gonna be a lot of balance changes when PB2 releases so things might change pretty soon.
Do keep in mind that as a Stage 3 Tier 5 he SHOULD be one of the strongest Illuvials in the game. He may feel less uniquely powerful once there are other Illuvials in the game similar to his power level.

Cause Titanor and Adorius are also super strong, I would even argue that Titanor is a better Illuvial than Ramphyre

[safe valve]

Imo titanor is t6 if ramphyre is t5... As you said ramphyre is just strong in certain situations. Titanor you can pick in every fight and hes strong af

[vernal forum]

Yeah for now playing him is kind of a no brainer. Hopefully once they introduce a couple more tanks he feels less necessary. The water buffalo line will be the other Illuvial with the Colossus class so I think he might be capable of subbing out for Titanor as a main tank.
Ive also noticed people getting way better at using axodon as a main tank since he is super strong once you can get him hyper.

[safe valve]

Yep, axodon is a beast... Especially for his price

[umbral glen]

Can be so squishy tho. One crit before he gets his shield up, and he's gone. Gotta expend another illuvial to protect him sometimes.

And I think keeping Ramphyre OP like he is would be the best move. Gotta have some obvious winners in there.

[kindred hawk]

I think it leaves less variety

[umbral glen]

My takes are unpopular I know, but I just think if he's going to be one of the faces of the franchise, that he needs to be a slight notch above the rest. Atlas doesn't really do that, so somebody as to fill that role.

[safe valve]

Just because he is on some advertising pics/vids is no reason to make an illuvial unbalanced

[umbral glen]

In any fighting game, there are fighters who most people will have high/low on their tier list, no matter how balanced the devs try to make things. I agree the illuvials could use more balancing out, but I just hope when it's all said and done, Ramphyre is on most people's S Tier.

[smoky python]

They decided they didnt want to balance the Illuvials for PB1

but they will be trying to do it for PB2

[safe valve]

Don't think he is just talking about the betas...

[covert terrace]

[sly garnet]

Oooh does this mean Ascendant is part of PB2? 🙏

[smoky python]

I wish

[halcyon nova]

sorted ......extened system partition was getting a bit small .rolled back a few updates and re installed did a clean install of drivers all ok now 😉

[halcyon nova]

who ever design the waves to day must have been in a very bad mood

[sly garnet]

Yeah me too! 🙏 I mean Kieron did say they were contemplating what to put in PB2 and what to leave out & PvP was mentioned as one of the things they were unsure of. Then we get this update from Ben which is an update on PB2 & he mentions Ascendant..... 🤔🙏

[smoky python]

If PB2 has Ascendant i will be so happy

[sly garnet]

It would be huge! We can only hope

[halcyon nova]

I fell down the ladder about 200 places whilst my pc was down ...but the phoenix will rise

based on the pinned message PB2 will be even more of a reset than I was planning on 💪

PvP

[kindred hawk]

Ahhhh

That’ll be really cool

[unique moss]

Just to clarify, the Arenas will likely be referred to by the names.

Survival Arena (PvE waves)
Ascendant Arena (Ranked PvP)
Leviathan Arena (ETH Wagering PvP 🐳)

[crude dragon]

if i was to install my PB1 onto another PC will I be banned? I initially installed it on my laptop so i could play anywhere. but my desktop has RTX.

[kindred hawk]

Is there a separate one where level of illuvial is considered from overworld or will all illuvials be set to same level? I thought there were 2 different ascendants for this but maybe leviathan and ascendant differ by this and the eth wagering

[smoky python]

leviathan is all the stats are different depending on what you catch

Ascendant= all stats are normalized

[gentle bronze]

Will leviathan have an elo system attached to it?

I can wait to beat @smoky python in pvp tho ngl

Found another bug.. unsure if anybody knows about it.. only happens in competitive mode & not enough time to write it up - the countdown ends and the glitch created causes the game to shutdown

Notice anything unusual xD

it happens when you dont second click the illuvial on the board. Let it hover over the board and let the countdown rundown. Itll play the piece but after the card still remains in your deck & can be played again the next round (causing 2). next round, After placing the second one you hit play, the game will read there is a glitch in the deck & shutdown

[twilit storm]

Another day of grind...what an awesome game (wave 22) third place

[zenith bough]

Oh man. Deck is super strong today. It’s fun to have one of these days 😃

hey guys, quick question: am i able to play pb2 when they release it? i currently playing pb1 now. do i need to register again?

i cant wait for the PB ❤️

[stuck portal]

Been in beta a few weeks now. Having to force myself to play this game. Maybe I'm just starting to get old but not really enjoying the current system. It's definitely not TFT. Has some good concepts but not a mainstream game. Hoping to see some significant changes in next beta.

Things that seem off.

Too flashy. Everything has crazy graphics and dilutes anything from actually feeling special.

Combat is always identical and repeated. Never any randomness. No items to build. No rolling for loot or characters. No game of chance. Doesn't feel rewarding.

Hate to be the negative nancy.. I have done 20+ Beta test over the past 20 years. The percentage of games that fail vs succeed is massive.

Would be very interested in the number of private beta testers that log in daily and time played.

[bronze canopy]

@smoky python off stream, first try wave 30

😐

[unique moss]

https://tenor.com/view/sure-jim-the-office-okay-mmm-gif-17183499

[woven flint]

All your concern about randomness and luck, that will never change, and that for good !
That s a big point they decided "stratégie, not luck".

For item ect that will come do some research about ranger armor / weapons on leaks, look about augments ect

Graphics is also very key point they want and that's is exactly the difference between a game from super ness, game boy or windows 95.

ATM all crypto games could be working on a game boy so it s important to make a difference.

You compare with TFT which is a full game with pvp and everything.
Here it s only "survival mode" in very early phase, that will be completely different at launch.

Giving feedback is really important, but they shouldhave a good basis.

Comparing with TFT is like saying :
I love my truck, but fuck it didn t go as fast as a Ferrari.
Or saying I like this Ferrari but fuck I can t store as much things in it.

Both are rel points, but both are useless 😘

[full light]

ll your concern about randomness and luck, that will never change, and that for good !
That s a big point they decided "stratégie, not luck".

saying somthing will never change is not accurate. The game is still in deveoplement

Promoting only skill based is valid in E-sport is a very limited view
your basically saying only a "chess style win" is valid e-sport

Since even MTG is a skill based win e-sport ...

[woven flint]

I agree that the "and that s for good" is a personal point of view.
For me people wishing for luck to beet someone don t deserve it.
What worse feeling when you did everything better than your opponent and the guy do 3crit in a raw and beat you ....

But I understand that some kind of people can be happy with that

[candid galleon]

Should also understand that what we're playing now is basically the "training mode" of the game.

There will be income.
There will be Augments ("items", essentially).
There will be an opponent whom you have to outsmart.

[lean junco]

health management, gold management, check points... + 100 illuvials.
You should compare when we will have a full expérience.

[full light]

That is the point I was trying to make
--------- > All below should be viewed as IMO <--------------
The loss is no different than any other loss .
The opponent still "deserved to win"
Its no less "Valid" than a chess style win
It does not matter what happened during the game the "better skilled play still won" In this case it was due to putting that asset into play that gave them the chance to get the "3xcrit"
If you want to "feel bad" about it because your "perception is you should have won" or "the Victory was "stolen" due to it was not a chess style win -- that is a person perception matter not a statement on the game or match itself.

As for why I think a MTG /Poker style would be better for the Health of the game

You take 1 Chess Grandmaster and put them in "random que" chess tournament with " 100 players of random skill" no argument it would be a safe bet to put money the chess grandmaster will win ( unless 1 of the 100 is also a chess grandmaster which still makes my point a grand master still won)

You take the Top poker player in the world /MTG pro tour champion and put them in a tournament with 100 players of random skill - the bet is not so safe.

Yet they are ** both considered " more skill than luck"** game and both have an element of RNG built into the basis of the game

If players notice a pattern x / x / x/ x/ are in this tournament and x /x/ x/ have won the last 5 tournament in a row . How many people are going to continue to enter once they realize this pattern?

[smoky python]

Stop talking about MTG when you have no idea what you are talking about

[full light]

You should take your own advice You spew more complete BS about YOUR personal view on here than anyone else
OMG if it has RNG it not a true e-sport and wont be taken seriously
OMG PVP is the main draw to longevity
OMG i sooo good the devs better listen to me because I'm the only one qualified to do so the game will suck without my input
OMG Arena is going to be soo much better than overworld because casuals
OMG why would anyone just want to wander around and collect stuff pvp is the only vehicle to retention

IMO you have no CLUE what is best for PVP or the longevity of the game
So i guess we should agree to disagree on who does not know what they are talking about

"If you want to "feel bad" about it because your "perception is you should have won" or "the Victory was "stolen" due to it was not a chess style win -- that is a person perception matter not a statement on the game or match itself."

That is exactly why when I listen to very early itw of Aaron where he was saying exactly that there will be no luck involve that I choose to really go for this game and tht s what I like.

So I just told the guy who criticized that fact there is no luck involved as a bad thing, that it is not.

If you wanna play a luck based game, do it no prob, but for once we will have a game where we will not get stolen a perfectly normal victory by someone who just had his one time, don t try to change it and go play a game luck based !

"for once we will have a game where we will not get stolen a perfectly normal victory by someone who just had his one time, don t try to change it and go play a game luck based ! "

Things can still change that is not written in stone .

[woven flint]

Well yeh it s a DAO, let s say I hope if it comes to a vote that we can rallie alot to vote against randomness then 😅

[full light]

Some how I think that is a general game design decision not a DAO decision. Hopefully they pick the one that benefits the greater number of players ( the other 99 not the 1) and the health of game overall as I noted in the examples in my post.

[summer ibex]

NGMI

[woven flint]

Then we are good ❤️
I follow since sept 2020 and it has been said multiple times by Aaron or Kieran that it will be predetermined with no randomness.
For exemple 30% Crit mean 1crit 2 autoatack, 1 Crit, 2 autoatack, you LL never avec 3 Crit in a raw.

After promoting this for that long, that would be weird to change in a blink of an eye

You seem to think things cant change ...its amazing...

[full light]

Im not aggressive if you actually read my reply to you was was well thought out You intentionally completely ignored 90% my response compared to .. your "recation" to one sentance of it

"we will have a game where we will not get stolen a perfectly normal victory by someone who just had his one time,"

If we are going to start compare how each persons post is perceived , If you perceived my as aggressive your allowed that opinion my personal opinion on how yours sounded is :

I found extremely emotional and misrepresentative saying your win was "stolen" like you were entitled to it because that's how it works in " chess" that response also sounded very very selfish and self serving as you seem more concerned with your own epeen validation than the greater good of the game that will benefit the most people not just a select few .

[woven flint]

Dude we just disagree, that s all.
I give another example.
You put rrypterus in front of rampyre, he kill him before his omega. That s fact.
Now imagine you do that witch is a counter by design.
Then the rampyre Crit 3 time on your rrypterus, kill him and go omega on your team.

The fact :
You did the right thing, but because your opponent got lucky or you get unlike whatever, you go from a win by design to a loss.

As I said, if people like it, good for them, but as it as been said several time, this is not the case in this game, so complaining about it seems not ok for me.

In poker in short run it happens, in long run, variance got equilazed, if I want this i play poker.
If I don t I will not go to say "you have to change the rule of poker"

Not sure if you get my point

[sly garnet]

I thought critical hits were set in stone. As in, if Ramphyre has a 25% crit hit chance, it will critical hit every 4th shot without fail. I could be wrong though. So, that takes the chance element out because everyone knows how many crits are coming

[full light]

The fact :
You did the right thing, but because your opponent got lucky or you get unlike whatever, you go from a win by design to a loss.

Again you keep proving my point. You should be playing chess or another game where there is no deviation as it seems to be the only way you will be happy and get a feeling of validation.

[woven flint]

You really don't listen.
That s the opposite.

I play this because it s said there is no randomness, If people want randomness that should play another game ! Not complain to change it

[full light]

I do - -You are saying ARENA is this way because that is what has been said .

I'm saying If they want to change the game in the design phase they are more that welcome to. Just because they said this in 2020 doe not mean that it is still valid today or can't change

ALL im saying is stop saying "this is how it is " and its not a fact that your loss was design flaw . You can play a prefect hand of poker and still lose if you don't get your cards . That is how MY opinion the game should be .

[woven flint]

Ok ok have a great day 😉

[full light]

""If people want randomness that should play another game ! ""
Are we still doing that perception analyses thing ? i have a lot i could say about a that sentence .....

Yes an I'm saying even if they said no Randomness .. *They can change their mind if it will benefit a greater number of player base !!! what part of that can you not accept?

you seem to think because they said no randomness its PERMENENT!

there is no game to change right now because they are not finished making it.

[candid galleon]

I like turtles.

[full light]

If your talking about the chocolate .. i find it tooo chewy ... talking about animal turtles are cute .... talking bout the illuvial I like that one to

[summer ibex]

Squirtle squirtle

[coarse echo]

It would actually be more fun if you queue into a match and then it just says "You win" or "You lose." Then everyone would have a fair chance, instead of just the people who are better than me.

[smoky python]

Good point

Thats way more efficient

[tight bluff]

There's 30 illuvials, no pvp and the board never changes. That's why.

[reef rivet]

is there a way to turn off the health bars? i want to zoom in get a nice screenshot

[zenith mortar]

shift + h and shift + u for health bars and UI

[reef rivet]

woah thanks 🙂

[zenith mortar]

Camera & Zoom:

• WASDQE controls camera and zoom (A&D do a nice side to side camera strafe, Q&E moves up and down)
• Arrow keys work same as WASD
• Hold right click with mouse to move around camera
• Mouse wheel zooms
• Space bar to reset zoom to default and Illuvial deck filters
• 1, 2 or 3 number keys for default camera views

Game hotkeys & commands

• Hover over afinity / class / Illuvial cards in deck to see more info
• Right click an Illuvial on the board to view its stats / affinity, etc
• Shift + Right click on ranger to change weapon / gear
• Shift + H Hide/unhide health bars
• Shift + U hide/unhide UI
• Click on "Wave" at top to see upcoming wave

System Hotkeys

• B for opening bug report menu
• Alt + Enter = toggle full screen / windowed mode

Bonus

• Control D: Easter egg that places non-battle frog - (can fill the board but not actually battle as it causes an error and relaunches game)

[bright pine]

I am a really fan of auto chess, tft, etc.. I have been testing pb1 for 15 days and overcame my expectations, it is really good game for a early stage with only alpha pve !
The game is fun, complex, competitive, challenging !
My expectations are very high for when they launch the full pvp, it will definitely attract traditional and crypto players

[humble hill]

Regarding randomness: Statistically (this has been shown in many studies and apply to many kinds of games) MOST players (that doesn't mean everyone ofc) prefer a little bit or randomness but not too much.
There has to be a balance. Also, some types of games are suited to more randomness and some are suited to less, and it also comes down to personal preference.
Personally I hope for SOME randomness (perhaps 10-20% in the right places) for the autobattler and I hope that the team try out different combinations of where the randomness occurs (for instance, 25% could mean that every fourth hit crits, but the bonus damage of the crit could vary a bit) and how much it affects the results.

[molten palm]

any tips for stage 10? way too many monsters

le sigh guess stage 10's my cap for the day.....

[bronze canopy]

you should try looking at how people stream/look at videos in #🎨〕community-content on the autobattler. You might get some ideas to help you climb easier

i cant remember wave 10 today, so cant really help

[molten palm]

i usually only have time to play the game don't got time to watch streams

but its all good i wont have time to play until the deck changes and thats what defeats me everytime

i dont have the time to succeed with any decks in my day to day business

i even had 8 tries today and still couldnt come out on top usually only got time for 2-3

[unique moss]

https://tenor.com/view/gentleman-and-scholar-office-gif-21402006

[lean ivy]

Are you playing in competitive mode? I would suggest slow playing in casual for 2-3 attempts instead. You will learn a lot more and climb further.

If you ARE playing in casual, I would spend a day watching a stream instead of playing. It will help you a lot in the long run.

[molten palm]

yeah since i have limited time i play on competitive so i can play as many as i can. But i dont learn by watching people unless they explain what and why they are doing certain things

otherwise i learn best by playing, but damn is this game so confusing and enemy units are too much in abundance it makes it hard to learn when you start over from scratch everytime. :/

Im really waiting for PB2 to make the game more playable for me

[safe valve]

They do explain why they do what they do. Even if the would say nothing, you could See their placement... Do i Tank enemy rouges, let i just walk them to my frontline... Oh wow, i can actually Tank with my adorious some rogues, and increase the healing... And Way more

[molten palm]

Hopefully the deck still the same in 6 hours so i can try that out!

[safe valve]

I didn't even know there is a hyper-bar before i watched the first Stream 😂

[molten palm]

i personally just wish i had more time in my day cause its so much my brain wont keep up past stage 14 usually

what usually happens to me is ill get to stage 12 and lose, then decide to try something else out and i dont even make it back there

that defeating feeling tears me away tbh

[safe valve]

Yep, until Like wave 12-14 it's a nobrainer, 14+ normally you need to really Start to think about placement and counters

[molten palm]

i assure you after moass ill probably be able to dedicate time to learning this game but i just wanna enjoy it for what little time i can for now

and not have to stress over a mass amount of learning

its just far too confusing to learn when getting knocked back to stage 1 PB2 will fix that 🙂

[reef rivet]

is a draw possible on the board? like 1 healer left on both sides... and they dont have enough damage to finish each other

[fervent barn]

If you still have Illuvials alive when the timer runs out it counts as a win in the current set up - Mods correct me if I'm wrong

[lyric river]

you are correct if you have illuvials alive after 1 min +-1 sec

[rain coral]

correct!

[rich ibex]

cool

[zenith mortar]

Welcome

I’ll try to visit again tomorrow

[halcyon nova]

you win in that senario as the survior

[reef rivet]

What if this happened in the pvp arenas though…

[halcyon nova]

dunno to be honest I guess the wager gets returned to both parties .....interesting question though

or the one who placed the higher bet wins ......very interesting to find out how that would work indeed

[bronze canopy]

They will be be removing draws with a feature like in tft

[lyric river]

come for illuvium stay for the personality

[gentle bronze]

If personality stands for dashing good looks I’d have to agree

God I wish I could kiss shabim 🥲🥵

[bronze canopy]

🍆

[unique moss]

Well he's only a plane trip away, right?

[gentle bronze]

Maybe when ILV reaches $2k again ;-;

[gentle bronze]

First try wave 22

Looks like everyone is getting stuck there eh? 😂

[brazen quarry]

Same 😄 1 try and got rekt on 22

[bronze canopy]

1st try wave 29, and even then died by a sliver on 29. couldnt be bothered to play again

[unique moss]

Aw 😔 Why's that?

[bronze canopy]

In my heart i have already beaten it

I did play with other set ups for another hour, without scoriox or dualeph

Challenged myself

[lilac grail]

@bronze canopy
I'm in the club !

Are you already at 200 ?

[bronze canopy]

Around 150,been crashing a lot less lately

Not complaining

[gentle bronze]

All the future crashes shabim had were given to me

[unique moss]

I'm just THAT good of a guy

[brazen quarry]

[vernal forum]

Wow this deck today is perfect.

[gentle bronze]

truly everything youd want in a deck ngl

[brazen quarry]

What wave did you get too?

[vernal forum]

4 so far but this is my first try

[brazen quarry]

What about sear and adorius

[unique moss]

If this is true, then I guess y'all don't need PB2 or any additional updates @vernal forum 👀

[gentle bronze]

Sear costs too much most of the time but adorius would be nice

[gentle bronze]

Don't you DARE put that evil on me!

[vernal forum]

I would be fine if we got to keep this deck until pb2 launches.

[brazen quarry]

Feels good to go wave 20+

[unique moss]

Nah I kid, no one wants the play a perfect deck every day anyways. Well, okay... speaking for myself, I certainly don't.

[zenith mortar]

I cant wave 20\

me no good

[brazen quarry]

Did you try today? I got to 22 quite easy

[vernal forum]

Some of these decks the last week or so felt like they picked all the worst illuvials on purpose.

[brazen quarry]

Good training

[gentle bronze]

I provide coaching lessons for $10 a minute

[lost valve]

Great I can save on the laptop so I can buy more during another bloodbath

[molten palm]

damn wave 13 today and they are on crack. my units were just moving around enemies while getting destroyed and not attacking back

5th try today time to get my day going it was worth another shot

this shits so damn hard

[candid galleon]

I remember you saying that you're a brute force kind of guy and that otherwise it's not fun. I also remember you saying that you don't have time to play slowly.

All I can tell you is that if you rush this game at first, you're not going to do well. It requires a lot of patience. You want to turn on casual mode and observe how positioning causes certain units to attack others, and practice very precise positioning and planning. You'll get faster at it with practice and will eventually be able to play on competitive, but if you aren't very patient/thoughtful about it at first, then you're probably not going to do well.

Not trying to call you out, just trying to give you some legit helpful advice. Best of luck!

[lyric river]

Who plays on competitive?

[turbid osprey]

I had to reinstall windows and i cant run ilv now it says this, how can i fix it?

also had this

actually have a lot of different ones

[unique moss]

Hey Patate— have you tried deleting the Illuvium folder/files and then logging in on the website to redownload and install once again?

[turbid osprey]

My entire pc all reset i just downloaded from the website, should i try again?

[unique moss]

Ah you just downloaded it? Have you restarted your PC since you downloaded the new files?

[turbid osprey]

No i havent

[unique moss]

Are you able to restart the PC and try launching the game again to see if it works? And then report back 🙂

[turbid osprey]

will do just now, thanks @unique moss

[turbid osprey]

Still the same. I downloaded from the site then extracted all and then try to run from ''illuvium-win64-shipping'' as the app itself has never work for me. Also tried running as administrator and its the same thing.

[unique moss]

I It looks like the files listed in those error messages you posted are Microsoft DirectX files. Since you just had to reinstall windows, I would check to see you have the latest version of Microsoft DirectX installed on your PC.

Install the latest version of it if you don’t have it yet.

[turbid osprey]

I had the latest but i found a way to be able to open trough the normal app, i just had to download something that was a prerequisite to real engine 4

[fervent barn]

I'm only using a GTX 1650 and I have no issues playing the current Beta build or Dev build so you should be good to go

[late lagoon]

Yeah I am and it works fine the laptop heats up loads though so I have the fans running constantly

[lyric river]

I have a cooling fan under mine when I don’t turn it on it crashes sometimes

[molten palm]

[brazen quarry]

I'll watch some Poker since @bronze canopy is slacking

Cool grandma

[safe stirrup]

Holy you boys I finally did something cool, my highest wave done

[brazen quarry]

Nice! Congratz!

Hmmm maybe I should use ador 👀

[safe stirrup]

So upset as I think I would’ve won this wave if I put teeantee two little hexs to the left

[brazen quarry]

You could always try again 👀

People that didn't play PB1 will never appreciate checkpoints enough

[safe stirrup]

But I think I’m ready for the next update BRING OUT THAT PB2

Yea checkpoints will for sure bring retention to the gamemode

You just call it a day when you lose but with checkpoints you will still play

[lean ivy]

This answer needs to be accepted as well 😉

[brazen quarry]

All 3 are just wind chicken for me

[lean ivy]

Love it "Wind Chicken" Just rolls off the tongue

[languid sparrow]

My image is ingame also.

[high niche]

second run, why didn't I take screenshots of the waves😭

[rain coral]

so close, nice

[proven ember]

First ever post 30 in competitive.

I am a winner.

[rain coral]

look at these lynxes, just famous

[unique moss]

Aww Atippo

[turbid osprey]

the secret is multiple trashbirds!

[dark scaffold]

3 minutes to prepare at wave 31 👀

[proven ember]

currently trashbirds are brokenbirds

and berserker is what drug is game design on.

[turbid osprey]

Ye i heard but i dont think they can be renamed

[turbid osprey]

was it a close 27? This wave is amazing i cant solve it

[proven ember]

look at those mastery points from interest.

read em and weep

[high niche]

no, it didn't go according to plan, so enemy Rhamphire kill half of my units (

[brisk dove]

Is pb2 out!?

[brazen quarry]

Hahahaha you adopted the name, love it

[coarse echo]

Nice tease. Gimme more!

[zenith bough]

Is it a feature or a bug you playing 2 of the same units?

[coarse echo]

It's dev build. He can slap whatever he wants on either side of the board

[proven ember]

Nah, I can't. Same rules as normal.

[proven ember]

Duplicates can exist in the same deck. this one just was odd and had a 2* shoebill 3 and 1* shoebill 2.

[coarse echo]

So you're saying there's a playable version?

[proven ember]

OFC, playtesting survival atm.

[coarse echo]

Enemy looks awfully weak for wave 31

[proven ember]

Yeah it is.

[coarse echo]

Are there augments on that board?

[proven ember]

on my side yeah.

[coarse echo]

The icons over their heads?

[proven ember]

yeah

[coarse echo]

Up to 3 per unit?

[coarse echo]

Oh yeah, I see 2

Mistook the thing in the middle as an extra one, instead of part of the left one

Enemies will get augments too though, right?

[proven ember]

yep

they do normally - screenshot isn't representative of what you'd normally see

[coarse echo]

And for us, they'll be random cards in the random deck?

[proven ember]

yup

[coarse echo]

Please make them very expensive

Also, why the hate for 'poison'? I liked that name

Toxic berserker Ranger. Nice.

And slayer umbre

[proven ember]

poison is a condition

[coarse echo]

Fair. Separate the terminology

[zenith bough]

Will it be allowed in Leviathan too?

Titanor will be SO f*** expensive then 😄

[proven ember]

No bonuses to classes from duplicates. I was just running a meme comp

[coarse echo]

I mean, the lack of bonuses won't matter if you drop two titanors on the board...

in the current state

[proven ember]

SeaScorpion will kill a Titan in under 15secs, with some anti tank augments you can do it in under 10.

[coarse echo]

don't let sea scoripion hit titanor then

🤔

I'm just messing around. I know things will have counters

Will there be Omega AoE related augments?

Grant talked about archeleon big aoe heal as an example of augment design a while ago

[proven ember]

35 second timer.

Just increases by 5 secs each wave

We'll see. Not changing it for now

Likely won't be able to hit 30 once all systems are live.

As far as I know, nobody has hit wave 30 in pb1 competitive

Without playing without timers first?

if you solve it without timers then just copy the solution in competitive then that's not the same.

Times can change with playtesting, but for now I'm not going to change them.

If the feedback when players have experienced it is that it's too long then we'll reduce

Feedback from 1 person, who hasn't experienced the game state isn't going to sway things at this stage.

It's a change I am happy to make in future if needed.

[coarse echo]

I have to agree for now, 5 seconds extra per round will likely be way to much. We'll see though.

[coarse echo]

this is interesting to hear

yes, that's why it's interesting

[vernal forum]

Do we have a lower starting total for mastery points in PB2? Seems like with interest it’ll be super quick to max out a board. Starting at 60 or 90 would be cool since it would make the low-level illuvials in the deck feel more important for early game.

[twilit storm]

another day..another leaderboard. noice (HardWorkerDoka)

To go straight to open beta

Not too sure lemme look

[feral pilot]

I wish is not true

[reef rivet]

Cant find the source… it was a clip from an interview

Why wouldnt you want it to be true though… they fast tracking release if true

Nah it was interview of illuvium team but nothing official… they say that they are talking bout it

got it... its an open demo

"we going to release an demo... that's open"

[reef rivet]

#💥〕leaks-discussion message

looks like theres no cap...

it came from grant...

haha... check the discord message link

[zenith mortar]

Lol

Please don’t spread false information sjud it’s a violation of #✍〕rules

[zenith bough]

Thank you, but I was looking for answers as to whether there would be a cap on waves 🙂

[zenith mortar]

Ser

[languid sparrow]

It's ?

Ho it's sunny outside.

[proven ember]

Not a fake, since it's made by us. But it's not a screenshot from gameplay.

Just from figma, which is the tool we use for ui design

[proven ember]

Will do before we release pb2. Need to finalize the current implementation before I do speak on it.

[coarse echo]

It's not spreading false information though. It was clearly tweeted that this is a figma prototype and not actually in game. Wouldn't claiming this as in game end screen be false info?

[coarse echo]

This should be stated when shared, so people don't get confused thinking this is a real capture from gameplay.

[zenith mortar]

It was a joke I told him this in #💬〕general

And he dm’d me about it.

[regal hound]

Let me answer this with a question: What would you like the cap to be?

[coarse echo]

No hard cap, endless scaling where it gets harder and harder

[zenith mortar]

I think this is best imo

Like the original zombies on cod lol

Just go until you get rekt

[quasi sage]

That would be fun having endless survival waves. Would be cool once you hit a certain wave you unlock more powerful augments. Such as every 10 rounds you get an upgraded augment.

[coarse echo]

you don't need to unluck new stuff, the game just gets harder until you eventually lose

[quasi sage]

Rich compared it to COD zombies where you become more powerful as it progresses. I personally like that idea for not as a punishing system in later rounds gives you a chance.

[coarse echo]

that's how survival works, you become more powerful as you get more mastery points and can upgrade your board.

[quasi sage]

Yes mastery points at a certain point in pb1 become useless. Hopefully those will be usable for bonding/augments.

[coarse echo]

yeah, that's already assumed. to scale harder than what is currently possible in pb1

[zenith bough]

I would love to be unlimited. I was asking cause I was interested in your approach to this, and to gauge wether or not you were implementing AI waves. I think it could be a very good ‘training ground’ for an AI, with the stated goal to have a bell curve distribution of people dying at around wave 15-20. If you could succeed at that, I personally have high hopes for the balance of the game in the future too. 🤓 but I think it hinges on the AI ability to ‘understand’ the human ability to play the game, to balance properly. Also, unlimited is always more fun to play, even though in reality it doesn’t matter if there is a max far beyond reach

[halcyon nova]

so sombody want augments in before the open demo ..... 😉

I kinda like that challange

[silent root]

Hi, all, i have no accss to the beta, but someone know what is the best team of illuvials for go wave 1 to 20 and may be after ?

no answers for know the best illuvials for each waves ?

[dark scaffold]

every day is different and your deck changes, same as your opponents so its really hard to answer what would be best, there are few illuvials that are overall good (like titanor, rhyplace, scoriox) but all of them have thier counters

todays best pick for wave X may be kukka (and 10 different ones depend of your style) , tomorow it will be atlas

[silent root]

ok thx, it's a beginning for 3 mains illuvials, i must have acces for see the other good illuvial in need often

[rotund folio]

That’s why practice is the greatest tool in this game. You should see for yourself what goes well and what doesn’t work as you intend it to work

[brazen quarry]

Expose what

[thorny thorn]

This game is autobattler. Where would the strategy be pvp?

@brazen quarry

[bronze canopy]

did he expose anything fun

[brazen quarry]

No

[reef rivet]

when ramphyre flies or malura burrows and their opponent just leaves and looks for another target... and results in the omega ability just missing entirely... is this intended (possibly as a weakness) or is the team looking to fix this behavior?

[brazen quarry]

A lot will be changed in PB2

[pale fossil]

Good, he crossed a line.

[zenith bough]

Who?

[proven ember]

its intended but also changed in the future.

[pale fossil]

Mr Cry Baby

[brazen quarry]

Don't

[unique moss]

While the battles themselves play out automatically, the PvP strategy is in the preparation and set up of the battle. You and your opponent will have created your own decks and as you play the game, you will learn how each Illuvial fights, what their omegas do, what their hypers do... so you and your opponent will need to decide which Illuvials to place to try and counter each other and ultimately win the battle.

[thorny thorn]

But I'm sure there will be many of the same decks so as more people join with same decks it's just random

[vernal forum]

Have you played any other autobattlers? The strategy mostly comes from Illuvial Synergy, Placement, and Affinity countering. Theres actually quite a bit of complexity involved.

[unique moss]

https://tenor.com/view/this-gif-4354544

[thorny thorn]

okay i'll wait to test to determine

[tawny venture]

GM everyone!

[tawny venture]

Would we know if PvP will show live placement of opponent’s units (similar to TFT)?

[fervent barn]

Unsure at this time, but I can check internally.

[vernal forum]

Im like 99% sure you wont be able to see live updates of your opponent placing stuff since that would result in some weird counter micro war where you were switching positions until the last second. Aaron has mentioned that you should have a decent idea of what your opponent is working with on their board through the course of the game. That may mean that it will show the positioning of Illuvials that were used in the previous round or you may just need to remember what was on the board and where. He definitely mentioned something about not being able to freely rearrange your whole team like you can in survival mode so that your opponent's boardstate is at least somewhat predictable.

[gentle bronze]

That's very interesting I like that idea a lot

[tawny venture]

Thanks Scoot! I would be concerned if you had zero insight into what placement your opponent was using - but limiting rearranging units per turn is a great idea

[zenith bough]

Would be nice to have an option to ‘pause’ before next wave in competitive. To take a bathroom break a grab a kid falling of a chair. Could just be so the board is empty, as it is for a small amount of time before wave start right now. IMO should be of by default. It’s the only reason I play casual right now, as the time isn’t a limiting factor anymore

[brazen quarry]

I like this

[umbral glen]

An "intermission" of sorts, yeah. Love it.

[woven flint]

lol !
so you take a screenshot, you pause you turn around your brain on the creenshot, and when you figure it out, you unpause.........
Actually, that exist, it s called casual

[bronze canopy]

not pause on the wave, between the waves

[dark scaffold]

he said "before next wave" so you could have a button to click for next wave to not show up till you press it again (after you done with pee or your came back with your kid from hospital)

[gentle bronze]

Wow those are 2 very interesting and different scenarios you have there 😅

[dark scaffold]

not mine, it was positivi's if you read his post carefully 😛

[umbral glen]

A 5 minute break after wave 15. Done. Simple.

[dark scaffold]

i believe there is missing link in you profile to your YT channel 👀 make it easy for us xD

[umbral glen]

Oooh, my bad. Thanks for the heads up.

[dark scaffold]

googled "VP illuvium" and found nothing 😭

[umbral glen]

Yeah, I'm better known on my other channel (No Nonsense Forex). But we're all starting over here.

Fixed it btw, should be good.

[dark scaffold]

checking it out right now

[zenith bough]

Why though?
Gets irritating if you don’t want it, and a pause setup seems just as easy.
It could also just be: press ‘p’ during fighting scene, and the fight pauses. Then you have access to a break, and also it’s easier to understand what is happening in the fight

[umbral glen]

It's just an idea.

[zenith bough]

I was trying to understand why you felt it might be a better idea, and point to things I didn’t like. Was thinking there might be a bit more to it, but fair fair

[umbral glen]

Nope. I'm a simple man. Usually.

[high niche]

I kill all units in every wave, but some ppl have more killed enemys

[bronze canopy]

leaderboard is broken day 1

[brazen quarry]

This issue will be fixed in PB2

[coarse echo]

Welcome to the real endgame

[high niche]

tnx, this my second full clean )

[pale sapphire]

Sure I will do it

[civic grotto]

Any tips what i did wrong here? Or its just broken wave

[vernal forum]

I would prioritize the enemy axodon rather than the Titanor. Axodon is too strong if you let him get hyper.
Also you appear to be using a synalph. Pretty much any other unit is better than synalph.

But 22 isnt bad at all. Ive been seeing less people make it all the way to 30 recently.

[civic grotto]

I wanted to get shitbird instead of synalph, but i didnt have enough mastery points. Didnt know about axodon, tnx..

[vernal forum]

I woulda gone with Adoredo on the left side to take the attacks from Archeleon. Theres nothing wrong with using a double healer setup.

[full light]

@proven ember I seeing " illuvium coach" on profiles and was thinking for any mode including ** IMO ** If there is enough UI info ( more detail on my official feedback form and other comments I have made) there should not be any "essential need" for a" illuvium coach" because the game itself should have all the information regarding all required info regarding placement / affinity's / weaknesses etc while in an active match. This will ensure no new player should need to "study" with a coach or a 3rd party website to be able to enjoy game game and do well even if its their first official match. .

IMO How someone can do on their first ever ranked completive match or competitive survival mode without ever knowing anything about the game IMO is a true test on if there is enough info in the ui also ensuring someone does not feel rushed with the time is also important to make sure they are also enjoying themselves and having fun.

the game is very complex and you don't want people to lose interest and get lost in that complexity.

[vernal forum]

anybody know if Illuvials have any base grit and resolve or do they all start at 0?

Also how does resistance work? I thought it was a % but im seeing titanor get above 100 on his resistances so that doesnt really make sense.

[gentle bronze]

Coaching is a major part of every competitive video game

I am a VERY big fan of coaching I'm not exactly sure why people hate on it so much?

[vernal forum]

This sounds cluttered even on my giant monitor.

[full light]

maybe if you are on a pro team getting paid ( LOL pro team for example) . Not for average competitive player. Its my opinion based on my experience in gaming Average competitive players will out number "hardcore" competitive players by a multitude so the "competitive" game should not be based on what a hardcore pro player deems "worthy" but what the average player will find un and engaging . It should also have mechanisms in play so that 10 " hard core grand masters" cant monopolize the top ten of every tournament or competitive mode It should be structure like mtg or poker .

[gentle bronze]

I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to say

Is your stance that the illuvium community should look down more on coaching for normal players?

[full light]

average player does not want to spend 1000 hours studying on $$$ when that information should be in game

[full light]

yes it should not be needed service or requiered

[gentle bronze]

I'm not exactly sure what you're getting at. For example if you want to play Top lane in league of legends and you want to learn how to do a cheater recall should there be a tutorial in game explaining how to do that?

[full light]

Its ok i don't wantto get into this discussion it will not be productive .

[gentle bronze]

Uh I'm not getting mad I'm down to see your point of view

This is an interesting conversation tbh

Because I'm not exactly sure why people look down on coaching. It's not like you pay someone thousands of dollars its generally like $20-$50 for a session. I enjoy them because I have the extra money and it's fun to work with someone who can show you things that you are not able to see.

I don't do it because I have to I do it because it's fun

[full light]

I tried to answer your questions . Im not sure how to reprase it further

[gentle bronze]

All love buddy

[full light]

to your credit your the first person civil enough to be worth my time to try to explain wish i could have done it better for you

[gentle bronze]

If you ever want to have a conversation about privately for fun feel free to message me

[full light]

thanks but i perfer to keep things in public

[zenith mortar]

We have more thorough FAQs and player guides planned for the future

Just imagine that there are things on priority list and for the private beta this wasn’t at the top originally

But def on the list

[coarse echo]

Coaching in any sport/game is not intended to teach people how to play. It's a service generally available for people who want to improve their game beyond what they could have learned or trained alone.

[zenith mortar]

Like I need a life coach

[tawny venture]

Coach Rich has a nice ring to it

[brazen quarry]

But won't get you far in the game

[tribal glade]

Dick is my life coach

[zenith bough]

You left Phyriox alone in the corner. It’s the top damage dealer on the enemy team, and should be addressed IMO

[full light]

I was actually referring to the in match UI more than faq and guides ( more faqs and guides are awesome to ) as it was one of the questions on the feedback form . You should be able to hover over anything or any square and know how that asset will affect the board ( affinity's weaknesses ect ect or what that square has the possibility of interacting with) just as if you had memorized all that info.

[full light]

awesome

[lyric river]

why is atlas never in the rotation i miss him

[brazen quarry]

We think he was too strong

[coarse echo]

Bugged, and nothing was patched recently, so it and other bugs will likely remain until Pb2 (wen?)

will there be a 6th try xD????👀

[brisk dove]

no it takes too long to get there ahah

[wraith terrace]

are there updates for PB? and if there is, how to get them?

[bitter skiff]

re-download the game

[wraith terrace]

thx!

[tawny venture]

Add another 4 times from me

[fervent barn]

Checkpoints will be a thing in PB2

[tawny venture]

Best addition since pineapple on pizza

[reef rivet]

What counters ryplance?

[dark scaffold]

flee mechanic xD

usually i just try to put most of my dmg on him, but he is one of the best units in the game so hard to deal with him 1v1

[zenith bough]

It depends on your goal for the wave. I use ranger to stall often, or direct damage to kill. Sometimes it’s better ignored, if it’s on opposite side of board from your tank/damage dealers

[brazen quarry]

Meh wave 17, I'll take it

[gentle bronze]

First try on the leaderboards dude

It’s really annoying how good I am at everything I’ve ever done in my life

[brazen quarry]

Hahahaha

[noble radish]

‘‘Twas working on a system that is really cool. Basically add some juice to the overworld.

Not available in PB2 though.

[gentle bronze]

Imo pb2 will be nice but the less you have to add to it and the less you have to spend hours working on it the better. Leave the real work for the main game.

My opinion doesn’t matter obviously tho 😂👌💯

[covert terrace]

A lot of what they’re doing on PB2 is heavily linked with the main game since getting the auto battler system right is critical

It pretty much is the real work haha

[gentle bronze]

ahh ok that's fair enough then

[tepid turtle]

we always need more JUICE

Hard deck today

I don't even want to play today. I'm not a real G.

[brazen quarry]

I try to play at least 1 game / day

[red hearth]

we gonna have some of overworld in the pb2?

[brazen quarry]

Eventually yes, but not at launch

[tawdry mortar]

Top G

Two coffees for you

☝️

[spark dagger]

I got a weird question. I presume Illuvial facts are meant to be for fun and not factual in terms of arena gameplay?

"Scoriox are immune to the heat and are able to digest magma. This lava-based diet has made their internal organs hard as stone, and their blood constantly boils."

This would make me think that a Scoriox going up against a sear with magma activated might not be harmed against the "molten ground" that magma illuvials exude.

Probably super dumb question but, MTG has me questioning everything I read ever since I learned that game LOL

[reef rivet]

minor detail that can be ignored... every game has that though... in valorant, phoenix (fire agent) should not be damaged (should actually heal) by brimstone's molly (fire attack: incendiary) as well...

[spark dagger]

I figured as much, but I like to be 100% sure before making content. thanks for answering 🙂

[clever basin]

did you guys enjoy playing the game for b1 🙂 ?

[robust surge]

Very much, I could just play it all day if I wasn't so busy with work

[clever basin]

nice so glad to hear, i'm new here

[clever basin]

what did you find the best part about it?

[robust surge]

Fun, addicting, beautiful, requires you to use your brain, all that stuff lol. I can plan the battle and sit back, watch them fight, so pretty chill in that aspect too

@bronze canopy streams hours everyday

[clever basin]

cool thanks i'll check him otu

[obtuse yacht]

Anyone have any links on how to get better at survival? I kindda suck at it

[brazen quarry]

It personally helped me a lot by watching other people play. There is content in #🎨〕community-content or you watch watch some Youtube games. We also daily have people playing the game on Twitch

[obtuse yacht]

Thanks mate

[brazen quarry]

Frikkin wave 16

[lyric river]

Anyone else having an unusually high amount of crashes today

[zenith bough]

If by crashes you mean deaths on early waves. Then yes. yes indeed I do

[clever garden]

works fine for me

in the past, every time the game crashed so far, it always was an issue on my connection

never seen such a solid beta

[zenith bough]

I always find my day in waves interesting/funny. Today it was 15, 10, 10, 10 and chrashed on 27... the pain

[umbral glen]

On my discord forum we turn people's names shyte brown if they start whining about things. Possible solution.

On other forums, every time somebody asks wen regarding a sale or an airdrop, I reply with "They decided not to do it." It irritates the mods though.

[rain coral]

lol

[brisk dove]

How did u even get to 27 today!?

[coarse echo]

He's a beast

[zenith bough]

By failing 10 3 times. 😂

It’s actually a bit strange. I find myself dying a lot on early waves compared to others (at least I think so) but once I get past a certain level, it’s usually smooth sailing

[safe valve]

As soon as you get enough Tank+heal in the board to life forever?

[zenith bough]

Yeah.Something like that. Haven’t figured it out yet

Would be fun to have more statistics to compare vs other players.

[knotty zephyr]

Anyone else notice that Adorius cheats? when he is on my team he waits like 5 min before healing his friends,opposite team he just heals every second..shits rigged.

Maybe it gets more energy somehow

[west plume]

i know,i cant explain how many times i have been screaming at the screen"fucking cast,you dont need to get on your back legs to heal just fucking do it"

[vernal forum]

I actually prefer Adoredo sometimes because of this. His heal casts way faster.

[knotty zephyr]

intense player

[molten jay]

In first 15 fights i try to kill him last. Think he gets more energy when u send rogues

There

Just got access to pb1 🙂 I noticed that I have on the right when im logged in the section "Illuvium account" and here I got a Level 32 offline Icon. Is that a friend of mine or am I that?

Hi Ben, just did my first few games. I had a hard time to understand the classes, even I read them on infoluvial and have some basic background from other auto battlers.

Even when I rightclick a Illuvial for more information, I was not able to get a quick hint, if that is a tank/dps/assasin, as when I counted it correct, I need to know 20 different classes.

[pale fossil]

Poor Titanor 🤣

[knotty zephyr]

hey guys! how is the deck today

[lyric river]

not bad there are some hard waves out there tho plz don’t beat 21 so I don’t have to play anymore

[umbral glen]

Lacking in tanks and dps

[quasi sage]

PB2 will be playable at the conference. Which means PB2 sooner than later!

[sly garnet]

Is there any video out there that explains the omega power bar and why sometimes you start a round with it already half full? And is there anything in PB1 that helps build up the meter?

[sly garnet]

Heck yeah!! 😁🙏👍🍻🎉

[reef rivet]

What conference

[quasi sage]

Some illuvials build their ultimate quicker than others. If you build up the hyper by playing the illuvials strategically placed against others you can build hyper which allows for faster ultimates i believe

[quasi sage]

Gold Coast Conference in Australia. The ILV team will be there handing out some goods

[reef rivet]

I think some illuvials just start out with some omega power. It might be a tool for the team for game balancing

[reef rivet]

When is that

[sly garnet]

Yeah I knew about the hyper effect. I've had the beta a while now but, my cousin just got in and was asking about it & I didn't have an answer for him. Wondered if it had been covered on YouTube by one of the fam? Ahh who cares.... PB2 nearly here! 🎉

[reef rivet]

Oooohhh that is soon. Howd you know pb2 will be out by then?

[quasi sage]

It will be at the convention event. Not available to us quite yet. The big thing is its in a playable presentable format.

[sly garnet]

Confirmed 🍻

[sly garnet]

Not going to lie, I'm a bit gutted about the sweepstakes part for the NFT because it'd be crap to miss out on owning it.

Holiday rekt! 🤣😢

[quasi sage]

Yeah im not too bummed ive already admitted to myself that i wont have every collectible in the ILV universe. I hope to gather tons over the years though

[sly garnet]

Good attitude, I'll take that standpoint too. More than happy to be here & experiencing this project 1st hand so early. Definitely can't catch them all if we're taking cosmetics into account too. Just having a chance to catch the croc hunter doka is awesome.

[fallen vortex]

Is 100 attack speed or 120 attack speed better?

[zenith bough]

120 is better

[wraith terrace]

i got in leaderboard!

[zenith bough]

well done!

[silent root]

What is the difference between Atlas , Caradulo and Grokkowater the 3 are Water + Bulkwar

the illuvial with the same class is equal ???

the illuvials with the same class are equals ?

[languid sparrow]

No, the Tier level also depend.

[silent root]

i have not the beta for test for the moment

other exemple Archie = Ador same tier

[languid sparrow]

Got a little trick if you want to have a chance to get the PB1, weekly Trivial Look at the event during the week.

[silent root]

What is the channel for the weekly Trivial ??

[languid sparrow]

Basic stats is to consider also

[languid sparrow]

Every week, there like (10 questions) related to Illuvium and sometime Rich the person in charge of the event just give PB1 access even if you did not answer correct to 1 question.

[silent root]

can't see this event ? where is it ?

where you see grokko is T0 and other is T1 ???

[willow musk]

Event? First I am hearing about this.

[languid sparrow]

Click my profile and Illuviary button it's on Infoluvial.io website.

[languid sparrow]

Come back on Discord monday or Tuesday there should be some event in which you can have more information date, platform (twitch or on discord, youtube, twitter) of where the event will be display.

[silent root]

ok, thx

Btw you can see many discord names paired to beta name on illuvialmaster

[opaque cape]

only if you inform them of your discord name

not automatically afaik

the deck today was too easy imo, finished too fast and now i have nothing to do 😄

[knotty zephyr]

congratz you always on top

[knotty zephyr]

already did i got all your illuvials from todays deck

[vernal forum]

Phyriox gets stretchy if you attempt to place him on G4udi.

[tawny venture]

Thoughts on today's deck? Waves 9 and 10 are tough

[zenith bough]

Think 9/10 were fine. Died on wave 5 though on first try though. 🤣

[brazen quarry]

I got to 15, probably gonna be kicked off the leaderboard before the day ends

[fallen vortex]

okay i been doing the maths and something isnt adding up

if 120 attack speed is faster than 100 attack speed in theory

adorius has the highest dps by 2 fold

[fallen vortex]

from basic attacks obviously

[dark scaffold]

think there is typo

ador has 60 atk speed

adoreo 50

and adorious goes back to 100 if you used infoluvial card

and i guess it should go down a little from 50 or at least stay at 50 @fallen vortex

[fallen vortex]

ah I see

[dark scaffold]

same with singe if you were doing them all

[fallen vortex]

what should singe be? Are the cards ingame better or would they have the same bugs?

[dark scaffold]

well flare is 100 and sear 80, so i guess 90 ^^

[fallen vortex]

okay ive done this (as a guess)

and i did 50 on adorius

[dark scaffold]

looking at this cards i think many of them have this wierd values

[fallen vortex]

eh well ill keep building and adjust when I need to

ive got max mins, averages for everything now, ill start building some deeper calcs tomorrow

[lean aspen]

Wouldnt it be better to wait for pb2? Lots of things will change, probably illuvial stats too

[fallen vortex]

Let's call it being prepares

I've built a decent structure. Changing numbers in key areas shouldn't break it. But rather enhance it

[lean aspen]

I see. Nice

[tawny venture]

Would your numbers still be applicable for PvP @fallen vortex?

[fallen vortex]

My skills are limited but im trying to build as many useful tools as I can for everything. With a current focus on 1v1 in terms of illuvials. Then to team compositions then to hyper layout

[waxen swan]

good work scoriox

[knotty zephyr]

my bad i was in the wrong channel.. crash on wave 20 feeling the pain

[turbid osprey]

no pain no gain

[knotty zephyr]

so true

[opaque cape]

man i hate wave 21 today

[opaque cape]

ignore hyper for now, its only useful on a handful of units like titanor/axodon

i also completely ignore synergies tbh, just putting in the units that counter the enemy board

[knotty zephyr]

im trying to get back to wave 20 but is crashing a lot today at least for me.

[opaque cape]

lower your graphics settings?

[knotty zephyr]

what are u using epic?
