[slow kayak]

thanks bro

[waxen swan]

will there be any illuvials in pvp that aren't in the team builder currently

[coarse echo]

probably not. Internal folks will mostly be observing and taking feedback at the start to let the players figure things out on their own, instead of swaying them one way or another.

[coarse echo]

not for this release. Team Builder should have all of them. But there are still more to come in later updates.

[tulip tiger]

You have some time to prepare

[zenith bough]

You could play under a pseudonym

Like

ItsMartini or something random like that

[coarse echo]

that would be pretty random

[warm widget]

Hi guys, just wondering, Im on the website, is the illuvitar disk how you purchase an illuvial?

[opaque cape]

no, its an illuvitar, illuvials wont be for sale, you have to catch them in overworld

[tribal glade]

I'm around

[vernal forum]

I thought we could sell our Illuvials once we own them? Or whales could just buy theirs? Isn't that the whole point of owning our assets as NFTs?

[smoky python]

Yes

Who told you that you couldn't?

[vernal forum]

" illuvials wont be for sale, you have to catch them in overworld" from above - that's good to know that we can buy them or sell them.

[stray gull]

Yeah, Smart Ass is suggesting that Illuvials won't be sold as a 'primary sale' from the DAO similar to how D1SKs contain Illuvitars.

They need to be caught in the Overworld, and traded on the secondary market.

[smoky python]

Yup once they are caught you can do whatever you want with them

[obtuse summit]

Any youtube videos to prepare for arena PVP? i suck at it and want to be good ^^

[reef basalt]

People are stingy cause theyre prepping for the tournament 😛

But there has been some beginner stuff made by @fallen vortex @drifting flax @vivid stirrup and @vivid grotto if I remember correctly.

[drifting flax]

Hahaha 😆
I have no secret tricks anyway but I have a few more videos in the works.

[fallen vortex]

Unironically I'm so busy prepping the tournament I dont have time for videos

[reef basalt]

check out @spark dagger lastest video she dropped something for pvp 101

[halcyon nova]

if you get up at rest you can be first .....lol

[halcyon nova]

it was a good vid ...she's a cool chick 😉

[velvet wyvern]

Yooo guys, are there any "meta" comps in advance? 😄 from the surv arena experiences

[smoky python]

Yes

[halcyon nova]

ah Ic this is where the action is I wonder why general so quiet your all selling your soul

[velvet wyvern]

I suppose nobody will share it to not give advantage on the first tournament 🤣

[west plume]

Everyone can have my Meta builds

[languid sparrow]

6️⃣

[edgy flower]

Just curious, in your tournament can any player participate, even who has early access to the new patch and therefore more info and time for preparation? 🙂
@fallen vortex

[west plume]

Is there a max signup?

[flat nova]

how do you always arrive to round 30?

[smoky python]

Getting to 30 is easy

Getting to 40 is harder

[west plume]

https://tenor.com/view/marvel-is-it-though-thor-bruce-banner-gif-14242312

[flat nova]

do i have everyday the same illuvial in arena? or they change?

[smoky python]

they change

[languid sparrow]

We would like to know your opinion on PvP Legends: Illuvium's Art Team Crafting Symbolic Victory Images.#1174305852006604831 message

[fallen vortex]

Yes technically. But its my understanding that the team will sit out on this one. So everyone will be on the exact same footing 🙂

[fallen vortex]

Currently we have a cap at 256.

[turbid osprey]

@obtuse summit @velvet wyvern You should go check out #1169004294473793597

Those are the best place to learn the game with others. One in particular, youll see right away 😉

[edgy flower]

1% for all, 0.2% for nature units :DDDDDD

maybe 2%?

[gentle bronze]

max sign up is 256 people but with 256 people there will likely be many players who dont show up. There will be another list after this one fills up for a "first come, first serve" to fill in for those who dont show up if we get to 256 players

[supple cave]

can someone show me all legendary augments?

[turbid osprey]

We dont have access to them yet, hopefully comes soon with the patch note

[opaque cape]

do i understand correctly from the announcement that if you submit your team you can only win a megadisk and the ilv prizes go to the CCs that are participating in the tourney?

ill make a bet that no matter what team @coarse echo gets he will win

[zenith bough]

I think this is most of them (2nd pic) #🚰〕leaks message

[stiff seal]

From what I understood.
16 team owners selected will receive a mega disk
Top 8 team owners from tournament will receive ILV price.

[opaque cape]

yeah thats how i read it too, but im not ready to expose my team for that prize so im skipping this one and tryharding the inferno tourney 😄

hmm wait no, as i understood it it's the players that get the ilv prize

[stiff seal]

Maybe @zenith mortar can confirm this.
Hello rich 🖐

[stiff seal]

Any alpha leaks on this 😅

[opaque cape]

he responded in general chat

[south glacier]

I found it hard to create a team in the team builder because it is missing some stats for each illuvial. And I could not find a website with updated stats for all the illuvials. So I did some tests myself and created a spreadsheet containing some additional stuff like energy gain per attack, damage formula and initial energy. Although some of it might be outdated for PvP it is still more complete than the team builder and could help new players to create their teams. If there are enough people interested I could share it here

[cunning fractal]

In between it gets hard 🤣

[turbid osprey]

We will get the patch note with all updated information in the coming days before pvp launch

[south glacier]

Ok. Can't wait to start testing 😄

[topaz lake]

Yes, that's going to be fixed in the next patch (1, 1.5, 2%)

[lilac grail]

are we still gonna need to sell the bonded unit to change bonding in PB3.
Reduce a tons of flexibility if not.

because with the cost of selling unit. it locks a lot the teams, and if we are locked from the bonded too. Don't really have to think about "counter" after placing units.

[latent moss]

how many mastery points per round is it in pvp?

[zenith bough]

#🎮〕illuvium-arena message

[latent moss]

thank you

[waxen swan]

no mention of that being changed and I think that's for the better

[safe valve]

most likely will stay so, so you have to make a thoughtful decision.

[hearty sleet]

what is the difference bewteen mastery points gained and aquired?

[fair hemlock]

Gained is per round. Acquired is the total amount you received during the entire battle.

Acquired = sum(gained)

[waxen swan]

^^

[coarse echo]

well said. notice it also says the word 'total'

[fair hemlock]

Yes thats what i said
😉

[hearty sleet]

I have never played anything like an autobattler before, but want to enter the conteset. Are there any good articles or videos on even where to start for deck building? I saw scoriox's video which was good but still a little advanced for me

[coarse echo]

yep. my comment was more in case there was confusion around the word 'acquired', which isn't super relevant. The main point of those two lines are to show how much the player gets each round, and the total points they have available up to that point.

[fair hemlock]

Watch the one by Artemis in #🎨〕community-content its incredible.

[coarse echo]

since round damage is related to how many points are alive on the winning board, it can help to have a rough idea of how 'hard' a hit one can take on any given round.

[hearty sleet]

thanks!

[tough flume]

is there a ftp version of illuvium arena or do you need to have illuviums?

although i guess there are free ish illuviums from tier 0

[fair hemlock]

The upcoming PVP is free to play. You can fight with T0s for free in the Open Beta version [Q1~]

[tough flume]

thanks

[hearty sleet]

are you referring to her video that was released yesterday?

[fair hemlock]

Yep

"The ultimate beginners guide"
Sounds perfect for someone new to Autobattlers 😉

[zenith bough]

I thought the hit after each round was changed from mastery points left over?

[tough flume]

are tier 0's mutch worse then other tiers in arena, a little bit worce, or are they all the same?

[hearty sleet]

yup lol. Im a total newb

[fair hemlock]

I think its the difference between roughly 900 HP for 25MP cost and 1500 HP for 50MP cost.
Since you can only have 8 units on the board, there would be a clear limit to the total HP you would have on the board. (Im just taking stage 1 of T0 and T5 and HP as examples. The same would be true for Stage 3 but with larger numbers. 1500, 2700HP orso for 45 and 100 MP respectively.)

So in the early game you would potentially be able to swarm the enemy. But during later waves, the higher tier units have a clear edge.

[worn tree]

Anyone kind enough to explain to me the diff between debuff and negative state?

[lilac grail]

it's not doing thoughtfull decision.
If you are loosing, you have to move unit to do better, it cost you master point, and a LOT. so it's just locking your comp.
At the current state of my analysis. without having playing it. it seem's that the flexibility and the skill expression behind your deck is totally locked.
You are gonna to plan to play with a deck, the same way with 1-2 adapt with weapon of rangers. but if you loose 25% MP every move, every sell. nobody gonna do it. and there will be 0 skill expression. just play your deck the same way every time.
just gonna wait until we can play the PVP to bring a constructive feedback. but from a first shot. hope some things will change

[safe valve]

It's a limitation as many others, you could say the Same to a Lot of limitstions 🙂
Why not Make a limitless Deck, with no removing/replacing cost this Stuff Limits me aswell in my flexibility

[lilac grail]

I agree, some things are planed to be able to mind game the opponent. so some things have to be defined in a context
But having some 2-3 unit free move round, or 1 free sell unit round etc. would allow us to make more creative deck and being able to turn and counter the opponent.

not sure if it's possible with a game that is 4-5 wave long

Just giving my feedback because I spent hours in the team builder. and what I see is : If I want diversity in early game. I lock a big part of my deck for. If I want to be able to go on more late game deck, i'm locked to play the plan..

[safe valve]

Absolutely... But... With having this costs, you might build your Deck more on a rushy side, so you can force the enemy to swap or replace or whatever... Or you might Set s trap your enemy wouldn't think of cause it's not cheap to do it and calculate your costs into it...

[vague karma]

what is the penalty of selling illuvials on pvp?

can i sell for 100% refund?

[lilac grail]

you selling a ramphyre to be able to place a rypterus. (In cost point of view). i don't see how someone can plan to do this and destroy his eco and it makes it win the fight diminishing 25% of your total power cap

75% refund

[safe valve]

Nice, haven't had time yet to spend hours for it, but definetly gona do it Next two days.
And yea, maybe a Lot get changed because of community feedback.
We can just stay open minded and try out what we get offerd and give them proper feedback afterwsrds 🙂

[vague karma]

got

it

[lilac grail]

yes. that's why my question for the bonding came for. It makes hurt to sell unit and replace it to be "more flexible" and lost 25 mastery point doing it.

you already spend place in your deck to allow this flexibility. it's double punishment

[safe valve]

I remember Ben or Kyle mentioning that "hurt" is absolutely intended 😄

[shadow lion]

whats the cap of max mastery points for the team builder?

[vernal forum]

Sure, but hurt for no reason is probably not intended. Say you are bonded and want to be unbonded. Currently you have to take the Illuvial off the board, incurring a 25% penalty and then place the same Illuvial back on the board at full price. Is this the best state? I don’t believe so. It’s clunky and unnecessarily punitive. Would you agree?

[safe valve]

I actually Like bonding is not for free, and for the amount of power you can get, 25% most likely gona be a cheap price for it.
And as mentioned above, because majority thinknits too expensive you could Make nice pivotal moves majority wouldn't expect.
But yea, i know nothing, haven't even tested teambuilder yet nor have i played or seen pvp 😄

[vague karma]

change weapons is 100% refunded?

[opaque cape]

its gonna be so fun and easy to play against you guys reading these comments 😄

most people seem kinda clueless

[lilac grail]

blabla

[vernal forum]

I believe this is true currently yes. Armor also and moving ranger.

[shadow lion]

guys, will mastery points be uncapped for pvp or whats the max limit?

[vernal forum]

200 max starts on round 7 I think

[shadow lion]

thanks for your answer, mate but actually I mean for the current event. when building a team, is it uncapped?

or let me ask differently: whats the benefit of having a team out of 8 illuvials (minimum) compared to a team with 28?

no reason to do this righttttttt

[turbid osprey]

More than 8 illuvials provides flexibility while reducing place for augments and armaments

[fallen vortex]

There is an 8 Illuvial limit to place on the board at any one time.

Although you would have some pretty insane freedom. You would ultimately run out of mastery spend in the later rounds

[shadow lion]

ahhhh ok, augments, weapons and suits take a whole slot each... ic

[fallen vortex]

yup

[shadow lion]

ah, just realized it is like daily arena but I can decide the whole loadout lmao 😂

thanks guys

Im a bit slow brained

[waxen swan]

you cant make it higher than 1800 which is the max amount you can get im p sure

[opaque cape]

sure you can? just put in only 100/90/75 cost units? 75x28 is already 2100

[waxen swan]

i mean you can but i meant in a practical sense

[opaque cape]

then its not the "max amount"

[waxen swan]

1800 is the max you can get in game the p sure part was referring to the team builder

[opaque cape]

in what game?

in the pvp you mean?

[waxen swan]

pvp?

oh its 1600 💀

[vivid stirrup]

does rhamphy+rhamphyre on the board still count towards fire+rogue+inferno+phantom synergy in pvp?

[turbid osprey]

Yes

[shadow lion]

what happens after round 10, if no player died yet? or is that not possible?

game continues with 1600 mastery points until someone goes to 0 hp?

[fair hemlock]

Infinity rounds but you will always deal damage so you cant play indefinitely. One of the two will win at some point.

[languid sparrow]

how dodge stats is working is it based on % of dodge ?

[shadow lion]

Are auto attacks of the weapon "Naboot" ranged or melee?

[languid sparrow]

Range 50

[cursive echo]

gyro has become useless?

[turbid osprey]

Yes

[turbid osprey]

His omega is harder to boost without final, lights, powers or saccharine normal augments. Less of a ramphyre and more a true slayer now

[hearty sleet]

once your illuvial is killed is your card wiped off the board?

[brazen quarry]

[smoky python]

[zealous vortex]

does Illuvium have mulligans? is it possible to not have an illuvial in your opening hand?

[worldly jolt]

Hands are not drawn. You play with your full team. like in survival mode

[dusk shell]

Hi, sorry been out for a while: i saw the announcements for the competition: where can i find info regarding how to build a team and whatsoever ? Requirements to partecipate etc ? ty

Think of it as a Tableau.

Woops. That's wrong

The codes aren't distributed any more. Will have open access on November 28

On Epic games store

[south ibex]

thank you

[dusty burrow]

Anyone have a beta code for me? I love autochess games (mainly TFT) and would like to try illuvium before launch on 28 november 🙂

[worldly jolt]

Nov 28 is still just for testing. It should be all of our first chance to try pvp. (Not counting the dev team)

[marsh bloom]

Illuvium Private Beta 2 Access

We've paused the distribution of beta access codes for now. Why? Because we're gearing up for the next big update! Our next beta release on November 28th is packed with significant upgrades across the board, including the much-awaited Ascendant Arena, our new PvP Mode.

In the Meantime:
Head over to the Illuvium page on the Epic Games Store and wishlist the game: https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/illuvium-60064c. This ensures you're ready to dive into the next version as soon as it drops. Staying updated is key!

Spread the Word:
Got friends who are gaming enthusiasts? Tell them about Illuvium! Let's get everyone talking about the upcoming release!

[worldly jolt]

I think everything was in the announcement. Let me know if there is anything specific that did not make sense.

[dusty burrow]

So there is no way for me to try out survival mode atm?

[shadow lion]

Binding the ranger to an Illuvial wont cost anything in pvp??

[worldly jolt]

Yeah that is correct. You’ll have to wait a couple of weeks

[dusty burrow]

ok thanks for answering

[coarse echo]

yes, pvp will be included, assuming you mean the Epic build

[turbid osprey]

No it wont

[west quartz]

while using builder anyone knows how to link ranger to an illuvial ?

[worldly jolt]

You can’t. I think the builder only gives you the parts of the team not how you choose to play them. That will be up to the player in game.

[west quartz]

regarding the announcement, are we suppose to input everything including illuvials and weapon for the early game or just the end game comp ?

[worldly jolt]

So the team builder is your entire list of possible things that you can play. It has the first play and the last play and everything in between.

[west quartz]

for the contest i mean

[worldly jolt]

When it asks about team strategy I would assume that you’d want to put in as much information as you can.

[west quartz]

so i input every single illuvial that has to be played during the whole game, from the first to last fight

[worldly jolt]

Team Strategy Description

Give a 255 character description of how you intend for your team to be played in PVP.

You build the team on the team builder. They will be able to see what you have. Then you provide some short instructions on how they should play your team.

I’d assume early, mid, and late game is a good way to describe the potential strategies.

What would you expect your winning conditions to look like? Are you rushing to win early? Or tanking hits early on to win in the late game? What are the most key units? I don’t really even know what I’d put down.

[west quartz]

well 255 character is very little to fully describe :p

[worldly jolt]

Yup

[shadow lion]

how many units can you substitute each round? 2 like in arena or more?

[opaque cape]

as many as you want as long as you pay

[shadow lion]

ohh what will it cost?

20mp per swap?

[safe valve]

If i remember right 25% of the illuvials cost for removing and 10% for repositioning

[shadow lion]

oof

[safe valve]

Not sure, it's late... Might be 15% for repositioning 😂

[shadow lion]

it's pretty hard to build a team then for the current event...

[opaque cape]

15%

[safe valve]

Cheers

[west quartz]

where do you get those info from ? 🙂

[coarse echo]

It's been shared many times by now. 25/15 percent fees for recall/move. Ranger is free.

[regal marsh]

This game lacks a tutorial. I have no idea what to do.... How to explore. And what to gather and build.

[stray gull]

Are you in Arena or Overworld?

An Overworld Tutorial is in Development

[regal marsh]

Both. Though even arena would need a small tutorial to get started.

Easier to figure out though

[stray gull]

Yes agreed

Work in progress 🫡

[regal marsh]

Overworld is total blank page. You start and dunno what to do.

So the core contributors fighting on the 22nd tournament are already known? I guess they are internal employees yea?

[zenith mortar]

Not chosen until the 21st

depending on whos in the top 16

[distant surge]

@zenith mortar I am number 1 tonight (for now) so would I be eligible?

been offline for a bit with some stuff so just now jumping in haha.

[zenith mortar]

Its Core Contributors playing with teams that the community builds

the game isnt out to public until the 28th

[distant surge]

ok I got you that is what I was thinking, I am going to make the some killer teams haha.

the ilv prize in the announcement is for whichever team builder wins right? Like I build the team that goes to 1st, will I get the 5ILV?

[west quartz]

shared where is my question

is there any in depth public guide explaining each mechanic of the game ?

[zenith mortar]

yeah

[thin cape]

When will rewards be introduced into the game? Not when it is released on epic right? But maybe in January?

[stray gull]

Once we have the Collections on L2 we can mint peoples NFTs/airdrop them and have them usable in-game

It won't be live for the 28th but likely well ahead of Open Beta

[thin cape]

Ok. Cool

But I don't understand what you mean about airdrop? What will be airdropped?

You say we can mint/airdrop peoples nfts.

We still need to get illuvials through the overworld, right?

Sorry. I'm a bit out of the loop

[distant surge]

I know we still got skins to mint from zero so I assume he is talking about that some too. I am obv not with team though.

[thin cape]

Ok, thankd

[brave grotto]

Is there a way of playing arena on mobile phones (android)?

[smoky python]

No

[zenith bough]

TeamViewer

[fair hemlock]

Mind if i send you my personal draft version in private?
Should be accurate but im unsure whether it should be more elaborate.

[brave grotto]

Can you send it to me too?

[languid sparrow]

What is Wounding going ? reducing healing from X% ?

[lilac grail]

Wounding is a poison but instead of dealing depending of max HP. it deal depending on how many health is missing in the unit that is affected.
I'm not sure it's working in PB2. never saw the wounding damage from my phosphorus

I tried to find thoses status effect in the patch that thoses was written but the half of patch notes are missing or not classified correctly in the website

[languid sparrow]

I see, does the Scorpion line have similar debuff ?
Does tha debuff can stack ?

[lilac grail]

no it stacks. it's different. Poison /= wounding

like you can have Frost stack + Poison stack + wounding stack + burn stack on you (I think)..

[languid sparrow]

So Wounding can stacks.
Poison don't.

[lilac grail]

poison stack

at max stack it normally reduce the healing efficiency

all is written in a patch note but can't find it again.

[languid sparrow]

Was the patch note shared in google sheet it it was more official on Illuvium website?

[lilac grail]

Burn / Wounding / Poison is dealing damage overtime, Frost is reducing attack speed.
And if i'm right, they all have an effect when reaching max stack. as the "Freeze"

[languid sparrow]

Where to report little error on the Team Builder ?

[gentle bronze]

Sorry if this has been answered already but did we ever find out when we will get patch notes? and is everything in the team builder "final" for when PB3 releases?

[west plume]

I was told Notes will come November 29

[hearty sleet]

Can we submit more that one team for the showdown event?

[bleak escarp]

How is 255 characters anywhere near enough to describe my glorious plan?!

https://tenor.com/view/explain-plan-theory-crazy-insane-gif-22079506

[south glacier]

Is that fee rounded up or down? For example moving a 70 mastery points unit would cost 10.5 mastery points. Is it 10 or 11 in that case?

[bronze canopy]

just type GL. its not like theyll read it anyway

porbably gonna be some sperg playing your build anyway NO OFFENSE OKAY

[worldly jolt]

No. One entry per player

[civic grotto]

,,Pure attack dmg'' does that mean that illuviual deals pure dmg every time it attacks?

[proven ember]

being worked on

But there won't be patch notes until things are final internally, and things are being tweaked slightly still

unlikely to be any significant changes to what you see in deckbulder - unless we discover something gamebreaking

will be very very minor if any 🙂

[west plume]

“Group all toghter” is less than 255 characters

[coarse echo]

any number with a decimal is rounded down, but it's 1 MP diff, and doesn't make much of a difference

[bronze canopy]

not with that attitude it doent

1 mp is the holy grail

will throw a run to save 1 mp

[bleak escarp]

It def matters, thats why it rounds down.

A tax to move your illuvial is pretty...rough

[south glacier]

I think it makes a difference for some units. It's bad to have 4 mastery points left that you can't spend if you move it for 11 points

[cursive echo]

@opaque cape

[keen wren]

Okay so is anyone else getting to like level 16 and getting kicked out totally. I keep having to go back and reenter (figured that was normal for a beta) but on TWO occasions when I was on my best run, I suddently don't have the option to "re-enter"

This is extremely frustrating as I know my team but I can't remember every configuration and power-up exactly. I guess I'll just have to start writing it down

[shadow lion]

changing the posi of the ranger is free you say... how about removing a weapon or an augment, does this cost mastery points?

[shadow lion]

anyone?

[vernal forum]

I believe it's also free.

weapon and armor, not augment - augment may need to be removed by removing illuvial from board, and factored into costs with illuvials per Ben below.

[shadow lion]

thought so too, just wondered if someone could confirm this. But I stick with that for nonw

[proven ember]

Augments are factored into costs with illuvials

[lilac grail]

What's priority on Battle Start. Between Siphon Matrix that reduce for exemple 60 Energy and Synergetic field that give energy on start.
Illuvial Start = 30 - 60 = 0 + 20 = 20 ?
Or Illuvial Start = 30 + 20 = 50 - 60 = 0 ?

[proven ember]

Additions first.

[eager portal]

You can remove as many units as you like per round, is it only 2 in pvp?

[proven ember]

No limit

[west plume]

i can give you a team

[hearty sleet]

Is playing arena now good practice for pvp or will it be completely different?

[west plume]

good practise to get a feel for the units.

[languid sparrow]

Have in mind Iluvials stats & some Omage will change as well.

[hearty sleet]

what is vamp?

[stray gull]

The attacker's damage (Physical, Energy or Pure Damage) minus mitigation has a % refunded to the attacker as an instant heal.

[hearty sleet]

so you deal damage and get healed at the same time?

[stray gull]

Yep

[stray gull]

In other games it's typically known as Vampiric or Life-steal

@coarse echo could i ask you about some pvp stuff? does steam get full water bonus? does omnivamp work on any damage caused - for example toxic syngergy dmg?

[safe valve]

Does omnivamp stack?

[turbid osprey]

Steam doesnt get full water buff (this was a bug in pb2.5)

Omnivamp stacks yes

For true dmg i would presume it works too but im not 100% sure

[vivid stirrup]

synergy dmg works on omnivamp?

[turbid osprey]

Im not sure about this one

[south glacier]

Do you have to place an illuvial in round 1? Or can you just take 100 damage and counter your enemy from round 2 on with your 200 mastery points?

[turbid osprey]

You can totally do that

[south glacier]

Nice. So what would theoretically happen if nobody ever sets an illuvial? Is it possible to end a game with a draw? I am just curious if that's a possibility

[turbid osprey]

Ive heard of 1 person not putting on illuvials but i dont know who wins if no one put anything 👀

If they both "lose" and take the extra dmg hit of the round, then its equal dmg taken and what if both players never play?

[south glacier]

Maybe someone can help us here? @coarse echo

there is no cost to ranger body or weapons when taking them back, so you can place those "for free" and take them back "for free" in round 1 or later as well

[turbid osprey]

Its flat dmg reduction. Grit being physical dmg and resolve being energy dmg

What is energy damage?

[reef basalt]

Ooh very helpful

[reef basalt]

But the 100 should start at round 1

[serene lance]

Bruh this tournament is gonna take ages if you do well lol, so many stages and players and bo3, double elim

should be fun

if each stage takes est 30 mins you could be playing for like 5 hours xD

[reef basalt]

Gonna be a 6-8hr tourney if you can get to finals

[languid sparrow]

Energy Damage is coming from Omega Ability of the Illuvials.
I think melee are doing Physical Damage and range are doing Energy Damage.

Can someone else double check this information ?

[opaque cape]

negative, energy damage also comes from basic attacks of psions and empaths

fighters + bullwarks + rogues do mostly physical damage with aa
empaths + psions do mostly magic dmg

composite classes like a rhamphyre rogue + psion does a mix

also some omega's do physical damage, like titanor or sear or terrorbird for example

[languid sparrow]

I see

[turbid osprey]

They dont do mix anymore. Ramphite/Ramphyre & Verminio/Vermilliare do energy and axon/axodon do physical but omega does energy.

Those would be your "exceptions" @languid sparrow and for the rest its as smartass says

[modest latch]

Where on the site? Give the direct link pls, cant find the table/

[fair hemlock]

If you use a composite Illuvial, do you get a stack for the primary affinities as well? I.e. Jotun -> Water + Air + Ice, but he only gains stats for Ice? or if i play 2 steam and an ice I'd have 0 water stacks?

[lilac grail]

0 stack water, 0 air for jotun

[zenith bough]

Not in PvP

[fair hemlock]

So if i want OP T0's i need to use stage 1/2 Illuvials

[zenith bough]

Only read first part

[fair hemlock]

and nobody cares about the amount of primary stacks when they get to the composites?

[zenith bough]

Over powered?

Tier 0 doesn’t have composite iirc

[fair hemlock]

as in, you had these water charges, 7 water -> 9 mana regen orso. If i want my T0s to have mana regen, i would need to use Water non-composite Illuvials

[zenith bough]

Yes. Only water affinity. No composite

[lilac grail]

Well as primary gonna be nerfed on composite in PVP (bug fixed) primary will be less important in late game but still good to have in early game

Or situational

[fair hemlock]

and there is no reason to have the primary stacks if you have composites right? Because you don't get points based on the amounts of primary

so if you get toxic, nobody cares about water or nature. Just toxic

the game was made terribly 2D since the first version 😄

"if you have a Fire team, you want to feel your Steam illuvial be fire" -> Let's just remove that.

[zenith bough]

It will matter for hyper and ranger bonding

[fair hemlock]

I'm disappointed is all. Does make the deck building easier. i was counting my water affinities from my steam and all that. Happy i got 7 in total!
can just scratch that now ^^

[lilac grail]

Exactly. If you have steam carry. You dont care anymore to focus on water or fire. You just add other composite or primary that you need to boost to your entire team. But you dont need anymore to focus primary just to max boost your composite

[fair hemlock]

and the ranger always has the primary be the non-bonded, and the Primary affinity is removed when you bond it

[lilac grail]

For me it gives you so much flexibility than before

[fair hemlock]

the buffs are team wide now? not just your Sear getting Behemoth buff, but also your Umbre? nice

[zenith bough]

I would assume your rangers primary is the weapon.

[fair hemlock]

buffs being team wide -> that's what i read from this "that you need to boost to your entire team"

[lilac grail]

Well water 3 gives your team 2 energy to your all team or 4 to your water unit.
In PB2 steam would have win 4energy regen because water was part of steam.
In PB3, steam would only get 2 energy as your entire team exept water units.

[thorny sleet]

Guys, where can I see what type of element have advantages to each other? (Or isn’t it relevant if opponent go with fire and I choose water like on Pokémon?)

[lilac grail]

I was more talking about primary bonus are teamwide

[opaque cape]

the new system is better

[fair hemlock]

so water primary doesn't get 4 energy regen because it's still steam

[opaque cape]

before if you had 5 water and you want to play composites youre basically forced to play a composite that involves a water element

[lilac grail]

You mean dominant ?

[opaque cape]

now you have freedom to do whatever

[fair hemlock]

yeah sorry

[zenith bough]

Water gives 4 to water. 2 to everything else

Dominant is only relevant for hyper and ranger bonding

[zenith bough]

https://tenor.com/view/freedom-gif-25824935

[lilac grail]

Im not 100% sure but i would answer not. Dominant is only for hyper system

[opaque cape]

primaries were too strong compared to composites

[languid sparrow]

If Monkier is having the Augment Vengeful Smite will the debuf of the augment be apply to all units ?

[opaque cape]

so primaries needed some nerf

[opaque cape]

good question, no idea

but since there is no more vengeful smite, no longer relevant

[lilac grail]

Mmh i would say not. Its damage détermined by the omega. Not that the attack "hit" other target

[languid sparrow]

How to you know there is no longer Vengeful Smite augment ? it's on Team Builder right now ... ?

[opaque cape]

he has no omega

[opaque cape]

for the pvp release?

havent seen anything that resembles it

[zenith bough]

There is: #🚰〕leaks message

[lilac grail]

His omega deal damage on a corner. But its not considered as a hit

[zenith bough]

Its a legendary

[languid sparrow]

Yep.

[opaque cape]

ah a legendary, didnt see those

[languid sparrow]

It's quick summary of all Augments Craftable & non-Craftable (Legendary)

[zenith bough]

Second picture in the message I send

[fair hemlock]

alright thanks you guys for the answers 🙂

[lilac grail]

For me the vangefull Smite dont activate on other enemy opponent hit by the omega from the monkey. I tried with the smite from PB2 and True damage wasnt applied to the unit behind. As its not a direct target.
But mechanic can be différent in PVP. But cant check without the game

[opaque cape]

ok i studied up on the legendaries, useful info, thanks

some of them are mispriced for sure

[thorny sleet]

Anybody knows this here?

[ebon flume]

Yes, I have not checked how accurate it still is but this chart should help

[fair hemlock]

There is a hyper effect -> If you are close to enemies you are good against for a prolonged period of time, you gain extra attack speed/damage crit rate or whatever.

It's unlike Pokemon that you deal 2X damage or 0.5X if you are bad against an affinity. That doesn't work in Illuvium.

This would be the affinity typing (image). @ebon flume sent a more extensive one. It's not needed anymore since only primary / Dominant traits count towards hyper.
Imagine it like this: The fight plays out for 40 seconds. After 15 seconds your units start to become hyper and gain like 25% attack speed and crit chance. That's a big thing. But it's not 2x damage.

(The hyper effect is based on the Class of the Illuvial. Bulwark Illuvials gain defence, Rogues get crit amplification or whatever.)

[thorny sleet]

Thank you very much. That helps a lot 🍀🙏

[thorny sleet]

good Morning guys, need quick help please.:
What classes do distance damage (like spell casters) and which classes do near fight damage?

[worldly jolt]

Maybe yall already knew about this. I must have forgotten

[worldly jolt]

Psion are casters. Rogues jump to back line and are usually melee and fighters are melee. Bulwark or usually melee. Empath are a mix of both.

That’s probably over simplified or not really accurate

But it’s a decent start

[thorny sleet]

Thanks mate 🙏

[languid sparrow]

Is there actually a time limit on each round like in survival? Where at the end damage to all units occurs?

[west plume]

I believe the email is already used

[gentle bronze]

Friendly reminder that we are 2 weeks away from the first ever Illuvium PvP tournament and there are only 68 spots left!

[vital cove]

I don't understand all of it can you explain to me please ?

[fair hemlock]

Just like in pokemon, there are advantages to playing strong elements against other elements. In this game they are called affinities.

Instead of a flat bonus damage to the enemy like in Pokemon, Affinities instead lay the foundation for the "Hyper" mechanic. Just like a wolf in a flock of sheep could start going crazy and slaughter everything, the Illuvial charges and starts rampaging when they have been closely surrounded by a certain affinity type for a prolonged period of time.

Earth Illuvials enjoy having Fire around them, Fire prefers enemy Nature etc. (like in the graph i shared before)

So, each Illuvial has a specific Affinity: The Stage ones always have the same one (their primary affinity) while stage two and three Illuvials sometimes have a composite affinity (higher stage = Evolution). The composite affinity is an affinity that is made up of a combination of two affinities like Steam (Fire and Water). The Illuvial, however, only has a single Dominant affinity. While their composite is Fire+Water, their Dominant trait is either Fire, or it is Water. So if you throw an earth illuvial next to a Steam Illuvial, you can either enjoy a positive effect (Earth beats Fire) Or your Illuvial's affinity actually benefits the enemy (Earth loses to Water).

So, I say enjoying... what does that mean?
When an Illuvial is surrounded by sheep (the element they are good against), they will build up Hyper points until they fill up their Hyper bar. Once the Hyper bar is filled up completely, they start rampaging around and dominate the arena. Any Illuvial gains 25% attack speed when they become hyper, and Fighters for example gain an additional 35% attack speed buff. That's 60% more attacks! On top of that, they gain armor piercing as well! (image)

With numbers:
Earth has a +2 points per second bonus against fire, while they have +1 against Nature, -1 against Air and -2 against Water. (we don't know the exact amount of points required to become hyper so let's take 100 points for ease of use)

So if you place an earth Illuvial next to 5 fire Illuvials, you hypothetically would gain 10 points per second -> Go hyper in 10 seconds. If the enemy has a water Illuvial as well standing next to your earth unit, it would get a -2 so 8 points per second instead.
Looking from the enemy's perspective, you have earth, so their Fire Illuvials gain -2 and their water Illuvial gains +2 points.

Hope that helped!

Will they be publishing randomized decks today?

[storm tundra]

im wondering if the illuvials themselves can equipment any sort of equipments

i see games like TFT and Paralleltcg, you can equip equipments on all the monsters and provides alot of stategic depth, so if illuvials can equip some monster items as well it would be really good for variety

otherwise people might just all play a certain types of monstyers

[stiff seal]

hello @storm tundra yes we have it here, we call it augments.

[storm tundra]

OH THANKS!!!

YAY

illuvials can equip them?

ok good good good

[stiff seal]

you mean on survival mode?

[smoky python]

I thought you said you played the game before?

[stiff seal]

yes, the ranger(humanoid character in game) can also equip variety of armors & weapons.

when they released the survival mode for the first testing period i played alot, then i stopped playing and kept up to date, i dont know if they added equippable items afterwards though

how do we buy illuvials for the illuvium arena

[opaque cape]

from people who farm them in Overworld on a marketplace, or gather them yourself from OW

no presales, no sales from ILV themselves, all playersourced

[vital cove]

ok but the overworld is not release yet ?

[onyx sundial]

Only in beta form, not hooked up to the blockchain or even arena (so progress will get wiped prior to the actual release)

[vital cove]

So where do you illivials will come from the 28th ?

[opaque cape]

you have access to all of them

[vital cove]

ok the 28th is OW and arena ?

[opaque cape]

until the game gets connected to the blockchain around end of q1 probably

[vital cove]

ok ok

so just a training pvp not a collection game for now

[opaque cape]

yes

but you can find out which teams you like and collect those first when the game releases

[safe valve]

and on release there's a big balance patch and you have no clue anymore what to catch/buy 😆

[opaque cape]

well lets say you like 3 teams, 2 of them get nerfed, 1 gets buffed, then you go collect the buffed one first

[safe valve]

yea, but what if you need to change the teams because other illuvials fit now actually better in than some you have picked in your team before.

Hello friends
Do you need to pay a fee to get into the beta game?

[languid sparrow]

It'S fee go on Epic games and add Illuvium to your which list 28th november it will be available to download and plz

[coarse echo]

All of the entries were scored, and the drawing is complete. The 16 teams have been selected. We're just finalizing the CC selection to play each team. There should be an announcement today once everything is ready.

[cursive echo]

I tried several I wonder what team you have😭

[opaque cape]

its not the team, its the player 😄

[latent moss]

How many entries were there, Kyle?

[zenith mortar]

about 140

[zenith bough]

133

To be exact.

According to what we just heard at least 😅

Are you playing @zenith mortar

[zenith mortar]

i just guessed off top of my head

knew it was in that range

and no

someone has to make sure things run smoothly

which not sure i'm the guy for that

[cyan olive]

you better selected mine

[near plover]

How can I add Illuvium to the list?

[cursive echo]

let's do a test, let's give your team a try?

[uncut comet]

in pvp if we wanna take a unit back do we get all mastery points back?

[opaque cape]

you pay a fee

[uncut comet]

do we know how high?

[vernal forum]

15% to move, 25% to take off the board.

[dark vine]

oh, good to know. Maybe different types could need different values for moving. I could see a higher need for a psion to move than for a fighter but these balance details can be discussed next month 🙂

[sinful echo]

how many entries were there?

[dark vine]

133

NOW I GET IT

I was looking into the deck like, this is strange... but synergies were dope... so it could work xD And now that you say it i see it

[worldly jolt]

I mean it would not actually place that many empaths since I put all three of some of those birds.

[eager portal]

@patent slate good luck with my deck, I believe in you🔥

Super fun deck today why is everyone stuck on 9 or 2?

already had the 1up wave but took checkpoint

wont be a problem tomorrow, slight adjustment for easy win

[smoky python]

And you didnt take 25+ minutes on it lol

[patent slate]

I will try my best 🙂

[wispy quail]

Okay ive been trying to figure this ut myself but cant

What chooses what illuvial to have their starting omega (white bar) to start with 0 or have it already half filled?

[smoky python]

Depends on the Illuvial

[wispy quail]

so each illuvial just has a different starting point

[smoky python]

Just like illuvials have different amounts of energy needed to cast their omega

Some are at 80 and some can be 150

[wispy quail]

Okay got ya 🙂

trying to learn before pvp lol

So whatever the energy is is their starting energy?

fuk this game is complex (yawn)

[smoky python]

Start with X Energy -> Cast at Y energy -> Go down to 0 energy

[wispy quail]

ty ty

next question lol

All the illuvials just say 100 omega whats the point of this?

also nowhere on the illuvial it says when it hits omega? just says its starting energy once placed

[silver nebula]

Hey guys can I verse my friend on arena?

[silent minnow]

can i have a Redeem a Code for Overworld Beta?

[dark vine]

Illuvium Private Beta 2 Access

We've paused the distribution of beta access codes for now. Why? Because we're gearing up for the next big update! Our next beta release on November 28th is packed with significant upgrades across the board, including the much-awaited Ascendant Arena, our new PvP Mode.

In the Meantime:
Head over to the Illuvium page on the Epic Games Store and wishlist the game: https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/illuvium-60064c. This ensures you're ready to dive into the next version as soon as it drops. Staying updated is key!

Spread the Word:
Got friends who are gaming enthusiasts? Tell them about Illuvium! Let's get everyone talking about the upcoming release!

[edgy bough]

Hey Sam! You registered for Inferno tournament?
Illuvial omega hits when the bar is full, is that what you meant? Pretty sure 100 omega is the power, which can increase with augments/etc. but might just be a placeholder till PB3

[edgy bough]

I missed it! Who won?

[smoky python]

1st: Edi
2nd: Grant
3rd: Vincent

[small oyster]

Did they change this: Titanor doesn't count towards earth count? Rhamphyre doesn't cout towards rogue count? I feel like it wasn't like this during PB1...

[fair hemlock]

Yeah they changed that 🙂

[small oyster]

How the hell we supposed to get 7 earth or rogue...?

[brazen quarry]

😏

[fair hemlock]

Get a single composite Illuvial, like Titanor. Then add 5 lynxes to your deck and an atippo and grokko. Then give your ranger an earth shield and you'll have 7 earth + 2 colossus/Granite.

You could also do like, Lura and volante instead of the grokko and atippo for an extra rogue buff as well.

[opaque cape]

titanor doesnt count for 2 earth

its just granite

[zenith bough]

he knows.😎

He is playing 7 earth + titanor + ranger ( earth shield)

[opaque cape]

but why

[fair hemlock]

Cuz he asked: how do we get 7 earth?
And i gave him an example of how.

Is there a way to get all the Illuvial, Ranger Equipment and Augment stats in an exle spreadsheet without copying everything one by one from the Team builder website? 😂

[edgy bough]

PB2 retires tomorrow

[halcyon nova]

So points deducted from enemy drone is based on your surviving iluvials if your the winner right ?

ah nevermind I thought I found away to game the system but forgot about the limited master points ........lol

[noble hinge]

Thought I would play one last time.
I felt like a monster. Especially after the hype video. He should never be in the first round.

[west plume]

And right before the weekend…could have done it Sunday nigh

Do not fret brethren, for this action gives birth to the greatest expansion yet, see you in 6 days.

Hi! I can't log into the game, writes need to update, but how to do it?

[safe valve]

Check #📣〕announcements
It's probably already shut down

[limber scroll]

Yes it is.

[modest latch]

I read, so it turns out that it will not be possible to play until November 28 in the arena?

[safe valve]

Most likely

[opaque cape]

so uhhh... what do normal people do with their lives when there's no arena to play?

[opaque cape]

i have some more cultural sightseeing to do today

actually now that i think of it, im going to an arena

a thing called "italica sevilla"

its where some Game of Thrones stuff was shot

where jon brings the wight to show cercei and dani shows up with her 2 dragons

[smoky python]

If you put in extra time after 8pm the next couple days can you start earlier once PvP hits?

sacrifice some time now for more later

[opaque cape]

yeah double time now, save some up for later

[eager portal]

when I move a unit from point A to point B, I am deducted 15% of the unit’s cost in gold, and if I move it to point C in the same round, I will again be deducted 15% of gold?

[vernal forum]

Negative. Within the round you can move it as much as you like for 15% cost total.

[languid sparrow]

So moving unit on battle board have a cost of 15% of the cost total ?

[vernal forum]

Yes and 25% cost to remove it from board.

[ocean junco]

In PvP beta, will there be a point /ranking system so that good players will be matched to good players? Good way to test the balance.

[smoky python]

Yes

[fair hemlock]

So only 75% refund

[edgy bough]

Giving credit where it’s due, congrats on your reign as god of pb2 👑 can’t wait to see the best players throw down in pvp while I learn the basics lol

[twilit storm]

and what about one unit with augs on it? do we pay 25% off from the total cost or only the naked unit cost and aug cost fully returned?

[edgy flower]

And the only way to reconnect ranger to the diff unit is sell the one it connect with and put it back?

[safe valve]

Yep

[turbid osprey]

Full cost including augments

[eager portal]

to sell a unit for full price, you just need to put an aug on it?))

[twilit storm]

that s baaaddd

https://tenor.com/view/facepalm-seriously-omg-really-embarrassed-embarrassing-gif-18809169

@eager portal

[turbid osprey]

No its always 25%, but 25% of unit cost & augments on it, if any

[vernal forum]

Very inefficient to have to sell a unit and bring it back to the board to change bond. Confident the Illuvium team will address this in the future, but right now? Bigger fish to fry. 5 more days!

[azure wigeon]

For example, I already equip 20 shields in round 1. In round 2, I have 100 MP.
If I use a 70 shield from the deck in round 2, will it cost me 70-20=50MP? Or will it cost 70 MP less?

[lethal widget]

What does the leaderboard look like now?

[languid sparrow]

Where to give constructive feedback about the game ?

[placid haven]

Hi all, is the team builder not up and running yet or is it just me?

[languid sparrow]

It's up if you in game go back to main menu twice

[proven ember]

Arena chat here for now please

[gritty wren]

do you have this bug when selling and replacing

that they dont appear

happens to me so often

[wide eagle]

Means he was much lower rating than u, works properly

[lilac grail]

winning 15 when i was 1850 against 1800.
And someone that is 1750 against 1850 win +214 ?. seem's strange

[languid sparrow]

I understand that Illuvium's game is complex, and it's not easy to find a balance in all of it. Here are my observations and suggestions after playing 13 games.

This is some constructive feedback. It's not normal to have a full team of FREE Tier 0 Illuvials that can beat a whole higher-tier team.
This needs to be fixed as soon as possible because people don't yet know how hard it will be to obtain higher-tier Illuvials in the Overworld.
So, what will be the point of doing OW stages 1-2-3 runs if Tier 0 can beat mostly all?

Illuvium will have an ecosystem, and Illuvials will be NFTs. It is crucial that the Illuvials' tier reflects their strength; otherwise, it will harm the economic system in the Overworld game. Who would want to do round stage 2-3?
There is something to reflect on.

Illuvium must take into account its entire ecosystem when building a game because it has an impact on several facets in the Illuvium universe.

Suggestions after playing 13 games:

◉ Make it so that when a player uses multiple Illuvials of the same line, it penalizes and reduces the abilities of Illuvials in that line, such as damage and duration. The more units of the same line he will be using reduce x %.
◉ Decrease the shield for the Empath class.
◉ Decrease the number of players affected by the staff's omega.
◉ Decrease the shield of the staff's omega.

Regarding the deck synchronization when the player is in-game and playing, if they want to change their deck, it's possible via the Team Builder. However, I noticed that to save the deck, you have to return to the main menu twice; otherwise, the deck is not synchronized with the Team Builder.

Deck synchronization suggestion:
◉ It would be interesting that when the player clicks on 'change deck' in-game, the decks are updated.

That's it for now for my observations and recommendations.

Thank you,
Linkky

[gritty wren]

bug when clicking too fast will lose points for legendary augments

[smoky python]

T0 doesnt beat all though

[languid sparrow]

Yep, not all the team but they are Tier 0.

[proven ember]

Thanks for the feedback. T0 are not intended to be a replacement for other units, but instead viable units that have a place in most teams. Our testing has not shown any decks comprised of significant numbers of T0 units that are dominant vs other decks. We'll keep an eye on this OFC but I don't believe T0 will be causing players not to chase for other Units, but if this ends up being the case then we would address.

Playing units of the same Lines are already heavily punished - as they don't gain Synergy bonuses from additional units in the same line, should a line become overwhelming and see frequent play it would typically be because that unit is overtuned and needs to be nerfed.

[languid sparrow]

I fought again a teamcomp of Doka (disarm) & Drokko (Aoe stun).

[smoky python]

It's fine but not that great

[clever garden]

Super impressed with PvP so far.
Any plans to have mobile support ? This would be super cool to have. And would attract significantly more players, many of which prefer mobile.
