Anyone know if the omega of stabbin have an impact or if 0% omega = 50% omega
Nope, stabbin has no Omega scaling, so 0% Omega = 300% Omega at the moment
Thank you
Debuffs = applied based on current value (example above)
Buffs = applied based on the base value (same example as above, but 25% from 100 applied 4 times will get you to 200 AS).
so you can in theory bring down to 0% a stat with debuffs
We had a bug affecting some of the augments and the way they worked when using multiple of the same type.
This will be addressed in the next patch 😁 If you still find odd behaviors, don't hesitate to report them through CS, please
How do you find the S3 lynxes? Are they meant to be so OP ?
Technically, yes, but that will require a lot of sources of the same debuff. You eventually reach a point where 25% of 5 means almost nothing.
alright thanks for the input!
Anytime! 🫡
Why would I report them through counter strike?
@thick estuary gg 👀
7/8 ranked
How does the point system work for ranked gauntlet?
its wip..only flat numbers so far (you see only your score)
Ranked Gauntlet 5/8 come on in!
7/8
@hollow orbit 6 psion 🔥
and gauntlet could be less random and with a larger pool of illuvials. it's hard to collect and it's not clear how many of what illuvials others have. what to collect for yourself. And too random augments. at least give the opportunity to roll augments
Yes I agree its overly random. Changes are coming to Augments, but I agree expanding the pool could be good, but its just a symptom of the inability to scout
hahah gg! even with the 200 OP rhamphite double omega hitting your whole team still was that close
There is randomness and improvements can be made but when the same people win over and over or make top4, I would not say it is too random
And it's not that hard to hit a stage 3
Gaunlet of 4 worth considered
If you force one comp, augments can feel random but if you adapt it feels fine. Can't win every game, sometimes enemy gets a very good combo
Hmmm I get what you are saying but like I'd guess theres a 20%+ differential in performance if Lifestorm comes up
And with like 4-5 Augments max before the end of the game, you have very little control. I'd say 50% of the augments are garbage, 40% are usable and 10% are absurd. Which means if u hit 2 absurd augments, 1st or 2nd. Hit all garbage and its bottom 4 places and so on.
Their balance is much better than they have been historically. But the lack of options and limited quantity received, makes any minor imbalances feel much bigger
Lets say the winstreaking is most important in the first 10 rounds. U basically have 2 augment rounds to get a broken augment to establish that, which allows you to snowball.
When the 1st and 2nd place is decided in the first 10 rounds its bad.
Lets take 1 augment as an example, 2% attack speed on attack. A regular augment thats better than a major composite synergy thats hard to acquire. At what point does that diminish the Illuvials themselves?
I don't think it diminishes the illuvials as certain illuvials are best suited to use some augments than others.
So when I am playing, seeing a Squizz appear in the shop is not nearly as exciting as seeing an Augment I like. Maybe that's just me, but getting a good Augment feels more impactful when I play
The power level of augments could be tuned down and have more of them but it's not that bad
If I have visionary vanguard i'm very excited seeing phyri
Maybe its not that bad idk. I just know it makes the game less compelling when I play it, but its a personal take on it.
Illuvials choice and augments choice go hand in hands
Whereas in TFT its the opposite. You find the Phyri, then you decide what to merge your items into to suit that.
If you get multiple large rods, you will not look for an ad team
Yeah but u still get a wide variety of merge choices. Some tanky, some mage dps, some supportive
I think the excitement of getting a good augment is crucial. Feels good to me atm, as in everyone is almost guaranteed a few good ones. In saying that some could do with a nerf (tho i predict the community would be split on whats OP and therefore kind of proves its not as bad as we think)
can see your point here. I just remember the worse patch for me in acendant was when augemnts were weak to make illuvials feel more important. Made it more boring imo even though was probs more balanced
I agree if u nerf the crap out of them then the game would become more stale. But if you increase the Augment quantity, and the control then you can mitigate the problems with imbalance is all.
I've not once gotten any of the good augments, and I can tell you that feels bad
I am yet to get the 2% gain or lifestorm
It feels really really really bad. Knowing its impossible to get first place in that match feels garbage
what lifestorm provides?
Free win
think its health regen and damage based off that regen
With a base 100
Better than every Legendary Augment combined imo hahaha
well i just beat zodd with him using it, did seem very good i didnt even realise till looking back haha
Imagine if he didn't have it
but also he might claim the 80 omega power on my rhomphite needs a nerf
with 2 omegas in the first 5 seconds
but yea cant argue it needs a nerf. I just dont mind these op augments i guess haha
i think nil already said they are tunning down the attack speed ones
I don't mind a hilariously dumb augment. It just feels too bad when you don't get them, as long as there's more control its fine
tried 6 fire yet?
Havent much since the patch
Was my favourite beforehand
My T0's haven't really matched up well enough so far
and I dont think ive ever seen more than 1 Chucco lol
they seem rare for me too haha
Hi I’m trying to build a team for gauntlet but I keep getting this message on team builder site when trying to save team. Ooops Action couldn’t be completed, please try again later??
I’ve got 50 selections, I’m logged into passport. Tried it 3 times….. what’s the trick or wtf am I’m doing wrong as I’m trying not to destroy my keyboard 🤬
FYI this is not testnet, normal ffffing net incase it only works on testnet
Do you own all the illuvials, weapons and suits? Not shopping cart behind any of the items in the summary tab on the right?
Also that you have the all stages of the illuvials
Yes i own them all, for any stage 3 iluvial i made sure i have stage 1 and 2. I did add about 4 stage 1 tier 5 but I did
Not have stage 2 or 3 if that’s the problem
just capture your deck and post here
Ok will do, out at moment as I had to walk away. can you have a stage 1 tier 5 illuvial or you must have all 3 stages as that might be it?
Do you have to have a total of 50 to save or can it be 45?
Sounds like I need to remove the 4 tier 5 stage 1 illuvials and that might fix it….thanks
Don't think that's the problem. Do you have at least 1 armor and 1 weapon?
in gauntlet ranked
yea when will this end
im with thanatos ilv / zadkiel and others and were at rnd 37 .-. hp not decreasing
we had one game over round 90, i think @fallen vortex had recorded it.
scoriox have u submit the video to anyone in charge?
Yeah I added 2 suits and 3 weapons I had.When I get back from the local I’ll have another crack as it can’t be this hard… most likely I’m the problem
Hmm strange yeah. Btw I don't think you need a team for gauntlet, only for ascendant. Unless you want to play that ofcourse
Is there a limit of rounds in gauntlet? I am in a bugged game where nobody is losing health anymore 😄
Not yet. I did inform nil of everything tho
People will crash out eventually. They will resync for a few rounds and get knocked out
The most stable connection/PC wins
I am in round 93 now
Just letting it go by itself
I got to 99 before my game crashed
Maybe 99 is the max
I got so far might as well see what happens at 99
No I think. The. Others went beyond it
My game just happened to crashh
Streamer doesn't have the best pc?
First crash ive had since arena patch
My 3080 and i9 9900k couldn't handle it
Yeah was just kidding
You can play epic games with a steam deck?
in round 100 now
Ayeeee good luck
I surrendered now to get out
Do you think illuvium OW will run on a steam deck? I don't think so, as far as the game is not optimized for steam d.
<@&795142782133207063>
@topaz lake could you let us know how dmg calc works in gauntlet? something like t1s1 unit left alive = 1 dmg?
Tbf, the game doesn’t seem to be optimized too well.
Even on high specs it runs weird. I’d really like to learn why or at least have this dealt with to a degree
How much do council members get paid monthly?
I can run it with my 1070 so don't think it's too bad tbh
does anyone know the exact number of illuvials per line in the pool in gauntlet?
I'll take this one. For questions like these, you can ask me anytime.
I have attached both the damage formula and the number of illuvials per line.
Sometimes in the near future, I want to make a public document that everyone has access to, so they can easily have this kind of information at hand, until we get a proper wiki or something.
Will be fixed in the upcoming patch
Finally have some down time. Been playing some gauntlet late. It's fun.
Few feedbacks:
RNG is def needed for casual gaming. Helps normalize the chance of inferior players winning any one particular game, hence more enjoyable gaming experience.
Just brainstorming here. No clues if it's feasible or maybe it's being developed already. It will be cool if there is a lock and capture system within each match. You can lock up ur core team illuvials. The ones that are unlocked, the opposing teams can spend token to capture yours. (Crazy idea probably)
Preview. You can preview next slate of illuvial u will get. It shouldn't be exact illuvial that you will see next slate, maybe just what affinity and/or tier illuvial u will get.
I just think it will be even more addicting if players have more agency into gameplay.
@supple beacon when i saw titanor i knew i had lost the game 
I love the gauntlet mode, really good, zero risk, you enter and you fight easily, everyone validates but I miss creating teams for the ascendant 
like my friend always say....
GIT GUD
one loss after 20 win streak..not too shabby
i thought it auto put an extra illuvial on the board if you have the space?
it should do.. its been doing it for me
not always..but often ye
sometimes it just do not tirgger and you play with 6/7 even if you have one unit on the bench..ready to be deplyed
Had it fail once but not too bad
Really enjoying gauntlet right now especially as it's a lot easier to find a game. @umbral oracle wen magnetic remover?
I was more focused on Arena. But I do have specialised knowledge and know the optimisation is progressing well. After that it shouldn't be a problem. I have played Elden Ring at 60fps on a Steam Deck
People say 'high specs' when they are referring to 'good gpu'. The downside to weak optimisation tends to be that it affects a cpu bottleneck way more than anything gpu related.
Hahaha doesn't matter, gf wouldn't let me use that for a Steam Deck 😦 We doing mortgage tings
For the shared pool, Does a Rhamphyre count as 9 Rhamphy? Or 0 Rhamphy?
it would be cringe if it counts as 0 rhampy
@winged fox
ddosed u at last fight xD
hahah ok
I have the same thing))
wow u both ddossed each other. who wins 😄
who won, my guess is brewcrew had some rly nice augments there ;d
ahhh that ranged templar rekted me ;D
I gave up) gg
wowz gg 😄

1 More question. How does it treat tiru and grilla?
9 rhamphy of course
Sweet cheers
What is the gameplay of the third season?
aiming for ow illuvial combat
Not for Season 3, much later in the year for that, if not early next year
gauntlet anyone?
We're going to start working on the 1% 's in the next couple of months. It will start to become really polished
As others have answered, it is 9 Rhamphy
If you are talking about the Little One/Clone - they have no effect when calculating the damage. Only actual Illuvials are taken into consideration.
cmon peoples we need another 4 people for a gauntlet match. I may even let you win 👀
cannot place anything in gauntlet ranked.. no enemies showing I just lose health slowly... wtf
reconnect
that is awful though.. I had the first loss after like 5 seconds
reconnecting worked though, thanks!
flish is a cheat
1 match error code 403 more than 12 times, please help me solve this problem
Perfect thank you
gauntlet ranked 6/8 pls join
Been alot more reconnect issues on the last patch,trying to provoc the error but havent found anything yet
@wide aspen if a player loses are his illuvials go back into the pool?
Yep
also at most of games have:
- game crash - crit error
- freez start of round - nothing happend it 10-20 sec, have to alt+F4 and start game again to fix
- all game freez and even alt+F4 not help, have to use task manager to close game
- 901 error - have also restart game
at lest 1-2 times in every 2nd game something happend.
hope team know about this problems and work to fix it. so Soon i can start play without all this problems

Someone know are tier5 emotes more rare then tier1?
Please tell me that gaulent ranked mode is not leavianthan ranked, or is it?
Its normal Gauntlet
GG @open ibex
GG !
I want to know what Patch B looks like so badddd
this new change to the revenant class is a bit frustrating, seems like it's always the little one getting the shields...
is the 'lowest HP Ally' based on their life % or their current life number?
It’s typically number and not percent I hate it when i assume incorrectly
Says % in patch notes
Oh wow
% makes more sense imo because it means your actually getting damaged
Yes it does

There are still improvements to be made but so far I've had a blast playing gauntlet (except when it crashes)
Thanks to everyone and especially @worn tree for making Illuvium fun!
I had some doubts before but now I'm reassured that we're going in the right direction
for me its the opposite, i have more doubts than ever, but lets see whats next on the menu
too many things to list but yes i did complete the survey 🙂
Awesome, they need all the feedback they can get to make it perfect.
@viral marsh missclicked out of field the dualeph
just give up

still die fast. snake doing same dmg
You have been in the Illuvium discord for 8 days. If "ever" means 8 days... Sure!! Hahahah 🙂
Lol, didn't even notice that.
Good Eye Nil
Any chance we can get A Mod Badge ingame?
Asking for a friend
im usually on telegram, joined discord server recently to see what is here, i am playing since ascendant was active
1 more ranked guanlet
I have more doubts than ever as well.. Feel free to check how long I've been in the illuvium discord
We can't use emotes in gauntlet yet right? Cuz no matter what I press on my drone I cannot get one to pop out. They are assigned, I last tried on gauntlet ranked.
Press "E", works for me 😁
Ahh, I'll give that a go later 
I've been left clicking, right clicking, alt, shift, ctrl clicking that drone for so long 
Whos playing gauntlet
GG Lars. No worries, I enjoy the emotes 🙂
@gloomy ember hey, i dont know if it's you, but can you share your arena team please ? I want to test it !
Any idea why the game just breaks every 30 minutes or so?
Like, nothing is clickable and so on
Same few hours later
You can't move your Illuvials?
It was the ascension of squid. It persisted through restarts until selling and rebuying him. Training mode btw
Yeah, there is a bug with Stage upgrades on the bigger illuvials.it needs more space than what the hex tells you.keep more space between them and it should be fine for a quicknfix
ok time for me to start winning some gauntlet games... be careful today guys I mean business!
ranked gauntlet, need 2 more to start
im in that one!! dont hurt me 😄
ive been playing so bad recently
lol
go easy on me
haha ditto
Sorry

Hey guys, heres an idea-feedback to remove the ability to queue with other people in ranked
whats the difference from gauntlet ranked and gauntlet leviathan?

@bronze spire that psion team was disgusting 😄
it was the broken double attack speed aura augment
oh i see so you cheated 😛
but the team is also very good haha
I had no idea why i was getting wiped so severely
basically yea haha couldnt say no to it
which augment is it? you know so I can avoid picking it....
not sure what its called but its 25% attack speed to everyone within 25 hex
oh ok cool. Hopefully il get a few more wins now 😛
i think the bug is only when having 2. I pick it because i think its good on its own anyway
but yea if you get a second its free win
yep haha, im fairly sure its one of those bugs thats ok to abuse if you get it
Hey @worn tree , sorry to tag you, but i remember you said to do it if we have any questions
Can you disclose how many illuvials of one kind are in a pool? And if someone sells them or dies, do they return to the pool?
Yes, Illuvials do go back to the pool both on sell and player elimination
Thank you
This means only 2 people at max can get a stage 3 of the same illuvial, except t4 and t5 where there can be only 1 stage 3
make it triple
this gauntlet game seems broken :S
@dawn isle is your game bugged?? im not losing health when i lsoe?
One of my games a guy got down to 1 health and then he didn’t take any more damage after that. Was pretty funny because he’d lose, but win.
1 guy has died now but think its a disconnect... I rly dont wanna have to quit n get 7th 😦
I have predator on my behemoth jotun now 😛
Yes, this happened to several people yesterday. No damage, extra augments etc. Bug report it, I did already.
yeah i have. What happens with the game though?? do we just need to surrender or does it eventually finish?
Yes, we have to surrender, the game will continue to loop.
if I surrender now will it count as 7th ?? 😛
I close and restart from the launcher to make sure it's cleared. Not sure what happens to ranking points, I'm so low atm it doesn't matter to me!
i might make dinner and see how many are still going lol.. my team is pretty powerful atm tho 😛
Now everyone plays psion empath on gauntlet
I wonder if we will ever find a balance
If everyone tries to get it Noone will get it
Empath Psion's strength is that it can level up quickly at low cost, and its progression is unique.
It is also very important to have a specific atippo. Also, the Templar Fighter composition is very strong,
I personally think it's good balance. (Except for some AS-type Augments)
I lost the game with four tier 5 and three tier 4 against four tier 0 
Tier mean nothing in this game
Bulwarks are much too fragile now ...
when playing ascendant leviathan do you need stage 1-2-3 illuvials for stats? or you just need stage 3 illuvials
Need all 3 stages to play third stage
7/8 ranked
there is a way on Illuvidex to see what I have sold? tried to look on the history, but there's only the minting and burn
I agree i think its great atm except for the bugs. Rogues are the only thing that feel a bit too underwhelming atm
how much elo do you usually get for a top 1 in ranked gauntlet ?

Good morning all.
I made a new feedback ideal that I think would be great for the market in buying and selling.
Yesterday it took me from 3pm - 8pm to spend 50$.
1,5 hour searching for illivials but since I was opening multiple tabs to look at mons multipliers, so I wouldn’t lose my place in the web browser, my account got locked for a good bit. I was right clocking then say open in new tab 1-20+ tabs at a time.
Also, I have to use 2-3 sites just to find the Mon with the stats I want.
I want to spend money and have to many hurdles to do so. That’s said, illuvidex needs a partnership with trinix’s website or just bought out.
https://discord.com/channels/760344898200666112/1300087499087024148
I thought with battle boards, you would play on your opponents board sometimes? I don't own a battleboard and have never played on one yet. On TFT you play on opponents boards all the time. Is this the plan for the future?
Illuvipro ser, faster, cheaper, gg. @left tartan
I’m web 2 and will never connect my wallet or email to 3rd party services in crypto not approved by illuvium itself.
You dont have to connect anything for illuvipro
I havent tested the illuvimarkt but from what i heard illuvipro is better and much more affordable
Or you can just use the Scoriox extension and have a quick overwiew of illuvials on the market or in your wallet
@mighty tulip gg 
gg man, fancied trying something off meta. Wildfire is pretty decent tbf
I didn't have time to place the illuvials properly, big panic to use my golde ( templar still strong)
6/8 ranked
Yeah I levelled to 9 for the cling. Not sure if it's the templar or the dust plus Blotto. That's a lot of blind/charm to deal with 😅
come on to LEVIATHAN
got it i'm in👍
Leviathan my friend
I want them to remove the 3 team que from ranked the amount of win trading that takes place amoung the guilds is CRAZY , that can't be what they want our e-sport format to be if it is then i'll just start selling all my stuff now that is crazy watching people in first that are clearly removing all their illuvials from the board so their team mate doesn't lose elo is silly )
thats not great,good thing the elo will be reset
before season 3
make sure to make a Bug report ingame
Still going?
I just want to clarify that it is not a "Team" que, you just que together with other players, but you are not in team with them you are still competing against them.
What you are describing has nothing to do with the 3-player lobby restriction. It can be done by getting in the match solo as easily, because there aren't a lot of players at the moment. It really doesn't matter if the players start in a lobby 3 together, or if they que separately as 3 solos - they still end up in the same match and they can still do the thing you are talking about.
Furthermore, this is exactly the same format that TFT and Underlords are using. It can't really be abused as you get matched with 5 random people too. Yes, you may boost your account a few rounds, but while doing so you sacrifice the other accounts - they will lose health fast so the other players also stay longer in the match, essentially lowering your overall chance of placing high, as they also get stronger.
The real issue is with the fact that our playerbase is not too high at the moment, so people can just easily get in the same match every time, regardless if there is a max 3 players per lobby restriction or not. Once we get more players rolling, this shouldn't be possible anymore (just like it never happens in TFT or Underlords).
But again, if people are doing what you are describing (2 people intentionally losing rounds against 1 person), then those 2 people will be at a massive disadvantage as they sacrifice Health, Streak Income and even bench management. Taking this in consideration, those 2 people should really not get higher than 6th place, they are not only helping the big account, they are helping everyone.
Yea i think so, i m 6th on leaderboard…but is a flat point distribution, not based on elo!! I think this is very important
The ranked system should take into account the average lobby rating too and modify the rating received accordingly (not by much, but it still should not be flat). I'll investigate tomorrow and see if everything is alright with it
So the plan is to have the same points rewards by position, but the lobby should be created with people who have less or more the same elo?
Rewards are not (or at least should not be) flat - there should be a flat value that is then affected by the average lobby rating (for example: average lobby rating > your rating = you get more points).
As for lobby, it also has a rating limit yeah. It starts out small (so if you are 1200 rating you'll only get matched with people that have 1150-1250), but as time passes the gap widens so you don't wait forever (it widens slowly in ranked modes).
Okok perfect thanks for the info😄
Community all agree with you, go shoot your 👍
The probleml is lack of players of course and maybe the season 3 will drive even more players in but when you can have the top 3 players in alobby and mutiple people in the lobby at 900 or so why does it matter. Maybe put in a limit between elos in a single party so they can' have trash elo accounts boosting a single elo account. If there is going to be an elo reset before season 3 starts that would fix a lot of issue we have had so far. The average lobby strength compared to YOUR elo should be the calculation so i'f i'm in a lobby thats much higher than my elo i should gain move points for a postive finish , but and loose less for a negative one. But yeah seems flat points are being used now not elo
Wen Patch B doe
Yeah it definitely needs to grant elo based on lobby strength. I am not sure if 'average lobby elo' is robust enough, but its definitely the bare minimum required.
Eg if the lobby strength is really low, but you came in a position above someone much higher than you, that should still be accounted for.
leviathan arena pls
Is this still the correct gauntlet pool in the latest patch?
2more rank
@thick estuary on the last match is’t bug? Your hp didn’t lost when lose, and mine it’s not
Is’t possible to add something like this? There is an extra slot for the deck on prepare match if the deck is full , it’s really helpfull specially when going roll some illuvial but the deck is full @worn tree
I want a button to ban opponent's emote.
I just turned off the sound in the game.
nice idea
I only use Emotes when it is appropriate and only once per match
Maybe two depends on who I play against
A rare occasion 3-5 times
Emotes are cool. I'd wish people would use them with me
Will do ser. Just wish they make them a lot bigger and more in your face.
I think they had a similar feature in dota underlords, not sure if they removed it. where you could place more illuvials in the board to open up your bench more while rerolling. then when the round starts those units would get sold or put back on bench.
it gave some more skill expression but at a trade-off the game being more confusing and clunky
i like tft's fixed board and bench limit better. it's cleaner and straight forward
It's not clunky if there is some augment like think fast, but gauntlet didn't have that so the game more similar like the dota underlords, or magic chess(mobile legend) on mobile instead of tft
I only use them once every 50 or so round, but when I do, I spam the shit out of them
I have a Lynx Noob emote i really want to use, but just feels wrong to use it when I decimate someone.kinda saving it for Rich.
isn't it lovely we have a community manager who can take some friendly banter? 😄 love that guy
Rich is the GOAT
Jeremy and Kieran have been on the receiving end of that one from me. 😅
In my 15 years of high-level competitive experience, I have never once seen an exploitable system go unexploited. You're right that it can be done even in solo queue, but we shouldn't incentivize it by making it easier. Instead, we should be more severe and speak against exploiting while discussing ways to prevent it.
What you are suggesting is that people won't abuse the system because you don't believe they can. That's essentially inviting people to exploit the system because, instead of providing clear guidelines, you leave it in a gray area.
The biggest problem, in my opinion, is that players can create fake accounts they don’t care about. By using these accounts, they can pretty much always assure they can place above them. When trying to achieve a high rank in a ladder based on average lobby rating, the greatest challenge isn't necessarily achieving high placements, but rather the few games where you get a low placement, as these set you back significantly. If you have two players consistently placing below you, it becomes much easier to rank up, and that's why it's easily exploitable.
From my perspective, it's so obvious that the potential negatives outweigh the potential positives of this system. In my opinion, this is so clear it shouldn't even be up for discussion. Just remove the ability to queue together in ranked mode and start thinking about how to prevent it from happening in solo queue instead. There is also a post in the feedback ideas about it that currently has a 25-1 vote in favor of removing it. #1299410349925335041 message
The first thing that we wanted to do to combat this is to add a rating limit of 50 for players to play together. This way, you won't be able just create fake accounts and use them anymore past 1250 rating (unless you spend time ranking them up just to have them de-ranked later when you use them to get 7th and 8th place, which is really not worth the effort, especially when you get to higher ratings of 1500+).
We'll monitor the situation and take a decision soon regarding this
Adding a rating limit of 50 would then lose the small benefit of playing with friends
Doesnt make any sense to me as a solution
The solution is to simply remove this. We will have big money on the line and having a healthy competitive scene is the #1 priority for illuvium. We cant have something like this that incentive abusers
Yeah, that would work to prevent that type of win trading I was talking about. But how many people could you realistically play with then? What is its function, and why do you personally think it's needed? It seems like you think this is an important feature, so can you explain why you believe that and what type of players would benefit from it?
It would still make it easier to abuse unfair tactics if you could actually find two more people to play with a rating limit of 50. However, no matter what limit you set, this will always be a problem. If three people are queuing as friends, they could help each other during some rounds when they face each other, making their boards stronger or weaker to lower the HP losses, which would be a huge advantage. Once again, it’s important to measure the positives versus the negatives. What does the player base want? Do they want more fair ranked games or the ability to queue up with friends in ranked mode?
It's good to know that you are monitoring the situation. Hopefully, you can find a fair and effective solution to the problem 🙏
The game is just not ready yet except many player on the gauntlet(it's not about the play together it's about how many player play it , as long no ranked system the problem not gonna solve), should be realase it with the mobile version where many new player can acces it and added a ranking system,rn just imagine if some player with 7 friend and work together when they can just abandon the game if they meet each other in same match, it only take 3 minute + for them to complete the match and they can instanly ranked up, they dont need to use custom code for this if only few player playing and no ranked system , just make sure no one playing at some time and enter the que together boom .
just to be sure, you know that there is a ranking system ? and also you don t need code anymore, you juste click "search game" ?
If there's ranking system the code system maybe possible with that rating limit but it's still can be abuse, but the real problem is a how many player playing , if it's not enough to cover 24/7 at some point if no people que doesn't matter with or without code some people can abuse this, just imagine if only 1-2 hours no player que at 2-3am at morning maybe and they can abuse this and how many point they gain at that time if they use abandon
quanto será que dá pra vender? boa tarde
love u, thx paz
what app u use bro?
illuvimkt.trinix.dev/earlyaccess?ref=illuvination
Waiting for a while to play just for the game to crash and lose bot rounds 🥲
+2 gauntlet ranked
yeah, same
@compact parcel so tell me how you got all those stage 3's?
pretty bizarre that you had 5 stage 3's and only one other person had a single stage 3 haha
income and roll
you should play the lottery
can acept dm Paz?
always open
;x
friend req
do we have a list of all the current gauntlet augments somewhere?
@vivid stirrup wtf is that doka haha
haha
didnt help in the end
"unit is not on bench" is grinding my gears so hard 😅
does that one also cause one less illuvial on board sometimes too
ranked 7/8
i really hate timing, camera, controls, UX, performance in arena
Is there anything you do like?
yep, it's concept, idea, visuals, mechanics
I mean, honestly, those sound like EVERYTHING, but they're pretty fair gripes tbh. Using the UE5 default camera controls is a pain for most people who aren't UE5 devs, so I feel that. Having a speed up for single-player modes would be cool. Having more intuitive interface with more access to detailed information about certain stats (wtf is grit? what does lethargic do???) would be nice. Performance improvements are always going to be nice if you can get them, but current performance is way better than it used to be, so this is the one note on which I'll sort of depart.
And yet with all that said, the concept, sound design, character designs, etc...10/10 no notes, lol. I think it's just framing it in an "I hate" statement is a bit jarring.
Yep all good improvements,so good to have fresh eyes on the game,for my self i get tunnel vision so its great to see other perspective.
For real though, is there a keyword legend somewhere? lol
used to on illuvial master but the site got shut down. Currently I don't think so
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuudge
Hey! Where can I find augment descriptions?
We have Illuvidata and Illuvihub from @languid sparrow and @reef basalt
Sorry for the ping was to get the homepages for the sites
@south geyser links on the profiles above☝️
Ah, thank you kindly
We have it on one of our articles in illuvidata
Oh thank you! I wasn't sure where to look on there
Though the articles page doesn't seem to be loading
I just can't find stuff like what frost does, lethargic, burn, poison stacks and other stuffs. I remember some but not all
illuvidata . gg/articles/659735e956fabbc27cdaf8d2
For reference on what to search
We have it on our site too. We have an article out on synergies classed and affinities
Extremely helpful info that should probably be in tooltips in game. I wonder if anyone has formulae for things like grit, tenacity, etc...
I know @haughty nova has all of that tucked away somewhere lol
Is the bug that the mammoth can send a unit away to be stuck still not solved? Just had this happen today in a gauntlet match
Oh snap, will definitely sign up for this one🥳
Its top 10 ranked🙂
I will be there as moral support for whoever needs it🫠
Maybe some spots in the modguild
Phantom has wildcard spots for it and is always looking for new core members 🙂 also illuvium will have a bunch of invitations to give out
from 1200 to 2500 just 1300 rating. it's 52 top-1. you can play 15-18 games daily. so 2-3 days and it's top-10
Did you take into account that other plays might do the same that are higher?
Wait you are the nr1 guy right?
i stop play. no reason push higher, i better spend time in OW. when someone touch me, i'l back to grind points
honestley it is alot of fun watching good players play and see how they approche each game,saw Caveman the other day completley replacing his board and adept to beat the other player. thats another level.
Just waiting for your Advanced Video ser to up my game😀
Just😆
You were saying?
i see someone get more> i go play again
Im 1,1k on ranked arena, there is golden elo active by now, or just finish in silver by now..?
same
Something is broken? 15 win streak with 4 tier 0
2 augs on this flish/psions which give atack-speed - buged
is it luck - get 7 stage 3 units?
GG @static crane
Yeah GG Lars
This your wolf surprised me 😄
It turns out that collecting 3 Tatopee is more difficult than Titanor 😄
I had them
All ser😆
Surprised me aswell, was a beast
Yeah, counterplay versus me right 😄
when fix of it?
If they're going to have tournaments, this augment should be banned
It's banned along with lifestorm for this friday's tournament (to play 2 photonic unity, not 1)
On the list to be fixed this week hopefully
does gauntlet leviathan need illuvials to play?
https://discord.com/channels/760344898200666112/1300974707083972689
would love to hear what you guys think about this! 
you can play without owning illuvials, but most other players will bring their units, with stronger stats and levels, so you will be at a big disadvantage and should probably in that case of not owning illuvials play non-leviathan gauntlet which is same chances for everyone.
How many illuvials are needed for an arena team? I've never played arena -- only overworld
For the leaderboard, it would be really nice if we could see more than the top 20...
for 1v1 mode or gauntlet?
@zenith mortar are you M0zart?
Yes
GG to you as well
gg my man
crazy lynx xd
Gauntlet corner comps are way more oppressive than they were in ascendant 🤣
At least in ascendant you could adjust more freely to counter that. In gauntlet you’re screwed
gg , my game crashed several times accurate before legendary augments choice 😄
anyway rogue pho was pretty good
depends on which level you are and how many people are playing that illuviual
😄 i know, just kidding
@late lagoon game started
im not in one :S im searching currently
you are in mine, maybe restart
hmm nope have no reconnect option.. Nvm
wtf, somebody impersonating you
Well see if they are actually playing or not.. It might have tried put me in that game and bugged.
ye its been afk the whole time
sad 8th place coming lol
at least im not now lol
my poor points
hope it doesnt bug me out in my other game that im about to find
ill let you know when you are out
im in another and it seems to be working
oh wtf
If i come last in this one it could be a very costly 30 mins 😄
aww wtf its kicked me out of this game too 😦 No option to reconnect.. I was off to a great start 😦
you just lost in this one, maybe thats why
Yeah I guess so.. I wonder if Im still in this other one.. Cos I dont want to start again if im gonna get kicked out 😦
aww maaan thats going to be 2 losses and I cant safely play for another 30 mins
ok im in this one @silver merlin
eurgh rolled from 70 to 0 to get phorus and didnt find it.. no1 else was even playing it 😦
corner comps are so cringe, new meta i guess
To be honest, I don't know the difference.

@uncut comet game froze on me just now.
GG
What’s the fastest que time? Ranked or casual? Been sitting here for 6 minutes trying to find a ranked game
Ranked, depend time of the day, between 1-10min
For the love of Illuvium we lets please hope the next patch has a fix for the disconnect bugs.
Suggested Change for Sions they should not scale of Attack Speed
Make them just have passive energy regen or something so they can't speed up that many cast with all the fighter attack speed buffs
Ahhhh taking down rank one with thriple invokers bb 😉 Come get me
impressive strat. noone play it around. do you create it?
3 Invoker Magma 6 Psions Is pretty good 🙂
Is gaunlet bugged today?
Have had to surrender several matches because unable to place illuvials
It's been working fine for me today.
Can we place 9 illuvials on the board in gauntlet?
I had no idea and kept using energy to refresh after level 8...fml
3 days of playing and never noticed. Smh
anyone else experience this bug, where the mouse placement is off the right from where it should be in gaunlet/arena? intially i thought i could not move illuvials, but then discovered its just the right (by amount 1 illuvial of dexes). i also thought it might be my mouse, needs configuration or something. but Illuvium is the only game/application this happens on. Also, last night for 1 game it went away and worked fine, only to return again the next game
have submitted support ticket but figured might be quicker to solve here. right now im playing gaunlet on EXTRA difficult mode lol
have you tried shifting ur mouse to the right by about 1 illuvial length? 😂 thats what ive been doing
ahhhh first time i played you i thought it was bot, then u were winning lol GG
If u buy something from the shop it fixes itself
That is, if I am talking about the same problem
so its a known bug, mouse placement to right? doesnt fix for me but ill try anything a second time at this point 😭
must be a different problem
whats ur one?
@supple beacon game popped
I crashed and can't launch illuvium, it says it is still running
end task?
that sucks
No task is not even there, its like my account is connected but no task running
Ill restart the pc
atleast your econ will be good lol
biggest comeback incoming
as long as you beat @umbral oracle
The exodia build 👀
whats going on ?
Hmm, I just had that too
Someone down for a round of gauntlet? Currently only me in the line
@haughty lintel hey mate you are in a match now right?
Is it buggy for you too?
I can't do anything.
Has happened to me like 5 times today.
and I lose points each time I surrender.
You can try to exit and reconnect, usually helps for me
That worked. Thanks.
No one else had this? Mouse placement bug, slightly to the right
gauntlet ranked started need ppl
gauntlet just stopped working and I cannot reconnect. Sadly still a lot of those issues in place
Ya still very buggy, was the right move to delay szn 3 till resolved
definately. People will be mad if there is actual leaderboard rewards (if this is still the plan?) and the game crashes
I could't even reconnect this time! it's not fun anymore, every second game crashes. Also the OW is not playable after that performance update and i have a 4080s !!
Scoriox was right as he mentioned that Leviathan is broken!! people should spend 5000$ or more to get a perfect stat team and all the shitty stat illuvials become worthless!? we started an an web3 game and now ownership doesn't make sense anymore?? Does that mean i can burn my illuvials with shit stats? If u want to play gauntlet in a tournament, you should have to own them!! F2P should only be for training!!
Yes there will be rewards for leaderboard, tournaments and also some OW (and I imagine ILZ) missions too.
Cya on the leaderboard mate!
Hopefully it's more than top 20
We will good ser
Hi i have a question, does Gauntlet Leaderboard also pay? Or is it only Ascendant matches?
Nothing is paying anything today. When season 3 starts (dates tbd) gauntlet leaderboard will be part of the rewards system.
I don’t believe you 😂
He corrected himself after that
2 might still be generous 😂
Now rank 1st is only +20 point, is’t bug or new update?
After investigations, we have discovered that indeed the average lobby rating adjustment was not taken into consideration for the final rating calculation, meaning that everyone was receiving only the flat base points regardless of the difference in rating between players.
This has now been fixed - when calculating the final rating, an adjustment also takes place based on your rating vs the average rating of the other players in the match.
If you received 20 points for 1st place, that means that your rating was decently higher than the average rating of the other players in the match, hence making you receive less points than the base.
Oke thanks, i didn't know if already patching update.
When was this implemented?
It was just a quick fix that we did a bit earlier
Today?
Nice, I'm a bot so I might have a chance to climb now with all these sweats
someone has an image of all augments?
So how it’s actually calculate now, can i get more than +25 if i won when average rating is more than mine, i mean is’t any limit on how many point we can get
It would be nice if those fix where announced, it is a pretty nice fix for the players, always nice to hear good news.
gauntlet looking for people
On the upper end there is no limit.
If you have 1000 rating and you play in a match full of people with 2000 rating, you will probably get +50/60
But on the lower end, there is a limit (1st place +13 / 2nd place +7 / 3rd place +4 / 4th place +1 / 5th 6th 7th 8th same as 1-4 but reversed)
So if you have 2000 rating and you play in a match full of people with 1000 rating, you will get +13.
This announcements still prevail? since lot of confusions that we are currently having?
or this will change too?
That is the latest, have not been any official changes to that
can i lose more that 25? if my rating 2500 and i play in lobby of all ppl 1000 and i get top-6-8
I am happy with this update, but I think it shouldn't have come out so early. You have ruined the game for everyone now, because many tournament qualifiers are top 16, it is impossible to push rank 16 now, because people have already earned 15-25 pts per game. This update either requires a pts reset, or it should have been done at the beginning of the next season. In general, it has only gotten worse. Now there is no point in playing either Gauntlet or Overworld, thank you. Lately you have only upset me
My understanding is that tournaments going forward will be open for all.
And there will be a reset when Season 3 starts
which one?
Inferno at least, Scoriox said the next
One will open for all
im about guild tournaments, community tournaments. Not about illuvium tournaments. Phantom HYPE Wildfire
Yes, for last place it goes exactly like 1st place, but reverse
Most likeley due to the connection bug people have.
Haven't heard thing about that
but ussualy you lose more if play with low rating. it's still grind points, slower, but you can up higher and higher if play much and well
like in asscendance - if difference more that 400-500 you get +1 for win, but if lose got -40
if you are 2500 rating facing 1000 rating players (which really shouldn't happen ever, this is an extreme case), you really shouldn't be getting place 6-8, it means that you are a lot better at the game than them - hence why you won't win so much (max +13 for 1st place) and you will lose a lot if you lose (-50-ish)
so - find game depend of rating? coz i'm 2700 now and play with 300/1000/2000 - just any ppl sign-up.
i'm curious now, you say "Yes, for last place it goes exactly like 1st place, but reverse" - it's like -13. but now -50
do we have exact numbers depend of rating difference, or how this system work?
for example - i'l have 2500, everyone else in lobby have 1000. i got +13-7-4-1 for 1-2-3-4, or it will be less? same for revers if i lose.
Yeah you first find people around your rating only. If you don't find people around your rating, the rating gap widens. If you still don't find people, the gap widens even further and so on until you eventually find players.
I'll give some rough examples so you understand better:
2500 rating player vs players of 1000 rating:
1st place = +13 (minimum possible for 1st place)
8th place = around -50 (no maximum for losing)
1000 rating vs players of 2500 rating:
1st place = around +50 (no maximum for winning)
8th place = -13 (minimum possible for 8th place)
is it work now, or will start work with season, i'm about "find people with same rating only"
"no maximum for losing" - can we lose 100- 500-1000 for 1 game?
How long does it take you usually to find a match? It should work
i mean - i have 2700, my friends have 1300. we click together button search game - and got into same que
No, the formula is made in such a way that it pretty much stops at about -70, it can MAYBE get to -100 if everyone has 0 and you have 4000 (which will probably never happen, especially now that the rank adjustments works as intended)
hmm, yeah that shouldn't happen, I'll investigate it, thanks for giving me info on this!
what about top-5? it's still lose and if different with rating big - how much is it? top-4 is + dothen mater of overage of rating?
so - search game for me should be much longer that 5 min? most of people not push rating so hard
For top 5 the minimum is -1
top 4 is +1, so if you (with 2700 rating) face players of 1000 rating on average, as 4th place you will win +1.
Yeah it should definitely be longer than 5 mins
and maximum minus for top-5? 30-40 could be?
If you (with 2700 rating) face only players of 1000 rating, as top5 you will lose -42
@wide aspen is the gauntlet rating separate from ascendant?
Yes
Looking forward for the reset then (:
Cause farming rating on ascendant is way easier as to gauntlet
Is rating the only factor in the leaderboard position?
Fe. Average position comes to play or no?
I struggle to get wins, but my average is usually top 3-4, that only goes as far as the points you get in ratings ye
Only rating, the other stats are purely informative
Alright ty
hehe, I'm exactly the same kind of player, pure consistency but rarely top1!
The system does a good job at favoring this type of play, so no worries about that.
We won't be getting the juicy +25s, but we'll slowly crawl our way to big ranks!
Is there a breakdown of economy bonus somewhere? And of winning streak extra points?
Hovering over it gives you the breakdown right?
Looks like I've missed that, have to check idk
Hovering on win streak down right shows me nothing cause i checked earlier
What Garf said^.
But if you want more info:
You get 5 Base Credits Every Round + Interest (0-7, 1 for each 10 credits you have) + Streak Bonus (2-3 streak = 1 Credit / 4-5 Streak = 2 Credits / 6+ Streak = 3 Credits) + 1 Credit if you win the round
May I ask the pve rounds? Especially round 12, I had less 5 in a game and more than 10 in other game, is it random?
yup, random
Alright, thanks
is it the same amount for every player?
nope, random for every player
so in a game, a person can have 20mp after the 1st 2 rounds but the other not? And then he can snowball that and the other has no compensation? If everyone has access to augments at the same rounds, I don't see why the mp gain from neutral should be random between players.
Because this is another RNG element, auto-battlers by default need RNG elements to work well to force you to adapt to what the game gives you.
Although I agree and we are aware that PVE Rounds are a bit too RNG-y at the moment, we'll probably do some adjustments later down the road. Also keep in mind that we are just getting started with Gauntlet, we have a lot of things in the works that will make everything feel better, including PVE Rounds.
Just like Augments - yes you do get them at the same rounds, but you get different augments of different powers - another RNG element.
Yes it is rng, but it could vary per game and give the same amount to every player. In tft, not everyone gets the same gold, but they also do not get the same amount of components. Here everyone gets a same power level augments selection. Sure it is not the same augments, but you get one.
The rng should be every one get the same amount, but a random amount. Just like in the augment round you give augment choices of 'equal power'
this pve rounds here>super strange. you can just go afk for 1min and doing nothing. not need make team stronger, or change positions. only for 1-2nd pve rounds you have to think a bit how win. for next pve untill 35+ need do nothing. they are so weak. in autochess you have to think about position, how to win to get gold/items. here - no way you lose pve rounds. why we have it then? to take a break from pvp rounds to get more gold, go afk to kitchen xD?
The PVE Rounds we have now are far from being their final form. We have a lot of plans for them.
For now their goal is to give you a moment of breathing and an economy boost, so you are not too far from the truth 
They are not meant to be hard, but we have plans to make them more exciting in the future
Gday @wide aspen no one replied to me, wondering if you can answer? Have you heard of this bug before, where mouse placement is to the right? Makes selecting and moving illuvials very difficult. I’ve submitted a bug ticket in game already
Heya, nope, we never had it internally, sounds like an issue with the resolution. Does it happen both in Windowed and Full Screen? Anyway good thing you submitted a ticket, we'll look into it
Yea it seems to be happening in both, but I’ll play around with it more tonight after work and update the ticket. Hoping to have it resolved before Inferno tourney tomororw. Good thing is, I’m still beating players even on extra difficult mode 😂
Crazy game...Build was wild @spring basin
Yeah ggs! I saved up gold and manged to cap my board last turn. The game froze right after tho, so not sure I will get the points 🥹
What board did you face last round?
I've had the game not start even though it's 8/8 for two consecutive times now. Is there a solution?
I actually lost to second place ghost
Of the other guy
Yeah he was pretty strong! I lost to him before my rolldown, but after I hit it was pretty easy
Ya I saw you going for winqs I was holding a couple plus my quinx but I had to roll down to get a fludd and had to sell them.
The third time, I waited about 120 seconds from 8/8, but nothing happened. What's going on? @wide aspen
I lost 19 points for a top 5 but I only gained 13 points for a top 1
If you've double the maximum amount of points that we win or lose in top 1 and top 8, please do the same with top 5 and make us lose 8 points maximum
I actually disagree. Mwybe i miss understand but, losing should scale with the difference and there should be no cap you can lose. This is how good players can catch up that can't grind out 1000 hours
What are your thoughts on a decay function?
If the maximum amount of points we can lose for being top 8 is 50 but the maximum amount point we can lose for being top 5 is also 50, don't you think that it's problematic?
Imagine:
Top 5: - 47
Top 6: - 48
Top 7: - 49
Top 8: -50
If the gap between each top is too small I think that it makes the game worse
It just makes sense to me that if you double the maximum amount of points you lose being top 8 or win being top 1, you should apply the same logic to every top
There is no maximum point to lose
This is not what meko said a few hours ago
can we use emotes now?
How many points did you lose for your 7th place? @lean ivy
I'm stuck here, has this happened to you before @ashen mango ?
It is happening to a lot of people right now, sometimes leaving the queue and coming back fix this stuck state
whity has reported the same problem earlier but it never happened to me
It looks like the game has more bugs today
Oh I lost like 45 :😭
Ouch that hurts!
I'm glad I grinded my way to top 10, now I think that playing is ev- for me unless maybe I fight the top 20 leaderboard
Ya can you take a shot of the leaderboard am I even top 20 after that hit. Lol
It is dangerous to play 😉
yep lol
I succeeded on the 7th try.
anyone else having issues still
too many bugs toooooo bad
Must debug before main net. We are not debugger. I am game player.
Can't load all in.....that's what she was told!!!
I’ve had this issue the last 4 searches. I just restated everything hoping that fixes it.
And that didn’t help. 😔
If you’re going to leave the matchmaking queue, please click “Cancel” before you click the back button.
And yes, this is a stupid bug 😦 we’ll get it fixed ASAP
Currently, 90% of 8/8 are fake. If you don't start with 8/8, you have no choice but to que again.
the issue is still going. Trying to play but doesn't go through 😭
so annoying gud dang
I came to see if everyone else is having an issue getting on. Look at all the people I could be playing with.
Off to play OW, hope it's fixed soon.
7th attempt not working for me, off to hang in OW with @noble hinge and Steve
Hit cancel instead of back
how long since queue broke?
Seems like a new bug.
So gauntlet not playable RN? Or we still can find match ?
It works if no one presses the BACK button.
Oke it's just visual bug?
No. The game is bugged. It thinks the lobby/queue is full. But if someone pressed BACK and exited the queue it’s not.
What's that mean? So if no one press back the game will start no?
Oh nvm it's fixed already i think now it's 7/8 not 8/8 anymore
and it is 8/8 now again 
Yeah lol i thought fixed
we need 8/8 pressing cancel first
Do we need to do it at same time?
i dont thinks so, but i think someone has already exit/alt F4, so we cant get 8 cancel
Nope if they exit they should be still on match and after game start he will quit automatic
I had that issue before, when im matching then lost wifi connection, my account still in the game and lost 25 point
That sounds right
Unfortunately I’m not exactly certain though
Yeah maybe just wait untill fixed, already 10-15 min que still not start
If you’re going to leave the matchmaking queue, please click “Cancel” before you click the back button.
And yes, this is a stupid bug 😦 we’ll get it fixed ASAP
so do i just press cancel if 8/8 and not starting? or wait for a while and see if it start
Yes press cancel
Should cancel it, if you press back only point still minus if the game start
So if anyone was in your 8/8 queue that had pressed BACK without pressing CANCEL first then that queue is wrecked. It broke. It won’t ever work. You would need to CANCEL and start a new queue.
When people leave without cancelling the game is acting as if the player is still there in the 8/8 even though they are not actually there and the match will never start, it will just hang.
A bug that will be fixed asap
so no one can play?
seems like, it takes one to mess up and queue is bugged
From what I can tell People have played. You just need to have 8 that don’t leave press the back button
someone that press back & leaves is no longer in queue, so that queue is indefinitely queing
Exactly
so that queue will never start, and new queues can never start also cause people fit into the bugged one
hasnt ranked been up for a week? how is it happening now?
I assume An update was rolled out that broke it. Things don’t typically stop working if nothing was changed.
stuck on 8 for guantlet, sad face
I can't get a match all the time, what is it?
There is a small bug here is the work around
See one post above
yeah I know,
I am in a new lobby now it's slowly ticked up to 8/8 now.
still not progressing to the game.
has anyone been able to play a ranked game since the bug has been identified?
im on my 10th try trying to cancel and start again but always 8/8
The bug only happens if someone in the Que goes back and not pushes Cancel.
Best is for all to cancel and reatart
Ya just hopped in also. Everyone back out and rejoin on the hour
I'm also curious if it just taking into account the RP ranking. Maybe it is still trying to fill in people based on elo
Its just a visual bug showing there are 8 people queued up but they are all not with in the brackets. Has anyone waited like 5 mins to see if it triggers after reaching 8
ohh nvm Stuart answered it above lol
6/8 cmon
I wish people used emotes more in gauntlet I can't be the only one🥲
After 7/8 turned to 8/8 and i have no idea its the bug or really we have 8ppl🙃🙃, but its aint starting so inguess the bug
How do you use them? I haven't claimed mine yet.
It's bugging out, 8/8 but won't load
We need a hotfix for this bug today
Would insta load if 8/8 would be real right?
Everybody has the same emotes on the claim page or its random? And the tier5 actually rare?
You add them
In the gauntlet screen before select game and press E ingame to see them
Pop up
I am a noob. I need all the short amount of time we have to try to figure out what I am doing. I don't have time for playing emotes. 😂
You can also do it during the figh🥳
But don't post a Noob emote too soon and then lose because you were too confident.
Have done that way too many times
I spend my time strategizing the future game while I fight. Which maybe I shouldn't admit with how much the future fight does NOT go well.🤣
I would definitely end up throwing noob emotes - Carablu Champion, then lose.
almost there
Any second now...
I just got tired of it and left 😄 any news since? Have you started succesfully a round?
Or its just broken for today
There is a bug yes, a fix is coming
8/8 bug ok, but yeyterday we could start rounds at least when real 8/8 geathered
But today seems it not just a visual bug but blocking the whole process
Correct?
Not sure to be honest.the bug comes when someone levels clicking back and not use cancel
When do the times stop getting tough for us..?
What's that mean, new update in 20minute?
yesir, 10 min now
Oke , that's great
done?
Haven't notice my client update yet
no client update, testing
Starting a casual game in 2mins
start ranked
GZP8VG - Casual Gauntlet Lobby Code
just tried 2mins ago, stuck at 8 players
now 🙏
clicking search now ranked
Ok searching ranked
should be good now
we in! thanks @hollow citrus legend
😭 I got left behind
going to monitor a bit and we'll make an announcement later bundle with another one
u got saved 😄
Oh mine when well also 😉
u playing ranked or custom?
zzzz I got DC'd (powercut), reconnect and it loads opposition but never runs the round
Restarted PC, same thing. Reconnect never lets me play
Need to schedule a testnet evening 1/2 times a week so people know when to prioritse it.
nice patch B.
nice boost on the synergies and omega abilities, love to see we're trying to make em feel more impactful! Also curious to see with this patch if high tier illuvials won't end up being too powerful in a way that trivialize the lower tiers.
just a shame we can't go deep into the composite sinergies without the ranger in the game...
6/8 ranked testnet
I'm still installing 😅
GG!
@vernal forum That last round comp you built was NASTY lol
Yeah - I almost left Ophisto on the bench, just because. But wanted to see the damage. GGWP
GGs 🤝
5/8 😦
Anyone up for a game of ranked gauntlet?
do lobbies run at this time?
someone for playin? 😄
7/8
Has anyone tried patch B?
Just read the notes. Looks pretty cool
The basic synergies look better in terms of effectiveness
I liked it, just sad it's hard to find a match there.
I think the right path lies somewhat in the middle of patch A and B
me not yet
wanna try?
If people go to testnet i am up also for some game !
ok i come
ah ok not testnet😂
come to try patch b on testnet
i have time only for 1 play, and now its 7/8 on mainnet 😄
have better odds here
Testnet ranked 3/8
we need play on testnet guys !
They should bring changes directly to mainnet! we split the player base in half doing these testnet updates! There is no reason form my to play the "old game" on mainnet anymore, and most of the people don't have access to testnet!?
I agrre, at the moment there is no reward so it doesn t matter to test directly on mainnet.
When reward will start, thenyes we should do the test on testnet
Testnet ranked 4/8
i m out for 10/15 min so i could be afk😬
probably wont be started yet !
5/8 testnet
6/8 testnet
7/8
on time 😄
Patch B rewards: leaderboard based on waiting queue time!
finally!
How are people liking the Testnet so far? I have had only
One game in it so far.
are people playing testnet or not?
same 1st game
From reading and 1 game it looks terrible so far 😄
All units are the same cause its mostly only based on tiers
Which automatically make empaths super op because as they are supports they used to not deal much dmg and not be tanky but now they deal dmg and have hp based on tier only
- couple units got broken like shrimp line, adorius, titanor, umbre
which are all high tier so they wouldve been automatically the bests but now they got mega buffed with their omega on top of it
7/8
Yeah, my initial gut feeling after one game was that is a step in the wrong direction.
Will play some more over the weekend.
Honestly my head really hurts, been a crazy few days. So I am out for the weekend, good luck everyone.
At least its not a step if we keep Patch A!
I think the basic synergies are overly weak on patch A, but overly hard to achieve on Patch B. I agree somewhere in the middle is my personal preference.
Yeah balancing mathematically in a game where creatures have a unique attribute in Omegas is a strategy I didn't expect to work, but I would be happy to be surprised by it for sure.
I also like patch A, I just don't like that the synergies are not that impactful.
testnet 7/8
I would ask that everyone actually give patch b a proper play through. (At least 20 games) We can make assumptions on how this will change the game but we need to play it to see how the meta actually changes and how the player behavior in game adapts.
I would even suggest we hold tournaments next week on patch B to ensure people are playing it
@fallen vortex @twilit storm @vivid stirrup
Testnet just froze as it went into game, says "Camera Mode 1" in top left and I cannot press B for bug report.
game started for us
Back in, reconnect worked well.
good idea! i thought about that too yesterday in bed when I couldn't sleep cause i threw away my 2nd place 😄 will have to talk to @zenith mortar if we can give the invitees testnet access for this. and we have to see how stable it is considering it's still on testnet
Testnet gauntlet
#1302282142075588678 message I put some feedback up in the Illuvium server on Patch A vs Patch B - can you please read and support or comment if disagree? TY
Hey guys, heres a poll for arena Patch A vs B to complement Soda's post
#1302301460599410779 message
Please take the time to carefully read the patch note and test patch B. Your opinion highly matters, the direction of arena depends on those patches

Hi everyone, here’s an idea to add new elements and classes to the game in a way that won’t make it harder for new players but will just add more variety to the gameplay.
https://discord.com/channels/760344898200666112/1302332982828339200
I’d appreciate it if you could check it out; maybe if you like it, they’ll add it in the future.
Ranked gauntlet 5/8
They haven't even ballanced the existing classes yet! To add new stuff now will be a big mess, i guess!?
I wrote there that it’s more of a future-oriented idea, along with other points that show it wouldn’t complicate the game too much since these classes and elements would be based on the current ones. I recommend reading the whole thing; it’s an enjoyable to read i think
Will check it out!
so checked it out yet?
Yes, but i have to say that i'm also not an native english speaker so thats too much for me😁 and even if i would understand the whole thing, i am still learning to play arena, which is my first auto battler experience ever. so i can not give any oppinion on that! For me everything that makes it less complicated is good😁
You're right; it is a bit of a challenge. I could have added something to make it easier and balance out the change better. But usually, further updates and adding new things just make it harder for new players. The way I’d add these new elements and classes would be one of the simpler methods since it’s based on bonuses for the ones we already have, so there wouldn’t be that much more to learn.
ranked gauntlet 3/8 🙂
If there is a tournament now we're talking! ⚔️
invites goin out mid next week! https://x.com/Phantom_ilv/status/1851337268981858335
endless lobby... it's an endurance competition that randomly drops here and there in arena
a bug report would be appreciated 🙃
thats something else than facing 1 fliish
Will it be on patch A or B?
Round 42 😱
how we play patch B if half of people don't have test version?
I'm pretty sure that everybody in the tournament would get the testnet version
They would just have to ask Rich, most of them already have it
quick gauntlet question for the pros, do you earn XP from waves without buying it over time? I occasionally see my level XP increase even when i don't buy it but there seems to be no rhyme or reason to it lol
2 xp per round
got it, thanks Coach ❤️
Finally got time inthe week to play some gauntlet....how is patch B?
not 100% decided yet, but 99% leaning towards A, because balance seems to be better there.
will update you early next week, feel free to ping me again if i dont ^^
I don't plan on ever holding a tournament on a platform not everyone has access to.
Don't love the idea of using competitive tournaments to encourage play but then saying you need to have access to an exclusive product
Why are the tournaments not held in discord?
none in testnet??
one more ranked
guantlet anyone?
main or testnet?
main i think, i think im in main, we have 7
i was in mainnet, 1/8
next one!
