game started and eneded right away

auto -25 points

[digital lion]

I’ve had the same thing happen to me, mine was -38 points though, it was brutal lol

[fallen vortex]

No lol my normal account is basically gone now lol

[bronze spire]

Take off all your battle board and skin selections and try again

Worked for me

May have been using one you gave away ect

[open ibex]

@worn tree was it u? awesome crossing beams 👍

[worn tree]

It was me brother! Thank you ❤️

GGs

[open ibex]

GG.u won?

[worn tree]

That Scoriox made me poop a bit 🐣

[worn tree]

Yes, close one with B4l4nce, but I ended up with Dualeph and Steam

[tired depot]

@worn tree on TFT, 50% of the time you play on someone elses battleboard, it inspires you to own cooler battleboards so other players can see yours and be like "wow this is cool". Why isn't that implemented on illuvium? I'm just playing on my own battleboards, the whole point is other players should be able to see them..

[worn tree]

We will explore this @tired depot! Thank you for the good idea.

[tired depot]

Please do it. I wanna play on a cool battleboard I don't own and then have to buy it. Think when there's a battlepass with a cool battleboard, if you play someone who has it, you'll be like damnn i need that and you'll buy the battlepass! It's how TFT does it and it works extremely well.

[worn tree]

Those are very good ideas for cosmetics and monetization. We will explore them. Please, understand that even if we agreed to do this tomorrow, it would take us a good amount of time to implement.

[late lagoon]

This was the best tournament so far. @safe valve opted to impersonate you aswell 🙂

[safe valve]

i was actually striving to be more like @zenith mortar

[foggy geode]

[ebon flume]

That's probably for illuvium beyond album rewards

[foggy geode]

oh okey when start 3.season ?

[ebon flume]

No official starting date announced yet

[foggy geode]

thank u we are waitin other season because ilv wonderful game

[twin iris]

Hey, i just noticed the blasts we get in the personal achievements can only be used til Q1 2025… does that mean it is useless after? Like has no value

[light garnet]

Where did you see they can't be used after Q1? I am almost certain they are yours to keep after you've obtained them. Unless yo ubreak your album so you no longer meet the requirements

[twin iris]

if u hover over the (!) it says "this asset will be minted automatically, but it will only be usable in-game in Q1-2025"

[light garnet]

That means you won't get access UNTIL Q1. Not that it will be gone on Q1 haha

they are currently still beign created by the art team, that's all

[twin iris]

ahh okey thanks XD

[light garnet]

All good mate

[fallen vortex]

Ohhhhhhhhhh. That's fucking genius, I did give some away

This should solve it thanks mate

Let's go train in Leviathan mode

[cyan olive]

leviathan xd

[viral marsh]

you say xD about leviathan, but when last time you play illuvium?

[cyan olive]

xD

aren´t you selling your account?

[viral marsh]

so, you play last time game in august, but from the side you have your opinion about what we doing here? - right?

[cyan olive]

why do you sell acc?

why shouldn´t I comment?

[viral marsh]

or probably you can show your account with prepared illuvials?

oh, you have 0 lvl 60

[cyan olive]

if they are so great, why do you look to sell?

[viral marsh]

you whanna buy it? or you have nothing say about yourself?

[cyan olive]

nah, don´t see a future in shitty set up p2w game, won´t buy

[viral marsh]

as i say - you don't play game but come to say your toxic opinion

[cyan olive]

So, if I think the company I invested in makes poor decicions, I should say nothing?

pls tell me how recently decisions have been good

or made profits for token or NFT holders

again, if leviathan is so great, why do you want to sell atm?

[safe valve]

weren't recent decisions all about f2p?

[viral marsh]

do you see i'm spam about account selling? or you are my sell manager?

[cyan olive]

idk, rarely check this discord nowadays, saw this though

[viral marsh]

when someone whanna sell something he start repost it every 4-12 hours - no?

[cyan olive]

so you don´t want to sell?

[viral marsh]

but thank you for advertising here

[cyan olive]

lul

[viral marsh]

you whanna buy it - again? or why you so worry about this my msg?

[cyan olive]

idk what you mean, think I have frequently stated my thesis, that leviathan concept in a TFT- clone won´t be appealing to people

so "leviathan xD" is very coherent with that xD

[regal hound]

a new copypasta is born?

leviathan xD

[cyan olive]

Poggies

[regal hound]

ngl I hated the emoji xD since it came into existence

[cyan olive]

same, but it grew on me

[frozen tartan]

Social poll

Would you like to play Leviathan Gauntlet?

👍 - yes, I like it
👎 - no, I don't like it

[cyan olive]

if Kieran borrows me perfect collection and I get free 1st place maybe 👀

How can you think that a p2w mode will bring people into the ecosystem...

[frozen tartan]

Naturally, this mode attracts many players. And it scares away parasites that come into the game for an Airdrop and run away from the game after that. Moreover: we have 2 modes. F2P (Ranked) and Leviathan. Perfect. Everyone will find something to do. Except for drop hunters (hopefully).

if your bored, i put up a beta of the new ILVStore, see if you think finding an Arena Illuvial NFT can get any easier or tell me my site sucks, i could use a couple feedbacks add a .com to get there in your browser

[jade pecan]

can you build a 3rd party protocol for wager?

[copper robin]

for discord?

[jade pecan]

Yup, I think many player here really want it

and you can charge 0.1 or 0.2% per match, mayba

need fix this autoaccept thing.
i click find game yesterday and after 1000 sec i can't find it - go play OW, or close game. i have 1508 rating. i'm not accept or join game, but as i see, game think i'm still in que and start this game, i lose 30 rating, it's not should work like this.
as well, every 2nd game - i see someone stay afk, it's mean problem not only for me.

[regal marsh]

[static crane]

Heyo, Foxspirit!
Thanks, I'll forward this to the support team
I think this is one of those problems that is already in the process of being fixed

[compact parcel]

Almost every second game since the start of the game, everything freezes. And reconnecting doesn't help. In the previous patch, I definitely had fewer problems with this.

[static crane]

Yeah, Thanks as well, forwarded also

The problem with freezes is still relevant, I myself caught a freeze in the last game while loading the start of the match 😄 I think this is one of the most pressing problems now, known and also in the process of being fixed

P.S.: It is better to use the report in the game (with the "b" key) to attach your hardware specs, this can help the support team when fixing the problem

There is an issue with toxic indeed, dealing more damage than intended. We are aware of it and we will address it soon.

[spark zephyr]

Do we have data on number of players month over month for arena and overworld?

[sinful hornet]

not really but you can guess that they're both very likely in the 300 to 1.5k~ range

[sinful hornet]

is matchmaking completely random besides just not matching u with the same guy for exactly 1 round?

with 6 players in the lobby i faced player X->rotate into player Y, player Z->player X-> now we're 4 people-> i rotate into someone else->player X->someone else->player X, if this is intended behaviour this is completely r....

[pastel hazel]

300-1.5k monthly average you think? Could be worse

[woven flint]

As soon as there will be enough player it should be ELO depending

But I think for now as there is almost no players, we are just matched with everybody who click search

[sinful hornet]

actually wait i was thinking of DAU no monthly

[worn tree]

8 Players Alive: Players cannot fight any of their last 4 opponents. Opponents are chosen randomly from the rest.

7 Players Alive: Players cannot fight any of their last 3 opponents. Opponents are chosen randomly from the rest, including the Gauntlet Mode: Ghost.

5–6 Players Alive: Players cannot fight either of their last 2 opponents. Opponents are chosen randomly from the rest, including the Gauntlet Mode: Ghost.

4 Players Alive: Players cannot fight their last opponent. Opponents are chosen randomly from the rest.

3 Players Alive: Players should avoid fighting their last opponent if possible. One player will face the Gauntlet Mode: Ghost.

2 Players Alive: Players engage in 1v1 matches until one is defeated.

I've taken like a month break from illuvium, where are we at? can someone run me up to speed on everything that's happened?

[vivid stirrup]

beyond promo sale with g-shock was well received, i think it performed better than TL and Gamestop, Overworld will be transformed into an MMO-Lite, check out announcement for the teaser and the letter to the community from Kieran. Other than that, the big focus from the team is on Gauntlet, and once its where it needs to be the big esport initiatives and marking will start and the focus will be on "Overworld-A new Dawn".

From the top of my head ^^

[past fog]

Whats the point to do leaderboard when i log in every day to play one game and leave because only 4 out of 8 peple to play game. Like dude im upset. Need bots or something. Havent played 1 game all season

This is the whole game for me lately... never got to play before

[fallen vortex]

I think the problem is that if u put all the Legendary Augs in a Tier list, you'll find 5-10% of them sit in an S-tier.

Then if you get the same augment twice and it happens to be an S-tier, the power spike can be pretty dramatic. Doubling them up on a good Illuvial is another benefit entirely on top of that

[regal marsh]

4/8

[digital lion]

Yeah I totally agree

[fallen vortex]

Yeah double augment is just a secondary effect that's more an emphasis on getting a very good augment twice

They are far more balanced than 1 month ago

But the thing is since they are highly impactful on hyper carries. Things that pair well with a phosphorus, scoriox or dualeph/octius, defacto become s tier

This isn't inherently bad. As long as it's not too dependant on rng

[bronze spire]

I really dont think its a bad thing. Kind of like a be careful what you wish for. Push for ultra balance and nothing OP and you dont realise how boring it becomes

[sinful hornet]

and if u get a tier 5 stage 2 at level 6 u're also turbo spiking and basically winning the lobby, how is this different from double good augment, it's just variance

[bronze spire]

also from another angle, look at all the TFT shorts. They are all of something 1v9ing the opponent. Same thing for last 10 years and they dont listen to people asking for ultra balance for a reason

[sinful hornet]

i'd honestly call illuviums balance better than tft's for 50% of the time of most sets

in terms of not having a clear force this everygame or lose 1 placement

[bronze spire]

I agree, illuvium team is very good at listening to feedback, its a strength and a weakness haha

[fallen vortex]

Yeah U want them to feel fun. But when U can restrict the rng more it will be way better.

As an extreme example say you received 1 augment in a match. And U had a 1/8 chance it was awesome. That level of rng means on average 1 player will stomp from pure luck.

10 augment rounds and it diminishes.

Now add in an item system like TFT where U can build your own augments or influence which one you receive and U diminish that 'luck' more.

Imbalance only exists on an uneven playing field.

If everyone can play a phosphorus then it doesny matter if it's op

[bronze spire]

oh yep can agree with all that. Guess im more referring to nerfing augments that are S tier ect

[fierce quiver]

hey is test arena and super fun

is there any cost to play or

fuel etc

[vivid stirrup]

no you can play it fully for free, there is leviathan modes though, in those leviathan modes u use your own monsters (illuvials) that you caught in the overworld or bought on the marketplace. So that one is pay to win, ownership matters a lot.

but all arena games from illuvium have a fully free2play version of them, to attract traditional gamers for example from TFT.

[fierce quiver]

cool

i have played overworld on of

[viral marsh]

you can play Casual with bots

[vivid stirrup]

that one, only 1/4 of it is free to play (stage0) but it's getting reworked into an "mmo-lite" version, and we will have something like loot boxes if u dont have time to play

[fierce quiver]

i own self caugth luvim and got fuel

and is earning tiny amount

[vivid stirrup]

you were playing at a time when our main playerbase is asleep.

@zenith mortar do we have any update on more timeslots for gauntlet play sessions? like one slot for asia/europe/US each, instead of just having one static one like right now?

[fierce quiver]

is defently thinking of exanding my holdings whit in the system

gonna head up in general again thanks

[sinful hornet]

what does this mean

what does the timeslot question mean

especially the right now part

[vivid stirrup]

at the moment we just have one gauntlet play session event, everyday at the same time, so if someone lives in a timezone where that event is at 3am, they will have a hard time ever finding some consistent lobbies atm

[fierce quiver]

and maybe a bigger part it is not gamefi bull yet in the market

[sinful hornet]

but don't we currently basically have play session slots? it's just that the global playerbase is so small u can't even fill all of htem

[vivid stirrup]

we have one slot, might be nice to try to have a second one and see if enough people show up. to give asia for example a nice one too.

[sinful hornet]

wait do you mean the ladder is closed at some times of the day already?

or do you mean there's some get together slot in discord?

[vivid stirrup]

check out events on the very top of this discord

it's never closed

[sinful hornet]

ahhh i see, i didn't know about those

Yeah, I've been getting that - annoying

[viral marsh]

i have remove all emotes, so i'm not spam them anymore

[edgy bough]

Has the team shared recent player numbers recently? DAU & MAU for Gauntlet? Would be great to know. Best guess for DAU would be a few hundred max based on wait times across time zones

[frank nimbus]

is the game down right now?

Gauntlet continues to get down to zero and nothing happens. I've exited out of the game 3 times.

Guys, to be able to play for rewards, do I need to have iluvuins or is the game still giving them?

[valid stirrup]

you can play

in turnament

you dont need to own them yet

so you can play

#1323294636046811210 message

[frank nimbus]

Sometimes I wish that we have more agency in the tier generation chance. It could be fun if we can go for t1s3 more efficiently if we are in level 5 or 6. And maybe perhaps we can go for all 10/10 illuvials if lower tier but higher stage illuvial

Imagine if u have 6- t1s3 empath n 4 pison t3s3 vs 7 illuival with mostly t4+

This way u can fully explore advanced composition n positioning

Make viewing way more fun too. More unpredictable

The devs have the right idea when they introduced weapon system. But position of the range is not impactful enough.

[viral marsh]

4 psions t3s3 - can you name them?

[frank nimbus]

Probably don't exit. But the idea is more lower tie illuvial vs less higher tie

More possible different game tree branches

[viral marsh]

tier 1 - 12 illuvials. tier 3 - 8 tier 5 - 6 different

so, what you suggest? i don't understand

[frank nimbus]

So right now the chance of tier generation is pegged with the level.

If u are entering end game, it's very hard to go for t1s3. But sometimes those composite skills are huge

[viral marsh]

then roll on low lvl, untill build it, if you think that win condition

[sinful hornet]

that's why u roll at 5-6 then

[frank nimbus]

But lower tier illuvial benefit from having more # of them

[viral marsh]

5 dokas stage3 lose to 1 phosphorus.

[frank nimbus]

I wanna get to level 8 b still br able to go for t1s3

[sinful hornet]

so u slowroll at 5-6 and then u get 8?

[frank nimbus]

Dokas have no advanced

[sinful hornet]

the best comp in the game is straight up doing that

[frank nimbus]

A lot of augments are aoe related too. So having more illuvial is fun

[viral marsh]

then push lvl instead of rolling

[frank nimbus]

That's my pt

U can't get t1 after u push for lvl

[viral marsh]

in most of comps. you need max 1-3 illuvials low tier. so i don't understand which comp you talk about to have 8 illuvials tier1 stage 3

[frank nimbus]

We don't know what that might allow us to do

Cuz we are going for certain comps to win game rn

[viral marsh]

it's a bit harder just build 1 comp and win

[sinful hornet]

but what u're saying is just straight up wrong

you literally roll at 5-6 for T1S3's right now and then u push 7 into 8

so there's just straight up no compromise here u can do both already

[frank nimbus]

The different is efficiency

[viral marsh]

then you have to think what you whanna build

if i need tier 4-5 units - i have more chance in higher lvl. if i need tier 3 - i have roll on lvl7. if i need tier 1 - lvl5 best

[frank nimbus]

Man you guys are thinking in terms of how the game is currently. How about think of how this game could be. We are still at the stage where we try to make it better than tft

[west plume]

[frank nimbus]

I could be dead wrong. Just brainstorming won't hurt

[viral marsh]

you talk with abstract things, so i don't understand what you whant?)

game about how you can work with your economy and team-build.
it's different builds now. in some builds you need low tier high stage units.
in other builds your win condition is high tier.
and you play from your strategy

[frank nimbus]

Look at all the winning lineups on top 2 finishes. If you play enough game of a current meta. U gonna see similar winning lineups

That lower replayability

[viral marsh]

in every patch you have some comps which stronger that other.
at previous patch i play around 40 games, 30 1st place, other 10 at top-4

and i play same comp every game

[frank nimbus]

Increase players variables without taking away rng will lessen the meta effect

Encourage ppl to try more builds

[viral marsh]

in current patch it's more that just 1 comp which beat everyone. Psion,rog,fighters,water.
and you win not just by comp you pick. which augs you got, do you have good early game to go into economy, do you have better compe to counter other people, how much other people roll your units

[viral marsh]

just need more units. but we not get it untill 2nd set of illuvials.

[frank nimbus]

Well. Let's do devil advocates.. what's the disadvantages of not pegging the chance of generation to level?

[frank nimbus]

Let's say you get to chose the preset generate as a set

[viral marsh]

so - you whanna more tier 1 units at lvl8?

[frank nimbus]

I want the option to

So I can go for 10 illuvial

[viral marsh]

call me 8 units tier-1 who can win game in 1 build

you can go for 10 illuvials now - push lvl to 10

[frank nimbus]

Combine with some t3. Sure it can

[sinful hornet]

are you saying u wanna go lvl 10 and then have predominantly T1-T3 odds in ur shops?

so u can then S3 them?

[frank nimbus]

Yes

Have the option to

[sinful hornet]

ok so then i get all T5s in my level 3 shop?

[frank nimbus]

N play cool positions with them. U r probably the best at that hollow lol

[viral marsh]

you still not call theyr name. your team of 10 illuvials stage 1 and 3. who that will be?

[frank nimbus]

Gold will restrict u in a sense

U can play around with total gold received to select which preset chance of generation

[viral marsh]

most of games end at lvl 8. any idea how alive, get gold to push lvl to 10, and build 10 units stage 3?

[sinful hornet]

this can work with TFT meaning augments

other than that not gonna work

[sinful hornet]

maybe he thinks he can straight push to 10 and not die

but champion duplicators in tft basically achieved what u're trying to here

[frank nimbus]

Let the viper slicks n hollow to try them out lol. I'm shit at playing the game

But give ppl more things to think about

[sinful hornet]

but this gives less

[frank nimbus]

Y

[viral marsh]

in autochess you have same mechanic: if you don't have unit on tabel - you can get more in rolls. so you can get 2 Gyro for example, and some builds around it. you build 1st unit stage 3>put him on back and roll for other one

[frank nimbus]

Hmm. I don't know that will change the overall game.

[viral marsh]

it's not work here.

[frank nimbus]

I know. Same unit doesn't
Add

[viral marsh]

and even so>we have to low amount of units in pull to play around it. you can't get 2 Scoriox. and if someone build revo > you can't get 2 gyro.

[frank nimbus]

When was the last time you seen 3 shocks. Or 3 mytic or 3 mud.

Even 3 wildfire is rare

[sinful hornet]

3 mystics is almost every game

[frank nimbus]

All 3 complete?

Or they were going for it

[sinful hornet]

i mean mystics is insanely easy to get

[viral marsh]

2 day ago

[sinful hornet]

you can straight up stumble into 2 mystics

[viral marsh]

4 wildfire at previous week i build

without aug

[frank nimbus]

Agreed. With weapon

[sinful hornet]

tbh at least so far u can literally play anything in this game and it works, but that might just be because there's a low playing level

[frank nimbus]

Even in ranked?

[viral marsh]

2 week ago, also without aug

[frank nimbus]

U won that game correct?

Well now I challenge u to find a game where u got 3rd or 4th n have high advanced composition

[sinful hornet]

well in ranked is where im talking about

maybe in tournament's fewer things work

[viral marsh]

i got 1st or 2nd with 4 wildfire.
build 3 shock also easy now if you know what to do

[frank nimbus]

Are you a pro?

[sinful hornet]

no

[frank nimbus]

My pt is having advanced composition is very strong n game changing. Right now bottom 4 players toward mid game are left with very few to non advanced.

[sinful hornet]

because they're griefing their games

[frank nimbus]

Losing streak bonus helps. Augment rng helps. But still

Have yall ever since exalted doka or fish? What if you can go for max economy n go for t0s3 til lvl 4

Current system have some blind spots

[sinful hornet]

you can, an exalted grokko* is worse than a scarabok

and it's basically the same for all of them

[frank nimbus]

But it's free. It will help boost ur econ

[sinful hornet]

it's not free you roll for it

and you're getting outscaled after 2nd pve round

[frank nimbus]

Besides. The game should have less blind spots if we want to push for levit n encourage ownership

But that's different topic

[sinful hornet]

i hate having 0 costs in the game and they've so far broken every single card game i've ever played, but so far they haven't been a problem

[frank nimbus]

What if owning exalted doka for levit has real life value

With good stats

Current preset chance doesn't help

@vivid stirrup thoughts? Scroll up n read probably

[frank nimbus]

If you can use most t0 n t1 n hold ur own with positioning, u will either out number them with illuvial or much stronger econ for late game? Compound interest?

[frank nimbus]

Not a fair comparison. Compare them with t3 tank

[viral marsh]

will be stronger that any doka, coz you can build predator, and even you have doka stage 3 - he doing nothing

and to get chucco - you need spend 2-3 roll. to get exalted doka - how much? 10-20-30 rolls?

[frank nimbus]

No. I would imagine you don't reroll for t0. Buttttt if rng allows, you could have a different branch of the game tree

[viral marsh]

exalted grokko vs headi

[viral marsh]

so, you not roll but get all tier-0 stage-3 just gifted to you?

[frank nimbus]

It will be more like u roll to get t1s3. U also come with with some t0s3 during early game

[sinful hornet]

how many ranked games did u play?

[viral marsh]

you can count by yourslef your chances get stage 3. you know that at lvl 3 - you have 60% to get tier-0 in roll, than you have around 15 units tier-0 in every game. to get stage 3 - you need 9 same units. how much roll and % chance you get this stage 3 fast?

[frank nimbus]

U r thinking in terms of what you should be doing right now. But if the framework shift; the game could be more dynamic

[viral marsh]

you still avoid direct questions 🙂

[frank nimbus]

How many games?

I played

[sinful hornet]

in ranked

tft also counts

[frank nimbus]

Like 50 or so last week. Lol

But only played 3 week

Last 3 weeks *

[viral marsh]

50 it's good amount. your name same in game?

[frank nimbus]

Yea

Kip

I think we intuitive do what wins us game but never think about how to possibly make the game more fun lol.

[frank nimbus]

I suck 😆

[viral marsh]

dothen mater what we think.
they already work with most pryority things: like observer mode.
As well we can check opponents bord - it's what we need as fast as possible.
we need more units in pull. now - you can build 9 fighters only 1 of 3 games

we need end game screen with more statystic: how much gold people got throw game/how much dmg you doing to other ppl etc

[frank nimbus]

Yes we absolutely need the things u mentioned

N manpower is a huge issue

[viral marsh]

but chances for units/tiers balanced now, don't know why you think need change something

balance for weapon/suits - yes, not balanced. 1 of 40 games you can build stage 3 weapon, even if you roll at best lvl. coz you have only 1 slot for weapon at roll

[sinful hornet]

do you go for S2 armor this patch urself?

[viral marsh]

ussualy i play with tier-0 stage-2 most part of game. at psions sometimes i change armor.
but for other builds, 75% dmg of every 3rd atack probably will be batter that tier 5 stage-1. not sure

[sinful hornet]

i like the grit one at s2

[viral marsh]

ranger so weak this patch, most of time he just close synergy

[sinful hornet]

but yeah i think the high tier armors are a waste of gold now

[viral marsh]

some of stage 3 suits strong. like this one. but chances to build it around 0.1%

but at test servers, when we have 2 slots for weapon/suit - it was better chances roll something. don't know why that changed.
i build 4-5 times weapon/suit stage 3 by 15-20 games

[safe valve]

somewhere i read that weapon/suit stage3 should be made more accessible in future

[viral marsh]

yes. but for now we have what we have. new patch with this stage3 weapon can come in 2 weeks or in april, who know

[daring shuttle]

@west plume Well Done!! GG

[west plume]

GG

Got 3 steam which helped

alot

the last patch really opens up for so many comps to be played,get those composite up and you can really do damage.

[lusty bridge]

In arena when you fuse a 3 lynx do you get to choose the stage 2 class or is it random? Is there some way to know what class it will be?

[noble hinge]

Not random it is shown here:

[zenith mortar]

Hover over that little upsidedown arrow thinger

next to the 1/1

[static steeple]

No one's playing arena these days. 😔

[shrewd stirrup]

im hooked with the gauntlet ranked. lol.
Hope the rewards come back and the ranking gets reward

[light garnet]

Rewards and leaderboards are coming! Keep practicing, ranger

[uneven grove]

Hello guys, ther's no ascendant mode anymore ?

[compact parcel]

It can be enabled in the settings.

[uneven grove]

oh okay

thx

Do some PvP guild wants me ? Are there any players on ascendant right now ?

haven't play for a few months

[bronze spire]

@compact parcel gg lol

[compact parcel]

I thought I was going to lose. It was so epic.

[bronze spire]

i was celebrating half way through that last round haha. Epic top 2 rounds

[violet summit]

[safe valve]

awsome format!
This can bring back more activity on ranked mode 🙂
Super curious how many are participating and grinding their way into the finals ⚔️

[violet summit]

Whats this?? 😮

[late lagoon]

Ooo this looks exciting

[west plume]

scan the QR code ser

[foggy tiger]

so basically when this tournament starts you need to play and grind as much as you can first thing since its first come first serve basis

[west plume]

Pretty much, win 5 times and get in or get second 10 times.
Log and report your wind in Hype Discord

[valid stirrup]

How it is ready for a fight ?!

[foggy tiger]

can you share the link here? its hard to type all of those lol

[plain slate]

Does Illuvium Arena still have leaderboards and rewards?

Also, I want to play this game and get rewards. Do I need to buy equipment?

[foggy tiger]

I want to try the 9 or 10 water units.. what weapon I should use for my ranger?

[neat walrus]

ripple flail is best i think
s2 has tsumami👌

[foggy tiger]

Awesome. will give this one a go

thanks btw

[violet summit]

I have a question, if I'm first and I take a screenshot and second player is not participating and doesn't take a screenshot, that game is automatically excluded?

I understand that this is the only way to prevent abuse but some people may not want to participate at all so they won't take screenshots

[valid stirrup]

They are Simple they have aproved data from insider anyone try it to make something wrong and no right they got a ban to the event and future events

so good luck =))

@violet summit

[vernal bloom]

try aqua blaster with axodon and fludd

and big mahmut

4 needed for ranked pls 😉

[foggy tiger]

tried it the 2nd time and won 1st place lol

and s3 on aqua blasterrrr

[ebon aspen]

strong as f lol

[foggy tiger]

maybe its a fluke haha will try to spam it for now lol

[foggy tiger]

6/8 nowwww

[noble hinge]

What I think would be more entertaining than the best players in Illuvium is having a tournament with the worst players in Illuvium.

https://tenor.com/view/whatever-duh-sassy-dont-care-lol-gif-14501911273958632798

[west plume]

"Everyones Alt has entered the chat"

would be fun to have a Tier tournement for Black,Bronse,Silver,Gold etc

[late lagoon]

But you wouldn’t be able to play as you are OP

[west plume]

https://tenor.com/view/bait-gif-20369681

one more

[late lagoon]

Maybe, maybe not. I respect your skills as a player!

[violet summit]

Can someone explain what GRIT and RESOLVE do?
Also True Sight... thanks!

[sinful hornet]

true sight means ur attacks can't miss, grit and resolve unless the guy i heard it from was wrong is just flat physical and energy resist

[rapid zenith]

Doesn't true sight make you exempt to blind too?

[final oak]

Hello, is this customer support? I have an issue and need assistance from your company.

[west plume]

what do you need?

[plain prairie]

This make any sense, 6 days for what? 16 players anchieve 5 wins? is too much time no? and prize only for 4 people, what the math, you have 1000$ for 4 people?

[west plume]

not sure of the spesific for price payouts @twilit storm can maybe share some insights.

my understanding is that the the first 16 people who gets 1 Place 5 times or second place 10 times from Jan 3 to Jan 9 will be in the final tournement

[plain prairie]

yeah i undesrtand that too

but its too much time

6 days, for 5 wins or 10 second place

[west plume]

one gauntlet game takes 30 Min if you are top 4 ish,top 2 you are looking at 30-45 min. its fisrt come first serve so they could reach the threshold on day one

[plain prairie]

If the intention is to bring new players or move the Arena mode, I thought the initiative was terrible, only 4 people will receive the prize, and for sure the 16 qualified will be the same as always and on the first day they will already be qualified, that is, it's not even worth trying, it's just a waste of time for those who don't play the arena mode

[west plume]

Is it top 4 for payouts?

its a fun engagement for those that do play gauntlet now. not sure how much PR this will get to bring new people in

[plain prairie]

Yeah

[west plume]

do you play?

decent payout for the top 4

[final oak]

"My password account was accidentally deleted. Can you help me recover it?"

[plain prairie]

bro isnt fun, i participate in the last, about 6 hours, I knew I was going to lose, but I wanted to see how the tournament worked and I thought the experience was terrible

[final oak]

My password account was accidentally deleted. Can you help me recover it?

[plain prairie]

How a week tornment will be fun?

[west plume]

do you have any spesifics that makes the experience terrible?

[west plume]

Best option is to make a support ticket with #❓❓〕support

[west plume]

its done through Hype guild sponsored by Illuvium.

[plain prairie]

Yeah, first of all, you need to build toxic or youre done, second, one time you see its impossible win, you need to play others matchs, even you knew its only wast of time, third, the bracket dont make sense, needs more player for a real competition

[west plume]

@swint can i give you a new years resolution to keep for 2025?

[final oak]

你会讲中文吗

[west plume]

yeah player retention is a big issue as it is now,do think the last patch is good step forward to diverseify the comps,Water is OP now and needs adjustments,aswell as toxic

[west plume]

english please

[final oak]

I don't quite understand what you're saying

[fallen vortex]

Its first in best dressed I believe. So the first 16 to complete this will get into the tournament.

[violet summit]

Thank you for the explanation!

[fallen vortex]

Yeah Grit and Resolve is a hard modifier. 1 grit negates 1 physical damage.

[viral marsh]

it's not good, that qualify start at night, hope when i come at morning it will be still some open slots at 1st day. even so - most of people will grind 1st day gauntlet. so - i don't understand, why we need 7 days, if we will have 16 people with 5 wins at 1st day

[fallen vortex]

I mean you know better than anyone that 5 wins is a difficult task

I suspect it won't be filled until day 2 or even 3

I expect most participants to be 10 2nd places

[viral marsh]

🙂 i play 30 games when mystic patch come, and get 25 top-1

[twilit storm]

yeah but you are one..we need 16 of you

[fallen vortex]

That's what I am saying. You are a special breed, I think you will be fine

[viral marsh]

but people can just come and play. i'm sure in 1st day we will have 16

and i'm sure, in half of games will be 1-3 afk player

just to fill game faster

[fallen vortex]

I guess we will find out

[viral marsh]

i can talk about some other strats. it's different way how you can play around rules. hope you know what you are doing, and how stop abuses

[fallen vortex]

I admit 32 might have been better

[fallen vortex]

Definitely a fear

[viral marsh]

then we will have 2 qualify rounds. 1st for week. and then again

[twilit storm]

Just a warning, anyone found doing even a remotely obscure or strange behavior will be observed closely and If malicious will be banned forever from any HYPE event.

[fallen vortex]

Why 2? Just first 32 in the 6 days

[viral marsh]

"Semifinals Match Type: Bo1, 2 lobbies (16 players)."
instead of it 32 will play 2 bo1

[twilit storm]

that s the finals...16 players/8 advance..then 8 players (first 4 get prizes)

[viral marsh]

it will be funny if 15 random people with 1200 rating and Slickz come into finals. xD. who faster grind 5 top-1

[twilit storm]

And btw nobody is forced to do anything weird, we are trying to populate the daily average users of ranked gauntlet. We have plenty of one day tourneys...so this will be a different kind of "event"

[viral marsh]

if you make limit of daily slots, probably that will work. 3-4 people every day. otherwise you got 16 in 1-2 day, and people stop play trying get into tourney

[twilit storm]

This coz honestly i see a lot of good players popping in only for tourneys with no presence during the week on gauntlet.

[viral marsh]

when half of illuvials lvl 40-50, better spend time to grind exp for them, in hope that leviathan come into live

[safe valve]

If it's to populate the servers...Thought about making it not Limited to a specific amount of wins, but rather those 16 with most wins/2nd places after 7 days will enter the Finals?

[viral marsh]

1 week of grinding laderboard to get 5th place in finals and get nothing 🙂

[safe valve]

Isn't that Kind of the Gamble you always do

[viral marsh]

but in tourney i spend 6-8 hours. for now i have spend how much? 20-40?

[safe valve]

One can just airdrop it to random people so nobody has to grind to get a Chance to win something 🙃

[fallen vortex]

This sounds nice on paper, but rewarding those who just play the most rather than those with the most skill is not usually the answer

[twilit storm]

Yeah, sure, nothing is set in stone. We just need a starting point, and then we can adjust and refine the format based on the results.

[twilit storm]

quality over quantity. always

[fallen vortex]

This format still does reward quantity a little over quality, but not nearly to the same degree

[twilit storm]

you need to be real good to achieve wins over wins or constantly finish top2 eh

it s not a "one lucky draw"

[fallen vortex]

Oh for sure. Its more that anyone with a full time job could ultimately be just flat eliminated haha

[viral marsh]

everyone play water now. just build counter and get top-1 every game

[fallen vortex]

But thats the price of increasing activity in the ranked mode

and that's allg

I'm exaggerating but you get my point

[viral marsh]

split reward pull. 50% for tournament. 50% for weekly LB. then people still play every day

[fallen vortex]

Is water good? Or is water on synalph good?

[fallen vortex]

Not a bad suggestion

If u guys have an api u can effectively start your own ranked leaderboard rewards

[viral marsh]

it's work now, and most of people just build and play it. in common games/last tournaments

[fallen vortex]

But why is it good? the synergy hasn't changed

it has to be the illuvials

[viral marsh]

but if i need play every day 10 hours gauntlet 7 days for 15$ - i'l not doing that

[twilit storm]

nobody forces you to do anything Fox

[viral marsh]

we just talk. is it allowed?

[twilit storm]

I am just talking too

is it allowed?

[west plume]

Iam just going to win the whole thing,maybe be second.

[viral marsh]

it's seems like something personal suggest to me

[twilit storm]

what? you just said " but if i need play every day 10 hours gauntlet 7 days for 15$ - i'l not doing that"

[viral marsh]

and you start this LB system already with split 1000$ prize pull?

[twilit storm]

And I answered that nobody forces you, as friendly as possible ser

[fallen vortex]

Ultimately this is the testing phase

an important part of grassroots

[bronze spire]

paz tourney is also first in best dress, eg lots missed out not being able to sign up before others

will be interesting to see how quick the 16 slots fill up tho

[dusty vessel]

Hey everyone, hey just wondering, are people still getting gauntlet bugs? Every time play my game crashes out or just freezes. It's killing my ranking, not that it matters too much at this stage but yeah

Are other people still having these issues or where most of them resolved in recent patches? And yeah I've been sending all my error reports to help out, let's gooo iluvium

[ebon aspen]

6/8

7/8

[fallen vortex]

During the game, or before it enters?

[foggy tiger]

Just to be clear.. does placing in the leader for guanlet has a prize? If so where can I read more about this

[dusty vessel]

Yeah during the game yeah scoriox, could it be a problem on my end?

[fallen vortex]

ive heard mixed thoughts, but the crashes still seem to be around atm

[dusty vessel]

Yeah ok, thanks pal

[foggy tiger]

who wants to playyy?

[vivid stirrup]

As soon as we’re confident that we can fill 64 slots again, we’ll bring back 64-player tournaments—and possibly even larger ones if there’s enough interest.

Right now, the current timezone isn’t ideal for players in America, making it tough to reach 64 participants.

That said, we discussed this last week, and with a bit of extra marketing, we might still manage to hit 64 players even in this timeslot. We tried invitational spots, but at this stage of the game and leaderboards etc. it doesn't make much sense. First come, first served is the best for now I think.

[bronze spire]

yea that's perfect. I was more responding to the criticizing of people might miss out on the hype tourney by not being able to play as soon as others (pointing out its the nature of a lot of tourneys). Your last one got close to 64 didnt it?

[violet summit]

@twilit storm can I get an invitation for the HYPE discord?
So i can submit the screenshots for the tournament

[tight swift]

#1169004294473793597

[vivid stirrup]

yeah around 50 checked in! pretty surprising. In our next one we will likely try to go for 64 and push marketing hard to achieve it.

[valid stirrup]

That the reason why they said

they need a bit time 😄

to be the game smoth so they can put another sesion

so 😄 you understand it

[plain prairie]

Goal without a deadline line is only a dream

[valid stirrup]

they said Q1

[plain prairie]

Goal with a deadline is a objective, they have a dream or objective?

[valid stirrup]

it is not a deadline

?

[plain prairie]

After said in Q1 2024, november 2024, december 2024 and here we are

[valid stirrup]

did you play gauntled ranked ?

from Q1 2024 and till know i think i see everyweek a change so that it is mean they working hard

[plain prairie]

yeah, impossibe to play, many bugs, crashs, only 2 comps strong

[valid stirrup]

you are wrong

they are many

comp wrong

sorry to said to you

[plain prairie]

You ever seen a Rhampfyre? I dont think so

And a Goliant? extremely rare

i have monarch

[plain prairie]

Naa, only when they takes courage to act, because speech is so good, but when we need, they gone, and dont care.

This is the last update of roadmap, do you think we are close to mobile version? Wave 4 will took minimum of 1 year of planjement

I can call it two things, incompetence or bad intention, there is no other explanation

So the team said in midle of the year gauntlet and s3 was launch, i believe they will launch in 2026 probably in the Q4

[valid stirrup]

you are to hard =))

[safe valve]

That's for sure not the latest roadmap, nor does it look official.
What's the source?

[valid stirrup]

take youre time

[plain prairie]

Yes, check in website

[safe valve]

you can argue that this stuff needs to be updated.
But you know very well it is not the latest roadmap-update, check #📣〕announcements chanel.

[plain prairie]

you can send here new one?

[safe valve]

latest roadmap below.
New roadmap should drop soon.

[plain prairie]

It just proves my point, there are no goals, there are dreams, literally everything on this roadmap has been delayed, canceled or postponed.

detail, this is already a roadmap of the roadmap, likely to have others, because every time they will update pushing further and still be able to delay what they have already postponed in the roadmap

[safe valve]

everything?

a possible solution to your problem would be to not give any dates or roadmaps to the public and just ship when it's ready and surprise everyone.

[plain prairie]

Or delivery in time, or its a crazy idea demand at least commitment to the deadlines established (amazingly) by themselves from the team?

[safe valve]

I feel they are commited to the deadlines, how you know they are not?
It's arguable if the deadlines are set well obviously.

[plain prairie]

Really simple, they dont delivery what they say and when they say, its a fact, not feeling or anything

[safe valve]

... or the deadlines are just not set well.

[plain prairie]

As I said, it's either incompetence or bad faith, let's hope it's the first, that maybe there is a solution

[ebon flume]

[worn tree]

Yes, fully aware guys. A solution is coming soon, as well as a small balance patch.

[ebon flume]

Dam teck even with your crash I could't beat you lol

[open ibex]

sorry to tag u out, was dc for 5-6 rounds, back and got toxic then won, this is wrong

[open ibex]

yeah toxic too toxic 🤣

[worn tree]

It is wrong. It is doing 10x more damage than intended.

[valid stirrup]

@worn tree it is back

Hi Nill !

happy new year

[worn tree]

Hey Anubis ❤️

Happy new year to everyone!!!

[valid stirrup]

[worn tree]

Fully replenished and pumped for 2025

[valid stirrup]

goood to know

[worn tree]

It is going to be the best year for Illuvium so far. I am sure of that.

[valid stirrup]

that we looking for it

do we know when it is gonna be next patch

[worn tree]

Next week

[valid stirrup]

thank yopu

[past mica]

wow, extremely lazy to not update the website roadmap, that should be the highest source of information, so dumb that they expect people to come to discord for real information

its funny how all the web3 projects go on long vacations when we see triple A games like POE2, Tarkov, and LoL, and many others working through the holidays when they know people will be playing their games

crypto games have a beer income on a wine budget

[safe valve]

yes, that roadmap should get updated.
Roadmaps usually get spread over all social media chanels.

[past mica]

its funny that you, a mod thought it wasnt even an offical looking roadmap, maybe they should spend a little more time making it look official on their offical website

[safe valve]

usually roadmaps as they release are colorized and not just a simple excel table.
Since a pretty long time.

Since he was making up info and sold them as facts not for the first time. I guess it's just usual to ask for source.

And just by the way... we mods are also humans and not ai with every info possibly out there in memory.

[plain prairie]

....................

[plain prairie]

Brother, you try to do a bizarre juggling act to defend the team about something they are wrong!

[plain prairie]

Exactly, literally on the days of the highest peak of players and search for new Web3 games, of course they will take a vacation, claiming that the team needs to rest, even though they have made almost no progress in the year 2024

[safe valve]

do i ?
Didn't i state it should be updated?
And for some odd reasons you keep reposting the 2year old roadmap?

[plain prairie]

Where i found this roadmap you sent? i dont find in anywhere, sorry if I get information from the site, which is actually the right thing, because information is what is most lacking in this game, and if you come on discord to ask they fill you with expectations and lies, and then say that it was nothing official haha

[plain prairie]

i posted because you say this " not just a simple excel table " clearly alluding to the roadmap I sent, as if it were obvious and everyone knew it was outdated

[safe valve]

you sent

[safe valve]

yes, maybe was wrong to assume you also read announcement chanels 🙂

[safe valve]

#📣〕announcements message

[plain prairie]

show me, where u find this roadmap you sent?

[safe valve]

please stay respectful 🙂

[safe valve]

look above your post

and as also mentioned above they get shared on other social medias

[plain prairie]

You joking, right? you expect i read more of 100 post just for encounter a roadmap?

[safe valve]

#🎮〕illuvium-arena message

#🎮〕illuvium-arena message

[plain prairie]

So make happens brother, updating a page on the site takes around 1 minute, it doesn't come to me with this should be done, if it should, and it's a simple task, they didn't do it because they didn't want to.

[safe valve]

that's not up to me

[past mica]

web3 does things differently where the consumers and their habits are wrong and the marketing team hiding info in socials are the right ones lmfao

[plain prairie]

😂 😂 True

this is what you get for telling the truth, censorship here soon will be a reality, only they are right

[past mica]

yeah thats embarrassing, mods shouldnt be triggered about the official illuvium website and the sharing of such information

imagine if nobody cared enough to provide feedback or critisism, soon thats how it will look in here when all the people willing to spend time providing feedback are banned

they really should reward people for sharing feedback but instead they punish them, insane

[past mica]

like this was disrespectful to say, you should warn yourself

[safe valve]

😄 it needs way more to trigger a mod.
The warning is also just about keeping a respectful tone as far as i can see and keeping it constructive.
Have a look at the feedback threads, plenty of negative feedback in there.

[past mica]

youre not the tone police, calm down

[safe valve]

what do you mean?

[past mica]

when you warn people for that its obvious youre triggered and looking too much into tone

"making up info and sold them as facts" when he literally pulled it from the website

like seriously go take a break dude

[safe valve]

it was actually ai warning...

[past mica]

lmfao right

nobody believes that

which word did he use that triggered the AI to say that?

[plain prairie]

Probably lie, but hey, they only tell the truth

[past mica]

well if the team says they will do X by X timeframe and they dont, its called a lie

[plain prairie]

Dont say that brother, you will be warning too 😂

[past mica]

and they should expect critical feedback when that happens

well i just said the word and didnt get a warning, so it clearly isnt automated

you cant bs a bser

typical discord tho, ill be taking a break

[safe valve]

yes it got manually executed
AI is just used as a helping tool

[past mica]

then dont try to sell it as otherwise, its insulting to peoples intelligence

[safe valve]

i didn't

[past mica]

, you failed to make mention that it was manually executed, you tried leading people to believe the AI did it all on its own

i blamed you for warning him and you blamed the AI

ridiculous

this mod is so defensive, sorry if you had a bad christmas dude

[plain prairie]

this seems a lie to me, but only me has warning...

[safe valve]

you blamed me for the reasoning and i told you it was ai delivering it.

[past mica]

you didnt say it was AI deliverying it, dont add words to the past

[past mica]

you literally just lied again, please take a break, respectfully, youre digging yourself into a hole for no reason

[safe valve]

lol

i just read it again... to me it looks fine

[past mica]

where did you say the AI delivered it then?

I must have missed that part

https://tenor.com/view/crickets-gif-12874518

[safe valve]

wana hang me up becaus missed an "an" because i wrote fast.
feel free to do so and enjoy yourself 😄

[past mica]

what post are you talking about?

the word "an" would have made 0 difference, this is going way over your head

you were blamed for the warning, you blamed the ai, and then you later admitted you manually executed it

like bruh

[plain prairie]

In fact, you are just a portrait of the team, and your attitudes here say a lot about the course of the game too, peace. Dont make excuses, you know exactly you have been done.

[past mica]

we dont care about if AI delivered it or not, the AI wouldnt have delivered it unless you told the AI to, so YOU ISSUED THE WARNING

[safe valve]

the same as you

[past mica]

good mods are really good at deescalating situations, youre doing the opposite, what does that say about your performance?

your ego is way too big man

[safe valve]

believe it or not.
There are #✍〕rules in this discord.
If i feel someone violated the rules i use ai as helping tool to ensure myself it's correct or not.

[past mica]

so the bottom line is, him telling the truth, using a truthful word that you didnt like, triggered you into issuing him a warning...thats the bottom line, quit trying to pretend otherwise...everyone here knows what a template is, i use email templates every day, when i talk to a customer on the phone i dont ask them if they got the email from AI, the email was from me, even though I used an AI template

[plain prairie]

Only they are smart, let them think like that

[past mica]

and then they wonder why nobody with money want to spend money playing the game

they come in here and are gaslighted / treated like children

its honestly pathetic, i think mods do more damage to gaming communities then bad gameplay

im willing to deal with bad gameplay and support games financially even when timelines arent met, im not willing to support games where the mods treat their communities like children

[safe valve]

that's not how it works.
It's not like i'm looking desperatly for a reason to take specific actions on someone.
Many messages get scanned where there is no further action.

[safe valve]

I would argue that this discord is far from treating anyone like children.
It's literally the least moderated discord i've ever been.
But i feel a respectful and constructive way to submit feedback is something everyone can expect and should be expected at least.

[zenith mortar]

Makes sense why I lost

Im great

@winged fox is dash completely broken? 😮

6k gnarl with that augment can't even stand a chance

[winged fox]

No, just under the mystic and slayer)

[violet summit]

gnarl was too under mystic 😴

[winged fox]

slayer accumulates damage. i have 400+ dmg

[violet summit]

yeah, too strong for tanks

not even grit and resolve can stop it

[violet summit]

half the lobby doing water consistently... maybe its time for a change? @zenith mortar @worn tree

[worn tree]

Yes, a nerf to water is coming

[sinful hornet]

rake is the problem

well and rypterus cardulox obviously, but without rake you can outposition, with rake you either get fucked by rake or synalph

[worn tree]

Thylacine is overperforming a bit, but it's not the main issue with water.

Water as a standalone is very strong, plus it has toxic in it which is now broken, and it has thylacine overperforming slightly. All this things converging on water synergy make it very strong.

[worn tree]

Exactly

[violet summit]

I tried stopping 9 water with counters such as air and nature and its still very difficult

you need luck with augments

so def its broken
no wonder why everyone is going after it

[jade pecan]

NERFFFFF incoming

[sinful hornet]

is toxic 2 no emblem bugged too or is it doing intended dmg?

[fallen vortex]

Toxic is bugged

[sinful hornet]

rogues are way worse than the water comp btw, that one's at least just bugged

@wicked hedge if you are playing 3 toxic and you have 100 hp and you think it is right .... GG man

[west plume]

I'll be honest if I get 3 toxic.iam 100% using it

While emoting

Hard

[wicked hedge]

I had it unused for a lot of games in the end, got it mid game when i was supposed to get lights chosen, but it bugged out and took the first augment. u saw for yourself that in the final, it was on the bench. and i ripped you apart, with one less legendary augment 😉 Get good brotha

[valid stirrup]

it is ok you guys can play

just it is no correct

thati si all

[west plume]

Especially against Rich

That reminds me I need to get the Noob Emote

Congrats to all the Qualifying players

@worn tree I think you should start banning people who play 3 matches in a row with 9 water LOL

[zenith mortar]

Wen balance patch @worn tree

Low key the game was at its best in the initial phase where we had the meta with phosphorus arcanite in the arena. Thinking back it’s kinda crazy that the balance was on point from the get go and got worse after only with each following patch 😅

i have made a decision not to take part in this Tournament Qualifier,and instead shifted focus to help others get in.

A Selfless act i know,but iam here for the community

The word Hero was mentioned.

We have the 6th qualified player for "The Grinders" finals. gg @fluid raptor

Don't hate the player, hate the game. I'll play 9 water 4 toxic any chance I get 🤣

In which channel should we post the screenshots?

[twilit storm]

it s on the rules

@severe steeple just hop into HYPE Discord...and you will find the gauntlet-grinders-qualifiers channel

[severe steeple]

can't find anything on this hyperion academy channel!
can we make things a little bit more complicated? every tournament a new mystery in Illuvium!

[safe valve]

pinged you in that channel

[turbid osprey]

You need to verify yourself to be able to see channels on the discord server

There should be a big button "verify"

the fact that in 15 hours i can't go one goddamn game without a crash or a bug is honestly insane 4 months into arena

@sinful hornet since i tried memreduct my crashes are down 90%

with these settings

[sinful hornet]

i have 64 ram and 16 vram 😐

[twilit storm]

[plain prairie]

ok, its possible the same error for w11 pro?

[twilit storm]

ye

I don t know guys..but it worked for me...from smashing my screen after the 1000th crash..to a just few crashes per day

[plain prairie]

i analyse some source of crashes provide by unreal engine and dont find anything wrong, its difficult to search a resolutin without a diagnostic
