very lucky game

also behmoth damage scale of health

Very very soon!

[whole galleon]

hey thats me 😄

[lime cloak]

So this is in round 10.... 3xbroken augment on Monkier 🤣

but if you don't hit your units, it's not guarantied win. 😁

[prisma yarrow]

beating him at its own game

[tawny dove]

Will be fun to see how different the gameplay will be when tournaments are back. Right now every decent player seem to hit almost any build they want. Thats gonna be so different with 8 player lobbies.

[lime cloak]

Or just need to have a few players holding some of the units... if you know what the player is going to play 😉
(gg GoofyRhamphyre)

[prisma yarrow]

I don't control other players but well played

[ebon aspen]

can we ban WarfitgtherHYPE how pathetic you have to be to collect same 5 broken augments

[ebon aspen]

no point of playing at this point

[safe valve]

honestly my last 10 games or so i saw nobody abusing the 3 same augment thing.
Was pleasantly surprised of the community

[ebon aspen]

I had a chance to collect 3-4 of them easy but ......

[ebon aspen]

can we please don't go for Umbre 🤣 too strong

[west musk]

Rng rarely gives me something like that

[ebon aspen]

I see it almost 90% everything time i fuse them

[west musk]

Lucky

Must be tempting

[safe valve]

what do you wish i should play? 🙂

[safe valve]

round 5 he already has it 😄

[ebon aspen]

wtffff

[hot pond]

There’s really no point in playing then with that augment bug is there? Haven’t been playing much for the last couple days

[wintry geode]

Don't be mad, I just wanted to try it out xD

Still got rekt by @safe valve

[ebon aspen]

just wait till they fix this trust me

[hot pond]

Does rhamphyre one shot everything with 3 of those augments btw?

Or is it only AD for auto hits

[ebon aspen]

I think its for ADs

[safe valve]

your deck and skill should be strong enought to still have your fun.
Just get rekt when you face fox i guess.

[safe valve]

https://giphy.com/gifs/TEcDhtKS2QPqE

[ebon aspen]

is Fox everything lvl60s?

[hot pond]

Well I will play some matches tomorrow or so to see

[safe valve]

not everything i think.
But he does have a couple lvl 60 comps

[safe valve]

there are really many people not abusing it.
So far i've seen like 5 accounts doing it and just 2 of them every game i encounter them.

[west musk]

[hot pond]

I think I’ve seen the mud dude use it against me but didn’t really notice it because his positioning is like a bot every time the same thing without any movement

[ebon aspen]

[west musk]

Nice. This one filling up pretty good.

[hot pond]

He doesn’t even need to bond for frost berserker and rather keep a dead dust synergy on ranger 😂

[hazy trench]

New to Arena, is there no way to play against bots or do any sort of training matches to understand how to play?

[ashen mango]

Welcome, you can play in casual VS bots

[hazy trench]

Got it, thanks! Just queue up casual and if it doesn't fill in x amount of time it'll autofill or something?

[ashen mango]

Yeah, you can face real players in casual as well but usually they play in ranked

Yes I can't say I enjoyed being on the receiving end of that 😅

[gloomy mural]

its still broken in 2026? xD

[hot pond]

Apparently this augment combination of 3x is multiplying attack value more than it should. With 2 it doesn’t stack as much

Should be pretty easy to solve tho. Don’t know if other augments cause similar issues though 😆

[hot pond]

I wanted to see rhamphyre one shot your corner but couldn’t find him 😂😂

all these guys usuing broken augments, sad......

[wintry geode]

Hey guys, how about we make a gentleman's agreement about how many of that broken augment we can use until this is fixed? How about 2?

[ebon aspen]

waching live a game on twitch and see guys using 3 augments

[wintry geode]

So you would allow even 3?

[ebon aspen]

me🤣 1 only

I don't use any at all once they said it was broken

[wintry geode]

By the way, this could be a natural limitation of the game - that you cannot have more than X same augments.

[ebon aspen]

next game?

[west musk]

[safe valve]

gg

[ebon aspen]

6/8

GL everyone

what a lobby

[safe valve]

need 3 of them stacked up on one illuvial for it to bug out.
1 or 2 are just normal augments.
At least from what i know, haven't actually tried it myself

[open ibex]

watching slyen casting ur game, that umbre 🤣 🤣

[wintry geode]

Let's check it this game, just for fun 🤣

[safe valve]

wrecked me totally 😄

[ebon aspen]

gg

that was intense

[safe valve]

yea.. so unlucky just getting psion augments out of the boxes... only thing you can't use as natur corner

[ebon aspen]

need better lvl illuvials for myself :/

[safe valve]

that can possibly be rough for the next time with ow shut down.
Maybe the exp for $ or burn illuvials will come live in some shape or form

[ebon aspen]

Nope, you give me 80% discount on your extras 👀

My deck doesnt even show up in top 50 huh?

[safe valve]

curious where prices will go without ow...

[safe valve]

it does not?

[ebon aspen]

Unless im blind, how do you check ?

[safe valve]

i check illuvirank... but it's just a rough estimation.
Some weird calcs in there

can just put in your passport adress and it shows you what rank you are

[ebon aspen]

found my rank 243 no wonder I cant win a game

[safe valve]

haha i just checked aswell... it's a solid score tho.
Totally depends on what you actually have now to be competitive.
Like if you are just missing flex but have like 2-3 strong teams with high levels and stats, you are good to go for competitive play

looking a bit closer, you do have a bunch of high levels...

[ebon aspen]

sshould have some good 60lvl with stats

[safe valve]

i do understand now why you like to play nature corner 😄 It really fits your strong illuvials the best.

[ebon aspen]

look at my Phyriox lvl60

[safe valve]

i've seen it, that guy is a beast

🔥

[ebon aspen]

but never use it 🤣

[safe valve]

lol have to in nature corner... at least how i play nature corner 😄

snake behind a wall of solid tanks is one of the most dangerous plays i feel.
Also gives you the arcanite for your potential phosphorus

[ebon aspen]

Mahtu and Twine , Goloaght rek corner i think with stuns

[safe valve]

just means you go insane mode a little slower

[ebon aspen]

mt t2 nature Empath Lynx is a beast

[safe valve]

and don't even need scoriox... but if you hit that phosphorus with arcanite it's pretty much over for any comp. Except you face some insane stat/lvl difference

[safe valve]

haven't actually tried... my lynxes are so weak 😄
But i've seen insane tank lynxes, kinda makes sense with their omega ability.
No doubt empath is still great aswell.

[mighty tulip]

As gross as it is it ain't the player's fault. We need it patching asap

[ebon aspen]

lvl60

[jolly whale]

That is filthy!

[ebon aspen]

For got sakes ban these players for abusing that augment or just remove from the pool till it is fixed, another example of TRASH ( 2 auto hits does almost 3k damage

Junior3 you are TRASH period, enjoy this while it lasts cause after you will be at the bottom

[safe valve]

i know it can be very frustrating, but lets try to keep it respectful ser 🙂

[ebon aspen]

Usually trash gets thrown away and not kept around the house 😂

[viral marsh]

i tell about this decision: remove from the pool. it's 2 min thing. not need made new patch or something.
same as they remove some regions in live.
but who care about 30 players.

[prisma yarrow]

Junior3 is having a little hard time lately

even if Junior3 use triple aug. combo every games, he is still way easier for me to beat than these 2 that I have never won against @safe valve or @viral marsh

[mighty tulip]

The best we can do is keep talking about it and sharing our frustration with the team. I've pinged nil several times already about this issue I suggest more people do the same. We have to put pressure on the team to fix this asap.

Don't call out the player, call out the game.

[jolly whale]

This augment bug has killed my desire to play.

Now I make sure I get at least 3 every game, but I keep them spread out. If my opponent uses the bug, I use it too

[viral marsh]

ye. i tell about my feeling once a day.
not think have do it more often

[prisma yarrow]

I am the only one hating the flow of the game been cut over and over ? i hate that way more than the triple augment

[ebon aspen]

6/8

[prisma yarrow]

when you have to way 20 second after killing your opponent to fast and cant move, or replace your autment.... but you can fuse them when they are not on the board etc. so weird to me

[jolly whale]

I think they will have a patch for us very soon after migration complete! All will be well. Just have to be patient a little longer

[ebon aspen]

7/8 come get some

[prisma yarrow]

i hate dying cause I could not place myself properly, or buy fast enough or replace the augment may be it wont change anything most of the time on my position but would enjoy executing the strategy that I would want more than loosing or winning

[prisma yarrow]

may be I should run

[ebon aspen]

gogog

[prisma yarrow]

RNG is destroying me this game

i won 2 . 5 vs 8

fuck rolling 70 gold not getting my gnar

[prisma yarrow]

you get blotto and I cant get mime game decided to make you win

[ebon aspen]

what a game holly molly

[prisma yarrow]

this RNG was so stupid

[ebon aspen]

that sucks

[prisma yarrow]

at the end I just wanted to try colossus

[ebon aspen]

Bull Colosussus is almost unkillible it will get to 10k health

[prisma yarrow]

i rolled 70 gold and 30 gold to try to get that last one for gnar....

[west musk]

3/8

if anyone feelin irie

[safe valve]

The day of your victory will come my friend 🙂

[viral marsh]

seems hard game for him. freaking rng not give 9th pulse reactor.
1 day you can win.

[viral marsh]

and 1 more.
i think it's enough illuvium for me today.

[frank moon]

@worn tree wen wake up patch

[hot pond]

People seem to like that orange augment with mud

[zenith mortar]

wen 1v1

whos gonna lose to me first

im taking numbers

first person to beat me wins something from ||@dark scaffold||wallet

[safe valve]

I don't like 1v1 cardgames anymore but would play one just to wreck you 😆

[zenith mortar]

im talking ascendent

[ebon aspen]

Just for a warm up I will take you down

[viral marsh]

new ascendent seems strange.
mud/air/rogue - will be meta.
no way play around tier-4-5 units.
if all stay same as i see.

[twilit storm]

@viral marsh I think @worn tree is cooking.
He ll add some "spice" to the soup I guess.

[viral marsh]

i mean - it will be still gauntlet, but 1-1 with eco.
if game end in 4-8 turns/8min - no way you can go in to lvl7-9 and roll for tier-4-5 stage 3 units.
you will be destroyed of early synergy.

[zenith mortar]

https://tenor.com/view/trinidad-james-dont-believe-me-just-watch-gif-9186862

[safe valve]

Gimme access and suffer, ser 🙃

[west musk]

I feel these issues would be solved with full people lobbies

you only get mud easy, or any comp easy, when there are only 2-3-4 people and rest bots

6-8 real people make mud less viable and easier to contest

6 people cane easily steal a mud unit or other and ruin mud life

[worn tree]

Theres an effect overhaul incoming for most synergies and augments in game

[hot pond]

It’s not about mud, it’s that augment on 3x being an issue

[prisma yarrow]

not proud of this Rai-lee

with 3 templar

[outer surge]

Holy crap we found Robin Hood the Rai-Lee

Stealing stats from the rich and sharing it to the weak

[prisma yarrow]

next I will try it on fernite I guess

[lime cloak]

that's it... not going to play any more until this get fixed. It's becoming too stupid, with this bug abuse some people are playing every singel time.

[west musk]

how does he get so many of the circles every timer sheesh

[outer surge]

Went Glass Cannon 3 and almost still won. I mean if I'm going to get one tapped anyway whats another 10%?

[prisma yarrow]

colossus is hard to do

[outer surge]

So close

[prisma yarrow]

i have been trying for ever now, i want to make it, make 5 stage 3 t1 before giving up on the bull

game after game after game that I try to do colosus feel liks bugged RNG wont give it even if no one block its

that makes me so mad, that I don't care about people using the triple augment, i am not trying to win i am trying to get a goal

[outer surge]

It's frustrating to try and get because each of the Colossus Illuvials are very highly used and fit in on almost every team.

You rarely ever get a clean shot at rolling for them

[prisma yarrow]

i had it in this game

the works is I made 2 t1S3 more than i wanted trying to be patient for the bull, something feels so weird, when 2 guys can get a blotto each but there is not even 10 bull in the entire game

another guy had a bull at the beginning... so 9+1 is 10

[viral marsh]

it's bear time now.
ofk you rarely meet bull around this time .

[prisma yarrow]

at it end of the game I get it, how do you think I did 5 t1S3

I roll most at 50% chance

[viral marsh]

sometimes shop give units for free(without rolls). and sometimes you can't build even S2 after 5-7 rolls

it's me at turn 8 - try build any early sinergy with my empath weapon.

and in other game you can got T1S2 at turn 3.

[prisma yarrow]

at turn 8 i dough that you rolled much yet

for some reason we can make muds all day no problem

[arctic turtle]

I've been trying to get it on stream but it just too hard. I can get to 3 but haven't been able to get to 4 either because I can't get the beetle to S3 or i don't get a compound synergy augment

[arctic turtle]

Mud rng is too high

[prisma yarrow]

never made it to 3 even rolling 100 gold for gnarl, I had blotto and my opponent end up finishing his blotto too. sometime its just beyond crazy and beyond reasonable stats expectation.

[arctic turtle]

Im hoping Acendent fixes the rng problem but after hearing that it will still have the shop im doubtful. I loved making teams and less randomness to what you get

[prisma yarrow]

one way to fix it, give the option to finish the last for one 25 gold

so when you have 8 of a kind you can buy the last one for sure for 25 gold

[arctic turtle]

Another way could be that if you had a S2 it would give you a better chance to find more of that illuvial

[safe valve]

8.5k with just 2 collossus 😄

[arctic turtle]

Not even colossus

It was against mud so attack is gone

[safe valve]

22k... that's cheating, ser

[prisma yarrow]

i though i was winning until he switch to the triple aug with 12 life, but I don't care, cause i could not finish the comb that I wanted the first place even if nobody was blocking it

[prisma yarrow]

I think I should go read the omega of that bull again

[prisma yarrow]

if he is 20k life than what, you try to pet him a bit and you die

[safe valve]

you usually don't play harbinger caradulox.
You need to reroll on low levels, and if you do that with water comp in a competitive lobby it means you don't get synalph/umbre and you get wrecked. Only other comp would be air which comes to my mind, and playing air you get wrecked anyways since it's so weak 😄

[prisma yarrow]

24 sec to wait... OMG cant do what I want but have to wait like that

did I just won my first battle

[prisma yarrow]

i was beating up everyone else baldly but you

i didnt faced that

[safe valve]

yea i lost against that too... wrong positioning and my umbre got targeted 😄

[west musk]

6/8

@vivid stone hath dubbed it...

[worldly remnant]

all S3

[worn tree]

Hopefully, we are addressing a technical issue.

[worn tree]

Really simplified: a system that lets you pick 1 illuvial line as your "hero" and you start the game with it.

[fallen vortex]

ohhhh that sounds pretty fun tbh

[wide eagle]

Isn't this why we will have a ladder? So that a guy trying ascendant would not be matched against a hardcore collection player?

I think you guys are overthinking the ownership part.

Players start in OW/MMO, obtains some basic illuvials, tries their luck in arena, win some lose some, realizes there is room for improvement and goes back to farming/progressing/dex.

There is enough decent illuvials on the market for viable cheap comps, or some players will choose to go as self found. In any case the ownership part is your biggest component and what's most likely to hook people and create stickiness. Ascendant 1v1 is the perfect mode for that.

What is more likely to hinder onboarding is if you do 1v1 gauntlet. It is not going to gain traction even with the hero lines. In my opinion at least

We need to have a mode where players can choose which units they want to use on demand instead of rng. This should be the ownership mode. If players spend 100$ on a unit, they would want to use it on demand. Waiting for rng and not getting it will always be frustrating, unless you own everything

[twilit storm]

downloading..Ascendant here I am

https://tenor.com/view/yoda-gif-25697311

[safe valve]

@worn tree
what does active ownership actually mean?
is it those set in teamplaner--> Ownership, or does it check the collection and picks highest levels for each illuvial to calculate the rangers level?

[worn tree]

It only takes into account those picked in the team planner. Those that are "Active" in the game.

[worldly token]

waiting in ranked queue in testnet for someone to test ascendand

cant find any games 🙁

[viral marsh]

rip max treshold...
rip Junior with his mud.

gl everyone on nature-templar-colosus-arcanite.

and for testnet - we can't test things with our own illuvials - right?
it will be 2 different games play with lvl1 0 stats, and in actual game.
what we will test? new augs? - no real feeling of game.

[frank moon]

just send the patch to mainnet. There are no rewards active and the game was already broken before so no worries

[jolly whale]

Is it just me or does air changing from dodge to energy resistance sound really lack luster?

[viral marsh]

btw with this x7 bonus exp - you will got 140k exp every game+-.
you can play 20 games every day+-.
in 2 days you got 1 team to max lvl.
in 20 days you can got 100 illuvials to lvl60.
good news for every ownership collectors i gues? xD

[arctic turtle]

Im not sure how I feel about things starting to be over simplified i really enjoyed where it was and the new "Acendent" is just 1v1 quick game gauntlet not Acendent. I haven't played yet and hopefully ill feel different but from what I read it doesn't look good

[dull wind]

I think we should stop calling this Ascendant when it's basically Gauntlet 1v1

[hot pond]

Boycott to the damn gauntlet shop. Give me a proper deck builder back

[twilit storm]

where s the teamplanner @worn tree

we want an autochess kind of game , no more texas holdem plsss

[viral marsh]

you need 2 stage2 for stage3 - it's good thing.
but still not sure you can play around tier-4-5 units

[twilit storm]

If the testnet build is not broken, I would love to cook a "carnage swiss format" event soonish, nothing too serious..just to test how it feels.

[arctic turtle]

Let's just bring back original Acendent and adjust what ever is needed to make it playable. if players don't want to spend time making a deck in a team builder then they can go play gauntlet

[twilit storm]

yeah

[worldly token]

@jolly whale gg, feels very different to arena - almost too fast 😄

[twilit storm]

the deck building was so fascinating, remember the top tiets class tutorial videos by @bronze spire

[jolly whale]

Could definitely use another couple rounds!

Thinknit was over in 4 rounds, almost no chance for late game strategy

[fierce glacier]

ummm 🧐

[fierce glacier]

Perhaps it should be somewhat less powerful, like 2x and 4/5x

[fierce glacier]

Let´s see it. I think the system is as complicated as before, but each component is easier to understand. As long as there are synergies, affinities, components, weapon, armor, etc. it will still be complicated

[bronze spire]

The good ol days

[fierce glacier]

It seems a bit cheap to me on the high side. 200 Fuel for 1 week seems ok I think but 4k for 90 days and 7x is a x30 for XP and x20 in price, a bonus of 50%. Probably 30/40% would be better, 40$ is not much for 3 months of 7x boost.

One needs a name change?

[hot pond]

There were so many nuances and little things to strategize I loved it. Even where you needed to think which Synergy needs to be the dominant one added more strategic depth which got lost fully

[twilit storm]

ascendant anyone?

[fierce glacier]

I´m reading it right that in ascendant mode you would have to win twice with 8 Illuvials alive and one with 9 to defeat someone in 3 rounds? if you cannot use 8 Illuvials from round 1/2, you would need 4 anyway. Even loosing 2 each one (4 rounds), does maths allows for a 5 round game? I mean, the additional 1 dmg per Illuvial doesn´t seem important
Perhaps loosing 20 and 2/3 per Illuvial would make for more variation in the quantity of rounds.

[viral marsh]

verdant heal 30-50hp, not %. when your unit have 5k hp, seems...interesting

[viral marsh]

start already?

probably have take a look for this stage-3 augs

bloom seems nice. when it's trigered every second/instead every 5 second

[safe valve]

i feel it's just too much exp for too less money, and should rather go in the direction of a continuous revenue inflow for a long time.
leveling up is currently the only progression system and make everyone max out for 40 bucks in 1 month kinda misses the revenue and also shortens the experience of progression massively.
At a first glance, it appears as if it was calculated with the old exp we got in arena which was if i remember right arround 6k a game.

[twilit storm]

gg @dull wind i do really like the fast paced action

[dull wind]

gg 👊

the fast pace is nice, but this game mode doesn't really appeal to me

[viral marsh]

half of synergy's static numbers.
half of synergy's %.
drone augments not reworked.
half of composit synergy's useless.
no more stats on augs made feels game slower, but it's without stats/lvls. not sure it will be same in live.

when next patch?

[wild kiln]

Is this true? 👀

[safe valve]

roughly i think yes.

it's not completely true, since you still have the high tier high stage problem getting not so many exp since they get onto the board late. but your t1/2/3 are up on lvl 60 pretty quickly

probably more like 3 days... but that doesn't make it any better 😄

[wild kiln]

I wonder based on exactly which criteria we adjusted this balance and whether it's strictly unchangeable... there is almost a 1000% difference compared to before 🤷

I hope the fuel costs I saw above will be changed *

[viral marsh]

you still have play 20-30 games every day. and win/get 2nd place most of time to get this amount of exp.

[wild kiln]

I could also play randomly, couldn't I? I’ll just close my eyes / play the arena on my second monitor in a small window—even if I consistently finish 5th or 7th in every match, it would only take 12-15 minutes... that's incredibly fast progression for (t0 / t1 / t2)

[turbid osprey]

I brought this up in IMC, if needed ill make a thread

This is still on testnet so it should be easy to adjust

[viral marsh]

you not got so much exp.
probably for losed round you got 0 exp

[wild kiln]

Hmm, is that so? That's interesting. When I last tried the arena for t0s, I played 2 matches only with them / I won some rounds -- I lost some rounds. I finished 5th and if I'm not mistaken, I earned 9k exp for 7 illuvials... that didn't seem bad to me

[viral marsh]

my max exp for 1st place: 29k. - vs 2-4 players with lvl50-60 overall
my lowest exp for 1st place: 16k. even when won every round. vs 7 bots.
if not 1st place(2nd-3rrd): 14-16k exp, depend how much rounds won.

don't know yet, what it's depend of.
probably of other players lvls. probably of rounds win. probably of something else.

[ashen mango]

I wasn't a fan of the previous ascendant mode but I think that I preferred it

[safe valve]

it's not live yet, so changese should be possible.
I would rather see the multipliers changed than the prices, low prices make you think f those 2 dollars it's not even half a coffee... and you just spend it.
Might even delete the 7x completely.

And i feel we should go back to the old exp amount (or something in between old amount and new amount) we had in arena, so people actually start spending.

[safe valve]

not a fan of 1v1 cardgames in general anymore... too scripty.
But yea, old ascendant felt better.

[ashen mango]

Is it finished?
We can play a game if you want but we should avoid playing bloom as it's broken

[wild kiln]

It's still not finished; ınternet infrastructure here is horrible

[fierce glacier]

yes, may be x3 or x5 at most

[mighty tulip]

Updating I'll be in soon too 💪

[worn tree]

Indeed it is, the proc should be every 5 seconds instead of every 1 second. We will fix this.

[lime cloak]

haven't tested the new 1v1 yet... but also think there could be a way to make it a bit more interesting...
I was thinking about something like this

Each game start by each player Choosing 3 Illuvials (2 from T1-3, and 1 from T4-5), these will have 50% increased bonus change to appear in the shop... after choosing the 3 favorite Illivials (you will see what you opponent choose), you choose to "Ban" one Illuvial from your opponent shop. this can not be any of the 3 that was chosen as favorite.

It's fairly simple, but I think that could make for some more interesting gameplay 😄

[mighty tulip]

It's not bad @ashen mango you do seem to live or die by the shop rng 😅

[ashen mango]

https://tenor.com/view/jarvis-jarvis-skill-issue-skill-issue-gif-24471438

[worn tree]

Are you guys doing rankeds or casuals in Ascendant?

[ashen mango]

I think that at this point you can ship it on mainnet, there's almost no one playing anyways so might as well make it interesting @worn tree

[ashen mango]

We are playing ranked

Just fix bloom before and it should be good

I mean as long as there isn't any huge bug that kill the economy like one that gives 1000x more xp

[wild kiln]

ranked @worn tree

[worn tree]

I have been on queue for almost 6 mins, if we don't get matched is probably because I am not on the right build.

You guys in this one?

[wild kiln]

Yes, I just played a game with Ghamster

[safe valve]

even 5x is a ton with current xp. We should also not forget that from 1-50 is way less exp and you get like 80% of the level bonus... +stage 3 start at default level 40...

[ashen mango]

Oops sorry @mighty tulip I forgot that I had bloom on my ranger

[safe valve]

forgot... lol

I have the impression that the double cast didn't trigger after killing Cardulox

Well I had enough for today

It's not my game

I think that there is some potential if we get inspiration from Mechabellum

[worn tree]

GG @wild kiln

[wild kiln]

[worn tree]

@mighty tulip fun one hahahaha

[mighty tulip]

Haha yeah you caught my little bear position at the end 😅. GG

[worn tree]

That bear was sneaky hahahahaha 😄

[viral marsh]

1-1 Feels so randomly.
even more that gauntlet.
your opponent got 1-2 T1S2 with 1 roll, and you not > he will win 2 rounds = -40-50hp.
and if you not come back at 3rd turn - it's game for you. and comeback or not depend only what you got in rolls.

[worn tree]

I think the opposite, it's less random.

You can consistently plan against your opponent. And get the agency to decide not to spend to see what he goes for first to counter him.

[wild kiln]

I liked new Ascendant. I never tried the old version, and I haven't played much in the Arena over the past year

This feedback might be valuable for the team; you can consider me a new player

• I didn't feel the need to over-strategize.
• Short duration / fast-paced gameplay.
• The feeling that I can improve through practice.
• I played 4 games, and trying different combinations in each one was enjoyable.

In a way, it feels like a space that could serve as a "custom game" mode for new players—though I'm sure the team has their own plans for its development

[viral marsh]

i say not about game strategy.
but about shop scam you. i have 1 pho at lvl8, spend 20 golds on rolls>got only 1 more.
same for early game - your opponent lucky and with 1-3 rolls got 2-5 S2, and you not - it will be game, no chance to comeback with -25-30hp every lose.

[mighty tulip]

I'm not a fan of 2 gold to move an illuvial. It punishes certain teams such as the one I played against you significantly more imo. Also I'm not exactly sure what problem it's trying to solve.

[fallen vortex]

Aye y'all fixed umbre finally

The untargettable was dumv

[fallen vortex]

Free movement is the dumbest thing that was ever in ascendant. Had it not existed in the first place, ascendant would have always been good

If U like 1v1 autobattlers I recommend you try out mechabellum, it's the gold standard

[worn tree]

The reason being is that otherwise positiong between rounds would be a full coinflip. Now moving has an implicit tax, which means you need to be weary of where you position. And you know a full switch on your opponent is worth 10 credits +

[fallen vortex]

Exactly

I haven't read to the ascendant part but I would have made it scaling

[mighty tulip]

I think all that we're encouraging is building teams that don't rely on position all that much. Mainly fighters and rogues.

[worn tree]

That was my initial take as well, but for the sake of simplicity. I decided 2 credits flat

[fallen vortex]

Move 1 is free. Move 2 costs 2, .move 3 costs 4

Etc

[fallen vortex]

I'd be down to hear a suggestion? But free movement coinflippy bullshit is not the answer

[mighty tulip]

Give players one or two free positioning tokens per game to use on any planning phase they wish. Using the token allows you to move everything for that planning phase for free.

[fallen vortex]

One 'save yourself' token sounds kinda fun

The UX for it's a nightmare but I think it's a cool idea

@worn tree I've never understood the 2 reroll thing.

Rerolls should mostly be capped at once, at 2+ it actually grants zero benefit.

It's essentially the same thing as just giving like 8 options or whatever

1 reroll grants a choice moreso on which item to not reroll, and adds a little bit of strategy

[mighty tulip]

You could even have it notify your opponent on use. So you could use the token and move or use it to bluff a move

[dull wind]

if I was designing Ascendant it would be something like:

• simple team planner with just illuvials and ranger weapon
• ranger weapons unlocked via playing by levelling the ranger
• drone augments but just with 1 re-roll option
• live positioning
• illuvial movement with cost scaling
• remove the battle board and put the grid on the map terrain

[fallen vortex]

I like this

[fallen vortex]

If we do add the team planner back in, we would need some rng system to avoid flowchart.

Could be interesting to either do card draw or a unique shop system

A limited shop

[lime cloak]

I think I would also prefer Live positioning, with illuvial movement with cost scaling.

But also that it could add some extra if each player started the match by

• Choosing 3 favorite Illivials (giving it increased chance to appear in shop)
• Choose to "Ban" one Illuvial from your opponent shop. (can not be any of the 3 that was chosen as favorite).

[safe valve]

movement costs were added in ascendant a couple patches before it was taken offline.

[mighty tulip]

It certainly doesn't feel good closing off small gaps in your corner comp because a rogue snuck in last round. End up paying 10 gold reorganise you're illuvials to close a awkward gap

Screw it I'll play fighters next time 😅

Whatever happened to increasing the hex sizedon the battle board anyway? Perhaps the solution is making positioning matter less not cost more

[safe valve]

yea i don't like it either. but just played 2 matches, really not my cup of tea in general.

Try empaths, either shields are bugged or completely busted... at least feels like after playing 2-3 gauntlet games. 😄

[viral marsh]

empath now give shields only 1 time. but it's % of HP. in levi with stats, shields will be even bigger.

[safe valve]

think it's every time a teammate faints, right?
Having blazenite in the backline with his templaar speed getting shielded i think it's pretty strong. Have to try it out myself tho.
Also felt like for example rhamphyre omega didn't deal any damage to shields, so i guess they are bugged somehow

[viral marsh]

don't see it's work on faint.

if so - it will be even stronger. 25% shield every time someone die?

[safe valve]

i think that's how it works yea

enemy blazenite was fully shielded, no visible hp bar enymore just a big white bar

[viral marsh]

but in synergy - nothing about faint.
it's just say - your team get shields on start of fight.
or i'm wrong?

[safe valve]

maybe i'm switching it up 😄

[safe valve]

just hopped into a casual game.
And it is when a ally faints that team gets shields

[viral marsh]

nice. 5 empath = 25% shield on faint
and 2 enchanter 40hp(not %) healing every 8 sec.

[safe valve]

playing templar/empath...seems like it's enough to win the game 😄
Will try to add some spore so my backline becomes unkillable 😄

[viral marsh]

you sure spore good choice?

[safe valve]

with 3 spore it's 25%atk damage 😄

and 25 OP

[viral marsh]

for 5 second

[safe valve]

yea

but on any faint

you and your opponents illuvials

[viral marsh]

when 3 berserk hit with %dmg, do they care about lose some ad for 5second...

[west musk]

so what's the verdict so far?

fun? no fun?

Updating testnet now

[viral marsh]

impossible understand everything without stats/lvls.
all just so slow.

[safe valve]

idk seems you can't kill the shields...

[viral marsh]

tell it to sinalph with 3 Amplifying Omega Reactor

not sure if it's work with his omega. but still snake will destroy this shields with it

[safe valve]

synalph pretty strong... tried it already. You get decent OP now with psion.

[viral marsh]

psion. xD.
5 empath, 5 bulwark, 5 nature. and 5 psion. xD

[safe valve]

even killed a bloom phosphorus

spore really nice i feel

[west musk]

ascendant anyone?

[lilac grove]

[west musk]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-awkward-gif-17846653676727767557

Is there no one testing... sheesh

[scarlet spindle]

It's hard for me to decide what I think. It seems someone had an uno reverse card thrown into the ai when re selecting omega and composite effects lol. What were offensive are now defensive and vice versa! It's making my head spin. lol

So many units that I had specific uses for no longer do that thing I used them for.

This will be the time when new players can shine, because they can learn as is while we have to unlearn and re-learn.

Tell your friends!

[fallen vortex]

i dont remember this at all, and find that doubtful tbh

maybe they did, but I'd love to see proof

[mighty tulip]

Why is there 3 seconds of invulnerability as an augment when granite is a thing? I thought we'd all agreed that needed to go 😅

[safe valve]

after like 4-5 games of gauntlet on testnet, it kinda feels a little dull.

• The augment depth got lost with removing the additional stats and the effects we have now. The OmegaPower augments feel underwhelming. And i'm not sure it's good to be able to basically have every game exactly the augments you want with now just having 3 augments each color + the reforger for the orbs
• The synergies max treshold of 5 also doesn't feel great. Instead of building actual teams, it feels like i just throw in random illuvials from 4-5 different classes and synergies to get to as many 5 treshholds as possible which i ended up having like 4-5 on average with a little luck and getting some synergy crates and if i kept loosing in the beginning so the games were not finished fast. Also don't like the proc-requirements we have on some synergies like the faints.
• Balance is hard to tell since we don't play with our own illuvials, but some synergies feel completely busted while others feel very underwhelming, looking at empaths, verdant, fire, berserker, air.

I understand that the goal was simplification, but i feel it got overshot and looking at it in general it feels like a step back in terms of game depth.

[viral marsh]

but now you can decide in mid game, which direction to move.
you build 5 nature, and then see your main opponent/most of lobby play psions - you build extra 5 air.
you see most play rog/fighters - you build extra 5 earth.
play more around much different synergy stage2 on bord. - it's good things.

but on other hands, no big reason of composite chip/rush any big synergy.
before we have special buff when build full treshold, something like big omega/big buff for your team. now even if you build 4 mud 4 berserk you not got something extra cool.
and about simplification - it's looks to much. not need even think to who give fighter/bulwark emblishment, coz everyone got buff from them. same with half augs.

[safe valve]

don't have to believe it 😄
I think they were at some point even pretty massive, costing a % of the units cost

[scarlet spindle]

Yeah people were even exploting removal and positioning to be able to move for free werent they?

[safe valve]

possible, can't remember exactly...

it's been some time 😄

[scarlet spindle]

The winning strat was move when you evolved, because then it counted as a new unit and you can move them freely on the round you place them.

[safe valve]

right... that rings a bell...

[scarlet spindle]

This is an entirely different game. It is nothing like gauntlet other than it uses Illuvials lol.
Come wiggle in it.

[safe valve]

yea the depth with what emblem you throw on which unit got lost too since all the effects are on the whole team

[fallen vortex]

ohhhh, yeah I remember you are right.

But it wasn't meaningful in any way. You had so much currency that you basically could move your entire board every single round anyways.

It didn't do anything, it might as well not have been there

Even now I'd like to see a max move threshold of 2-3, but idk how scarce currency is in ascendant yet

And yeah it had a bunch of exploits

it didn't really exist

it was a fake existence

[safe valve]

if i remember right it was more in the direction of you didn't move at all (except if you evolved) and then in the endgame you were using your credits for movement since you allready evolved most units

[fallen vortex]

yeah and I hated it 😛

the endgame is jsut coinflip

super dumb

no strategy

On paper it looks like this ascendant ends before that point, so maybe better idk

[scarlet spindle]

This new one is like 4 rounds

I don't think anyone has actually played it yet

[safe valve]

isn't that more or less a problematic of 1v1 cardgames in general?

[scarlet spindle]

I did have one game with Ratty D but mostly im waiting 15 mins and going to casual just so I can feel the stuff.

this time im trying to stick it out til someone plays

[fallen vortex]

no they have card draw. And there isn't usually unlimited mana in any sense, they have more and more, but it just enables more expensive cards and a reallocation of resources.

Not complete full RNG

[west musk]

why units move so slow in ascendant?

like watching paint dry

[ashen mango]

Probably because they don't have a movement speed buff since we are not using our illuvials

[west musk]

I get that... but like on youtube you can watch a video 1.25x or 1.5x faster, a global speedup can be applied here so we dont lose our minds

Generally I like the new ascendant... I think it will be easier for new players to practice and learn too

I like that it shares similar mechanics as Gauntlet and is a natural lead in to it... I hope it doesn't go back to deck building mode

[scarlet spindle]

Similar.. ish. You really have to look at things from entirely different angles.

For instance I am used to strategizing how to make the enchanter proc more often.. haste.. energy regen.. augs and planning to maximize your skill (proc enchanter). In the new one, it just does every 8 seconds. So all of that planning and knowledge of how to use it.. poof.

I have found dozens of this, it really is a whole different game.

So, you kinda have to go into it seeing it as an entirely different game and not compare it to Gauntlet or old Ascendent (its not that either, we should call it something else).

[jolly whale]

That's my feeling to, sweeping changes! Everything we know is invalid. Have to start from scratch really.

Is it good or bad, I don't know yet. Much simpler for sure, which should make things good for new players..... but given how much levels and stats have been buffed newbies are gonna get curb stomped out of existence

[scarlet spindle]

I was honestly mad at first, because its not even the same game.. but then I walked away and came bac at it as if I had never played and started learning the new stuff and it is actually quite fun once you get into the swing of it.

More like a round of street fighter than a chess match.

So Live didn't get the new patch yet, only the new stuff on testnet?

so... how doe the 25% 75% untargetable stack if i use 2 on one illuvial? or does it not stack?

[safe valve]

i would assume it doesn't stack

[west musk]

it could...

[safe valve]

yeaw totally

[west musk]

if a unit heals back above 75% then it triggers the second 75%

[safe valve]

maybe

but likely that wouldn't be intended

they just nerfed umbre because he did that.
Very doubtfull they add in augments where you can make any unit you like doing it.

[west musk]

triple unt augment the new meta 😄

ok well... less horrible on potato mode... game feels simpler idk...

I'm happy about ascendant.... I feel like there is a lot of room there for expanding. make games last more than 4 rounds and allow for augs

gauntlet might be rip

[pseudo phoenix]

life💀

[west musk]

bloom is broken rn

[safe valve]

i feel the simplicity they wanted to implement for non-gamer-newcomers isn't achieved. They still get synergies, augments, drone-augments, bonding thrown into the face. Simplifying augments/synergies doesn't helpt that much in that regard, but for sure takes aways depth for the player that has spent a couple days in the game.

[west musk]

totally. had the similar thought on the toilet earlier. cater changes to an audience that isnt even here... ghosts

[lime cloak]

Feel this Ascendant mode still need some tweaking. I am not a fan of the current version. (trying to be open minded and not compare it to the old one).

*To me, it feels almost too fast... I would rather have a few more rounds, with less gold pr round, so is a bit more like Gauntlet.

• I like simplicity, but this might have taken it a bit too far... I fear I will get tired of it too fast. when I get used to the new mechanics. (I don't think the "current live version" is that far form a good spot).
• would prefer if reposition cost 0 for the first one and then increase by 1, each round.
  (its never going to be like the old ascendant anyway, so maybe it's also better to rename it to something like "1v1 gauntlet")

[west musk]

agreed

2/8

test gaunt

[edgy bough]

Is the new XP boost for gauntlet? Or the new test net ascendant?

[scarlet spindle]

I think with the synergies affecting the whole team and just getting stronger with more of them is very basic. Anyone should be able to pick that up. Compared to what we have now you are looking to maximize specific synergies on specific units at specific times etc, much more complicated.

I like this simplified for onboarding in this quick and easy game and I like the specificity of what we have now for the more end game players in Gauntlet.

Simplified in Ascendant I mean. I dont like it that way in Gauntelt

[lime cloak]

Never again!!!!
After next patch they will be gone 😁

[safe valve]

looks like your doka just forged them 😄

[hazy trench]

All other things equal, are Illuvials with TPI = 100 stronger than TPI < 100? Or are there use cases where you'd want < 100 like with Pokemon IVs/EVs?

[ashen mango]

You want some fighters with low MS

And Lynx S1

It's probably more optimal to have low MS on some psions and empaths as well to avoid them from going to the frontline when getting charmed

[hazy trench]

Noted, thanks!

[ashen mango]

You're welcome 🤝
From a speculative viewpoint it's still better to have 100 TPI though, your ranger also gets stronger depending on the TPI of your collection

So purposefully avoiding high MS empaths and psions may not be that beneficial

The incentive to have low MS on them is marginal

I personally mostly look for low MS fighters stage 1 and stage 2

[ebon aspen]

any games up?

[fallen vortex]

Just saying I really like the new Ascendant @worn tree. Big fan of this setup

I actually really like the simplicity of the new synergies too, cbf reading 3 essays every match

Honestly we need a focus group that has never seen Illuvium before, polling the community (myself included) isn't the best strat, if the plan is growth

[ebon aspen]

Updated my driver but can't load the main game, it almost instantly crashes when I try to open it. Is anyone else having this problem or is this a me issue?

[prisma yarrow]

4K for the whole

[worn tree]

Great to know man, I also went through weapons and omega descriptions and made them as short as possible. We had some bibles in the game, and I 100% agree that too long text/effects are extremely bad for UX and onboarding.

[hot pond]

It can also be helpful to have a list of all the things in a wiki or documentation on the homepage for people to read through and not in the hassle of a fight where you only have few seconds to read.
We only have that spreadsheet which is basically obsolete at this point

Can be created with AI in few minutes I assume

[worldly token]

someone down for a round of ascendand?

oooh found a match immediately 🙂

[jolly whale]

I've been here a long time and I still dont understand how damage is calculated. When it says dealing 100(omega) its like....... Voodoo or something

[safe valve]

Due to the slim team currently i think it's way less work for balancing if ascendant uses the same stuff as gauntlet and is not wildly different. You could leave whole features left out i guess to make it more simple.
To me the current patch feels like it might be best packed into a training mode every new player has to play to explain the basics before he is getting set free to do whatever he wants.

Majority of people complaining here the game is being too complex were good after i gave them the link to the public info doc hidden in this channel.
And when i ask what's missing in the tooltips the honest answer was "skipped it". Which makes sense, i always do that too 😄
I'm also not sure how many gamers actually complain about it or who the actually complainers are... we are in web3 and attract a certain audience which have never touched a game before they started "earning" in web3... anything more complex than the axie battle might be too complex...

I can see it being an advantage to shorten text here and there, was really too long for some stuff.
I can even agree with erasing some augments to make the decision simpler and take down the skill ceiling a bit.

But if you really want to make the onboarding experience better, i think we can't get arround a non skipable training fight with tooltips disappearing by click but earliest after like 20 sec. so people just read it because they have nothing better to do anyways. Additionally do the wiki on the homepage as Thanatos mentioned. It's long overdue, first time promised like 2 years ago and it's really low work effort i would assume... create it so it autoupdates from the ingame changes so you never have to touch it again except new stuff is getting implemented.

[fallen vortex]

Sometimes not about the UX of it, but rather if any game cant be broken down to its simplest form and still be fun, its probably not a good game.

Build a simple fun loop and then build on top of it, we havent really found that core loop quite yet, so this is a good way to achieve it

[fallen vortex]

I agree with reducing complexity, but I also agree that gauntlet has never made a true effort at a tutorial or anything along those lines, which should have been critical to releasing it imo.

[worn tree]

Omega is a %.

Having 100 Omega means all skills that scale with omega will do 100% of their damage in description.

So if an omega ability does 500 (Omega) Damage, it means it does 500 damage per 100 OP. If you have 150 OP, it does 750, if you hvae 200 OP, it does 1000.

[safe valve]

have sometimes to read between the lines.
For example in web3 when people say the game is fun, they actually mean they like the money they earn even if the game is dogshit.

In here, 90% of the people telling the game is too complex were actually saying "i don't have time to read all the stuff" which is solved with a wiki

[jolly whale]

See..... Voodoo!! No I get it thanks! I will try to remeber this! I might even reread omega discriptions now!

[ashen mango]

Is it really on the table or just a running gag?

[fallen vortex]

I tend to agree given TfT is also pretty insanely complex.

I will say that the grid/positioning system ultimately took it one level of complexity too far, there's a limit

[ashen mango]

In testnet?

[safe valve]

live positioning for sure takes away a shit ton of time.
In tft, 90% of the matchups you have the same position as before, wheras in gauntlet you feel forced to get an optimal position against the opponent every single time.
Which makes tft a way more relaxed gameplay compared to gauntlet here and therfore you have time to read up on everything during the game.

[ashen mango]

The in-game wiki/encyclopedia would be such a great update

The game needs it

[safe valve]

i think it's more important to have it outside the client so you can read up on stuff when you are not busy playing, or have the tab open while playing

when mmo drops 100% have it ingame

don't see the advantage for gauntlet tho

[ashen mango]

So that players have it right away without having to look for it on their browser

But I guess TFT doesn't have that either so maybe I went to far when saying that the game needs it

[safe valve]

i can see the convenience for more expierenced players.
like for example "damn how does resistance actually effect my illuvial again?" hit w type in resistance and there you have the formula.
But the new player doesn't have time for that and the more experienced player can look it up on the phone or 2nd screen aswell.
Additionally it's probably way easier to build in the browser + we have some web workforce free when the dex is fully up and functional.

[ashen mango]

I was thinking about new players instead, I like theorycrafting before playing a game and it's more convenient to have it on the main menu right away
But I may be a minority

[safe valve]

yea thats true

but then you can also just look it up on the web

• you can look it up in the bathroom, while sitting on the sofa and watching a tv show or while you commute to work

[dusty gust]

[safe valve]

bots seem to learn the new meta fast 😄
5 out of 7 bots went for empath, templar, revenant, spore nature

[hazy trench]

I've been really excited about Illuvium for years. Came back recently and gave Arena a shot. Played 1 game and closed it. No tutorial, way too complex, I had no idea what was doing on. Back to Axie 😛

I also don't really have time as a parent for 30-45 min games on a daily basis and that's a huge detractor from wanting to get involved at all. Why spend all kinds of money on Illuvials and collectibles and such if I can only play 1-2 games per week? I imagine I'm not the only person in the limited-time-boat

[zenith mortar]

Thats why i appreciate the new ascendant mode again

5-8 min games

[hazy trench]

Now that is something I can get behind 😄

Too much unknown on if my baby is going to be awake/crying/etc. in the next 30-40 mins so as small of times as possible is ideal (down to maybe 3-5-8 mins, any shorter would be silly obviously)

[hazy trench]

Is that only on Test still? I don't see that in the app rn

here is some keys

[prisma yarrow]

and how do you use this code

if I search on epic I don't seem to find a testnet

I got this in my library but it made my mainnet stop running

when I installed it few days ago

[safe valve]

the 30-45 min games are no more tho.
Currently it's more arround 25min if you get first or 2nd place and less if you drop out earlier.

[safe valve]

that looks like the correct build.
Not sure how it made your mainnet stop running, i don't experience the same issue

what happend when you started mainnet? You got an error?

[prisma yarrow]

should I use a different username

[prisma yarrow]

yes

[safe valve]

what was the error?

[safe valve]

don't think that's needed... but hey, always worth to try out stuff like that 😄

[zenith mortar]

i use same email for both

shouldnt be an issue

it may have been your app data you deleted @prisma yarrow

so you may be good now

also couldve been stuck in a game

so yeah sometimes logging in a new email works

[prisma yarrow]

i didnt not took a screen shot of the error

[safe valve]

creating new mmo testnet account totally wiped my old testnet accoutn tho, so i would assume some stuff might be related since they were 2 different buidls aswell

[prisma yarrow]

yes deleting app data made my mainnet work again

[rough turret]

Will my NFT be on testnet?

I bought illuvials

[safe valve]

No
You only have them on mainnet.

[rough turret]

Why don’t see them in game?

Arena

[safe valve]

You need to restart the client for them to show up.

[rough turret]

Like reinstall? I’ve restarted

[safe valve]

no just restart is enough.
Can you check if you see them in Teamplanner --> Ownership?

then click on whatever illuvial you bought and set it into first slot

[rough turret]

Nothing there

[safe valve]

when did you buy them?
Maybe it's a slight delay from the chain since they are still migrating assets it might have some delay until that's all done

#💬〕general message

[rough turret]

Today

[safe valve]

i haven't personally done any buys since migration, so i can't give you a rough estimate about how much time it needs to process everything in the backend.
Maybe @dark scaffold has some average time values for this?

[dark scaffold]

not sure tbh, can I get the asset id or your wallet, and also can you send a pic showing what you see to make sure you are in the correct place

[wild kiln]

As a test, I sent nearly 100 Illuvials from one account to another
Every single one of them arrived in my inventory within the first 10 seconds
However, I’m not sure if the situation is different when it comes to buying and selling

[dark scaffold]

@zenith mortar can you bum the guy with discord XP 🙏

• 827681957642764308

[safe valve]

probably different from showing up in wallet than showing up in client.
But idk... just an assumption 😄

[rough turret]

0xbc6d8d664c9cdcff7fddab56141e6eada1425a37

[hazy trench]

How did you get this in there? I don't see it when I search in Epic Games

[safe valve]

you have to redeem one of the codes rich posted above for the testnet to show up.

[hazy trench]

oo ty 🙂

I'm not familiar with Epic Games so I would've never figured that out 😛

I figured the code was for access rather than an actual standalone download

[safe valve]

i was in that situation too 😄
more of a steam guy

[dark scaffold]

can you send me a pic of you clicking on the illuvial you bought and not seeing anything there to pick? there will be a UI on the right site to chooce illuvial
(I will NOT DM first, If I do, its a scam)

[zenith mortar]

Done

[safe valve]

https://giphy.com/gifs/what-guy-white-blinking-RILsqUte1MME7TzQJ9

yea that shouldn't look like that 😄
more like:

have you give it some time to load?
Might need a min the first time it loads, idk...

[rough turret]

Submit a ticket?

[safe valve]

i think peter will show up and give you some professional adivce on how to fix that.
First time i'm seeing an empty page from a player...

[prisma yarrow]

go sleep triple augment

i am sure he fought he had a free win until the 2 last fight

[dark scaffold]

@rough turret checking with devs, give them a minute, we will see, I assume still issue due to migration

[rough turret]

Ok

[scarlet spindle]

Did it actually wipe the old ones? or is it just because it's on anew chain we dont access them anymore

[safe valve]

it override it.
Have no access to the old account anymore. But that's just a problem for those having used the same mail for MMO as for the normal testnet build and also being in the very early invite group for the mmo testnet having created a new account there after some days.

At least i didn't find a way so far for accessing the old testnet account.
But also... it's just testnet... shit happens 😄
only bad thing is i can't test ownership stuff...

[scarlet spindle]

It sure makes it hard to beat the bots tho, in testnet gauntlet, since they all have stats now and I dont lol.

As a side note though, after about 25 games on testnet, I still feel about the same.
The new simplified synergy system is great for 1v1 quick ascendant games, but it's pretty lame for the Gauntlet. It's just too watered down for high end play.

[west musk]

Feel the same

[prisma yarrow]

ok testnet is installed and both testnet and mainnet works now, trying ascendant ranked right now

how long do we have to wait, it wont let me face a bot?

[mellow bolt]

Can you use small words for normal people? Does this mean they’re just testing in for fun or testing it because it’s gonna launch soon?

[west musk]

testing to get community feedback... revise and ship afaik

[safe valve]

usually bigger patches get uploaded to testnet first where they can be tested by community, mostly for finding gamebreaking bugs so those can be eliminated before going live on mainnet.
Changes based on community feedback are always taken into consideration aswell.

[mellow bolt]

Will it be like the original ascendant I can use any unit build any team no restrictions. I only ask because I want to prepare properly so I can kick ass in the ascendant arena. I wanna buy and spend more money on a new team specifically for ascendant

[safe valve]

Epic

I’m definitely buying the XP booster

[mellow bolt]

I don’t understand the TPI boost or bonus the higher level TPI the more damage bonus it does?

[worldly token]

Question regarding ascendand:
Losing a fight deals 25 base damage, plus 1 additional damage for each enemy unit still standing

Unless I have 9 units surviving like 3 times the additional damage never matters. So it will just always be 4 losses and your out, right?

[jolly whale]

The math is mathing!

[worldly token]

Thought about if it would make more sense if ot was 20 + additional units, because it would matter. But that would make early game builds harder to play

[worn tree]

Pretty much yes

when will the patch be live?

[scarlet spindle]

4 wins for you is a win. If you beat each other back and forth you can go 6 or 7 rounds.

[scarlet spindle]

It uses the shop just like gauntlet, but you only need 6 to get to stage 3s instead of 9, so you get there faster.

[worldly token]

how was the pool size of the individual illuvials adjusted? Because we only need 6 now to get stage 3

[pseudo phoenix]

Hello, how can I select multiple illuvials at the same time from my inventory?

[safe valve]

what do you mean exactly?
like in the ownership tab of the teamplaner?

[pseudo phoenix]

I mean selecting several items to send them to another portfolio

[safe valve]

i think it depends on the item.
When you see qty (quantity) you can send multiple items at once by clicking on the white arow. If you don't see that i don't think you can send multiple at once, at least i haven't found it yet.

[twilit storm]

Leviathan is the way.

[ashen mango]

So let's say that my only Ophisto is bad and my best Rota has 100 TPI, does it mean that if I only select Rota in the team planner and let Ophisto be automatically selected during the game I will have a ranger with 100 TPI strength despite my Ophisto being bad?

Do all illuvials have the same weight or does a T5S3 have more impact on the calculation than a T0S1?

[jolly whale]

Your Illuvials are crazy @safe valve .... Thought I had um there!

Yours are pretty nice too, ser 🙂

… how do I send ETH to my wallet . Also I can’t see my wallet balance???

Or is this because migration not done yet ?

I wish I could just add my credit card and buy illuvials

Smh

[lime cloak]

This was in the latest announcement.

There have been some issues with the IMX Migration process, and it's taking them longer than initially anticipated. They are also unable to complete the migration of ETH, ILV, and USDC balances before February 25th.

I think we should be able to add ETH to the wallet but I am personally waiting until everything has been fully migrate.

[west plume]

you can bridge funds accross from other EVMs in the illuvidex just follow the guide that pops up

[mellow bolt]

That’s way too much work. I don’t wanna have to connect accounts. Why can’t it just be normal like the rest of the crypto world and you just send money to a wallet 🤦

[west plume]

Every L2 chain requieres a bridge from Mainnet.It take like 30 seconds to send to your wallet on Zkevm

Creditcard payment i assume will come aswell

Hey Sota,

It works as follows:

• You have 5 atlas.

If you don't pick any, the game will automatically select the highest level one for you, and that one will count towards active ownership.

Your ranger level will always reflect the active ownership illuvials of each type you are using that game.

[ashen mango]

Does it mean that the level of my ranger is dynamic within the game, in other words does it change depending on the illuvials that I choose to put on the board in every game?

[worn tree]

Negative, the ranger level is static, and is calculated at the start of each game.

On game start, the system takes a snapshot of your active ownership illuvials from your entire collection. You might not be using a Kukkaraph in the entire game, but his active ownership is being used for your ranger level.

What if you have a lot of doubles? Does it still take the average or just the highest level of each illuvial?

[worn tree]

It always picks the highest level by default if you don't select it otherwise in the team planner.

If you have 3 atlas, one lvl 20, one lvl 40 and one lvl 60. Unless you pick the lvl 20 or lvl 40, it will always default to the lvl 60.

Can someone clarify this augment for me please? Does it do a % of your opponent's max health as damage or deal a % of your max health as damage?
