q-and-a

[crude lotus]

Yea i would show the SS's but i can't post them in here

with knowledge perk my cast time goes from -20% to -14%^

[whole sluice]

Yes, so knowledge does reduce casting speed and speeds up magical interaction speed

It wasn't doing that previously

It is supposed to also scale spell capacity, but thats not in atm

[burnt badger]

Is there a estimated date for EA, or a longer playtest?

[whole sluice]

Well spell capacity is in, it just doesn't work 😄

[whole sluice]

Last we heard a couple months ago was EA in Q2/April of next year

[burnt badger]

Cheers, how awful is the lower level of the dungeon? What sort of gear would you recommend as a minimum for it?

[whole sluice]

You can technically do it just fine with whites, but most of it is just map/enemy knowledge

Having ranged really helps as well

[burnt badger]

one last question, does the time limit get extended down there?

[whole sluice]

No, it's reduced but the map is a lot smaller

[burnt badger]

Okay

[whole sluice]

Sorry, yeah it has like 8 or 10 minutes to start

If thats what you meant

It basically starts a new 'round' with everyone who went down in your game

[burnt badger]

okay, cheers.

[inner flax]

Does the rarity level of a Spell Casting Catalyst increase the spell casting speed?

[whole sluice]

Personally I like anything with cast speed. The games is heavily movement oriented so the less you need to stand still for some spells or move positions and cast while being slower is a big difference

[whole sluice]

Not currently. Right now a grey is the same as a blue.

[inner flax]

Okay, I could swear up and down all day that the Cleric Staff is much slower than a spell book of the same level

[thorn dagger]

Cleric staff gives you more movement penalties

Book is -10 Staff is -20

[whole sluice]

Hes talking about cast speed, not movement

[inner flax]

yess

[thorn dagger]

Ah I see

[trim cave]

What does resoucrefullness do?

[whole sluice]

The main differences are basically utility and movement penalties

[whole sluice]

Right now, just interaction speed

[inner flax]

wdym by utility

[thorn dagger]

You can attack with the staff, dual wield with orb, etc

[whole sluice]

Different cast animations. Some, like the staff, are REALLY bad for hallways, but you can bonk people without swapping

[trim cave]

@whole sluice does that mean switching weapons? or just opening chests and doors

[thorn dagger]

Oh yeah the staff's cast animation fucked me over a few times

[thorn dagger]

just opening doors and such

[whole sluice]

Opening doors/chests

I believe weapon swap is action speed, not interaction speed

[thorn dagger]

Which is Agility

[whole sluice]

Action speed and move speed and interact speed

Resourceful gives more interact speed % per point than AGI, but AGI is the king stat right now imo

Oh wait, I stand corrected

AGI does not affect move speed anymore

Thank fork

[dapper mortar]

what do you do with your friends soul can we revive?

[stable remnant]

there are altars u can use the soul on to sacrifice some of ur health to revive em

or if ur a cleric u havea spell to revive

[dapper mortar]

thank you

[whole sluice]

Yes, take their soul to a resurrection alter. it wil take some of your HP once you res them. Make sure to equip their soul in your belt slot

[shadow mauve]

how the hell are people moving so fast? I don't understand, even with a wizard hasting me on a rogue I can't go half as fast as some of these guys

[whole sluice]

Armor penalties. Some people don't wear heavy armor and wear things that give them + move speed

And use light weapons

[dreamy radish]

For the perk Sharpshooter, what constitutes a long-range weapon? a longbow or crossbow?

[whole sluice]

That being said, backpeddling reduces your speed A TON. You might as well not even bother if you are trying to get away. Also, putting away your weapon gives you free + move speed

[weak vessel]

You can also unsheathe your weapon with "c" and you move faster

[whole sluice]

All bows basically

[dreamy radish]

thank you

[whole sluice]

Sure thing

[vast monolith]

how does pickpocket work?

[whole sluice]

Not too sure tbh. I tried a few things but didn't have solid data with people trying to murderize me. I feel it's either not working correctly, allows you to have a chance to pilfer something from their belt whenever you hit them, or get random items from anyone who 'escapes' the game

It's a passive so it's hard to try and figure it out tbh

[cunning jay]

what is the use for cleric to have a better staff?

[whole sluice]

Eventually purple items give stats that are meaningful

But mostly it's easier to code items to have all the rarity then to specifically not

[cunning jay]

ah ok, ty

[whole sluice]

Can't buy them. You can find them though. Look on bookshelves and looting Skull Bats for highest chances. (Besides other players of course)

[wheat jay]

Is there anywhere to see what the different stats give to benefit?

[whole sluice]

On the main menu click on Fopdoodles. Also check #📢announcements I believe they are listed there

Thats a little outdated but close enough

[fathom island]

What's the deal with the Golden Door? Is there a specific key to open it somewhere on the map?

[whole sluice]

There is a chance you get a golden key from the Skeleton Captain below that door

[glad pewter]

Question on the Cleric, Spell Memory. Not 100% sure what that does

"Memorize spells so you can cast magic"

[whole sluice]

It lets you cast spells. It's most likely a placeholder for when multiclassing becomes a thing or more of a Paladin build is available

[shadow mauve]

Does direction matter for a parry or do I just time it right and block where the weapon is?

[lavish elk]

Direction really matters.

[whole sluice]

The weapon itself is the hitbox, the exact mesh. There is no cone, so you have to intercept where the other attack is coming from with your weapon. Very tight window

[lone crag]

doubes double dagger on rogue works like double damage weapon or is just for show?

[whole sluice]

Different attack combos

[lavish elk]

If you get in a tough place you can crouch and look up and it should catch most overheads.

[ionic marsh]

does resourcefulness still do nothing

[lavish elk]

Open them chests faster

[whole sluice]

Effects interact speed better than agi point for point, but in general +1 agi is still better imo

[ionic marsh]

does it actually work though or is that just what its supposed to do

last patch it did nothing

[whole sluice]

Yeah, it works with interact speed

[sonic lion]

Hi my game keeps crashing when i boot it up and gives me a error message any suggestion or help you can give me?

[whole sluice]

Sorry, not the tech department 😦

[vast monolith]

are there purple/orange bows? because I have yet to see one but ive seen every other weapon

[whole sluice]

Like last playtest they seem to have a really low drop rate

I've seen a few purples

And legendary crossbow from the skeleton door

[wicked summit]

Does the plus magical damage also apply to clerics smite ability when in use?

[whole sluice]

I believe so because it's a magic effect and not a phys one, but without the ability to test on a dummy, not 100% sure

[humble fjord]

Hey guys what does the Crystal Orb do?

[lavish elk]

Spellcasting focus.

[humble fjord]

What is spellcasting focus lol

[whole sluice]

Lets you cast spells

[sand yew]

How does the blue circle mechanic of the Lich work?

[whole sluice]

Stack

[sand yew]

As close as possible or just within the general aura?
We've failed that mechanic three times now. 'cus that's what pro gamers do.

[whole sluice]

Haha... Need to stack on eachother. The blue aura does a lot of damage and is split among any in the circle when it goes off

[wicked summit]

any reason why my friends games keep crashing when he clicks the stash tab

[rigid latch]

im sure this has been asked before but when is the + spell capacity ability going to be added?

[whole sluice]

Soon (tm)

[eager stratus]

what the ancient scrolls do

[whole sluice]

Vendor food for now

Eventually they might do something

[wicked summit]

tm?

[whole sluice]

Trademark

[wicked summit]

alright

so what does the stat will do specifically?

[whole sluice]

Magic Resist, Magical Power

[sharp cosmos]

https://i.imgur.com/vMWE1Q2.png

[jade tapir]

how does shop refresh work?

[whole sluice]

Also buff/debuff duration

[chrome dew]

How does armor rating effect incoming damage? I've seen very little effect from armor that I wear.

[whole sluice]

'Timer or logging out

[whole sluice]

There is a physical damage reduction number on your character sheet

[terse crag]

will there be more fighting mechanichs, like straving and parrie ? like in mordhau for example ?

[whole sluice]

Most likely not. They don't want complicatred crab people battles like Chiv/Mord. They want a relatively simple Parry/Block(Stability) for combat and focus more on positioning and tactics than just weird camera angle fighting

[lavish elk]

I'd like to see a confined option for sweeping weapons without having to go through the sequence,

[terse crag]

hm, i feel like a little more complexity in fighting would be good for the game, feels like im playing skyrim 😄

[wicked summit]

so if will is magic power, then what is knowledge?

[whole sluice]

Cast speed is the only thing atm. Eventually spell capacity (Sorry, also effects magical interaction speed)

[wicked summit]

ty

[keen ether]

Does the parise offer back protection when it’s not used?

[whole sluice]

Nope

But you can deploy them on the ground

Fun to block someone in a rom while the swarm eats their face and they panic 😄

[keen ether]

Yeah that’s what I experienced but someone argued so had to make sure

[restive juniper]

What does the spellbook do?

[whole sluice]

No worries, always good to double check

[whole sluice]

Lets you cast spells if you are able to

[keen ether]

Yee

[lavish elk]

The pavise became my favourite thing when I saw you could deploy it.

[restive juniper]

Faster? cus i mean i can just use a staff instead

[whole sluice]

Nope. The main difference between the different casting items/weapons is differences in movement speed penalties, casting animation, and utility. I.E. having the staff is bad for casting in hallways because it will fizzle if it struck a wall, but you could also bonk someone if needed without swapping to another weapon

[restive juniper]

i see thanks

[whole sluice]

Sure thing 🙂

[barren seal]

how do you open the golden door?

i had a lockpick

[whole sluice]

Golden Key. Has a chance to drop from the skeleton captain miniboss below it

[pine plinth]

Is the Nimble Hands perk passive or active?

for ranger

[whole sluice]

Passive

[pine plinth]

oh thanks

[candid saffron]

What does Nimble Hands even do for the Ranger?

[whole sluice]

Attack speed with bows

[woeful kiln]

effects actions as well

[whole sluice]

I think it's like 5%, but that was previous playtest with a number, no number this time.

[candid saffron]

Interesting, thank you

[whole sluice]

No it doesn't, doesn't change any stats or anything on character sheet

Only effects attacking with bow speed

[woeful kiln]

really

[whole sluice]

Yup

[woeful kiln]

feels like i open stuff faster

huh

[whole sluice]

Otherwise it would just be a +agi ability

Maybe some extra agi/resourceful items equipped?

[sharp basalt]

I know you probably answered this a lot so I am sorry for this but what do all the basic stats ie str will agility do for your character thank you appreciate you

[whole sluice]

Yeah no worries. You can get some more info clicking on fopdoodles button in the menu tavern. There is a great comic in there to btw. But here

Do be aware these are outdates till

AGI does not affect move speed currently and one of the other stats was working slightly different

[spiral scroll]

does the weapon damage on the wizard staffs affect the magick damage or just the blunt swing damage of the staffs?

[whole sluice]

Ah, it was resourceful only effects interaction speed currently

[whole sluice]

Just the bonking of the noggins with the stick itself

[shadow mauve]

What's the difference between gray and higher level campfires?

[whole sluice]

Speed to put them down

[dark gale]

there is a way for transfer loot from a class to another?

[whole sluice]

Nope. You can use the player shops at lvl 5 to buy things, but no shared stash

[dark gale]

ç_ç i have grab some good loot from other class but nothing for mine so sad ç_ç

[whole sluice]

Thats how I feel 😄

I always find gear for my fighter/cleric

Never the Rogue/Ranger 😄

[dark gale]

i came out alive 3 times in 7 hours and cant even use the loot XD

[spring mantle]

How much health do i loose when getting a friend back at the altar?

[whole sluice]

I was to say like 30ish %, but I think it's a flat number, not a set one. So 20-40. Haven't really checked tbh

[marble nexus]

so i cant figure out how to cast spells as cleric? it just opens the wheel to select my spells

[whole sluice]

Right click once you select

After you have a casting item equipped as well. Book/Staff

[bronze gale]

Does the Rogue 'Creep' skill work? I don't seem to notice the difference

[whole sluice]

Yes, you don't notice because your personal sounds and your teammates are exaggerated

Going to be answering questions in the discord channel for a bit before hopping back on to play. If you're interested in knowing mechanics in the game, head on over. https://discord.gg/4NmbBG23

[hollow steppe]

What is the difference between the tier for the mage weapons? I can't see any different stats from the grey spellbook to the blue spellbook

[whole sluice]

Nothing between tier colors outside of purple atm

[hollow steppe]

oh okay thanks

[pliant briar]

Does the alcohol strength buff last the same amount of time as the debuff?

[whole sluice]

Yes

[pearl tide]

So... mobs don't de-aggro from you anymore if you use Hide?

[supple smelt]

They did from me earlier, but immediately came back at me when i unhid

[pearl tide]

weird. I just had 2 skeleton archers headshot me while I was invisible.

[supple smelt]

Damn aimbot wall hack skellies🤣🤣

[lusty hedge]

What is magical healing on items? Is it just healing over time?

[acoustic zenith]

Does wizard staff do more damage with spells than the crystal ball or is it just the abillity to hit things?

[whole sluice]

It's for healing spells

[whole sluice]

Spell damage and cast speed are the same. The only diferences are utility, movement speed penalty, and casting animations

[acoustic zenith]

ty

[lusty hedge]

Ah, extra healing received basically only from cleric, then?

[silver mist]

anyone know how the rouge poisoned weapon works? i says attack apply a DOT dealing 4 damage over 4 seconds and can stack up to 5 times, does that mean that at 5 stacks the DOT is doing 20 damage over 4 seconds?

[whole sluice]

No, it's +healing done, not received

So unless you are healing that doesn't do anything

[lusty hedge]

Well, that's pretty useless on a plate helm hahahah

[whole sluice]

Eventually multiclassing though 👀

[whole sluice]

Correct minus any resistances

[inner flax]

Spell capacity is not working right?

[whole sluice]

Correct

[inner flax]

Ty

Is smite's magic damage effect affected by Magic Power Bonus?

[placid storm]

any fixes for screen tearing?

[whole sluice]

I want to say yes, but never have enough time to test on the dummy

[bleak crag]

when I shoot magic missiles why does it only shoot one missile sometimes?

[inner flax]

I also want to say yes lol

[inner flax]

you're movin

[twilit moat]

Will weapon mechanics be added such as feints and wider variety of directional weapon swings?

[zenith kite]

is there portals in hell

[whole sluice]

Yes, 4. 1, 1, and then 2

[zenith kite]

they spawn randomly

[acoustic zenith]

you aren't allowed to move and cast it

[zenith kite]

M

?

[dry kestrel]

does cast time increase with staff/book rarity

[little onyx]

All magic weapons have the same cast speed and spell damage until purple quality ATM @dry kestrel

It's just animation preference

[hazy turret]

is there any chance of getting prox chat in this game?

[opaque kelp]

Books also let you cast in cramped conditions. No more bonking the walls with your staff

[glossy wyvern]

How does the ressurection spell work? My friends and me been trying to use it but it doesnt seem to work

[opaque kelp]

It’s tricky. It’s channeled, so you can’t move while you’re casting or it cancels. You also have to hit the target with your spell, but the cursor jogs when you cast.

It’s easier if you’re right up in the corpse when casting

[peak sigil]

Is there a breakdown of what all the stats do collected somewhere, not finding anything definitive with the search function

[little onyx]

Yea that's why i added the animation prefence part haha, definitely can be helpful.

@peak sigil In game bottom left FopDoodles, there's a page with the stats at the bottom but it's not completely accurate ATM due to changes.

[pine plinth]

Does priest ressurection just straight up not work? lol

[zenith kite]

it doesM

[pine plinth]

how?

i right click their body and cast the spell nothing happens

like 4 times already

[little onyx]

Did you hold it down for the entire very long cast time?

[pine plinth]

yea

it just uses up the spell

[zenith kite]

well mine do work so idk, i just use the speel like any other

[little onyx]

Weird I've heard a few people report that it's not working but others have confirmed it is, without video I can't know if it's just a bug or player error.

[harsh fractal]

hi, how work the revive magic with the cleric

[pine plinth]

lmao timing

[harsh fractal]

i need aim first and then cast?

[inner flax]

Aim at body > Right click Cast > DO NOT MOVE OR PERFORM ANY ACTION

[harsh fractal]

ty

[little onyx]

Hold down the right click for the entire cast time

[harsh fractal]

and the soul left on the body rigth?

[little onyx]

And be very close to the body

[whole sluice]

Also, you can't touch their spirit, needs to be untouched in the chest location

[inner flax]

yes, soul on body

[harsh fractal]

ok

thanks

[pine plinth]

do i have to remove the armor?

[whole sluice]

No

Don't touch them

[little onyx]

@whole sluice I think it's bugged in some cases, I've seen people say they've done it correctly and it claim it didn't work many times now 🤷

[whole sluice]

It's just like any spell, just target, cast, and wait for a while

Like 20ish seconds I think

To be fair, most people usually come back saying user issue

Or their stick bonks a wall

Or they move

Or they look around

etc...

[little onyx]

That's why I said without video I cant know 😭🤣

[quick marten]

just kinda find safe place to do it dont move or anything just cast le spell

[torpid goblet]

Is the stealth perk working for Rogue?

[whole sluice]

Yes?

[torpid goblet]

kk

seems like i would hide, then move, and the stealth icon would disappear

[whole sluice]

You need to take both stealth and the passive, then crouch/walk for 10 feet

[lavish elk]

If you don't have the extra let you move perk it'll do that, yeah.

[whole sluice]

If you run it doesn't work

[torpid goblet]

nod, had both stealth and pasive

mabye it was crouch/walk nod

[lavish elk]

Its shift to walk right? Been a while since I've had to.

[whole sluice]

Default, yes

[torpid goblet]

kk, thats what my issue is then

[outer elbow]

is the portal spawn completely random? or are there leads? like they spawn in big rooms or such?

[whole sluice]

They spawn in the white circle area each time, but otherwise random

[proven adder]

Any tips on killing the lich ? I cant understand the mechanics . Its not very clear whats happening during the fight..

[versed oyster]

Is there a known time when the play test will be ending on the 30th?

[hasty pumice]

what exactly gives xp is it surviving,killing mobs or what?

[whole sluice]

XP is earned by doing pretty much anything. Killing players, killing AI, opening chests/corpses/portals, escaping, taking a down portal. The largest chunk of xp is going down to the bottom floor followed by escaping.

[lavish elk]

I've gone out of my way to murder every NPC I find and its gotten me to lvl 15 pretty quick.

[hasty pumice]

kind of hard as solo rogue

[lavish elk]

You can strafe out of the way of most attacks so once you have that down its fairly safe to do.

[glossy wyvern]

Are wraith's invincible?

[whole sluice]

No

Just a good chunk of HP

[warm osprey]

whats the difference in white spell book and blue spell book, no stats are visible and same weight?

[whole sluice]

Nothin as of right now

[warm osprey]

ah thank you!

[whole sluice]

Sure thing

[untold ice]

it could honestly just be player error. I thought it was bugged the first time I used it but then I saw someone mention here how to do it and I just felt stupid lol

[whole sluice]

Nah, learning new things isn't stupid. We were all nubs at one point 🙂

[sharp cosmos]

Cow, you know if Nimble Hands perk works on Rangers?

[whole sluice]

Yup

Increases attack speed with bows

[little onyx]

Alot of things are explained fully so its perfectly understandable, i was just surprised by how many people where reporting it might be busted, but im assuming its probably just player error until i see video otherwise

[leaden bloom]

What exactly does +1 spell capacity do? When I equipped it, my max casts of spells didnt seem to go up, which was my assumption

[sharp cosmos]

Ok so no need to crouch or anything lol

[little onyx]

Spell capacity isnt in the game yet @leaden bloom

[whole sluice]

Spell capacity isn't functioning correctly.

[leaden bloom]

ty

[little onyx]

but that is its purpose once it gets fixed/added

[leaden bloom]

is my assumption correct in what it WILL do?

it will increase max casts of spells?

[little onyx]

I assume so haha

[whole sluice]

When working correctly it would allow for higher amounts of spells to be brought in. I.E. if Fireball can only be spent 5 times, +1 would allow for 6

[leaden bloom]

cool! thanks

[mint heart]

Also do we know if the br gas mechanic is a for now thing or staying for good

[keen ether]

Selling price?

[whole sluice]

BR?

Oh, most likely staying

They've tried afew other things but haven't felt anything that works good enough to replace

[mint heart]

also do campfires restore spell and abilities

[keen ether]

Ye

[mint heart]

dope my buddy said as a ranger campfire didnt restore his little bread heal ability so i didnt know

[stiff topaz]

how do we use thieves' pickpocket

[torpid goblet]

other stuff better than that perk

[burnt jungle]

New merchant just dropped!

[glossy wyvern]

Can you use bandits on other people?

[brazen marlin]

As a barbarian how do I get into locked chests?

[whole sluice]

Lockpicks

[brazen marlin]

How does smash work?

[whole sluice]

Use it on non locked ones

Just hit it with your Axe

[brazen marlin]

Is there any reason to do that when I could just open it?

[whole sluice]

Speed

Thats about it

[nimble nebula]

does magical power help clerics healing?

[whole sluice]

Yes

[nimble nebula]

awesome thank you

[sacred canopy]

what does exit look like?

[fluid lance]

What are arcane spells?

[late night]

what does resourcefulness do?

[nova phoenix]

small blue monolith with runes

[glossy wyvern]

it would appear I said bandit meaning to say bandages LMAO

[fluid lance]

Are all wizard spells arcane spells?

[whole sluice]

No, fireball isn't, for one

Magic Missile is

But I don't know about invis/Haste

[fluid lance]

Sweet

[whole sluice]

I want to say those are

[sacred canopy]

does it appear from the start or only after certain time?

[mint heart]

Is there somewhere i can find a description of what each stat actually does

[nova phoenix]

i guess they are, with -1 sec arcane cast invis\haste are casting with incredible speed

[whole sluice]

Fopdoodles button on main screen

Or in #📢announcements

[nova phoenix]

only after a certain time

[sacred canopy]

sadly game seems unplayable solo

[mint heart]

there def needs to be a solo duo trio mode

but it is just an alpha so cant really complain too much

its current state is super fun

[nova phoenix]

the thing i can't get at the time
do arcane missiles really home? Like i've never seen them doing so, i could only shoot them straightforward, they aren't homing at all whether i shoot at PNC, Player, moving my camera or not

[calm igloo]

How much hp ghost king have?

[whole sluice]

They have slight homing when they are near their target

[nova phoenix]

didn't notice that at all, but ok, thanks

[naive herald]

Any benefit to dual wielding as rogue?

Just for extra stats?

[whole sluice]

Different combos, animation cancel, stat sticks

[naive herald]

ah cheers

[whole sluice]

For instance, the Castillion dagger has a CRAZY high damage bonus on 3rd hit, however, it sucks in hallways

[naive herald]

Can you Left Left Right? or does it have to be right right right for that final hit

[whole sluice]

The latter

[nova phoenix]

Oh, and one important question about casting. All casting items are the same, they don't have any secret stats buffing their casting speed or alike? So just choose whatever fits your playstyle better, right?

[whole sluice]

They each have different movement speed, animations and untility. For instance, some let you bonk people without having to swap, others are better for open areas because hallways it will hit the wall and fizzle

[sacred canopy]

is that me or sound volume keeps resetting between sessions

[nova phoenix]

Yeah, thanks
Atm i have a feeling the wand is the best, sword does +- damage, while too big and less speed
orb - with dagger is quite the same as the wand
the book is just zooming aganst ppl
I just had a feeling, that orb actually had better range for buffs. I didn't manage to buff with the wand my teammate from distance A, while orb did it with ease from the range A*1.5

[primal sphinx]

hello, is there a reason my magic missile doesnt work sometimes and it gets consumed?

[nova phoenix]

you have to stand still

[primal sphinx]

oooooh

thx

[nova phoenix]

or they are cancelled

[primal sphinx]

live saver lol wouldnt have noticed 💀

[radiant ridge]

How to you get the trade hub to show the item and lvl you want to sell ? just [item]

[twilit moat]

Btw people are duplicating items

[vivid tartan]

Do the perks from items apply even if you aren't wielding that item for example the big shield on your back?

[radiant ridge]

yes

[whole sluice]

No

And it doesn't prevent damage either

[ionic onyx]

Does nimble hands work, and if so what exactly does it do?

[whole sluice]

Increases bow attack speed passively

[ionic onyx]

is there a % value

[whole sluice]

It was 5% last time, not sure this time, prally the same tbh

[fading stag]

Ehh misters, how to get golden key ?

[whole sluice]

RNG from skeleton mini boss below the room

[fading stag]

Is that mean the 2nd dungeon ?

or in the first one

red portal? or no

[whole sluice]

First floor you spawn on

Its the variant with the tower in the middle that has the golden door

[fading stag]

ah, the dude who looks like barbarian ?

the skeleton barbarian ?

[whole sluice]

No, he has a shield and viking helmet

Looks like a Skeleton guardsman/captain

[fading stag]

okay thank you

[vivid tartan]

What's the difference between the regular heal staff and the spellbook as a cleric? Do you cast abilities faster?

[late sentinel]

Question regarding qizard

what do the book/crystal ball do

do they server a purpose?

wizard*

[gritty chasm]

,

Vaymira read that

[late sentinel]

so

orb is loner range spells

book is faster spells?

[sacred canopy]

is that just me or hitboxes seem really weird for enemies? I constantly miss headshots with the dagger

[whole sluice]

Dagger has REALLY short range

[whole sluice]

No, lemme head out to explain

[sacred canopy]

any tips on finding exit? im like level 7 and haven't gotten out even once

[marsh locust]

what does resourcefulness do?

[whole sluice]

The differences between the various magical casting items and weapons are this: They differ in movement speed penalties, utility, and casting animations (Not speed). Each have specific uses. For instance, the crystal sword is great if you want to be a battle mage and cast spells while also bonking people on the head. The staff is terrible for halls because it has wide casting animations, but also lets you bonk slightly stronger than sword. And some don't let you bonk but only cast spells.

Interaction speed

[marsh locust]

including weapon swings or just like chests and shit?

[whole sluice]

Just interaction

[glossy wyvern]

Where can we read about the skills and what they do?

[whole sluice]

Action speed is attack speed

[marsh locust]

aight cool

[glossy wyvern]

er attributes I guess

Second Wind for fighter shows that it has 1 charge, implying it can possibly have 2 or be regained. Is there some way to do that?

[lavish elk]

campfire

[whole sluice]

This

[polar yoke]

Can somebody give me a quick rundown on how to use the various shields? Feels like weapons just swing through

[muted pumice]

do single use skills like Second Wind ever cool down

they seem to stay at 0 even between floors

[lavish elk]

look at the weapon when its swinging, and just try to dodge the huge 2handers they sometimes go through.

[polar yoke]

Do you need to block the tip of the weapon itself?

[whole sluice]

The weapon itself is the hitbox, the exact mesh. There is no cone, so you have to intercept where the other attack is coming from with your weapon. Very tight window

[muted pumice]

I find that exaggerating the motion of looking at the attack coming in helps, e.g. if the attack is a downward swing you want to look way up

[polar yoke]

So you can duck under the weapon?

[whole sluice]

Campfires can restore them

[muted pumice]

yeah you can duck really well

[polar yoke]

oh man we can play chivalry/mordhau in this game??

[muted pumice]

yes

[polar yoke]

time to get cheesy

[muted pumice]

it's scuffed chivalry

[polar yoke]

accel and decel actually work??

[muted pumice]

yeah

[whole sluice]

There is no real accel/decel

[muted pumice]

try looking straight down and attacking with the arming sword

[polar yoke]

No way, this changes everything

can you hit on the first frame with 2handers then??

[muted pumice]

it isn't much of a literal accel but the idea of aligning the hitbox to literally start on the enemy is a thing it seems

[compact linden]

why does z and left ctrl together bring up exit menu ?

[marsh locust]

getting fucked by a 1H fighter in a hallway

the best

[sacred canopy]

anyone?

[muted pumice]

2H is a liability tbh, dungeon is too tight for it

[compact linden]

it tellls u in top right when exits open

[polar yoke]

awesome, and I was thinking the melee would be super casual

2h longsword seems pretty tight

[muted pumice]

nah man it's sweaty

oh yeah longsword is goated

[lavish elk]

The portals spawn in random locations, when they do it shows in the kill feed, you can either stumble into one or wait for the centre end game group portals to spawn.

[muted pumice]

thrust into a high horizontal is chef's kiss

i wish fighters spawned with it

[polar yoke]

I would appreciate a few more 'default' kits

[compact linden]

where do i report a bug ?

[polar yoke]

a grey crystal sword for wizards, a 2h for fighters

[muted pumice]

spear is pretty gnarly too

[lavish elk]

At least a more consistent shop.

[muted pumice]

have you tried sword and dagger

[polar yoke]

didn't even know you could dw

[lavish elk]

Lemme buy the weakest version from the shop always.

[muted pumice]

if you hold both mouse buttons you do a combo chain and it's fuckin sick for slipping shields

[dark veldt]

how to dual wield lolz

[polar yoke]

so much to do with only one day of playtime left

[muted pumice]

yeah equip compatible weapons into the same slot, a fighter accepts the dagger in the same slot as the shield

[lavish elk]

I've yet to do it but you try dual axes? all the headshots.

[muted pumice]

my buddy did but he got whacked

[polar yoke]

that's cooked

crossbow pump into dual wield swap

[muted pumice]

light em up

but yeah basically proper blocking is just exaggerated

like if you attack another player or a skeleton with a shield, you can see how easy it is to clip their head past the shield, even if the attack does contact the shield it will still do damage. it's unexpectedly realistic in that way

[whole sluice]

Please take the discussion portion to the discussion channel if possible to help clear this for questions 🙂

[muted pumice]

so to avoid that you want to really look far towards the tip and make your shield into a wall

[muted pumice]

is there any easy way to attain campfires aside from gutting rangers

[whole sluice]

Buy from the woodsman

[muted pumice]

sick thanks

[vivid tartan]

What is magical interaction speed?

[sacred canopy]

huh.. can you sell like goblets?

[whole sluice]

Interacting with magical portals, shrines etc...

[whole sluice]

At the collector. He will buy your 'treasures'

[sacred canopy]

ty, weird you need to sell it specifically to him..

[whole sluice]

People making armor don't want to pay money for junk 😄

[sacred canopy]

well, it kinda wastes time selecting him while there's no real point in restriction

[lavish elk]

No point, yet.

[mint heart]

So do shields still just kind of decide on their own if they gonna work or not lmao

i swear it blocks nothing

[whole sluice]

It's because your pov is not the shields pov. The actual weapon has to connect with the actual shield mesh

Most of the time aim higher than what you think

[mint heart]

hmmm ill give that a try

[muted pumice]

attack another player holding a shield, see how easy it is to swing around it, it should help realize just how far you actually have to look in order to block properly

[whole sluice]

Takes a bit of practice, try on a friend if you can 😄

Both go in with cleric/fighter and take turns trying to block

[bronze gale]

Hey guys, what's the difference between the Spellbook and the Staff?

[whole sluice]

The differences between the various magical casting items and weapons are this: They differ in movement speed penalties, utility, and casting animations (Not speed). Each have specific uses. For instance, the crystal sword is great if you want to be a battle mage and cast spells while also bonking people on the head. The staff is terrible for halls because it has wide casting animations, but also lets you bonk slightly stronger than sword. And some don't let you bonk but only cast spells.

[mint heart]

Whats the difference between the different bows

survival bow damage seems dogdoodoo

[rotund cradle]

whats the difference between the spell book tiers? (gray white blue purple gold)

[whole sluice]

Surv bow is faster and better for aggressive pushes. Add a lot of +flat damage and you can hit for 50-60 with a good build

[whole sluice]

[glossy wyvern]

How do you use lockpicks??

I have some but can't open locked things still

[whole sluice]

Spacebar during the lineup

You also have to equip them

[glossy wyvern]

like I tried to pick the golden door

and couldn't

[rotund cradle]

im referring to the spell book specifically. i found a blue spell book, whats the difference between that and my gray one i have @whole sluice

[glossy wyvern]

is it not pickable?

[whole sluice]

Nothing as of right now

[whole sluice]

That needs the Golden key

[glossy wyvern]

Gothcaaaa

[rotund cradle]

gotcha ty<3

[whole sluice]

Sure thing 🙂 Good hunting

[nocturne coyote]

Whenever I die, my heart/soul is not in my inventory when my teammate loots me, why is this?

[mint heart]

Ive had that happen before, probably a bug

[whole sluice]

Move the chest armor

[mint heart]

Do you think there will be more skills to choose from eventually

[vivid tartan]

Does magical power increase the healing you do to others as a cleric?

[autumn night]

Does anyone have a quick rundown of what the attributes actually do? I am told agility makes you attack faster?

[whole sluice]

Check fopdoodles on the menu button or #📢announcements

[whole sluice]

Yes

[whole sluice]

Yes, plus possible multieclassing way down the line

[dusty relic]

is there any other spells then the default wizard ones

[whole sluice]

Not currently

[autumn night]

apperciate it

[whole sluice]

Sure thing!

[indigo inlet]

How does pickpocketing work? Can you do it in the tavern?

[whole sluice]

I don't believe so and not sure. It's a passive but I have no idea what/how it activates

[twilit ginkgo]

can i cast spells with the crystal sword?

[whole sluice]

Yes

[vale wigeon]

Need a lockpicking tutorial. I’m guessing I need to tap F again when the dial lines up in the red? I’ve tried this dozens of times and cannot get it to work

[late sentinel]

you press space

[tame violet]

@whole sluice new boss soloable or nah? 🙄

[radiant ridge]

yes

[whole sluice]

Nah 😄

[radiant ridge]

cheese him w a door

[tame violet]

Time to get a group again ig

[radiant notch]

Does movement effect times like blocking after an attack or attack speed at all?

[mint heart]

seems like it takes too long to get ur shield up after you swing a weapon, no?

[half mauve]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[sacred canopy]

is there actually anything worthy to spend gold on?

[radiant notch]

It makes blocking not worth it unless your geting shot by arrows.

[whole sluice]

Not really. No gold sinks atm

[whole sluice]

Depends on the weapon. Faster weapons like Horseman and Rapier

[lavish elk]

Buy a campfire every run.

[sacred canopy]

so.. basically no point looting anything but best gear then

[whole sluice]

Spares I guess?

Give to noobs?

Trade/Sell?

[lavish elk]

Lotta consumables you can run in eith.

[whole sluice]

But yeah, no end goals atm

[slim meadow]

so why is it that skeletons can attack through doors and we cant?

[whole sluice]

Play a ranger, buy 100 traps

😄

[whole sluice]

You can, just can't stand next to the door to do so

Can stioll shoot through the slits

[drifting pawn]

what does the pickpocket skill do?

[slim meadow]

👍🏽

[livid ginkgo]

Anyone know what the formula for damage is? Having a hard time determining which is more valuable between, say, strength/physical power/weapon damage. Fairly sure true damage is king, but not sure about the order for the rest.

[whole sluice]

Weapon damage is flat damage addied. Physical power is an increased %. Strength gives some physical power

True damage bypasses all armor

[livid ginkgo]

So probably weapon damage until 100 damage if it's 1 physical power or 1 weapon damage. Strength giving multiple physical power % each point of strength?

[whole sluice]

Kinda, I don't know how diminishing returns just yet

But overall flat damage is king atm

The only possible exceptions are REALLY slow 2 handers, in which physical power is better

[livid ginkgo]

Ohh. I suppose it applies in the formula before the % increases

Thanks again!

[whole sluice]

For sure, come by anytime 🙂

[livid ginkgo]

Just thought of another, in the case of dual-wielding. +strength would affect both weapons while flat damage and true damage would only affect the swinging weapon? Or are all stats from both applying to both?

[whole sluice]

Flat damage would still be much better, befcause dual wield doesn't combine stats

[livid ginkgo]

Ohhh the +strength on one will not affect the damage of the other? Interesting.

[whole sluice]

It will, but when you duel wield you are stil only attacking with one weapon at a time

There is no cross combo

[summer sorrel]

U can buy good gear in the trade market from online people

[mint heart]

Gear makes all the difference ive killed like 10 people the last few rounds as cleric with purple gear

[acoustic zenith]

do different armour types affect damage receive? for example if you have plate would daggers do less damage than if you had the same armour rating in leathe ror cloth?

[whole sluice]

No. Damage resistance by type is not currently in that we know of

[acoustic zenith]

ty

[summer sorrel]

fr its crazy

[livid ginkgo]

Oh, I thought I saw something about dual wielding having combos. So ideally have a +strength stat stick and a +flat damage weapon that you actually swing, when dual wielding?

[terse hazel]

so I did some testing. Pick pocket gives a prompt like doors when looking at a near by enemy player, pressing it will interact with the enemy like a door (breaking stealth) at the end it will take 1 random item from their inventory that is not equipped. If they have nothing to take it will tell you when you press the interact key

[drifting pawn]

Thanks

[whole sluice]

Thanks for that @terse hazel I was trying on my teammate to see if it did something but guess not 😄

[terse hazel]

Now I didnt actually try it on my team as they all are out for the night, did it give you the prompt and say there was nothing to loot or just not show anythign?

[whole sluice]

No prompt

That was why I wasn't sure what it did for along time

[terse hazel]

honestly if it worked on teammates that would be like the 1 possible use for it besides memes

[whole sluice]

Haha yeah

[sacred canopy]

oh god.. can't market just be auction lol

[gaunt sparrow]

How exactly is exp calculated? Anyone know?

[whole sluice]

XP is earned by doing pretty much anything. Killing players, killing AI, opening chests/corpses/portals, escaping, taking a down portal. The largest chunk of xp is going down to the bottom floor followed by escaping.

[mint heart]

how many floors are there

[solemn cliff]

2 atm

[gaunt sparrow]

Right, I was hoping to find out actual values - or at least ratios. like how much XP you get from a barrel you break vs. killing a skeleton

[solemn cliff]

How do you post items in Trade Chat

[tardy crescent]

What is physical/magical power?

And how good is it when looking for items with physical damage

[vague jay]

Do armor ratings from shields just give you more armor when you're not using them

[whole sluice]

Dunno, too hard to figure out by doing one thing and then surviving for everything in the game

[fast quail]

anyone know how to heal as a healer

[whole sluice]

Unless you are holding the item, no

[fast quail]

I press E and it shows skills

but then i dont know what to do

[whole sluice]

Right click with a spell casting item/weapon

[fast quail]

ok so Press E then it opens up circle of skills and u hit right click?

[slim dragon]

I'm assuming the acess closes torrow right?

[whole sluice]

Phys and Mag. power are % modifiers to spells after all base calcs are made. In general, flat damage is generally better than% outside of weird niche builds or REALLY slow/high damage weapons

[whole sluice]

Yes

[fast quail]

ty

[whole sluice]

Monday morning around 6AM EST. So in like 32 hours?

[slim dragon]

FAQ says the 30th

[whole sluice]

Correct, based on EST

[slim dragon]

Well Monday is the 31st

[whole sluice]

Wait you are correct, I'm dumb 😄

Normally it was Monday mornings when it stopped

I guess it does end tomorrow night, but not sure when

[slim dragon]

Petition the devs to not bring it down

[whole sluice]

😄

🙏

[slim dragon]

I played non stop today

So i can do 1 god damn run of full pink and legendary gear

Absolutely slaughtered two rounds in a row, just do get 1 shot by a ranger with a bow

[short rover]

so.... how do you cast a spell after pressing e? asking for a friend

[whole sluice]

Right click with a spell casting equipment

Like staff or book

[short rover]

what does holy purification do?

also thank you! didn't think to press 2 to equpi the staff, lol

[whole sluice]

Hah now orries

Holy purification does AoE undead damage

[brazen marlin]

Is there a map available where I can see all the health shrines?

[short rover]

so it's more beneficial than trying to hit them with your melee?

[whole sluice]

No, the maps changed so much between playtests that we don't have a static map for each variant yet

[brazen marlin]

kk

[shut light]

do solo players have a soul heart still? or only groups?

[whole sluice]

Everyone has a soul 😄

[shut light]

so my friend who is terrified there is more people around the corner might be afraid of nothing?

[whole sluice]

Maybe they all gingers?

[pure raven]

Wraith health?

[fast quail]

is there a way to get more mana for a cleric

[mint heart]

okay the fact that someone can just charge you and fucking swing nonstop is retarded

they have absolutely got to add a stamina system

[vestal turtle]

anyone know what "nimble hands" does for ranger? not noticing a difference when equipping it

[whole sluice]

Campfires restore spells

[whole sluice]

Passive attack speed with bows

[chrome dew]

How can MAgic missile sometime shoot 20K projectiles for a solid 10 seconds but others it shoots only one and stops?

[mint heart]

I mean you just gear up with full plate armor and rush and never stop swinging its the dumbest shit ever

someone please tell me theyre going to add a stamina system lol

[whole sluice]

You moved

It's a static standing spell

[chrome dew]

okay

[mint heart]

Maddcow do you know if there will be a stamina system to stop people from spamming

[fast quail]

do you still take damage if u block with shield

[whole sluice]

Not that I'm aware of. Positioning and tactics are the name. If you just press W and charge most of the time you will die unless they don't know you were there and/or got the drop in which case, they either lacked info or awareness in which case they are usually the ones dying to AI etc... That being said, there is parrying and shield blocking but a lot of people don't know the game yet so it seems like it's just mash W to win because people don't know what they're doing. It's so new

[whole sluice]

Depends on if the shield connects with the weapon or their arm

[mint heart]

how tf do u parry

[whole sluice]

If it hits the shield, no. If it hits the arm, it will be reduced but still damage cause it connected with you and you didn't block the actually weapon hit

[whole sluice]

Right now only a couple weapons actually have parry, it's still a work in progress. But specifically Longsword has what most people would consider a 'proper' perfect parry

[shut light]

so basically watch the edge of their weapon and not them?

[whole sluice]

Correct

[sacred canopy]

what.. why stash is not shared

[raw lake]

Does the type of boot affect the noise radius they create? Like is barefoot quieter than cloth>leather>plate etc

[hasty sentinel]

Is there a way to rotate items in your inventory?

[raw lake]

nopers

[hasty sentinel]

thats a shame

[whole sluice]

Yes. Lightfoots are the quietest. Also walking/crouching make it quieter

[hasty sentinel]

thanks tho

[whole sluice]

noper

[sacred canopy]

uhm.. what do if i stuck in textures?

[late sentinel]

How exactly do you initiate the parry?

swinging right before they hit?

or

[whole sluice]

The weapon itself is the hitbox, the exact mesh. There is no cone, so you have to intercept where the other attack is coming from with your weapon. Very tight window

So right click at the time of impact

[lavish elk]

How many of these answers do you have in a text doc. :p

[late sentinel]

oh so right click actually does something

do you know exactly which weapons can parry?

Longsword you said, anything else x3

[whole sluice]

Yes 😄

Right now Longsword is the only one in the most full function. Bardiche has sorta a one

A couple others, but most aren't implemented yet

[late sentinel]

when can i catch arrows with my teeth

[sacred canopy]

hmm why can't i seemingly purchase anything from merchants?

[shy breach]

Whats the armor scaling math formula?
91 armor --- 18 % reduc
58 armor ---> 14.7 % reduc
41 armor ---> 12.1 % reduc

[whole sluice]

I know there is diminishing returns and also base stats, but not sure of formula

[whole sluice]

You can parry them with the longsword 😄

[tardy crescent]

MaddCow you seem rather knowledgeable, what weapons do you look for on a wizard?

[whole sluice]

I personally like dagger, gives bonk, decent off hand for spells

[tardy crescent]

so a rondel dagger and a spellbook or something like that?

[whole sluice]

Ya

[tardy crescent]

would you use a secondary for it as well?

[whole sluice]

Maybe

But weapon swapping usually stinks

[tardy crescent]

true, besides for like ranger and possibly fighter

[whole sluice]

Ya

Although my ranger just had longbow/surv bow 😄

[mint heart]

how do you escape floor 2

[whole sluice]

Take a blue portal

There are 4 that will spawn

1, 1, and 2

[celest elbow]

what is spear proficiency on the ranger for if u cant use spear as ranger?

[whole sluice]

If you equip it you can equip the spear

And it gives a bonus

[celest elbow]

oh thank you

[hasty sentinel]

What is the use of a campfire kit other than a light source?

[whole sluice]

Interact with it and you heal and restore skills/spells

[dusty moth]

how does the escape portal system work? Because the last run my brother and I did we had full visual of the circle and can confirm the 3 man portal did not spawn inside it

[hasty sentinel]

nice, thanks dude!

[dusty moth]

are they supposed to spawn inside the circle or you just need to be lucky enough to get one to get out

[versed elbow]

what time does the test end tomarrow i cant find any info on it

[whole sluice]

They spawn inside, but as the circle shrinks, they can exist outside as the circle always gets smaller if they aren't used

[solemn cliff]

so only one squad has killed the new boss?

according to leaderboards

[whole sluice]

Probably

People don't like to try figuring out hard things 😄

Wait until they are told what builds/strats to do

[solemn cliff]

they were all rangers so im guessing they cheesed it somehow lol

[whole sluice]

Maybe, dunno much about them tbh

[radiant ridge]

Where is the Ghost King ?

[whole sluice]

Same place as the Lich

It's a variant of the map to get a different boss

[unborn mica]

I'm pretty sure in the Q&A with the dev with Onepeg they said 12 am midnight EST, just what I remember though

[radiant ridge]

Gotcha

[dusty moth]

i think it isnt working as well as it should. Like I said we had full view of the circle and when the chat message that the 3 man appeared we did not see it spawn, so can confirm it didnt spawn in the circle

real bummer too we had loot!

[versed elbow]

ty because my british homie is working tomarrow and i want to play it w him when he gets home

[whole sluice]

It was most likely under you or above

Because 6 will spawn in the second to last circle area

A group of reds and a group of blues

[unborn mica]

I know it was at least late in the dya sunday so you should be good

[whole sluice]

Or you were in the maze and didn't find it

Which happens

[dusty moth]

then they need to up the spawns at that point there would be no way to walk around and change levels

[dusty moth]

that happened too but I figured it was somewhere in the maze which is why i didnt bring up that one

the last one was a big open room and we didnt see it spawn and were so confused

[gaunt sparrow]

lol, fair enough. Yeah it would be tough to remember to log everything.

[whole sluice]

Not hard, but I still want to enjoy my precious playtime that I can 😄

It's a hard thing to juggle between wanting to just enjoy the game, and data gathering/testing 😄

[gaunt sparrow]

exactly

Tough as in, tough to warrant the time vs. killing people XD

[whole sluice]

Yarp

[mint heart]

Anyone know a way around the bug where when i try to deposit shit into stash it says cannot equip item

[toxic sinew]

does +magical healing only apply for the person doing the healing or does it also apply to the person being healed

[whole sluice]

Doing the healing

[toxic sinew]

thank you @whole sluice

[shut light]

yes thank you sir. i forgot to say it earlier

[whole sluice]

My pleasure 🙂 It's what I'm here for

[deep zealot]

What benefits do rogues get from dual wielding? Is it just the stats from both weps are applied to the char, and then it depends which wep you hit with?

Also pretty curious what the stats do, if there's a doc or pic somewhere that'd be nice 🙂

[toxic sinew]

you get a new combo for the secondary dagger + the stats

[wide jungle]

For cleric, what's the difference between Wizard staff and spell book, besides the spell book has lower movement cost?

[deep zealot]

I've noticed, I like it but is it any better?

[urban nymph]

spell cast speed increase

[whole sluice]

The differences between the various magical casting items and weapons are this: They differ in movement speed penalties, utility, and casting animations (Not speed). Each have specific uses. For instance, the crystal sword is great if you want to be a battle mage and cast spells while also bonking people on the head. The staff is terrible for halls because it has wide casting animations, but also lets you bonk slightly stronger than sword. And some don't let you bonk but only cast spells.

[whole sluice]

Basically its a stat stick and ability to change between combos of the two weapons.

[deep zealot]

Thanks 🙂 Amazing game loving it so far

[whole sluice]

Check the fopdoodles button on the menu or the #📢announcements

[mint heart]

uhhhh ever heard of Create Food and Water

lol

[whole sluice]

But rangers don't cast that, wizards do

🤔

[mint heart]

hey multiclassing right

[whole sluice]

Hopefully, yes 😈

[mint heart]

and actually i think its cleric and paladin that get it

i aint played dnd in a few months lol we just finished a 3 year campaign

[whole sluice]

Oh yeah, it is holy

[wide jungle]

Does armor provide only a general bonus, or also a protection to that spot? Like does a helmet protect against damage from headshots extra?

[sturdy cosmos]

what does the golden key do? anyone help

[zinc flare]

What does resourcefulness +WPN mean?

[whole sluice]

General reduction to all areas. That being said, there are 3 damage locations. Head = 150%. Torso/chest = 100%. Limbs = 50% after damage modifiers/reductions.

[wide jungle]

It opens the door in the center tower, top floor

[whole sluice]

Resourceful just gives interaction speed

[whole sluice]

Opens the golden door above where the key boss is

[flat path]

Hey all, was just wondering if there is a difference between the weapons that cast spells- so far I stick with a staff cause I can melee with it as well... but curious why spellbook and crystal ball exist, thanks

[mint heart]

There must be duping bug some people are selling a looooot of the same identical items

[whole sluice]

[magic hawk]

mechanics and strategy

[whole sluice]

Range mostly. Not a nice melee fight. He slows, just have to always be moving

Avoid the puddles on the ground

[urban nymph]

can you transfer any items among classes???

[whole sluice]

Nope. You can transfer in a match or two, but thats unwieldy

[urban nymph]

thought so. thank you good sir.

i plan on playing all day tomorrow i think its last day right

oh no its that far away that makes me so sad

shit they could release it as is right now and id be grinding lmfao

[steady sky]

cause it cant generate food out of thin air

[steady sky]

gotta keep player base on edge

1 month of wait time is a bit of a torture

[mint heart]

well we got like 12 til it drops apparently lol

[steady sky]

12 month 3 days a month 36 days of gameplay a year

[mint heart]

do they do this once a month then?

[steady sky]

damn that aint much

[floral carbon]

Does Physical Healing work rn? Or not yet?

(the stat)

[whole sluice]

It works

[magic hawk]

Well wasnt expecting those abilities. did beat it with 2 casualties though

[floral carbon]

Okay, my understanding is just that it is a buff to healing items?

[whole sluice]

Yeah

[junior seal]

How do cleric's spell count refresh work?

[whole sluice]

So if a bandage heals for 10, and you have +2 phys healing, it now heals for 12

[floral carbon]

Okay, perfect. Thanks for the info Madd

[whole sluice]

Spells technically have 'spell points' and a campfire resotres a certain amount. Some spells cost more spell points to recover 1 whole spell

[floral carbon]

Oh man the trade chat is insane. They need to put a cap on the players here lol.

Can't even see what stats are on the items because they moving so fast

[whole sluice]

Yeah, but considering it was added since last time it's a good early feature at least

[floral carbon]

Agreed!

[trim delta]

How does blocking work? I moved my character to have their shield facing up but still got struck somehow.

When i was fighting a skeleton

[dark minnow]

Trade chat by classes would be so much better

[sacred canopy]

is that just me or rogue takes like 3 times more damage than ranger?

[whole sluice]

Depends on their gear tbh

Base stats rogues have less HP

[sacred canopy]

starting

i think its 84 vs 90?

[quick marten]

7.3% physresist 11.6% MagResist32dmg 130 health barbarian
2.2% physresist 8.9% MagResist 18dmg 100 health fighter
3% physresist 16.4% MagResist 17dmg 96 health cleric
8.1% physresist 2.5% MAgResist 16dmg 90 health ranger
8.1% physresist -10% MagResist 13dmg 84 health rogue
6.9% physresist 17.3% MagResist 17dmg 75 health wiz
Side note: fists deal 13dmg apply on hit effects and also deal 20dmg for headshots compared to rondell dagger 18dmg on headhsots

stats

[sacred canopy]

i mean as ranger i lose like 30% from 1 skeleton hit, as rogue i lose more than 50

[full storm]

is extra spell slot bugged ?

[acoustic zenith]

what counts as harmful effects for cleric perk?

[quick marten]

yes currently doesnt work to my knowledge

[magic hawk]

do you know if you have to jump to dodge the ghost king slams?

[fallen citrus]

what does pickpocket do?

[sturdy cosmos]

how can i go through spike floor traps

w/o taking damage

[pale fossil]

jump over them, i believe

[quick marten]

yes

[wide jungle]

that doesn't seem to be a reliable method with how large they are

[pale fossil]

get naked so you run faster therefore have more momentum in your jump
(this is not a serious solution, do not streak in dangerous dungeons)

[whole sluice]

Jump crouch after setting them off with thrown torch or tippy toe

[pearl tide]

Is there ANY way to drop mob aggro? Because invis doesn't work, smoke bomb doesn't work, and doors don't even work anymore.

[wide jungle]

they seem to go off twice by the time I get across with a jump tho

will try it though, sounds interesting

[obtuse sand]

Hi guys, the spears proficienscy with ranger, it work with what ? A crossbow ?

[pearl tide]

a spear.

[obtuse sand]

but i never saw a spear

thx mate

[lusty hedge]

Does spell capacity affect second wind?

[whole sluice]

Mobs don't break doors unless it's the elite enemies. In which case they usually keep on you

[whole sluice]

Spell Capacity doesn't work currently, and if it did, it wouldn't affect that because that is a skill, not a spell

[pearl tide]

That is not true.

Base skeleton sword mobs FREQUENTLY break doors down now.

[whole sluice]

Ok, you're right they do break doors if you stand in them and try to close them while they are hitting you 😄

[pearl tide]

I'll record it next time lol. They will break doors chasing you. Base enemies.

It has happened to me at least 5 times.

[magic hawk]

MaddCowQQ would you know where the skull key goes

[autumn night]

Do you recieve stats from weapons in off hand but not equipped?

[whole sluice]

No

[whole sluice]

Skull door B3

[shrewd trout]

Does anyone know how resurrection works?

[tribal iron]

@shrewd trout - you charge it up to full bar, aim it at the dead mate, and click and wait for it to operate. It has messed up several times for me, where it starts and instantly stops without me doing anyything. So try and make it as stable as possible of a process/revive.

[fallen citrus]

is pickpocket just a useless skill?

[burnt badger]

how does the cleric heal work?

[unreal wave]

Press "E" select Lesser Heal (heals you or your target) or select Holy Light (heals a teammate). Then right click to charge. Release to cast. You have to be aiming at your target if it's not you

You need to have the staff out or a spell book

[tiny terrace]

Does anyone know what physical healing does?

[floral carbon]

So if a bandage heals for 10, and you have +2 phys healing, it now heals for 12

[tiny terrace]

So its only bandages?

[cursive flint]

Is there any difference in performance between a white spellbook versus like a blue?

[severe prairie]

Does poison dagger rogue perk stack with other togues hitting same target?

[whole sluice]

Also effects healing potions

[whole sluice]

Nope

[tiny terrace]

ty

[whole sluice]

Not too sure, but I would lean towards yes

[quick sluice]

can we parry ?

[whole sluice]

Longsword is the only real weapon with a good parry ability. Bardiche has more of a blockish/parry than a real parry. Eventualy 2 handers are likely to be the Parry items

[faint nebula]

Theres currently 3 layers of the dungeon?

[whole sluice]

Technically the floor you start on is B2, the floor down is B3. B1 isn't in yet

[quick sluice]

man me and my friend got bullied so hard

[obtuse sand]

what's the best stuff for ranger ?

[tired thistle]

is 'anything' a proper answer?

[tired thistle]

Longbow op tho ^^

Spears are okay too

Gear is pretty playstyle dependent tho

[whole sluice]

Depends. Personally I love the Longbow, but flat damage scaling with fast weapons is strongest. Surv + flat bonus damage and you'll be hitting for 60+ on a chest shot with super fast

That being said, Longbow sniping heads is yummy

[hidden marsh]

does Armour Type matter? for instance is Plate Armour with a lower armour rating better than Cloth with a higher armour rating?

[whole sluice]

Nah

[fiery atlas]

^^

[whole sluice]

Higher armor and movement speed is the differences

[fiery atlas]

to the team that we fought forever in the zone ggs guys

so many legendaries lost crying

[faint nebula]

from the bows i prefer Survival bow, its just so fast and u can roll some good stats on it as well

[whole sluice]

I do when I play with an aggressive group

[cursive flint]

What does a Wizards' crystal ball do?

[ionic onyx]

Whats the new bosses name?

In 3rd floor

[pearl hinge]

anyone knows what spell capacity does?

[whole sluice]

Nothing right now, but eventually lets you bring more spells

[pearl hinge]

oh cool thanks!

[warm palm]

does better staffs increase your spell dmg?

[whole sluice]

Nope

[dawn plover]

Does Spell Capacity affect Second Wind?

[whole sluice]

Spell capacity doesn't effect anything right now, and if it did, it wouldn't interact with second wind because that is a skill, not a spell

[twilit sparrow]

will the games combat be flushed out more, with things like block/parry? more like a chivarly type combat?

[whole sluice]

You can use campfires to restore second winds though

Not likely. They don't want this to be a crab simulator like chiv/mord

They will have chambers, parries and blocks but thats about it

No accell/drag

[twilit sparrow]

as long as there is parries/blocks/chambers that will be perfect, right now it feels like my only form is defense is movement keys

[patent plover]

Is the survival bow much faster then the recurved bow with nimble hands perk ?

[little lily]

The survival bow is the fastest firing bow.

[faint nebula]

yeah

[patent plover]

Damn I kind of ignored it considering it’s dmg , thought it was just the bow for fighters to use lol

[quartz kelp]

• magic damage, does this apply +dmg to spells or just my weapon?

[whole sluice]

Surv bow with flat dmg. is super deadly. Still prefer longbow headshots, but thats me 😄

[twilit yarrow]

Yo cow you kill the ghost yet lol ?

[whole sluice]

Nah, not on our list for things to test

Mostly working on database and wiki stuff

[twilit yarrow]

Nerd

[whole sluice]

😄

[sudden ocean]

Damn my stab drags are gonna get gutted

Also any plans for giving rogues a light crossbow or increasing the stack size on throwing knives?

[twilit yarrow]

I have seen a lot of people exploiting the slowdown from when you get hit with a bow and the survival bow. That mechanic probably needs to get looked at again I don't feel like getting hit by a bow should slow people down at all.

[whole sluice]

But then ranger could never catch anyone? Tuned maybe, but they still need a way to prevent runners

[twilit yarrow]

Usually when they die from getting shot in the back they stop running lol

[whole sluice]

So your solution to dead people is no slow?

[twilit yarrow]

I don't know I just feel its not used for stopping people from running people basically get permanelty slowed while trying to close the gap. Its not a small slow either

Its like having the wizards slow attached to each arrow its kinda silly as it is right now

[celest osprey]

are player spawns rng ?

[astral wagon]

what does knowledge and will do in game?

[hardy hinge]

are we gonna get gunslingers, like a old fashion musket u w u

Reload animation of a crossbow

[astral wagon]

that would be broken as shit

just a fuking
firing line
3 people
just shooting

they got 2 muskets

[whole sluice]

wILL IS MAGIC RESSIST & POWER

[astral wagon]

each

[whole sluice]

Caps

Knowlege doesn't do anything yet

[hardy hinge]

but what if they miss

but you're right i feel like its out of place in this game

Love it how it is

[drifting pawn]

do they plan on making you bring arrows? infinite arrows, especially for fighter, seems a bit too op

[tepid turret]

is there a difference in normal and backpedaling speed?

[whole sluice]

Yes

You can see how much when you open the detailed character sheets

It's roughly 30-40% lower

[tepid turret]

i only see move speed in the character sheet

[whole sluice]

Yeah, so walk backwards in the game

It'll change

[tepid turret]

ah

[glossy peak]

anyone know difference between something like a grey quality spellbook and a blue quality spellbook?

or grey quality crystal ball vs blue quality crystal ball

[whole sluice]

Nothing right now

[whole sluice]

The differences between the various magical casting items and weapons are this: They differ in movement speed penalties, utility, and casting animations (Not speed). Each have specific uses. For instance, the crystal sword is great if you want to be a battle mage and cast spells while also bonking people on the head. The staff is terrible for halls because it has wide casting animations, but also lets you bonk slightly stronger than sword. And some don't let you bonk but only cast spells.

[tepid turret]

what is the difference between differing raritys of the same item tho

[whole sluice]

None right now

[tepid turret]

sick

time to build a bookshelf then

[whole sluice]

😄

[weak mauve]

Hi, can someone explain what each stats does precisely ? I know i can see my stats on the stash menu, and I guess strengh increase my melee damage but how does it work exactly ?

[weak mauve]

Damn it was before my eyes this whole time ... Thank you very much 🙂

[whole sluice]

That being said, thats outdated. Resroucefulness effects interact speed and agi does NOT effect move speed

[glossy peak]

ty for replies

[whole sluice]

https://tenor.com/view/michelle-tanner-you-got-it-michelle-tannera-michelle-tannerb-gif-4570417

[weak mauve]

Ok so if my strengh is at 13 and my mace does 27 damage, assuming the target has no armor, am I suppose to deal 27+13 + whatever body multiplier when I hit ?

[whole sluice]

No, if you open up your detailed character sheet you can see the total done for you on your character sheet

That will be your base damage

[pale snow]

what PICK POCKET do? if I killed enemy I get his items anyway, Can I steal items in lobby?

[whole sluice]

You can also hit the dummy in the tavern to get a realistic hit on a 0 armor opponent

[weak mauve]

ho yeah -4% damn

[whole sluice]

You can 'interact' with an enemy if you are next to them to steal one item from their backpack (Not equipped)

[woeful kiln]

From what I have seen imperion 15 is what you would consider a neutral Stat anything higher is an increase and lower is a decrease in damage

Everything is based of of percentages

[spark crystal]

Question regrading Fight class's "Dual Wield" perk. Is Sword+Shield a valid combo triggering the perk? Does it apply of "both hands" weapon?

[woeful kiln]

Am I right in that madd?

[weak mauve]

ok is it possible to this this stat window while in a game ? Would like to know how much bonus damage it give if i bring my strengh from 13 to 32

[whole sluice]

Yeah, it will change while you're in the stash

[whole sluice]

Whatcha mean?

[woeful kiln]

This

[weak mauve]

yes but I can't buff my self and drink Ale while in stash do I ? :/

[whole sluice]

Kinda. I need to do more testing but that seems about right

[whole sluice]

Nope

[austere vale]

There isnt controller support i assume?
