q-and-a

[stark dove]

How much would a golden key be sold?

[bold scaffold]

Like one name for all characters?

[ripe plume]

I have said the same thing in the past and I have suggested something like Discord or Battle.net naming
For example: Nessi#0001 etc.

[bold scaffold]

Mehh I think its kinda cool to name each character depending for they role etc

imagine you will have all characters with nessi 1-5

[wet bear]

That could work especially since changing your steam name isn't difficult or complicated so you can live out plenty of iterations.

@ripe plume Yeah those naming conventions are perfect as well. Anything that doesn't have people needing to make AzzBlaster98635474627474627 by the second hour works haha

[green owl]

Why Cant i keep things from the alpha?

[bold scaffold]

this is a new version of game?

[bold scaffold]

and every alpha gameplay was a wipe

😉

[green owl]

wow

[opal zodiac]

anyone know of any eta for the shadow gaming fix?

[ripe plume]

Yeah of course, but you can have a way bigger chance at getting the name nessi
Unlike now, I tried grabbing my name at exactly 5 minutes after the playtest came out and ended up not being able to.
This won't affect you as much as It affects Streamers and Wardens

[bold scaffold]

Streamer problems....Have you seen how Asmong is fighting for his names?:D

[ripe plume]

Yessir. I remember a guy wanted to sell Asmon to him for 1 grand or something stupid like that.

[visual flicker]

First time playing so forgive the dumb questions but how do I break doors with the barbarian?

[bold scaffold]

hit them few times:D

[primal hearth]

Newbie here, am wondering something. got some basic gloves that list knowledge 1 on their stats, is that supposed to increase my knowledge by 1?
Because I see no change on my characters stats in the stash screen.

[visual flicker]

Ty I saw streamers hitting it once so I must need to level or something. I've died like 15 times and can never escape lol

[bold scaffold]

sometimes the hitbox doesnt count as hiting the door or something

[honest cargo]

hey is there any onscreen indicator if my voip is on or not?

[bold scaffold]

bottom left?

[visual flicker]

Bottom left

[polar island]

Is the loot turned down this test? seems like trash.

[quiet glade]

guys what primary stats do you recmmend for fighter gear? Strength vs agility?

[bold scaffold]

i dont know for me the loot is much better ,but the monsters are much harder+ the items depends on monster class(atleast seems so)

[bold scaffold]

str for sure

[bold scaffold]

agi for roge and ranger

[slender breach]

what is default push to talk

keybind

[dense cypress]

confused about this as well

[bold scaffold]

b

[slender breach]

cheers

[shy flame]

@ripe plume hey btw if anyone gets an issue of crashing mid game multiple times, turns out overclocking creates an issue too, so just a heads up on just making a default preset for their overclocking when playing this game

[umbral solar]

anybody know if negative phs damage reduction means more damage received?

[fierce ingot]

Guys did they intentionally remove normal walkign from the game? I am only able to strafe. So I can't press both W and D at the same time to walk for instance.

[errant perch]

yah they were testing out only being able to move like a crab 👍

[fierce ingot]

bro for real? tf

this sht is ret4rded

[ripe plume]

Thank you for the report.

[elder swallow]

Hey guys, I was wondering if it's possible to block an attack by actually blocking the movement the enemy hand makes instead of the strike itself? I just had a game where there were no significant walls that could block my attack and a dude with a small shield blocked all my attacks, but not the strike. It was as if I was hitting a wall instead of a shield

[fierce ingot]

I dont even want to play anymore after playing 1 match with the ability to walk like a crab instead of normally this is bllsht

[fossil river]

why is my voice chat no work

[primal hearth]

@ripe plume does the stash screen not reflect changes in stats from equipment?
I have some basic gloves on my cleric that list: Will 1, Knowledge 1.
But I see no change on my stat page.
would like to know if the stat changes are reflected in game, or i'm misunderstanding the equipment.

[ripe plume]

It does change. It is a Known bug.
It's just a visual glitch, the stats work in-game. #known-bugs

[gilded harness]

This solo goblin map needs to get its portal spawns fixed. Too many levels and portals simply do not spawn on all levels

[fierce ingot]

bro they ruined the game with walking like this fck this game

it was the most fun game there was now its dead for me gg devs

[oblique crescent]

They didnt change walking

[errant perch]

im joking your game is glitched

[fierce ingot]

bruh

[dry harness]

I was gonna say, W and D both work for walking forward and backwards, you might have accidentally unbound then

[runic thicket]

Anyone know how to fix the auto-attacking bug?

[errant perch]

W and S

[dry harness]

I feel shame for getting that wrong 😂

[unkempt beacon]

Anyone's Voip not working properly? can hear others but my push to talk doesn't seem to work

[fierce ingot]

ima restart hopefully it fixes it otherwise I might be fcked

[dry harness]

Yeah give it a restart and then if that doesn't work, try rebinding both keys and seeing if that works

[errant perch]

no way you fr played 2 games thinkin you could only move sideways

[fierce ingot]

I did. I still cant walk normally man this is torture

Restart and unbinding keys iddnt work

[dry harness]

Damn, have you tried verifying game files? Something may have corrupted and caused a weird bug

[bold scaffold]

Why cant you stop crying about little things and enjoy the BIG picture?

[fierce ingot]

Will try

no it literally is torture bro

if this were the only game I'd play, sure no worries.

but too much muscle memory being lost

[bold scaffold]

You have to remeber that this game is still in progress ( so they are fixing and checking everything)

[distant cape]

What does Punish Team Killer do

Can someone please assist

[fierce ingot]

I know bro, last playtest was fine beside the constant crashing lo

[bold scaffold]

i think its like a report or something

[heavy musk]

Idk what class you're playing but with those strafes the rangers better watch out

[distant cape]

There's thumbs down though, then there's a punish button with a guillotine

[atomic shadow]

Does anybody know a way to not crash as soon as you load into a game?

[bold scaffold]

get a better pc:D

The game is working fine for me i dont know:D

[dire tundra]

Looking for Cleric must be good at game running with a barb and ranger pm for invite

[atomic shadow]

I have a 3080 and amd 3600 😄

[bold scaffold]

i have 3060 and everything working fine

[atomic shadow]

Then I guess skill issue for me

[fierce ingot]

LOL I just got instantly killed by a goblin archer XDD from 50% to 0% idk how but ok

[bold scaffold]

xD

[distant cape]

cringe

[dire tundra]

Why?

[bright dawn]

im running a 3080 and my gpu is being used 100% the whole time

holu crap

[fierce ingot]

secretly the game is bitcoin miner. I swear I've had this feeling since last playtest lol

[real folio]

hey guys where can i read about class balance changes made since the last playtest?

[harsh jewel]

can you remove gold from the purse?

[dire tundra]

Which channel?

[cinder reef]

I want them to add a class called bard

[dire tundra]

That would be cool!

[cinder reef]

It fits dont it

[atomic shadow]

Is the amd 5 3600 that bad of a bottle neck for the 3080?

[bright dawn]

this game is just incredible bad lol

[bold scaffold]

https://pc-builds.com/bottleneck-calculator/

[bold scaffold]

everything more then 5% is bad

[slender cloud]

anyone know what silver coins are used for?

[dire tundra]

You can uptrade to gold

[bold scaffold]

trade them at the collector i think

[burnt badger]

does running this game make your guys' computer heat up and shake violenty

[dire tundra]

not worth grabving in my opinion

[bold scaffold]

i dont know why but my pc starts to fly yea:D

[bold scaffold]

some people think this is a miner 😄

[atomic shadow]

Well time to upgrade

[bold scaffold]

the parts are normals just isnt working togehter:)

[burnt badger]

bet it is i thought there was a earthquake my desk shaking

[neon vale]

bro your pc should not be shaking 💀

[desert blade]

I still get a little screen tearing

But the game is pretty reliable

And a lag spike here and there

[wide nimbus]

how do i duel wield as fighter or rogue

[desert blade]

What weapons you using

[wide nimbus]

onehanded

[fierce ingot]

I found the issue why I couldn't walk, only strafe. It was because of a thirdparty program called 'outplayed'

[rain saddle]

Anyone else experiencing a lot of lag and rubberbanding or is it me?

[thorn dagger]

How many exits are there in the Solo Dungeon? I swear it's 2 but my friend keeps saying he's seen 3 exits spawn

[wide nimbus]

how do i duel wield?????

[desert blade]

You can’t dual wield two arming swords

[wide nimbus]

i cant equip the other weapon in my same hand slot

[coarse cove]

Just tried goblin dungeon, wasnt at all that hard, the goblins sucks lol

[bold scaffold]

Got outplayed?:D

[desert blade]

What two one handed weapons are you trying to use

[normal vigil]

Is there a way to identify unidentified gear?

[bold scaffold]

what class?

[coarse cove]

Rouge with base-kit. Didn't get hit once, i wouldn't play wizard here tho lol

[runic warren]

Wizard is an absolute nightmare; at least with his basekit

[worn stratus]

How do you light your weapon on fire as a fighter?

[desert blade]

My wizard started to get pretty nutty once I got a quarter staff

[runic warren]

Ya don't; but a friendly Wizard can help with that

[spark breach]

It's a fire/ignite spell from wizards casting on allies

[amber quartz]

New to the game, is it only pvp?

[errant perch]

PvPvE but there is no gamemode specifically for pve

[stark dove]

Wtf our lobby won't start, we were still in the lobby. i closed the game and restarted it; lost my gear. Nice one

[amber quartz]

0k thanks, so I could get ganked at any moment and then do you lose stuff? I looked like you only leave with found items if you find a portal out?

[spark breach]

If not enough people join it can take up to 5 minutes to start

[foggy flicker]

Is it intentional that bodies catch chain lightning and other spells?

[stark dove]

No we were still sat around the table. in match making

It wouldnt start so he canceled, i restarted the game and came back no gear -.-

[spark breach]

Should have waited or got a mod to ask

Especially if said loot was that valuable

[fossil river]

do scroll do any thing

[spark breach]

No they are treasure items sold for gold at the collector

[fossil river]

k

[stark dove]

its not a question of 'you should've waited', theres an option to cancel the matchmaking said to cancel the matchmaking to not go in a match

whatever anyway it wont change a thing lol.

[spark breach]

I would suggest if you have issues in the future to ask the support options available first

[somber flax]

Can you no longer shift click to move things into inventory? have to drag gold piles one by one into staash

[safe osprey]

why is it I buy a stack of 3 torches for 3 gold but get 1 throwing axe per purchase

[golden cedar]

Whats the point of war cry? does it just give you a bigger empty bar?

[fossil river]

Yes you can but if you shift click it out they back in it wont work

[burnt badger]

give very little health in my experience, i guess its good for your team?

[somber flax]

Ah I see thanks

[steep thistle]

so what determines getting exp on your character?

[burnt badger]

It gave me 10 hp when it should have given me 30 so idk

[bold scaffold]

mob kills and player

[mellow axle]

Is there a way to stack health potions? I have two individual potions that wont stack

[steep thistle]

so it doesnt matter if you extract

[amber quartz]

do you loose everything if a player kills you also?

[bold scaffold]

potions have rarity too

[spark breach]

Are they different raritys?

[spark breach]

Yes

[spark breach]

There are two gray rarities that look similar so double check they arent different

[bold scaffold]

i think the extraction gives mby bonux xp+ you get to keep loot

[amber quartz]

so if im trash and never make it out alive through a portal, what exactly helps me get better?

[severe lodge]

are goblins not undead?

[amber quartz]

do you still get XP for the skill tree or anything?

[spark breach]

You should if you escape

[fossil river]

good teammates

[sullen oriole]

everytime i interact like picking things up i would swing right after idk why

[bitter bolt]

do we have to create new profiles for this new playtest ?

[sullen oriole]

yes

[silver dust]

what is the karma system? will i be punished for killing people for loot?

[bitter bolt]

nooo i stockepiled my loot for nothingg

[bold scaffold]

I am the only one who has problems picking up loot from ground?(Its like I have to aim at 1pixel to pick it up..)

[spark breach]

Your name will be red and alert allies to the fact you kill teammates, redder depending on the worse karma you get

[bold scaffold]

every class has its own gameplay

[spark breach]

So people might just kill you when you get in a dungeon if your username is super red or wait and gank you

[silver dust]

but don't they get punished for killing people with red names?

[bold scaffold]

the name glows red?

[bold scaffold]

honored mby?:D

[spark breach]

Glows?

Never mentioned that I don't think, it's just red

[frigid bay]

Where is the dark and darker map

[spark breach]

You get punished in the fact no one will want to play with you

That's it

I respect whatever way you end up playing as

[bold scaffold]

I remeber that in mu there was PK red name

and there was Heroes with blue names

mby here is similar?:D

[atomic barn]

yeo how are you guys playing the game?

[bold scaffold]

only in pre lobby?

[frank idol]

Is shadow pc fixed yet?

[bold scaffold]

by pressing buttons 😄

[atomic barn]

its not open on my steam

[amber quartz]

Im trying goblin dungeon as it says its solo, to just get a feel for the game. Is there a cap on the number of people in dungeons?

[bold scaffold]

there is another version

[atomic barn]

niceee

thank you

its on steam still?

[bold scaffold]

cant you search and find out?

[atomic barn]

im here on the discord smart ass

[bold scaffold]

should i send you the download link?

[spark breach]

16

I think it's the same for solo dungeons

[bold scaffold]

yes

[atomic barn]

at this point you might as well

finish the job

[amber quartz]

@atomic barn I had to uninstall dark and darker and re-download the new demo

[spark breach]

Yup

[bold scaffold]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2016590/Dark_and_Darker/

[hot crown]

its like 7 or 9 for goblin cave at least its waht it says during the tavern

the max amount of players

[carmine mural]

Are there maps yet released? How long will demo last?

[atomic barn]

ty

[hot crown]

https://darkanddarker.map.spellsandguns.com/map/Inferno-01-N

there are maps

with everything marked

[carmine mural]

thank you!

[spark breach]

There are 4

[late cliff]

how long will this playtest last

[hot crown]

7 days most likely

[spark breach]

Till the 13th

[hot crown]

unless the servers will crash then probably longer

[spark breach]

Will most likely get an extension like the last couple play tests

[late cliff]

bruh i need this game to just stay early access or somthing i just wanna keep playing

[spark breach]

Same XD

[carmine mural]

are there maps for the goblin area?

[spark breach]

Was so bored playing every Zelda game by release date

[fierce ingot]

wtf solo mode is insanely hard

[bitter bolt]

anyone having trouble finding a match ?

[hot crown]

jsut wait a little it's probably them setting up some kind of throttling to prevent servers from dying

[spark breach]

XD, just get used to kiting properly and slowly easing into rooms

It takes time

[fierce ingot]

bro some rooms are filled with too many goblins

and then also they have fcking ridiculous 50% poison tf

[hot crown]

idk the solo is stupid you spawn in like 5 mobs

[topaz marlin]

does "magical power" attribute work for heals?

[bold scaffold]

yea it is what it is:D

[spark breach]

Hitting one does not agro them all, all classes have a throwable item you can use to get 1 at a time to you without fighting them all!

[fierce ingot]

true I forgot aonbut the throwables haha

[spark breach]

Hopefully that helps!

It's a punishing game but taking it slow and using all your resources helps

[bold scaffold]

Gonna go for a food and go back to grinding

[bold scaffold]

yea dont need to rush in,slowly 1by1 and you will get there:)

[spark breach]

Hopefully it's good o/

100%

Remember it's solo so no one is going to most likely rush you immediately

[fierce ingot]

bro its impossible to play solo's starting with 0 gold

[spark breach]

They want to size you up and prep

[fierce ingot]

you need gold to start playing solo's im convinced

[hot crown]

XD

[bold scaffold]

i got few times chased by enemy and got pushed in room with full goblins

[bold scaffold]

or just play safe and use healing spells

[spark breach]

From what my twin did it went fine solo, just have to get used to hit boxes, kite and use throwable items

Only issue I can see is solo Mage being slow to kill all the enemies

[bold scaffold]

I think the mage is one of the biggest DPS?

[spark breach]

Yes but it's also fragile to rush's of you mess up once

[bold scaffold]

pull them in and fireball

[spark breach]

All the classes take skill and can solo that dungeon with the right tactics

[bold scaffold]

KAMEHAMEHA

[spark breach]

XD classis DND approach

I main Ranger and Barb so it's different for me

[bold scaffold]

same

[spark breach]

I've made 4 runs since the release of this test and got out 3 out of the 4 times. Sitting at 175 gold o/

[bold scaffold]

i got 2out of 4 ...the third time my internet company had to restart my internet and I lost everything due to connection problems....(IM RLY MAD AT THAT COMPANY...THEY GONNA SOON LOSE A CLIENT :D)i got around 100 gold

[atomic osprey]

I cant use discord while playing , every time someone messages me, the game stutters and both discord and the games aduio crackles, and i cannot hear anyone in discord calls either, until i turn the game off, then its fine, anyone know anything?

[spark breach]

Rips, still nice haul

[spark breach]

Hmm is this while using the new proximity chat?

[atomic osprey]

no

while in lobby, while in game, always

i just downloaded it

[spark breach]

Hmmm then unfortunately I got no idea from my experience it worked fine with disc calls

Your discord up to date?

That could always be an issue in games

[atomic osprey]

i think so!

[spark breach]

Hmmm try checking your graphics then, we had some fire from ignite and torches lag us like crazy when near us

Though if you have a great PC that shouldn't be an issue

[fierce ingot]

bro

this solo mode is ridiculous

finally I kept alive

and then 0 portals

spawned

come on are you for real

[bold scaffold]

they are almoust till the end of the circle:D

[coarse ruin]

is anyone having an issue where while the game is running whatever is on your second monitor is really slow?

[spark breach]

That's unfortunate, hopefully your next run is luckier with portal spawns mate

[coarse ruin]

i'd have firefox or youtube running and it'd be super slow and choppy

[fierce ingot]

devs used 5% of their brain when creating solo mode it feels like honestly

[brazen thunder]

anyone wanna recommend a class for solo play?

[bold scaffold]

I think they will make the players more skilled

[spark breach]

It felt extremely fair to me, hopefully your next runs go better Sam

[spark breach]

Fighter and Rouge are good

[brazen thunder]

solo has way to many mobs

[fierce ingot]

indeed

[brazen thunder]

and people also team up in solo mode

[spark breach]

Cleric if you want heals when practicing kiting with less punishing HP bars

[rapid sedge]

anyone else have the infinite matchmaking bug?

[bold scaffold]

i like to play ranger

With ranger its ezy to kite one enemy

[brazen thunder]

ive been doing fighter a while now its fun but keep getting stomped by teams in solo

[spark breach]

From the sound of it you could go barb for it's fear ability or Cleric just to have an easier time mate

[bold scaffold]

and flying bastards are ezy to take care of

[brazen thunder]

I tried mage also and I like it alot but i feel it has a steep learning curve

[tribal hawk]

how can i sell on trading channel ?

how i can ping item*

[elfin ore]

Anyone know if the GPU usage bug from last wipe has returned? I feel like this game is using a lot more of my GPU than it should

[remote orbit]

ye ur not wrong its def using more, had no prob last playtest

[elfin ore]

my 1060 6gb was on almost 100% usage just now

[remote orbit]

last playtest was rly smooth actually for me

[tribal hawk]

how can i ping items on trading post

[bold scaffold]

what do you want from that:D

[elfin ore]

I play tarkov just fine

[brazen thunder]

RIP mine is using more power than last time aswell

[elfin ore]

this game should be no issue

and it wasn't the last two playtests I played

[fierce ingot]

cancer gamwe

im done man

[remote orbit]

maybe the game time will get extended after all the bugs tho no? who knows it did last time.

[bold scaffold]

Game is lovely

[fierce ingot]

impossible flying beetles to kill

[bold scaffold]

hahahahaha

[fierce ingot]

goblin archers hitting for 50% hp

[brazen thunder]

xD

[fierce ingot]

this game has become a joke honestly

back to albion

[bold scaffold]

mby you are just too ezy to tilt?

[brazen thunder]

its not even out yet mate chill xD

[bold scaffold]

dude playing albion and thinks this is similar game

[fierce ingot]

Nah I played last playtest

way better

[strong grove]

There is a chat for general questions? i cant join in the game

[brazen thunder]

thats why its called a playTEST

[bold scaffold]

Well you have option to play in groups and get lvl for better skills or perks+ gear

[bold scaffold]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2016590/Dark_and_Darker/

[bold scaffold]

do you have this?

[strong grove]

Yeah, i know, i just want to know if there a solution or there is only a server congestion

yeah

[old haven]

Does anyone know why my VOIP might not be working?

[fierce ingot]

Maybe I should, solo is a joke.

[brazen thunder]

Agreed solo is terrible

[bold scaffold]

my rtx 3060 is 90% on max settings:D

[brazen thunder]

that doesnt sound right

[elfin ore]

it was a bug as of last wipe but they fixed it

it may have returned, which is what I was getting at earlier

[brazen thunder]

do you guys with GPU problems have intel or AMD CPU?

[bold scaffold]

intel cpu

[elfin ore]

amd

for me

[bold scaffold]

11600k

[brazen thunder]

damn so its not CPU defo GPU prob

[elfin ore]

Ryzen 5 3600 actually

[brazen thunder]

I have AMD but mine working fine

[bold scaffold]

mine is working fine too but the power consumption is too much for 10gb game:D

And there were few people whos pc started to fly:D

[fierce ingot]

my last hope is checking out the normal mode. If that one has become beyond ridiculous, this playtest is over for me 😄

[old haven]

anyone know why my VOIP isnt working? My teammates does but not mine.

[true burrow]

resourcefulness help you open a portal faster?

[late cliff]

they should add a solo high roller dungeon

[brazen thunder]

did you check if your PC is using the correct input device

[bold scaffold]

havent rly got a chace to try normal

[desert blade]

It’s push to talk I think, so you need to make sure it’s on then hit a certain key to actually talk

[old haven]

i cant change input settings for Dark and Darker is the thing

[bold scaffold]

should be all good i hope:D

[eternal otter]

I have a crash issue whenever i get in game, anybody can help me

[brazen thunder]

why dont you and your friend use discord instead?

[gray saffron]

Is there a button to hide UI? Because I keep getting no HUD ingame and I'm not sure what's goin on with that. Inventory and escape doesn't show when this occurs to me.

[bold scaffold]

when you say your crash people might help you

[old haven]

We do. But when I'm solo my voice isn't coming over voip

[eternal otter]

whenever i get in game, this will crash after 10 seconds

This crash look like this:

[brazen thunder]

[eternal otter]

let me try xD

[agile ember]

[woeful halo]

i mean using 2 handed weapons like spear

[eternal otter]

hey i'm back, it still crashes
An Unreal process has crashed: UE5-DungeonCrawler

[agile ember]

yeah, are you dual wielding?

[eternal otter]

i think i need to reinstall this game

[elder quest]

is there a way to lock doors?

it'd be funny if I could lock a jail cell door and trap a team

unlikely ofc

[dry shoal]

it feels like many rogues i come across in mostly common gear can 3 or 4 shot but i dont do nearly the same amount is there something im missing?

[keen hatch]

Does the party share the Points/XP gained through party or is it calculated separately off the kills/loot I pick up? It seems I buff my teammates through fights and they get significantly more points than me.

[brazen thunder]

did you reinstall the game yet?

[potent eagle]

yes

dont work

[brazen thunder]

damn

did you guys try verifying integrity of files in steam?

[glacial sluice]

If I queue for high roller is it 100 per person or from just leader

[eternal otter]

choose another server

[brazen thunder]

or are any of you runniog MSI Afterburner in the background?

[dusk owl]

Alright, we actually just found a lobby. Finale question for now, can I change how my character looks? I don't like the hairstyle.

[rain kernel]

Is my old account still around from last playtest? Will my account get wiped again after this playtest? I got like sick cosmetic stuff for nothing????

[nova light]

MSI applications would be rtss based

[signal python]

is gold key a high roller only thing?

[nova light]

not kernel i wouldnt think

[potent eagle]

already did that

[signal python]

yes everything gets wiped again

[eternal otter]

i can play well in the previous test, this crash just appears in this demo version

[brazen thunder]

I saw the kernel error but that could pop up with almost any issue

[rapid yacht]

how long is the demo going to last?

[brazen thunder]

I heard there are alot of problems with MSI Afterburner when trying to play the game

[dapper totem]

@tiny path GG bro

[potent eagle]

I don't use msi, GG haha

can't play

[spark breach]

Just got out of a solo dungeon with nothing but starter stuff and managed to leave through a staircase after killing a ranger who had full greens and a blue. Is the staircase a one person use location per a game?

[sly spruce]

Hey so when i put some pant with +2 spell memory and +1 Knowledge in the lobby my stats dont change. Im still 12/12 spell slots. Is this normal?

[nova mango]

why does the game crash as soon as i click ok

[sly spruce]

Treasure Merchant

[marsh jungle]

There's a banker merchant you can buy gold coins from with silver

[spice linden]

Everyone

[visual cloak]

is shift walking and crouching the same sound reduction?

[sly spruce]

Are ur guys stats not updating in the Lobby when u equip gear? My knowledge and spell memory is not going up.

[flint ridge]

Best class?

[visual cloak]

Fighter is a good all rounder, ranger is pretty good for default utility and wizard is probably best supporting class for DPS

[spark breach]

They are all fairly balanced, play what you think you will enjoy and work towards your play style the best

[dawn dagger]

Is anyone else haveing bug where you can't increase your knowlege as a cleric even with gear?

[sly spruce]

same i been trying to ask for help

[drowsy crown]

for forgotten castle when it says no ingame timer does that mean theres nothing rushing u or that it just wont display how much time u have left?

[nova mango]

bro my game crashes instantly

i even verified files

am i missing something?

[eternal otter]

like this bro ?

[nova mango]

i think so?

[coral sparrow]

no but my game gets so loud for some reason

[dull dock]

Anyone else having 99% GPU utilization? 3070 and I’ve tried every setting combo possible. The game instantly drops the utilization to 1% after I close it

[alpine apex]

yep, same issue. however, the gear will in fact increase your knowledge value, the UI just won't show it until you're in-game (it will still look like spells are greyed out until you load in). the lobby still shows only 12 knowledge but once i'm in-game i have the 20 that i'm supposed to from the gear and i can cast all my spells no problem

[sly spruce]

Do u know what the conversion of Knowledge = Spell Memory slots? I have a +2 memory and +1 Knowledge item so I know it should be at least 14/14

But I do not know how much Knowledge gives

[alpine apex]

You always have 5 slots regardless. To my understanding, knowledge is 1:1 with the number of points you have to apply to those 5 spells

[sly spruce]

Ok cool so I should get 15/15 then?

[alpine apex]

Tbh I don't really know what memory does but if that's its function then yes!

[errant gazelle]

How do I get voip to work with my desk mic

[alpine apex]

where do you see the memory stat?

[errant gazelle]

is there no slowmo

oh

you see it in your character sheet to the left of skills

[sly spruce]

I assume its what lets u have more powerful spells in ur 5 slots. Its why u cant have resurrections and other high tier spells.

[alpine apex]

You should be able to use any spell as long as you have the knowledge points for it. On a naked character you should be able to use Resurrect just fine since you have 12 knowledge points and Resurrect costs 8

[errant gazelle]

Your spells get cheaper as you level

and the more knowledge the better

[carmine crow]

Do they plan on opening a full version that wont get taken down every now and then like a non playtest version

[errant gazelle]

yes

anyway can anyone help me with voip

[old haven]

i wish to know why my voip wont work too lol

[merry halo]

my friend has the same issue

[errant gazelle]

[unborn stone]

will the combat system change or is this combat how it will be going forward?

[mellow slate]

@nova mango disable MSI Afterburner / Riva Tuner Statistics Server/Software? GEForce Overlay, Steam In Game Overlay, or other like software.

[nova mango]

alright

[hardy brook]

how come when i put on spell capacity boots as a cleric my spell memory doesn't increase?

at least on the main menu

[daring pasture]

what grants exp?

[mellow slate]

Killing. Looting. Escaping.

[daring pasture]

thank you

[ocean knot]

how long open beta?

[thorny sundial]

Is shadow fixed yet?

[mild nest]

my weapons are glitched it wont let me holster or anything like that

anyone got a fix?

[mellow slate]

The playtest looks like it'll be up for 6-7 days this time.

Restart your game.

[flint ridge]

How do you sell things like bangles and goblets?

[hardy brook]

collector

[prisma sequoia]

is it worth just using potions only for barbarian because of how long it takes to use a bandage?

[mild nest]

We died anyways lmao

[mellow slate]

Shadow is not fixed yet iirc.

[coarse cove]

I do this as barb, bring different kinds so you can stack the potions so they heal at the same time

[mellow slate]

Potions are HPS, and bandages are static. So pop a potion AND use a bandage. ^ Or that, if they stack.

[flat escarp]

do shields block 100% of damage?

[prisma sequoia]

you can bring a 19hp heal and a 15 so they stack when you use?

[coarse cove]

Yes! You drink one then the other, they heal at the same time

[mellow slate]

If the block was successful I believe so Bucket but I"m not 100% sure./

[prisma sequoia]

omg wow thanks for telling me that

[coarse cove]

No problem, learnt this on accident last playtest. Saved me multiple times since

[compact iris]

is there if clear list of what gives exp? T.i.a.

[mellow slate]

Looting items. Killing NPCS, Players. Going down a level I think? As well as extracting.

I do not believe that doing damage, or healing, or assisting gives xp. Could be wrong.

[compact iris]

like is there defined list of how much exp it gives?

[mellow slate]

Oh idk, you'd have to check one of the player guides and see if they listed it.

[compact iris]

thank you!

[grave lintel]

Any news on shadow tech fix?

[mellow slate]

Look for something tomorrow.

[wraith crater]

anyone have issue stutter stepping?

[stuck remnant]

i ran into a bug that didnt allow me to heal it just kept punching

[ebon haven]

is there any way to restore characters from the previous playtest?

or use them again?

[wraith crater]

my movement are bugged n same with attacks

[mellow slate]

Multiple people with stuttering and microstutters.

[thick drum]

are spiders now legitimately unhittable in the thorax now with daggers?

[mellow slate]

No, all characters are from level 0 with nothing. Fresh Start.

[ebon haven]

F

[mellow slate]

I"m not sure Eric, have you tried crouching?

[karmic nymph]

queues are taking longer this test?

[mellow slate]

Yes Belmail.

[grave lintel]

Damn I was hoping it’d be up when I got home. But thank you 😭

[thick drum]

tried crouching into it and crouch jumping into the hit but then the body blocking and collision is so bad the spider aggro literally pushes the model back far enough to stop the hit

[karmic nymph]

is there a server issue with it?

[mellow slate]

Unsure Belmail. They are aware.

[thick drum]

the hit boxes are just very obscure

[karmic nymph]

ah

[hidden fractal]

@mellow slate @sinful flame @fast surge @high snow I figured out the issue with windows 7. Look into the folder "Dark and Darker Demo\DungeonCrawler\Binaries\Win64\D3D12". This game is using DirectX 12. DirectX 12 is not supported for Windows 7, it is not possible to install it

[spare sentinel]

hey, i got my account permanently revoked. the only thing i could say i did that was innapropriate was name my character PhlacidPhallus (a lame and sligtly lewd joke). what do i do and is there a way i can get my account back?

[fast surge]

@hidden fractal cant I drop in a xinput_4.dll or something

[mellow slate]

Idk Lazerdust, can you? What does that do?

So it looks like they forced DX12, and disabled DX11 support?

[fast surge]

@mellow slate nothing I tried. it thinks a little bit longer about loading

[subtle hollow]

ue5 doesnt support windows 7

[mellow slate]

It did last year.

[fast surge]

@it works on marauders

[subtle hollow]

check the site, i dont think i can link

[mellow slate]

Whether on purpose or not.

[hidden fractal]

I assume so. I tried to give it the flag -dx11 to force dx11, but no dice

[subtle hollow]

same lol

[fast surge]

ok so I have to pull up my shipwreck of windows 10

[hidden fractal]

they are using ue5.0. From my research today I think it is only 5.1 that doesn't support it

[fast surge]

a corsair update crashed it. the drivers corrupted the boot. and it was a dual boot instal from 7

[subtle hollow]

ya i saw 5.1 doesnt support, so i assumed that was the case

[hidden fractal]

the crash files show that they are using 5.0.3. I assume that they dropped DX11 support to save dev time and effort

[restive bridge]

is east coast server still down?

[subtle hollow]

<EngineVersion>5.0.3-0+++UE5+Release-5.0</EngineVersion>
<BuildVersion>++UE5+Release-5.0-CL-0</BuildVersion>

u sure its 5.0.3?

[burnt badger]

How to use voicechat?

[mellow slate]

Well just send in a Report a Bug report with what you've figured out. Save the devs some time and hopefully they can do something about it for us. Who knows.

[quick verge]

Is Sanctuary on Cleric bugged? It doesn't heal over time and there's no visual. Wondering if there's a bugged interaction with the Advanced Healer perk.

[still parcel]

Anyone else experiencing the stutters / sudden screen tears time to time? Last beta I didn't have a single issue. PC is top notch. Internet is great. Ideas?

[burnt badger]

Is the voice chat broken?

[mystic bobcat]

mine funny too

[quick verge]

@still parcel there doesn't appear to be a way to enable v-sync in game. I had to turn it on in the Nvidia control panel

[still parcel]

But generally you always want it off...and I can't imagine any need for it on this game. I will look into that when I get home though! Thank you.

[quick verge]

I just always get screen tearing in any game if vsync is off

[stone comet]

in the lobby/stash screen - when I change my gear my stats aren't changing - is it just a visual bug?

[hollow locust]

Is there a way to configure a controller to work with the game? I want to use my xbox controller

[royal wind]

can you cheese troll as ranger

[brazen thunder]

not anymore

[tiny dagger]

are stats from items working properly? my friend says his knowledge gear isn't increasing his spell capacity as a cleric

[old haven]

so upset when my voip doesnt work, glad to see when they lose their teammates after though

[radiant hill]

quesion, quick chant for Wiz only gives 10% spell cast speed instead of 20%

That normal?

its a perk that should grant 20% cast speed.

[stiff pier]

which keybind in the menu is your push to talk button?

[quick verge]

As a follow up it does seem like you shouldn't bring Advanced Healer with Sanctuary. Sanctuary works fine without it.

[true python]

Okay -- I got a message on startup about my Intel graphics driver needing a downgrade from something.31 to something.30 - does anyone have any idea how to get a copy of that previous version driver to downgrade to? It says there's known issues in teh current driver

[vagrant token]

so ive got a crappy laptop at the moment and have been using a software called Shadow to play games on (its basically a high end pc that is streamed to my laptop that i pay monthly to use) but the game has decided that it a virtual machine and wont let me start it, with the prompt to turn off my vm then start the game again
(note that i did play the first playtest and i was able to play it with no issues)

[opal zodiac]

devs are aware of it and working on a fix: #known-bugs message

[vagrant token]

thank god, probably shouldve checked that channel fist but thanks for clearing that up

[surreal hollow]

Does anyone have a rough idea on the HP pool of cave troll?

[trail matrix]

how do u kill death beetles

[spice fractal]

Anyone know what the golden key is for?

[surreal hollow]

Golden key is for one of the high roller maps

[grand ice]

what exactly is it that gives you exp for leveling up? Killing monsters, extracting, looting chests, killing players, all of the above? What gives more, how much does it take to level? These and more burning questions we'd all like to know

[spice fractal]

ty

[errant perch]

Can anyone explain what all the stats mean like what is +1 healing I passively heal my self?

[spice fractal]

yea

[errant perch]

but there is so many stats what do they all mean

[spice fractal]

so magical healing would be healing from spells

and +1 healing is most likely from physical heals

[unborn eagle]

Do you have to stand still for sanctuary to work or something?

[spice fractal]

[marsh oasis]

nope

[spice fractal]

yra

[marsh oasis]

let me try without afterburn

[spice fractal]

they said that that would crash the game

[storm harness]

yeah! maybe!

but i still running with msi

[wise girder]

You've got to look down at them and do a lockpicking quick time event

(... good luck)

[karmic wedge]

anyone know why im stuttering when things spawn and animations ? This never happened befor

[spice fractal]

np it was in the community announcements, I didn't do much

[quiet glade]

anyone have any strats for dealing with barbs as fighters? They’re tanks and 2 shot me even when I’m full blue plate

[spice fractal]

barbs are slowish with their swing id just practice blocking with a shield, with their wide swings once youve got it down its easy to block and counter

or just use your movement speed to bait their attack and stab once they missed and repeat

[quiet glade]

What about hasted barbs or with 2h weps?

[spice fractal]

yea i cant lie i was just doing that with my team, its just straight up cancer

[quiet glade]

Yeah it’s broken rn. They’re too tanky to deal with

Haven’t figured out a solution yet

[spice fractal]

my cleric would just spam buff and heal and i would die running into 3 people

its a bit broken

[quiet glade]

In mid game gear at least

[marsh jungle]

Last play test I ran the big crossbow on my fighter as a secondary, if you headshot them on the way in it helps a bit, but with the right comp barb>fighter, longsword/spear felt good with headshots as well

[quiet glade]

I think that’s ultimately what I’ve come to the conclusion of. What would be the barb counter comp? Archers?

[marsh jungle]

Yea any good ranged that can stall their opener, the cleric buffs go by fast, and having wizard hold chain lighting on the entrance is solid as well, alot of times the cleric stays too close to barbs

[thorny sundial]

Sigh IronShield hates us 🤣 let us iinnnn

[spark cedar]

Is the stash going to be account bound at any point? Anyone have any idea?

[thorny sundial]

I imagine loot you get will always have some form of wipe like tarkov

[marsh jungle]

They said no currently planned@spark cedar

[spice fractal]

yea that's what i expect

[glad crane]

is there proxy chat and do i keep my leveled chartacters?

[thorny sundial]

VoIP yes, keeping characters not yet no

[glad crane]

what is voip

[spice fractal]

in game voice chay

[thorny sundial]

Not sure what it stands for but it's proxy chat like cod

Is there a way to report edgelords spouting off "gamer words" in VoIP?

[thorny sundial]

They said there was I haven't seen a way to in game report but download medal and you can clip things with sound

[rare coyote]

Does the game use the default input device for VoIP and is there any way to change it?

[thorny sundial]

No way to change it sadly only have to change your default

[prisma sequoia]

what do yall think the best class is rn?

[spice fractal]

depends

[thorny sundial]

Solo or with a team?

[spice fractal]

yea

[prisma sequoia]

in a duo instance

[thorny sundial]

I'd say best duo is like fighter or barbarian with a wizard or cleric

[spice fractal]

barb+cleric is my go too

[thorny sundial]

Everything is gimped tho without full perks tho so try hitting 15 on every class and see which feels right for y'all, barb cleric is strong heals and tank and good PvE clearing

[storm cave]

Any plan to release the game in alpha?

[spice fractal]

this is alpha testing

[storm cave]

I meant early access, my bad. Similar to other games where you purchase it while it’s in alpha. I’m really enjoying it

[spice fractal]

they will mostly like eventually if i remember correctly they said they are about 60% done

[storm cave]

Sick, thanks for the info!

[stable storm]

Is there a way to refine ore yet?

[spice fractal]

refine?

you can craft them into ingots at the traders

then use those to buy gear

[unkempt lake]

is goblin merchant supposed to be selling trash gear for 100 gold or is my game bugged

[topaz remnant]

My game is stuttering] over and over whenever I get into PVP and visual scenes. Im running 1080ti and ryzen 7 2700x , 16gb ram. never had a problem like this playing with the game any recomendations?

[spice fractal]

its mostly likely the servers, under heavy strain with the amount of people playing

[unkempt lake]

turning off my ram cleaner helped

[topaz remnant]

is that on by default or something?

[deft warren]

Is it true you can only lvl up once per run?

[unkempt lake]

nah for tarkov i had it running but it crashes this game

[daring halo]

are reactive shield/ice shield any good on wizard?

i havent ever seen anyone use it

the 10dmg block dosent go far

how do i select my region

[spice fractal]

at lobby above the ready/start buttom

[prisma sequoia]

what do yall think the best class is rn?

[glad crane]

im blind

oops

[spice fractal]

depends solo or duo/trio

[prisma sequoia]

duo

[amber yacht]

does lich health reset upon entering and reentering the room?

[spice fractal]

barb/fighter, with a cleric is rly good, honestly any melee works well with cleric

[unkempt lake]

barb

i run one with dual wield hatchet horsemans and one with smash and any 2 hander

can duo wipe squads pretty easily

[mystic beacon]

what are the best base items to look out for from valentine?

[unkempt lake]

god roll felling axes

idk bout anything else

[burnt badger]

do we keep the items in the playtest into the full game?

[spice fractal]

nope

[tight valley]

Anyone know how to open the iron gate in Solo that lets you extract?

[mild scarab]

are they adding guns to dark and darker

[thorny sundial]

Honestly they probably could add guns like in pillar of eternity when it's old pirate guns

[gloomy osprey]

First is anyone experiencing on Ranger a bug where you can no longer interact with anything in the game? Seems to be linked to canceling a shot. Also is there any way to prevent?

[spice fractal]

yea

and no

[thorny sundial]

I had one run like that I when into my inventory and dropped my bow and it fixed it for some reason

[shrewd heron]

lol

[spice fractal]

ive tried but it wouldnt let be drop my bow for me

[gloomy osprey]

Happens to me literally every run when I play ranger and I can't drop bow or any items when it happens

[vale marten]

How to separate overlapping items

[thorny sundial]

A arbalest (like the crossbow big and one shot) a rifle, and then weak pistols you can dual wield.

[hushed harbor]

Can you break a barrel with a dagger?

[shrewd heron]

Adding even single shot black powdr guns is a terrible idea

[shrewd heron]

No

[hushed harbor]

How about a rapier?

Can you break a barrel with a rapier?

[thorny sundial]

No as well, they need to make barrel's weaker

[hushed harbor]

Ikr

[shrewd heron]

You can break them with a pickaxe, which you can keep in a toolbelt slot

Woodsman sells them for 25 gold

Though tbh as a rogue I just skip them, better to focus on chests with high opening speed

[unkempt lake]

hold alt and drag item

[vale marten]

tyu

[thorny sundial]

Idk man I got a few purples from barrel's it's hard to pass

[unkempt lake]

np

[hushed harbor]

Its just that sometimes theres a chest behind stacks of barrels and its frustrating that you cant get it

[unkempt lake]

any fighters want a free spear ill pay for trade fee cuz i give up trying to sell it

+3 strength

[thorny sundial]

You can crouch jump on barrels

[hushed harbor]

Damn thats good info

Thanks

[thorny sundial]

You can also climb ladders in this game to get to sneaky spots

[unkempt lake]

did u confirm if u can still get on top of that chandelier in the 4 room area

cuz i tried and i couldnt stick to the ladders no more

[tired lichen]

I blocked a barb's felling axe attack with my heater shield, returned a swing with my mace, and was met simultaneously with another swing from the barbarian. How do I counter a barb who can just keep swinging even after having their swing blocked?

[unkempt lake]

prob has the smash perk has chance to break block

[hushed harbor]

Do you like hold space and W to climb?

[unkempt lake]

and my answer is become a barb

[thorny sundial]

I have yes you can still do it and there's the platform there still as well that people don't look up to check

[unkempt lake]

ill try it ty

[tired lichen]

Is there any indicator that tells me whether theyve broken it or not?

[unkempt lake]

uhm usually it looks like ur shield got knocked down

[thorny sundial]

You gotta get in the middle of the ladder and jump crouch at the same time and you'll see yourself move up each jump

[unkempt lake]

and they are swinging immediately again

[clever umbra]

if poisoned weapon does 4 magic damage can we amplify it by using a weapon that gives +magic damage?

[thorny sundial]

Last playtest this did work yes I haven't gotten a magic damage dagger yet to test

[clever umbra]

@thorny sundial I hope it still works i was having so much fun last play test xd

[thorny sundial]

When you get something go to the tavern and try it on the dumbies downstairs I didn't see anything about them changing it in the patch notes

[clever umbra]

i will let you know once i find a magic dagger

[thorny sundial]

Thank you, hopefully shadow is fixed soon so we can play the game as well

[marble radish]

Anyone know how long footsteps are able to be seen with ranger perk? Like how far behind someone you can be before steps disappear?

[clever umbra]

this play test fps is kinda bad for me for some reason just random dsync or is it just me

[mild scarab]

Anyone know how to fight the troll with melee or is it not possible?

[dusty drift]

if you use the wizard fire enchant spell on bows do they shoot fire arrows?

[daring pasture]

dnd reddit has a video

[upper path]

when the hotfix 1 release

[strong terrace]

i speak in voip but no one can hear me, friends having same issue any ideas? tried multiple keybinds, made sure voip is on and set to proximity

[daring pasture]

some ppl were talking about the voip mic not being the mic they actually use

or smthing like that i guess

people don't seem to rly use voip so it took me a few hours before someone actually responded to me

[wise girder]

It seems like most people have it off or something

[wise girder]

One of my friends said they had to get their mouth riiiight next to their mic- might be a sensitivity thing?

[daring pasture]

[shrewd quest]

What/where are golden keys used, and, or otherwise good for?

[spice fractal]

they are for high rollers

[nova mango]

why is the new dungeon so ridiculously hard

[spice fractal]

you can sell them for a pretty penny if you dont plan on running high rollers and bosses

rn you could get 500-700G

put it up on utility someone will buy

[nova mango]

they got shorter red skeletons with shield that also poison you, move faster than you, do half health with one swing (not including poison) and they are in every room

[spice fractal]

@shrewd quest

[shrewd quest]

Appreciated.

[fickle umbra]

Why did you implement this stupid censorship? I can't use my name Hartassen cause "ass" is inappropriate? Seriously disappointing and immature to censor words in this manner.

[thorny sundial]

Please hot fix shadow

[prime venture]

the filter is a bit inaccurate, it will be fixed over time

[maiden socket]

Does the troll have out of combat regen? just wondering if it is possible for rangers to cheese him

[solar shadow]

am i missing something or can you not block or parry with weapons

or is it only certain ones?

[shrewd heron]

Bardiche, longsword, and spear are the only blocking weapons I know of. Longsword can also riposte

[grand ore]

The perk for Wizard - Ice Shield, it says inflicts Frostbite on melee attack targets for 0.5s, does that mean when the wizard hits a target? Or when the Wizard is hit by someone, they get frosted?

The concept of it being a shield makes it seem like the latter, but the wording of a target seems to imply wizard attacks cause it.

[shrewd heron]

When they hit you

[grand ore]

Well sugar tits, that makes it a lot less nice than I was hoping. Thanks

[sick lotus]

How do you copy item link?

[coral grove]

Has anyone found a way to bypass the ironshield anti cheat to play with a virtual machine. Or is there a time that they have stated they will be allowing virtual machine play in the future?

[late ore]

how do I split items

[burnt thistle]

Are there any training rooms in This game?

[coral grove]

coming up on 18 hrs and still no fix that ive found for this

[grand ore]

currently, only during lobbies

which are so fast, you typically don't get time to test much

unless you go high roller

[late ore]

can I split stacks

[thorny sundial]

Still no word as far as I know other then they are trying. Fingers crossed cause this is shitty being locked out

[grand ore]

alt drag drop

[ripe wind]

Profanity filters are great… they never serve the purpose they were made for, instead they encourage and motivate people to come up with far worse and more offensive ways to be offensive or insult people 🤣

[late ore]

ty sir

[dusk totem]

it shows those controls at the very top of your stash

[coral grove]

yeah bro took off 3 days for this playtest and one of them so far has been wasted

[grand ore]

ironshield anti cheat is used in a lot of games, i wish you luck but i'm sure there's a fix out there already

[coral grove]

i didnt even encounter a hacker in the 80hrs i clocked on the last playtest so idk what they were so afraid of.

[ripe wind]

The anti cheat blocking VM is probably intentional to prevent people from trading items to themselves or farming themselves for XP or whatever

[thorny sundial]

I'd rather have the easy anti cheat and be able to play then this stuck at work reading a book or playing Yu-Gi-Oh rn

[grand ore]

that requires you load into the same dungeon, or just open up a laptop to get around teh trading thing.

[coral grove]

well considering its cheaper to pay for virtual machines than build one and ease of access that comes along with it kind of have to bite the bullet for your community to be able to enjoy the product.

[ripe wind]

Just buy 10 laptop sure whoever invented VM was a dumdum it’s so much easier to just buy more

[coral grove]

cringiest thing ive read today by far considering virtual machines are taking over the scene llol

[thorny sundial]

20$ a month vs however much laptops are

[ripe wind]

Woosh

[coral grove]

right lol

[grand ore]

why... if you're just trying to do the things you suggested, most people have a second machine around LOL

[mossy holly]

when does the testing end?

[grand ore]

VM's are free if you are minorly technically inclined

[eternal otter]

why my game still crashes when i get in @@

[thorny sundial]

I wish you the best of luck to try to hack into shadow and get a PC of theirs working for you

[coral grove]

lol

i wish him the best of luck of creating anything even close to the power of shadows VM

its outperforming geoforce shadowplay in every category

[thorny sundial]

It's way better then my own PC at home but it comes in clutch when I'm on the job the work PC isn't good but I could download shadow and play anything max settings

[grand ore]

I feel like i'm missing something here, most VM's don't need to be that strong, I typically use it for dev work. Why would you be talking smack about how high preformance a VM is?

This is a reasonably light game

[coral grove]

this vm is running a 3090ti i believe so it beats out most pcs in general

[karmic wigeon]

@coral grove Shadow is the number one most requested suggestion right now and the devs stated at 2 PM EST yesterday that they will "Hopefully have a fix for Shadow shortly". I doubt other VM solutions that are free will be whitelisted however.

[coral grove]

That is the best news ive heard all day!

[karmic wigeon]

Yeah, they said they're working on it. Should be 1 line of code to check for something Shadow specific and the Shadow devs themselves said they contacted Ironmace to assist

[arctic goblet]

Does anyone know if it is possible to parry or block a troll attack?

[grand ore]

see, i first responded to bullhorn who was talking about people skirting the rules, my intent was that blacklisting VM's wouldn't have a significant effect on doing that because of how easy it is to replicate .

VM's are great for those who need them. I hope their fix comes soon

[versed olive]

What stat makes you mine faster

[grand ore]

last wipe was agi, same as other interactions

[versed olive]

So agi gotcha

thx

[thorny sundial]

Watching Xqc play Hogwarts makes me happy I cancelled my pre order

[inner prism]

Resourcefulness also helps interaction speed

[errant perch]

does phsyical power just give me extra power to my sword hit

[inner prism]

Yes, if it was physical damage.. it would add to abilities like rupture (rogue)

[errant perch]

oh wait what

[grand ore]

actually, i think it's just resourcefulness now that you say that, i think i was wrong earlier @versed olive

[errant perch]

wait it doesnt boost my fighter sword?

[inner prism]

+physical damage ass to rupture bleed and +magic damage adds to poison dagger damage

[opal zodiac]

they acknowledged the issue (with shadow specifically) in the #known-bugs channel, i am hoping for a fix to roll out overnight/tomorrow 🤞

[inner prism]

Yes, it adds to physical attacks… but I’m like 90% sure not abilities

Like rend

[errant perch]

wait so if i swing my sword and hit someone will it do more damage

because of the physical power

[inner prism]

Yes

[errant perch]

ok thanks

[inner prism]

What’s shadow

[karmic wigeon]

@opal zodiac hoping soon as well, its 4:05 PM in Korea right now so hopefully in next few hours.

[inner prism]

I hope they fix weakpoint and rupture… almost a day in and no fix

[karmic wigeon]

@inner prism its a paid cloud Windows gaming PC VM service to play video games over a high speed video stream connection

[inner prism]

So it sounds like a streaming service?

Or does it make your connection better

[opal zodiac]

similar to geforce now, but you have access to a full windows machine, rather than specific games

[karmic wigeon]

@inner prism for people with crappy PCs or OS like Mac that the games don't support.

[inner prism]

OH

My pc parts go brrrrr

Give newegg money for 3080ti and call it a day

[opal zodiac]

i saw somewhere on the subreddit that dark and darker devs said they will launch on geforce now but no timeline yet

[karmic wigeon]

Yeah I'm on a $2500 Mac for development purposes, I can't use Boot Camp either due to having Apple Silicon chipset. Boot Camp only supports Intel chips. A 3080TI alone wouldn't do anything...

[bleak spade]

does the perks to increase fire damage on wizard ally to allies when he buffs their team with ignite?

[opal zodiac]

same i am on a m1 pro from work lol

[karmic wigeon]

@opal zodiac I doubt NVIDIA would waste time on giving support to a pre-release demo. Probably full release.

[opal zodiac]

it's actually part of the february lineup according to the gfn blog: https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2023/02/02/geforce-now-thursday-feb-2/

[tardy veldt]

Do mummies count as undead?

[karmic wigeon]

@opal zodiac hopefully, I have GeForce Now as well. I don't see it here though and it is now the 7th :/

[mystic gulch]

do your stats increase as you level?

[quaint berry]

anyone else know how or why in game I can hear my teammates but when I press the "press to talk" button, they cannot hear me??

[opal zodiac]

yeah i've been checking often, i am on the gfn founder pricing so i'd drop shadow the moment it's on gfn

[karmic wigeon]

@opal zodiac tag me when you see it!

[fierce mountain]

Hello Friends. I'm getting a 0x000 Error on Launch. I'm sure everyone already knows about this... What do I do to fix it?

[opal zodiac]

will do

[karmic wigeon]

Not sure, what is the full error? @fierce mountain

[fierce mountain]

0X000000000000000

It's just Zero's....

[karmic wigeon]

Have you tried resetting?

[fierce mountain]

Yes.

Verified Files, Restarted PC. Re-Installed game. --- The Previous Playtest worked.

No one has seen 0x000?

[spice fractal]

do you have msi afterburnner or something similar on?

[crude lantern]

You have to turn off MSI Afterburner

[fierce mountain]

I saw that in a Forum. I have it installed, but it is not running. It's not even an active process.

[fierce mountain]

It's not even running in the Process list.

I'll just try to Un-Install AfterBurner and then reboot... brb

Hello guys. Has the matchmaking been fixed?

[rain saddle]

What was broken

[deft kettle]

have had this thing happen a few times this playtest that didn't happen before - wailing on a guy, guy kills me, i spec, he has taken no damage. spec guy for a while, he takes damage from mobs. pretty sure not hacks. when i say wailing on, i mean i get the hit sound. anyone else? known bug?

[river sparrow]

Yesterday evening you could wait 5-10 minutes for a game to start and the lobby was nrver full. Often 15/16 and the last guy wad never found. We even had a game started with 11/16 people, while there were around 100k people online

[deep magnet]

How are people finding Barb this time? My personal thoughts are that they need a little something to be more fun/good.

[spice fractal]

solo they might not be the best

but they are the best with a duo or trio in my opinion

[deep magnet]

True. With a cleric they can be veryy good

[burnt badger]

if I have an item that gives me +magical damage and +magical power on a barbarian, do I do more damage? because I don't do any spells so I am unsure...

[onyx meteor]

How does the new cleric spell work?

[void palm]

Is cleric new skill can also recover enemys health too？

Thats amazing

[thorny sundial]

Maybe pots and strong shielding juice? What weapons do you have I found as a rogue I'm basically using sewing needlings as daggers

[river sparrow]

I have a feeling that assasin or fighter benefit from cleric way more...

[deep magnet]

True, mostly based on barbs inability to move while swinging. Fighting a rouge, they can pretty much swing, and run away, all while barb is still winding up their swing lol

[crude lantern]

no i think

[mental shore]

why at the end of a dungeon on the solo goblin dungeon , the rogue killed the last guy and as the darkness closed and the set was said about the darkness comsumes all or w/e , the rogue jumped up and down (not sure if this had anything to do with it ) and the circle reset , he then went on to mine all the ore around the map .

he jumped none stop

the circle reset

[elfin grail]

Any new updates on Ranger bug or general server issues?

[mental shore]

he had a inventory full of ore

[river sparrow]

Rogue damage can be doubled by cleric buffs, which is insane 😃

[void palm]

But my friend said that he was a fighter and was bleeding back by the opposite cleric's skill, and that there was no cleric in our team

[loud portal]

A friend of mine downloaded the game but once it finished it no longer showed up in his steam library
and it keeps repeating the same message "Disc write error"

[thorny sundial]

Download medal to be able to record clips, that sounds weird tho

[crude lantern]

weird

[void palm]

feeling same

[lost helm]

Anyone elses mouse goes to the side of the screen and they cant attack/block??

[karmic wigeon]

@opal zodiac GeForce Now on Apple Silicon Macs just updated, still no Dark & Darker 😢

[thorny sundial]

Looking like we might lose a second day of the demo

[kind moth]

anyone know

why i cant write in the LFG channel?

[burnt badger]

if I have an item that gives me +magical damage and +magical power on a barbarian, do I do more damage? because I don't do any spells so I am unsure...

and what is the cobalt/rubysilver powder used for?

[broken root]

thats useless on barbarian, and if you have that on a stuff that only barb can use well its unlucky roll

[lilac gale]

How much is a golden key worth pls ?
