It’s a halberd fighter meta don’t let them fool you Ykwtfgo
war maul bobby b Baratheon fighter meta
not realistic longsword was actually mentioned
HalBis*
best duo/trio comp currently?
ranger lock is everywhere in duos rn
when’s wipe
i get only toxic fckers in arena 5 matches in a row, IM start giving perm for those kidos, not just cheaters
3 to 4 weeks
what do you think the exemplar or demigod rewards going to be for ranked
somekind of skin
i mean yeah but like campfire emote torch etc because i’m debating on demigod since i have a soul scrapper i literally can’t lose 1s
i’m exemplar 2 rn


servers are so bad rn my character spazzes out when i pull anything out
gear score ruined this game
just hit demi
it’s so much work
like just a single kill barely gets me anything and i don’t wanna resort to ap farming with a named weapon on me 😭
No it isn’t
true. but should have a gear just for new players
what’s the method for ap
Warlock ice abyss kill sub bosses and extract with purple or better items
i’m barb
Then do that with barb… ??
hello ? sorcerer ? omg
fuck ice abyss bro i have a felling axe every mob outranges me
Skill issue then. U literally can just play an easier class to farm to Demi but u won’t do it for yourself so there’s no helping you lmao
lmao 😹
just for the kids with mental problems isnt a good excuse to nuke the game
would you guys slot Vigor or action speed on a barb helmet with 3max hp and 2 strength
gearscore is really hilariously bad and makes the whole game a mess
anyone have tips for maximizing performance in dnd for a low end pc
@slender kraken it does feel unfair for classes like rouge that can run a purple stilleto. and classes like wiz that want a good book and sword feel ass
sorc and druid dont need like anything but white weapons either etc so many problems
i went into the crypt and was looking at the interactive map and i couldnt find my map layout is it not updated or something?
random question chat when does next wipe happen?
are the servers lagging or is it just me, theres a delay pulling things out
lower resolution
whats a stable item to use to store gold, like golden keys
no news about the new patch?
lmao that cheater in hr who instant run on us . its not the same ..
another 1,000 players gone ( -10% ) on steam, month over month
what resolution would you recommend
I'm also getting burned out from going to inferno and having to clear fcking 15 modules to find ghost king, lately I only play this game for arena
only chineese left on the game lol
the lowest possible. When you have bad fps you should have disvantage playing competitive games.
I mean, try to lower all settings see if the fps is alright. Them last resort is to lower resolution.
How many times are players going to get railed up the pooper by warlocks and druids before the game gets boring? Not an infinite number
I thought I would play 8hours today. After so many death to a panther I decided I'm done...
does luck work again? Seen people runningpots
what class are u playing ?
is game working?
has it ever worked?
I thought it was working at least a wipe ago (before gear changes)
How luck can be tested so that one can say: it works, I tested it?
loot crap a ton of times and keep track of it to get statistics
Large scale pooling of data of dropped items compared against drop rates when taking into account standard deviation
listen to @lethal bluff I'm cooked in statistics
Or, maybe there is a statement from IM about this somewhere? Don't know who would spend such amount of time testing a single game stat.
No bc devs aren’t aware of anything, they only found out bhopping was a thing like 2 months ago bruh
wait till they find out about hotswapping, sh!ts gonna go crazy
true. However, there have been people who did that kind of stuff in tarkov, so maybe somebody would
quick question can you find a grimsmile ring?
on dead bodies but that’s about it
no, only crafted, if not I'd be hunting for voidblades wherever they be dropping and profit
thx
gotta put some gear score limit on arena so people don't come in base kit
when we will get patch?
yesterday I saw on an enemy team a butt a$$ naked druid that would go into rat form and start saying "The power within" over 100 times before we caught it, felt bad for the enemy team, hope they reported him
please for the love of god they need to add a grief button to the reporting.
I haven't seen any statement so far, only players' guess.
also they started rambling about walmart prices or something idk
are they on some type of vacations or smth?
what fucking rating were you in lmao some skeleton named "probablyadiddyvictim" as a sorc, came in bare bones and started throwing water balls and walking into them.
idk 900?
yeah i was about to say that was 860 for me.
850 maybe I dropped hard after trying a rogue kit and getting my sh!t rocked, never again
bro the roleplayers are going for 800
wait I got an idea... what if... I played pickpocket rogue in arena
No but last time they said will space out patches.
Steal a ranger’s arrows
or an actually good weapon from people who have gear changes (like longsword and crystal sword warlock that swaps depending on situation?)
Then they would lose it for good even if I lost
You could probably take some good windlass crossbows out of circulation
I've seen somewhere it doesn't work, but don't remember where, so I can't give you a source.
aww 😦
I’ve thought about doing it but my duo refuses to let me try
No patch this week I guess
Patch will be delayed for 3 more weeks so they can add game breaking dwarf skin, barf emote, 3 new lobby skins
felling axe barbarians would hate this
so theres a dude live on yt rn apparently duping SKs 🙃, while also scamming in the trade hall lmfao
oh no, who is it so I don't watch it? (just in case I'm joking, got banned from a discord once for sh!t like this)
also for context, I am against that. (dont ban me)
you had the chance to pull up a power move saying
"also for context, I support that (ban me no balls)"
so close to greatness 😥
bro sorc is so broken bro this shit dont make sense at all
Give fun new content and balance classes🇽
Give broken classes that make no sense and ruin 90% of other classes but they give us sashes ✅
best sdf can do is "balance" arena which is only open 3 days a week and most of the player base doesn't even play it anyway
I do
sure, but the most popular game mode is solos, not trios or arena
Can I get a loan of some SK please I have a gambling problem
so uhh people don't have friends?
anybody else's game crashing after every run?
sometimes happen, internet issues probably
doubt it but sure imma just re-install
uhhh you could verify files?
wnhere the fuck are the lifeleafs
Inferno
i know but i cant find any and all the map randomizing shit is making it so much worse
maybe use herbal sense with druid?
fuck ur right i forgot ab that
same
Anyone else really down bad for a patch
crash and crasher
no, Barb and Barber
desync and desyncer
can sm1 send me the the collectors guild discord?
hello, where can i send a player report???
also i need to provide video proof
when is wipe?
BARB AND BARB NEXT UPDATE: BARBARIANS NOW CAN CASTING SPELL AND USE BOW WEAPONS!
i am waiting for THE patch I wanna a patch quit big so Change the way we see the game. I hope they change key mechanics for the best.. not like patch 69 but somet hing like that yah knw
why do I feel like lagging when I play sorcerer? is it only me?
I'm surprised it isn't duos to be honest.
the next update barb can throw druid in bear form like a drum.
So sick of the current meta in the game. TM, hide rogue, and Druid are so unbearable rn. Along with the massive rat play style that’s taken over
arena should have duo thats for sure
tem BR ae pra jogar ?
Coming home from work. What changes did they make on new update?
why is spectral fabric so cheap rn????
economy crashed
not much, but check new perks for druid and ranger
I'm talking about today. It's been 2 weeks? Aren't they doing 2 week updates?
nah they aint
when is wipe?
if we knew economy would crash even more
if i knew i would have already sold every golden key bfr
When’s mobile release for iOS ?
btw guys at the end of wipe the gold chests get cheaper of more expensive?
(Sorry in advanced if it’s pinned somewhere I ant find it)
whichever smoothbrain dev thinks sorcerer is balanced needs shot
2-3 weeks , since they didnt announce anything my crazy guess its 4 week coz they went resting for a bit
season timer hasnt even starting ticking lmao
true and is the best running dealing damage class, you can have max mov speed while casting speals
i was a 170 hp no hide rogue, sorc hits me with one of the little fire missiles and a windblast and im half hp
he was running the 50% magical power perk?
nope, just all true
movement speed can go over 130, but it doesnt aply , so if you sorc with 145 or seomthing speed and use a book u still got 125 mov spped same aply for warlock, i think it not balanced
you mean 330?
and its crazy because if i show myself at all i just get lightning bolted through the wall
ye
sorc is so strong in solos
Bruh just saw this guy that looked super new to dark and darker in norms solo and so I was helping him out and a fighter comes out of nowhere calls us teaming scum and starts killing the new player :/ what is wrong with people. All I did was help this newb kill a centipede and heal him...
any1 else loosing minted gear in arena? just lost my longsword
Let him suffer as we have
lmao absolute trash updates since december, why do i keep coming back expecting anything different xD
have u ever tried arena to have a feel how sorc is strong
there is no warning for teaming in norm, only high roller cant team
<@&988703997378584596>
But back when i started i really appreciated talking and learning from other players in the dungeon. These types of interactions allow people to want to keep playing the game. Who wants a highroller sweat that has 1000+ hours running over timmys.
U gone pal
lmao dont say that word lil boy
bro i'm done with all those cringe kids anyway
godspeed wardens
what he say?
bad word beginning with the 14th letter of alphabet
Ima be real I’m indifferent on the topic. Getting teamed on against even two imbeciles sucks, but also that shouldn’t mean you can’t help out newer players. Deadass I’m right in the middle of both opinions 😂. I’m rarely indifferent on something, I guess ironmace could take steps to prevent malicious teaming in normals. Like no killing anyone together or something would be fine
I had to recite the alphabet to understand what you meant by that
lmao
I think that teaming to kill pve should be allowed that was how it was intended at the beginning of the game. pvp 100% should be bannable.
Ew no
nah because I feel like teaming against pve will always turn into teaming against players
Your games gonna die off unless you either sell it to another company that will actually love on it and listen to the people who play your game. Or wake up for once and release updates and fixes. Not back and forth updates and fixes. Actual fixes and updates, with new content, balancing and new additions. For the love of god give us this skill tree I’ve been looking at for 2+ years now
Just the last part, if anything just make separate queues for pve only.
for real
Continues dungeons is the best thing ever to be added to dark and darker
Dark and Darker was once my escape, a way to unwind and find some joy amidst the chaos of life. But then they introduced continuous dungeons, and everything started to fall apart. My marriage, already on shaky ground, crumbled as I became obsessed with trying to make sense of the new continuous dungeons system. My 3 ungrateful rotten shit kids will never understand the joy and happiness this game once gave me. Continuous dungeons has ruined my marriage, my relationship with friends and family.
that shit would be a snooze fest I understand adding a practice mode for like bosses or something but that would be so boring just farming AI

I would be nice to be able to farm the quest items in peace though just saying
You should probably quit
yeah that could be cool and it would actually be fun if they added like 10 man boss raids and shit like that
Honestly half of this game is pvp if you cant handle just quit
Yeah pvp is going nowhere fellas might as well embrace it and get better
pvp is the only fun in this game for me
maybe in the future they'll make a fleshed out campaign or solo dungeons with cooler ai/pve but if they just made pure pve dungeons with the way things are now it would be SO boring
I would just like to boss and kill a max of two or three teams everything is randomized so everyone is looking for the same rooms
go play in asia in the middle of the day, right when Xin Zhong is deep asleep
but that lag is so bad 😭
Then SA servers?
you can have players with no lag, or lag with no players pick your poison
That's what I am saying it would be so boring right now but imagine ultra nightmare mobs that have special attacks like a fucking ground slam. That could be cool
yeah or like bosses that summon waves of unique enemies and shit
Bruh I’ve been killed by frog with a echo as a pick axe smoke pot rouge in San Palo
I think separating would be good, then what you gather in pve dungeons you can bring into pvp. That way you don't have to risk just to find gear/make money (other than pve possibly killing you). The usual sweats will do what they always did and more casual players can remain out of pvp and choose if they wanna dable.
how did he caught you then Mr. Smokepot
I mine middle room ruins so I’m in a box
yeah and imagine having a 5 man boss raid having to work together or else you die
its a barb they basically have max ms esp with echos kit
ah mb thought echo was the spellbook idk why
https://youtu.be/W5N6DjaYkd4?t=846 in this vid
damn bro
im sorry frog is so cringe he'll run like 3 names then call ppl who run away shitters lmao
Time stamp 14 mins
fr
I can see him running 8 life after deaths and calling people shit for not being able to kill him
my bro has that rust streamer mindset
can anyone clarify what modules in inferno have blue portals? coming back to the game after more than a couple updates and keep getting hella lost
I think the worst part is he ruins them in San Palo with mmr farmers
yeah buddy runs a full bis fulgor kit and then he 1 taps someone and then he shit talks them and calls them "shitters" its so weird
Can't recall which rooms but they are all randomized now, I think the waiting room is one.
Is this loot guide still accurate? https://www.studioloot.com/dark-and-darker/articles/maximizing-loot-value-guide/
i just started any advice for a beginner. my charictor is a cleric.
he'll run named items and loot the entirety of someones full blue gear bc they ran its just cringe lmao
The room with 3 bats and an inverted pyramid... The new room with 3 bar doors falling and lifting constantly...
ye just having problems going in, understanding what rooms to even look for because it's impossible to clear all modules looking for exit :l
No
which part? the value of the trinkets are wrong?
That's tough, even if you knew where the exits are you sometimes have to clear up to 6 modules to get to them
if you want advice for cleric I would suggest watching SolarBear on youtube hes probably one of the best clerics that play the game right now
thanks for the advice
Np
Faithfulness, perseverance, and blunt are typically necessary I like Brew master as 4th and active smite and probably judgement
There’s also a skill that add pdr that or judgement
The rogue and how long they can go invis for is ruining this game. I personally know multiple people that have quit or that are going to because of that reason. my self included. its rediculous. NERF
u should meet a 185hp rogue then
The game isn’t finished they still release bug fixes balancing etc
The but they can consistently bring new content to the game..
Thank god there was a patch today warlock and Druid really needed to be nerfed
@glad thunder Rework bows. This is a dungeon crawling extraction looter. NOT and FPS. Bows are terrible to play against. They make the game boring. They are boring as hell to use/go against. They have fireball-esque damage with NO CAP ON THE AMOUNT and have a much faster projectile speed. On top of that, shotgun for when u get close to the RANGED class? That's not enough, give em backstep too? Just incase they ever have to engage in melee and the one-tap shotgun doesnt work....
it just makes no sense OTHER than if ur having issues attracting new players and you need to give them a crutch class that plays just like every other FPS. Its dumb and unfun. 1.8k hours and I'm just bored.. and im not the only one feeling like this.
Bows/ranger isn't the only issue obviously, but its the one i wanna complain about.
Start making decent changes or this game will never grow. It's already hard enough bringing people to this game.. why make it so much harder?
This i game is consistently loosing a player base.
That’s a good thing no? New content bug fixes balancing etc is that not what you want from the updates???
warlock got nerfed? how?
It’s consistent with last season towards end of wipe less players are in the game
bring back closing ring
ragebait
How is that rage bait? It was a joke
ragebait
how do I check ping in this game, I keep teleporitn every second
I hope they make a tutorial and pve mode so new players will stop uninstalling after realizing the game isn’t another ez pickup like rivals lol
Dude seriously it was a freakin joke now STOP
Clear as day rage bait
Hero shooters ain’t easy either (to be good at)
Ima disagree with that my friend and I got diamond in a week after downloading the game… especially rivals is a super ez game to pickup and be good
whats the point of melee in this turned out game when ranged is literally better in melee, genuinely. MS and resistances are mutually exclusive (if you think they aren't just try building hybrid. Proceed to jump for joy in amazement that not only are you slower than everyone that maxed move speed but you're also still getting one-shot by longbow and fireball) meaning ranged always has advantage. Why does Iron mace want me to play call of duty on barbarian with axes so I MIGHT be able to get a hit or two in, why is the best gameplay route for a fighter to use a bow all match then MAYBE use demons glee. Why is warlock allowed to teleport a melee weapon into his hand after kiting with a ranged weapon that might as well not have a MS penalty. Why does a rouge fail at the only thing it should be good at then kill me with half assed kiting stacking bleed from throwables that don't self slow (and even if they do, who gives a !@#$ when bhopping and hotswapping remove any of the windows for melee engagement). WHY CAN SPELLS/BOWS BE FIRED WHILE BHOPPING? this games gets boring the second you learn whats effective, transforming from a dungeon crawler where anything can happen, to a fps where the only winning strat is to get advantage at range then slowly and safely close in, never committing to an engagement until its free. Honestly it feels like sdf designed melee for pve and ranged for pvp, boring stuff sadly. On a side note give warlock back his kriss dagger, only viable melee class and they remove it from the game, good stuff Iron mace
yeah, and the reason being is because they do stuff like that. happens to many times and they wont have people returning to the game. which would be very unfortunate because this game is great.
No patch 😭😭😭😭

this game is so dead. wth are yall doing
playing arenas
Why tf we do we need mobs in arena? I love warlock getting a free win on 1st & last rounds
Fr it’s arena it’s supposed to be straight PvP yet they put mobs
Skills translate, I guarantee you he’s played OW or minimum at least another shooter. Or some sort of MOBA. Positioning and accuracy are things in a bunch of games, they add up over time. Give your boy some credit
All i gotta say is, nerf the damn druid and nerf the rogue because this shit is getting old.
yeah but there is skill based match making so new players are not just getting stomped and casual matches which are just people fuckin around
but if your dream still lives if that castle still gleams just as brightly in your eyes then it is your obligation to lay the stones that surround you LET US BEGIN THE CHANT OF OFFERING
95k / 3SK for 1 small coin chest REALLY ?
i still legit cannot believe that they buffed panther. Just got 3 shot as 175hp barb and he takes 0 fucking dmg
You do realize they know that, but they’re going to buff them next patch anyways because fuck it 😂
Well yeah we’ve played ow but that’s not my point. My point is that it takes WAY less skill to master a character in rivals than in DaD like WAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY LESS
1chest for 3sk economy is based on illegal stuff..
Rivals is a very easy game to pick up and so is ow
I wouldn’t hate light SBMM in DaD, but it’s been tried before and the game def did play worse. Plus the game is already not thriving as is, it would be unfortunate to add even more queues
i swear if they do that, my entire discord of people that play this game will delete it.
I wasn't saying it should be added I was just saying why marvels is better for new players
If we’re doing nerfs… nerf Druid rogue sorc warlock ranger and fighter
QA answers when?
only thing about rouge that needs a nerf is maybe cut throat
Half the classes are broken and some more than others yall can’t act like it’s 1 or 2 classes cmon now
I highly disagree. DaD boils down to slight cooldown management and stat checking someone, maybe some spacing involved. Hero shooters have positioning, spacing, teamwork, cooldown management, objectives. Hero shooters are so much more to manage on a higher level because it boils down to more than pressing phantomize if you’re in trouble
fighter is the only one that can even remotely go toe to toe with a barb. but the other nerfs i completely agree with.
if half the classes are broken then the game would be pretty balanced now would it
I don’t think that’s how that works
not true lol
yes I mean if every class could 1 tap each other then it would be pretty balanced
Well I can def agree with that for sure
druid warlock fighter ranger wizard sorc are all pretty dam strong warlock imo might be the most game breaking character
maybe if youre a seat which most people are not?
Well just agree to disagree than bc my irl friends and I picked it up very quickly same with ow they are just easy games for us I guess
yeah no if you are good at rouge or druid or warlock or ranger or sorc or wizard you can kill a barb
any class can kill a barb
if youre an absolute sweat yeah sure, which most people are not
I think hero shooters are like ADHD skill and DaD is like fortitude skill
dark and darker is more difficult than fuckin ow or marvel rivals this take is dumb
any class can use ranged weapons to kite, doesnt mean the dungeon crawler is better for it
I have adhd so maybe that makes sense lol
I don't really think thats true I mean after I learned how to space and dodge I started killing artifacts and shit so clearly its a much bigger impact then maybe
On a high level? Not at all, I’ve played at a high level in both games. OW is much harder
but then again I main spacing weapons like zwei and such
I'm not gonna lie, I'd take patch 69 at the start of wipe WITH some balance changes to the big things (one tap ranger in squire gear.)
Reasons:
-That was the only time I could consistently get new people to play the game.
-Fights were so much more engaging and people weren't scared to play
-Fights were longer which is SO much more fun than being 2 tapped (excluding barb and ranger fuggery)
-The gameplay loop allowed for new players to learn and enjoy both PVE and PVP at a more rapid rate, letting them feel competitive much more quickly. this aids in retention.
of course gear would need to be reworked to add value as well as mobs to an extent. But everall, this would bring ppl in and keep them for a while. This game has US... the core playerbase who likes things how they are because we are so used to it.. but its obvious there needs to be a change. As us core players leave and take on new games or whatever, there is no one taking up those new spots.
SDF dont let the boat sink bro. You JUST won ur court case (excluding the 5.7mil fine)
Ow was such a good game until the cancer than top 500 became impossible
get good lmao
Nothing but cancer meta or you lose every game
the only game in that genre i see that is genuinely difficult is r6 and everything else is much easier on the highest level
My brother ✊🏽, on a side note, you’re the teammate I ask for on those types of games. I don’t need a pro player, just someone who has some brain cells and can pick up the game relatively well. Swear in hero shooters you get some reptilians as teammates 😂😂😭
Bro even on the LFG it’s BADDDDDD
Man I swear I’m in ELO hell 😭😭
thats not the point. the point is, is the player base. not everyone can spend hours playing the game. the nerfs need to happen or the game is going byebye.
I stopped playing a while ago bc of all that but man that game was fun
maybe we have big egos but like im sure most people agree that like 60% or more of the players i play with are so fuckin bad at whatever game im playing
any class can kill any class if u cant then ur just skill gapped dont blame the game
That definitely is a show of skill, I’m not arguing that dark and darker takes no skill- just less skill than OW. Think about how many factors go into winning an OW game vs winning a fight in DaD
At the highest level of play? As a high level dark and darker player... it's just game knowledge and meta abuse. This game is not hard, it just takes a second to get used to.
rivals, ow, league, dota, r6 - any other moba takes way more skill and coordination at the top level.
idk what u did with ur take, but it sure aint cook
resource management alone is a skill in those games that you dont really need to have in DaD
dark and darker is more difficult than ow and rivals and ive never played league or dota but i have thousands of hours in r6 and its the most difficult muiltplayer game out there
what should i sell and what should i not sell?
I think he’d have more of an argument if DaD was more of an ideal game. The abilities innately aren’t skillful- like phantomize. If a fight in DaD didn’t boil down to who can kite better/one shot first, I’d be more open to it being skillfully compared to other games. I just don’t think the gameplay loop has enough skill in it
yeah I would probably say so simply because there are more things to think about in a hero shooter also there is no such thing as gear diff in a hero shooter
like i can see ow2 being pretty difficult in high level play but marvel rivals is pretty brainrot
like literally all marvel rivals comes down to is who has the sweatiest healers and nothing else like lets be fr
Ngl you might be cooking on the marvels thing, games meta is less healthy than OW
hero shooters are baby games
Marvels is still fun I just can’t take it too seriously
dark and darker is a real mans game very high testosterone battles in dark and darker
watch, if the rogue, warlock, druid dont get nerfed. this game wont be around that long. regardless the game is fun (most of the time) for some people. im not saying its not a great game. just improvements need to be made. but hey, i finally made warlords so thats cool. lmao
I think the most fun conbat I’ve had in this game is wizard v wizard or fighter v fighter. Fighting shield vs shield is soooooo fun. It actually feels like a skillful exchange is happening. If they could tap more into that feeling, it would be good
@icy swan ur entitled to ur oppinon. Coming from top rank (or close to) in most mobas since theyre my game of choice..
dark and darker is a walk in the park.
movement is slow so its easy to hit shots
abilities are basic so i dont need to know 1000 things about one class (loooking at you league)
options are limited so i dont need to think much
less teammates to be wary of
less Ults to be scared of
less cd's to track
no rotations to worry about
no true resource management needed (pots and bandies dont count. closest thing is sorc with it's cd's)
stats are easy to understand
pve is simple once u get the patterns down (coming from souls-like this was easy af)
overall this game isnt fast paced so u can think
%100 agree
not entirely like a good rouge usually dies to a okay barb player but yeah usually
I’ve bumped into Blinn a few times- a great content creator. Probably the most fun I’ve had fighting a YTer, bro is a chad (he uses the shield exclusively)
yall can disagree with this but my biggest issue with dark and darker is if you dont have a cleric or druid healing you on your team and u fight another team of equal skill with a druid or cleric you will lose like 100% of the time because they have a collective healthpool of like fuckin 3000
how does it work that if i craft already crafted item it is not crafted by me?
im going to watch him and hopefully pick up a few pointers so i can keep up with the chads lol
Rivals does feel like a watered down version of ow and instead of skillful play it’s just farm ult and press q
agreed. an extraction looter should not have any "oh u just lose cuz of this" bullshit
if all pvp? sure. but loot is attached to time-spent. Spending time to get a 10k kit to the lose it to a buffball that rushed you and u have nothing u can do... its bad gameplay overall
It’s worth it, just the other day he taught me something new and I have 5k hours. Admittedly I was bad at fighting skele champ but let’s not talk about that part
5k hours n bad LOlp
his name is blinn?
no not really if you have a warlock with boc on your team then the healer is useless or a wizard with fire mastery
Yes recently he’s been posting legacy tho
twitch?
legacy will take away alot of this game's players if they dont do something
I think he just streams on YT
ohh thats why i couldnt find him
yeah there definitely is good counters to druid and cleric but like not having one on your team feels like a huge disadvantage
ngl my favorite 1v1s are longsword 1v1s
Anyone know when wipe is?
2 guys holding block and waiting isnt very interesting
Tbf if there is a class that is op at the time you should play it. It’s fun you don’t have to play the same class every day
3 to 4 weeks if no delays
im not a longsword fighter, decided to start practing with it. i almost got shit on by a skelly
yeah just so you know right now the hitboxes are super buggy so its probably not the greatest time to be trying to learn it
it took me about 500 hours of pvp with longsword to be consistent with parries
monthly patches lel
took me 300 I think
I’d like it more if most longsword users didn’t have a paralyzing fear to be the first one to swing. Little secret: getting parried in a longsword duel is good. If you swing first, expect a parry, go to guard stance, parry their parry, they are dead
I know I have been using longsword for probably like 600 hours maybe 700 now
https://www.youtube.com/@YourBoyBlinn if anyone needs tips on blocking. just started watching this video
its just you lose the dps trade against almost every single weapon in the game unless you have a full bis kit
A chad in his natural habitat ✊🏽
lmao
sadly there are few of my kind left I have not seen a single longsword fighter in arena for atleast 1 month
When I was playing more often I was using void blade a good bit if that counts 😂. Still there were moments that made me wanna pull out the glee 😂
u cant even "karma punish" team killers anymore wth is this LOL
yeah I use void blade as well it def counts but last wipe everyone in arena used to be longsword giga chads legit the most fun I had in the game in so long but then dglee became meta and now no single human being uses the longsword
i hate you lol
why do i constantly get disconnected and have to restart my game? Never was this bad before.
same thing was happening to me. re download
Damn okay, so annoying.
2.5k rating solo and playing against warlord premade system abusers on arena. Great f development IM, clap clap
Or just hit 1 parry and you win
not against half the weapons in the game plus you can legit just stick your head inside of me and I can't parry anymore
if you lose against a longsword fighter its almost always because you suck or they are better but yes I do agree that the damage is way to much on the parry
the arena TDM mindset is what is killing the game
hate me all u want, its the truth. I knew game was cooked when SDF said he doesnt like the random modules idea but it actually semi saved the game
longsword fighter players #1 copers lmao
Why is this community so toxic lol?

"(Copy and type a thing here you wish to change in dark and darker can be anything class balance new mode etc)"
Cause they want to be like their fav devs
least obvious rage bait I mean I insist if longsword is so busted why don't you go use it and get free kills
"everybody should just use longsword"
our head dev's mindset is only about adjusting numbers and catering to TDM instead of focusing on the unique aspect of what made the game special and notable in the first place, the dungeon extraction crawling
and thats why DnD will die
not at all what I am saying
Dunno
I am saying if its so broken why don't you specifically go use it and see
honestly the shit I hear in voice in game is ridiculous what happened to people saying good fight and good sportsmanship all I see is shit talkers and teamers
holy crap sbf is typing
ngl longsword is the only melee weapon has skill expression
i have used it. its just not a balanced weapon and the players who use it are always lying about it so such an insane degree lol
nah I don't think so it might have the most but sword shield fighter and zwei hander barb are also skillful
I never once said it was balanced god damn stop straw manning bruh
can noone else find a game?
#the-tavern discussion is lit rn
all I am saying it requires skill to use although I agree it does way to much damage and needs a nerf but the hitboxes need a fix aswell
hehe TECHNICALLY 🤓 i didnt explicity use the word balanced but i implied over and over it was and defended it hehe
I literally said the weapon did to much damage what is this bland ahh rage bait
praying the lawsuit forces IM to sell
nah don't wish that bro then nexon will buy it and spam buff barb and druid until the game dies
Is that not what IM is literally doing rn? or is that the joke
that is absolutely the joke
you decide to play solo dark and darker
you immediately run into 27 landmine rogues
I did 1700dmg and lost to a warlock who did 500 and had 2200 healing in arena cause mobs
literally could not be worse
figuratively. It could be worse, let the man cook
Arena matching 3 rangers vs 2 fighters with pavise and rogue in closed layout. Brainrot development
You truly don't know what is going on right now. SDF will soon tell you what is happening with qna
hows the flavor of the week balance going
mabye next week it will be a whoops all bard
Cap or na
anyone not able to connect to servers?
nah someone literally named SBF not SDF was typing
not "will".Has.
Game is pretty low on pop rn and its on the down.
Unless their new monthly update schedule comes with consistent massive content drop, itll never recover
Unironically Nexon has played the game more than the devs 😂
even then the remaining playerbase just gets better and better
probably
eventully we wont allow new players to survive even taking a break i feel like i cant play anymore lol cant really gain population when we are activly hostile to new players and 90%of us play the meta
back when dark and darker had in game teaming was unironically better even if toxic at times
It’s like if I worked at dominos, learned the recipe- then started my own food establishment. Then I don’t eat my own pizza and don’t inform customers about anything. I wouldn’t eat anything the dude literally making the pizzas wouldn’t eat. Why would I play a game the devs don’t even play. A rough example but still 😂
game servers crashed?
Druid needs a nerf by just not allowing rat form to go through doors
what should i price my coin chest at
you gotta have autsim to play this fucking garbage
where do i download autsim?
Even then you still need time lol
11 doll hairs
servers down?
I hate druid.. I hate that class, it's so unfun to fight. Rat needs to go.
Seriously. the riposte longsword is such an annoying gamble mechanic. You hit a guy 7 times in the leg. but the one time he gets it of you're dead...
YAAAAAY i dodged 12 arrows from a ranger, WOn this fight.. THHIIIRDDD PARTYYYYYYY
I swear they just need to make it you get a heal bubble or something. Continue dungeon SUCKS ASS
Heal bubble? Lmaooooo
And theyll sit here and tell you its a bad weapon/doesnt work
Its been 2 months since I got red name for killing 1 guy with a spell, when will it be removed?
anyone else getting consistent disconnects?
can someone tell me where to extract in hell? i cant seem to find a single escape and keep dying alot
you have to look around a lot, its like minesweeper @violet fog
blue portals, randomly generated
tiles are random, just gotta learn em and clear quickly, try to find blues before u totally clear a tile
can you que again as 2 same classes in hr? i just spectated 2 rogues in the same team
Damn can they be everywhere?
i mean theyre random
do we know which tiles have an escape or is it totally random
crystal ball bonk when
there’s specific modules with portals but their locations are random
you need like 5 or 10 downvotes to get red, not just 1.. something like that
can you tell me the names of the tiles maybe?
Blood columns
Blood Platforms
Blood River
Demon Mouth
there's others but I can't think of all the names
thx ill try to find the rest then, will be funny 😭
i think bat roost has portals too
on a new character? I did leave early a lot
You need some good karma reports. Just queue trios, give out your loot or something, then ask for a thumbs up
hey druid mains how do yall feel knowing the more you play that class the more the game dies?
yeah, it only comes back after wipe or if ppl vote you up
Game is not dying because of druid, emotional comment😭
its one of the reasons tbh they keep buffing an already aids class
you must not be paying attention
no update, uh oh why let the warlock meta rot your game?
anyone got clips of nipalan updated knockback?
didnt it only get a damge buff?
Definitely a miniscule reason. Majority have left/taken a break because the market crashed, they already hit demigod, and end of wipe is getting pretty close
ive heard from a yt video with some clips that it has a much bigger knockback but its hard to see in his vid besides people getting flung up
end of wipe is over a month away
6 more months of this wipe i reckon
I mean. Yea its probably not as good as some gimmicky rapier crystalball or dagger abuse build. But being able to just stand there and get like 6-7 attempts to do a oneshot kill is insanely oppresive to other melee classes. And if they run a jitter script you are like 60% certain to hit it 😄
how do you consume darkness shards as a demon? i saw a video where he said he had +10 all
i hardly ever crash and ive crashed 6 times in the past hourish, anyone know why?
where did ppl see a post saying there would be names allowed in arena at end?
hope not
going demon form uses the shard auto
it still shows 5 stacks though while in demon form
you get +5 from shards and demon says you get +5 for each shard
idk i tested it, my stats didn't increase after going demon, and it still showed 5 stacks
Hey guys do you know what I can change in my settings im constantly lagging on the floors and shit
dont know what to tell you bud
whats the point of melee in this turned out game when ranged is literally better in melee, genuinely. MS and resistances are mutually exclusive (if you think they aren't just try building hybrid. Proceed to jump for joy in amazement that not only are you slower than everyone that maxed move speed but you're also still getting one-shot by longbow and fireball) meaning ranged always has advantage. Why does Iron mace want me to play call of duty on barbarian with axes so I MIGHT be able to get a hit or two in, why is the best gameplay route for a fighter to use a bow all match then MAYBE use demons glee. Why is warlock allowed to teleport a melee weapon into his hand after kiting with a ranged weapon that might as well not have a MS penalty. Why does a rouge fail at the only thing it should be good at then kill me with half assed kiting stacking bleed from throwables that don't self slow (and even if they do, who gives a !@#$ when bhopping and hotswapping remove any of the windows for melee engagement). WHY CAN SPELLS/BOWS BE FIRED WHILE BHOPPING? this games gets boring the second you learn whats effective, transforming from a dungeon crawler where anything can happen, to a fps where the only winning strat is to get advantage at range then slowly and safely close in, never committing to an engagement until its free. Honestly it feels like sdf designed melee for pve and ranged for pvp, boring stuff sadly. On a side note give warlock back his kriss dagger, only viable melee class and they remove it from the game, good stuff Iron mace
Do you lose Arena gear if it is bought from the market?
wow thanks for the reply real helpful
np
cause they don't care. obviously.
anybodys game crash
another weekend without update, great
Is there an easier way to get lifeleaf for quest than in the inferno?
Giant Worms have 10% drop rate
so are the devs gonna fix healer druid sitting in spawn
When patch??
no time soon
man i got the game a few days ago and loving it, but lately ive been getting killed by teams of 2 in solos... people teaming up in solo matches is dumb af and makes me not wanna play the fking game...
patch coming SOON aka NEXT WEEK
You see a druid from across the room, he casts tree of life and summons a mob to help him, panther form chicken form into bear form hits you for half your health but you get a headshot and he loses 1/3 of his. panther form chicken form* into rat form through the doorway instant resets with multiple healing spells, summons groot to block the doorway from third party, rat forms back through the door after healing in 2 seconds and the panther chicken into bear form finished you before you can even get a surg kit off.... but sdf's vision right?
its why they need to have trio only
anyone got a demonlock craftable arena kit??
remove recklessly attacking...
bro rouges man stupid class
anyone able to help with boss quests?
Ah, another beautiful day of bear grylls wild animal attack simulator. I load up the game and put on my 50k warlock kit thinking "Surely after this much grinding, I must be able to win some fights with my gear right?" I find some teammates in lfg and load into the game. We're clearing skeletons and zombies when suddenly, one of my teammates calls out, "CHICKEN!!!!!". My entire body freezes in fear. I take off my shirt and start to run away, but it does not matter, the panther has already smelled his prey and is leaping through the air towards me. I press Q in a panic, but I am silenced, removing any counterplay I may have had. As I pull out my sword, I am already dead, my 50k kit gone to feed the chinese dinner.
😭🙏🕊
servers are bad especially rn for anybody else?
i cant even join to the game
it just says connecting 😭
what's the best class for solo pve clearing
BARB AND BARBER NEWS: In next update barb can transform in druid animal's, and cast spell's... Arena nows can use 3 same classes
i think warlock?
not wizard?
I mean sitting on some unreachable place and just shitting magic missiles on the mobs seems pretty fast
idk man i just like the phantomize, lifesteal and longsword parry
absolute cancer gameplay in pvp
but besides that I don't think warlock can match wizard in damage output for fast pve clearing
Trio only = game dies
L take man, druid obviously bad he really needed that buff literally unplayable class
cancer is barbarian class, look the arena, only barbarians in this trash abandonned game
cap the game is designed for trios and they cant sustain this amount of queues financially , so help them out and learn how to play with others
who tf plays arena
🤓
druid is so broken what big brain at ironhammer thought they needed to buff the animal class that doesnt have a headshot hitbox
trio only and remove the numbers on gear and make them ability's instead . Unique to each main hand and off hand weapon. So a green kriss dagger as a unique ability. A blue one gets the one the green version gets and a new one for being blue. Then its less numbers and easier to balance.
Or you could keep the current system just make it so gear only deals extra damage or gives extra protection against AI. that way the game would be much easier for them to make fair. And you dont get the bs that is going on now. As well this would reduce the queue times since everyone could play in one bracket
I think Iron Mace should sell Dark and Darker to a serious company that can listen to the players and deliver a decent game.
if a company wanted to do this game they can just buy it off the unreal asset store bro
is the game down rn?
I am playing right now :D
That's the point, Dark and Darker has proven to be a good game model (despite the terrible decisions made by the game's administrative team). What’s literally missing is a company with a large team willing to constantly update the game and take over. If the game were completely bad, no one would play it or copy its model, like many copycat games out there.
cant connect to servers
Sell the game to some other big company.
this game is so good it's addicting
there is another option to do the 3rd phase of the wyvern if i dont have a good spot of ice bolts
i tried shift+control and shield up but that doesnt work i think
no one likes random moduels
buff chicken

copypastas and spam go in tavern
at least you have people on your server bro, in sa is just empty dungeons
do the devs not care about the game
we dont know, they dont say anything about the current state in nowhere
might be a dumb question but...in Arena If i use lets say an item found by my fighter and use it on my mage (speelplunder) am i gonna lose it?
yes, must be on the same character youre playing with
so 3 sorc abilities can kill someone and he didnt aim any of them when is this fixed?
sorc reminds me of the one shot barb
SORC NEEDS A NERF arenas is plagued with sorcs not aiming shit spamming abilities its killing me mud shield in front cant do anything against it as a ranger
wind blast shouldnt do damage the lightnig chain needs to be the same as ray of darkness no reason they dont have to aim that the fire blast that comes from the ground that insta kills needs to be nerfed by 60 percent
what server have more ppl? i cant find players on us east
Nobody is playing thats why, take a break until patch
take a perma break duh.
Apex needs a nerf
Lol just loaded in a match dead to a mob fire gameplay
why does sorc get so much utility and knockback stuff that also can nearly one shot you with each one
these jokes of devs cant even release an update after the game is in shambles
which merchants give cosmetics this time
let them cook
roblox developers are better than these duuummmb mother f'rs. 6 million I hope they loose their company office and all of their personal belongings
anyone willling to play with me?
yo is it possible to load 2 warlocks onto the same team or is it blatant cheats?
which emote is the religion reward? is it a new one?
Oh jeez this is not a happy place
Imagine winning a court case, coming off of vacation, "rested and relaxed" and you don't update your work. Fucking crazy. No balancing, no updating of the map pool for arena (which is stupid fucking needed btw), etc. BROTHER this is why people are quitting left and right. Why can't they see this?
Lame ur gross
You say that’s an issue but running into a trio all running some form of bows is also just hell
at least they have to aim and lead shots sorc has a mud shield which makes it impossible to hit him whilst hes still spamming u lmfao
My grandmother could update this game better than these hamster ball devs LOl
love that poeple can run 2 warlocks in highroller trios
I love this game, played for years but man is it dying at a fast pace at the moment. They might figure it out but with so many classes needing literal complete rework im not sure. PVP compostion has been ruined LOL
update when though, and why are servers laggy as fudge
they should fr allow us to refund this game, cuz its not even playable anymore
Ive had 4 gear sets disappear out of my stash, anybody else have this problem?
They to greedy for that bro, SDF and graysun tugging each other on the coast of africa right now probably.
yeah i cant wait for more ranger buffs and a cleric buff that will be reverted in another hotfix
why cant i login to my blacksmith launcher and if i try to reset password the website is not working
i just got a message saying "something has gone wrong with the lobby by an unknown force, returning you to the lobby" that was weird
The game is literally falling into itself from every angle LOL
fck all druids players...
coming back to this game after 4 months hiatus, is it any good still and what is this screen where i have to choose whether i permanently want to play on steam or blacksmith?
game good. pick blacksmith
Don't lie to this person, the game is literal garbage right now.
i can activate v-sync in this game?
Hi, I am new and I have the feeling that there is no big difference between the worst (grey) gear and the best (epic/legendary) gear. 3 to 4 more weapon damage sounds weirdly low to me. Also I find the diversity of items relative low (only hand full of bows). I thought more diverse items with unique effects and skills would be cool.
Maybe I am too much thinking of an classic mmorpg or what do you think?
is blacksmith down? keepslogging me out the game and now is saying my payment authentication status failed??
A lot of weeks without patch.... looks strange
Games fine lol

i cant even log into my blacksmith account and if i try to reset password the website doesnt work for me so i tried steam and i need a code from the blacksmith game which i cant even log into lmao what is this game
there is a very big difference haha. its not only the dmg but the amount of perks you get with higher tear gear
i can activate v-sync in this game?
Tf is v sync
tf?
Obviously you don’t understand how things scale in the game.. gear diff is insane in HR
As much as I love this game seeing the economy crash has made me lose all motivation to play it
Hmm ok.
What do you mean? Is it that I have the feeling you can buy essentially one of the best bow for some thousand gold that you farmed within some hours, what also was underwhelming for me
I don't want to bother with too many questions, but does anyone know what type of weapons I should be using for a class are? Trying to try out Wizard, and he starts with a staff, and a spell book. Which should I be using, or both?
what is tf?
'the fuck'
rondel crystal ball
Having a melee and a magic implement
Hell yeah, sounds interesting. Yeah I found it weird that the starter set is staff and a spellbook.
you can try staff build too, search on youtube but you need gear or else is realy hard to kill hih hp c
Oh. Quick thing too, how does Arena work? Why is it only open for a few days?
They both serve the same purpose of enhancing spells
Ah okay, appreciate it!
dad on ssd is so much better*?
is there any way that i can play streched res without it messing up my loot menu?
load into arena with squire gear
Yeah I understand
The weapon damage numbers dont go up as high because its the attribute modifiers that make the most difference
But another thing is that I feel there is not that much gear grinding because you can buy the best gear in the market with not that much gold
Yeah 20% more damage is notable but all the magic effects from increased rarity contribute more
10% more damage and 10% less damage taken isn't 10% stronger, it's closer to 20%.
In a fight, someone with bis could take on a whole lobby of other players, assuming that it's not barb (they can just ignore armor), druid is up there too, they are much stronger than they should be at lower gear ranges.
Can you get redstone shards without purchase, or no?
is there any way that i can play streched res without it messing up my loot menu?
day 1: petition to let us see hitboxes of weapons and players
You can find hitboxes of weapons on wiki
but they aren't confirmed by ironmace, it would make a huge difference to see real hitboxes ingame for longsword parrying
Ranger --> Perks --> Quickfire (increase action speed by 50% when using bowtype weapons) does this work for crossbow lol ?
is there any way that i can play streched res without it messing up my loot menu?
Only for bows
bard feelin kinda useless in trios lately
Grab your friend and test it with him
is there any way that i can play streched res without it messing up my loot menu?
I bet with druid, warlock, sorc and MS agi barb meta atm
sure i could, but i also know that ironmace is gonna take 5 years to fix animations/hitreg/hitboxes/server tick rate so having hitboxes would save me weeks of testing and i wouldn't have to remember every BS hitbox spot
playing this game feelin kinda useless lately
Please can you try to avoid spam
If someone knew, they would help you.
atleast with visible hitboxes, i can be 100% sure it's not desync or my fault for missing a parry
shut it
Tell the devs to fix this POS game and stop correcting people
is there any way that i can play streched res without it messing up my loot menu?
yeah, i get out-ranged, out-tanked, out-damaged and my buffs aren't significant to be actually impactful in a fight. maybe if allegro and accelerando lasted longer again, but then bard would just add to the power of other classes, really
is there any way that i can play streched res without it messing up my loot menu?
Unfortunately, my job is to moderate the chat and nothing more.
You accepted to MOD for this garbage ass team LOL you must have alot of free time
is there any way that i can play streched res without it messing up my loot menu?
im rarely on the mod's side, but you really seem to have a stick up your ass for someone who showed you 100% respect so far
leave the discord if you hate the game, dont be a weirdo.

sorry i have no respect for curse mastery warlock, which is what you must be if you play warlock, but good story
Rework rogue, spread the word
Bruh calm tf down good LORD
invis def needs to be removed
spawning in the middle of maps has to go, getting sick if spawning in hell in a room full of aggro
literally just spawned in a room i could not even get out of with a thanos already swinging at me.
It's a hard topic. Rogue without invis is nothing as is it so it definitely needs rework if they were to "fix" landmine. Even if they buffed other parts of rogue and removed hide it would have no personality so they need to either remove or change hide then give rogue another personality.
nah just remove it till you can fix it rogue rn is fine
Damn this guy is just in here always complaining and getting upset lmao
devs dont care about the game anymore ggs in the chat
whats the best way to go about selling bis legendary/uniques?
there should be a class specializing in traps
Ranger is sorta that, you can be a psychotic rat and just make a very specific persons day a nightmare.
yeah ranger has traps, but i mean something like being able to reset the log traps on forgotten or trapping chests and doorways
If they do allow unqiues in arena they should add nightmare mobs
yeah, and another one, something like inactive from the start traps could be added, which ranger could then activate.
As of right now traps exist, but are otherwise pretty avoidable.
wabbajack
I can confirm this is indeed true 👍
Get a life
Dark and Darker used to be my escape, my one refuge from the crushing weight of reality, but now... now it feels like even that has been taken from me. The developers, in their infinite wisdom—or utter incompetence—have gutted everything that made it special. Every update drags it further into the abyss, a twisted mockery of what it once was. The combat feels sluggish, the balance is nonexistent, and greed has replaced passion. It’s like watching something you love wither and die in real time, knowing there’s nothing you can do to stop it. I used to log in and feel alive. Now, I just stare at the screen, wondering why I even bother. Maybe it’s not just the game that’s broken—maybe it’s me.

peg me baby im dead inside
huh brother u act like making a game is easy and the answer to solving a problem is always easy

Hey, i'm a new player ^^' can someone teach me ? :3
is the wendigo entrails in HR only?? i havent found one in norms
Out of curiosity how much are you guys losing on a loss in Arenas?
Hi! We have lfg channels where you can find comrades
#lfg-europe and other channels
shield hitboxes need a revisit. They have for a while, blocking in melee is actually pointless 80% of the time due to the desync
nerf sorc
award for the most dramatic chatter of the evening goes to!
literally just remove insta-casts. Sorc and Druid both. It's 100% pickrate perk for a reason, its a bit too good
its not even the insta cast, its the fact that they do half my health with 1 spell on any class
guys sorry i ask , but when i launch the game i stay stuck in the loading screen there any way to fix it?
nerf new inferno modules or add more exits
Do you find them here in lfg channels?
I got killed by them
You can report it on #discord-help
whats so comedy to me is all the players complaining about the absurd amount of broken things in this game thinking anything will be fixed. The game will only devolve and get worse, the major issues will not be fixed, and any player who is hoping their complaints are seen or that the devs are working on major issues just hasnt played this game long enough. Realize its only downhill lol
Would anyone be able to help me find the dark magic library?
I can help
Stop being so dramatic. Grow up, you cornball.
I can help u dude
theres nothing dramatic ab reality bud haha
Okay! Down for anyone to join tbh :) Game chat cool?
I don’t have a mock

Yes that
Yeah that's no prob. Whats your character name? I'll inv

yupppp it works now im back with kit at menu
it wont do it at first, but after a bit it will when the round would be over via time limit itll push you back to the lobby
I have voip on, but I cant hear others ONLY in the lobby. 😭 Whats goin on bro
ur right, phew
You'll need to send one of them a DM
Oh ok
As you can imagine they get alot of pings, no problem
How do I dm them
Right click one of their names on the right and hit message
Yo , does anyone know if it's possible to get artifact item with the goblin ?
I think u can from the piles
I'm talking about cinder , stuff like that , to get them from goblin gambler marchand
Oh I don’t think you can
where do i go to report bugs?
thanks
Hey @glad thunder
Maybe stop "balancing" your game based on Trio comps
Crazy watching solo queues being dominated by million+ agi druids and 1 shot sorcs
Probably unpopular opinion - Maybe get your shttt together.
No problem
Ah, another beautiful day of bear grylls wild animal attack simulator. I load up the game and put on my 50k warlock kit thinking "Surely after this much grinding, I must be able to win some fights with my gear right?" I find some teammates in lfg and load into the game. We're clearing skeletons and zombies when suddenly, one of my teammates calls out, "CHICKEN!!!!!". My entire body freezes in fear. I take off my shirt and start to run away, but it does not matter, the panther has already smelled his prey and is leaping through the air towards me. I press Q in a panic, but I am silenced, removing any counterplay I may have had. As I pull out my sword, I am already dead, my 50k kit gone to feed the chinese dinner.
can i wype my account myself? and start fresh? quests included?
do the devs just wanna ignore the druid problem or what?
Can you b hop forward while swinging a rondel? like before your first swing you start hopping
thats the most cancerous thing ive ever heard
where is the patch
well today, u only need 5k to kill 100k so idk
whats the druid problem? i was gonna ask about something to do w druid. wondering if its related
hey guys im curious about the sashes.. do they represent some type of RP or something?
These reasons
Druid: self heal, gap close, disengage, rat form escape, treent summon, 2d cat form that attacks twice per second, 1 tap bear form, can dodge attacks by changing into chicken or rat, dreamwalk without having to press a button, jump through door escape, can use spear to hit from a distance, can make a BIS 224 kit cause they dont need weapons......yeah balanced
ok so basically what i thought.....they be slapping my fighter pdr in no time. sucks
nope I think its just for teams
dog has anyone gotten wendigo entrails in sub 24 Ive been grinding for like 2 days and cant get it
Okay, if mid match spawning is going to have to be a thing, maybe dont have it spawn me aproximately a 5 second walk from another player
yes
Just got my third frostweaver and none had the pants 🙂
Any tips on finding dark magic library? I CANNOT find it
genuinely just hope
just run around and pray. Either play barb crush or druid and jump through doors
warlocks good too cause you can heal and just hellfire the doors and do it easily
Yeah I made a druid specifically for rat and healing lmao I'm getting desperate
that is true I forgot about him
i feel like bard and warlock just do pve best
or rat through door and you dont need to worry abut PVE
yeah that too but warlock can just heal off mobs and hellfire to go through doors and bard just shreds mob hp
If y’all get too mad at Dark and Darker or just need a break, I’ve been watching Dimo playing Midnight Zombies. Want more players there and hope both games do good. We need more dark and darker varieties, such a fun concept
true with shriek
remove double classes from arena. its just dumb that u allow it. its easy to manipulate when u get high up in rating
Dead ass game, another 2 weeks w/o patch, season of content
whats the wipe?
@zinc sparrow @glad thunder do better we want an update to many cheater learn to make and run a game
does cleric blunt weapon mastery apply to quarterstaff?
whyn is a wipe happening?
WIPE & fix ECOnomy
1 coin CHEST for 3 SK for juste 10k gold space/ 92k really OMG, economy is based by cheater like every games
what's the problem?
why do i sometimes not get my kit back from goblin merchant when i die and no one looted me
Does anyone have any advice for fighter perks?
Can you report in lobby anyone?
that too expensive for a small chest
How much could i get out of a unique flanged mace with: action speed, magic healing, max health bonus, add weapon damage and add memory capacity?
50 cents
yay
45 after tax
uninstalling untill they rename bug shell to bug carapace
not sure where to ask but is losing gear in arena rng?
Supposedly layoff allegations just hit
you lose gears that are not Found or Crafted by your character
swift+sword mastery+armor one+ counterattack
ah okay

Longsword Fighter tourney message me for info there will be prizes!
Anyone elses game just crashing like crazy rn in castle?
is it just to the character that actually found it? like other slots cant use it right?
Yep, only for the character that found or crafted it
If you play ranger you’re genuinely a trash tier bot
what class do you play
Turning off all the lights in arena is some cornball gameplay
tysm
Typical rouge
your welcome
its funny as shit though (i main fighter so dont hurl the rogue accusations)
Its honestly the rangers
i love farming rogue BiS
OR ITS STRAT?
Fighting in complete darkness is so fun
unironically is
how so lmao. Might as well just off my monitor
the chaos is funny to me
Is mace or star better for cleric?
i would say mace unless u have alot of dex
Alr thanks
Why are gold keys only 2k rn
playing arena you come to realize how many people are shit at this game lol
🇲 🇦 🇰 🇪 
🇦 🇬 🇦 🇮 🇳 
Have they limited or changed how people joining dungeons mid game works? Got tired of being full rushed after a fight and took a couple months off this game
Nope
when paladin or necromancer
seems most ppl in arena dont understand how to play with the characters on their team, for instance, seems too many ppl dont let wiz cook, like bro get out of th way and let them do damage
exactly!
start game today is bad idea end of religion and reward of hr etc .. price are f hight for chest
ice map is good for what?
frostone and uniques
ap farming
ty
killing people who are ap farming
or killing ppl who kill ap farming
thats very enjoyable too yes
what mean red area with lockpick please?
insta-open without doing it a 2nd time
you silly goose, you only need to do it more than once if you have low resourcefulness
Why the hell is the game so dumb in the way it's set up with right click and left click? It's so unnatural to right click and use your left hand, and vice versa.
I changed the controls, sure. But I just got back into the game to try out sorcerer, and it defaults to "right click is your left hand." I can't find a way to change the controls for that, and it's absolutely maddening
switch the slots for sorcery memory?
Bring Back Expressman as an NPC You Can Encounter in the Dungeon
How about bringing back Expressman as an NPC that you can encounter in the dungeon? He could once again serve as a traveling merchant, allowing only those players that found him to deposit items for safekeeping and later retrieve them in the lobby, restoring his unique role in the game.
You mean switch spell mastery 1 and 2 between Q and E? I didn't think of that, that seems like it'd work!
you sir told me something i didn't knew, props
but i am also mad bad at lockpicking , i'd be a horrible thief
So did the devs give up on the game? no updates for shit
can you change races if ur f2p?
Take the cost of listing an item on the market from the money you receive when it has sold.
Listing an item should not incur a risk of wasting 1k if it doesn't sell, silly.
ty
do u find bloodsap blade or do u forge it
Yes
you can only find it from a unique mob - Warbone, its a skeleton easily identified by the viking barb helmet on its head
Only find from mob
only found in hr? is drop spawn rate lowered
Normals too
how do you get the currency then
extracting to get triumph (blue shards)
but u can only get so many in one season, which imo is stupid af
had that specific mob spawn the day before yesterday - was in norms 2nd floor ruins
in crypts hmm? interesting
I found him on 1st floor near the middle of map. Someone see this skeleton on the big breach
Have they reverted the continuous dungeon mechanic yet?
if u want i can dm you a bad screenshot
They had it, it was too much, they scaled it back
sure
Are you still capable of respawning into a match you just died in?
Yeah, you cant spawn in a server that's already going at 10 or 9 minutes or 11 left?One of them
I just want pre game lobbies and lobbies again, que based match making.
bring closing circle back, game was fire back then
I think too much targeting, teaming for that king, I do miss it also, loved the look, hey maybe we'll be able to make like a base of operations in a little cave
true 😦
yo devs, if I go invis, I should loose the fucking aggro, yet mobs can aimbot me out of invis or keep aggro after coming back from invis even though a guy took aggro instead of me, how regarded is that? who codes this game, monkeys?
like mobs keep personal beef or some shit, how regarded is that
@sterile panther do you code?
yes I do, and a third grader could implement better logic that what they have currently
alright then tell me what an abstract class does
Lose*🤓 happy to help
my messages are red now because I said sm4rt4ss. nice
Nah they gotta shake loose the aggro!

yo very smart programmer, is an abstract class something you can implement in every language? Is like asking which register outputs to a display in 8086 assembly, its language specific abstraction
no way pre-game tavern thing never needs to come back, waste of time. They should just make a social hub area where you can go to chat shit with other players to do that kinda stuff
I think archers keeping perfect tracking should be turned down to sluggish follow but a melee guy infront of you probably wouldn't just stand still and forget about you
@sterile panther almost all popular modern languages like c++, c#, java, and PHP all use them
invis the most broken ability in the game making rogue #1 class in solos and bro is complaining
so? it is also project specific, you might not even need them
@sterile panther i can almost guarentee they're at least using interfaces if not using abstract classes which just about do the same thing, and if they aren't they're missing out
so if I know that classes needs to be blueprinted that makes me somehow "a pro dev" in your mind?
otherwise my argument is invalid, which is that the aggro/invis logic is broken? lmao
do you know what a singleton is? do you know what a superclass is in python? do you know what a decorator is in python? type hinting?
smart_ptr vs unique_ptr ? let's ask all dumb questions that have no reason to be asked, they will make your point invalid
Be nice bruh 
any idea why when i load up the game my whole pc goes to 10 fps? never had that issue before
if you can't tell me what weakref are in python then sorry your argument is not valid 😦
I get making a point but id better to explain it rather than calling someone's point invalid
HiGuys!
how many coin to buy echo of screams?
i was making a point that you're giving the programmers a hard time when you probably have no clue how complex the codebase can get when it grows in size
i just seen my buddy kill some dude for 3 named items and now his game wont let him load in again
there is no reason to not touch the aggro logic after 2+ years, this is not rocket science
bros cheating correct?
The aggro logic was changed once. This was when they made mobs fixate aggro on anything touching them regardless of who is dealing damage.
big, then I simply have to wait another 2 years
It stopped an old cheese method of having a teammate not deal damage and body block while another killed it
In any case what's the issue with the current aggro logic?
you take aggro, invis, somebody else takes aggro, you come back from invis and the mob got still beef with you and lose the aggro from the guy to still chase you after invis
Depends what you mean by take aggro. If they deal damage that won't happen.
why shouldn't they fully reset after I go invis? Bosses do, why do mobs remember I stabbed them after I go invis?
let me stab you really quickly and see if you forget I stabbed you, I'll even hide behind a couch or something
if you disappear from reality and then reappear I might not
Boss aggro works completely differently. They don't have a target based on who last damaged them at all so invisible isn't a factor.
I said I'd hide behind a couch, you aren't phasing sir, you are using hide xD and if it's phantom or dreamwalk, you are literally visible
Bro, I haven't met a longsword fighter in arena in like 15 games, are we that extinct
my point is, if something stabs me and then disappers from my view, I'm still wildly swinging in the closest arc I can to try to hit the invisible thing
also some archers still aimbot you after you go invis, shouldn't aggro stop attacks? it makes no sense
My characters right hand hits a wall two feet to the left of me and cancels the cast non stop in area.Super fun
Players in arena usually know not to swing broad into a longsword, it's over for longswordbros
aggro stopping attack animations? you are wilding now. the attack is a multi step process. interrupting it because of a change in aggro makes little to no sense from my perspective, perhaps you could change that though.
so it works on bosses, who is really annoying for people who boss but not on normal mobs?
This is to do with attack queue. If a mob has already started an attack invis doesn't stop them. Their attacks will still track you as if you aren't invisible.
You can always do a swift riposte, that's not a issue, I eat demon's glee for breakfast, it's just that I miss the longsword fights
so my buddy still cant get on the game after extrracting with 3 named items after he killed someone by the name of wiickedwisp isnt that like a ddos or something
boss attacks still happen, you just lose their immediate sightline because they are busy finishing their attack pattern
NO MOBS IN ARENA
not really, spectral stops and teleports back to its spawn point, its just inconsistent af. standardize the logic.!!!
spectral is literally the buggiest boss my guy....hop in there with 3 people and watch him aggro EVERYONE
Ah I see the confusion here. This is to do with bosses resetting if there are no valid targets. It's not very useful though as their HP is set to full.
We need duels man, invite your friends, you don't get anything you just get to see who's better at riposing the other guys riposte
dnd is literally the buggiest game would be more accurate
lmfao, no. not even close. carry on with your very limited perspectives though.
their is war in south korea? any info about patch or wipe?
Bosses in general don't have the same aggro mechanics. They work completely differently to mobs. They attack anyone in their arena even if they never dealt damage.
I'll ping you when I see my friends are online, we can go in the dungeon have some 1v1's
My lantern shield parry would 1v3 you, just you watch

what lane mean my spell damage its magical power or magical powe bonus percent?
we need testing area right
magical power increases ur magical power bonus % and u count the magical power bonus %.. say a spell does 10 dmg.. with 1.0 scaling and 40% mpb u would do 14
true thx
Know what would be really cool I think for Arena? Not facing trio Rangers or Wiz Wiz Sorc.
I think.
I think that would be fun.
question, where in the hell is dark ritual room
im currently softlocked from completing dark advisor for tavernmaster
They need to do something about AI randomly switching target in fights, that's absolutely atrocious
I believe it's the boss room?
yeah the lich room? ive been there 3 times, didnt count at all
Maybe it only counts in the hell version?
the room was removed from inferno
You guys have 1 week to remove panther Druid from the game
I'd say it's the ghost king room
thats literally impossible to do, since lich was removed from hell and moved to crypts
No other class other than fighter is playable because you just get cutthroat pantherd to death you guys MUST change this
great lol, so i probably wont get an extract when i have to cross the entire map to go find the boss room
How are you guys so incompetent when it comes to character balancing. For future reference you have to watch what you buff because it can ruin the game
bro just lost a kit to a druid
Can't wait for the druid buff it's unplayable right now
Facts I hate fog of war it makes bossing on inferno impossible
its the ghost kings boss room in inferno..
I mean idc I can put a 200k kit on and never die I’m just trying to have fun on other characters and I can’t
i dont even need to kill it which is the shitty part, i literally have to explore the entirety of inferno, hope to get an exfil, and also find the boss room all while hoping iron mace doesnt spawn 3 axe skeles on the way
if they're gonna nerf anything please for the love of god nerf the nightmare axe skeletons, they dont need to one tap nearly every class
I mean with reds opening 1.30 into the game, having a static location for the boss would just encourage people farming it over and over and over, which IMO is not a good thing
for quests its stupid though, i already have to rely on rng due to random dungeons and some rooms not even spawning, but then i have to find an exfil on a map i dont even usually play
@viral needle you are right these kids are too dumb to realize and so are the devs. You can literally only players fighter if you’re going inferno
plays a match
hears a druid coming in
use stattic cause fck that battlew
anyone know if theres gonna be rewards for ur arena rank this season?
Yeah but all the other bosses you can farm now way less people are doing ghost king warlord and lich
hey game down for anyoneelse?
It’s pretty much just everyone doing hr wyvern
Hopefully it goes down right now. And they nerf Druid into the ground. Or they are going to kill their own game
Even if they did people will still complain
Just a bard fighting a druid.. I feelk so bad for the bard man, druids are cancer
bard and fighter are the class's ive had most sucsess vs druid on
Bear Druid is a matchup that you can outplay as a melee, but Panther druid definitely needs some balancing
Panther needs a nerf
they need to fix bear body hitbox
Bear's impact power should be lowered. Most of the time you get a knock back animation with the shield
Skill issue
Me when the panther druid basically 3 taps every squishy
It is not unless you hit only headshot and its hard on panther while you and the opponent are moving and you are still 2 taps headshot with 2hand or 3-4 max with single hand
i agree tis a touch overtuned
Had a bunch of druid hit me in legs/chest or stomach yesterday in arena and they basically killed me in 3 swings. 140hp/26-30% pdr
hey does goblin merchant items retrieval not work if u you die in the hole in new module in inferno?
fell there and not getting my shit back
Never if you fall in void sorry its probably to avoid people from jumping in a fight to get back their kit
Imagine the lil goblin having to go in the void to get your gear
Are people able to turn off shadows or something? Or making it so it's not as dark?
too much work for that douche, well there goes 50k was fun exploring that new lever
Is it the place with all the gate that are keeping opening/closing ? There is a hole in that room and i never want to go in ahha
noo its the place with all sorts of blue and purple potions, there is a lever on the ground that u pull, opens a staircase lower with a nother lever, pull that and u fall to a hole that opens
continue dungeon is so damn shitty I'm getting paranoid that someone just spawn where I spawned and just easily walk towards me from behind.
People pump gamma 3rd party program
need more emote when resting on camping or X for some immersion lol
wonder when the fuck they are gonna nerf druid
Buff... druid?
its almost like the devs want us to stop playing their game
Would you play if there was a owl wildshape🦉
they should add fuckin frost wyvern at this point wouldnteven make a difference
Can the owl drop a rock and one shot people?
Well you make a very loud hoot right after to Jumpscare them, cant let them feel safe you know?
Panther leap is a better jumpscare
New hotfix: increased panther leap volume by 70%
Cooldown reduced to 6 seconds and it now has 2 charges
does luck help with boss loot?
luck is a scam
no that 160
After further beta testing, we have decided to remove the druid, i mean so many people said to remove druid so why not?
Dude teaming is out of controll in hr
now invis rouge next pls
The game is now just you and a goblin in a room.
Anyone else getting endless connecting when booting the game and sometimes forever loading when going to inferno?
Sounds more fun
Thanks i spent some time on it, maybe it would be a a skeleton on ruins and an ice spider in caverns
i havent played GC in months an the first thing was a team kill calling me a fat FT N*R lmaooo
are we getting update today;(
Do you have any screenshots of this happening, if so make sure to report it tohttps://discord.com/channels/988365908009447485/1234628884843069530
why up AP if its for pay HR? and if we dont know what is the reward..
i gave up on doing that, nothing ever happens and its a CONSTANT thing for this game. game chat and VC ESPECIALLY
Please keep any screenshots, recordings, any evidence that shows 100% wrong-doing against you, with you. It is a slow and steady thing.
is there any maps of shine of sacfire locations at golbin cave ruins
need that emote of coffe from madrinas but force to buy product like this ..
add more emote when resting with blue and red shard plssssss
Is there only one boss on crypts per map
