CAN BARD SPAWN BUFFED IN ARENA? so many maps im already rushed before ive finished buffing, for example 330 ms rogue wiz sorc or purge shot ranger before im able to finish buffing at the highest playspeed 50% Manual dexterity also skipping max notes. bard imo weakest class in arena for sure good players can make it work but with Warlock spell pred / weakness and purge shot ranger on everyteam its not balanced 180 hp 45 pdr and im two tapped by longbow with purge shot.

Remove druid from the game. 
not even that bad to go against anymore. rogues, sorcs and warlocks are the main issue
Guys the ancient stingray egg exists at all? Why is none at the market...
sells for too much to be on the market
so the collector quest is impossible?
no its just very difficult
Just prohibitively expensive. People are actually selling the eggs. It's just exorbitantly priced at 12-15 full chests... (usually 4-5 DB's) because the drop rate is so insanely low
Yup
buff 2 handed weapons
ANY CANDY CORN LEFT IN DG?
so there are a couple of things, if the weapon you are trying to parry has a small impact power the counter window is far smaller and you also have to fight the desync

Hey I'm pretty new to Dark and Darker, and I find the item system very intimidating and off-putting. Do I need to be using the market place and buying/equipping a new set of armor every time I die? I'd love to find an in-between for doing all that work and going into the dungeon with starter gear
Try complete quest specific quest to unlock better starting gear. Want better magic gear? Complete a couple alchemist quest to unlock squire white gear.
oh I didnt know that was an option at all, thank you
as you complete those quest those merchant will sell you higher grade gear like Green-blue but they roll random blue stats
see this list: https://darkanddarker.wiki.spellsandguns.com/Squire
it's a bit outdated in parts i think. But most should be right. Check affinity levels on the side for what you want/need
So I will still have to buy gear each time I die, yeah? It seems like a hassle; how do you handle it?
the squire kit (your starter kit) will go from being poor (2 strength) to common (3 strength) which better and you'll have more options
@compact delta
high roller is literally unplayable without gear in solos... getting jumped by unique gemmed people every single match in a row 🙁
so get unique 😉
uh guys you better start complaining about druid RIGHT NOW your hurting the hivemind
dead game lost all your big streamers to arc raiders need to do better
its almost like streamers flock to new releases then quit after a few weeks 
for sure but this game is insane and sdf does nothing so
we get new content once every 2 years. during the downtime its fish flop changes what more could you ask for?
you cant ask for anything it doesnt happen thats my point wil be the downfall
IT DOESNT EXISTS MAN I KILLED THE BOSS 150 TIMES AND NOTHING HAPPENS, (and no one sells it in the market cuz its worth more than 50k which is the max sell amount in the market, everyone sells it in the trade area for artifacts)
other than not going in the direction of a shark what the fuck are we supposed to do with no shield???????????
shark is harder than stingray and i approve of that message
need a dev to pin my message what is this game design
Idk man HR kinda been poppin, all the streamers on arc means more players are confident to bring gear to HR lol
hopped on, got nice gear, got killed by the top 5 guy in the leaderboard with three attacks, went back to boss farming in PVE
I mean yea I didn’t say it was gonna be free haha, just no streamers = more player confidence even tho the unknown slayers are much better
ye i get u lmao, i like the whole idea. its all risk and reward type shit, BUT IDC I WANT THE FUCKING STINGRAY EGG
just wait for HR Version to come out, odds should be increased plus a chance at named war maul and spear
nah man i want something no casual player can get, ill get better at gear and PVP, i got the grasp of item rolls and been doing better at picking biss
unless they fix the stupid random queue system, no one is going to bring stacks of breath potion every round while getting gobo caves and ice 5 times in a row, lol. Stingray in HR aint happening before they undo their stupid random
that’s good man, gl out there
real chads can kill stingray with no meds and no air pots, i use 0 resources and kill it back to back (i need help, i killed it too many times)
Yea I mean arc raiders should serve as a lesson to ironmace that now they have competition. This game will always have its core player base but now what we really need is convenience and qol updates. Skill tree too or something to immerse ourselves with current systems
With tarkov full release November 15 this game is cooked for a hot minute
what class?
sorc with long sword (and i go squire in pvp)
so items found on new map are totally worthless? only for quests no crafting? peak fking design
sorc is really good cuz of the spell, fuck finding the bubbles
they just bought everything from the asset store sorted by ascending price, to fill out the map.
doubt any more thought went into anything.
I see
can u kill it yet?
yea its fcking lazy
crafting in DaD just sucks all around
never tried this boss (yet)
DONT, RUN AWAY AND NEVER LOOK BACK. FUCK THIS BOSS MAN, U BECOME 40% SPEED, UR ACTION SPEED IS THE NEGATIVES, AND ITLL TAKE U 3 DAYS OF GETTING SCREWED UNTILL U GET THE BOSS) it took me three days cuz i was learning the boss the sec it came out
crafting was never properly developed. And is absolutely useless with how the current pools are set up. At least with reg upto purple, there was a point to crafting frost, ruby or golden gear.
no one is going to run those in HR, and normals are blocked off at blues now
also prices of a lot of crafting materials are way to high for their performance
I'll learn wyvern then
please quiver
WE NEED A BIG QOL UPDATE
$5,99 a season sorting button + quiver pack.
I mean.. they are already pulling this bs with the stash...
when is wiz nerfs
I guess im talking about fixing bugs and smoothing out the game for a better experience
How do I get 0 points for a win in arena
crazy how this game is the exact same since 4years i doing the exact same things all the time lol every kr game are same like lol this one and others
No significant team contribution
Just coming back from a break, any reason I can't equip gloves from the squire on a fighter?
You probably are trying to wear plate with Slayer perk on
please i want your opinion. Do you think its fun to do boss when faustian bargein monster come to you ? I mean it's just boring troll... do you know if they are going to fix it ? Like to do not able bargain to annoy players who are doing boss ?
lvl 1 so only have 2h perk on, Also weirdly it shows I have gloves on from the squire after dying but still the squire screen shows I don't have gloves equipped as a base load out and when i try to add it says no elgible slots
can any stat make you reload the hand cannon faster
hello guys
does arena servers are broken after 2 weeks or is fixed so i can find match and play
Action speed
can i find game in arena now
can someone please say to me does match finding are fixed or no
My game crashed in a dungeon and when I got back on my gold was missing???
last arena i wait 10 minutes for game
no even at 80% its still the same speed
Maybe you're building interaction speed by accident?
no 80% on my ranger and 15% action on my fighter same reload speed! maybe im bugged
It could be a bug
it is a new weapon and this is IM tracks
Average Ironmace moment
lemme restart my game and try again
What does an intricate wooden figurine do?
are we deadass i ask why i need to wait 10 minutes for game and i get seen
this game is fck sh4t 10 minutes for one match are someone crazy to wait for that time
Give us Spell presets
Doubt you have 80% action speed on your ranger
will we ever get quiver?
what is the diference between the falchion and cutglass because from what i can see, in their base form the falchion seems to do a bit more damage. What about their attack speed or blocking capacity?
@glad thunder @zinc sparrow Please increase the drop rate of the stingray egg! Please!
does anyone want a soulscraper with 2 add wep and 1.6 action speed also with str
wich lobby skin have sound effect?
is there anything specific I have to do to get the cockatrice vendor to create gems? Initially it seemed like I was getting them every other day but it's been like a week with nothing
headshoot damage bonus is meta stat?
cutlass can parry and riposte
Whats better +5 move speed or 1.5% move speed bonus
MSB is based off 300MS so 1.5%MS is 4.5MS
So +5MS is better
how do u use lantern shield attack??
press and hold block again after you block
press what? so js after I block smtn I press right click and hold it?
this game is big * when ppl comme pvp and lose they jsut run out jesus
hahahhahhaha
does goblin recovery work on pve
9k online primetime on weekend and we are only 1 month into wipe…. YIKES
Anyone else’s game super buggy for some reason? Stupid fps rn and I didn’t change a thing from yesterday
Is physical power better than additional weapon damage?
What do i do if i cant log into blacksmith it says "server error. please try again. (2)
What did they do to this game lmao warlocks out melee fighters
I believe phys power just contributes to your phys power bonus, additional weapon damage is more damage for your weapon (so if you have a longsword with 45 dmg, then +2 add weapon dmg, that longsword now does 47 dmg) additional weapon damage contributes to limb modifiers aswell, someone can correct me if I'm wrong
REMOVE BATS FROM THE GAME
Add more bats to the game!
Could someone please sell me a Fulgor for a really cheap price? It's been my dream since I was a child to own one!
Are luck pot rolls effected by your luck before drinking
how do i report someone on here who was being racist in chat
i like how rangers decide the outcome of 90% of my arena games
pretty much almost every game is decided by whether their ranger can hit you or not, and whether your ranger can hit them or not
and if you get close to them, well they've built for high damage and action speed, so you're dead anyway
so they win the melee fight
Learning GK rn, why did it insta kill me in pve?
Like it wasnt earthquake, it seemed like the scream? Even though I have 40% undead damage reduction, and 50% mdr?
probably too many debuff stacks
if you get hit by gk or stand in his puddles, you build stacks that multiply his damage
I didnt think that I stood in any of the puddles, I didnt notice any slow or the debuff symbol
For lock, is it better to cast hellfire on him? Or should I use a grimslayer?
did he slam the ground? that does a lot of damage
No, i know how to dodge the slam. I also found out you cant phantomize it
if you died to the scream you had too many debuff stacks, that's it'
the closer you are to him, the more damage his scream does
how do i scrap squire gear? like when i die and got reserve gear idk what to do with the starter gear
sell to vendor
Rangers need a nerf
there's always at least one ranger in every arena game, and they usually have twice as much damage as their teammates
ironmace can't possibly think geared ranger is balanced
DOUBLE fOOTSTEP SOUND
This is the first wipe in 2 years when I barely touched solo HR. In SSF it was 3-4 rogues per lobby. I just played my first game and it seems to be the same... IM just doesn't give a fk about solo balance, but they sure said they will try... yeah right... Solo EU HR is just lame
Did anyone ever answer you?
bows should do less damage than a dagger
the biggest problem with geared ranger imo is how easy it is to hit shots
you have to anticipate when to dodge instead of reacting like you can with any other ranged attack in the game
in game or in discord
multishot is horseshit, I'm mostly fine with the rest. They probably shouldn't be able to hold shots forever
i lose all my expessman< what is the timer for recover it?
making full luck gear to farm pve is a good idea or no
would be cool if we won a little bit of money when we won an arena match
yes, its pretty cheap to buy those back from goblin plus its so hard to die with good gear in pve
Idk about that but I think its ridiculous how much damage they CAN do, especially headshots from a longbow and the fact purge shot now is a passive too
when expressman wants to come back
i lost all my expressman since days each time
when the ranger shoots a bow, there's a delay before the arrow actually fires, and that delay is affected by action speed
so a BIS kit ranger's arrows have way less delay, so it's way easier to hit their shots
on top of being able to shoot much more often with tons of damage
if they nerfed action speed's effect on the bow's shoot delay, ranger would be way more balanced imo
im fine with them being deadly at range. It's the fact that after I close the distance I have to flip a coin on surviving multishot and then if I live through multishot I have to fight spear + backdash. Basically have to close the distance without taking too much dmg, bait multishot, then bait backdash and close again and then fight them
on wizard you just have to get in range of explosion and zap and win the shootout, which is fine. On bard, as long as I don't get shot up too bad I can lament + shriek and chop em up. I hate fighting them on barb tho
please remove warlock from the game i wanna destroy my computer with my punch (im fighter player HR solos) is full of this Cncer
anyone knows why sometimes blue exits just don't work? It is kind of annoying dying in a dungeon for running out of time after having tested like 3 different exits
Is this game good yet
if the blue torch isn't burning, someone else already took the exit and it can't be used again
no barbs are still in the game
anyone know if lantern shield is the only option for shield bash? would buckler do way less damage?
whats so good about boneshaper?
Shield bash does same damage no matter the shield
dope thanks
hi does anyone know when halloween candy corn event ends and candy cane starts?
*is it normal when i turn ingame voice on and off game is like lagging hardcore while turning on and off or am i the only one
So what’s used as currency now?
Same with fighters been able to hold riposte position indefinitely, it just leads to laziness. *Classes than can use the long sword"
Unique gems? Coin bags? chest?
Really ? Thanks? Before was keys?
my game is at 20 FPS when i turn voice on and off
no issues on my end
Bro its insane i already ask a streamer on twitch if he can spamm the voice on off button he also dont have lags
So you think that when you use a external device and it causes a stutter on your computer is dark and darker fault? Have you checked your sound drivers?
probably some device related issues yeahg
So it must be a audio thing right? because i uninstalled nvidia driver everthing reinstalled darker ... updated windows idk
Also when i deactivate my whole Audio its still happening. and i dont have any issues in any other games its for 2 months now i cant play the game anymore really
i was thinking my pc is broke but i updated everything ... and reinstalled everything und every other game works fine on ultra +OBs and darker just annoying as fuck also when i go castle bridge laggy. idk what to do
How long until I should get nervous that the Goblin hasn't returned my stuff yet from PVE mode?
how good is the staff on barbarian is it worth playing with instead of axe or am i shooting myself in the foot
I'd ask in the Barb channel, but I can say I've never seen a barb using a staff, but that's in only like 400 hours or so
Not too many ppl use the quarterstaff, it used to have no sour spot and more ppl used to use it, but after it had sour spot added the use went on a decline. IMO that's why almost no use uses it, also as a whole 2h weapons are in s very bad spot, use them if you really want to challenge yourself hitting limbs is very common on 2h weapons and the damage penalty is a lot for how slow, normally, they are
2h weapons are in a bad spot?
what should i be using on barb otherwise if not 2 handed?
is it just on ON and OFF switch? if so just leave it on and use push to talk or something
is the cockatrice trader suppose to give u stuff daily?
I wouldn't say its in a bad spot but they cost a lot of movement speed to wield, vs a barb with a lantern and viking sword for example and in this meta if you're not fast you're just gonna get kited to death by nearly everything
Club and lantern, horseman axe got buffed, has longer reach, but mostly club is used as has infinite swings, like the rondel
i will post a clip in a second the thing is this is not normal and i play this game for a year now and for like 2 months when i go castle bridge on trios its laggy as fuck and i know its not normal.. look at this.. and no other game has any problem lags like this or any audio issues i can stream and play everything but for like 2 months i cant play darker anymore really and stream it also..
i will give it a try
what perks should i be running w it though
can u msg me so i can show the clip
Probably robust, berserker, iron will, and whatever else you want
20min
Ah I thought it was 15 for the length of the round, makes sense. Got it back, thanks
Wdym buyback
I's there a way to insure my gear?
ya the only insurance in this game is only for pve, its the goblin merchant and works for all your pve deaths
Do I need to pay him before or no
nah its automatic. u pay him afterwards
Great
Insuring should be a thing every where but you pay beforehand something like tarkov
i usually play with no gear or a different gear set in the meantime. just never exit the game while goblin merchant is holding your gear. i once lost a whole set to that
Yeah I know after an hour it goes poof, and I did just that. Just the waiting rounds paid for about 10 such losses lol
Is it even possible to get frost map in hr anymore? havent gotten it a single time for 2 days
yes i had it twice in a row lol
fucking crazy, been trying to do wyvern for 2 days, over 50 runs and not a single frost and that's the only one i want
so is dnd gonna die?
never
Do any ranger perks apply to the gun
sad to see my favorite game get discarded liket this, idk wtf the devs are doing
is there an easy way to get a shining pearl
@wispy zodiac
should i quit and play arc raiders?
this ttvstrawhatberto guy is in every game and has 40% action speed as a bear like jesus christ
goat thankfully devs buffed druid it really needed it
Is there anyone who is willing to help me get some tide stone ore
druid players are the worst
Level 70 barbarian need help to get tidestone ore pls lmk if you can help can’t get past manta
just buy it it's cheap af on the market
I need it to be looted to get quest down
the quest allowed it to be bought
if it's the quest im thinking of it doesn't have to be looted
Oh crap that’s nice that it is thank you
Looks kinda unfinished to me ngl, and kinda tedious too
only other exfill game i remotely enjoy other than this one was hunt showndown
You don’t even get loot in that game just a boss token, mine as well be a battle royale not extractornlooter
fair enough lmao
if this game was good i could get my kumas fang kit back from the goblin merchant but this game is sadly ass
why am i getting less than 10 rating per win at 2700?
how much is kumas claw going for gold wise
It's called "high roller" brother you are supposed to risk your stuff for a chance at extremely nice loot
anyone know how to add a class channel in disc?
"chanel's and roles" above the Announcements
it doesnt show me warlock
Weird, the whole list shows for me, warlock is near the bottom
whats the name of the purple quarterstaff that isn't the regular quarterstaff?
Trolls bane
Me like loot
could SDF make a poll for squire to riches, see how many people vote to remove ice caves from the pool, or is that too much of an opportunity for the game to improve?
when did this last wipe?
do teamers actually get punished?
probably only in Hr
purge shot for rangers isn't showing magic damage on test dummies, is it really working? it should be doing 3 true magic damage per shot...
broken english perks wtf
Is thrust not a good perk if I’m not running any armor pen?
Daily reminder the devs have entirely forgotten the minor artifact contest it would appear.
is arena ssf?
Not atm sadly. Market gear is kept on loss
cool thanks
SDF 
does the goblin merchant retrieve your gear in highroller?
anyone else not getting crypts?
i've seen a lot of other people stating this, who else is enjoying rubber banding back and forward through time and space? i've had literally up to 8 second rubber bands.
anything about artifact arenas ?
need an arenas partner to squad with to reduce this ridiculous wait time in OCE server. We have fighter and wizard. Add me- SINNSY
Am i the only one who feels like dad has become fireball and fireball?
does rowboating the correct direction go faster, or does it even matter?
Yeah you go faster rowing the correct direction
Yeah all the teams have wizards in them also ranged damage is just absurd. No reason to play melee when 2 fireballs is enough to kill anyone
when is wipe
Just close the gap 🥱
where do all the torn sails spawn ?? is there only one spot? i cannot find any anywhere in blue maelstorm... done several runs so far
purge shot only does the damage if it actually purges something
Dummy does not have a buff to remove for it to proc
does anyone know lol... ? did everyone skip tailors quest
can someone explain why open sallet is available to rangers? What is the thought process?
what is massive troll belt for?
wts ranger turbo bis kit DM
What is considered a good amount of health or crazy amount of health that is achievable
guys could anyone help me i have been laggin crazy last few days in dark and darker i reseted a pc like a week ago and first few days it was running pretty smooth and it also elliminates fact that there is any malware on pc that might be casuing the lag, as i legit only isntalled dark and darker discord and google. after i noticed a lot of lag on native resolution i sadly switched to 1280x720 but then it started laggin this way too and rn my game is running ok but as soon as i press tab and open inventory fps drops to like 30
Game performance bad since last update, devs have yet to hotfix it
chumleaker, chumapocalypse, and whatever other names he has sucks at the game everyone whisper him
can you use unique item in arena
Nope, up to legendaryh
at least 3 spots

does magic healing work with druid heals or how it work?/
I believe most of druid abilities are 50% scaling, think mending grove is 0 though
GG just lost a 50k kit to server lag holy im uninstalling
aight thanks for telling me i will try to perservere for now
What the best hat for a wizard? Need one for my arena kit
If you scroll further down you can see every class has their own channel they can probably help you
There really is no "best hat" just depends on what you're lacking. Most of the time its a leather cap though
Too much Cheater TOOO much Cheater TOOO MUCH CHEATER GG unistall
we lost bruce lee gg
What is going whit this game no a single wave ban since wipe or what do i need to cheat too ?
MAke or break patch they say for me it jsut break
Maelstrom needs to not have the water and storm show up until FIVE minutes are left not 10. no one wants to play in that sht and feel anxious and rushed about getting out after you start with only 15 minutes left wtf
For rat runs, would solo Barb or Rogue work better?
they might aswell just give club to warlock at this point
Does the goblin merchant ever work
Was there ever a Wendigo in the loot room for ice caves or am I tripping
rogue
Depending to which one.
This fuckas game is so poorly optimised its not even funny i could code better than this
Rogue is super op now.... it is cancer they are evrywhere now 🫣 or braindead barbarian with leg from table... How two shot you but it isnt something new... Barbar is braidead shi.... since they release dark and darker...
Just do it they will steal it after xD and put it to game 🫣🫣🫣😅
could it be worth stacking HeadshotDmg on Crystal BoC Lock? any opinions on that?
Fk this game bruh even arrows go through my heater i might as well go one handed
I think headshot dmg is rly good over all boc lock with good set+ headshot dmg can pretty easy one tap almost evryone ...
Warlock is kind of broken now if you have some dmg on gear and 3 shards basicaly you just pop boc hit someone one times and if he hit you he will die because reflect....
its for arena mostly, and there i dont use shards, cas you only have mobs in the first round
The game for pvp is at a good state but wizard needs a buff so dose ranger as both them with no gear suck
This is my no gear to gear tier list at top no geared fighter cleric bard barb sorc warlock druid rogue ranger wizard
💀
Now geared top gose like this fighter rogue bard sorc cleric
So ranager barb druid wizard needs a buff to bring them level with other class warlock is in the s tier after rogue btw

does anybody know how much a stingrays egg is worth currently?
4 gazillions
Why let players control mobs, why do i have to face off a player and 2 goblin players helping him to kill me??
2 red goblins and bissed rogue vs me
they ignore the rogue, just chase me, simply to grief
Removed Goblins item return and added mob control.
Mob control would make sense, if goblin could return items from dungeons.
Mob control is simply for 2 v 1 and griefing
I'd say all above 130 is very decent
quiver when?
when ranked faustian
which map would be the one in which there is better loot? Also which map would be the best to go in terms of time/loot efficency?
I'm not an expert, but I would say crypts because of the 3 layers. And for time efficiency I'll say frost mountain, at least with magic classes.
With this being said. Just play landmine rogue in solos. Thats how you'll make the most money fast with this current meta.
wts BIS ranger kit DM
Hot pastrami day. That’s gotta be a top 10 day of the year but sucks for this guy
I suggest you look for hr and arena leaderboards. Sorc and warlock are by far the 2 worst performing classes
Rogue fell so weak Rn
💀
because sorc and warlock work better then they can kite through different modules, just a consequence of the format. similarly wizard is great in arena bc he never runs out of spells
what happend to warlocks demon form ability, it aint healing jack anymore
its description is wrong af as well
frost mountain or maelstrom if you know where free piles are high level chests are
what i can craft with tidestone ore ? which merchant and what affinity cuz i have like 3/4 quests of all and i dont see nothing with it

do you lose non looted gear in arena?
did vigor get nerfed since season 5/6 in 2024
Yo you have a lot of teamers in west shit is stupid
Arc Raiders isn’t just a game — it’s a living world built with love. You can feel it the moment you drop in: the music, the teamwork, the way every fight feels like hope against the storm.
The developers didn’t just make a game; they made a connection. They listen. They care. Every update feels like a thank-you to the players who believe in their vision.
And that’s where Dark and Darker falls short. It’s dark, yes — but empty. You don’t feel that same heartbeat, that same warmth from the people behind it.
Arc Raiders reminds us what gaming is supposed to be — not just surviving, but belonging.
It’s proof that when developers love their players, the game becomes something greater than the sum of its parts.
teamers, cheaters everywhere mate
report them with hard evidence for them to drop a "temp" ban
skill issue gooner
stick to helldivers lil buddy
FUCKING ARC RAIDERS LADIES AND GENTLEMEN
so does goblin retriever no longer bring gear back in norms
and is 200hp rogue no longer META?
Hasn't in awhile, only pve

Is there a good guide on DaD's combat out there?
I come from Souls and Tide games, so I need a bit of re-wiring done when it comes to combat.
Hello there, I'm a hardcore veteran of this game. I started playing during its fourth closed beta and immediately purchased the Founder's Edition when it officially launched. I've watched the game's concurrent players drop from 100,000 to 3,000, only to recover to 10,000 today. I have achieved Demigod rank in every season and witnessed every single change the game has undergone. I'm well aware of the game's current predicament — if it refuses to evolve, it will only face extinction.
First off, the current 10,000 concurrent players are a false prosperity. A large number of players and merchants are AFK at the trading post, not venturing into matches but only chasing profits. Even if we assume just 10% of them (which is 1,000 people, though the actual number is likely higher) fall into this category, we then need to exclude free-to-play players. They mostly stick to casual lobbies or PvE content, accounting for roughly half of the remaining player base — around 4,500 people. Next are the arena-only players, who only log on when the arena is open. Subtracting another 500 from the 4,500 leaves just 4,000 players who actually play High Roller matches.
And the High Roller experience is abysmal. I almost never play Solo High Roller — clearing mobs alone is a huge drain on my energy. Only specific classes and builds can defeat all bosses while dealing with greedy teammates. The only upside is that there are relatively few cheaters. Duo High Roller is hands down the best mode among Solo, Duo, and Trio High Roller — no complaints there, but finding a reliable teammate is extremely difficult. Trio High Roller is the mode I play most, but it suffers from the same teammate problem. The game's gear system means every normal High Roller run comes with extremely high costs. Going up against well-geared players with subpar equipment is practically impossible. That's why having teammates willing to invest in good gear is so crucial. However, most players don't have a fixed team, making it incredibly hard to find two people to run High Roller with. The sunk cost is too high, and you never know the skill level of random teammates — losing is far too common.
As an Asian company, you must understand how demanding work hours are here. Almost all players of this game are adults who simply don't have the time to maintain a consistent team. This is why fewer and fewer players are joining High Roller matches. Additionally, High Roller is plagued by cheaters. While blatant aimbots are almost non-existent now, wallhackers are everywhere. They lurk just outside the toxic zone, waiting to ambush you and steal your loot the moment you let your guard down, then retreat back to safety. You can't chase them at all because they always know where the safe zones are. It wouldn't surprise me if the game eventually turns into a generic MMORPG — and that would be the end of it.
With that said, I have several suggestions for you:
- Retaining Players: Increase Game Content
Continuous updates are a must. Seven seasons have passed, but the amount of new content added is pitifully small. I can finish all the new content of each season within the first month, and then it's just repetitive gameplay that gets more boring as time goes on. I acknowledge that you've made many small balance adjustments — they help, but not enough. Furthermore, events are essentially just ways to earn premium currency, which doesn't bring any new vitality or fun to the game. I understand you're a small company, and frequent content updates are impossible compared to major studios. However, at the very least, you should introduce new items, monsters, or mechanics every two months (even if they're temporary, like Apex Legends' event-themed content). You can remove them later — this would greatly maintain player engagement. Content updates are absolutely critical.
MR PRESIDENT GET DOWN
we literally know that 25% of all players play PvE, rest plays PvP modes and we literally can see how many are in dungeon my guy
- High Roller Balance Adjustments
Remove Movement Speed entry from Shoes: This is the most balance-breaking stat. A character's movement speed should be determined by their overall build. If they want high health and armor, they should sacrifice movement speed; if they want high agility, they should lose out on other stats. But movement speed entry on shoes make agility nearly irrelevant — a good pair of shoes can replace multiple agility entries, fundamentally undermining build diversity and turning everyone into overpowered "superhumans." This is completely unacceptable.
Reduce Gear and Teammate Costs: Here's a bold suggestion: make all gear spawn with maximum roll, and allow gems to be socketed at full roll immediately. This way, gear tiers are still preserved, RMT (real-money trading) will be severely hit, and cheating will likely decrease as well. High-tier gear will still be valuable, while low-tier gear will remain viable. Gear names and their unique effects can stay unchanged. This change would drastically lower the cost of purchasing gear and make losses more bearable. If I lose a match, I can just run another to get fully optimized gear again and compete with well-equipped players on a more level playing field. Players who invest in top-tier gear will still have an advantage — this system merely narrows the absolute gap between them and other players. This is extremely important, as it doesn't undermine the variety of gear entry combinations (since gems can still be used to customize entries to one's liking).
Strengthen Skill Weight: For High Roller PvP, reduce skill cooldowns and enhance skill effects. This will lower the relative importance of gear without completely negating its value, unlike previous updates that ruined gear progression.
- Add Customizable FOV
Being able to adjust the field of view (FOV) is crucial. In a game like this, vision is everything, but the current FOV is far too small, making it easy to lose track of enemies during fights.
Finally, every word I've said comes from 3,000 hours of gameplay. I truly hope you can keep this game running for 10 years, not just struggle to survive until the end of this year. This game has great monetization potential — I suggest selling shared stash tabs and additional trading slots. No one will oppose this, and dedicated players (who are already willing to pay for an expensive game) are more likely to spend money on such convenience. RMT is already rampant because players can profit from it. As long as you deliver quality content and sell non-pay-to-win items, plenty of people will buy them.
Last but not least, hire a competent game designer or community manager as soon as possible. The current direction isn't sustainable. Don't forget that you split off from your previous company, and it was the players who supported you. Don't forget the promises you made on your original official website. I hope for a better future and look forward to your changes.

yo dude tldr i am happy for you or sorry it happened
new to HR - are blue portals random?
whats the best perks and skills for squire gear mosquito
when is next wipe?
yes, only infinite extracts are static, also ropes
How much does a stingray egg cost?
Guys, 1 physical power or 0,9% physical damage bônus?
thanks
do you play on us-west
i finally saved up for a ranger arena kit
i feel so balanced right now
trying to learn goblin cave bosses in pve mode, terrible mistake these lobby are full of artifact geared rat that farms the bosses and gold ore
only squire gear should be allowed in pve mode
I'll give you a funny gibbon gif for one
I'm not good at maths, but I feel like I'd rather have the 1 physical power
Bows should have a dead range. It's dumb that you can get hit by a bow when youre on top of them, but with a melee weapon you'd be hitting with a sour spot.
express man scam all time anything in the shop from my in game bank.
thx sir.
anyone notice crystal balls light up excessively now? I was hitting a druid from far away really accurately only because of the huge red crystal ball on his belt.
is mystical gen bugged? got one from the centipede in normals and it wasnt in my inventory after i finished the match
does the goblin merchant recover all your pve gear ?
Unless you're voided
Please somebody anybody revert HR nightmare density. It was fine like a year ago. Nerf archers and xmobs, just a little please they are #1 offender #1 poopfactor for HR whether it’s goblin kobold or smelly skelly the ranged is too much. Melee you can cheese or kite. Makes the mode not fun, makes pvp often cheese. I say this with 8200 steam hours unironic negative review since patch 69. Raise norms rarity to epic this blue bis gets boring. Do both and you will make people happy, get more people in HR. Bring back 3 minute map rotations for all modes with 2 choices per roto. So you can choose gobs or water map this roto, next will be either garunteed crypts or ice depending on order gobs or water map appeared. Might be explaining that weird bit you never have to wait for than 1 roto is the idea and devs get a v b testing and players get agency. Lastly please let stats inflate a bit we need to be getting juicy in here
Skull Keys, Golden Keys, Frozen Iron Keys, Corroded Keys & Rusted Keys and Mystical Gems are now in raid only, very common but can't be extracted
Bring back single affix giga uniques. Bring back goblin recovery for % of items or all items but increase buyback price. Remove dead rolls (you noobs declittered rolls a while back then poop it up with inc demon damage). Bring back attribute gemming with diamonds. Devs I give you game 1.5 years of my life. No job just grind dungeon you devs have lightning in bottle then trip on weener. It’s sad to see.
got it, so if i find one of those i have to use in the same match, right?
Exactly, you've got it :D
thank you!
golld seller and devs have really break the economy like every game. only bis gear have value to sell because ppl have unlimited gold and buy only bis
Just revert the nightmare density. It’s way too many it just frankly blows to play solo HR with random map and too many nightmare. I say this as a circle acceptor/respecter. please I’m just so tired for blue bis norms. I can’t run out of kits so it’s just slaughtering timmies until someone skill checks me and gets my 5k kit. No one even has loot just grey vultures and cheapskates who won’t even drop 1.5k on decent +all jewelry. It’s tiresome and making me question my unemployment
i have a 30 minute ban from the game for "team killing" when i didn't kill a single person on my team
but good side is ppl buy faster because they dont need to farm gold..
this game is bullshit terrible devs
how much is nip worth in db
any content since first day of the day. i do the same things since the first day lmao
guys could anyone help me fix my game performance issue? its so weird and ik its most likely pcs fault but i wanna know what steps i can take to increase game performance like when i first software reseted it a week ago it could run on very nice fps at native res then i noticed it lagged a lil so i decreased res and it did look worse but i was used to lower res from cs2 and also it felt MUCH much smoother so i didnt mind it but now i am hard lagging on 1280x720 is there antyhing i can do to increase performance? i see people making their game look worse but idk how
Open disk cleaner and clean it out
you mean disk cleanup app right? yeah i am going through the checklist for performance issues hopefully it will fix it, thanks
Tell me how much space it says it's cleaning
oh i forgot to catch it when i did it but it was prob not a lot arround 380 mb maybe
is lantern shield worth riposting? I feel like I could just attack with rapier and do equal damage after the block?
R ur settings resetting for dad?
My friends settings keep getting automatically put to epic Everytime he opens for some reason
it actually happened for a bit but not anymore, and id ont even know what happened at start i could barely even notice it changed settings cause it was running relatively smoothly
What's ur task manager looking like when you're playing?
i will check in a second
around 46% cpu and 74% memory
Hmmm
How hot is it?
i must admit i dont have a good pc but my main concern was the degrading fps, i can only see the gpu temp from task maanger and its at 80 but i am about to get the msi afterburner so i think that should clear it up better
105 degrees c
80!?
That's probably why it starts off fine then gets worse
Ur burning it up lmfao
Long periods at that temp just destroys it
uhh did i give a wrong stat or am i cooked
U don't want to go above like
70 typically for prolong use
ok i am cooked it seems, should i improve cooling then?
oh yea just got the msi afterburner and its at 80 degrees
If u can yea
aight i will check if there is anything i can do atm tyvm for the help
double tower air cooler for 40 bucks
servers are so laggy, lobby lag is back @fleet imp @zinc sparrow
why is rogue a busted class
how is nobody complaining about the audio in this dogwater game
can we have more fps in trios?
ok 150hp in warlock vs a grey sorcerer who 2shooted me
can we have more fps in trade menu?
why playing unfair is favored in this game, why there aren't mechanism to fight this. Especially waiting inside boss room in safe spot or outside to just wait until someone makes the boss to attack them
What can I trade with Spactral Knight fabric?
why is it so dead 💀
Did they fix yeti boys ?
this water map is big* right?
This reason alone made me leave the idea of beating a boss
does strength increase melee damage in demon form as warlock? as strength says "increases your physical power and the damage you do with weapons"
yea it does
recruit graphic and environement designer please games looks old gen

A week before next wipe to find out reward
should i main warlock or bard?
just came back from like a 3 month leave on this game is it good
Faustian Bargain still spawns you on the edge of the map where the zone is not, so its mid
holy bot talkin bout some elon crypto lmao
4years and any boss room for train jesus
@glad thunder wtf is this faustian shit just quit the team pls
feedback suggestion: do not place boss room in the corner of the map. you are welcome

i just found out it was removed from epic games today.
i didnt know all this stuff happed till today
solaris for CD
NERF ROGUE
fix hitboxes
Bard
Taking a phat shid at work rn, had to check the chat

best weapons for slayer fighter?
anyone able to help
Probably falchion with victory strike
Depends on if you go sword n dagger, or weapon mastery. Could go sword n dagger with crossbow, or weapon mastery club n dagger with survival bow.
yo does sword mastery perk on fighter work for arming sword or only longsword
It works on any sword even a rapier
question. How the hell do I fight in the ship graveyard as a ranger?? The bow feels useless, and the arming sword does basically nothing lol (I'm talking about PVE btw)
unless arena stays open im switching to arc raiders forever. that shit is way better
Don't now how you're even struggling as a ranger
Bows seem useless underwater lol
Use a spear then
select item, enter number, click create listing
arena being on a timer is a horrible mechanic. please change even if it isnt your "vision" it is more accessible for players who dont neatly fit into your pre ordained timeline for arena being open
is kriss dagger viable on bard?
hello
some now how to migrate my account from epic games?
yes
when is wipe
why arena closed ??
game goes off of world time not usa time thus no daylight saving
Next time I take a dump probably
why is highroller dead. i've been gone for a season and a half and just came back
lmao im over 3 mins in queue rn
LITERALLY
Cause of random HR maps, nobody wants to play it and just go norms
brooo why close arena when its like the only fun part of dark and darker
Please nerf rogue into the dirt ty
bruh what is with the opus amounts of game crashes recently
Solo HR has been the worst since playtests for me this wipe. At least in EU, it's just full of rogues. Now that they nerfed throwing knife, all rogues switched back to stealth. Not fun to play against, unfortunately. But I am enjoying HR in duos.
is goblin merchent not active or is this game judt trash?
dungeon recovery is not working
game just trash then i guess
guys the game is more laggy than before or is only me?
Arena closes 5mins in advanced? IM ENRAGED!!!!!!
all swords: armin, falchion, rapier, short sword, longsword, cutlass, viking sword
it closes at 7pm now daylight savings is a usa thing not a world thing
anyone wanna do troll while i do cyclops so we can get the gold in middle
i do
If i migrate my account do i keep my items or does it only transfer my status
keep entire account as is, keep ur items.
just moves the whole account why would ur iteeeemz go away lol
He means blocking with shield while holding a sword I think. It ends with something to the effect of "when blocking with a sword"
will they EVER patch or FIX the game? no? ok nice break or break season...
it says all ym characters will go away so i assume all items in thouse characters inventorys will to
THen they were lazy as fk. WHen is the wipe? Maybe just do it then
that was the plan
does will increase poison dmg for rogue??
yeah but now the scaling for will is 1/2 of what it was
what are the calculations for that
anyone else failing to connect to the server? I'm also getting "Tavern error 21" sometimes.
is there any point to the achivments or is it just slop progression
how doies rogue poison damage work with true magic on rings. if i have +8 true magic does it apply 4 per tick or 8 or none
anyone know prices of fulgor dont see anyone listing to sell in trade chat
what levels do you start getting cockatrice and shark as your faustian?
are they gonna add loot timer back in?
whats the basics of this game
Can anyone tell me how to link a channel in the LFG? Do I just copy the link and paste?
@midnight venture i never played just watched i need a pc
I remember reading like 40? maybe 30 or even 50
does anybody else get the longsword parry glitch, i feel like 80 percent of parrys i get from pvp encounters just dont work
Where can i find skeleton champion and wraith in forgotten castle?
use dark and darker tracker to tell which specific modules
Does anyone know how Rogue poison weapon works with true magic add, if i have +8 true magic does that give me any buff
lets add those selectable hr maps back guys
just delete the game
Why Should I have all legendary on and 176 health if a poor rarity is just gonna 2 shot me
sell the game to new owners
I literally had full legendary and 176 Health and just got 2 shotted by a common weapon
It will, but it only has .5 scaling. so even though its "true" damage, you will only get 4 extra damage and its not per tick, its 4 extra damage spread over 4 seconds, so an additional 1 dmg per second
yeah it's lowkey ass
Bad enough it's cut in half, but it's also spread over 4 seconds lol
Literally this
thats not that bad it more than double base damage then, since the new 4 damage is true damage.
im using demon glee and i have the +8 true might as well run it for 4 damage extra per melee
Is wiz Ignite dmg increased more with true magic or additional magic dmg?
Its like 45
well with demons glee its a true 8 true with demons glee even BEFORE the poison
yeah im excited seems like afun build for arena
Can someone trade a Fulgor with me for a chest and a spectral wallet? A Fulgor is my dream!
how long is a season usually? like how many more weeks in this season
Nobody knows, it's always a surprise, even for the developers.
I keep killing the stingray, and after about 40 attempts, still no eggs.
I even know how many times she poops a day.
quest
Since rogue wins pretty much any engagement no matter what, doing unlimited damage for free while invis and having unlimited mobility, do you just not play at a certain point or
I get where you are coming from. But unless they are super sweaty, they can be easy to kill for my melee wizard. Tho I cant say Id beat him in every class. Id say that comes simply from my lack of skill. Just takes learning their bs on how to fight em. If it wasnt for ignite, zap, and a bonk from quartermaster. Or sorcerer bs. I suck against em.
How do I go about learning bosses as a new player? Im learning ghost king right now but every time im halfway through it 5 different people show up
try pve yet? Or is that still not okay?
There’s no way to guarantee soloing a boss, you would have to learn via PvE or Normal and pray no one comes
I didn’t think I was gonna be that guy but I’m lowkey not that hype to play if the maps are gonna stay random atp
And I even like all the HR maps, I just wanna be able to pick the one I play on
the headshot muti is way too high
They reduced it already, let it be. Its absolutely stupid to have to headshot someone 3 to 5 times like it was before. 2 to 3 headshots is good
why does it wipe every season?
Keeps the economy fresh, new rewards each HR Season, not everyone will have the bis
75% bonus on headshot is insane and this game is not nearly good enough to require that level of precision. hitting someone six times and then getting two tapped in trash
I dont understand the first part. But it doesnt take 6 headshots to kill, you must be hitting arms and body. Aim for the head yourself, dodge, kite. Improve.
yeah thats the issue, servers are trash, headshots are 50% luck most of the time and now mean the difference between having to hit someone six times or twice
I think the game is best shapes its ever been. I just wish they would remove true damage bs
We should make rogues move faster than anyone, do more than twice the dps at no cost, be unhittable
yeah and lets give them poison MWahahahaha
And TWO jumps lol f the players
is teaming forbidden in normal ?
not bannable i dont think, so no
Wdym headshots are lucky 🤣
bro think hes faker

why does arena go away and come back??
why my shit keep "stopping abruptly"
bc you shouldnt have fun for longer then 3 days
I became a skeleton, and hit a player a MAXIMUM of like 4 times, maybe 5. Why does the quest say 43/25 like what?
What are you actually questioning here
You needed 25 damage, you did 43
Can you not turn it in?
Oh. I thought it was Hits.
I can't read apparently, TY.
Ah, no, 25 hits would be a crazy quest lol
I wanna start bossing what boss should i start at? Im thinking cyclops or troll nbecause i love qeueing caves and their moves seem easy and simple
is spellbook better or magic staff? both same rarity
That will be a good starting point, after that, moving onto Ruins and subsequently Crypts/Inferno is nice too
Check the stats of item and determine that stats it’s important for your needs
i mean staff stats look better but i see so many creators use spellbook rather
Troll is probably the easiest to learn on most classes
after that I'd go either Cyclops if you don't mind the RNG of the rocks or Spectral Knight
Spell book provides faster casting than Staff
What are some drops i can get from troll/cyclops and what do they sell for? And what colour loot do they drop because if its less than 1.5k then ill just stick to barnacle farming on water map
I don’t recall the price but Troll Pelt fetch a good amount of price, other than that, you got the horde to loot, also dependent on whether you are farming them in Adventure/Normal/High Roller
Troll pelt is the big ticket item for troll, sells for around 4.6-4.7k
is anyone else having major lag/ dsync issues rn
God, it is so damned funny that a player mob can trick other players that don't know about the mechanic. Dude expected my skeleton to not re-swing that fast lol
Rogues seriously ruin solos. So boring
Can you elaborate? There's a few different ways to play rogue and they have different things people could take issue with
Always have always will and cheaters love rogue
okay ty
Is it just me or do you guys also get the message that you need to update windows to launch dad?
why does matchmaking take year..5 mins over still searching
Do they? The handful of confirmed cheaters I've ran into were on Fighter and Ranger, though that was quite a while ago
Ranger sounds crazy too but rogue is much more balanced for solos
Well I think the big reason they were running those classes were for the ranged attacks
Hand crossbow is nice but don't have very good ttk lol
They just sit next to groups and third party perfect time
let me just say guys its not the class rogue thats good its the player behind the class with his little boxes while in invisible just projecting you xD
Well thankful the amount of cheaters I've seen is a lot less than it was back in like season 4
Only because the ac bans literally ppl with high pings i wouldn't doubt it
Ya play tests were the worse
can't say I was good enough at the game to tell the difference between cheaters and just people who were better than me back then lol
i feel like the game is on a good state right now honestly
Only caveats are mild balancing issues with rogue and sorcerer (as has been for a couple months) and giving more HR incentives to not have everyone moshing on blue norms
aside from this ya'll know if the technical support even works or helps anyone?
it is interesting how strong fighter is in their current state though; mostly due to the current meta being high speed dps characters like rogue bard and ranger
I think I've only used that once a LONG time ago, don't even remember what my problem was
did they respond?
it works ,just has a decent delay, about 2 days
let me check my emails, be right back
When they find you in the dark or team
U never saw me and faker in the same room
I don't see an email from support, but now that I'm looking through my old emails I remember the issue was that I bought my buddy premium and it wasn't going through
I know he's got premium now but I know a lot of people were having the same issue so I think IM fixed it regardless of my ticket
Is slayer fighter good for bossing?
Yeah, if you kite well, and play it well, it can decimate bosses
okay
rogue needs changed man. its balanced in trios but so busted in solos/duos. cant touch a boss without 2 kitted rogues running at 330
330 MS rogue spamming kabillion throwing knives at you, double jumping like super mario, shooting crossbow bolts and if landed making you bleed
thank you for lmk bro so about how long from that email you made did it take them to respond?
What does spectral hilt do?
Hilts spectrally
Ive seen a weapon called sovereign ghostblade is it used to craft that?
Anyone wanna run some PvE Spec Knight?
fellas, where can i look for info, or a map, for plant spawns?
NO BUT GOBLIN CAVES 4 TIMES IN A ROW IS SO CHILL
THANK YOU IRON MACE
TAKE AWAY THIS DOGSHT RANDOM DUNGEON ALREADY PLEASE
or at least make it a map rotation, that'd be nice
Im actually gonna lose my mind getting these caves on repeat
crash out queen
Its random :) just deal with it or play norms
it doesnt say that on the stats tho how does one know these differences?
obviously its random. "the game design is shit, just go play a mode where they cripple the gear you can bring in :)"
you have a hole in your brain the size of a cantaloupe im afraid
The game design isnt shit :)
oh mb you're right, thank you for helping me see the errors in my judgement bonkking
Through testing, bring a spell book and staff into PvE mode, test em out
wtf is this stupid concept of bossing with easy grief around and things
Anyone know what the bone powder is for?
Its called "made to not be an easy time"
but easy for griefer. and no big reward as i can see normal or hr
Its not easier for the griefer. Cause if they wait too long theres gon a be no time to loot
goblin warrior + goblin mage buff is insane in faustian bargain, am having lots of fun
Why does high roller Q in EU take so much time...
There's crazy rewards in hr lmfao
listen buddy, u gotta embrace the cringe. play rogue, hide the whole game in the boss room, wait till someone fights and low health, kill thrm, grief, make them quit the game
Its not that spell book has more spell casting speed than staff, the spell casting speed is the same for both weapons, but the animation after de casting speed time for staff is longer
nobody is playing the game
more weapon go through players more than iv ever seen more bugs than iv ever seen we just need project p3 allready i said it
Does anyone know where the "treasure room" is on the ruins map ?
Second layer. Module with 2 long rectangle rooms
anyone else got crazy high queue times on HR solo?
trying to do the quest for treasurer, do I have to get into the rooms behind the key?
In EU solo I have consistently had waiting times of over 5 minutes at peak (5pm to 9pm) for weeks. Its terrible. Also be increasingly laggy with getting killed by arrows from bots that are already dead
Thanks! Will give it a go!
Does anybody know if the wiki will be ever updated again ?
like how would we even be able to update the drop pool again ?
It depends, I believe in that wiki anyone can contribute but maybe there's no one to update now
it's been a while since it's been updated, and I don't really know how we could figure out the drop pool
When will we find out what ranked rewards will be for that season?
Anybody know?
Usually gets announced like maybe 1 month before the end of season
Ok. And when this season will end coz I lost count O_o?
maybe another 2 months or so
Ok splandid 🙂 Thank you
stop taking my loot
are servers down?
need offline mod for train bosses
someone bait the cokatrice in the boss room lmao that game
god bless SDF
3 minute of searching highroller lobby to be killed instantly by a bis cleric with a cancer perks
sdf was a good buy only the first month
when patch
two bugs that are annoying the shit out of me, idk if other people are experiencing it
the game has like a 1/3 chance of freezing your pc upon launch, only hitting the power button works xd
cobwebs cant be destroyed, forcing you to walk through them
Oh yeah the cobweb shit is pissing me off
yeah honestly I cant even play the game it just crashes my pc almost all the time, never happened in 2 years of me playing
Same thing was happening to me. I reinstalled the game, no issues since then.
im sure u get the buff, always u are holding a sword
Yo folks,
Experienced Wizard here with enough gold to build a proper setup.
Looking for solid blue (Rare) Wizard gear recommendations — best-in-slot pieces or your go-to loadout for high-tier runs.
Not looking for beginner tips, just optimal gear combos that hit hard and keep me alive.
Drop your setups or screenshots if you’ve got something nasty. Appreciate it
Notice how arc raiders(the EXTRACTION game) doesn't have a battle royale circle in it at all? Cwazy
search for thelorr on youtube
yea but are you a wizard
But is dark and darker an extraction game?
I want something to happen with a game
patch
sdf-kitchen
graysun streaming
anything
patch with truephys buff
something like that to make this game's grave bigger
I think they should bring back goblin merchant for normals just died to poison after I killed the rogue. I think there should be a way to get my kit back.
STR/Will now scale true phys/mag
Also all classes get a multiplier perk that scales true
i think truephys should be reworked to a true brain damage and cause it to a player who uses it. actually a cursed stat
how do i see other class servers besides the one i picked?
If you are talking about solo HR EU, it's probably because it has been infested with rogues since wipe. Now that throwing knives were nerfed, pretty much every rogue switched from mosquito build to hide.
There is no fun to be had in matches like that with 3-4 rogues and no counter play from any class. This wipe I played the least solo HR since playtests and I'm better off without it. But duo HR is a lot of fun still
Pick more classes
ah i see, thank you
lets hope new balance guy will nerf this playstyle to the ground
I agree... solo gameplay is dying because of rogue. If you don't like teamplay, you are honestly better off trying some other game or just sticking to normals.
yeah honestly, hide and mosqito rouge just isnt fun to play against
when does this season end?
im having good time killing min maxed rogues(im squire warlock) but new players probably struggle a lot as they don't have access to phantomize and they just push any rogue they see
Unfortunately, as is tradition with IM, metas go unchecked for 1-2 months, time in which a lot of players quit out of frustration...
We've been here at least a dozen time. There was barbarian invasion from first HR rank wipe, then there was warlock 2 curse meta that dominated a few wipes ago, a long time ago we also had landmine rogue problems, sorcerers insanely OP spells when it was new, ranger one shots etc etc
I did play some warlock just to try to face the rogue meta and it was pretty good.
curses, you missed some -> phantom -> door lock -> reset 
True damage resistance stat 😄
sdf justified previous imbalance with them not having balance guy or time to do it themselves
I doubt they will nerf rogue again, because it will kill the class in trios and arenas. Solos will never be balanced without sacrificing trios balance (or the opposite)
YOU MEAN CLERIC?
yeah but more like a joke as a stat to add to items instead of get rid of true damage and buff penetration rolls
I know what you meant just wanted to shit talk sdf for sneaking that stat in as a perk eons ago
is there somewhere in the game i can practice aim on dummies or something?
Goblin caves have test dummies
when is this season over?
why do people want the ancient eggs for?
it's a quest item you get a torch skin
month or so
Duos are 90% bums, games dying again
soon solos gonna be left with 90% bums too
history repeating
Any idea when the next wipe is, i couldnt find any info
ladies, where do solos play since normals is blue max rarity?
Arena should be self found only. With sick cosmetic rank rewards. Would give long term goals and playability throughout season.
Just let arena grant adventure points so they don't need to make 30 different rewards every season
yeah i solo self found something on the market
Why is my game pinging so bad? This has never happened before.
Casual make up most of the game. Why do you think there is larga queue on HR?
Of my play group fox I'm the only one who consistently plays high roller and even though I play a bunch I wouldn't have as many arena kits right now of it was ssf which would be lame
Or they could remove arena
That is the worse suggestion ever
There is definatley enough playing right now, I do see the same people frequently at my rating
If be good for the actual game but not the meaningless sub mode
Yeah so? You will almost always find players playing a casual newer release, doesn't mean dAd is dead or dying. I consistently see 12k players online throughout the days and I play at all hours during the week.
power wash sim is great
You're trying to teach then about trends but do you think they want to learn?
The player base has grown though? Or at least the off hours player base has grown
Yup
Yeah double checked the steam charts, even though yeah there are still people playing on other clients, it does show that from start of year to now there is a drop in player base overall.
Also PVE is only fun when I play with my noob friends who don't know the ins and outs of the content
why no offline mode for train boss insantly in spawn room wtf its too hard job for that devs? this feature dont exist in asset that mean it can exist in the game
Make skill matter again, make it harder to escape dungeon, lower loot in norms and pve
if u use cutlass with a off hand say crystal ball or lantern can u still use the parry from cutlass?
no
im very sad
why can the fuck can frost skeletons just and spam change direction while flicking shots. why design the faustian system in the first place no one asked for it
do something with your game, its been over a month since new wipe
We are in limbo rm we waiting for new dungeon crawling map
im waiting for new dungeon crawling game
Arc Raiders 🔛 🔝
LF duo/trios good at cleric, fighter, druid. Best class: druid.
whats the deal with the craftable wooden figurine
Player base did not grown
Losing 5k player each wipe
whens next wipe?
i dont get the PVP in the little boy lobbys i go in to do quests in the normal lobbys and i wipe the lobby im just trying to quest
is this really how a majority of the players play? are they mostly free players?
just came across a 6man group in squires to riches just all teaming together god thats so fun
like 1 in 10 players are chill just doing the same thing as me getting a quest or two done and going back into HR for more artifacts and actual good PVP
is it becuae of arena? is eeryone just going through the motions until arena comes back?
Sell for 4k to vendor
Is teaming allowed in s2h
teaming isn't allowed in any PVP game mode anymore
Nope that's just high roller to my knowledge or the Faustian teamers would be in trouble
what do you mean by that and also no even in normals you can report ive personally gotten teamers banned in normal lobbys after 5 people tried killing me for my cobalt kit
Any normals mode its a ok
They must of been sniping each other which isn't allowed
Yeah I doubt that, normal lobbies pre teaming only is bannable but normal teaming is fine
they were voiping about my kit and rushed me i took a cheeky blue port and reported them
When does the season end for High Roller?
Might still have been a pre team which would be bannable
What does the skin look like?
@glad thunder @zinc sparrow I've killed nearly 150+ stingrays in PvP over the past four days, but not a single egg dropped. How am I supposed to complete the quest? This game is so much fun, haha!
buy a luck potion ig
I've used the Lucky Potion for about 30 games and it never dropped, so I stopped using it.
Try HR... ohh wait the experimental map that forces you to quest in isnt ready for HR. L move Iron Mace
You straight lyin
There's practically no difference between a luck value of 20-80.
The egg drop got nerfed, idk when but it's nerfed
yeah, I can't even imagine who wouldn't want to fight against nightmare shark
W game
can anyone tell me where to use the mystic gem on the ocean and ice cave maps? i can only find info for the goblin caves, but ive found mystical gems on those maps as well
What do you do with antique coins
got this weird bug where i can open door kill mob interact but cannot drop/pick up loot, cant unequip or equip, cant move stuff in my inventory around, what is thi shsit
will this game ever come back to epic games?
Would be a bug if you found it outside of goblins
go to the dealmaker on the merchants page
fr? wild. Ive found one on the ocean map, I was kind of hoping you could go inside the whale with the mystic gem and find a hoard. That would be dope.
I was mostly asking because my buddy had one on the ice caves a few runs ago and i hadnt seen on that map ever.
Thank ya for the info!
I've had enough.
I'm going to delete this game and wait until want to fix the drop rates. Today I spent 9 hours farming stingrays, 51 in total, and didn't get a single egg, just to complete that useless torch quest. I'm so stupid to have wasted such a whole day. W GAME
Yeah it's a bug that was supposedly fixed too, would be ideal if you reported exactly how you got it
I remember the days of wow mount farming where you would have to spend months just to get some of the mounts which are effectively cosmetics
Anyone know why someone would rubberband on some classes but not others? I like to hop around what class I play but lately the game seems hellbent on punishing my connection whenever I play Sorcerer
After talking to my buddy again it seems he just said the wrong cave to me. He wasa in goblin caves so theres no bug there.
As for the ocean map, i think i got that drop back in the first week or two of it being out, so it probably has been patched already. I cant quite remember which mob dropped er though.
I'd rather farm naming items now than touch stingrays.
How bad is the stingray fight? I havent tried it since the beginning of the season, it seemed like one hell of a hard boss to fight
what would be a good build for sorcerer in pvp and how should i fight?
100% I've been trying to buy a stingray egg on market but no one ever lists them
One stingray egg can be exchanged for a Kumafang or 8 full chests. LOL
I am not the best with sorcerer, but the wind spells are vital i believe.
Once you get the hang of it, it's actually very simple. I spent about a day and a half practicing. I always used the fighter class, which was a little faster than the sorcerer class.
Why are there melee roles in this game? They are fodder for ranged lol
melee is king! You just gotta get used to dodging and the like
unlikely, and as IM, I wouldn't want anything to do with EGS ever again for their bs
Good to know! Do you use the longsword for it? I saw most folks using it for the sting ray.
Sorry i keep bothering ya with questions about er!
Yes, I use a longsword. I just start with gray equipment and a white longsword. If you're skilled, you can kill one in about 5 minutes.
Awesome, ill have to give er another go with my boys sometime.
Thank ya for the info friend! Sorry you had to farrm so much with no results today, that shit is brutal.
Good luck!
Anyway, I definitely don't want to hunt stingrays again, haha.
What bs
can I still pull names from goblin merchant
didn't know that was a thing..
last season I bought everything from the gob merchant every time he restocked and I never seen a unique or artifact...
anyone know what the pincushion is for ?
quest item
ah ok ty
dude the report system in this game is so ass what do you mean ive run out of reports so i cant report my teamate who just straight up killed my other teamate then left the game
Are they going to remove the random rotation before the game dies or they gonna wait the whole thing?
can sting ray egg be found in pve?
wow this games server is barkbarkanimalpoopoo
Karma has been broken for years
Like what are we doing, we still cant see teammates from half the games we play
server is fine for me today
are there any codes?
So what's the lowest a stingray egg goes for?
Your left arm
💀
1 out of 400
same game got dc twice, once going into second floor once when game ends, then bug where i cant loot stuff, fun
fr its so stupid karma i can kinda get its a player rep but putting caps on the fucking REPORT SYSTEM
why is arena mode put on a weekly timer? it is not fun to not be able to play the only gamemode I enjoy.
what's the current base headshot multiplier? 175?
yes
cool ty.
I tried arch raiders for first time (a 3rd person shooter looter extractor), and its definately in competition with dark and darker in terms of the gameplay loop of looting and PVP. Ironmace should get inspired by some of that game's features, since it's very well done and such features make darkndarker much better
what do people use to buy artifacts now?
ive been looking into that i wanted to play it is it free i cant be bothered to check
In the context of Spellplunder Rod restoring Spell points on a bonk, how many spell points is a magic missile, fireball, etc.?
kinda upsetting how dead normals is rn
anyone think the new map is ass and laggy?
water combat is ass but it's not too laggy for me at least
your right bro but yea it starts to lag for me sometimes when im in that specific tunnel area inside one of the islands
It lags at top right boat for me
@sdf take notes might sound dumb but this game should add a custom games mode for 1v1s 2v2s 3v3s and 4v4s and streamer giveaways etc the amount of things you can do with your friends you can do anything in a custom it would be dope! spawn mobs to fight wear any gear add your own modifiers literally endless fun without getting bored obv you won't progress with level or nun but just the aspect of me and my friend on 1 map just going around waiting to find and kill each other idk in my eyes i see that as fun asf frfr.
see who has better gear etc bro
Anyone know if luck affects rarity of things like herbs
When does the season end for High Roller Rank system?
when is wipe?
They finally announced the artifact giveaway, woot!
Water combat doesn't lag for my pos computer, but it is lacking and heavily one sided in a lot situations
Anyone know why bards can do songs under water but sorcs can't do wind magic?
how do i fight longsword fighter as druid
devs are stupid only real reason
stab him with a spear, if he gets u low just panther chicken away and reset
anyone else getting so much lag that they litterally cannot swing there weapon all of a sudden
the rubberbanding issues in this game are absurd genuinely
Arena must be online 24/7
the pirate npcs feel janky
Run the other way xD
there are a lot of teamers i lost my kit 2 times to them
Hey so question is gob merchant bugged or something?
i died right at the end of a round so i waited for the game to end and have been waiting for my loot to come back and still no luck, i even switched to another character for a game
if you play on PVE he recovery, if pvp is dead
hey so how is the game right now?, i wanted to play again but i dont know if its gonna be enjoyable or it is still very unbalanced and shit
he doesnt recover on pvp?
like last part
nope, only pve
It's fun to play, but you know, extremely high prices and impossible-to-obtain items, even on legendary difficulty you feel like you can't fully experience the game unless you have a good team of friends.
ok
You'll have at least 300/400 hours of fun, then it's the same old story.
do we have any market channel or something. trading post is kinda slow 🙁
whats with the screenshots on the steam page, they all look like they were taken at random times lol
I need a team but I can't join a voice channel, everyone is sleeping here and I don't have a headset at the moment
what you need?
Is arenas only ssf and crafted gear or can you buy your kits?
When is double jump and true invisibility nerf?
How do i create a VC party? There is no channel to do such
anyone know if this error "the connection to the server terminated abnormally"
love when gobbo merchant doesnt work and you lose 20k thats hype
Get mogged by pve
only works for pve mode if you died in pve with a 20k kit you dont deserve it back
Me when I fall to the void and blame gobby merchant
are the riddles in trade chat just a scam?
hello!
Soull collector warlock perk is buged?
i played along time ago
and all my loot is gone and im level one what do to get my stuff back 😠
mu account is fully reseted
its gone bro u got banned nd lost it all
no i didnt this is my first ever account on this game what type of dumb reply is that
this is my first ever account what type of dumb reply is that
Soooo, anyone else realize that literally every random potion spawn is a water breathing potion now? >.> aside from one or two clarity pots LITERALLY every potion I see has been a water breathing lol
like to the point where it cannot be chance, how do you fuck that up? XD
My friend is also having the same problem starting last weekend (his connection is fine on every other game). If someone has an answer or fix for this it would be greatly appreciated.
still nothing done about teaming lets goooo
was there a silent update for mobs like skeleton archers running away (like how goblin run when you hit them) and zombies on their knees eating corpse
why is short sword meta now? compared to spear/arming sword/rapier, for rangers
Any 1 hander is fine, main reason is because u replace spear mastery for purge shot perk now
i see everyone going short sword tho, not rly rapier or arming, is there a reason why or just ss is bis currently
probably because the pullout and attack combo is the fastest out of all the options
ah okok makes sense, ty for replying
has anyone been having the game freeze their entire computer after launching sometiems?
or is that just me
This game wipes every now and then full reset
this game is DoA
Revamped Fog of war for HR tbh
is this game like hello kitty island adventure?
is 1 true better than 3% physical power comparing neck of peace 3str 1 true on peace and 3vig 3 max hp on frost amulet
depends on your weapon, how much physical power you are stacking, and how good you are at headshots.
15 with peace 12 with out
Weapon?
slayer arming sword short sword
True damage might be better there, with that kind of attack speed. It can go either way depending on how far into physical power bonus you lean. If its like 30% or something, then you can go that route easily.
i have a good understanding of the game but lack little details in compares
@fervent anvil any reason to farm banshee? Does she drop anything like spectral knight?
60 % action speed
True damage basically ignores things like limb or headshot damage modifiers, or defense. So if you suck at aiming but can land hits quickly, true damage is king. True damage doesn't scale at all, so on slower weapons it feels bad but on faster weapons it adds up stupid fast.
true damage is often paired with dex for that reason
so addititonal is better for head shots
yes, additional and phys power for headshots. true damage for quick hits all over the place.
additional weapon damage and more phy power bonus always good for headshots
thank you guys very much
Does anyone know if banshee drops anything special
i dont know why i even bother with sorc or wiz in normals (lower gear), wiz esp just does no dmg without gear
What are you on about, I play squire 2 rich wiz alot and does good damage, either your low end kit and perks are ass or you miss everything
i just said lower gear.
What is lower than squire gear?
Try this build for basekit.
Melt-Staff mastery-Reactive Shield-Ice Shield
Intense Focus/Spell Memory 1.
Zap, Fireball, Ice Bolt (can be swapped), Ignite, Invisibility
Arcane Hood, Padded Tunic, Trunk Hose, Heavy Boots, Arcane Gloves.
Magical Staff, Spellbook.
Beefy bonk kit. Ignite before every fight, invis and rush if you need to press, fireball the ground if they rush instead. Jump back, quick cast and fireball again if possible. Anytime fireball or ignite lands, melt should trigger which makes the bonk staff do even more damage.
idk, it just seems like garbage. i'll stick to ranger.
If wiz is built wrong, its the worst. More builds become strong with better gear for sure. At base kit though, bonk is very good.
the club is so fkin broken you devs have no idea what ur doing shields do not work aganist it this spaghetti code is so bad
READ THIS MESSAGE: there are several people claiming to award a gold chest if you solve their riddle and give them an item. They are trying to get you to buy a niche item that they have overpriced in the market. They are making a ton of money scamming people
random but when u pop invis pot and swap weapons does it make a sound
yes
Why did I just get ice caves 4 times in a row on hr?.
Im done with this game for now.
how do people go into a match with all 3 rogues
she drops Banshee Sonnet or something like that, was a quest item at one point but I don't think it's used for anything this season, could be wrong tho
they queue at the same time with fill on if you're playing HR, outside of HR you can use any classes you want
play bad enough and poeple give you bad karma, have bad karma and people kill you for fun and you cant report them
dog developers
then why dont i got a red name then?
no idea
guess im good 😎
im just upset that the developers made it so that you cant report team killers or give them bad karma while youre red named
its as if you have a bounty on your head every game, teamates can wait for you to finish looting and then kill you before you escape
yeah ive been getting a lot of people just killing my other teammates in squire but for some reason they never go for me lmfao
i think they should make a class that gets pretty much unlimited damage, multiple invisibility uses, a dot, a stealth, TWO jumps because lmao f you guys
didnt knew that ty for info
dont kill me, just others
so sad getting a red name because ive never attacked anybody for no reason let alone killed someone
Rouge is terrible n broken.
depends on the player
nah they just double jump n run away and throw stuff at u all day
i main rogue but ive never won a 1v1 unless the enemy didnt try to fight
stuck in match is currently in progress please wait while we reconnect....... stuck reconnecting for over 30 mins any suggestions?
reset computer?
whats a base 406 luck kit worth?
nothing luck is broke
depends on the items, luck sells for more, check trader
go to random attribute, click luck
thanks
i typically just look up similar gear and sell for 1 gold less
FUCKING DELETE PURGE SHOT. ROCK PAPER SCISSORS IS SHIT DESIGN.
can u link steam account to ironmace website?
Is it just me or is the pdr curve so severe at this point plate armor just feels useless
yeah that shit is total garbage, insane to even introduce it to begin with but making it a perk was just stupid
True, made me quit bard
does anyone know why the games dying? i know theres not much new content but damn it got super dead in like the past 4 days
minimum purchase on steam wallet is 5$, bought it tryna get the fart emote, turns out its 3 shards so i go to buy another shard and I HAVE TO SPEND 5$ AGAIN?? what is this dog shiet system in place?
that's the true cost of a fart
i have to spend 10 dollars just to fart on my enemies
mid week, mid wipe. its normal.
Remove fart emote right after he buys it
its gone?
the player numbers drop about 75 percent when they take away arena during the week but they continue to do it because they knwo people would only play arena and not the actual game
but hey space map and cosmetics is a good priority right
Hopefully sdf removes it right after his purchase
why are you wishing such a terrible thing on a person you have never met
Will be farting on every wizard i kill hoping its you
I knew you already would nasty farter
bro thinks he's a hero for that too
im no hero i am justice
