[ocean wren]

i did post everywhere. Do they realy look?

[graceful storm]

they do the opposite of what everyone wants

always have always will

[formal moon]

Anyone want to team up on arena?

[ocean wren]

as i said, who remeber the day they remove random stats? 30k players to 5k.

yesterday 4k players, how many to night?

[tropic bane]

yea i was here and left because of it came back when they added them back but i never recommend the game to anyone now cause how you gonna make ppl look stupid for recommending your game by making it suck

[formal moon]

If you erode the player base slowly, the outcry wont be as bad when you end the game. Its like shooting yourself in the foot.

We literally seeded this fcking game when it got delisted from the steam store and ironmace could give two fcks about player feedback

3k players online is crazy

[tropic bane]

i think next wipe they should make higher tier gear have negative modifiers so that way squire is bis. (i am taking dev nominations)

[ocean wren]

same ^^

[odd barn]

I mean, 3k online aint great but its great to hear people are still playing it

im just returning myself after a long hiatus

[indigo ginkgo]

How goes the arena? I haven't seen anyone streaming it, it is a dead event?

[pallid hemlock]

absolutely

[sonic maple]

Let us list full sets on market

[ocean wren]

totaly dean because
WE WANT TO SOLO QUEUE !
WE WANT TO KEEP OUR GEAR!
WE WANT NO MOB IN ARENA!

[patent hemlock]

bro we had one good event and they make it impossible to play why t f is there no item retain and why t f is there no solo q game is dying and devs are still braindead

[vast kayak]

They were aware that we would not like this Arena format well in advance of putting it into the game. They aren't going to change it now.

[ocean wren]

Generally, at the end of the season, you try to keep your players. Not this time, premade only, cost savings are at their peak...

"This is the final Test Arena Season, which we are using to collect data." hahaha

[drowsy sandal]

We want to remove solo and duos. Pls ironmace.

[nimble jacinth]

why ?

[hushed ice]

I would love to have arena teams’ gear the same color as their team. Make all the gear blue for blue team, red for red team. So it’s easier to tell who’s who in a brawl.

[sturdy coral]

i like this. team cobalt vs team ruby

[sonic maple]

Also everyone should have power armor and access to needlers and battlerifles. We'll call it red vs blue

[spare flicker]

if you guys really wanted to test arena why make it so only trios can q.? if you guys wanted to test arena, why make it so your kit is gone upon defeat.? This event is currently only catering to the people who have multiple named kits. I'm not saying its everybody, but the majority of the people who play this game seriously, also enjoy playing arena: why split the numbers even more so.? full legendary kits easily have a chance against artifact kits: But only the super geared people are bringing in gear anyway: so its either squire vs artifacts or the rare artifact vs artifact: in which the losing team loses the ability to play arena unless they have multiple named kits.. How the fuck is that good for testing.? Also, if we aren't getting rewards for this season of arena, why does it being hardcore even matter.? So backwards man, people play arena for constant combat.. There would at least be an argument to be made if we were fighting for each others kits but that's another oversight I guess

[ocean wren]

they collect data, dw xD maybe 20-30 games

[dry zenith]

do you get the enemy gear when winning or no

[ocean wren]

no

[dry zenith]

thats so dumb

[ocean wren]

Ah is empty, price are at peak

[whole walrus]

can someone explain the hardcore arena event? do you get the other teams gear when you win?

[ocean wren]

With four days left, they should have left the gear free acces.

[white matrix]

No. Dont bother with it tbh

[ocean wren]

hmmm u can only queue with full premade party... you lose everything and you cant loot

[whole walrus]

WHAT

[white matrix]

80% chance the other team you fight will just be in squire anyway

[whole walrus]

thanks for the info, thats like stupid though

[ocean wren]

AF

i tried to build a bis kit on 2 char, craft like 150 item and now they said FO you cant play with

[sonic maple]

Squire to fights

[ocean wren]

i can play squire to rich, i want to play arena bis kit

[sonic maple]

Arena squire + green true damage ring and frost amulet

[clear crane]

Hardcore arena ❌
Squire arena ✅
Hardcore arena ❌
Squire arena ✅

[sharp panther]

paladin or monk soon?

[rapid halo]

Are traps bugged?

[pallid hemlock]

why does this game deem itself hardcore? no fall damage, tom and jerry fights with minute long chase scenes, doorplay scuffery, like i get what the concept is supposed to be, but hardcore? its a full cartoon comedy arcade game

[ocean wren]

ill try :p

[sonic maple]

b/c it once was hardcore but appealing to the great unwashed pays

[obtuse aurora]

anyone got pulv

[rapid halo]

Can anyone place ranger traps?

[fickle sphinx]

anyone wanna join me and a friend in arena we need a 3rd bc new updated arena

[vapid oyster]

well rangers can

[rapid halo]

I mean I think they’re bugged, it won’t let me place them

[vapid oyster]

wouldn't surprise me

[gusty sentinel]

games so boring everyone just ducks and kites

[lyric bronze]

what a boring ass week this is going to be before wipe, sure would be nice to hear your gear is going to disappear if you loose the game before half the community "400 people" pre make a kit they cant even run. this is now a streamers game where they join each other and smoke the lobbies. gg!

[crystal fulcrum]

🌋 🌋

[gusty sentinel]

cant even enjoy fighting random mobs that cause slow always come from no where

[pallid hemlock]

streamers aint swimming in the dogwater either

[wide reef]

I PARRIED A ROGUES STILLETO 3 TIMES, NOT A SINGLE REPOST, FIX THE GAME

[whole garden]

Game is working asnintended . Ni need to change anything. If anything it's a skill issue so get better bud

[wide reef]

Parrying a stilleto dagger is pretty dang hard if you ask me

[ruby wind]

rework rogue

[whole garden]

Rework this game

[ruby wind]

and the whole game

[atomic fossil]

👍

[strange crag]

Yeah w/e

[noble verge]

Yo, excited to do squire arena tonight. It will be like s2r middle rush but with less doors!

[undone niche]

This new arena update means arena is now completely dead. Good job DEVS! 1300 online and 1300 in dungeon LOL... step by step you guys literally want to ruin your own game. It would be funny if it wasn't so sad at the same time.

[whole garden]

Yo that's the spirit

[ruby wind]

in the beta of this game over 50k player, really sad

[atomic fossil]

f SDF needs data, why don't they conduct a survey instead of breaking the game's stability? ;D

[undone niche]

I paid for this game to PvP, played since test 2 and all they consistently want to do it stop people from PvPing. What is wrong with your team??????????????? Do you guys even think sensible thoughts????????

[sonic maple]

Lower impact power lower window to riposte

[undone niche]

These updates are just a joke to spite the player base

[vapid oyster]

I never understood the reposte thing, just make it so you can't hold parry indefinitely and make reposte easy and consistent

easy and obvious fix... as usual

[woeful topaz]

@vapid oyster long sword fighters would throw a rage fit if they did that

[sonic maple]

Where is my pregnant wizard hat i was promised?

[zealous wing]

But getting a free kill on a parry bot is half the fun

[pallid hemlock]

like mordhau? where you have half second full body forcefield? cuz i hate that, something where you can hold block but it has like a half second of parry time where you can counterattack if the block if its timed right

[vapid oyster]

wut

[pallid hemlock]

have you played mordhau?

[vapid oyster]

yup

[pallid hemlock]

are you talking about adding blocking like that?

[vapid oyster]

did I say anything about mordhau?

[pallid hemlock]

im referencing an established mechanic that is similar to what i think youre describing...

[vapid oyster]

[pallid hemlock]

and i was asking if it would be similar in any way

[fringe garnet]

Well it's also a bugged mechanic currently

There is sometimes just flatout 0 window

[weak sapphire]

Why cant they just do what the people want? KEEP ARENA GEAR. KEEP ARENA GEAR. KEEP ARENA GEAR. KEEP ARENA GEAR. KEEP ARENA GEAR. KEEP ARENA GEAR. KEEP ARENA GEAR. KEEP ARENA GEAR. KEEP ARENA GEAR. KEEP ARENA GEAR. KEEP ARENA GEAR. KEEP ARENA GEAR. KEEP ARENA GEAR. KEEP ARENA GEAR. KEEP ARENA GEAR

[pallid hemlock]

what does "make reposte easy and consistent" mean? bigger hitbox? how big?

[sonic maple]

Why do my missle get reposted

[fringe garnet]

Because it's classy

[pallid hemlock]

my bad bro i thought your idea had depth to it

[vapid oyster]

[pallid hemlock]

💀

❤️ 🤏 🧠

[atomic fossil]

👍

[pallid hemlock]

cuz a mechanic similar to mordhau blocking could be interesting, was wondering how similair it would be

it is what is it tho

❤️ 🤏 🧠

Do people expect IM to be able to CODE their ideas if they cant even think of any amount of detail in between the half-baked surface-level idea and the actual implementation themselves? like they seem to have to coding challenges already, i don't think them trying to implement an idea you took from another game is going to help anything

[graceful mica]

Arena this season has been Ironmace basically seeing what all they can do for Arena before the reward system drops, what works and what does not. I have said this time and time again though...they need test servers for ts so people who do not know start throwing shade at parts of the game.

[graceful mica]

5 days until wipe you are whining about gear? Not that deep sweetheart

[weak sapphire]

i have 3 artifact kits that i want to run over and over again

its not "deep" but its annoying

[sonic maple]

But why are you thinking you shouldn't be able to lose them

[weak sapphire]

because thats what they did the last artifact event

and it was crazy fun

[sonic maple]

How many end wipe events have been straight up repeated. Closest was multi class but they changed it favorably as far as rerolls went

[weak sapphire]

they only did artifact arena once from what i can remember everyone thought they were gonna bring it back

[sonic maple]

They don't do repeats historically

[weak sapphire]

lame asf

[mental tulip]

did they remove shit talking through typing?

[ruby wind]

The almost non-existent major changes made by SDF only caused problems, and I suppose that instead of seeing their mistakes and improving, they preferred to make minimal adjustments to their idea and ignore the problems of the community. The last change they made to the barbarian, giving him 5 vigor, made me look at that and just abandon ship

only play rogue. Well, I used to play it. Before that patch, I only saw barbarians with vigor builds. That change just made me want to quit the game

[vapid oyster]

can't send tells to non-friends I believe

[mental tulip]

L move, half the fun to this game is talking shit to people

[vapid oyster]

xD

[mental tulip]

Nothing like getting shit on, having it rubbed in, then going on a shit spree and talking all the shit

hole play loop of the game

whole

[swift grove]

W change

[vapid oyster]

I mean you can still talk shit on voip after you kill them

[mental tulip]

i think voice chat ends when you die

[mental tulip]

sounds like you have less then 100 hours in the game

[vapid oyster]

they can't talk if they're dead but they can hear you

you should know that if you have so many hours

[lyric bronze]

exactly

[mental tulip]

i stopped playing a few months ago

[vapid oyster]

been like that forever?

[ruby wind]

same

[swift grove]

sounds like you're hella insecure

[mental tulip]

there weeeee gooooo

[swift grove]

blocked btw

[mental tulip]

HAHAHAHA

[vapid oyster]

xD

[ruby wind]

what

[mental tulip]

bro was raised by two chicks

[swift grove]

ik he gets mad when he cant talk shit back. triggered af rn

[rigid aurora]

YOOOO SO WE GUNNA REVERT THIS SHIT ARENA OR WHAT????

[stone oak]

am kinda sad they removed whispering to randoms. watched a barb lose a full unique kit to last circle because i couldn't tell him i opened a portal in the same room he was searching in

[wide reef]

ragebait vro 🥀

i bet you speak unironically on reddit for fun, heres your fedora 🎩

[stone oak]

feels bad losing kits to bad rng and bad game design, especially after they said they would remove circle from hr and didn't

[swift grove]

its 2 clicks to never see you speak again brother. byeee

[solid cypress]

is anyone playing arena rn and what server

cant fund anyone in east

[abstract hazel]

The lava will save the game

[swift grove]

theres people on the leaderboard at scrapper 1 homie. I don't think the end-of-wipe hardcore arena event is very popular. you're better off looking for 5 others to queue with

[solid cypress]

are u the guy that sits in gathering hall all day every day for like 5 seasons

[swift grove]

thats me

[solid cypress]

ive always wanted to ask

why? is it hour farming?

[swift grove]

kudos for knowing how long I've been there too haha. I see people say "you've been here for DAYS" like lil homie... you have no idea

just making sure the gathering hall isn't empty as best I can

[solid cypress]

i remember when full lobster cleric was crazy to see and u sat in gathering hall the entire season. it seemed like you slowly built the kit through the season. you have lore in my friend group just so u know xD

[swift grove]

haha ty. thats what I do... whatever kit I've been enjoying the most I just keep building it better through the season

until SDF nerfs it and I have to start over

this time is was Glocktane. I had a 500 luck kit til his videos came out

[rare copper]

is it confirmed that there is no point in playing arena now?

only loot loss no gain

[lethal badger]

Some people are choosing to avoid it while others are still playing arena, but yes, no gain, lose everything on loss

[delicate steppe]

Damn that makes it intense !

[subtle goblet]

Just go in squire

[rigid aurora]

thats what i said yesterday when i was in gathering hall on my ranger "ThatsFine". Ive been seeing Ape in gather hall since early playtests

[swift grove]

I've seen you lurkin 🙂

[steel radish]

WAKE UP SDF. WAKE UP. Why would anyone want to play arenas just to lose everything and gain nothing? Not even a short arena award? Crazy work

[celest pond]

Wongfugui is Graysun

[reef kettle]

WIPE

[olive knoll]

[stone oak]

cannot believe circle is still in the game

[olive knoll]

yeah but they are planing on getting rid of it next wipe (for the to-many-ith time)

[subtle goblet]

Then it will come back for no reason other than sdf forgot lol

[olive knoll]

oh yeah its absolutly going to happen he might have memory loss

[pearl venture]

Anyone knows what's the best money making method besides bossing & PvP?

[sonic maple]

Ja

[upbeat swallow]

[charred cosmos]

Is there still a traders guild for big purchases? Can someone dm me an invite? I got robbed for 8 full for a sting ray egg and I didnt even know there was a traders guild. I dont use trade a lot and ive never made a big purchase like that.

[random cargo]

traders guild doesnt do middlemen anymore because too many scammers

[random cargo]

big purchases are payed in db, if u wanna buy whole kits idk you have to trust em

[broken ferry]

[trail flame]

any one having issues with launching the game? i updated try and play and nothing happens

[spare flicker]

wdym they dont mm? they still have a whole request a fence function last time i looked? Pretty sure #findafence is still active if nothing else

[random cargo]

im pretty sure a whole bunch of ppl got scammed and they said something about it a couple of months ago

[nova ridge]

I have not touched the game since sorcerer released. Are the game updates still bad? Any new major updates since sorcerer was added? (like new classes or new gamemodes?) Thank you!

[random cargo]

water map

[stone oak]

sorc nerfed, druids and rogues running rampant, water map suck, barb is really good now

[trail flame]

code 21?

[nova ridge]

so just more floundering with game balance lol

[stone oak]

yeah but now its been like 6 or 8 weeks since they even tried

[stone oak]

restart steam, restart pc, verify files

[trail flame]

will try ty

[runic yacht]

I see a bunch of ppl talking about arenas do you not keep the self found/crafted stuff anymore?

[crimson grotto]

So leave it up to devs to fuck up arena the only thing a lot of people play the game for

[crimson grotto]

Everything lost after one loss in arena

[timber imp]

wipe is happening in a few days anyway

[upbeat haven]

stop excusing bad ideas

[scarlet widget]

[charred cosmos]

Thank you so much for the information!

[umbral crane]

Is there anyway To Change character names without losing The HR cosmetics?

[pallid hemlock]

they might have walked across a luxurious dinner recently, you never know

[abstract hazel]

Maybe the real wipe was the friends we made along the way 🥺

[topaz coyote]

Game dead ahhaha

[gusty sentinel]

if they fix luck game might be able to revive

[pallid hemlock]

they need to fix so much more

[gusty sentinel]

game will always be dog doodoo might aswell fix stuff that matters like luck and drop a new map every wipe

[pallid hemlock]

well luck fix is just number tweaking, their best ability....

[marble magnet]

Looking forwards to seeing what comes out next season/wipe; gotten as many triumph levels as I’m gonna for this season, so mostly just waiting as the last few days tick by

[pearl venture]

Does the game feel a little to dark or is it just me

[azure hawk]

When Druid invincible form

[stone oak]

would be cool if they at least told us stat was dead and maybe pulled it form the pool so items dont roll it, since it actually doesn't work

[hallow hatch]

do you lose items that you take into the arena if they are not found by you?\

[stone oak]

you lose them if you lose the match no matter what rn

[hallow hatch]

does the other team get the items you had?

[stone oak]

nope

no gain, just throwing gear away

[hallow hatch]

lmao whos idea was that

[stone oak]

our brilliant leader of course, the one true SDF and gang

[viral storm]

lf someone to join me and my duo for arena with bis. We have barb lad and ranger with pesti trident as the comp

[naive wind]

Just came back to the game. what tf is the new arena change? Watttttt??? Can some1 explain?

[keen mauve]

End of wipe "event", you lose gear upon defeat, gear limit removed (you can bring artifacts), only trio premades allowed

[quick flare]

so st00pid

[clear pendant]

nanyuan15 cheating in eu solos

[silver smelt]

Show me

[vague narwhal]

hey, they fix arena yet?

[leaden peak]

when its the wipe

[vague narwhal]

bruh

[leaden peak]

??

[silver smelt]

In 5 days

[leaden peak]

peak lets see if we acctuly get our class this time

[pallid hemlock]

what class? monk?

[leaden peak]

yea as they said on dev talk stream

[rigid needle]

They did not say that 😭

Monk is not this season

[leaden peak]

they said monk class next seasson

[silver smelt]

Read #sdfs-kitchen

[leaden peak]

idk guess they just lie then when they litterly said they where going to do so on dev stream lol

[vague quest]

https://tenor.com/view/how-it-feels-when-you-meme-nanami-jjk-gif-10683277372535996893

no gifs in game-discussion

[leaden peak]

idk i enjoy the first 3 weeks of wipe then wait for the next one lol

[faint spindle]

Does BOC benefit from gear with headshot bonus?

[rigid needle]

or you're wrong

you know thats possible too right

[glacial sequoia]

if the devs said so, that doesn't make him wrong

you know that's how that works right

[leaden peak]

idk attlest they said they will fix the ratting problems seems near pointless to bring gear to get hunted down by 12 squire kit druids

[rigid needle]

but they didnt

[glacial sequoia]

i have the receipt

[cosmic spruce]

is the game already dead?

[glacial sequoia]

yeah

[abstract hazel]

Wipe will save it don’t worry 😼

[solid saddle]

No we still waiting for the wipe to make or break like sdf said

[odd barn]

What if I just like killing skellies and extracting?

[whole trail]

They said monk would be after this next season. So at least 3 to 5 more months for monk.

[odd barn]

Honestly, only complaint about the game for me at this time is just that they could be doing more marketing, and that there should be a quick join option to help mitigate playerbase separation for those concerned about that

🐠

[nova brook]

The goblin merch doesn't give you back your stuff no more?

[odd barn]

Another fish! 🐠

[nova brook]

[odd barn]

[odd barn]

Really?

[whole trail]

Only in normal PvE

[nova brook]

😢

[odd barn]

Lol that's fair

PvE is PvE, gobbos got your gold fair and square

Player Report - ID: shachuan55
Player ID: shachuan55
Description:
I am reporting this player for suspicious behavior. As shown in the video, he used a protection potion and activated his skills in advance, then landed a precise hit on me—all without having line of sight or any audio cues of my location.
Could the administrators please review this footage and ban this account?

https://gofile.io/d/SOFfnc

[manic ravine]

this game also need to punish teamer in solos WAAAAY harder . This sucks

[glacial sequoia]

@nimble parcel found your alt

[copper bronze]

How is a Level 300+ reputation player still allowed to cheat? He pre-potted and pre-skilled with zero information on my location—no sound, no line of sight—and then hit me with 100% precision. This is a blatant use of wallhacks/ESP. Administrators, please review the video and ban this account right away.

[glacial sequoia]

upgrade to premium to view your video, thanks, don't think i will

[copper bronze]

You can view it even without upgrading.

[flat granite]

anyone know where dreadspine are in inferno? i know there is one in demon throne but any others??

[copper bronze]

How can I contact the administrators directly? This player is a blatant cheater and needs to be banned immediately. Here is the evidence.

[glacial sequoia]

they don't care

you beat them by not logging into their product again

[indigo ginkgo]

Ban youself first, see how that works, then you can apply it to others.

[copper bronze]

Suspect ID: shachuan55
Video Evidence: https://gofile.io/d/SOFfnc
Description of the incident:
In the attached video, this player used a protection potion and activated his skills well before he had any line of sight or audio cues of my position. Most importantly, I was invisible at the time, yet he tracked me perfectly and landed a precise headshot with his very first strike. There is no way a legitimate player could have known my exact location and head height while I was invisible and silent.
Additional Note:
This player is a long-term cheater. Despite his account having a Reputation Level of 300+, it is evident that he has been using third-party software (Wallhacks/ESP and Aimbot) for a long time to maintain his stats. High seniority should not be a shield for persistent cheating.
Request:
I urge the administrators to review this footage and permanently ban this account immediately to protect the integrity of the game. Thank you.

[glacial sequoia]

i think you're more upset that you guys are from the same country and you're all, ' how could my fellow countryman do this to me '

[copper bronze]

This has nothing to do with nationality. Your comments are discriminatory and you are unnecessarily bringing politics into the game. Instead of caring about the game's integrity, you are defending a blatant cheater. That is absolutely disgraceful.

Cheating is cheating, regardless of where the player is from. Stop using racist assumptions and politics to distract from the evidence. It’s pathetic that you’d rather side with a hacker than support a fair gaming environment for everyone.

[glacial sequoia]

i'm siding with ironmace being willing to ignore any and everybody

that includes you yes

sorry

not

i'll state again that they do not care,
and that you can beat cheaters by not logging in

[short sleet]

Please contact the official support team which you can find here: https://darkanddarker.com/support/contact.

this thing do look really sus

[swift grove]

said it better than I could have. this is the only right take when it comes to cheating

[short sleet]

but why your game looks so bright

[swift grove]

looks like typical max brightness to me with "Game and UI" checked. I check "Game Only" because I cant stand the inventory page looking washed out like that

[copper bronze]

This is an Nvidia filter; it makes me nervous if the game screen is too dark.

[swift grove]

might look alot different on your end. I dont use any filters and this looks about as bright as mine. your colors are a bit warmer but the shadows dont look too illuminated compared to what I see

[short sleet]

ok

but yeah

respect for reporting cheaters

[short sleet]

maybe put it on 720p instead 1440p60

[swift grove]

not exactly a good look for the wardens to scrutinize the person reporting the cheater more closely than the actual cheater

not openly anyway

[copper bronze]

Thank you. I’ll keep reporting them as long as I see them. We need to keep the game fair.

[swift grove]

really doing the lord's work incentivizing cheater reports there @short sleet

[short sleet]

I mean if he is cheating as well he might get banned together. I’m just genuinely curious why his game look different

[charred scaffold]

So recently my game is displaying on my left monitor stretched out and Exit and Options are non responsive, basically bricked and can't touch the game, anyone have any advise or experience?

[marble ivy]

I'd say unplug one monitor, reset the settings to 1 monitor only and re-apply whatever settings you want after.

Into a skeleton and stuff

[frosty jetty]

im sure this is to prevents griefing, since there is no gear limit right now im sure people queuing with artifacts dont want to be griefed by randoms/squire kits and lose their artifacts because of it

[rigid aurora]

yooooo fix arena

Hey @glad thunder ill get you some new crayons if you fix arena i promise lil guy. Plus all the animal crackers and juice boxes your little heart desires

[white matrix]

This event is for the 9 trio groups still playing arena

[olive knoll]

can i just have a viola

[vapid oyster]

those players could prevent griefing themselves by simply... finding a group, I don't really understand why it has to be enforced by the game

[amber tulip]

Yeah i got an extra, come trade what is your username

[silent notch]

shieeet what about leviathan 😂

[vapid oyster]

"aaarrgggg the game let me queue solo and I'm incapable to thinking for myself! fuuuuuuuuck"

[frosty jetty]

its the last 3 days of arena before wipe, who cares tbh they think its better to have a full party when going into arena then so be it, arena will be fixed next wipe

[vapid oyster]

not to mention the fact that's there's already plenty of griefing in arena

[amber tulip]

Nah im just playing i dont got shit to giveaway

Was gonna waste that beggars time

[silent notch]

[bitter wharf]

If I play PvE and make money I can use that money to go PvP after are am I block from using PvE money in PvP?

[haughty light]

yes, you can

[stone panther]

if only regular pve would have this. Was hanging around pve helping out players getting their final quests done and lost a full kit due some toxic 💩 that left half way through banshees screaming session and collected all my gear to then drop and mark it in front of a third party.

[frosty jetty]

honestly thats why when i run PvE i always run no fill, cant trust anybody in this game 🤫 sorry to hear that happened to you tho. there should be a system in place to prevent people being able to give your items away

[indigo ginkgo]

? If I fill the Expressman on the first go, and go down another level, is he still full from the first leve, or can I load him up again?

[frosty jetty]

u can keep stuffing stuff in his inventory every level you go down

[stone panther]

yeh... lesson learned,. pulv, delirium, full uniques. All gone to a random 💩 in the 'protected' pve. i'm done until something changes. (which i highly doubt ever happening). Because this will keep repeating. Most toxic base ever. Shame about the good ones though. But this should not even be a thing on a pve mode

[nimble jacinth]

You can fill him up with goop on the next lvl 💦

[frosty jetty]

id just say fuck it and not try and help timmys anymore tbf 🤷‍♂️

[delicate ether]

Why don't they put the game on console?

[humble wave]

i cant play arena as solo?

[karmic flare]

[delicate ether]

Hhhhhhhhhhh make sense

[proven swift]

im tryna learn the boss but so far ive only gotten to the divine judgement phase once because of how rng it is

[sonic maple]

Damn you give a mouse a cookie

[delicate ether]

Play fighter with high magic resistance

You will beat the boss every time

[bitter wharf]

Do you get less loot from mobs and chest in PvE mod?

[delicate ether]

Only green more than this will drop the price if I'm not wrong

[delicate ether]

Of course

[proven swift]

are his tail attacks magical?

[sleek solar]

so are we getting the fun artifact arena before wipe like usual or is this as close it gets

[fervent anvil]

There isnt gonna be any more arena weekends before wipe. Current event going on is the end of wipe event.

[delicate ether]

No but the bubbles

[proven swift]

im using sorcerer to cheese the bubbles

i just got my first kill rn

[proven swift]

like the iceberg spell

[delicate ether]

Good for u

anyone else super excited for wipe?!

stingray egg spawns in the pile of eggs in that one specific spot that looks like its missing an egg right?

[outer grail]

cuz im on my last bit of hope, and if its shit ive decided id quit

[lyric bronze]

Game has so much potential. devs just need to fix a few things and advertise the shit out of it, so many dont even know about it.

[glacial harness]

Yes

[inland roost]

Is even someone playing arena right now? Barelly can find any stream, and the one I found has a 14min waiting time.

[sinful prawn]

are you sure you're in the right game mode, did you know that there are 24 of them

[obtuse crest]

Ironmace, please remove the spell cast speed debuff that demon armor has

[odd barn]

Do you get anything for running arena? Or is it just whatever loot everyone else brings in?

[gentle swan]

Let’s be real only time the game was fun and had good player base was when buff ball was good let’s bring that back and get rid of this 330MS bullshit thanks

[proven swift]

they did advertise last year with the free legendary status on epic

i only saw ppl calling it shit tho

and then they got sued also

[sinful prawn]

and kicked off of epic making anybody who claimed it a fool

EU lobbys are dead or wtf? 2 runs 0 geared people

NA servers are better, but 150+ ping im from spain

[abstract hazel]

Game is alive and well I hope

[odd barn]

It is near the end of a season/close to a wipe

Why do things wipe, btw?

Seems a bit odd

But I am also dense

[obtuse crest]

Buff ball? I wasn't around for that, what is it?

[cloud quail]

What up guys new to the game lvl 16 Ranger.

not a great time to be new lol i seen there's a new season wipe coming

[swift grove]

fine time to be new. you get a 1-week "practice round" before the next season

[cloud quail]

practice round?

i have a question im ok with losing gear when i die but in adventure mode it says it should save it

do the items need to have a specific loot status? i seen that in the item desc

[marble ivy]

Everything you bring in adventure mode you can buy back from the Goblin. (if you die)

[cosmic folio]

Do you need to have a three stack for playing in arena right now?

[gentle swan]

Buff ball is/was any team comp that revolved around buffing your teammates and basically bunkering down and fighting together. Everyone is actively doing something in a fight weather it’s peeling healing or dpsing. Typically it involved having variations of team comp involving bard cleric wiz barb heal Druid typically but there were other ppl that added other classes to that mix but it wasn’t really buff ball but still involved fighting together if that makes sense.

[gentle swan]

I think so

[obtuse crest]

So it was effectively just teamwork?

Coordinated team comps?

[viral storm]

Someone come play arena us east

[obtuse crest]

Like using ranger cleric warlock or something? Ranger for distance, cleric for heals, warlock for melee dps?

[gentle swan]

Yeah which led to more fights. Rather than kite shoot kite shoot until you get a kill or the enemy just runs away and stops chasing if they’re smart @obtuse crest

[cosmic folio]

yes please what discord voice chat are you in

[viral storm]

Nah bro queue against my team

[cosmic folio]

lol

[viral storm]

No ones playing

[obtuse crest]

Damn, that would be nice. Right now, almost every fight I get into involves trying to chase someone down who just constantly runs away and misses 90% of their shots

[odd barn]

Buff heal classes again and allow for greater sustain for other classes in terms of abilities

I remember those matches

[gentle swan]

It was/is fun for me at least because we always had the same 3 ppl that play our characters together and we learned the game together. We have videos of getting shit on because we made mistakes to us killing named items.

[obtuse crest]

My main issue is honestly rogues

I get landmined a lot

[gentle swan]

Yeah but I’d rather fight a buff ball team for 2 mins straight then fight a kite comp for 30 mins of the game

[obtuse crest]

I lost 3 seperate named kits that way

[odd barn]

I'm agreeing with you 🙂

[gentle swan]

Ohh hahah my bad most ppl hate buff ball so I assumed

[odd barn]

Buff ball died off because healing got nerfed and no one had the sustain for pitched combat

So now it's just kitey shenanigans

[gentle swan]

Yeah I mean rogue is good against buff ball or any comp if played well. You just gotta see if you see if you know what the team comp is before pushing a rook or clear the room slowly

[odd barn]

Bring old rogue back

[obtuse crest]

As a boc lock, what do I do about landmine rogues? I can't outrun them, and I'm often dead before my first swing connects

[odd barn]

I miss getting yoinkered from the shadows

Don't fight a rogue on their ground

They struggle to force engagements

[obtuse crest]

I don't ever know they're there until I get hit, at which point it's too late

[odd barn]

Torches are your friend

[gentle swan]

Then you’re not clearing the room/getting enough information before engaging/entering the room

[pallid hemlock]

look away from them and lean forward as you move away from them as soon as you notice them

[obtuse crest]

What does that do?

[pallid hemlock]

gets your head away from them

gives you a little more time

[obtuse crest]

Fair point, I like it

More specifically, a halberd boc lock with hydrain for resetting

[pallid hemlock]

just go slower and hyrda around corners

[obtuse crest]

What's the purpose of using the hydra around corners?

[pallid hemlock]

they shoot at invis rogue in range

[gentle swan]

Hydras detect rogues

[obtuse crest]

Can detect hidden targets

Just saw that, I'm mildly stoopid

[gentle swan]

Not ivis pots I don’t think just invis rogues

I could be wrong

[pallid hemlock]

i woudlve told you that at first lmao, i assumed you knew it tbh

[odd barn]

Snoopypots are best pots

[obtuse crest]

I should hVE KNOWN, GIVEN HOW MUCH i PLAY WARLOCK

Oops, accidental caps lock

[pallid hemlock]

yea a lot of stuff is not explained well at all

[obtuse crest]

Can't send a screenshot of my build, but any changes you'd recommend? Using the great helm for knowledge, Champ armor for str vig, light gauntlets for agi str, dark leather legs for dex, and occult boots for knowledge will. Got a halberd and spellbook, using soul collector, antimagic, demon armor, and vampirism. Then ofc boc and spell mem

[silver smelt]

What's the issue ?
Boc works great vs rogues

[obtuse crest]

Halberd slow

[silver smelt]

Send it here #warlock

[obtuse crest]

I'm usually dead before it connects

[silver smelt]

Take magic staff vs rogues

[obtuse crest]

For the casting or the bonk?

[silver smelt]

Bonk

[obtuse crest]

That was a very informative guide on platelock. Imma try it out and see what happens

Also, how do you get stacks with es and spell pred?

@silver smelt

[quiet stump]

My friend lost his bit kit to someone is adventure mode that dropped all his stuff. Discord keeps deleting my message. Be warned there are bad ones out there everyone

Multiple artifacts, fully socketed unique gear and rings, pendants

This game is full of toxic individuals. He’s never going to play again because of him

This is on you “Clervok”

[pallid hemlock]

yep. pretty much how it goes.

[lean pulsar]

Wtf

[quiet stump]

this is a toxic and horrid community

dark and darker lost yet another player today

[white magnet]

when are we gonna get the space map? we got guns, pirates, underwater combat and karate coming up. I want to fireball some aliens SDF please hurry your game is not completely dead yet

[midnight needle]

Ironmace please buff Ranger, we are a dying class and can't compete in 1v1 at all, we are forced to third party to get any kills

[manic ravine]

facts

[real fox]

hows the game these days

[manic ravine]

terrible, dont even bother

[graceful storm]

yes it is

[real fox]

understood lol

[graceful storm]

they ruined it

[prime copper]

How about IM makes bodies locked for a minute. It isn't however locked for the person/team that got the kill. The moment the person/team opens the body it is unlocked for everyone else. If a mob kills the person it is unlocked for everyone.

Still doesn't fix someone kill stealing but it would be a lot better than what it is.

[pallid hemlock]

ya. every game is gonna have its toxic players. the fact they are able to do things like that only accelerates and encourages it heavily

[still flicker]

When drops gonna start?

[mighty gazelle]

any womens want play

[pearl venture]

DID THE HARP NPCS GET A NEW MECHANIC ?

[twin dew]

can anyone tell me the best way to farm ap?

[olive knoll]

can you get artifact in HR adventure mode?

[swift grove]

no. HR Aventure mode is limited to legendary quality treasure and equipment (except keys, gold coins, and like krampus bells)

you can bring artifacts in, but you can't find them from the dungeon

[cosmic spruce]

Are devs and adf still alive? They are quite silent even if only 2 days left before wipe

[toxic widget]

What map do yall get norms pvp on?

[olive knoll]

thanks i am just tired of getting 3rd partied so i was curious if i could do it without getting killed by a rat in BIS

[swift grove]

not yet unfortunately. ive been spamming for PVE mode changes. join me if you like my message in #the-tavern

[fast heart]

Have we heard anything about the live Q/A and when its supposed to be?

[swift grove]

was already supposed to have happened iirc from graysun's morning messages

[fast heart]

O.o hmmm

[ruby wind]

I just got one-shot by a warlock with the squire kit, full blue semi-tank. He only hit me once and I lost everything. That's what I get for giving this game another chance, thinking they had really changed it

[olive knoll]

yeah devs are trolling rn i feel like they dont really have foresight

[ruby wind]

This is just sad

[swift grove]

more likely that a key feature of the next wipe is still incomplete/buggy and they're stalling til the last possible second before promising it in the trailer they already paid for...
ironmace loves a tight deadline. at least this time they aren't overpromising

[ruby wind]

I feel like there won't even be any big changes. It's been almost four months into this season, and there are no ideas, no proposals, nothing, just nothing. And if they do come up with those ideas you're talking about, I think they'll do it in 1,000 parts until next season

[swift grove]

monk, the live gathering hall, circle removal, tons of perks and skills added/changed; these are all things that are anticipated in next wipe based on previous dev Q&A and SDF musings. you're probably right about doing it in 1,000 parts, but these are all things that were promised to us long ago

[ruby wind]

You're right about that too, but I don't think they'll consider making changes and implementing them perfectly. Well, I don't really think it's that likely, but the other problem is that these guys don't think about how to attract new people, and that's the other problem. I don't even see any ads anywhere. I still see ads for Albion today, compared to Dad. They just wait for people to magically show up

[sharp night]

should i use curse mastery? People are saying its not good

[ruby wind]

Without those people coming in, they'll only be making changes for the few people who still have hope that this game will stay alive and keep changing. I just hope they try to revive the game completely to get it back to what it was in its first year, at least 20% of what it was

[swift grove]

they market the first few weeks of wipe. you'll see the twitch drop campaigns and a few 10k+ viewer streamers paid to play it. I'd bet alot of their marketing materials for the upcoming wipe include the features that aren't yet ready.

[flat granite]

glocktane just did a video looking into this. it hurts your overall curse dmg with high gear but not with mid / low gear

[mental garden]

anyone else have extreme, excessive rubberbanding at times? how do you fix

[swift grove]

i used to when playing on wifi. this game hates minor ping fluctuations,

[mental garden]

hasnt been an issue for a long time, now i am fully locked down with lag

[pallid hemlock]

it works fine for me on wifi, i play on low settings

check your server

[mental garden]

normally it does, i am getting "error 10" over and over, can't buy pots even without an error

[swift grove]

when I played on wifi I would keep a cmd prompt open to ping google.com -t
lag in game, check the pings and almost always it was up from ~29 to ~80 for ONE ping

[pallid hemlock]

everytime you play?

[swift grove]

upgraded the home network and ran myself a wire to the desktop, no issues since

[mental garden]

Only sometimes. Hard wiring is almost never a possibility where I live

I can tell immediately when vendors get slow and have errors

[pallid hemlock]

its not like starliink or something like that, is it?

[hoary hill]

where to buy a stingray egg?

[mental garden]

No but if it's throwing you errors that seems like a DaD issue

[odd barn]

Any reason why there's a wipe? Eli5 me

Like, with inventory caps, seems like it can't be a concern of oversupply

[swift grove]

many players "finish" the season.. all quests complete, multi-demigod, arena rating achieved, and generational wealth in the stash.
wipes reset the playing field, giving the juicers something new to work toward and the less fortunate/weekend warriors get a chance to fight them fair

we like wipes. it starts the fun all over again

[odd barn]

[sharp night]

what should i use instead of it

[swift grove]

you keep the stuff that matters: blue and redstone shards, any earned cosmetics, character names and fame levels (total character levels earned through all seasons)

and new wipes mean new cosmetics, new features, etc

[tropic dirge]

@zenith vapor

@zenith vapor

[pallid hemlock]

probably a bug with last patch. maybe wipe will fix it

[mental garden]

lag is excessive, and only on DaD. i can't move properly, i'm teleporting not only backwards but forwards? now? which is new?

[calm copper]

can't even play arena as a solo

[mental garden]

i can't even cast spells, they are getting reversed or cancelled by lag.

[mighty rose]

despite the next wipe taking place in 4 days does a developer seem that a update reflects one individual make it seem like there interested in making a game playable according to all individuals. since when does this not look like someone in sri lanka taking the money away from the bin laden princes. like what kind of developer responses am i reading??? please make your game reasonable to accomadate a reasonable player base. per say that you reset the inventory every 3 months, instead of once in nine months instead of once in 3 months and changing the wipe timer to the accordance of those who spend the most money on this game? what makes developers think this game will last any longer with such a wishy washy developer scheme

@mental garden get hip okay, this is a private game company and your complaining about a server tik that is the equivalent of 10 out of 100. its not even a 33 tik server, and if you dont know what tik means, then just quit playing, it popped out of asia what do you think is going to happen to your well being during playing, you dont have one

@mental garden ever wondered why 33 percent of your shots dont stick in tom clancys rainbow six but yet there blood spilt everywhere,,, its called tik

[mental garden]

zip it, lock it, and put it in your pocket

[mighty rose]

@mental garden its been in my pocket for years bro

[mental garden]

great, then keep it there

[mighty rose]

it still is homie

@mental garden tell me what made you think im targeting you homie, like i dont state anything that defends yur complaints, smoke another rock

Whos trynna help a brotha out with a ancient stingray egg lol

[abstract hazel]

Is the game good yet 🤓

[strong birch]

WHY Does SDF not have like a Community Manager who can adress a players questions and opinions? IF he had like 1 guy we could communicate better and not have problems like one sidedly deciding hardcore arena is just not it.

[placid cipher]

as if he'd listen to some rep more than the playerbase. that is sort of the issue, he doesnt put much into outreach, just "vision".

[silver smelt]

People not understanding hardcore arena is a test

[strong birch]

no one likes the hardcore arena the only allure of arena is keep gear. only data they got was from the 30 people who played what a success!

[silver smelt]

Even the smallest amount of data is still data

[strong birch]

hopefully they realize what this means🤪

[placid cipher]

bad data to disallow a whole segment of the playerbase for an "event" imo

[pallid hemlock]

entirely negligible data but will still probably be the base for all balancing changes for this wipe

[strong birch]

this is pretty funny because Why would they even test an event?

[placid cipher]

" January 23rd to the 26th, we plan to hold a special ‘Hardcore’ Arena season, that remove the item grade restrictions. We hope to see this event as the ultimate test of showcasing your power and riches. Thank you and see you in the dungeons" Oh how naive we where to think it would be different this time.........

[pallid hemlock]

"event"

[strong birch]

trash disguised as an event

[copper lava]

The hardcore arena should contain unique rewards like golden torch or crowned skeleton race. Player can start gathering item from the beginning to prepare for this final challenge. Maybe the top 8 team can also get invited to a live event etc.

The normal arena just can stay as it is.

[west perch]

@mystic crag

[humble wave]

cant even be loner

[copper lava]

The problem with this one is they announced to late. If there is going to be a hardcore arena at the end of every season, then people can start preparing from the beginning. Imagine the top team gets awarded with a golden skeleton race

[pallid hemlock]

problem is, theyd have to plan that and then not change their minds about it for 3-4 months

or even 1 month

[copper lava]

Yeah I would agree. Make it a seasonal thing. People would love it to see top 8 team battling it out live on stage as well if they go hard in this direction

[pallid hemlock]

live on stage... ya that could be a possibility eventually, if they get it together

"hardcore fantasy adventure" and instead its tom and jerry chase scenes through doors and playing ring around the rosie with any pillar on the map while you mob dump people with your finesse-based invisibility skill

[mental garden]

i like how windblast literally just doesnt work since the patch when they added cast time, i think it's worked like 2 times in pvp correctly

[pallid hemlock]

like super delayed or it does the glitch where spells are cast into the void?

[sand current]

How do you guys kill the mermaids? im pretty new and theyre so awkward to dodge

[mental garden]

no, it simply doesnt work half the time in pvp. not talking about barbs

[pallid hemlock]

stay underneath them. or maybe above, i forget, pretty sure underneath tho

[sand current]

okay ty

[pallid hemlock]

oh like you cast the spell and it works fine visually but just doesnt push them?

yeah they probably scuffed it. might be desync issue

[mental garden]

knockback doesnt work, and it seems related to animations.

[hardy hornet]

Gotta love all of 8 people in arenas rn 😂

[pallid hemlock]

8? are 2 people sitting in the chairs in the corner...

[hardy hornet]

20 min queues rn and counting

[pallid hemlock]

ya probably desync issue or some other weird bug

[pallid hemlock]

omg.... which server?

[hardy hornet]

Us east

[pallid hemlock]

try west if you can

[olive knoll]

Okay game discussion on a scale of 1 to yes how bad are the devs killing this game

okay i take the silence as a yes which is a correct answer

[weary socket]

This wipe was alright balance outside the Druid being a Druid

I played every class and honestly felt all was fun to run gear and such in, but solos like always there’s going be counter classes

Duos felt super fun personally

I feel like this wipe/update really going decide how much more life this game has since if they mess up most of the lingering players leave but if it’s pretty alright with positives game shall live a season longer

If they MURDER Druid a good handful of players might retry game like a lot of my friends (we all hate Druid)

[rapid halo]

Is there a way to queue solo in duo HR?

[pallid hemlock]

no

[pallid hemlock]

peronally i think 6oz into 1000lb bear in .1 milliseconds is very healthy for the game

[rapid halo]

Why not

[pallid hemlock]

Cuz duo and trio HR would be more solo queues with the occasional duo or trio

[final prism]

Arena still HC i see , though mybe they came to there senses

[pallid hemlock]

even if they did they probably couldnt figure out how to change it in time

[steel radish]

these guys dont come to their senses. they always fall back into the same trap

[subtle goblet]

Its less than 1 day of arena left, it ain't happening unless they open up arena for the rest of the wipe

[frozen gazelle]

yes 10

[civic swan]

what do you gain on joining the hardcore arena if you win? do you get the loosers loot?

[median anvil]

Good news. The devs have announced they're now taking the game in the direction of Nintendo's hit game Animal Crossing to draw more players to the game.

More penguins!

And they're introducing sailing mechanics to make the game more like Sea of Thieves. They're gonna clean up!

[solid saddle]

No

[golden scarab]

I have a question I'm playing on blacksmith launcher still if I transfer my account to steam for example the characters I have and everything will stay or will be gone ?

[cloud walrus]

hey, how much is viola rn??

[silver smelt]

A lot
I am gonna keep mine so I will be rich in next season

[timid tiger]

yo what do diamonds do

[vagrant fulcrum]

Can trade them at the Treasurer for any other gems to use in gem smithing for your equipment.

[west wadi]

5 db last night

[raw pelican]

y cant i play arena

it says that the party size is incorect

[sinful prawn]

they destroy what you want

[raw pelican]

what

[sinful prawn]

smashed your legos

[raw pelican]

so arena doesnt work

[quick fern]

premade teams only

no solos

[raw pelican]

oh

[sinful prawn]

so many teamkillers going unpunished embarrassed ironmace's willingness to not do anything about moderation so they've just disabled it

why do the work when you can just turn it off

do you know what i am saying

[raw pelican]

anyone wanna play arena

[lofty hemlock]

[sturdy coral]

ban red karma from arena

[west wadi]

Nooo
I like my color red

[sturdy coral]

but that’s how you punish team killers

[west wadi]

Bruh more often it's just someone who plays with their friends who wants a red name

At least half the cases

[sturdy coral]

kill red names on sight

[west wadi]

U'll lose the ones

[fervent anvil]

so kill all rogues on sight then? i do that already

[hardy stump]

feeling of pride and accomplishment

[west wadi]

I'd rather just use my kits in dungeon and feel that along with getting their loot

[hardy stump]

if you want to have color that warns people from you and allows them to kill you without repercussion, that's what you get, its a package deal

[west wadi]

They can try
People have
And lost

This has only been arena tho since I don't random queue dungeon

[placid trellis]

when's the wipe ?

[vagrant fulcrum]

Planned for January 29th

[placid trellis]

Okay thanks !

[west wadi]

If ur est its like 1 am on 29th

[mental shoal]

whats a good way to farm gold next wipe

[west wadi]

Blade hand
No one will be on that map for the most part
He's squishy and easy to do on bard without gear
And u get a 12? Hit pile room, and maybe a key with another 10 hits along with chance for arty from boss and supposedly an Arty from the key room too

Granted the artys r only shields though but it's still not a bad plan

[mental shoal]

in solo hr?

[west wadi]

Ye
It's what I did when I needed money
Every run was like
2/3k trinkets and sometimes more depending on things I sell on market

No competition + 30 minute map means u can take ur sweet time picking the most valuable stuff up

[mental shoal]

i see...

tyvm

[junior wyvern]

People still playing this? Hahaha

[prisma star]

Been playing for hours now, HR PVP in every server and i havent seen a single team yet

not even in PvE am i seeing people so where are the 2k online hidding?

[west wadi]

Yes
And enjoying it

[muted pebble]

East and Asia servers

[west wadi]

I feel like east always has players for ruins

Some more geared than others which is more active at normal times yea but there's usually a couple geared people on ruins on east

[solemn geyser]

someone please give me hope, when is the wipe

i want this game to stay alive and have a great resurgence a man can dream‼️

[west wadi]

January 29th 1am est
Trailer should be released in a few days before wipe too
Some teases #📢community-announcements

[west wadi]

Tbh this game isn't dying anytime soon
A dead game is like
3 digit or less player base and I don't see this ever hitting that

[silver smelt]

no way game is the most dead at the end of the season 🤯

[west wadi]

Not for a while
Unless they do some actually crazy stuff

[silver smelt]

Season #8

• 7x7 maps
• new POI
• removal of Dark Swarm circle
• new map?
• Expressman in every dungeon
• Quiver and backpacks
• Stash sorting system
• new cape artifact
• new shield small artifact
• craft items
• SSF Arena
  +60 new class features

[west wadi]

Wait wait wait

The cape is an artifact
Not a minor?

Also I'm like
89% sure the new map is a gobby extension
And u forgot the guild system is being added

[fringe garnet]

Yea.

[west wadi]

Interesting
Was the other stuff confirmed too? I haven't heard about backpacks or quivers

[fringe garnet]

Pretty sure what happened is so many people made submissions that were far too overpowered to be a minor artifact so they added one as a proper full artifact and another as a minor artifact

[west wadi]

Necklace artifact next

[fringe garnet]

No that's just speculation; and it's more likely that the lava area teased would be a Floor 2 Goblin Caves or Floor 3 Ice Caverns than a new map/queue

I'm really hoping it's Floor 2 GC

[brave jolt]

It’s actually 1am east on the 28th, according to the timer in the char selection screen

But assuming delays and 8-12h (patch) downtime, game may only be playable on the 28th evening or 29th AM (NA east)

[silver smelt]

I bet new class abilities will break the game forcing devs to make few more maintenance patches

[strong birch]

sdf said he would never make a second floor for GC

[fringe garnet]

never say never

[strong birch]

he said never

[west wadi]

Ice is supposedly intended to have 3 floors
But I just can't see it being ice that's y I'm still gambling it on gc

[charred veldt]

Guys when wipe

[west wadi]

January 29th

[charred veldt]

Cool

[outer belfry]

game is lost till druid get deleted

[ruby wind]

i just want the rogue rework

[opal schooner]

I want a whole game rework

[junior wyvern]

Hey, there are people into all sorts of wierd stuff, so i believe it.

Just not a lot of them hahaha

Game's at an all time low

[west wadi]

At the end of the wipe
God forbid

[pallid hemlock]

ya... monk-fisherman-articifer trios are gonna be a menace. Fisherman fishing for irontrout for free PDR while Articifer crafts MDR rings for Monk? its gonna be wild

[junior wyvern]

Has it been this low at end of other wipes?

We realistically think an all time low is a good thing?

[swift grove]

patch 69 would like a word with you

[grizzled meteor]

Pls no 3 layer dungeons was like top 5 worst things they added

[pallid hemlock]

nope and noper. end of every previous wipe had more than double the average player count of this season

[sweet parrot]

Previous end of wipe also had an insane amount of content being poured out. Streamers not playing DnD overall affects player count, and it’s a general consensus of the community. Overall opinion. Game isn’t where it was enjoyment wise for some wipes now.

[dense torrent]

How do you unlock the Baladeer or whatever its called emote, where you play the tavern music

[west wadi]

That's y I'm hoping for gc new floor

[west wadi]

U need to uh
#creator-application

[fringe surge]

whats the purpose of the cockatrice merchant, I'm most certain i wont get this done this season so i wanted to ask people that are in the know

[elfin oyster]

game worth playing now?

[fringe surge]

Since they added the water map ive been liking it alot more

[pure bolt]

I only did it for the achievement of completing the quest line. Otherwise, I can’t recommend stressing out about completing it.

You get five gems every once in a while, ranging from green to purple. It’s a borderline useless merchant.

[fringe surge]

oh that seem very lame for how much work goes into it

[pure bolt]

Very. Shoutout Hidden Leaf Village.

[fringe surge]

XD

[reef kettle]

the wipes on the 27th right?

[fringe surge]

the 29th

[fringe surge]

their is an in game timer on charater select screen

[fallen solstice]

there* dumb

[fringe surge]

oops XD

[fallen solstice]

tsk tsk

[pure bolt]

@zinc sparrow When can we expect a highlight video of next wipe’s content? We’re getting dangerously close, and have only seen cosmetic highlights from the highroller season.

[keen pecan]

HOWS THE ARENA GAMES? ANYONE PLAYD/

[azure hawk]

L

[brave jolt]

L

[lofty hemlock]

arena is ass

[keen pecan]

has it devolved into squire kits yet

[lofty hemlock]

ye

[honest lake]

Is paying taxes optional?

[odd barn]

No gifs 😭😭😭😭😭

[topaz pivot]

Well, the devs was trying to make gameloop and gameplay to feel better (like patch 69), but streamers cried and now we stack with a 2k online game where only people who likes to suffer (or streamers) can mentally afford playing. I wish in new wipe you guys really focus on making game casual player friendly. You can even copy mechanics from arc raiders, honestly DnD would become so much better.

[vast kayak]

This season's video came out while wiping and patch was being deployed. It'd be optimistic to think a video that promotes a new season could come out before the actual season.

[warm nova]

https://darkanddarker.featureupvote.com/suggestions/689857/suggestion-to-improve-wipe-schedule-and-server-reopening

[pearl venture]

What is the point of pve practicing bossing if everytime i load into the water map the storm circle is always closing over the boss !?!?!?!?! 10th attempt

[hardy stump]

yes, but you likely don't have enough money to afford it

[finite yoke]

Just use hp pots to tank swarm

[pallid hemlock]

cuz they need the circle to force people closer together so they can pvp even if youre trying to do PVE fantasy adventure type stuff where a the circle make 0 sense in any capacity

[pure bolt]

Swarm should be gone next wipe.

Should only be in S2R, the BR mode.

[pallid hemlock]

"hardcore fantasy adventure" and instead its tom and jerry chase scenes through scuffed doorplay and playing ring around the rosie with any pillar on the map while you mob dump people with your finesse-based invisibility skill

[ocean wren]

And arena plz :p

[remote stump]

so is there no definite explanation on how to escape the game in dark and darker i

[west wadi]

Blue icons on the map
Or blue portals that come up from the ground

[remote stump]

on squires to riches it was a blue gate and it did absolutely nothing

[vagrant fulcrum]

Some of them are single-use only, and once someone goes through, it becomes inactive.
Also, most of them activate later in the game, so it's possible they weren't active yet as well.

[elder kindle]

whats the one skin u cant use on warlord?

[pallid hemlock]

was it the drawbridge you need to lower?

[vapid oyster]

I feel like that would be pretty obvious lol

[pallid hemlock]

ive watched people be confused by it in real time

[west wadi]

Huh?
Wym can't use on warlord?

[elder kindle]

i was told theres a certin skin that has a messed up hitbox and cant do warlord and i wanted to know what skin that was

[modest acorn]

any skin with tails

[west wadi]

Tails count as hit reg?
2k hours and never knew that lmfao

[warm tendon]

Anyone? #druid message

[modest acorn]

Anyone wondering when we'll get a seasonal trailer? wipe is basically in 3 days

and the seasonal reward video hints on some sort of cave with lava ( background isnt inferno )

[remote stump]

yes lol

[paper copper]

People have said this game is going to die for three years. Still active voice chats, messaging in the chats, and 3000 active players on steam towards “end of wipe”. This game is going to continue to stay alive because it scratches an itch no other game can . When the new season drops there will be even more active players as well .

And some people like having a toxic relationship 😂

[vagrant fulcrum]

Each time someone joins the Discord server to post a message, it breathes in some new life. Even if the message is a doomer, that the "game is dead", they are unintentionally making it more alive.

[paper copper]

Exactly!

I know the dev team can’t make everything great in a moments notice but they have been going in a positive direction for a while now. The moment they make a good change , the community disregards it and looks for something bad to comment about.

[modest acorn]

YOU! WARDEN! GIVE US SOME LEAK FOR WHATS TO COME FOR THE NEXT SEASON! please*

[vagrant fulcrum]

Inserts Farfetch'd with leek gif.

[paper copper]

https://tenor.com/view/flood-pipe-gif-15999826281270001688

[modest acorn]

well played

[sacred iron]

do i need a team of 3 to play arenas

[olive knoll]

Yo im trading up from a common rapier to a viola and im 9 trades in does anyone want to contribute?

i have an empty chest and a really good grimsmile ring

[pallid hemlock]

Most games: has fall damage
Dark and Darker: crows. as a damaging status effect

[marble briar]

hopefully with the very litle participation and insane q times of this "Special Arena" gives them a clue how horrible this arena was

Your prob right

Sad but very likely true and final

[olive knoll]

but also this game is this game

[halcyon crown]

Nerf ranger

[olive knoll]

ranger isn't too bad rn

[halcyon crown]

cap

[olive knoll]

nah campared to some of the other stuff ranger is kinda mild

[sharp hearth]

+1 if they need to add solo/duo squire to riches

[olive knoll]

thats fair

[sharp hearth]

is there any channel to request it?

[olive knoll]

or at least bring back gear score dungeons

that was a good way to get good pvp because the most someone could bring in to the low mode was like a green ring i think that was good

also people couldn't bring in a full blue kit but they could bring in like part of one

[desert wing]

why high roller dead? 15 min timer and keep going btw.

[olive knoll]

its just a bunch of people in turbo bis fighting now in HR

[desert wing]

dang i just loaded up for the 2nd time since season started and was gonna go try hr but i cant even find a match lmao.

[sharp hearth]

@zinc sparrow you need to add a solo/duo squire to riches :(

[olive knoll]

yeah in HR at this point if your not in turbo bis you just lose instantly lol

[true yew]

when is wipe?

[olive knoll]

about 3 days

[sonic maple]

The rats disagree

[olive knoll]

fair enough

but the only thing is you have to rat on certain classes or a plate fighter will catch you which makes oh so much sense

[sonic maple]

Yes some classes have hyper mobility in this hardcore game limited by movement

[pallid hemlock]

like i get why with sorc tele and double jump and all the wierd spots.... but bro... the bridge over the golem/gate on ruins? that any class can just walk up to? holy troll devs

hardcore dungeon but you can go 6oz mouse into 1000lb bear in .1 milliseconds

[pearl venture]

Losing kits to the most eaistest pve in the game dying to a shark because a peice of my leg is exposed vs my dang face? come on man water map is broken

[vapid oyster]

1. deliberately queue onto water map
2. get mad about it
3. ???

[lofty quail]

they have not made a positive change in months no more coping

[pearl venture]

its called playing the game you should try it

[vapid oyster]

it's called not deliberately playing the worst map

[paper copper]

Alright 🙂

[vapid oyster]

you should try it lol

[pearl venture]

sure let me load into goblin caves and cypts for the 2 million time over and over

[vapid oyster]

sure lemme swim around in slow motion and row backwards on a busted poorly optimized map

kek

[pearl venture]

welp you aint wrong

[vapid oyster]

im gonna queue onto a busted map because I want to farm 3 days before wipe, i am super smart

[pearl venture]

why not just get off then if wipe in 3 days? might as well return for wipe if thats what you're waiting for. simple math u kno

[vapid oyster]

because I like fighting people

[pearl venture]

i like to farm. big brain🧠💡

[vapid oyster]

farming 3 days before a wipe is goofy af

[pearl venture]

killing players for doo doo gear also goofy 🤷‍♂️ everyone already ran their kits 10 weeks ago your late

[vapid oyster]

I kill people for fun, don't need gear

[pearl venture]

yeah i farm bosses for fun

[vapid oyster]

stringray aint fun

[pearl venture]

best to practice bossing can't just 3rd party everytime or rat that gets boring.

[vapid oyster]

[sonic maple]

Paul brings you peace

[lofty quail]

hardcore doesn't mean realistic 👶

[sour cipher]

lol 2k players

[lofty quail]

boutta wipe who wants to play when everything will be gone soon

[elfin fern]

s2r still fun

good practice for bosses you dont know also

[sonic maple]

Paul has enough love for all

[pallid hemlock]

they copied the horizontal movement (static walk speed with no stamina or run/sprint) from DnD but then replaced the vertical movement (fall damage in any capacity) with magic crows. it doesnt have to be realistic to avoid being goofy and comical. goofy and comical typically doesnt mesh well with "hardcore" like the tom and jerry action we currently have

[silver smelt]

❤️ 🇵 🇦 🇺 🇱

[onyx flint]

warlock is the most absurd addition to this game along with bard almost like a spoiled entitled child was in charge of making them and just didnt hold back on the "i need cheap skills to survive cause im shit" plethora stop nerfing og characters then adding broken ass classes and letting them stay i mean as a dev if ur that trash u need shit like this to play or cater to children who cant play then i understand why this games player base just dipped hard like a failed stock chart hr is adhd brainrot cause pvp is so unbalanced now sprinkle unbalanced cheap skillset ppl to the game and watch all the ppl quit besides the ones who been here since day 1

[silver smelt]

Druid ok?

btw pvp is most balanced it has ever been

[onyx flint]

never said he was i just dont have a issue with fighting him he is easy he just runs

u sir are smoking crack lol

[sonic maple]

All the added classes break the game limiting mechanics in some way or multiple ways it's true

[onyx flint]

socketing and making diff game modes did nothing for balance the playtest version was peak

[silver smelt]

bro skipped 7 seasons straight

[sonic maple]

Paul is the map genie

[sonic maple]

Brother wants fighters 95 pdr again and rogues that 2 tap almost anything out of hide and gear with add weapon true and 3 all atts on each piece. OK I wouldn't mind a revisit to that last one

[silver smelt]

I heard wizard ignite was 100% fine back then

invis too

[onyx flint]

Ya cause casting spells and running from everyones so mu h better …ooo oo or the bards buffing 80 times playing a fucking flute to kill u or being able to be untouchable after casting 10 cheap ass spells

Ppl who cried about rouge are usually the ones playing warlock

[sonic maple]

O ya din of darkness used to wipe teams. And Achilles would tick for 40 dmg/s

[onyx flint]

And theres def a type

[silver smelt]

warlock existed in playtest?

[sonic maple]

There wasn't a warlock then

Uh oh he outed himself! Run!

[silver smelt]

at least bro is back to play once again

[onyx flint]

You cry about that then i give example of what we have now after all the shit that was nerfed or changed is not better but in fact worse

[silver smelt]

🧠

[onyx flint]

Never said they was playable then js after all the little dumb shit like rogue being nerfed to the floor and then they go add ppl like that is moving backwards in terms of common sense

[silver smelt]

i guess IM is going in the wrong direction.
we need another patch of reverts and another vision SDF

[rigid aurora]

@glad thunder how did the arena test go man. Did you get all the info you need from the 20 people that played it!?!?

[scarlet wharf]

[onyx flint]

Bruh why tf is there a damn bot blocking me from simple ass cusswords lol what are we fckn 5

[slate axle]

anyone wanna ply hr i js killed a ranger and took the kit so im playing ranger

[odd barn]

Is good game

[sonic maple]

I believe, Paul can save the world

[odd barn]

Why so mad?

[sonic maple]

Sane is overrated
