game-discussion

[ebon cosmos]

I wanna say it's for the person attacking so they can jsut keep swinging on your guard indefinitely

[pure trout]

playing against bards is so cancer

[drifting raptor]

well unless you can show it that sounds unlikely but spaghetti code makes all things possible

[pure trout]

they spam you with shriek and surv bow and when you get dmg they do loops forever

[sinful pecan]

4 teaming barbs from a country that shall not be named are on ruins hr

[atomic cove]

No way

[ebon cosmos]

it's hard to find it on youtube because nobodys gonna willingly record themselvs breaking tos

[pure trout]

shame on "wbvrvt" starting a fight and then running for 5 mins

[atomic cove]

Country that shall not be named

[pure trout]

prob a chinese guy

also theres a fking squire rogue with pickpocket that does music and encourages fights then pickpockets you mid fight XD

[main lintel]

please get rid of pve mode and get rid of arena... we have arena in the normal game... where pvp actually matters. having all these modes just makes the lobbies dead

[pure trout]

FR im for bringing back rotations

lobbies felt full back then

but do it dual map like gob cave ruins rotation and ice maelstrom

[granite vigil]

Now that goblin quests are here. Do we have goblin recovery in hr?

[pure trout]

Try Nr.19 PLEASE gimme fabric

[main lintel]

mate they are making decisions that are only going to diminish player numbers.... they are acting as if this game will ever have over 25k players active... i havnt felt the lobbies since pve was implemented.... i joined one today to see as hr was empty.... i swear... there wasnt a mob left alive in frost caves.... what are these people doing... besides farming gold to sell to the other nerds

[sinful pecan]

dang they got banned all ready iron mace is fast on the draw

well 1

[pure trout]

dude 19 tries no fabric game is rigged fk this

[ebon cosmos]

SDF is willing to have a bunch of worthless game modes stretch the community but he's not willing to add one solo squire lobby because he knows that was the most popular game mode by far and if he brought it back nobody would play 3's with him.

[sinful pecan]

but still

[main lintel]

i mean yeah they are supporting game modes that literally do nothing but detract from the actual game....

[drifting raptor]

pve is like 30% of the player base and squire royale is 30%

[ebon cosmos]

Arena really is just for the streamers and people who wanna stream snipe

[drifting raptor]

it’s keeping the game alive somehow

[main lintel]

PVE is just gold sellers... incorrect... if there wasnt pve... they would just be in normals and HAVE TO PVP TO ACTUALLY EARN A LIVING...

[drifting raptor]

gold buyer mindset

it’s mostly people with jobs and kids

[ebon cosmos]

I go into PvE to do quests and level classes to 15

[drifting raptor]

the gold sellers are in other lobbies

[hardy stump]

pve is 16% and a lot of that is just PvP players farming or speedrunning quests

[pure trout]

john jivus is luck kit worth in norms

[main lintel]

im sorry... XINGPAOW%#$@#$2672662662 doesnt have a home or kids

[pure trout]

im getting very bad rng

[drifting raptor]

ni hao friendly friendly

[ebon cosmos]

The vast majority of people I run into in PvE lobbies are rogues or bards sprinting to the boss room

[main lintel]

that is all that is in pve lobbies mate haha

[drifting raptor]

i don’t run luck but people are saying it’s worth it for bags

[drifting raptor]

oh i’m eu havent seen one yet this season

[main lintel]

hahahaha join oce not an english speaker in sight

[ebon cosmos]

Can you get lucky enough to get chests from pve?

[pure trout]

i ran HR luck kit and got poop with 500 luck on bard

[drifting raptor]

i used to to farm bosses

[pure trout]

lost my gallant outfit with 90 luck

[drifting raptor]

i only do kick kits for pve

luck *

[hardy stump]

no, opnly bags

[ebon cosmos]

I just buy the lock potion for 150g and that's usually enough to both pay for itself and get me the quest items I need

luck potion*

[pure trout]

i did wyvern and frost iron key

hit both piles got a shit ton of ultimate and legendary sellables but no bis 🙁

[drifting raptor]

i just do spectral and banshee then middle pile and blue portal out

[pure trout]

never did banshee

ever

[drifting raptor]

she’s fun to do now since her nerf

[pure trout]

my rotation rn is doing spec knight going old rusty and clearing graveyard for the portal out

but its like im tryna be friendly but everyone wants my ass

not tryna waste time killing them

[drifting raptor]

that’s probably a great farmll

farm loop*

and faster than double bossing

[pure trout]

im not hitting pile on old rusty just getting neck

and out

[drifting raptor]

really

must be fast runs for you

why not pile?

make some gold

[pure trout]

no need

no first of all im writing here and wasting time and also players want my ass for the cobalt

i just killed 3 players in the span of 20 seconds

all on graveyard gooning

[drifting raptor]

ok

[woeful bluff]

Well if its HR, then you cant be friendly. Gotta be sneaky or kill everyone

[stone panther]

you can still be friendly, just no interactions.
raising you arms or crouching and going opposite ways is totally allowed

[ebon cosmos]

What's the best class to practice boss mechanics on? And any videos or creators you all suggest for fight guides?

[gritty flume]

There's no way they just pushed arena back by over two weeks right?

They just mean ranked arena?

[ebon cosmos]

in-game says opens may 15

[pure trout]

i think the chinese are sniping me

1 shield fighter and wizard just teamed up on my ass

[narrow hemlock]

hello guys i would like to be introduced to the dark fantasy world

[unkempt matrix]

God damn, no arena till end of month? I wanted too play the weekend when market opens

and not come back till next ssf wipe

[stone panther]

wrong discord

[narrow hemlock]

what is this about then

a game?

[stone panther]

being tortured by Paul

[gritty sorrel]

Aight learnt spectral

[pure trout]

i think they deactivated the drops for spec fabric on norms

[narrow hemlock]

who is paul

[pure trout]

21 tries i got 14 times the old rusty no spec

[gritty sorrel]

The torturer

[narrow hemlock]

i dont quite understand

why and how does he torture people

[stone panther]

seems like you are management material, try submitting your resume to iron mace

[pure trout]

its good that arena is not rn

you cant craft the good purple items

and ppl will be running piss

[stone panther]

workshops having been going brrrt, people dont need purple crafts

[unkempt matrix]

you can't imagine the amount of purple triple +3s ive found

[pure trout]

are workshops worth it

i havent used that mechanic

[narrow hemlock]

where is this iron mace and what resume tell me where i can get information about this server

[stone panther]

for normal people, deff not. For sweat drippers who like burning tons of gold for that extra +1 in their stat pack, yeh.
i'd say it is only worth it to reroll minor-artifacts like thorn shield or tanglethread pants. Not for most regular gear

[pure trout]

i made someone mad enough to come back as a spider an harass me XD

[pure trout]

mini artifacts

[slow scaffold]

Whats differwent now?

[pure trout]

wdym you mean the purp named?

those are classified on the wiki as artifacts but arent

[wooden lotus]

Y don’t they fill normal lobby’s like they fill squire arena I am tired of empty matches

[pure trout]

come ruins 1vs1 on spec knight after i clear him

[deft lintel]

Continuous matchmaking. The only thing you wait for if anything is other teammates

[pure trout]

attempt 22 spec fab incoming

[wooden lotus]

I’ll wait another 30 seconds if I can load in to a lobby with more then 1 player

[pure trout]

fk this game im off

22 kills no spec fabric fk my life

waste of time

[keen summit]

10 troll kills no pelts

[stone panther]

load up on luck. buddy got like 9 of them off pve spec

[pure trout]

who plays pve

[stone panther]

people who got fabrics, so not you

[pure trout]

spec knight is dead and theres 13mins left

[keen summit]

need around 400~ luck to match norms base chance

[pure trout]

lobbies are full of teamers and rats

ill do him 1 last time with luck pot

[hidden carbon]

Yeah can you guys fix the antique sheet That way I can play my fucking game on Linux again. I love paying money for something that y'all lock me out of years later

Can I have my fucking money back

Like no for real can I have my money back

[trim yoke]

9 out of the 50 attemps?

[hidden carbon]

I'm too pissed off to even stop at this point

I want my freaking money back

I know there's got to be a developer in this discord come on talk to me Where's my fucking money if you want to lock me out of my paid goddamn content

[marble bluff]

I played pve for a while because of these caster scrubs that run away and throw magic at you all game.

[keen summit]

damn bro needs that 30$

[hidden carbon]

It's the principle of being locked out of something in the market so fucked to get an actual PC

[stone panther]

dont know how many attempts, but grinded a few hours for like 3-4 days and got a whole row of them, just on pve. He also got 6 or so troll bloods.

running 400+ luck

[hidden carbon]

They locked me out of my content what's wrong with wanting my money back they don't deserve to keep something that they're going to lock me out of

[pure trout]

getting troll pelt is easy

[granite vigil]

What would be like the top 5 most expensive artifacts?

Something like:
Viola
Cinder
Fulgar
Cat
Zerk?

[pure trout]

yes basically

[stone panther]

ironically enough, 0 pelts. But a whole bunch of blood

[keen summit]

stinky stick and famine

[granite vigil]

Ty

[granite vigil]

Stinky stick ftw bro. Most meta.

[pure trout]

stinky stick is like actually so underhated

[granite vigil]

Why do people, when talking about trading artifacts, price things like "that artifact is roughly 1 deathbloom or 2 deathbloom"?

Like why is db a base for price?

(Sorry I'm new to getting artifacts this wipe after 900hours)

[pure trout]

smallest slot artifact

[shut mural]

Because it’s a 1x2

[granite vigil]

Ohhh

Makes sense.

So how many db's do like a viola, Cinder fulgar etc go for typically?

[drifting raptor]

much easier , less health

[pure trout]

okay im off im getting griefed on the boss and he was 1 tap

he had spec fabric....

game is getting deleted

[cosmic raven]

Solo and duo arena so peak

[deft lintel]

It’s still 3v3

[scenic lake]

Anybody’s goblin merchant questline dissapear?

Nvm guess you can only see it in game

[cosmic raven]

Yeah that’s whack but still better I’ll take it

[scenic lake]

My shit must be bugging

[brittle citrus]

Get a job

[granite vigil]

Wtf is a job?

[untold widget]

Do giant bat ear exist wtf

[brittle citrus]

Nevermind

[scenic lake]

I’m clocked in while in the dungeon

[brittle citrus]

I'm like ayonokoji

[tidal crescent]

What does the goblin merchants quest do?

[short siren]

How tf is Red getting 50k+ views when there is barely 10k players online at most

[granite vigil]

I see got a friend who watches his stuff but plays like twice a year

[stone panther]

more affinity = cheaper gobo recovery for pve, and a 'chance' for recovery on reg and hr
last season with max affinity he brought back like 70% of stuff on HR (if it wasnt taken from you)

[tidal crescent]

Nice

[short siren]

sure some ppl dont play anymore and just watch gameplay, but 50k ppl care about watching dark and darker??

[stone panther]

dad has like 10k 'consecutive' players, but way more that play. And those just let the streams run in the background to get the drops

[vast coral]

could we have a triple boss on the 2nd floor plz ???

[gritty sorrel]

Fuck it im learning the stingray

[granite vigil]

New boss is better to learn. Much better artifacts

And easier

[vast coral]

if only there wasn't like 5 peps on the boss arena all the time xD

[gritty sorrel]

Its hardddd

[hardy stump]

this is something a lot of people don't seem to be able to understand, its not the exact same 10k people playing every single day for 12 hours straight, its a lot of different people playing during different times, a safe way to estimate total active population is to take peak concurrency and multiply it by 8 to 10, more accurate metric you'll get only if devs share it directly

[clever sentinel]

new quests i completed last night are gone? did they revert the timegated quests? fking d0gshit

[granite vigil]

Just play sorc and push them off the edge 🤣

[hardy stump]

daily quests change daily if you don't claim them

[clever sentinel]

im obviously not talking about the dailies

[gritty sorrel]

Shit

Nvm not learning anything im out of gold cant buy heals

[hardy stump]

25 years on the internet taught me to assume the dumbest possibility unless clarified

[stone panther]

mine disappeared like twice today. Both times they came back in like 30min. (restarting did nothing), just time

[hardy stump]

if you can't do it with base free heals, more heals won't help you

[gritty sorrel]

I can beat Spec Knight with a bunch of heals

[rustic pecan]

quests are bbugged rn. Mine also just bugged. gna try and restart game to see if they reappear

[gritty sorrel]

Troll I dont need heals for

[clever sentinel]

yeah idk i finished them all last night but they're just gone now

[rustic pecan]

that sucks, hope goldsmith completed stays

[stone panther]

yeh, it stays. They'll just randomly show again in like 30min or less. Happened twice already to me in the past few hours. Including one I completed in dungeon but was 'gone' when i came out. It showed later and I could press finish, like normal

[clever sentinel]

yeah honestly now that i think about it i think i do remember this happening before, wish we could fix the backlog of bugs before releasing more bugged content like the chinese waterfarm map

[sleek dawn]

Guys is it true that game became good when paul took over sdf? Might just come back

[clear jasper]

Headed in the right direction id say still a long way to go

[hardy stump]

was never been more fun, thank you sdf for coming up with the game, thank you sdf for stepping down and allowing it to be taken in the right direction, I'm glad to have modern medicine find a cure for "the vision" in only 2 years

[ebon cosmos]

SDF had a vision. Too bad he was near-sighted.

[stone panther]

now if paul can stop with the tedious grindfest quests for a costmetic, we can all be happy.
10x seal of dominion this season (new boss, 10% drop on norms, 0 on pve).
exactly a copy paste from last seasons volcano tears,, like, seriously IM

[ebon cosmos]

Let's not glaze paul too hard now. We still have garbage ass balancing and massive desync problems they STILL refuse to acknowledge

[clever sentinel]

fuck fixing dysnc, time for ironmace to focus up on the Space map

[ebon cosmos]

What's really gonna happen is they're gonna say fuck desync issues, fuck new maps and just release p2w skins over and over again

[stone panther]

rainbow skin pregnant gobo when]

[ebon cosmos]

MerMAN, pa! I'm a MerMAN!

[hardy stump]

I like the part, where they gave MDR great scaling, and nerfed spells because PDR fighters refused to build MDR

[ebon cosmos]

fuck sorc

nerf their piece of shit rooting bullshit

fucking bullshit ass fucking class

[sleek dawn]

holy shit guys, yea Ill download it again tonight, Thank you sdf for finally making a real good decision

[ebon cosmos]

Just so you know the current meta is Warlock with Bardiche, Barbarian with Bardiche, or Fighter with Halberd. Aond one person on the team who can root someone in place. Like sorc.

[sleek dawn]

that sounds inlined with what I know when I quitted

can work with that

[ebon cosmos]

they're even more op than you remember this season

[shadow crypt]

i wish we can get spacemap before 2handers nerfs

[ebon cosmos]

IM PLEASE BRING BACK FUCKING SOLO SQUIRE THESE PEOPLE ARE BEYOND CRAYOLA EATING FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

[lofty hemlock]

crazy idea but items should fill from top to bottom and then left to right

rather than lefto to right then top to bottom

[ebon cosmos]

I just one time wanna get matched up with people in squire who know how to fuckin' count

is that too much to ask IM

[viscid oak]

Get some friends then

[ebon cosmos]

I have friends none of them wanna play this shit ass game. They're all afraid of the extraction looter genre

[minor saddle]

If you can’t 1v6 in squire are you really a dark and darker player?

[quartz pine]

"squire royale is too hard" wasn't on my 2026 bingo card

who cares if your team is shit? its squires.

[minor saddle]

It’s where the big dogs are squire Royale big leagues

[quartz pine]

nobody is offered pro contracts and invitationals based on squire royale performance. just play the game and have fun, its not an esport

[fresh canyon]

is there somewhere i can find trade values for artifacts?

[minor saddle]

Might have a scout watching when u play squire u might get recruited to a professional team

[gray radish]

Best place is probably the collectors guild discord.

[fresh canyon]

aalright thanks

[gray radish]

Do be aware that prices are gonna be highly speculative for the first week or so until the economy settles.

[manic slate]

Was there a bug or something? All my quests from this morning are gone

[atomic cove]

Yes it's bug

Have fun repeating them

[hardy stump]

such a relatable and common issue for the community here

[atomic cove]

Many people don't like wipes

The kind of players to stash their loot forever

[hardy stump]

many people don't understand easy come, easy go loot aspect and think in ARPG giga grind categories

[atomic cove]

I think there should be inventory and characters just for pve, so they can play as much as they want there but it doesn't transfer into normal modes

[gray radish]

Biggest hurdle in the extraction genre is always getting over losses.

[winter tinsel]

yes, or games like WoW where obtaining bis takes months so the idea of losing loot is crazy

[atomic cove]

I really wish more people jumped into this game

Potential is there

Considering playtests

[fringe granite]

Wait are new arena queues 1v1 and 2v2 or just how many people you pre queue with

[atomic cove]

It's like league, solo/duo and flex trios

[sleek dawn]

I feel like weve saying this potential for a couple of years now

[hexed lake]

Have we gotten a statement from the devs at all regarding patching performance issues since season 9 dropped?

[atomic cove]

It is there all the time, no other games do what dad does, and playtests were success

[charred veldt]

This has so much potential, man...

[hardy stump]

turmulous development, constant flip flopping, circle in, circle out, circle in, circle out, questionable balance and gear changes all the time, all of it deterred a lot of active people, and game offers nothing to new players, you either have willpower to scale the learning mountain, or you drop out after evening or two with nothing in between

[fringe granite]

I don’t play league, does that mean 2 people queue and 1 fill for duos and 1 person queue and 2 people fill for solos?

[charred veldt]

no

in league it's always 5v5

[atomic cove]

It means you can go solo or duo until 2600mmr

[charred veldt]

solo duo means you can queu solo and the other 3 are filled

[atomic cove]

Both matched together

[charred veldt]

flex lets you play with 1, 2, 3, 5 people pre queued

[atomic cove]

Yes we can only hope new big stuff delivers without major issues but we know how it goes

[fringe granite]

Ah, okay thanks. Was wondering how 1v1 arena would even work out without getting screwed by matchups and having to play a lost cause

[atomic cove]

Gathering hall if it ever comes out is probably the thing to bring new players in, or convince some more to come back

[quasi cloak]

anyone knows if the goblin merchant brings back items in high roller?

[scenic acorn]

yo fam did they delete the new quests who dropped last night?

[quartz pine]

relog. bug

[scenic acorn]

i was on the last goldmsith quest (the 9th) now i see only 6

[devout umbra]

only 2 tidestone ores on the map?

[scenic acorn]

ty ima try

[next rose]

what will bring new players who stay is a community that isnt more toxic then league of legends in 2016

[hardy stump]

bigger problem is, it is impossible to get people who bounced to try it out again, regardless how well it becomes, I am counting on couple of friends to get bored with Arc Raiders shallow repeated gameplay and check out DaD again to stick around as they are now at least immersed in the genre

[pearl meteor]

Melee sorcerer is fun but is falcion and crystal ball the best basic setup or is there a sword thats superior

[quartz pine]

2 at stingray boss, and 5 potential spawn locations in middle. the middle spawns are random - might be 4, might be 0

[clear jasper]

There are 3 around/in the middle hole and one north of the hole close to the lion chest spawn

[atomic cove]

Some people won't get back there are plenty of games, but still for that amount of players during playtest some will get back even after infamous patch 67

[ebon cosmos]

this game seriously needs a solo squire queue. Forcing new players and low skilled players to go up against the most turbo of involuntary celebit neckbearded sweatlords is SO unfair and unfun.

[atomic cove]

And new players also won't get to know how horrible sdf drove the game

[atomic cove]

Too many queues

[ebon cosmos]

Get rid of trios and replace it with solos. Same amount of queues. Problem solved.

[clear jasper]

Play s2r, has a lots of noobs there, and gives lots of battle experience

[atomic cove]

Horrible idea because it's already there as trios, and we have tools to communicate

You can manage randoms if you know how to communicate, or find 2 teammates

[ebon cosmos]

No there's not lots of noobs in squire royale. It's like 10% noobs to 90% sweatlords

[atomic cove]

Most people have demi in my region so I assume theres more sweatlords, there used to be more noobs before

[twin juniper]

can somebody help me find giant clams

[grizzled citrus]

arena delay so they can add MORE queues.

[atomic cove]

At least it's only weekends

[ebon cosmos]

Can you record for me a video of you controlling randoms and show me how it's done? Because the quality of randoms I get are people who pretend like they're pushing then just go loot a chest somewhere while everyone else fights. Or you kill 1 person in a 3v3 and as far as they're concerned fight is over time to loot.

[clear jasper]

Normals trios also has lots of noobs. But asking for a special que where only noobs go is unrealistic. There will always be someone sweatier and better

[atomic cove]

Its opposite for me, but sure I'll try

[clear jasper]

You must become the sweatlord

[atomic cove]

Like said most people are sweats so they know what to do

[quartz pine]

if theres 90% sweatlords, 10% noobs but you ALWAYS get the noobs, you're a statistic anomaly. You've angered the gaming gods for that kind of luck. May they have mercy on your soul

[delicate terrace]

OR theres something wrong with you *

[ebon cosmos]

Then maybe I'm in like a MMR Of Shame or something for all the shitposting I've done on the disc in the past because one in every 15 games will I get a team that can actually kill things. The other 14 games I get teammates who struggle to write their own names.

[atomic cove]

That's sad, try to carry then

Or play around them

[sudden iron]

anyone have a problem with the new quests mine just wont pop up for some reason

[atomic cove]

Bugged

[sudden iron]

oooooo ty

[ebon cosmos]

I mean when I 1v2 the other team I don't know how much harder I need to carry them.

[quartz pine]

you show up every 10 min to complain about noobs on your team dude. I think its time to find a new game or reset your expectations of this one

[atomic cove]

Then loot and rush red

[delicate terrace]

im also a noober noob doober uber but id take ur bis

[atomic cove]

Go troll some games idk maybe pickpocket, chicken druid it's fun

[wary anvil]

Has anyone had their quests disappear? Just wondering if this is a known bug at the moment or if there is a solution

[atomic cove]

Bugged

[quartz pine]

bug. restart game.

[wary anvil]

Thanks fellas, i appreciate yall

[delicate terrace]

shake the game. wait 3 4 hrs come back it will randomly pop up

[wary anvil]

ill shake it real good

a lil percussive maintenance if you will

[quartz pine]

he stopped responding; he's queued up. we'll see him in 8-12 minutes talking about how bad his team was and how the enemy teams all signed to TSM

[delicate terrace]

hit that thing twin

[delicate terrace]

im drinking not 1. but 2 coffes im waiting with eyes open nothing better to do

[hardy plank]

Weird that they did a duo que ladder for arena. Instead of just 2v2

[ebon cosmos]

That's not all I talk about that's just all you care to see

[quartz pine]

thats possible. lets pull up the search history

[atomic cove]

You can record and show noob mates too tho

[ebon cosmos]

Oh boy I feel so honored. Your discord googling me.

[quartz pine]

you're right, my bad; you also came to chat to complain about:
sorc
p2w skins
desync
SDF
dying in pve mode
not having a tutorial
not being able to kill bosses
SDF again

nothing of value was ever said

[delicate terrace]

Dont forget the stutter server issues. along with crashes upon extraction

and my cat being overweight

[ebon cosmos]

I mentioned p2w skins once and it wasn't even a complaint it was a statement of fact lol

[charred veldt]

how are they supposed to do anything about that last one

[delicate terrace]

shhhhhhhhhhhhh

[ebon cosmos]

You also conveniently skip over all the civil conversations I've been in. To each his own though everybody peddles their own narrative.

[quartz pine]

I didnt have time to scroll pages deep dude. you're a complainer. own it

[delicate terrace]

i mean bud i struggle to kill 2 skeletons and i get to win squires to riches on my own it just might be an approach gap how u play the game

[ebon cosmos]

I do complain. But you're not giving credit where credit's due. If you're only willing to put up one side of an argument then you need to just stfu.

[quartz pine]

complain about it

[ebon cosmos]

see

[grizzled citrus]

you all need to stfu because arena is delayed again

[ebon cosmos]

Who cares about some streamer sweatlord mode

[ancient wharf]

🫃

[delicate terrace]

[ancient wharf]

I do 🫂

[ebon cosmos]

The only thing arenas do for me is makes regular queues take longer

[grizzled citrus]

pve scrub

[delicate terrace]

[quartz pine]

Emissary of the PVE Scrubs here. We don't claim him

[ebon cosmos]

Didn't you hear? I complain about not being able to kill bosses. Apparently not a pve scrub.

[shut mural]

I guarantee the arena delay has nothing to do with the metrics they had from LAST SEASON. I’m sure there is an issue with the new anticheat and now they have to fix it.

[grizzled citrus]

you cant even kill the boss? doesnt that make you even more of a pve scrub?

[granite vigil]

Can wyvern drop viola?

[delicate terrace]

dont u dare spread logic around this area

[clear atlas]

it used to, not anymore, the demon overseer can though, you know the fire boss? it drops the ICE weapon now. lol

[ebon cosmos]

And? You say that like it bothers me. I don't play this game to pve. There's better dark gothic rpgs for that on the market.

[granite vigil]

Lol. OK ty

[stone panther]

no, bows only
Overseer & Warlord have viola

[granite vigil]

Ty

[delicate terrace]

you can always find some friends to play with if you struggle in squire to riches, but making friends is another mechanic completely. u can DM me for tutorial i am somewhat of an expert in the field

[ebon cosmos]

At making friends or the game?

[clear atlas]

I had the fufilment of getting my first artifact this season second day of wipe via middle goblin caves pile, it was a viola, exactly what I asked for last season xD.

[stone panther]

yeh, Artifact able piles can drop 'any' artifact. Bosses got limited pools unfortunately (but at a much higher drop)

[clear jasper]

I was blessed too quick last wipe in ssf with double wyvern drop. But ive done a lot of bosses and pile hits and cant seem to get that luck this ssf…

[ebon cosmos]

Is a unique doublet with 5 dex and 12% increased buff duration worth anything?

[clear atlas]

two seasons ago my groups boss luck was good, getting double lads and all from ghost king, but now its really bad, although we havent bossed much so its probably just due to that.

[hasty creek]

I'm so glad that they're going to add a solos arena I can't stand trios, the only reason I play arena is to hopefully have some mele 1v1's so this is going to be good.

[lone panther]

if i wanna farm trees to upgrade my workshop, what class has the fastest speed for choppin wood?

[clear jasper]

All i do is boss and pile hit… they say its higher this wipe but i dont feel it

[hasty creek]

rogue

[stone panther]

You want interaction speed for that. Which resourcefulness gives. Rogue has a high base resourcefulness.

Stack some gear that has high resourcefulness too, including the rat pendant that no one ever wants. And gem interaction speed on all of your gear. And get a purple axe from huntress or legend from dealmaker for even more interation speed.

My woodchopper 9000 rogue has 180%+ interaction Also works on piles

[clear atlas]

I think its only really in skull key and frozen key but I also havent really felt it either, I just felt really lucky at the time, more than I did that it was improved when I pulled it.

[quartz pine]

not rly. buff dura isnt a popular roll, and especially not on a dex base. if that was action speed though, you'd be cookin

or phys pow/phys dam bonus

[ebon cosmos]

heard phys healing is gonna be meta in arena. Wonder if this uni longbow with 5 phys will be worth anything

wonder why they chose to make normal dungeons a group finder and not just a queue

[peak lynx]

Day 38 @fleet imp

[quartz pine]

when it was queue, you would ONLY find teammates for ruins or MAYBE goblin caves and only during peak hours for many regions.
this way takes a little longer, but players can meet up and agree to play any map

[stone panther]

and your teammates would not talk, or would only talk to each other in a different language, or all go their own way. Party finder is far superior.

It worked kinda ok before on US east, but on other servers like EU, it sucked 90% of the time

[clear atlas]

man gob caves solos is rough, every match is some uber geared person :(.

[tribal zodiac]

Gobos are pvp playground

You have to go all in pvp mindset if you go there, or you lose before fight starts

[ebon cosmos]

Been triyng shotgun ranger with the longbow but I think people are getting too wise to that now for it to work often enough to be worth anymore

[cosmic oak]

i got 2 artifacts beginning of season, 1 in the crypts golden key room, the other in the skull key room. I think I only hit both piles once or twice, but I haven't gotten anything since, and thats all I ever do. I'm guessing they silently changed the drop rates server side, and or rotate the drop rates.

[wispy lichen]

yo someone should let me rez them in frost rq

[stone panther]

make a party and just name it Resurection quest (or look fore one), that how I found one for mine

*edit, I see two at this moment

[wispy lichen]

i did and random level 1s with open mic eating chips and its their first time playing that didnt read the party name

[quartz pine]

sounds like easy revives to me

[wispy lichen]

true

i shoulda just started lol

[pliant valley]

these devs r the dumbest mfrs ever.
Better stop doing what that one guy wants and start building a game for the community.
MAybe i'll come try the game again when it's no longer in EA.
Changes, delays and punishing the playerbase has made the game stale and very much lacking.

[deft lintel]

What are disappointed with now? That arena is delayed?

[covert surge]

Does Anyone already found the mimic tooth?? I swear its not in the game

[livid rain]

Why did they limit arena to solo que past 2600mr

[pliant valley]

delays and limitations. having to be 2600 rank bf u can solo is fkn stupid

[tribal zodiac]

Go bossing w Shotgun overdraw, basically u can strike down whole stage on Spectral and Banshe by 1 shot.

[deft lintel]

So, to clear thing up. There will be two queues now:

3v3 premades and 3v3 fill (solo/duos)

only the second fill premades has a 2600 requirement, the premade one can still have a full team above that ranking

[pliant valley]

i don't need u to clear things up for me, bootlicker. I made a statement not a question

[astral moth]

Should be able to put a lantern in hot bar just like a torch

[stone panther]

the water lantern

[deft lintel]

I don’t count it as a statement if it’s false

[covert surge]

did anyone find the mimic tooth?

[deft lintel]

Yeah, a couple now.

[brittle sinew]

Arena delayed for 2 weeks, how does this even make any sense. Please stop making last min delays and changes you do this every season and the player base keeps telling you stop but you keep doing the same thing over and over!

[tender egret]

when does arena open

[regal surge]

Crashing out over a clarification is hilarious

[regal surge]

It do be pretty annoying, hopefully things turn around in time, but its not looking great

[next epoch]

my life is ruined now i took pto off for arenas man now how am i going to support my 2 families with my 3 9-5 jobs with no pto this is unfair

[hidden latch]

What drops the dang skinny finger?

[quartz pine]

ghouls

[pure trout]

finally got a spectral fabric

only took 27 spectral knight kills

[meager current]

BAN THESE CHINEESE FARMERS

[coarse cypress]

They got families to feed man

😂

[meager current]

Us east and every person in the lobby was xing bing, lao ding, wing tong

shits insane

[stone panther]

the farmers are easy kills tho. They come in squire to maximum loot. It's the sweaty teamers, with similair names, that are the problem

[pure trout]

HellenWong is calling

[obtuse idol]

What’s spectral fabric even used for

[ebon cosmos]

is there a special way to fight warlocks as a ranger or just try and kill them before their dots/unga bunga kills you?

[gusty sierra]

'Armillary Sphere' Where to find it anyone?

[frigid sleet]

its actually hilarious how much gear you need as a sorc just to live, they you get hunted down by people in squire gear

like seriously whats the fucking point

[noble verge]

IM stole my girl!!!!

[stone panther]

ice, in the module with the mountain. It is (can be) between the 2 big chests at the top, with the yeti and harpy.
only on norms/hr I think

[high solstice]

pretty sure only spectral coinbag

[coarse cypress]

Spectral coin bag or the cape

Doesn’t the cape need it too?

[high solstice]

it might i have no idea

[coarse cypress]

Wish Squire royale had map rotation again smh

Same map gets stale

[tribal zodiac]

Thats only reasony why I dont like S2R, after few games im boored as hell.

[lime pine]

Lmao lil bro is hating on farmers, like "why tf are you extracting in a extraction game". This community never cease to amuse me.

[meager current]

Chineese farmers you twat

[granite vigil]

What is tear of the volcano used for?

[coarse cypress]

You don’t get it lmao but okay cook I guess

[lime pine]

Not really, no

[coarse cypress]

It’s a fancy plug that you can put somewhere dark👀

Slime girls when

[elfin sky]

Crazy developer, remove the mechanic of being thrown into matches. Why, even though I have a great computer, am I thrown into matches and when I spawn, I hear the mob die I need for a quest being killed? Why should I play this? I went to do a quest and this stupid developer throws me into a match. Oh my god, how stupid.

[paper latch]

why my game keep closing during fights

[tulip pine]

is teaming allowed in hr? seems people dont get banned at all for that garbage.

[lime pine]

So dudes either a racist, or hates farmers, that's all I got from that message, and I gave him the benefit of the doubt.

[soft wolf]

No. Report them and they will likely get banned for teaming

[near rose]

@tulip pine yea bankable jest need a video to proof

[slender eagle]

anyone seen armillary sphere this wipe?

[tulip pine]

player names are fighter0000 and FAWKEZ

[slender eagle]

ive done over 30 ice cave runs and found 0 on both spots

[near rose]

@slender eagle ice caves 99$ shur that's ware I got one

[high zealot]

Fact, they just don't stopp. Have seen 3 ppl bossing together in solo. like come on... go trio then...

[slender eagle]

did you get it this wipe or last wipe? where in ice caves did you find it? @near rose

[tribal zodiac]

I dont report ppl who Boss together tbh.. if they talking voip ingame its so ok.

Problem is, if they hunt people together. or try to Que together.

[near rose]

@high zealot mutual understanding is a little different Like ones goin to loot boss n the other gonadotropin look four. A free head shot

[lime pine]

Fr

[near rose]

@slender eagle this wipe

[slender eagle]

do you remember where you found it in ice caves?

[near rose]

One with the harpy and a yeti

Can't remember the name

[slender eagle]

rip, ive been there over 30 times

yeah i know the module, thanks

[tribal zodiac]

https://darkanddarkertracker.com/

Use this

[slender eagle]

guess its just super rare

[tribal zodiac]

in HR/Norms its almost alltime there

[stone panther]

got like 10 of them. THey dont spawn on pve

[slender eagle]

yeah im using that thanks 😄

[near rose]

It's a blue so can be that hard to get

[slender eagle]

i did like 10 pve runs and 20 pvp runs for it, guess im just unlucky, thanks for confirming, ima go back to farming it

is it hr only maybe?

[stone panther]

on HR I see them like 50/50. Not sure about norms spawnrate

[near rose]

That's what I play yea

[charred flare]

iq is pseudoscience

[slender eagle]

fuck i dont play hr im too lazy to change bios settings

[near rose]

@slender eagle does it need to be looted

[stone panther]

you can always wait 10 hours and buy it. Doesnt need to be looted

[charred flare]

nothing wrong with having a 2-digit IQ. muhammad ali had a 78 IQ

[slender eagle]

nope, ima try a few more runs and if wont find it ill just buy in couple of hours

thanks everyone

[charred flare]

iq is pseudoscience

[near rose]

@slender eagle u will get in in 10 mins man

[granite vigil]

What is tear of the volcano used for?

[noble wind]

for quests

[stone panther]

nothing, absolutely nothing. Was a grind item last season, now, nothing

[winged widget]

My new quest have disappeared. Anyone else have this issue?

[clear atlas]

its a weird bug, my friend had it for the collector only during the last quests, I think restarting fixes it sometimes.

[ebon cosmos]

Are 2 dex 2 vig 2 str 27 luck 1 phys power sturdy boots worth anything?

or a cocatrice egg?

[winged widget]

That's what I did last time. It's not helping now though.

[clear atlas]

eggs worth a hearty meal, otherwise its just for cockatrice quest.

[clear atlas]

no clue then, I had it happen too but it just stopped randomly so I have no clue on how it fixes itself lol.

[winged widget]

@clear atlas okay 👍

[ebon cosmos]

will items gotten from huntress be sellable or no?

[clear atlas]

by sellable do you mean to the marketplace or vendors? because yes to both.

[ebon cosmos]

on the markte

market*

to people

[lofty hemlock]

did they change the CD on luck pots? my vendor hasnt had any

[ebon cosmos]

Wish shield slam did more damage if you were using a pavice

[unreal tide]

i have a question, if i have a castillon dagger and a rondel on both hands, the armor pen from rondel work when i hit someone with the castillon ?

[vagrant knoll]

yes

[unreal tide]

ok thx !

[gray sigil]

Whats the timer say for arena in game right now

[steady aspen]

do people still use lightfoot boots in arena?

[stone panther]

Opens in a day

[main forge]

if someone reports a chinese player on NA or any server besides oce and SEA they should be automatically banned

[woeful forum]

Is there a guide for bard?

[steady aspen]

ah true, is that the same for loose trousers? seems like agility/movespeed aren't as important

[clear atlas]

why does a rogue do more to me when I shriek him and have better gear T.T I hit him more times.

[gray sigil]

For real say opens in a day?

[stone panther]

of course, they haven't released a patch yet. So their new plans aren't in the game yet.
I'm expecting some hotfix with some other small stuff tomorrow that will reset the timer by like a month

[gray sigil]

Gotcha thank you

[meager girder]

what is honeybliss pear

[vagrant knoll]

free gold

[meager girder]

should i wait for market or just sell it

[vagrant knoll]

someone might buy it on market for fun idk, it's 5k to the vendor

[ebon cosmos]

I must move like a noob or something because as soon as a fight breaks out ppl on the other team instantly focus on me.

[steady aspen]

Gotcha. i managed to get ahold of some epic trousers with +3 vig and +3 strength and was hoping someone would want for arena. will see when the market opens. if not I can just run them since I am pretty average haha
thanks for the info!

[proud marten]

how mutch is head of midnight stag?

[lime pine]

200k

[unkempt matrix]

The cap for the undead dmg reduction is 50% does warlock passive do anything past that?

[vagrant knoll]

yeah they'll sell for some thousands for sure

[oak shale]

Marked open yet?

[proud marten]

i can trade it for artifact you think?

[lime pine]

Heh I have no clue, not like I got one

[oak shale]

??

[fresh canyon]

are all artifacts pullable from treasure piles?

[oak shale]

Ty for the answers baboons

[halcyon ferry]

is it true that arena has been pushed back by like another 2 weeks?

[rocky veldt]

Anyone else here play using controller through steam profiles? Seems some of the latest updates broke that for me and i wonder if anyone has a fix

[lime pine]

FR it's not that expensive, was just messing with you

[ancient vector]

Been running shadow step it’s great when it works…but anyone else have it just not tp you even if nothing is blocking the tp ? The inconsistency is driving me crazy makes me not even wanna run it

[proud marten]

it's 20k to collector so

[lone panther]

can a unique roll only a single stat?

[proud marten]

maybe worth a bit more 😄

[lime pine]

I mean if there's no quest, then it's just worth 20k

[ebon cosmos]

You doing it when you have a dagger equipped?

[proud marten]

ppl like to flex it

[lime pine]

It's not like delta force where you can hold it ingame

[tough spoke]

try selling it in the collectors guild when markets open

[ancient vector]

Dagger or with a throwing knife because I pair it with lethal mark, sometimes it works perfectly other times just no tp, usually only happens when I use a throwing knife….. haven’t had to many problems with just daggers

[regal condor]

the games not even balanced around solos, why would we want to wait another month for solo and duo arena

[lone panther]

is it normal for a unique weapon to only have one stat role?

[clear atlas]

yes it used to be I believe 5 rolls but now its just 1, its changed a few times to be that way so for all we know it may revert again 🤷‍♂️

[wicked parrot]

It's not solo and duo arena, it's 3v3 arena but solo and duo people can que so they aren't vs pre made teams

[eternal nymph]

how preveleent are these hackers

[regal condor]

waiting another 3 weeks for that is insane. i feel like i could already solo que tho... cant remember

[gusty sierra]

have not encountered one in several wipes, git gud and stop calling people hacker because youre bad, then you might actually get better, cheers

[merry meteor]

anyone know where altar module is in ice caverns?

[ancient vector]

People soft hack all the time but go off I guess…..

[queen palm]

dark and darker interactive map on google

[merry meteor]

ty

[regal condor]

ye i was thinking that guys is just happy and ignorant

[gusty sierra]

modules rotate in the frozen mountain, that one has a yeti in the center, if it helps.

[wicked parrot]

You could always solo or duo que, but you had the chance to face vs a pre made 3 man vs your random group. Now it'll even the odds a bit more if you don't have a 3 man to play with

[queen palm]

lol this guy only plays normal and pve thats why he doesnt see hackers

[merry meteor]

appreciate it mate

[gusty sierra]

allowing yourself to lie like that is what is making you not to improve. cheers

[regal condor]

bro the internet is filled with cheats for any game you can think of, too think that people wouldnt take advantage of you is naive

[ancient vector]

I’m not ass at the game lol but denying it completely and acting like people don’t use walls or esp, is just ignorant

[queen palm]

i have over 4.5k in the game and can say hacking is a major issue majorally the soft esp but there are people hard cheating til this day . Ran into one with a chinese name on east servers in ice solos yesterday on ranger shooting me across a big module tracking me in invis while moving around lol

[gusty sierra]

@ancient vector@queen palm Git gud.

[regal condor]

active cheater, no way anyoneis this ignorant right?

[queen palm]

exactly lol your only response is git gud keep enjoying pve mode brother

[ebon cosmos]

do backstabby rogue builds stack str?

[gusty sierra]

you even call people cheater in discord, no wonder you think everyone is hacking in game, git gud

[queen palm]

i can still kill them and play the game and enjoy it but to say there isnt cheaters is just pure delusion or rage bait

[ebon cosmos]

I remember you from like 8 months ago. You were accusing people of cheating back then too.

[regal condor]

all right brother i would assume you werent this niave but apparently im either talking to a small child or a cheater trying to convince the rest of usd its not that bad

[queen palm]

even after making people change their bios settings going through hoops for some people the cheaters still walk around shamelessly with no repercussion

[regal condor]

so are you saying there isint a cheater problem in 2026 on online gaming?

[gusty sierra]

git gud

[queen palm]

hes just rage baiting or doesnt play HR dont pay any attention to him lol

[regal condor]

that or there legit cheaters trying to convince us there isint a problem with cheating. im on to them

[ebon cosmos]

There are cheaters in everything obviously. But it's nearly impossible to tell what's cheating and what's just this games jank ass servers

[queen palm]

seems more like a brainless bot to me but hey if you say so haha

[still cloud]

use to be 500 ap on exit

[queen palm]

dont think he could figure out how to get past the bootload stuff

[regal condor]

okay, maybe you cant spot it. nobodies judging you but google it, dark and darker cheats. several websites. quit acting like a Ostridge with your head in the sand

[gusty sierra]

@queen palm@regal condor staying in your eco chamber wont help you improve, get out there, and get better, actual cheaters are very rare to encounter less than 1 in a 1000 runs, stop lying to yourselves. cheers

[sullen fossil]

if i open the door to a treasure room with a rusty key or whatever, is that door now open for everyone to open and close?

[regal condor]

what are talking bout little one?

[queen palm]

again. coming from a normals player this is what i expect to hear. but they are more prevelant in HR than you think

expand your views travel new roads play some HR and you will surely run into a cheater every 20 matches or so

[regal condor]

like stop playing the game and get some fresh air? get out there lmao. im getting to old for this shit im out

[gusty sierra]

stop justifying mediocrity, demigod every season, missing the time when it actually meant something and you lost a lot of point when dying.

[still cloud]

so because he could beat up others dudes means hes exempt? i dont understand your reasoning. Id go so far as to say we need IQ tests to allow voting rights

[regal condor]

lmfao

[queen palm]

wtf does that have to with cheaters lmfao

[gusty sierra]

bye now kids, get out there and kick ass

[ancient vector]

lol thing is no one is saying everyone is cheating, but I have ran across some suspicious stuff and clear esping and wall hacks….. you can be good at a game and still run into hackers, dudes argument is “I’m right your wrong”

[sullen fossil]

guys can u quit ur room temp iq bickering and help me out with this question thanks

[queen palm]

back when it was " hard" to get demigod everyone was teaming in solos and being chill so it wasnt actually that hard unless you got it in trios

[queen palm]

yes

[sullen fossil]

thanks king

[queen palm]

the answer to your question is yes

[ocean spear]

To use market place and becoming "trader " is having one character with lvl 20 enough or all of my characters must be lvl 20 ?

[blazing sedge]

each one has to be 20 and pay the fee

[queen palm]

have to be lvl 20 on the character you are trying to trade with

[still cloud]

move speed and kite them, surv bow ranger or caster warlock

[ocean spear]

Thanks

[queen palm]

so basically, if you dont want to lose to a halberd during the halberd meta you must play surv bow ranger or caster lock lol

[desert quest]

how long till markert

[fallen eagle]

Hey guys, question: Is the Armilarry Sphere only on frost mountain?

[quartz pine]

[gray glen]

Is friendly fire 100% damage?

I want to practice certain matchups / weapons with a friend, if we join as duo and fight each other, would this be a realistic sample?

[fallen eagle]

do revives debuff the revivee?

this csm bullshit makes me cant play hr, everytime i tried to disable it my pc wont boot, anyone have the solution?

[charred flare]

iq is pseudoscience

[charred flare]

iq tests don't mean anything

[jovial viper]

no

[ebon cosmos]

are build guides from like a year ago still viable?

[vagrant knoll]

some yes some no, depends what specifically and if it was changed

[eternal nymph]

@gusty sierra your being rude i wasnt even complaining about it curuios since hard to tell. there are recent videos on yt of it happening

[mossy vessel]

no arena this weekend? yall suck at devliering on promises

[regal condor]

@zinc sparrow having us wait a month for arenas is crazy. out of a 3month wipe we get 2 months of arena. 8 weekends. you guys might be shooting yourselfs in the foot a bit there. idk., either way im off dark and dakrer til the end of the month. see you guys then

[ivory nest]

when does arena open

[magic sleet]

i like how the in game whispers dont even fit on screen if the message is too long

[ivory nest]

i thought it was just like the rank season not arena itself, like u can still play but you wont get ranking points or anything till season starts may 29th

[brittle sinew]

totally insane but I don't know why Im surprised, they do this all the time constant last minute changes

[hushed spear]

if the maps were randomized to prevent getting spawnrushed, why am i still getting spawnrushed

legitimately kill 2 mobs and had a team on me

[still cloud]

sounds like someone was unhappy with their results

[jovial viper]

yes!

[brittle wing]

this game is so fucking bad

[still cloud]

yup but we still here

[charred flare]

Well i never scored low on an iq test

But its still pseudoscience

[still cloud]

i believe you

WINK

[merry lantern]

iq is absolutely not psuedoscience

[quartz pine]

thats funny, the test doesnt mean anything but still can't have people thinking you scored low.

[charred flare]

it is

[charred flare]

why would i lie

[merry lantern]

just saying that is proof that its not psuedoscience because you are so low iq that you genuinely believe some people are not more innately intelligent than others

[quartz pine]

when did I say you lied?

[silent crater]

#📢announcements

[still cloud]

💯

[charred flare]

iq is pseudoscience

[charred flare]

Nice reading comprehension

[still cloud]

you got mic dropped, you should exit chat

[quartz pine]

Are you a robot?

[charred flare]

i wasnt talking to you

[merry lantern]

the way we quantify iq may be pseudoscience, but the idea that everyone is of equal intelligence is absolutely wrong

[charred flare]

iq is not the same as intelligence

[quartz pine]

thanks roe jogan

[charred flare]

prove that its not pseudoscience

[still cloud]

IQ tests are actually not intelligence but a way to determine where someone is lacking, learning disabilities, pattern recognition, vocabulary and verbal reasoning, processing speed, spatial puzzles and the like.

they arent used to determine that you are smart necessarily, but it does determine if you are aretarded

[woeful topaz]

Are the coral potion skins ever gonna be released again? they said after 3 months it would be back in the store and it has been like a year

[sullen fossil]

pattern recognition isnt pseudo science. what you should be saying is that iq tests dont cover all aspects that are relevant in regards to intelligence

[tough star]

HR prereqs suuuuuuck, anyone know if that's going to be a temporary bandage, or if HR is going to persist beyond the reach of those with poorer builds

[quartz pine]

how does any of this relate to game discussion is my questiomn

[charred flare]

iq tests are trainable anyone can get a high iq

[sullen fossil]

not you since you cant even respond to what im saying

[fringe garnet]

Hi! Could y'all please move the IQ related talk to #the-tavern ? This channel is intended for the game while tavern is off topic

[sullen fossil]

ok

[charred flare]

ppl need to stop using iq as an insult here

[sullen fossil]

weird time to see a mod step in and not when this chat is in its usual habitat where people are telling sdf to off himself or flaming each other over nonsense

[charred flare]

or block the word iq

[woeful topaz]

@fringe garnet do you have any idea if the coral potion skin will be back in the shop? all the others ones have

[livid onyx]

Cleric Troll Cheese is 200 IQ

[quartz pine]

agreed

[sturdy coral]

im pretty sure none of the water map shop items ahve come back aside from the reefling emote. should be due

[woeful topaz]

It has been ages and i missed out on the set, they mentioned items get rotated back into the shop after 3 months but they came out TIME AGO

[alpine scaffold]

dude did they fix the fps problem or nah

my fps is so low in trios

[stray axle]

Thank you! So tied of these discussions constantly going on here.

[sturdy coral]

yeah idk what the strategy is now, they rotate the shop a few times per wipe though. maybe summertime water themed shop??

[woeful topaz]

Aye i be praying, been waiting on these coral pots for the longest time all the others are a bit mid in my opinion

[jovial night]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhdbeyFIygA Minute 4:30, chinese hackers. they do this every game in south america server, its infested of chinese with auto aim in the head, you can't block them and they attack with crazy range. see the last second of the clip how the sorcer got hit by rapier when it was out of range. IRON MACE do something! block chinese to play in other server and find the exploit/hack and fix it as soon as possible, the game is unplayable

[stray axle]

Sucks they changed things again but excited to try arena where I don't have to worry about bringing anyone else down. I suck so bad😆

[sturdy coral]

very true, haven't been "wow"ed by any of them yet

[woeful topaz]

yeahh same, even the weapon skins themselves aren't all that appealing. If they bring out ice sets for like a spellbook or something like that then they'll have my attention

[fringe garnet]

Coral?

I don't remember a coral potion skin

[vernal badger]

1v1 arena is good for the game. It might bring the people that just do pve to norms and hr once they get the basics of pvp and being able to practice without the fear of loosing their pixels. Good change ironmace

[woeful topaz]

It was part of the water map set, made the potions have coral all over the bottle and had a green top to it

[sturdy coral]

bud it’s not 1v1 arena lol it’s just separating trio queue from solo/duo

[slow sun]

My Quests are gone. 15 Hours ago I had alot of Frost Mountain Quest, but now they r all gone, just huntress quests ... does any one else experiencing this rn?

[warm ingot]

Would love to see the luck skin return to the shop now that luck actually works

[fringe garnet]

Tbh I have the most fun in 1v2 situations

[quartz pine]

bug. restart game

[slow sun]

❤️

[gaunt sand]

wait so does that mean arenas arent open at all for another 2 weeks? or just the ranking system for the new season? or just the new solo/duo modes? Tell me they arent that dumb to cancel arenas one day before they open?

[nocturne merlin]

the whole reason i play this game is for arena. waiting two mroe weeks when i spent two weeks already to gear up so demoralizing.....
why does the start of every season force me away from playing this game in what little freetime i have to game already.....

[proper kindle]

so is arena gonna be a seperate leaderboard for if you queue in solos / duos into trios or is it a seperate 2v2 mode

[regal condor]

checking to see if it clarifies in game but im thinking we have to wait naother 2 weeks to play arena

[stray axle]

Wow, well that is disappointing.

[nocturne merlin]

litterally waiting for arena because a new scoring system is being implimented is so lame........

[regal condor]

2 weeks for a bit of ui and 2 new que systems is crazy too

[vernal badger]

Well fuck, that's what happens when I read patch notes before having any coffee. Oh well, thought they were cooking but nevermind

[regal condor]

guys it says arena opens in a day, so there may be a chance

[pallid hemlock]

How IM be dancing on the games grave

[regal condor]

but knowing IM they forgot to change what it says in there current que system....

hopefully they still put out normal arena tomorrow and we wait on the new que.... could be just bad translation

@zinc sparrow idk if we know but can someone clarify if we get normal arenas tomorrow. would be crazy to make us wait a month for u guys to add 2 new ques to a system thats already there. idk man

[nocturne merlin]

for real, they must have some shit tools or a guy that watches videos all day while he codes lol.

[spiral totem]

I thought it was fairly clear "We need some extra time to prepare this new matching queue and leaderboard, so the start of Arena Season 2 has been slightly pushed back to May 29th" "We apologize for the delay but believe this update will offer a more compelling Arena experience to a larger audience. "

[gaunt sand]

Imagine answering a question not by answering but by saying i thought it was pretty clear. lol

lol

[quartz pine]

"Chat, understand this for me"
welcome to 2026

[gaunt sand]

lol

[spiral totem]

I quoted the announcement, what do you mean 'not answering'? thats the answer to his question about if arena opens tomorrow or not...

[gaunt sand]

no the answer would be yes or no, since they have opened arena between seasons before. saying you dont know is better than assuming imo

[blazing sedge]

in game timer says it opens tomorrow still, so there is confusion

[gaunt sand]

just so we could play arenas have been opened between seasons ect

[spiral totem]

no one knows more then the announcement..

[gaunt sand]

ok so then why come in act like you "know" lol by stating its clear. whats clear sir?

[rocky bramble]

Welcome to the ironmace discord.

[spiral totem]

Never said I know, I quoted the announcements that people regularly forget to look at.

[rocky bramble]

You'll get zero actual discussion here, just addicted nerds glazing the devs

[gaunt sand]

ok you said its clear, whats clear sir?

[spiral totem]

their statement.

[gaunt sand]

lol

you have a good one ominous lol

[rocky bramble]

ingame it still says arena opens on the 15th

So yes, we do know more than the announcement, and it took me 2 seconds. You're welcome Wilhelm

Sorry the person in the discord all day doesn't know what he's talking about.

[gaunt sand]

I hope your right but as stated before maybe they forgot to change the timer in game like before as well

fingers crossed!

[rocky bramble]

Doesn't make sense to push back arena itself by 2 weeks and call it a slight delay.

[charred flare]

no iq talk here?

[rocky bramble]

so I'm sure it'll be up on the 15 like it says in game.

[peak shore]

is buff duration and magical healing the best thing for druid heals? I looked online and the wiki but its inconsistent, anything is helpful

[gaunt sand]

buff duration is how long buffs last on yourself right? not how long they last on others?

[stray axle]

Don't want this to be true but seems pretty accurate. Sad because the game is good enough to get people invested but bad in ways that constantly disappoint. Seems like the have is in a better state than a few years ago but lost a lot of players along the way for some pretty frustrating reasons.

[blazing sedge]

hopefully, don't see a reason arena entirely should be delayed, even if it's unranked until the next patch comes

[rocky bramble]

^

I don't see a reason for them to keep arena locked during ssf if they're gonna open it up to all gear anyway.

It's super lame and they've done it every wipe.

but that's a different story.

[hardy mesa]

how much yall think spec fabs aare gonna be worth in 7 hours

[quartz pine]

18-24k

[blazing sedge]

i've only ever seen them open it up entirely as end of wipe events but I did take a break for a while so idk if they did no restriction season or something in the last year

[quartz pine]

they might be cheaper, because the stuff to make with them isn't available yet. but maybe not because people know the value goes up. might get market manipulated to hell

[regal condor]

wait so whats your determination? no arena tomorrow or what?

[spiral totem]

I think it will be delayed, in game timers dont mean much.

[distant bear]

what are they a crafting component for

[rocky bramble]

I think you're wrong but we'll see. They've done arena before ranked before, don't see why they wouldn't do it again.

And if they really think pushing arenas back over 2 weeks is a "slight" delay, they're higher than I am.

[proven crescent]

Anyone know way to get in-game cinematics?

Like being able to free cam across a map and get shots of buildings and stuff?

Don’t believe there is a replay system either right?

[rocky bramble]

Also, in dungeon timers are broken too.

The timer above the map is gone.

[blazing sedge]

most people use warlock evil eye for that kind of stuff, range is a bit limited but if you want to get footage or screenshots that is the way

[proven crescent]

I guess that could work yeah 👍🏻

[echo mountain]

Game needs rollback damage on blocks.

[spiral totem]

the amount of times I see the weapon go 1/2 foot into the shield, hit the person then get blocked is wild haha

[molten parcel]

i know luck is back to working properly but question boys, does luck affect stuff like getting troll pelt or etc?

[distant bear]

? its always absent in HR and present in other modes lol

[worldly ingot]

Has anyone found armillary sphere

[spark briar]

The chuds playing s2r rn are.... Something else.

[rapid vapor]

its in the ice caves in some specific modules i forget their names

[tawdry schooner]

yeah i found one on ice map first floor

idk the name

[red tendon]

why does it say market opens in 7 hours

[drifting raptor]

yes

[echo mountain]

Yeah that still does damage what I want is for the damage to be mitigated or you cant block high ping players.

[hardy mesa]

so is it worth selling 1 later then keep like 5 for making spec bags?

[lost tree]

Now that teleport on rouge is established code can we add the ability for warlock to TP to their skull bat spell as a way to get around very long distances for flanks?

[red tendon]

ts so annoying

im just stuck with 1 map for hours

[echo mountain]

why

[red tendon]

bc you need the stupid aprentice 3 bs

[livid onyx]

I think selling them and buying pouches is more efficient, they hold 5k for 4 spaces pouches hold 1k for 4 spaces and are gonna be like 15-20x cheaper if you're okay with the gold storage taking up 5x more space

[livid onyx]

It makes troll pelt drop less frequently, and spectral fabric drop a bit more frequently but I don't know if the fabric and spectral hilt are in the same drop table, and if they are, luck makes hilts drop more frequently than fabrics.

[sturdy coral]

bud. .. it should not take you hours to rip 2 ruins runs to inferno

[obtuse sedge]

Anyone nows if for Arena has to be self found items or just Purple?

OK ok thx

[waxen dragon]

i was looking forward for arena i have time off work for 2 weeks why push back arena as a whole and not just release the other gamemodes at a later date whatis this

[lone panther]

what mob is most likely to drop a short sword for my rogue in squire royal?

[frosty spoke]

is there any chance to get artifacts in loot hoards in all maps hr??

[spiral totem]

Bosses, Key rooms and double boss rooms only

[worldly ingot]

Anyone know module name for armillary sphere spawn

[spiral totem]

Mountain Pass, ice caves

[silent crater]

something with mountain on frost mountain first floor

[worldly ingot]

I've been to mountain pass 50 times its never there .-.

[silent crater]

for me it spawned 2 at the same time there

[spiral totem]

it was at the top between the chests, the yeti and harpee protecting it

[drifting raptor]

spectral fabrics are worth basically 1k until cloak craft

[lean sage]

why do i see people not taking self damage when playing demon form warlock ?

[quartz pine]

please convince as many people as possible to list their spec fabrics at 1k tonight. sincerely, everyone\

[drifting raptor]

i have 46

[sonic maple]

lmao

[drifting raptor]

all i do is farm them and sell and flip them

[sonic maple]

not even 69

[quartz pine]

ill give you 50k for all of em

[drifting raptor]

why would i do that

[sonic maple]

hes not dumb

[drifting raptor]

sell them for 1k

[quartz pine]

exactly. because they arent worth 1k. why lie?

[sonic maple]

hes hussling you in game discussuion

do you even know who he is

[silent crater]

it's not gonna be expensive it's only start of the market

[drifting raptor]

he plays DaD he is

[sonic maple]

gl scamming a vet

[drifting raptor]

i’m jivus

[sonic maple]

[quartz pine]

[drifting raptor]

[vale cedar]

add a visual cue to let people know if barb is running iron will or not

[still flicker]

Ik man. My friend just bought Legendary status on sale yesterday so we could play some arena this weekend.

[vale cedar]

smth like purge shot ranger

[still flicker]

Guess we just have more time to farm gold for kits I guess.

[waxen dragon]

makes no sense why they cant add the other 2 at a later date or just make arena un ranked until the 29th

[amber bane]

??? So no arena tmr, go fuk ur selves iron mace, kiss my asssssssssssss played since season one fukkkkkkkkklkkkk yalll

[still flicker]

Ik

That's what I'm saying

I really wanted to play some arena tomorrow after my finall.

[waxen dragon]

fr got time off work all this week and next was ready to fullly grind arena

[still flicker]

Idk. In game it still says it opens tomorrow

we shall see if they do an unranked weekend arena game

[silent crater]

You have time to get better gear for arena, use the time you have left

[waxen dragon]

i hope so it would be so dumb otherwise

[still flicker]

I think there should be an Always open blue only unranked arena.

[waxen dragon]

bro there is so much time to get kits already

i have kits ready + market will be open

[silent crater]

well it was 2 weeks

[amber bane]

I already have bis I don’t need more time

[still flicker]

Yeah I have like 30-40k gold just to spend on one kit of my choosing

[silent crater]

That's nice

[amber bane]

Bs no arena only rookies don’t have kits with double plus 3s

[silver ginkgo]

DId they ever speak about adding solo duo Q in arena ? xD this is so B S. They can even respect and tell the truth for the reason of the delay

[still flicker]

I love how they announced it today. The day before Arena was gonna open

[silver ginkgo]

yeah it's crazy that's why I will delete the game. Those guy just shit on us

[amber bane]

Og they already on some shit, thought that’s why they went back to saying season one and 2 bec it’s a fresh start to keep things on track and they already fukin up

Watch ur players drop back to nonexistent

[silent crater]

for me it's better I'll sell my tanglethreads for even more when arena opens

[waxen dragon]

i swear they love losing their players

[still flicker]

What's that

[amber bane]

Already numbers falling

[silent crater]

Heavy leather leggings reskin with a passive

[still flicker]

It's not

[still flicker]

Oh

[silent crater]

they drop from a spider on frost map

but the spider is very rare

[still flicker]

Like Grottok?

[silent crater]

Yeah it's a special mob like grimsley, scarfang etc

[spiral totem]

I found him and got my thorn shield last week 😄

[still flicker]

Ah

[still flicker]

Got mine last week to lol

[silent crater]

i think the name is spell weaver or something

[still flicker]

Also had a friend get one same day after I did.

Think we were in sqr

[spiral totem]

W I rerolled mine a few times in the workshop, +2 phys power, +3.8 Headshot damage, +14 armor rating

[still flicker]

spell weaver is an arty

[silent crater]

well idk really the exact name of the mob

[still flicker]

I havent re rolled mine. Have 1.2% Phys reduc, 2% Magic Pen, and 1.8% action speed

I don't have the workshops upgraded

[stone panther]

frostweaver: https://darkanddarker.wiki.spellsandguns.com/Frostweaver

[still flicker]

Don't know witch one I Should upgrade

[robust cloak]

what are you supposed to do against the auto aiming triple shot from npc? just got oneshot from mob 😒

[amber bane]

R y’all all ass at this game?? Y’all the kids I roll

[still flicker]

Are you stuipd? Why the fuck did you say all twice

[honest cedar]

Where is the Bat Roost in Forgotten Castle?

[silent crater]

oh, yeah almost had it

[stone panther]

#dnd-screenshots message

[robust cloak]

honestly think i have more deaths to archer npc than actual players

[silent crater]

they're pretty strong

[still flicker]

Lol. I don't have more deaths but more damage taken

[robust cloak]

@still flicker that random headshot while chasing or running gets me so damn much

[silent crater]

you need to time it and duck down

[frosty spoke]

Does mystical gem room lootpile give artifacts?

[twin hazel]

Have the brightness or lighting conditions in Dark and Darker changed with the recent updates?
I get the feeling that it has become significantly darker.

[robust cloak]

oh i know. ive got a couple thousand hours 🙃 just complaining cause i lost a unique luck loadout to a goddamn npc hahaha

[silent crater]

ouchh

[honest cedar]

ty

[frosty spoke]

?

[karmic copper]

can't find shackles on the water map, the two youtube videos about it are not it.

anyone know the new location?

[silent crater]

Yes

[robust cloak]

https://darkanddarkertracker.com/maps

just put in which mission, items, maps, etc and itll tell you exactly where unless it hasnt been updated

[still flicker]

Yeah lol

[karmic copper]

thanks, but I really didn't find them there but I'll try again. Must be my mistake

but that page is much better for maps than the one I use

[robust cloak]

someone could have gotten there first, its first come first serve and rogues got fast feet

[worldly ingot]

i go on rouge

first one there everytime, get out check inventory no one has it

[quasi sand]

is there a bug that bard has rn to lose all buffs at random?

[robust cloak]

did you aggro a wisp?

[quasi sand]

possible

[robust cloak]

wisp nuke basically all buffs and they hit through wall. its annoying for bards for sure

if wisp forced druids back into human form it would actually be a nice update imo

[quasi sand]

druid is so nerfed its i have maybe seen 2 druids and they were just loot rats

[queen pendant]

Anyone know if they are gonna change this tpm 2.0 shit ?

[vestal kelp]

why is the game prompting me to enable tpm 2.0 when i was literally in a hr game a couple of hours ago.

[robust cloak]

has decent play in groups for healing and tanking. has alot of play on water map

[uncut crag]

If it’s enable already it’s a glitch. Just restart.

[queen pendant]

Yeah lowkey one of the better melee classes right now imo

Are we getting real anti cheat at some point or do you want me to actually spend 70 dollars to play hr @little summit

[edgy sable]

Yall out there farming your items before wipe?

New arena, solo arena ! 😄

[queen pendant]

70 dollar arena XD

[edgy sable]

What's $70 of it?

I can't even play it, Im not touching bios sorry pal

[still cloud]

at what affinity do we finally get white pots?

this is aretarded that i got 15 quests done with this pos and i still dont get white pots to buy?

[edgy sable]

idk but igot white pots so ..

[stone panther]

I have had them for at least a week, how far behind are you?

[edgy sable]

^

[still cloud]

it took forever to get a mimic tooth to drop

and this dudes got like 30 damn quests

[brazen lynx]

where does gk spawn now?

[still cloud]

150+ mimics or something like that 1 tooth finally

[still cloud]

with lich and warlord

[brazen lynx]

ty

[stone panther]

I think it should be at 75 affinity that you get white stuff. And with todays released quests it goes to 150, green stuff

[delicate terrace]

20% droprate from mimic, so its a bit weird i get it all the time

[spiral totem]

anyone know if the Chests are limited to only key room and doubleboos rooms like artis? Or can they come from any pile?

[quasi sand]

so my computer dosent have hvci at all. so am i just cooked cant play hr or arena?

[stone panther]

any pile, on HR. Including open ones like the center yeti pile on ice. Not sure about s2r
But the drop rate is insane, like 0.05% (and a bag 0.45%)

[amber bane]

Well no one is gonna play arena bec iron mace is full of cuk lords

[molten parcel]

doesnt even need to be hr, got one in pve mode before lolol

[still cloud]

im gonna play arena

[charred veldt]

any pile

[signal sundial]

Does Dark and darker complain about TPM2 or Secure boot? If not reinstall windows and then you should be able to enable HVCI. I've seen a few people with corrupted windows security being unable to recover and requiring a reinstall

[stone panther]

maybe a year ago, but for the past 2. PvE does 100% not have chests.
but bags, sure

[floral pendant]

Will arena still be open later today or will we have to wait the 2 weeks

[amber bane]

Don’t worry they will wait till player base back at 4k and drop it

[molten parcel]

pve hasnt been out for over a year prob not even close to a year yet lmao and pve 100% has chests and bags

[still cloud]

theres usually bios updates to fix this, i had a blue screen everytime i enabled the virtualization in device security, bios update fixed that. my motherboard is rather dated but bios updates allowed tpm 2.0 and the hvci

[warped spear]

Why is tavern master taking up 20% of my cpu

[floral pendant]

Pve doesnt have chests gang

[amber bane]

Pve doesn’t drop chest anymore

[still cloud]

just need a usb and go to your motherboard site for new bios update

[warped spear]

Thats so much more

[quasi sand]

it says my pc is not new enough to support it or somthing

[floral pendant]

That was for like a week when PvE was released, then they removed it

[warped spear]

God idec if you have a kernel level anti cheat, but dont make it so intesnive on my pc

20% of my cpu usage is rediculous for an anti cheat that hardly works

[amber bane]

Don’t worry only cuks that don’t listen to shi work at iron mace so I’m sure they will be right on it like arenas

[spiral totem]

Thank you!

[spiral totem]

Thank you!

[stone panther]

PvE came out on april 10th last year. 13 months ago.
and it did have chests for a while as a bug, up intil during the semi semi madness. But deff not after

[floral pendant]

The arena change would be chill if they still let us play it today but now we have to wait another month lol

[still cloud]

i dont understand why we needed 30 quests and 5 affinity gain each

fuq the alchemist

[floral pendant]

Yay i cant wait for this 2 month long wipe where we get to play arena for 2 weeks for the entirety of it

[floral pendant]

Cause now he has the fortune teller and surgeons quests too

[gritty sorrel]

Someone teach me how to do the big evil lizard

[amber bane]

Don’t worry tho they will for sure have new arena map LMAO

[floral pendant]

Lmfao they better, half of the ones they removed at the start of last season werent even bad

There used to be like 15 good arena maps and they just removed all of them bahahaha

[amber bane]

Devs do the opposite of al the map polls

[queen pendant]

53 dollar tpm module and 15 dollars in shipping to play hr or arena I think Ive seen enough

[knotty pine]

go squire grab a halberd from gargoyle go down and get griefed by 4 ppl on it

[thin patio]

I reported a teamer last night woke up and looked to a permanent ban notification Lets GOOOOOO

[knotty pine]

u have been taught

[gritty sorrel]

Wrong lizard

The water lizard

[knotty pine]

rapier bard

and once u kill it get griefed by max pdr fighter/warlock

that swim same speed as u in plate

[gritty sorrel]

The lizard is the bigger issue for me there

[warm kraken]

arena pushed to may 29th? are we fucking joking?

[knotty pine]

the only problem will be top left attack and bottom left attack

[gritty sorrel]

I can like. 1/5 games get to 2nd phase but I cant survive the bubbles

[chilly crane]

hi guys happy market day

[knotty pine]

every other attack swim up or down whichever way his head is facing

use ctrl a lot in the fight

[pale hatch]

Is the Armory module in crypts like a rare spawn? Need it for a quest but haven't seen it once.

[knotty pine]

they made bubbles aids to break for some reason and never fixed it so

[stone panther]

like 1 in 5

[pale hatch]

so I'm just getting super unlucky then lol

[floral pendant]

Cant wait to play arena for about 8 days total of this 2 month wipe 😂

[queen pendant]

What good is market half the player base is banned from hr and arena XD

[pale hatch]

wdym??

[stone panther]

🥔 pc

[floral pendant]

Hes on drugs

[queen pendant]

Tpm 2.o is only in pcs made after 21

[knotty pine]

ik ppl on 2005 laptops playing hr bro

[stone panther]

'17

[queen pendant]

70 dollar part

[pale hatch]

so yeah, Crypt Armory is 1 in 5 chances to spawn so the game is just giving the middle finger for the fun of it then?

That tracks with my luck lmfao

[floral pendant]

Really only 1/5? Im still on that quest too

Funny cause i have hit rusty key in crypts a bunch this wipe i didnt know it was that rare to spawn

[pale hatch]

bruh I've been on it for a week now and haven't seen Armory ONCE

no joke

[edgy sable]

I wonder what the real solution is to that problem becasue its cool to explore a location but not cool to be stuck essentially grinding the location. Give the player that has the quest a higher chance to spawn on the map with said location ?

[signal sundial]

Should be 100% imo it has the rusty dopr

[floral pendant]

Ive seen it a bunch but only BEFORE i got the quest lol

[floral pendant]

Yeah but noone would use the ruins one then, id say should be %50+

[pale hatch]

If it is, I haven't seen it on my map despite staring at it for like 5 mins trying to see if I'm just blind or dumb

[signal sundial]

I mean I would as it has the red in the same room.

[signal sundial]

Sorry I feel it should be, not that it actually is

[floral pendant]

Ig yeah, i do most of the time but if ur on trios and your team is caught down there its joever

[pale hatch]

The Armory was the friends we made along the way all along.

[signal sundial]

Depends on your comp but yeah

[thin patio]

I think next wipe we deserve to get a couple of arena sets during SSF i want SSF arena so badly
