[cold perch]

I’m crying

Anyone still playing the game is trash

[uneven swan]

the water map wouldnt be so bad if water wasnt so ass. if you are bobbing on surface you cant loot or interact with anything, and your spells get cancelled but consumed

[tawdry sun]

honestly so surprising people havent given up on this yet

[icy mango]

Life gets also darker and darker

[royal cloak]

Same. I stopped playing when SDF was like “idc im making it my game idc what the players want” (they removed solos and duos and if you went in solo you’d have to face trios essentially)

[crude flare]

Ill come back when SSF is account based

[royal cloak]

Nice name 😂

[glacial cape]

Not sure why people claim this when the two games aren't similar in any way

[prime pollen]

facts also arc raiders is boring after lvl 30

[pure wigeon]

tik tok brain

[woeful jungle]

looter? extraction? pvpve? not similar in any way? big brain man over here

[glacial cape]

Arc raiders is boring period. No one wants to fight. It's all free kits running around. Oh boy, I get to loot computer parts and then never use them

[marsh hinge]

yo is there a headshot bug?

got 1 shotted by a demon dog and i ahd 160hp

[prime pollen]

the loot is literally doodads and knickknacks. cant stand it

some thingamabobs too

[glacial cape]

Lots of games have loot. Lots of games have pvpve. Lots of games have a mechanic where the match ends. It doesn't make them feel similar at all

[woeful jungle]

you said they were not similar in any way you douche muncher. Crawl back in your hole

[verbal marten]

Bro you probably played for less than 50 hours and left because you were doing basic shit and not trying to find actual good loot or learn about Blueprints in the game.

[glacial cape]

Are you mad because I said something about the most casual and boring extraction game ever released?

[woeful dagger]

What yall mad about today?

[prime pollen]

do you also think AOE 4 and dark souls are similar too?? i mean they both have swords soo

[verbal marten]

most boring extraction shooter yet it’s top 5 on steam lmao

[glacial cape]

There is no "good loot" in that game. The gear gap is non-existent. You can run free kits and kill "juiced" players all day. It's why there is no excitement when finding loot in that game

Sorry I'm just stating facts

[prime pollen]

do you think the masses typically pick good games? do you like fortnite cause if numbers talk then it's the best game ever

[verbal marten]

lol nah they never do. All my friends play League while i play Deadlock when it comes to mobas

[prime pollen]

oh i thought you were being sarcastic my b

[woeful jungle]

have fun on your dungeons and dragons space map buddy

way better than arc raiders youre right

[verbal marten]

You obviously don’t understand the value of bps. I got a tagging grenade and blaze grenade bp so I search for oil and sensors now to make a ton of them which made some loot actually worth finding.

[prime pollen]

how much arc raiders have you played

[coarse star]

Raiders is 3rd person camp looking around corners sim

[prime pollen]

scum is still the only game that ever did 3rd person correctly, just sucks that it's a janky pile

[verbal marten]

it does have that issue. But if you have tagging grenades it kinda helps you

[past remnant]

you obvioously dont understand how radical and extremist the people who camp this discord are. You will never get a point across in here lol

[verbal marten]

oh i know, i just like making them look dumb to everyone else lol

[glacial cape]

Correct. Thanks

[verbal trench]

how much would u take for a epic padded leggins with +3 Agility. +3 Strengh and 1.8 Headshotbonus?

[verbal marten]

Nearly everyday I try to save more people from this game. But they would rather play a terrible game that will only get worse

[prime pollen]

making it seem really dramatic. we just want a game we like to be less shit and while rare, sometimes they listen

[coarse iron]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1068515318533730344/1163474825394802738/IMG_0200.gif?ex=653fb55e&is=652d405e&hm=8aa436c15161f47857ae7c3e3cd7c4937d3a39919b5c07e70b1ddf27735e9ce5&

[past remnant]

well the game is not terrible. The game concept is fantastic. This team who is making the game is actual dogwater and its frustrating

[prime pollen]

the team is likely largely fine. it's the management that is failing the team and us

[coarse iron]

the game was really good in the beginning i wished they could have focused on building up instead of building wide

[verbal marten]

Concept is great, but even the greatest concepts crumble under a shit foundation

[woeful jungle]

if youre a simp it is most people play the game normally though

[prime pollen]

so wrong lol. most people take every little advantage they can and camping 3rd person is the most obvious, apparent advantage. if you dont do it, youre actually just trash lol

[woeful jungle]

you could argue that this game is a "sit behind the door with rupture" simulator

[carmine void]

Who adds unfishable fish into a game? Absolute madness.

[verbal marten]

Building wide is the exact issue with this game. They want to add worthless shit like fishing and gathering hall instead of add gameplay items to make the pvp less unbearable

[carmine void]

Major L take
Hella pond locked mentality

[coarse iron]

give bard a gun

[carmine void]

Need an angler class drop next wipe or the game might be done tbh

[robust vale]

Sadly most people are bad at the game , and they farm s2r cuz they all poor , dead lobbies in hr

[verbal marten]

I mean im not surprised people are bad at the badly designed video game

[prime pollen]

arena is the best part of DaD, it should be open 24/7 and should be the focus of the game

[grim wave]

most ppl in most games are 'BAd" why you think LoL expanded the brackets

[carmine void]

REMOVE the MOBS from the ARENA. Add a LAKE to the ARENA. Add FISH to the LAKE. Make ARENA into a new mode called FISHING COMPETITION. 🎣 🐟

[prime pollen]

-1

[coarse iron]

i just think extraction is too niche of genre there isnt much room for more than 1 or 2 games and arc raiders is the hotness right now

[past remnant]

wait they really added fishing?

[prime pollen]

nobody said that

[carmine void]

Arc raiders needs to add fishing before it meets the same fate as DaD

[coarse iron]

fishing is the worst mechanic in any video game and im tired of pretending otherwise

its just gambling in water

[glacial cape]

The PVP is super fun if you aren't bad at it

[grim wave]

there is room, but arc hit on the more casual player better (on launch) . Also they havent completely chnaged the game 3-4 times also come ppl just prefer guns over swords and spells.

[carmine void]

You and dignity destroyer should make out sometime and talk about how much you hate the world together would be a good hang maybe spend the day out on the lake in a pond prowler 10 swapping spit

[prime pollen]

something good arc raiders has done is expand the genre to a lot more people who never would have tried tarkov. it could have a trickle down effect if DaD can make a good patch and do advertising properly. dont hold your breath

[coarse iron]

i would rather respect the beauty of god's underwater creations than wreak havoc in it with man made tools

[woeful jungle]

SDF will continue to run this game into the ground its never gonna change I held the line for as long as I could stand it

[grim wave]

agreed, also GET RID OF CIRCLE FFS

[coarse iron]

that is true

[rustic jay]

when is wipe?

[grim wave]

prob in jan or feb, was probably supposed to be sooner...

[carmine void]

Maybe he runs it so far into the ground that we find water… and maybe that water has life in it? Plankton, bacteria, maybe some fish?? Idk could happen tho

[woeful jungle]

get ready for the semi semi semi semi semi wipes to roll in so they can finish up moon mountain

[past remnant]

you know what, i think youre right. Fishing is what this game needs. Then we need to be able to craft in the dungeon and mine stuff. Then we can craft armor and weapons and make a base in the dungeon. That would breathe fresh air into this game

[supple shard]

Just bought the legend pass or whatever

[round dune]

I feel like it needs to be a bit more than a extract game to make a comeback

[supple shard]

Gotta get my first complaint in. Hope this game has a player base for long enough to get my moneys worth

[carmine void]

I want a log cabin

[elfin burrow]

Only if I can mine through walls.

[glacial ravine]

Game sucks, they'll never figure it out. Arc has players because they care about their playerbase. SDF actively made a vast majority of the playerbase quit, knowing full well what he was doing when he did it, and was completely fine with that. Now we're sitting here surprised no one has come back, when they all got slapped in the face by the lead dev. This game is dead.

[low delta]

bro this game is so dead man take so long to find a game for anything but solos

so sad its such a good game

[carmine void]

Care about their game? Yeahh that’s why the last five raids I’ve been killed by some artist who’s been hiding in the walls for 20min lmfaoooo

[junior hound]

Man this fkin gold disappearing bug when game crashes is going to make me quit I swear. Game crashes often, shit happens. But what in the spaghetti code ahh causes it to empty my rightmost chest of ALL its gold content every single time jesus christ

[glacial ravine]

I don't know how you dying to a cheater means Embark doesn't care about their game.

[quick tapir]

Wait you went to the same one spot where you can get in the wall 5 times? Thats dumb af

[noble bough]

Because players have been asking them for weeks to fix the zip line glitch in stella montis

[glacial ravine]

At least they haven't been asking Ironmace for years to fix the problems with their game.

They've already said they're trying to fix out of bounds bugs, but it's not an easy fix. We've already seen them add firetraps to locked rooms, they'll probably do something about it as soon as they can.

[glacial cape]

How is it not an easy fix lmao

[tawdry lotus]

I see nothing has changed with IM lol

[restive kettle]

Bunko game I’ll stick to my guild wars

[shrewd plume]

Why would they buff sorc, are they that acoustic?

[restive kettle]

I rather play dark and darker mobile lowkey

[shrewd plume]

just sell the game to a competent company at this point

[glacial ravine]

Because they've said it isn't. Idk go code it for them if you think you can do better.

[restive kettle]

When is AD MORTEM coming out 😢

[wind juniper]

sorc was and still is trash

[clever cloud]

They gave us a water map without fishing 🗣🗣🗣

[wind juniper]

but imagine if they gave us fishing with no water to fish in

[clever cloud]

fishing grounds module in crypts

[limber cairn]

This is the real crime Ironmace committed

[clever cloud]

Has no fish but it is a fishing spot i guess

[wind juniper]

that would’ve been goated

give us fishing, give us a fishing spot, leave out the fish

[clever cloud]

Also they showed off a pipe emote in like the play tests. I wanna get geeked and fish cmon sdf

[burnt citrus]

SHOULD A BONK WIZ FIGHT BARBARIAN?

[clever cloud]

Is the bonk wiz goated with the sauce?

[tawdry lotus]

Bonk wiz dumps on barb

[brave haven]

useless SSF if not able to transfer an item to another character. More than useless it becomes a pain when it should be fun. Basic gaming rules

@vale oar

sup big dawg lmk if youre still feeling generous

what time does arena open?

[drifting scaffold]

tmrw +1 hour

[indigo nexus]

[mystic siren]

does arena come out tonight

[fallen crypt]

no but you do

lightweight yeah buddy woooooooooo

ain’t nothing but a peanut wooooo yah buddddyyyu

[azure flint]

When is wipe

[edgy musk]

Yall have Stockholm syndrome

[fallen crypt]

your a line holder that’s like volunteering to sit on a hydraulic bicycle without a seat for 3 hours and smiling about it

[trail arrow]

Chat we should tell sdf to add grenades to see if he actually does it

[warm fable]

[shrewd escarp]

when are they gonna fix frost zombie spawning in map wasting my faustian bargain

do these people play their own game because it doesn't seem like it

[white slate]

lol 1700 players is crazy work

[coarse shuttle]

jeez the game really died off, sad I had such high hopes for this.

[carmine void]

fish and fisher

[mighty sparrow]

no

[warm fable]

give me my fog of war back

[foggy vortex]

what is state of game like these days 🙂

[small gate]

so we have to unequip our gear then reequip it every floor for stats to work... interesting

[viscid holly]

Even after the patch

[blissful mirage]

why is bone powder so expensive?

[dapper pike]

looking for quest items on the water map sucks so much. spend a few minutes getting to the place where the thing is supposed to be, spend a few minutes clearing mobs, thing doesnt spawn, go to extract. repeat 100 times

[pseudo osprey]

is the game still down? I cannot connect.

[warm fable]

• devs destroy game
• community hates them
• devs fix game
• community hates them

[thick owl]

its used to craft the fangs of death necklace

[pseudo reef]

does anyone actually like the arena changes? i just finally got some decent arena kits and now midwipe they're changing it to SSF solo queue or some shit

[heady grove]

fix?

[visual swallow]

super dumb changes

[steady ravine]

well i think everyone will be more forgiving if those devs dont keep update sth we dont ask for

[rain bloom]

Any1 know what my best bet for finding PvP in oce is this late in wipe? Should I play norms or hr? And which maps, or should I just swap to another region and if so which will have the least lag?

[astral escarp]

When will this season be OVER??

[warm fable]

I think arena change is good

[warm fable]

Early January

[astral escarp]

finally

[potent jasper]

NOBODY PLAYS THIS R3TARDED GAME ANYMORE

[steady ravine]

same, i do enjoy the point of SSF u know keeps the RMT kit away, but they should done this after the wipe, its making all my efforts meaningless

[broken ravine]

yo boys how do I dodge the freezing attack of the cyclops?

[warm fable]

Yea kinda. But it's end of the season who cares.

[astral escarp]

It's a cone radial attack, just get close and be on either side of the eye
Same thing with the Troll Cave Roar attack
< imagine this as an example
🔺

[broken ravine]

thanks bro

why the hell is right click not looting now ?

it drops my items on the ground lol

[pastel elm]

sdf's vision

[broken ravine]

bro wtf is this

when I right clic a valuable it says you can't equip this item lol XD what the hell

[woven widget]

thats kinda accurate, its a very wide cone on cyclops that almost covers the entire front of him vs a smaller cone that covers just ahead of troll

[pastel elm]

yeah its a bug thats been around since before the games release and never got patched, but now its perma locked on

gotta love it

[woven widget]

its better than that bug that makes you cast spells/block/secondary attack while looting that they totally patched

[crude blaze]

this game is so fun >~<

[broken ravine]

bruh this is dumb af

also I keep crashing mid game with no error messages

[plain valve]

Anyone can tell me if there an incoming wipe or if it been done recently?

[pastel elm]

personally i liked it when the longsword gave 50 movespeed

or one of the 12 times where putting a campfire down crashed the entire server

[woven widget]

I cant wait for another campfire glitch during hotfix 103

[broken ravine]

its crazy how we can send rockets to mars, build robots and ai, but can't fix a lil 3d pvp game

[woven widget]

sdf isnt a rocket scientist

[frosty wharf]

Hopeful, I'd bet next patch arena will be more like 'you can only use gear found by one randomly selected person that isnt you + the number of players on each team is random'

[prime pollen]

2800 an hour ago, maybe it's time to open arena 24/7 and stop with SSF cause no one wants to go find shit

[woven widget]

I like the arena changes

[frosty wharf]

tell me you were 1600 rating w/o telling me

[woven widget]

either, make arena open all week or make it ssf. I dont care if arena is the side mode to the main game or its own main game

[prime pollen]

tbf staying low makes finding games easier

[woven widget]

plus it makes my teammates less mad when I play spear fighter with perfect block

[frosty wharf]

i just think its comical they want to test something, dont use the test server as usual, and because of the change will probably have at best half the people to test their horrid "arena season 8"

want everyone on an even playing field? wipe the test server and tell people smth needs testing

do that shit 3 times a week for all i care

[gritty ermine]

Lag and lags

[sleek lark]

arenas out?

or tomorrow?

[elfin burrow]

It's not a test. They've done ssf plenty of imes, they know what happens, but they're doing it anyway. A test is something to see what happens, we already know.

[sleek lark]

so no one can tell me if arenas is up?

[broken pagoda]

Arena is up

[sleek lark]

ty

[broken pagoda]

Me when I misspread information

[sleek lark]

im just trusting you im at work rn so if it is it is, if its not whatever ill still run the dungeons

[elfin burrow]

These pos huntress quests, go get a WHITE scroll. Force me into no loot mode.

[vague adder]

Does PVE have goblin returns

I just died with my 100k kit because the game was fucking bugged

I couldn’t swing my sword or interact with anything

[lusty portal]

can't find any game into HR malestrom 10min+ wait am i alone ?

[sleek lark]

pve does have goblin returns, gotta wait for the dungeon to close

[sharp harbor]

100k kit for pve LOL

[sleek lark]

whats wrong with that? i run a 200k DB kit when im questing in PVE

[elfin burrow]

I mean, pve is for testing kits and questing. Facetanked warlord for that one and that kit isn't close to cheap lol. Sometimes you just want to chill.

[frosty wharf]

I'm 100% sure you good, I wasnt paying attention and just hit Quit Game a while back and still got my stuff, just takes a while

[elfin burrow]

Just don't hop off the game. Gobby hold your stuff for like an hour.

[dreamy vine]

Right wish there was button to reset to that value

[dreamy vine]

Was it hr pve

[timber orbit]

i fw anything ssf heavy

[misty ridge]

Normals Adventure Mode? Yes.
High-Roller Adventure Mode? No.

[glacial cape]

what about bbw heavy

[near tree]

been a couple months since i last played, hows the game going?

[glacial cape]

about the same. Game is still fun, development is going nowhere, community is sour

[elfin burrow]

Aren't all bbw heavy?

[timber orbit]

rather disappointing mid wipe patch, map selection back in HR, player counts stable but not very high currently, arena about to undergo massive changes becoming SSF again and capped at epic gear in preparation for the mode getting real rewards, water map was changed a lot but frankly i haven't touched it since before the changes

also they greased a lot of the leather gear with oil. it shiny now

[elfin burrow]

Also, gems are back to half-assed rolls, so crafted gear is back to being subpar to, "I got lucky or played too much for my health and got all good base rolls, gear.

[timber orbit]

yeah i forgot to mention that part, though the only relevant stat you can't actually gem is all atts and raw stats

so if you shop for those stats you can't gem and then gem what's left, you still save a lot vs. just buying the bis

[elfin burrow]

You can gem most relevant stats, but it's back to being lower than base roll numbers, so it's still useless for competitive play.

[vague adder]

I was treating something out

[tidal badger]

yes but not hr pve

[gritty ermine]

This new update ruined performance for watermap. Low fps and stuttering

[long mantle]

When wipe.

[trim idol]

all maps lowk

[trim idol]

i had to lower graphics setting for it to run smooth

[frosty wharf]

perks still broken?

[gritty ermine]

Oh hell nah okay @proud copper revert this update

[lusty portal]

am i the only one who can't find any games into solo HR maelstrom ? 15Min+ wait and still no games

[trim idol]

revert aint in his vocab twin

[gritty ermine]

I still had lags even in 1920x1080

[trim idol]

yikes

[final monolith]

i like cheese

[pastel elm]

💀 I wonder why, that map seems really fun to pvp on

[elfin burrow]

If by fun you mean chaos, then yes. Evey match there is just an ocean graveyard. SSo much fighting in the middle.

[gritty ermine]

Watermap lags mad aggressive since this update, especially the whole area around skull island including stingray

[pastel elm]

Water map pvp is braindead, whoever has the most move speed wins. Can't play around it because there is no doors or obsticles in the water. Half the spells also dont work but rangers can still shoot arrows

On other maps you can fight in specific rooms where certain spots give you an advantage allowing for strategy, in the water there is no strategy

[tidal badger]

he only knows how to backhandedly apologize after sinking the playercount to 0

[pastel elm]

Strategy is just avoid water or die by cancer

[elfin burrow]

TBF, the water just shows the incredible imbalance more clearly. Either be able to just run at people and win, or die.

[pastel elm]

Nah other maps you can play around it with doors and jumping across obstacles using the terrain

Water you are just fucked

[elfin burrow]

The movespeed meta was a thing long before water. It's always been the best stat. It's just proven more.

[pastel elm]

Even if you find terrain there is a 99% chance ur gonna bug to oblivion trying to get out of the water and die anyways

[trim idol]

don't like the idea of a dungeon crawler not being based in a dungeon

[dreamy vine]

🧀

[jolly walrus]

When is the end of rank this season

[shrewd plume]

lets kill the game even more! buff sorc!

NVM I DID YESTERDAY LOL -SDF

[timber orbit]

ensure party fill is disabled and try again

oh i missed the solo part apologies 🙏 sorry for the ping

[lusty portal]

i was into Duo looking for someone instead this is why can't find games ty anyway :3

[timber orbit]

oh sick, i was correct but with bad information! 🤣 glad you figured it out and good luck with your games friend!

[lusty portal]

[trail magnet]

for the new Arena changes, self found = minted by that character?

[neon kite]

Yes sir

Also , whoever here killed stingray in your opinion should I use the bard or longsword fighter to learn ?

[delicate ibex]

Water map was peak gameplay when you could be an Olympic swimmer pirate and kill penguins

[marble pond]

another teamer in solo and guess where theyre from?

[lusty portal]

earth?

[trim idol]

holy fuck i play hr so i can fight people not run the fucking mob gauntlet

[sweet crane]

hey does blunt weapon master perk works on magic staff? ya or nah

[trim idol]

test it dawg

[final monolith]

i think it should, let me know if you test it

[sweet crane]

it doesn't

[final monolith]

rip

[trim idol]

thanks i was wondering if it worked too lol

[final monolith]

ty fr info saiki 🙂

[coarse moon]

"The gear limit for this Arena season will be capped at Epic gear and only self found items will be retained upon a loss." looted but no name still loss ?

[sweet crane]

devs are cooked, cuz it should be, blunt mastery works on quarterstaff

[final monolith]

:/ yea

[trim idol]

its been chopped for ages now, "sdf's vision" tho

what a shame that hes blind

[hardy raft]

No, it's stick mastery ask Pete to ask sdf

[rustic void]

when does game wipe

[trim idol]

ask sdf he might know

[velvet abyss]

sdf mentioned 😻

[primal sigil]

yoo someone tell me player pop

[velvet abyss]

2k but it says 1.3k are in lobby

[neon kite]

Can someone help me learn stingray

[misty thunder]

Multiclassing when?

[trim idol]

when they want more people to leave the game

[misty thunder]

We're at rock bottom, its only up from here

[trim idol]

sdf seems to always make it worst dawg

and who the hell desinged the leave and quit game buttonsa cuz WHY is quit game so much larger and in the spot where leave game should be

[neon kite]

Yo can you help me w stingray?

[nocturne scarab]

So, I was looking at some photos -- and as it turns out? There's a whole bunch more layers below rock bottom.

[glacial cape]

No one wants this. Anyone who says they do is trolling.

[nocturne scarab]

Not to alarm you or anything

[misty thunder]

But I want it

[glacial cape]

No, you don't. You're just trying to be funny

[nocturne scarab]

• We're bringing back multiclassing and we're taking away the limited tokens, granting full customization range.

• We also removed the MS, PDR, and MDR cap for all classes respectively.

[glacial cape]

• We're banning anyone who mentions bringing back multiclassing.

[nocturne scarab]

• Now introducing quiver.

🤔

[copper cave]

why is the water map fps ass

[nocturne scarab]

less walls to obscure LOD and render

[misty thunder]

I think had it been much more limited it could have good. I atleast want it added back to the test servers since they don't use it anyway

[nocturne scarab]

did i get baited
man im dumb

[glacial cape]

Your PC is bad

[nocturne scarab]

I know this game is a fiction and you can make it however u want but I feel like it has no place in this universe and every second its here im reminded that class/skill tree/etc still isnt here

kind of reminds me of URF

[copper cave]

better than yours, always could be wrong but a 9800x3d isnt a bad cpu

[misty thunder]

I'd be just as happy with a skill tree or subclasses. Anything to play classes a little bit more differently or to lean further into a class's strength. What's URF tho?

[nocturne scarab]

seasonal fun mode in league where the CDR rate is turned up to something like 90% so you can machine gun your spells

the obvious non serious mode

🤞 big debt cleared we'll see

[strange sage]

the last 2 times we had multiclassing, it went very poorly

[misty thunder]

Seasonal multiclassing would be nice, that's what I thought they'd use the 2 week break between seasons for. Not just multiclassing tho, unique arena too and maybe other fun game modes

[strange sage]

i miss artifact arena, it was fun for the 1 week we had it

[misty thunder]

I agree completely. But if the test servers were used properly it mightn't had been so broken.

[strange sage]

lol, test servers

[misty thunder]

I don't understand why they don't use it :( I feel like alot of hold the line buyers probably wouldn't care if they let anyone use it. The game would be much better off for it

[strange sage]

its not hold-the-line users only

pretty sure anybody with legendary edition can

[misty thunder]

Ain't that the hold the line edition?

Oh nvm. I bought the game way before they made it free mb

[strange sage]

No.
Theres 3 seperate editions:
Hold The Line (Limited Time, only available during the torrent days)
Legendary (The $30 varient that gives access to extra features)
And F2P

[limber parcel]

when does season end or when is wipe

[strange sage]

we dont know

[rigid swan]

Is arena only on weekends?

[glacial cape]

Most likely in about a month

[sudden hatch]

damn i just found some arena bis heavyboots

2 dex and action speed w some other stuff

#loaded !!!!

[marble pond]

anyone playing oceanic wanna run duo

[glacial cape]

damn this discord has died down

[sudden hatch]

what we doin chief

[zenith ruin]

anyone wanna trade me a viola for a cinder or kumas? the cinder is ass but im really trying to build a kit lol

kumas fang* mb shoulda added that

[gritty ermine]

Watermap lags like shiit now

[sleek dirge]

got 2 teamers in solos banned actual W for devs

[marble pond]

keen for anything tbh

[gritty ermine]

Lag and stutter

[crude blaze]

@untold slate >~<

[rotund ether]

Can anyone tell me if stingray lag is fixed yet?

[gritty ermine]

Nope, still lags like shiit

[rotund ether]

Thanks bro

It was unplayable yesterday, everytime the boss would do final phase would lag so hard my screen would freeze then im dead

[neon kite]

L manz

[rugged breach]

when is wipe?

is it soon

[sudden hatch]

should be inna month orso

[zinc trench]

guys is this normal i played over 15 runs didnt meet anyone

[safe finch]

Has anyone gotten a Named in the past 2 weeks in duos, my buddy and i are on a 143 boss/SK room hits and have yet to get a named? only in duos tho, we have gotten named in solos and trios

[bronze spear]

Tomorrows arena is gonna be the same right?

legendary bought items

[nocturne scarab]

ye, a few times early 5AM PST ish just a couple days ago*

[wheat smelt]

yea until 19th for next arena update

[bronze spear]

so i got 3 more ''good'' arena days

dope

[wheat smelt]

donate your arena kit to arougue then call it a season lol

[bronze spear]

to a rogue?

id rather vendor it

or run it in dungeon xD

[woeful badge]

hey all, coming back to the game I achieved demigod in ea season 6, but never redeemed the rewards. my account says that I did though, however they are not apprearing in my inventory. anywhere I can file a ticket?

[bronze spear]

u have to actually redeem them on the leaderboard screen

[woeful badge]

thats what I mean when it says my account says that I did though; when looking at the ea season 6 rewards, they are all marked with a checkmark, but nowehre to be found in my inventory

[sudden hatch]

thats basically donating it to a rogue bruh ur gonna get landmined

[bronze spear]

what if i want them to try

[sudden hatch]

try to landmine you???

[bronze spear]

ye

[sudden hatch]

i mean they definitely will

i see so few rogues running nohide.... everyones a coward nowadays

[bronze spear]

i know right

if this game gives u a way to play like a lil b people WILL use that way of playing

[strange sage]

i see more rogues and druids in squire just ratting, then actually playing the game

[sudden hatch]

ratting in squires is SO boring oh no you got me enjoy my gray loot

ill be DAMNED before i pick hide and ambush

cut throat n rupture 4 lyfe

[bronze spear]

i dont play rogue at all

4 lyfe

[glacial cape]

It's all dependant on what mode you're playing. In solos hide is broken and unnecessary, in trios rogue needs hide to be doing anything useful

[bronze spear]

wait no pickpocket is funny

[sudden hatch]

i be doublejumping around corners.... i be sneaking.... i be throating the wizards and rangers... i be demolishing backlines

[bronze spear]

u got 2 hand crossys and a million throwing knifes

[sudden hatch]

and i also play duos so nohide rogues kinda viable

[glacial cape]

To clarify, I mean high level trios play. Not whatever squire bs you're running.

[bronze spear]

aaaaaand we have to go that route again

[bronze spear]

to clarify, i think you a twink for that

[strange sage]

I find hide rogues more useless in trios.

[glacial cape]

Thanks vro

[bronze spear]

i got u homie

[sudden hatch]

what classifies play as high level cuz idk i dont like taking the game too seriously

[graceful wyvern]

Solo bard queueing in squires is insane, runs the whole spectrum of emotions

Every stage of grief and ego death (not really im still an entitled bhole)

[sudden hatch]

bard is so fun i love my little twinkish musickplayer

yes.... play your tunes.....

[graceful wyvern]

uwu

[sudden hatch]

i just like my stiletto too much to play anything else...

how it feels to run 115 hp 45as 9true rogue in highroller

[graceful wyvern]

Gross someone get me the broom

[jaunty willow]

why they fucked up dnd so bad

[rugged breach]

what is the whole gear change for arena?

[jaunty willow]

too fucking unoptimized

getting below 70 fps in water map with a shitting 5070

[sudden hatch]

you are not sweeping me

[bronze spear]

maybe its not supposed to be shitting?

[nocturne scarab]

do i have that option too?

and preferably not in the figurative and more final type of sense

[bronze spear]

i was thinking more literal

[nocturne scarab]

Are you sure?

[bronze spear]

i think GPU's are not supposed to shit no?

or is mine not working properly?

maybe i have the faulty gpu

[nocturne scarab]

Look man, I just want to know if it's possible for me in the literal sense.

[bronze spear]

to take a shit?

[nocturne scarab]

Never again.

[bronze spear]

what happened to you on the toilet?

Uncle bobby?

[nocturne scarab]

Nah I was never that pretty.

[errant isle]

Just had to 1v5 in norms. Cant a man wear some gear without being teamed on lol!

[bronze spear]

i think you are a beauty innit

[bronze spear]

blue bis xd

[errant isle]

Brave hunters, death step, and tri pelt doublet. They wanted me!

[bronze spear]

i wanted to make a 1k gold joke

but man you were someones payday

[errant isle]

Time to change maps lol

[bronze spear]

or maybe not waste so ''much'' gold on norms

u can defo just do some mid hr kit

[sudden hatch]

i would murk the queen if i saw her in tripelt deathsteo brave hunters

[errant isle]

I dont even know if its good for hr. Im mimicking a kit but the one im copying was full unique. So cant get full potential. Plus I never play cleric so im not too good at it

[bronze spear]

how much gold do you have to make kits?

or link me what u trying to mimic, i bet u can fit that in a cheaper version for like 15-25k

[errant isle]

Like zero now. I play for like an hour or two a day is all. Ill probably play way more next wipe. And yeah, instead of unique id just do full epic. It would be good enough

Epics are infinitely cheaper than unique and legendary. Plus the gems are way cheaper for socketing

[bronze spear]

i mean u can get legi gems for 100 a piece and its just a 50 gold socket diff

[jaunty willow]

nah its rocking but unreal 5.5 made it so not optimized

[bronze spear]

ye ik its ass

but noone wants to play on that shitty map anyways so most of us are good

[jaunty willow]

i mean yah random maps are now gone

[bronze spear]

and please dont make em return

[jaunty willow]

I am just wondering why they fuk up their own game.

[bronze spear]

they been doing it over and over for years now

[jaunty willow]

every big update they just

[bronze spear]

welcome to IM

[jaunty willow]

🙂

[bronze spear]

trust the ''vision''

and paul, aka SDF

[errant isle]

The gems themselves cost more though with only 1 stat increase though

Does cloak of darkness have more ms than adventure cloak? Rare

[dim gate]

gonna hang out in tavern table 1 if anyone wants to hang out maybe watch star trek

[bronze spear]

if 1% yes

[dim gate]

[north raptor]

[molten iris]

same issue with asia which i come from. I recommend play na server, its fair atleast, and connection is not bad

[fiery frigate]

Uh is there any server where dous is actually full?

[dim gate]

back in the day-day we were on the SA servers to avoid people

gonna get a snack

[long mantle]

Give us wipe

[bronze spear]

nonono thats a tissue

wipe your tears after seeing next patch notes

[misty thunder]

[wheat smelt]

No questlines giving named this season?

[ancient mortar]

[turbid elbow]

Skeleton Warlord: Bloodthirst, Fulgor, Viola, Kuma’s Fang, Kuma’s Claw
Ghost King: Soulscraper, Echo of Screams, Life After Death, Famine, Cinder, Deathbloom
idk wyvern unforch, think he drops bows, previous seasons it droped shields too, am unsure this one

[ancient mortar]

thank youuu

[warm fable]

Fog of war will save the game

[misty thunder]

Multiclassing will save the game

[warm fable]

Paul will save the game

[ancient mortar]

do you know if key rooms still drop named weapons and if so which ones?

[humble herald]

I dont think Gk can drop nameds

[turbid elbow]

yep Skull key room has a very slim chance to drop named(on the pedestal thing), idk if anything can drop or if there's a pool

[ancient mortar]

alright thank you guys

[humble herald]

But skull key have 7,5% and mystical gem have %

[turbid elbow]

do you know sir if there's a pool or if any named can drop in the skull key room? thanks

[ancient mortar]

is frozen key the same as skull key?

[humble herald]

I think so

[humble herald]

I think cinder,fulgor,lad,echo and more but dont know much locked rooms

[ancient mortar]

i love you

[humble herald]

Yeah i know

[ancient mortar]

https://tenor.com/view/fat-kanye-fat-kanye-shooting-laser-eyes-laser-eyes-kanye-shooting-laser-eyes-goofy-kanye-gif-8600106084735272055

damn

[humble herald]

But if you would need know more look at dark and darker wiki

[ancient mortar]

yeah i do but these drops havent been updated in like forever

[humble herald]

xD

[ancient mortar]

but again thank you very much

[humble herald]

For what?

[ancient mortar]

for giving me this information

[humble herald]

That would do 90% peapols in this server

[ancient mortar]

and i would thank them too

[humble herald]

BTW this is for evry one am probobly gonna quit dark and darker so if you want one warlock it DM me and person who will need it most will get it

[covert kayak]

so now with arena dead, how many people are like actually playing this game? maybe 7?

[humble herald]

Fr

[lusty portal]

arena aint dead

but SSF is killing US xD

[whole crag]

how bad is the player count now?

[dreamy vine]

warlock it

[forest parrot]

When is arena changing

[sudden hatch]

like 5.3k last i checked a couple hours ago

[woven widget]

Did you try checking announcements

[final monolith]

is it worth it to use judgment with a staff or a book? what type of dmg boost are we talking in a s2r scenario

[tough hinge]

how long til season ends?

and when is the next wipe?

[covert kayak]

thats total, not in dungeon i assume?

[drifting scaffold]

Like 1month give or take a couple weeks

[covert kayak]

what could be a reasonable explanation for those (way too) long wipe cycles. im pretty much done with the game anyways, so im trying to reflect with an objective eye. when objectivly the numbers at start of wipe are always much much higher (duh..) then why would a reasonable mind not just say: okay its normal that you get higher count at beginning, but why dont we try making shorter cycles so people will have a fresher start more often, which will then maybe keep them on the game for longer.

i mean the only logical reason to me seems like they need more time to fix certain stuff before next wipe. which seems a bit lame, since they have a big team of developers, and lets be honest, the content we get from wipe to wipe isnt really breathtaking.

or am i just giving too much leeway in trying to think about this rationally? are they maybe, just maybe ... just not good at what they are doing?

[elfin burrow]

Bruh, bugs get fixed LESS often after they multiplied the team by 12. Thinking a big team lets them fix issues in reasonable time is an old way of thinking.

They hired 90 interns with no skills and that's slowing things down. It's the only logical option.

[drifting scaffold]

they have never started a real wipe and “season” without some kind of content or major feature dropped along with it. they take a long ass time to develop that content or feature. it seems like it’s gradually getting faster but it’s very slow still

[sudden hatch]

in dungeon was uh 3k?

[turbid elbow]

bros cant code a bag in 2 years and you have expectations; talent tree in development btw since first playtest

[elfin burrow]

Talent tree lo. I'd love it but it's clearly not happening, just lie #125723596 from a game dev.

[steady peak]

stingray is a fucking terrible boss

Entirely rng dependant if you survive the last phase on any class but sorc

• a ton of gurrenteed damage

[drifting scaffold]

? It’s just like wyvern tho you gotta manipulate

[steady peak]

Ive killed the boss 500 times now i know

its a terrible boss

• this egg refuses to drop so i gotta keep doing it anyways

[forest yew]

i been playing dark since beta and ever since the era where mendo stopped playing it just went down hill, instead of releasing new maps that absolutely nobody likes and frozen map shouldve already given them enough confirmation they should just focus on their current maps maybe add event based map changes and fix the game itsself, they keep adjusting gear back and forth for no reason and waste their time

[drifting scaffold]

ppl like ice map tho idk what you mean

[forest yew]

yo bfr

[drifting scaffold]

all the maps need refreshing to the new standard

like the new modules in the maps are awesome. all the new abyss modules? bang. new inferno modules? bang

map content is worthy lol idk how you could argue different

[forest yew]

u lowkey just lost twin

[drifting scaffold]

Painful steps lowkey one of the best modules in the game

The abyss pillar room? Where the pillars slowly drop as you move close? fuckin peak

[forest yew]

nobody is looking for new map content the new map lasted a week and nobody is looking to play it anymore, they shouldve just focused on the best map this game has had, crypts

[covert kayak]

so i guess the general consensus is that they are just very bad at what they are doing (at least management).

[drifting scaffold]

yea bud let’s pvp at big wheel for the 15,000th time

[forest yew]

ye bud check every video anyone has ever had its in crypts

[drifting scaffold]

crypts needs an upgrade bad it’s boring

[forest yew]

when you can actually choose your map, its in crypts

[drifting scaffold]

ruins you mean, 1st layer and leave 🤣

the way you’re talking we would have never gotten ruins btw

[forest yew]

ye bro maybe you dont know but before adding ruins there was only crypts

[drifting scaffold]

that’s what I’m saying crypts isn’t even the best map out

[turbid elbow]

ruins sucks, crypts is peak

[patent turret]

y is arc raiders the best extraction shooter ever i mean dark and darker fell of for a long time and arc just took off and hasent had a player collaps yet

[drifting scaffold]

right now crypts is like 5th best map

[forest yew]

crypts is by far the best map in the game, its the only map where skill actually matters, keep yapping

[drifting scaffold]

“Skill” it’s all corridors or open spaces wdym

[pure plinth]

what is point of grey clarity now? its already over when u do sitting animation XD

[elfin burrow]

Too many cowards like seeing around corners to help them camp and get free kills.

[forest yew]

@drifting scaffold you joined 6/8/25 stop talking bro uve never seen crypts

[drifting scaffold]

wut

[patent turret]

nah people just bad and dont know how to use a game strategic advantages that were released wit hthe game

[forest yew]

you are brand new cquinn

[drifting scaffold]

bruh I played crypts when it was blue

[forest yew]

you cant actually judge how the game was becauyse u havent played it

when it was blue hillarious

[drifting scaffold]

You deadass joined almost a year after me wdym

[forest yew]

i joined this server 8/2023 btw and played beta

i played thru everything

[patent turret]

proof

[drifting scaffold]

lmao

[forest yew]

i cant send pictures or videos

[drifting scaffold]

look I’m sry ur fav map is neglected now and nobody goes there but u gotta be real, the level design in the game has improved over last 2 years and crypts needs upgrading

[forest yew]

but it dont matter twin i actually played thru all of thius game

dude look at the game

[patent turret]

nah just ur word and ur word seems trash with what cquinn is saying

[forest yew]

like what its so dead the only thing holding the players is the hope they actually get a brain and fix it back to what it was

[drifting scaffold]

back to what it was? like what do you even mean by that

back to +3 weapon dmg stack and buff ball? snooze bro

[forest yew]

bro the game was so much better back then maybe sometimes it was overpowered but check the players diff and the most important part is back then devs actually did something

[molten iris]

actually game still kinda fun cause its only extract game i can find. Just blame the game because i believe it can be lots better

[turbid elbow]

+5 additional phys dmg, +5 weapon dmg pants were more interesting than demon/undead damaga/reduction 100%

[forest yew]

and they kept adjusting it not just putting it back and forth,

idk if yall remember but back then warlock could 1 tap with boc with barely any gear and they did so much just to adjust it back to normal and all that to add a crystal sword that can 1 tap any living creature ✌🏼

#wizard message

[fallow umbra]

@proud copper @neon lynx @rugged kettle
@hexed adder wake up ladies and gents. so many missed opportunities.
open arena and let it run 24/7 like tarkov does. BSG ties its version of arena to the original game fairly well. this would inherently create many incentives to play both arena and your dungeon crawler. Create custom servers and different game modes for arena. Can’t balance the game? let the community do it and play the game how we want to play the game with custom “official” servers. This would also prove what works and what doesn’t work all while collecting the data and using it to make some healthy decisions for once. Also gives the community something to participate in and stay engaged. Revive your community by listening to what we have to say and watch how that positively impacts player count and overall moral.

[drifting scaffold]

you’re not comparing the same thing tho. today you’re hunting +3 agi +3 str

[forest yew]

let this guy be dev

[fallow umbra]

thanks much appreciated. you have to treat these things like a relationship bc it ultimately functions like one. communication respect, real passion and most importantly commitment. IM is lacking in all those areas. hence why i only play arena every other or week so now.

[forest yew]

the game is just not fun anymnore imo

[drifting scaffold]

ARE WE GOING TO GET COMPENSATION FOR THE 7 ARENA KITS IM GOING TO NOT BE ABLE TO USE NEXT WEEK? Or are just screwed like usual? Nice ass backwards development on this one. Ssf arena should have been at the BEGINNING OF THE WIPE!!!!!!

[quaint carbon]

Are we going to get penguin buffs?

[fallow umbra]

this is sdf’s vision. make it ssf to boost in dungeon player count. its all about numbers these days, not the community. dark and darker is becoming a compilation of poor decisions and ignorance. the legacy left behind wont be positive, rather an example of “what not to do” for future entrepreneurs

[quaint carbon]

Penguin. Buff it.

[azure heart]

Wait..they are actually making arena ssf? Well just ruined the only thing stopping me from uninstalling the game again

[upbeat tapir]

Damn bro relax lol

Im stoked to find an epic ssf kit, and im married with two kids I dont have time for that shit. But Ill be staying up late a few nights regardless 😈

[drifting scaffold]

I put mine together already. Took 20 min

[misty ridge]

I've crafted 14 grimmies without all Atts and one with so

20k spent so far

Probably have like about 16k in profit

So I'm -4k

And that's assuming every garbo ring would sell

• I'm not selling the all Atts lol

[hidden marsh]

does this game still wipes?

[hoary plume]

hey guys hows dark going. has it improved in the last 2 months

[stable hornet]

extraction slop

[keen zephyr]

The cycle is about every 3 months, so a guess would be January wipe

[pure onyx]

guys i got dc in match and in menu, it is only my network problem or someone also had same issue?

[woeful citrus]

Tbf you can still run them in hr but I get its not everyone's thing

[simple aspen]

arena is better with minted gear

[pulsar lantern]

true, if only didnt get changed mid-wipe

they have reverted it before when they tried

[simple aspen]

yeah it's not ideal to make it minted mid-wipe but they want to see how it goes, they said there will be rewards next season so kind of their last chance to make big changes / test things for arena

[pulsar lantern]

#📢announcements message

its so stupid actually

they do not care about the playerbase at all

[warped pond]

arena is buns

[pulsar lantern]

cant even see what they care about, cuz numbers are doing bad, players are showing negativity in every media possible (here, reddit, twitch, etc)

[pulsar lantern]

imagine how ass the regular game is if ppl preffer to play ranged damage spamm 3v3

[idle mauve]

Still wondering who Paul is

[pulsar lantern]

i think he is the anti-cheat guy

[simple aspen]

game would be so much better if they just nerfed the shit out of all ranged damage

[pulsar lantern]

gamemode where theres only melee, no frannies no nothing, at most you can throw torches

[simple aspen]

pure bliss

[dreamy vine]

It's mindless and stakeless so if course it appeals to a wider audience

[dreamy vine]

Need vpn for a little time

[low delta]

what is barb 1h meta rn after club nerdf?

[gaunt oracle]

welp, stingray is weird now. idk what they changed but 3 times now I've died to phase 3 while INSIDE a bubble. dead center of the bubble, receiving air, went in giga early to be sure... its happened 3 times now. W ironmace

[drifting scaffold]

[royal saffron]

any new content soon?

[shy sierra]

@proud copper @hexed adder stat tracked artifacts, thoughts? edit: blue name player btw

[misty ridge]

Imagine if it also had a list of everyone to carry it into a PvP dungeon attached that you could drop down

[shy sierra]

thatd be so cool

[plain abyss]

More artifacts for the top 1% of the base.

[drifting scaffold]

what about your 7 arena kits

[plain abyss]

cant use artifacts in arena

im gonna enjoy this last weekend of ACTUAL arena

[drifting scaffold]

but certainly with 7 arena kits you’re in the top 1% of the playerbase

[broken pumice]

how we livin folks

[hazy knot]

so how dead is the game

[drifting scaffold]

it’s a beautiful day

[pure wigeon]

kirk

[warm fable]

[gritty ermine]

the game lags like shiit now

stingray has like 20-35fps

when do we plan to fix that? @proud copper

[lofty scaffold]

What happened to the game?????

Why is it so empty?

[covert kayak]

wait, so arena this weekend is still "normal"? or already ssf?

[shrewd plume]

[formal inlet]

Remember when there was a message being typed in this discord every minute of every day to the point where they had to put a long message timer

[shrewd plume]

Imagine not being acoustic and trying to save the game

[formal inlet]

People used to argue and complain all day, every day. It showed that people cared. Now nobody gives a fuck because the devs don’t either

[shrewd plume]

Why would we care when sdf is an actual bot

Next idea might be to remove stats on gear

[formal inlet]

Lmao they already tried that and ruined their game. So many chances from them

[shrewd plume]

Lets buff range meta too

Im trolling i know they did twice already

[sleek fern]

Another terrible decision from our developer extraordinaire sdf for mid wipe

[shrewd plume]

A bunch of clowns losing to nexon (arc raiders)

[warm fable]

♻️

[shy sierra]

arc raiders more like tampon for my vagina

[open cape]

So like, is teaming just allowed in HR now? Because clearly you completely reverted all the stupid queue restrictions and people are just loading into goblin caves as 3's and either direct teaming, or faustian teaming. It needs to be bannable, and you need to enforce it. No anti cheat, no teamer banning, no stream sniper banning, like ... its just disgusting how little they actually care about the existing player base.

[clever cloud]

Norms has always allowed teaming chief

[open cape]

Sorry, not norms, in HR

[clever cloud]

Oh yeah nah those are filthy cheaters

[supple drift]

and quivers with multiple elements of arrows! Fire, Ice, Poison, etc

[high fiber]

did they fix the stats that were bugged?

[neat mesa]

Please do not avoid word filters. Use context clues please

[warm fable]

ok

weird

[turbid copper]

What yalls opinion on them making arena SSF mid season?

[mental stone]

has anyone had any issues with game/computer crashing with this new update to Unreal Engine?

[slim lion]

Crashing,lagging, stuttering you name it

[honest garnet]

Rank means nothing so I’m not really bothered by the change it’s kinda like they just added a new game mode, death to RMTers catch them in the dungeon with my old arena kit feasting.

[misty ridge]

pretty chill

(my kit was already ssf)

[mental stone]

I cant even get the game to start up before my computer crashes. Ive updated drivers, software, everything. Im trying re-downloading the launcher and the game rn.

[midnight granite]

anyone elses game just completely brick when trying to buy an item? lol...

[midnight granite]

yes. took ages to launch the game and it stalled my computer 100% cpu/gpu for like 2 minutes and randomly crashes when I do things in lobby lmao. I've got a nice pc too.

[gritty ermine]

lag and stutter: nice performance optimizations

[mental stone]

I dont have a top of the line PC, but i have a Radeon 6700xt, good processor, and 32GB of ram. It didnt happen until this last update

[drifting scaffold]

mid? bro we at the END

[carmine void]

Fish and fisher 🎣

[drifting scaffold]

[warm fable]

[mental stone]

Does anybody play on the steam version? Do you all run into any issue starting up/computer crashing?

[covert kayak]

that makes it even worse lol

[slim lion]

It's client side don't even sweat it man. Your PC is fine.

I thought it was my PC too I have the steam version. You know how it is at iron mace lol

[drifting scaffold]

why? they’re testing which ruleset to use for next wipe’s “arena season 1”

[errant skiff]

Is it just me or is there like a split second delay when you´re transforming as druid? It doens´t feel instant anymore after Hotfix #102

[covert kayak]

testing with which players? oh yeah the 6 people that still play arena every weekend? and probably wont even playing because their gearset is 90% market bought?

[white plume]

can i ask about optimization in this server? The hall of knights is death

[errant skiff]

Im not sure what ur asking. The hall of knights?

[white plume]

Pratically, the game run like shit. Can i ask help in this server? The hall of knights is kinda dead

it's just optimization

[errant skiff]

Yeah I know, whatever they did in Hotfix 102, they fucked it up. I have all my settings to low and medium. I can get the game run fine but it feels like im running on 30 fps.

[white plume]

it also freezes you smt and have ping pobblems?

[errant skiff]

I used to have stutters all the time, but I managed to fix that by tweaking settings like crazy both inside the game and settings outside the game.

[white plume]

please tell me, my games are literaly unplayable and i have all settings to low

[errant skiff]

If you have windows 11. Go to Settings - Search for Grafik settings, in there. You can choose Dark and darker and that it runs in high performance. Otherwise windows usually decides for you. This helped alot.

[errant skiff]

And in steam. Right click dark and darker, press Properties and in "Launch options" type in -useallavailablecores

[white plume]

i have it installed on blacksmith

[white plume]

you mean grafic settings?

[errant skiff]

Yes graphic settings. And blacksmith should have something similar to launch options

[polar oasis]

any1 fancy donating some loot to a young english man with 850 gold?

[errant skiff]

And in the game under Videos options. I actually use Antialiasing DLSS on Graphics to make it look way better

[white plume]

i don't care about looks

if it run it's fun

[errant skiff]

I sent you my settings in a message to you on discord

[errant skiff]

Yeah I understand, I also had an issue with it running like shit. This actually works for me though.

[split mirage]

when is the wipe?

[lusty sundial]

Usually each wipe last 3-4 months, next one is possibly in January!

[gritty ermine]

the game runs like shiit now

[half ermine]

Day 789 of praying SDF turns his brain on… chances are looking slim

[latent iron]

i used to get 400 fps now its stuck at like 180 to 210

[atomic schooner]

turn your framegen back on then

[obtuse tapir]

i would but unfortunately you are english

[drifting scaffold]

🤣

[polar oasis]

i never find english people in this game

[obtuse tapir]

too busy wetting people because they are from the wrong city block ig

[polar oasis]

everyone i run 9into always gear diffs me

[obtuse tapir]

just play s2r or better yet play arc raiders

[muted zealot]

gear diff is a thing but also out playing people is a thing; i just killed 2 geared wiz's in hr gobs without thirdpartying in squire bard gear

[polar oasis]

yeah i know

i just seem to always be the one getting rat rogues or druid players as a whole

thoise two classes make me hate the game smtimes

[muted zealot]

if you're playing longsworrd yeah those are the most annoying for sure

[polar oasis]

yeah not even

[surreal granite]

jgriffy was right about yall

[drifting scaffold]

what he say

[latent iron]

anyone got tips on finding the cuttlefish ?

[boreal spoke]

that guys never been right about anything, plus he plays gta roleplay all day every day so no opinion

[errant isle]

I love it when people say I suck and say they almost won. But they are dead and Im not. Doesn't matter if you almost won, you didnt.

[warm fable]

• Purge Shot now triggers on every second hit.
• Immortal Lament HP activation increased from 5% to 10%.
• The Rat's plague effect now ticks every 3 seconds, dealing 2 Dark Magical Base Damage over 40 seconds.
• The Penguin "Water Cannon" animation has been shorten

[mental stone]

Is there anyone that could help me figure out what is wrong with my game launching? Everytime i launch the game, my PC crashes.

This hasnt happend until the most recent update

[mental stone]

Ive updated drivers, pc software, deleted and redownloaded blacksmith, the game, and redownloaded even on steam and cant figure it out

[uneven swan]

why is my update 14gb?

seems big lol

[errant isle]

Whys everyone teaming everywhere?

[daring kraken]

yo gear glitch fixed orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[void bone]

i havent played in a while are the queue times just long now or am i queuing the wrong modes

[median beacon]

Usually queuing on NA servers is really fast minus potentially arena. What are you queuing?

[wind juniper]

the game is one breath away from being a corpse, might have an effect on that

[void bone]

i tried queuing on a few different maps for about 5 minutes each and got nothing

[zinc plinth]

ill play again once it stops being barb and barber

genuinely getting so tired of watching mfs press w with a club and win due to the fact barbs never die

[neat lintel]

genuinely, whats the point of bringing in good gewr to solos if a creep 10-step rogue kills you before youre able to react and before silence wears off

[light dragon]

game gettin DDOS'd?

[neat lintel]

game has the tarkov vibe of "I can gie at any point to anyone," excwpt artificially implimented through bad game design, w rogue

[zinc plinth]

Rogues can die in two hits to the head 78% of the time.

[swift coral]

sdf will make sure the game is fully buried dw

[graceful pond]

Rogue and every other class are just free food for druid

[craggy owl]

once the new arena comes out, if i craft/find an item on one character, can i use it in arena on another without losing it?

[tender turtle]

when will they fix the issue where the game sucks ass ?

[visual swallow]

they'll never remove the water map

[waxen anvil]

is it worth to farm named item with 500 luck?

[static fox]

No it’s found/crafted by character I believe

[tawdry lotus]

Luck is a myth, even iron mace can’t explain how it works

[waxen anvil]

i run 500 luck and never find the named but with 0 luck named sometimes drops

[drifting scaffold]

there was a streamer a while back who did 400+ luck and 100 ghost king runs. It roughly doubled artifact rate from normal

[nocturne scarab]

theres certainly not a pesti in us E crypts solo rn

[drifting scaffold]

they don’t explain it for a reason, but it’s also not that hard to figure out

[waxen anvil]

so you can get more artifact with luck yes?

[drifting scaffold]

yes

[waxen anvil]

ty

[coarse star]

How long ago was it. Cause luck has been changed a ton i dont trust it

[waxen anvil]

how much worth elven and pesti?

[drifting scaffold]

As far as I know, Luck stat has not ever been changed, only the “base” loot from diff layers and modes has. anyway the stream I watched was season 6 before the semi semi semis

[coarse star]

Luck completely stopped working at one point

And was changes a few times

A big recent test would be the only way to test and would need to be more than 100 kills imo

[drifting scaffold]

I mean do you have anything to back that up? 100 seems like plenty of ghost king runs to know the rate was increased from 400+ luck. The final number of runs was something like 130

and don’t you say the wiki people said so lmao

[coarse star]

I mean it was confirmed? Its extremely easy to test.

Luck make gold key drop rates go from 2 percent to 15
Percent and this was consistently tested on every key constantly

Luck was 100 percent not working for a period
And had been changed in patch notes

[coarse star]

Not rlly.
If you did that rn ite 1/33 for a named on ghost king and there would be a lot of variation in the amount even with luck

[drifting scaffold]

like I said this was about 6-9 months ago, during season 6. Are you saying Luck was significantly changed between then and now?

I’m talking about there being proof that it improves artifact drops significantly, in that test of over 100 runs it roughly doubled the appearance of artifacts. the sample size isn’t so small that single digits of variance would matter

anyway it’s still all RNG and the wiki team gave up on quantifying it instead of giving it their best shot. If you play the game and loot, you will see the patterns clearly enough

[dreamy vine]

anyone else dcing

[sacred halo]

because it's the only way they can win at this game

[quaint carbon]

yea

[woven widget]

why would you want it removed from s2r

[static zodiac]

Those who invested in their gold bullions will be very rich men soon

[woven widget]

I invested in tidestone

[minor eagle]

2k playerbase love to see this game makes bad dicisions slowly killing their own game like what are we doing iron mace?

[woven widget]

Theyre going fishing

[minor eagle]

[topaz kelp]

does anyone know if self crafted gear will count as "self found" for arena?

[dapper topaz]

Guys what Is the best way to get artifact in hr

[rich barn]

Sit behind the door of the boss room and wait for a team to kill boss then kill them 🙂

[warm fable]

I don't think new players are good enough to play with FOW and circle

[sudden hatch]

yes

[topaz kelp]

oh, so you could go with a fully self crafted gear into arena and not lose it?, that sounds good

[sudden hatch]

as long as it says found by slash crafted by ur guy

and it has to be the character you play on arena

[topaz kelp]

oh, so same character that crafts it has to use it?

[sudden hatch]

yeh

[topaz kelp]

good to know for the next arena patch

[cursive geyser]

Keep getting an installation integrity failed to verify error on the blacksmith launcher, ive attempted a fresh install of the entire launcher/game as well as scanning and repairing the game. Any ideas? I contacted support but that was all they told me to do

[gleaming thicket]

guys when is the wipe?

[median beacon]

You might want to try and get your game transferred to steam or something. Unfortunately I’m not sure if that’s possible or how to do that but it does sound like
Further support tickets are required

[drifting scaffold]

maybe you tried this but move the install to a diff drive?

[narrow inlet]

take this druid shi out the game.

[dreamy vine]

Try vpn its crazy how many things it can fix. Sometimes just turning it kn and off before logging in helps

[crisp bobcat]

I cant even play without VPN

It just doesnt lets me in the tavern from character choose menu for some reason

So i have to play 150-200ms games

Also, was there a wipe yet?

[viral oracle]

Does anyone know when whipe is?

[final monolith]

use steam maybe

[agile laurel]

whens the last time u all prayed to lord baby jesus? i pray u pray so we can all pray and praise the people who play this unplayable needing a wipe game

[final monolith]

praise be to the heroes that fall on the literal sword that is playing this sdf forsaken game

[agile laurel]

praise be

isp issue mine resolved itself after a patch or two

[gleaming gyro]

do you get your gear back if you fell into the void in pve mode

[rustic fable]

IF anyone here plays OSRS and wants to make some deals DM ME

[median beacon]

Yes

Actually idk I never tested it

Since it’s not a spell maybe it doesn’t. Good question

[crisp bobcat]

Still have to use vpn to play so...

[dreamy vine]

might reset riuter or change isp if can

[rotund stag]

how many player on ?

[crisp bobcat]

Didnt help, tried when this first time happened

Also what is ISP?

[woven widget]

ah hes a kid
ISP - internet service provider

[crisp bobcat]

I turned 18 today...

[woven widget]

then how the fuck do you not know what an isp is

[crisp bobcat]

Well, good question...

Never changed my provider, that might be the reason, also i doubt anything will change, thats probably because of recent changes in russian internet.

So ill just keep on using VPN, suprisingly its playable.

[dreamy vine]

vpn has saved many playtests and wipes for me 😅

[crisp bobcat]

Vpn is truly one of the most important PC tools to have nowadays

Cant even access discord, youtube and many other platforms without it.

[drifting scaffold]

my god really? damn

[errant isle]

Why do people get mad that I wear "gear" in norms when I can still easily die to squire if I play wrong? Sure have true or plus all or hp on everything is a bonus, but its still blue gear.

[ancient mortar]

yo how do i look at my stats again like how many of specific bosses i killed im slow i cant find it

[ocean sinew]

Guys multi classing will bring this game back

We all need to rally

[static zodiac]

To be fair I didn’t know THATS what isp meant until you said it just now

I just called it internet service provider

[ocean sinew]

We need to stand up to these devs so they stop killing there own game

[woven widget]

their

[gleaming bough]

is arena slef found items by the character that found them or account wide?
