the-tavern

[glacial chasm]

I can't even log into the game anymore, knowing the water map is a map, and that normals is a game mode ruins the entire door opening/door closing gameplay that I enjoy. I don't know what to do.

[viral creek]

trial wardens are newer wardens

langwin said it well

[flat harness]

Pve player take, what is your arena rating?

[gritty ermine]

arena is not even a good pvp benchmark lol

thats gear benchmark

[flat harness]

Another L take, go abuse water map because bad

[pastel elm]

woah all the sudden you cant download the game either? nice one smartass

[gritty ermine]

I think we found his alt account guys 😂 🔥

[glacial chasm]

Game crashes, isn't comparable to failing to do simple tasks. Hope that helps. Youtube probably has mining guides if you're still looking.

[gritty ermine]

"abuse water map" like what is this fucking L take? like this actually made me laugh my ass off, how am I abusing the map if I am playing on it against people in the same environment with same odds? lol yeah man I am abusing watermap you got me

[pastel elm]

#ranger message

[flat harness]

Because theres no good players tryharding that, its your safe space

[pastel elm]

asking if a skill called quickshot works on ranged weapon 😭

[gritty ermine]

this only proves that you dont play outside of arena tbh

[flat harness]

Go play real maps against good players grow balls once

[pastel elm]

#ranger message cant read???

#ranger message 💀 😭 🙏

[gritty ermine]

you mean door maps? yes man balls of steel

nice rage bait tho

[final monolith]

WHY DO THEY FUCKING KEEP REVERTING MY SETTINGS I CANT KEEP DLSS OFF I HAVE TO TURN IT OFF EVERYTIME I LOG IN

[flat harness]

Hide in your water map mr boss killer, you will be bad forever

[glacial chasm]

Go watch the video, if you can't ask someone to help you figure it out.

[final monolith]

WHY DO THEY FUCKING KEEP REVERTING MY SETTINGS I CANT KEEP DLSS OFF I HAVE TO TURN IT OFF EVERYTIME I LOG INWHY DO THEY FUCKING KEEP REVERTING MY SETTINGS I CANT KEEP DLSS OFF I HAVE TO TURN IT OFF EVERYTIME I LOG INWHY DO THEY FUCKING KEEP REVERTING MY SETTINGS I CANT KEEP DLSS OFF I HAVE TO TURN IT OFF EVERYTIME I LOG INWHY DO THEY FUCKING KEEP REVERTING MY SETTINGS I CANT KEEP DLSS OFF I HAVE TO TURN IT OFF EVERYTIME I LOG IN

[pastel elm]

@glacial chasm nice one bro you are really smart

[glacial chasm]

Quickshot also is for ranged weapons. lol

[pastel elm]

that was only 2 years ago btw

[gritty ermine]

keep hiding in arena where you cant lose your gear big man

[pastel elm]

proves how slow you are, this wasnt even in the playtest and you couldnt figure out simple things

[flat harness]

Thats the difference between you and me, i dont have gear fear so i fight against good players in real maps and sometimes losing 30k gold kits

[glacial chasm]

Quickshot is for ranged weapons, are you unwell?

[pastel elm]

"does quick shot fire a single shot, bu boost reload for the crossbow" holy shit

[flat harness]

You hide in water map and lie yourself saying its a skilled map 🤣 go kill your bosses pve hero

[gritty ermine]

maybe you get one day good enough to bring actual gear into the hr dungeons

[pastel elm]

#warlock message holy shit

[glacial chasm]

Quickshot and Quickfire are two different skills. Hope that helps.

[whole robin]

bro i gotta ask are you flexing gear in a dying game like you are some mlg pro gamer 720 no scoping people in mw2 lobbies?

[flat harness]

Hes not flexing hes literally a loser, thats why he plays water map

[glacial chasm]

"Press F to Mine Ore"

[pastel elm]

no one did

meanwhile ur asking these questions a year after the game was out.

[glacial chasm]

"It was hard to find the colored rocks on the brown ground, I ran around with my pick hitting everything I could find, sadly it was a lost cause"

[dusk basin]

so do u get the warden shield in dark and darker or nah

[pastel elm]

its crazy

[iron nimbus]

I think so? Haven’t checked it yet

[glacial chasm]

Mining ore is as easy as opening a door, this is magic.

[lost plover]

both of you be polite and move on

[dusk basin]

go check!

if you got it ill become a trial warden cuz ive got almost 2k+ hours in game

[atomic marlin]

this chat is something else

[sonic oasis]

are servers down? cant connect

[lost plover]

I believe applications are open #📢community-announcements message

[static zodiac]

praying they read my app..

[slate crow]

whens the next wipe?

[pearl surge]

Seems like a waste of time, but at least u get a shield o.o

If theyd give me the troubadour guitar thingy id shoot a shot for shits n giggles.

[kind cave]

I'm selling gold coin Pouches for 410-430 Gp in the shop is someone needs gold containers for cheap

[lost plover]

Guitar is Balladeers and anyone who hits the metrics should get it. But sometimes it slips through the cracks.

[pearl surge]

Idrc to stream tho, and its all cool with me I dont rlly play dark n darker currently, im awaiting next season to see whats up n if I wanna give it another shot ^^ theres just nothing to do / new for me atm.

Ty for the advice tho 💯

[lost plover]

Completely fair. But it is a Streamer emote. Gotta give people things to shoot for. And I feel you. I'm just boss grinding until next season so I don't get rusty

[clever cloud]

I got ran down by a dude playing the DaD song emote while calling me slurs so much that the video i uploaded to YouTube to add to my report was removed for hate speech.

"Im a balladeer bro isnt that crazy?" was i believe a direct quote. So tbh those also seem to be given out to anyone not just popular streamers.

[drifting scaffold]

na that is crazy

[lost plover]

You should definitely report that to the ingame team. That's not ok

[clever cloud]

Youtube gave me a community strike 🫠

[drifting scaffold]

did you make it unlisted?

[clever cloud]

I did. Had to trim a few minutes of racial slurs to make it small enough to direct upload

[wet current]

you do know the devs dont give a shit

[clever cloud]

Yeah I did

[wet current]

im getting teamkilled non stop in S2R just cause i have a light red name

im not even generally toxic

like i dont go and teamkill i dont say shit to teammates

people have been downvoting me just cause im bad at the game

[clever cloud]

You gotta get the dark red name to be respected.

[wet current]

they need to rework the karma system

[clever cloud]

Im always weary of red names tbh but I never considered being downvoted for just being bad.

[wet current]

i cant even punish people who teamkill me because i have a red name

this reputation system needs a rework

like holy fuck

[polar phoenix]

what now sdf you've ruined the beloved game dark and darker. atleast you got rich off it first thou ig

[visual swallow]

suffering the concequences of my own actions
"this is horrible!
kek

[wet current]

honestly atp i would have hoped DaD got deleted by that company way back when for this game supposedly stealing assests

even if that company was wrong. SDF mismanages this game so badly it needs to be taken down

[delicate ibex]

Space map will save the game

[glacial cape]

If you have a red name then it means your opinion is invalid. Sorry!

[night spear]

is anyone having an inventory bug i keep clicking my pots but i just drop them?

[lime fox]

hit alt and click back into the game

[lofty scaffold]

Guys, What happened to the game?

????

[glacial cape]

Umm, what? The game still exists. I am playing it rn

[errant isle]

I wish there was like 3 or 4 different craftable types for every piece of gear and weapon. Maybe even different styles of the gear too, not just color changes.

[modern echo]

oh cool

[lost plover]

That would be amazing.

[modern echo]

turns out if the worm tps to under you while youre by a wall you can just get stuck until you die, this is cool and good design

[quaint carbon]

Buff penguin

[manic condor]

u got any idea when wipe is? I haven't logged on in a few weeks

[gaunt oracle]

you're not Lisan Al' Ghaeb

[upbeat scaffold]

when is next wipe u guys think?

[gaunt oracle]

january 5th

[upbeat scaffold]

thanks bro

[gaunt oracle]

pure guess btw, nobody knows

[true moss]

Been out of the game for a while (since before they added the pirate stuff) is there a PvE mode that I can play with a party?

[gaunt oracle]

yes. adventure mode normal/HR are both trios. you can queue solo into it or with up to 2 friends, or you can select autofill

in adventure norms, you can even buy your gear from the goblin merchant if you die

good learning environment and the bosses are super fun

[glacial cape]

Ok so don't aggro the worm when you're by a wall then? Like tf

[waxen anvil]

wts is that game? i run 500luck 53 times 0 artifacts from bosses and key, and i run 0 luck 13 times and it's 2 artifacts??

[atomic schooner]

luck does alot less then you think

[waxen anvil]

then why it's even exist ?

[atomic schooner]

cause it still does something

[quaint carbon]

Buff penguin

[polar phoenix]

because they like adding usueless things and wonder why people dont wanna play their game anymore

[waxen anvil]

so it's worth to buyt luck pot when you're farming?

[atomic schooner]

normally yeah. smol boost is still a boost

[waxen anvil]

okay thank you

[fiery aspen]

Do things you buy from merchants count towards SSF?

[atomic schooner]

if it doesnt have "crafted by character" or "found by character" it wont count

[fiery aspen]

Thanks homie ❤️

[gray light]

there is literally NO ONE playing in oceania rn

[astral escarp]

there is no one playing west or east america either

[wild brook]

just alt tab back into the game it fixes it

[gray light]

reliably i can die at the start of every game in oceania and us west server and get the "dark grows darker" message every time

like what can the devs even do anymore to save this game

[wild brook]

Im pretty sure they have a loot restrictor on when theres less players in a dungeon, i swear if the lobby is full you start getting named weapons and unique stuff everywhere like what the hell is up with that? OCE players forever getting blue items in HR 500 LUCK

turn that shet off

[heady grove]

dw they will revert it in the middle of next season

[astral escarp]

That was ages ago, months

[wild brook]

They need to be adding new perks and abilities EVERY WEEK

[marsh knoll]

Is game dead

[fresh vigil]

sell me ancient egg

[tranquil canopy]

hey where is cobalt spawning rn

[final jasper]

Goblin caves.

[strange cipher]

I got a question for ya

lately ive been just running around the goblin caves not fighting anybody and js like chilling next to people spectating 1v1s and shit is that like smthn ima get banned for

[turbid elbow]

drops on thursday or have I been lied to? thanks

[dusk basin]

ill apply if I get a shield

[keen trellis]

where do I get snitch scanners?

[visual swallow]

from snitches, duh

[final jasper]

I don’t make or enforce the rules myself, but generally speaking you should be fine as long as there’s no teaming or influencing the fight in any way. Just spectating, hanging around, or watching 1v1s without helping either side, calling things out, blocking, or otherwise interfering shouldn’t be an issue. If it ever crosses into assisting one party, that’s where it could become a problem.

[strange cipher]

yeah I mean I try not to like influence the 1v1 I do generally try to kill any 3rd parties js cause nobody likes 3rd parties but thats its own 1v1 on my own

[uneven swan]

does anybody have loot rate numbers for different difficulties? like is loot rates better in normals VS hr pve?

[strange cipher]

gotten almost a full stash from just asking nicely for gear after the fights too lol

[final jasper]

I see, honestly to stay on the safe side I’d play the game normally!

[strange cipher]

yeah ill prolly stop if I start getting messages about it but so far it doesnt seem anybody has been mad about it

dont see how people can hate on a druid not 3rd partying and instead just chilling and acting like goblin merchant js taking gear that would despawn once people lmk they are done looting a kill

[neon kite]

Hr pve has better loot than Normals

[final jasper]

Absolutely, I’d suggest running some sort of recording software just incase.

[strange cipher]

thats lowk a really good idea

[final jasper]

Always good to record a game session just incase something happens or what ever the case maybe you can look back at it etc!

[uneven swan]

that feels a little bit weird to me haha but okay

[timber orbit]

meow

[dense raft]

trading full squire kit for stingray egg ❤️

[meager temple]

When is wiep?

Wipe*

[crude blaze]

no sir >W<

[zenith scarab]

Hi, is it no longer possible to migrate from Epic to Steam?

[vernal kiln]

can someone please help me kill spectral knight

[final jasper]

Unfortunately no, #📢announcements message

[meager temple]

When is wipe?

[final jasper]

Their hasn’t been an Announcement about the next wipe! Keep an eye on #📢announcements

[winged citrus]

Me when waiting for SDF to address the performance issues

[broken pagoda]

I like how they did and somehow made it worse

[desert skiff]

why isnt the skin from last season out bro

[turbid elbow]

s6 and s6 ssw rewards are out tho(Seawalker & Lycan)

[gray light]

might just download ESP to find players in lobby

[sly sage]

When are we getting the perk reworks and maybe new spells? Maybe March? Anyways, how is my goated game

[molten iris]

[turbid elbow]

we just had the rework of ~50 perks this season; hopefully we'll get more progression next season

[sly sage]

Next season?! But i thought daddy SDF said later this season?

I dont wanna wait 2 semi wipes so that my perk can do 2% more dmg...sigh well

[thorny helm]

we'll be back in business with a new axe specialization change

[sly sage]

Fun and interactive perks

Sage 10%->15% dayum thats about most of the changes my class has received since steam release!

[versed stump]

dude cant lie since names drop more often now I like the wipe again

[sly sage]

But yeah hopefully next season Sage can be reduced back to 10 as part of the creative and fun perk reworks!

[glacial cape]

News to me. I've killed wyvern like 50 times in the past few days and got nothing

[sly sage]

So when is the solo balance gonna happen?

[versed stump]

I heard that a lot about wyvern. Stingray got me 2 eggs 1 pulv and 1 spear in 2 days so I cant complain. Warlord gave me fulgor and viola in the last 3 days. Was always duos or trios dont know if that makes a difference. Maybe I just used up all my luck or smth

[glacial cape]

What solo balance? The game is designed for trios

[sly sage]

Read the post

[thorny helm]

no we go moon

[turbid elbow]

those be just words bro, they do be saying alot and not delivering; solos and trios wont ever be balanced at the same time with the current implementation

[sly sage]

Yeah sdf likes to promise when nexon is on them and they have 2k in dungeon and 3k in menu

[errant isle]

Reds seriously need to open in the last 5 minutes. So easy to escape to safety

[south hornet]

Hey when is wipe yall?

[ember snow]

2027

[glacial cape]

Probably mid January based on previous wipes

[vernal kiln]

how much tailor affinity do i need to craft the spectral cloak?

[proper birch]

gg was fun

[strange sage]

check #📢announcements

[sterile star]

yo sdf how come i kill 3 geared teams in HIGHROLLER and i go rez my teammate in HIGHROLLER and i come back and all the loot is gone after being away for 30 seconds in HIGHROLLER

[turbid elbow]

he pbly just whispers rly softly W design

[sudden hatch]

cuz someone snatched ya wig you barmy dog

[winged vigil]

how does arena work? like its only looted and crafted right?

[molten iris]

[cyan monolith]

?

whats high roller got to do with it

[molten iris]

Does stingray drop Egg in adventure, or only hr

[nocturne scarab]

people say both
its epic so im inclined to believe all queues
ive never dropped it myself and if i were farming it... it wouldnt be in pve

[tulip isle]

Shoulda dropped loot or guarded bodies

[whole crag]

I am shocked that people still play this

[vivid wasp]

Samr

Same*

[warm fable]

Older players love this game so much they come back just to remind us how much it means to them.

[dreamy vine]

[sour oracle]

Quack

[cyan monolith]

@whole crag

[sage lotus]

does anyone know if the ancient stingray egg that is needed for the collector cosmetic quest can be bought aswell or is it looted only?

[halcyon drift]

You can buy as well they where going for 3-5 DBs last I checked, but that was about a month ago.

[sage lotus]

alright thanks man, good to know

[marble pond]

can you buy the boss drops for the quests

[molten iris]

there are no information about stingray on wiki . Could i ask, does HR stingray and normal stingray have lots of different. About movement and how they act. I can beat normal easily and do it everytime, but cannot beat HR version, tried around 10 times

[drifting scaffold]

some of them just hover the quest item and see if it says “Looted” or not

[marble pond]

if it says looted then cant use?

[drifting scaffold]

yea right Looted = gotta get it yourself

[marble pond]

tyy

[molten iris]

Or you can trick the status by queue into a dead lobby and die instantly, then quickly queue it and go loot yourself, status will turn to looted. I dont know if sdf know about this and have any plan on fix

[marble pond]

chance of you getting back into the same lobby tho lol?

[molten iris]

idk, 50/50 maybe if dead server

[marble pond]

what if it says "handled"

[molten iris]

i did it on sea server, for the wolf pelt quest

[molten iris]

i think the quest only have looted status on it, or just accept any status

[drifting scaffold]

[bright moss]

Yes, and epic max

[marble pond]

damn guess i just gotta keep competing with all these zhaoxingchang gold farmers on my server

[vital violet]

Where are drops announced?

[molten iris]

just switch to other server like NA or SA, they are much better, and connection is not bad

[marble pond]

im in australia so only the sydney server has good ping

but it may as well be called chinatown

[molten iris]

other server, around China is dominated by chinese hacker on pvp and farmer in pve. Almost unplayable

[marble pond]

theyre like a virus

[molten iris]

im not sure in your case. But for me, lived in Sea, connection to NA is not bad and i play it mainly to avoid there chinese. Hope there are a good one for you,before ironmace make chinese there own server

[marble pond]

infect every online game and ruin it

[marble pond]

theres a few servers in asia for them

[molten iris]

they probaly count every server other than western are their server i think

server is no matter to them, most of them use VPN to play dnd

i dont know why they let NA have their peace but thats it

[drifting scaffold]

the ping is too high for us east I think

[marble pond]

anyone wanna duo cyclops? too many farmers in solo

need eye for quest lol

[molten iris]

you can just buy it and do my trick lol

eyes is rare also

[marble pond]

dunno if ill get back in same lobby though lol

nvm it let me complete quest with a bought one haha

[molten iris]

you can read if it need to be looted or not in merchant

point in the quest item

[lament lintel]

I'm gonna keep playing as I do, but damn the game is looking pretty cooked huh?

[molten iris]

Idk, looking good for me. At least there are still lots of chinese. Not gonna cooked soon

[drifting scaffold]

very true. idk im still seeing full lobbies this late into wipe doesn't seem cooked yet

[molten iris]

[drifting scaffold]

[lament lintel]

Yea I'm hoping it's just end of wipe. Apes together strong lads.

[somber pilot]

when?

[polar phoenix]

if you think a wipe will save this game your coping hard

[drifting scaffold]

i dont think i know

every wipe it's the same thing lol

[delicate ibex]

Space map will save the game

[forest matrix]

only 12 people play this game

[molten iris]

[cyan monolith]

those who know wipe is in a month

glhf

[drifting scaffold]

a little less than a month now

[cyan monolith]

actual 500 total in 2 weeks

[nocturne scarab]

50 will 35 str boc staff just met a rogue's face

thought they learned their lesson about that stuff ages ago with a base will of 7 or so

[drifting scaffold]

honestly at this point if i see anybody with a staff i'm not facing shit

dip duck dive and dodge

[nocturne scarab]

learned my lesson the hard way too, cant seem to find a melee kit that does well against it outside of ct rogue

[sly sage]

Damn even this chat is dead af

30 minute gaps between messages

[next grail]

Are there drops on Thursday?

[drifting scaffold]

yea this chat been dead since they took it off the default. still fun when it gets going tho

[sly sage]

Blocked message, let me guess, blue monkey?

[drifting scaffold]

rent free

[sly sage]

Well if it has been taken off as default then it kinda makes sense

So which chat is more active now?

[indigo orchid]

Devs I beg of you bring skill tree please, or at least have one multi class perk slot and/or one skill slot replaced

[sly sage]

New skill system in development, didnt you see the message in game?

[drifting scaffold]

#game-discussion for sure is more active, but also english speakers are mostly offline rn

[sly sage]

Lmao what?

[indigo orchid]

I don't play this shitty game anymore so no I didnt

[sly sage]

I was just kidding, that message has been there for at least 2 years and prob longer

[indigo orchid]

🗿

Actually got me there LMFAO

[sly sage]

I wonder if SDF is sitting now looking at 0 sales, shrinking playerbase and still thinking faustian que and space map!!!

[indigo orchid]

Space map gonna do wonders to the uninstall button

[sly sage]

Yeah sometime in next 2 years tho

[indigo orchid]

For sure but they gotta change axe spec, buff druid, barb, and sorcerer, fix nonexistent bugs, and put the circle back in Norms first

[sly sage]

[indigo orchid]

💀

[sly sage]

We are witnessing one of the future popular youtube videos in real time

[indigo orchid]

Please share that sauce

Is it titled "How the most incompetent devs ruined one of the greatest DND games of this century!"

[sly sage]

Yep and starts with court photos or something like that

[indigo orchid]

Starts with sdf saying hold the line while showing a 800 peak playerbase

[sly sage]

Bro english speakers are offline now, thats why chats are dead

[indigo orchid]

Right right

Rewind a year ago and this chat was poppin

[sly sage]

Yep, cquinn has the worst takes

[indigo orchid]

Even at 4am on a weekday

[sly sage]

And literally shares those takes here. Every. Single. Day. Non. Stop.

[indigo orchid]

Hey man, somebody's gotta have a bad take eventually.

I'm sure I've had some myself a few times here

[sly sage]

Either way this gem of a game, who knows who knows

[indigo orchid]

Like when rogue ranger warlock was meta Shivers

[sly sage]

Maybe SDF is cooking the biggest update yet for christmas

[indigo orchid]

That was supposed to be the last update mannnnn

[sly sage]

[dim needle]

What was the 13 gig update for

[indigo orchid]

The one we made up 2 wipes and delayed 6 months for mannnn

[drifting scaffold]

they said its a whole engine upgrade so i guess all the files are distributed diff

[sly sage]

Hahaha 2 semi wipes for a map nobody wanted...HOW

[dim needle]

Is the game running better now?

Also is it just me or this season the fuckin rewards guy fell asleep how long does it take to announce rewards for hr

[drifting scaffold]

i notice it sometimes being smoother but when it gets dark and stormy on water map i tank

[indigo orchid]

I've never seen a unity game that ran bad except on VR chat or tarkov I think, it's impressive what these devs are capable of

[dim needle]

Smfh

[drifting scaffold]

unity ?

[sly sage]

Season guy was probably not paid on time and quit risk free

[dim needle]

Lmfao bro went to go work for midnight walkers

[indigo orchid]

I'm pretty sure it's either unity or unreal

[sly sage]

Season guy doing his 14th zombie reskin for blue rank

[indigo orchid]

Update guy walked out LOL

[sly sage]

"I am not learning anything on this job, fuck this"

[indigo orchid]

"We made 13 million in a month, time to do nothing but bug fixes and number changes for the next 3 years!"

[sly sage]

50 perks overhaul was funny af

But i guess even then i didnt expect anything major at all

[indigo orchid]

Honestly I wouldn't even mind that if the changes were actually good and made the game play different

And more perks for the love of god

[sly sage]

It must suck tho looking at the data seeing how no one gives a f about the thing you guys just spent 8 months on

Must be super demotivating

[indigo orchid]

What did they expect when they made so much money and barely put forth any effort after the fact, since 2023 we've had 2 maps, arenas, randomized dungeons, a few perks, 2 classes, and a couple of artifacts nobody gets to play with except like 5 percent of the playerbase.

[gaunt oracle]

idk if they stress about the data too much. 3 years of data gathered and we're still in our flip flop changes era

[drifting scaffold]

convos like this confirm my suspicion that the doomers don't even know the game they're complaining about

[indigo orchid]

Not to mention warlock, druid, and sorcerer have been detrimental to the games established systems and gameplay loop

[drifting scaffold]

never mind that every class is viable and balanced with multiple skills in contention for them 🤣

[gaunt oracle]

I dont often see warlock lumped in with druid and sorc, whats your reasoning?

[indigo orchid]

Back when warlock was released, healing was a very finite and scarce thing everybody had to fight for, warlock completely ruined that system

[drifting scaffold]

"i played once when X was strong, now I hate X"

nailed it

[indigo orchid]

Ever since then, they have never been able to properly balance the class, it's either shit or OP

[sly sage]

Bro literally, seeing Graysun teasing us with water map artifacts was so cringe, who are you even teasing with that shit

How delulu you gotta be

[gaunt oracle]

you're talking about how the game was, what? 2 and a half years ago? how old is warlock now. btw, healing wasn't THAT finite brother. I started the game as a swarm ratting cleric

[bleak tusk]

doomers gotta be a slur around here by now

[gaunt oracle]

all the addition of warlock did was give me competition

[indigo orchid]

I started as a fighter/cleric main and I remember when everybody was so poor you couldn't even afford to bring meds in because the cape kids would steamroll lobbies

[drifting scaffold]

they're just wayward chatters 🫂

[indigo orchid]

When warlock was released, rogue and ranger were the meta at the time so you would shit on any comp that didn't run it cause it was constant kiting, infinite sustain, landmine garbage

Warlock is a lot more toned down now but back then it left a bad taste in a ton of non ranged players mouths

[sly sage]

Druid too

[indigo orchid]

Then druid came out and turned everything to shit for melee players again

I've met a druid main who's top 100 and I asked him personally how to deal with druid as a fighter/bard/cleric and he literally said (and I'm not kidding) YOU CANT!!!

Druid is too fast and rat form too OP to do anything against them

I know what tf I'm talking about I've been here nearly everyday before this last half of this year

On the game that is

[sly sage]

Nah man, ur wrong, u dont even play the game 🤓

[indigo orchid]

[mighty canopy]

Bard can mess druids up wdym

[drifting scaffold]

and you still can't figure out how to play around druid? cmon lol

[indigo orchid]

How

[sly sage]

I play the game with the other 10 sweatlords 🤓

[indigo orchid]

And don't say some din of darkness bs cause nobody plays ts

[drifting scaffold]

further proving my point honestly lmao

[mighty canopy]

Dark weakness a druid he can out space bear and win trade against panther

[indigo orchid]

Yeah, in solos, what about trios?

[gaunt oracle]

there are no druids in trios

[indigo orchid]

I mainly play trios, the real game mode of dark and darker

[gaunt oracle]

druid is only good in solos

[mighty canopy]

Druids are not great in trios and arent highly represented

[indigo orchid]

Cap and cope sir they always be treanting behind people in trios

[gaunt oracle]

yeah at the lowest skill expression, treants are a problem

[indigo orchid]

And their healing is better than clerics

[gaunt oracle]

see alot of high ranked arena druids?

[drifting scaffold]

🤭

[gaunt oracle]

rest my case

[indigo orchid]

Arenas is not the same game as random trios lol

random trios are only squires

[indigo orchid]

I meant random map trios queue genius

[gaunt oracle]

so did he

[indigo orchid]

That includes premades

[gaunt oracle]

so people in squire kit...?

thats where druids are running rampant

[mighty canopy]

I have no idea what bracket you play in but I have not seen a single druid in HR trios that isnt a "rat"

[indigo orchid]

Yeah man context clues and common sense really gave you that conclusion gg

[sly sage]

Bro just block em both, i did like 6 months ago

[drifting scaffold]

idk i would expect people who make wide sweeping judgements about the state of the game to... play the game ?

[indigo orchid]

I never said it's relevant only now, I'm talking about a year ago

[gaunt oracle]

he plays s2r, I guess that counts

[drifting scaffold]

yeah we know bud

[sly sage]

Dw about it just block em

[gaunt oracle]

still not buying the "druids and sorcs are destroying my s2r lobbies" rant but go off king

[indigo orchid]

Lol yeah he's right you guys are actually brainlet trolls lol gg

[nocturne scarab]

i honestly forgot druid was a class even after the hp buff to panther

[drifting scaffold]

but warlock was strong that one wipe so fuck warlock

[indigo orchid]

Do you main any casters?

[drifting scaffold]

rogue is so much scarier to a caster than panther is

[mighty canopy]

Bard and instacast wiz probably the best classes in the game tbh but its always been this way

[drifting scaffold]

ppl used to cry about wiz so much 😭 it's barely changed and it's so strong

[azure stirrup]

whens next wipe

[drifting scaffold]

like 4 weeks

[nocturne scarab]

700 fame warlock and the others are about 300
but no i dont and its not because of druid

[mighty canopy]

Yeah a good wiz is impossible to win imo unless they screw up bad

[indigo orchid]

Lol I was gonna say ask cquinn cause he seems to know everything but he beat me to the reply💀

[azure stirrup]

[drifting scaffold]

is there any more satisfying feeling than juking a wizard fireball

[sly sage]

Nah cquinn should be auto block for anyone, its just pure ragebait nolifer with nothing better to do than sitting here everyday for months

[nocturne scarab]

presently worth 300k~+ gold and possibly more

[fiery torrent]

and where the fk ill put all this money? xd

[nocturne scarab]

you ask for 3 db (death blooms) and 1 full 1 empty
or 2 full
or w.e you want
But each db is about 100k gold and a chest is 24k+10k if full

[fiery torrent]

k,ty

[neon kite]

You just pulled one ???

[fiery torrent]

ye

[gritty ermine]

pulled 6 eggs this wipe

what a shame that they sell for cheap these days

[neon kite]

He or normals?

[fiery torrent]

normal

[gritty ermine]

I still remember my first egg selling for absurd amounts of gold

[neon kite]

How many times you killed it ?

[fiery torrent]

like 20

[neon kite]

Wtffffff

[gritty ermine]

then he was lucky

[nocturne scarab]

thats good numbers

[neon kite]

Killed mine a grip amount an no luck

[gritty ermine]

chances are for norms is 1/200 iirc

[neon kite]

And in hr

[nocturne scarab]

rip those fps issues on maelstrom rn

[gritty ermine]

1/100 altough based off my experience and my 300+ highroller kills it doesn't feel like that tbh

[neon kite]

How do yall deal with the dumb Druids after yall kill it / what classes yall on?

[gritty ermine]

wow dumb druids, thanks man

[neon kite]

I just assume it will never be there ( I’m really hoping one time is there) I want a egg for the quest

[neon kite]

Bro it’s a penguin shooting me everytime I kill it … lmao

[gritty ermine]

You can get eggs on pve aswell. Chances are low like 1/400 but tbh I found more eggs in pve start of wipe than I found later in hr. I was either super lucky or the chances in pve are better than we think

[neon kite]

Man I’m unlucky I guess lmao

You kill it on Druid ?

[gritty ermine]

thats my luck for artifacts tbh. I just found pulv and cinder in 300+ hr stingray kills

[gritty ermine]

most of the times, yes, and sometimes, but not often, on bard

[neon kite]

See I like doing it on bars for timing , but I like it on fighter cuz I be shitting on people

[gritty ermine]

they are very squishy, use that to your advantage

[neon kite]

But the storm and doing it on fighter is too long imo

[gritty ermine]

I got like 10fps at stingray fight, so much fun

[neon kite]

I feel like I should just run , cuz I can’t hit a penguin at mock 1 …

[gritty ermine]

they have to fix the watermap performance tbh

its nearly unplayable

nah i just wanted a reason to be quirky with google translate

[neon kite]

That boy mad had him kill stingray till 3rd phase just to come in and kill em 😭 karma sucks

[molten iris]

does hr stingray boss room give more ore. In Normal its only 3 mine and 1 hit each, get 3 ores in total. I never killed a HR stingray, so curious if it drop more. Because i once see people with like 15 ores in their inventory

[drifting scaffold]

the new mini hoard on water map should be in other places too. that will be cool

[drifting scaffold]

yes all ore in HR has more hits than normal/pve

[molten iris]

im excited to wake up tomorrow morning and wasting my gold on learning HR Stingray. Idont know if this is normal, but i feel impossible for me to kill stingray without gears

[gritty ermine]

buff penguin

[gritty ermine]

bard can easily speedrun hr stingray in squire

[neon kite]

Same with fighter

[molten iris]

i cant even parry the boss probably, still get hit sometime

[neon kite]

What class

[molten iris]

fighter

[neon kite]

Protect your feet

[molten iris]

wdym protect my feet

[drifting scaffold]

if u press w ur feet come up and u swim horizontal. also press space if ur not already

[neon kite]

The boss is usually aiming for your feet so if you just aim to parry near your feet or at the bottom of where his tail is (the fat part ) you will hit the parry most times

That’s my tip.

[molten iris]

bro thats lit, will try it tomorrow

[warm fable]

“Soon” means in a short time, not far in the future — but it’s not exact.

Examples:
I’ll call you soon. → sometime shortly, but no exact time
The game will release soon. → near future, but unclear when
How short “soon” is depends on context:
In casual talk: minutes, hours, or days
In business or games: days, weeks… sometimes longer 😅

[molten iris]

thatd be tuff though

he just needs to keep pumpin out performance updates it'll work itself out.

[weak shale]

if you go red on s2r do u enter with other s2r people

[drifting scaffold]

yeah it doesn't mix with normals

[weak shale]

epic

[jaunty hound]

is the game still shid? how was the wipe?

[granite lark]

they need to flesh out the new training system. for melee wielders a customizable swing order or novel strike to earn would be dope. and for casters earning additional spells/spell modifiers would work as well. seems like a way to keep encoutners fresh

also, at 100 affinity with armourer, can i make ruby silver?

[sonic cave]

The game is good. There are still some gripes that individual people can have (like I'll gripe about headshot damage at 175% still being too high). But it's good. The problem atm is not knowing when the wipe is - and arena players just got kind of smacked in the face.

[granite lark]

what headshot damage isnt 150%? lol

[sonic cave]

Nah, it was 200% for a moment. Then it was so heavily complained about that SDF decided to do us a favor... and reduce it to 175%....

The reasoning... the reasoning is... that it's easier to 1v3 if headshot damage is higher. And his vision involves people being able to pull off cool 1v3s.

[crisp bobcat]

Oh wow look one barbarian 1v3 entire team while keeping one tapping them!
BALANCED!!

[sonic cave]

Lol, yeah. Or just that 3v3 pvp gets worse so a hypothetical player on a team can 1v3 and rez his buddies.

[crisp bobcat]

Smart plays are more approvable then stupid headshot multiply

[crisp bobcat]

Exactly

Also ive got a question people, should i try playing wizard in solos or rogue is better?

I keep getting owned by fighters in full white

[crisp bobcat]

That move with arming sword, shield and full plate armor on 320+ms

[sonic cave]

Wizard is great into fighters. The problem with Wizard in solos is if you walk into another person landmining you, you are super cooked. So it's generally not a great solo class, even though it's arguably the strongest class in the game overall.

[crisp bobcat]

Wizard was my first character choice, but i sidnt like the "limited spells" mechanic so next pick was a sorcerer

[sonic cave]

I would suggest rogue, but rogue has a weird playstyle into heavy melee where you mosquito them down with daggers and hand crossbow. You can't ever really all-in them.

[crisp bobcat]

Yeah i actually build 330ms rogue with 15 strenght and some good dex

The problem is every big 2 handed weapon counters my attack and run away playstile

Not to mention barbs and fighters using their speed abilities amongst with axes to catch up to me

[sonic cave]

Yeah you can't stab -> back away, against 2h weapons. You literally have to ranged mosquito them down.

[crisp bobcat]

I have bad aim

[molten iris]

if i enter red, ill enter with only people in my lobby. Or i enter with any people whose enter red at the same time

[sonic cave]

😢

[crisp bobcat]

Also they dodge...

Every player i meet they dodge most of my crossbow shots, so...

[sonic cave]

This is a good question that is frankly kinda hard to answer. Supposedly it's anyone on any map who enters a red, but it really feels like it's just your map...

[crisp bobcat]

I mean i technically COULD kill them if they werent backing up and healing behind cover

[sonic cave]

When they back up to heal, you do want to stay close enough to threaten them with melee. That stops the healing.

-- they'll still have healing pots going, which is fine. Let them healing pot. Keep reloading and throwing.

[crisp bobcat]

Thanks for tip

I keep loosing my blue kit that costs like 4k to fighters in full plate that rush me with insane speed with weapons in hands though

And sometimes its a smart ones that dont instanly pop ability but get closer first or those who try to put me in a corner of map

[molten iris]

at least you are not dying to monster

[crisp bobcat]

60 hours of gameplay teached me enough

Competing with these sweats in full white is fucking hard though

[drifting scaffold]

I’m pretty sure yes you will collide with other players of the same mode also going down (in the ~5 min before continuous is shut off)

[molten iris]

yeah, thats what i want to believe. But most of the time, i just met the guys i meet at the 1st floor. Its very confusing to me, back then, system are more understandable

[molten iris]

i played 700hrs and killed by yeti everytime

[drifting scaffold]

I’ve certainly run into ppl not from my 1st layer below. like we cleared the whole ruins lobby and went down and met another team that seems to have cleared their ruins lobby

[molten iris]

so its because our server is dead as hell. Thank you for confirmation

[sonic cave]

The trick is to convince the yeti you mean no harm.

You do this by mimicking the mating dance of another yeti. Slide to the left. Slide to the right. Repeat.

[molten iris]

[drifting scaffold]

🤣 great advice actually

[molten iris]

is that a guide fr

[sonic cave]

😂 actually yes

[drifting scaffold]

yes hahaha you mirror the yeti and he swings right past you

[silk bough]

if you play wizard, you should use the instant cast ability, instantly throwing a fireball at a melee is a good way to make them afraid of you

[glacial cape]

give him banana

[crisp bobcat]

Is there a way to get more spells, like what stat does it take to build?

[tepid osprey]

So does SDF realize sorcerer is shit and no one really plays the class anymore?

[crisp bobcat]

I mean amount per spell

[crisp bobcat]

I want more fireballsss

[median beacon]

There is a skill called spell overload but that’s it

[crisp bobcat]

So not even knowledge?

Alright, 6 fireballs, i get it...

[median beacon]

Knowledge doesn’t increase the amount of spells you can cast before replenishing them

[woeful dagger]

Run potions of clarity between casts

Run overload bro

(Game and its devs is poopoo diaper though you sound new so i gotta lyk)

Jay didn’t do anything lol. Had nothing to do with the game.

Devs just made a lot of bad decisions, and either way its late in wipe which is why pop is low

[wind juniper]

damn jay really killed the game by leaving

[static zodiac]

i mean even then we are in a low playerbase wise for it being end of wipe

like 3k-4k players is crazy

[wind juniper]

yeaaaaa this game's best days are far far gone

[static zodiac]

gone but better ones could come

[wind juniper]

extremely unlikely

[coarse star]

To be fair 2 years ago we had 2k players end of wipe during games peak time.

Just an issue with super long wipes without much to do, and the huge ratting problem

[static zodiac]

im no doomer, seen games come back from worse states

[wind juniper]

those games didn't have sdf at the helm

[wild scroll]

massive problem with ratting makes hr unplayable and all the actual trio teams wont play because of it

[static zodiac]

yeah but those games had issues where you'd clip through roads, and clouds spun so

[weak shale]

What games im curious?

[wind juniper]

this dude is the boogeyman of gaming

[static zodiac]

i mean they are just people at the end of the day, small studio too

[static zodiac]

Cyberpunk, No mans sky, fallout 76

[coarse star]

Yep pretty much everyone has stopped cause of ratting. Im barely playing cause of it

[weak shale]

Fair tbh nms is so peak now

[wind juniper]

nms did have a pretty nutty turnaround

[coarse star]

Im just waiting for next wipe to rlly see. Since zone will be removed and insta reds are likely being removed.

[brisk socket]

haven’t touched no man’s sky since 2020 heard they added a shit ton of content

[wild scroll]

if they make slow loot thing again it could be playable

[weak shale]

Its really freaking good now

[weak shale]

If you own it still id give it a shot if you like sandbox games and space its the best space experience you could ever have

[static zodiac]

and they are improving, its a new game studio after all, and the only examples they had development wise was NEXON and thats a horrible company to have experience from

[wind juniper]

i'm all for handing out benefits of doubt but i really don't see how you think they're improving

[static zodiac]

just, they gotta cut the shit and get to working on whats best for their company and the longevity for the game rather than try to pull party tricks to temporarily boost playerbase like they did with the water map

[static zodiac]

significantly better communication than years ago, even though its still meh

They have finally begun to work on the QoL like they promised, and the game is in a really balanced state right now with exception for the ratting problem

This is one of the only periods of the games lifetime where you can truly be successful on ANY character

[coarse star]

yeah slow looting back and remove class stacking

[static zodiac]

like, bossing as a concept needs a severe rework to help the ratting problem per example

[coarse star]

They have done good recently, but was after like a year of ruining this. but this wipe has been mostly just overall good changes. with more planned to come. the main one taking away is just stuff to combat ratting

[long mantle]

Remove class stacking been saying from the start.

[static zodiac]

I would like to see the inventories of boss loot be instanced, if you assisted in killing the boss you get your own inventory loot pool

if you didnt assist in dealing damage you get nothing

[wind juniper]

then you have 40 man teams

[static zodiac]

People would still compete post boss kill

[wind juniper]

yeah it would be a bloodbath afterwards

[static zodiac]

as it usually is

[wind juniper]

i think that just kinda moves the goalpost but i get what you're saying

problem is that too much of this game needs that kind of love and refinement

there needs to be more to do in this game, for 3 years we've had the exact same bosses +2, and pvp

[static zodiac]

Religon, and Gathering Hall needs their updates

same thing with the inventory update, etc

QoL

thats what the game needed for season 7

like, they said they were pushing gathering hall to mid wipe, its past mid wipe. whats happening?

no updates, maybe tomorrow we will get one but who knows

if they do fulfill their promised, Make religon something other than a money skin, release their gathering hall rework, release their inventory rework, focus on QoL, so on and so forth the game will be fine

if they continue to release random stuff that looks cool but in reality has no substance to the games longevity, than the game will dip lower

But we as a community have to actually say this stuff and be the voice to convince them otherwise they are just gonna hear "the community is upset" rather than WHY we are upset

[wind juniper]

mark my words there's gonna be at least one line dedicated to faustians next patch notes

[thick shore]

Id rather this next season they make loot harder to get it kind of makes it harder for new players since decent/good players can buy full gearsets to kill new players for very cheap

[ionic fox]

just remove zone and game will feel very alive even with 4k players playing

[wind juniper]

nobody's spoken about faustian for a while, bout time they do some useless change to throw it all out of whack again

[static zodiac]

it is just one piece of a bigger puzzle

[thick shore]

I like the zone on some maps but it should be removed from blue maelstrom right now

[static zodiac]

if they want to fix the zone issue, and players not interacting with eachother, they need to make more POI's where people will want to meet to fight

[wind juniper]

more. to. do.

[static zodiac]

something more than just Treasure hoards and Boss rooms

[ionic fox]

i mean zone traps people in lobbys or i should say the zone extraction mechanic with extractions spawning in late trap people in lobbys for a certain amount of time

[glacial cape]

That actually has the complete opposite effect. People get pushed to fight more by having the circle

[brisk pivot]

lmao no clown emoji

[warm fable]

[ionic fox]

you dont understand that people get trapped in dead lobbys creating more servers and dead lobbys

[warm fable]

if demigod was harder to get people would still be playing

[jaunty sapphire]

[kind cave]

Huh? There's like 7 people online, how do you even find PVP? I've just been fighting Ghost Knight

[warm fable]

That’s one small step for a monkey, but a giant leap toward escaping the zoo 🧠

[surreal tartan]

someone can help me kill warlord for quest ?

[inner vine]

is this game still alive

i quit bec sdf is incompetent and bad at making content and he lost trust

it feels like a shell of its prime

yeah chat is not moving. looks like 90% left the game

in a matter of months he managed to turn 20k peak players to 5k and 2700 in game rn

half in dungeon. game died

[river hamlet]

RIP dude let em try to ress it wll come bak one day or not :/

[sonic cave]

During one of the playtests, DaD peak was 250k.

If my number recollection serves.

[umbral quest]

crazy

[quaint carbon]

Added penguin then nerfed it then nerfed it again ://

[umbral quest]

haha

wheres the flying squirrel that hovers? that would cool

[inner vine]

peak was 50k 1.5 years ago

he geniunely killed the game. even without pumping content it floated at 20k but for some dumb reason he decided that his own ego is worth better than whats left of a loyal playerbase

2700 in game rn and half of them prob in stash

accross multiple continents btw

[sonic cave]

No sir, Playtest numbers were the all time high. But they would never stay there. Just like Arc won't stay at 300k.

At the start of this wipe we were at 40k in-game.

[long mantle]

CrabBone if ur here we eliminated that team u wanted..

[inner vine]

u think a company that made the finals would lose a big playerbase ? their game looks good and is insanely optimized

even their microtransactions and pr are great

they listen to feedback and buffed rattler even

[cunning ore]

Of course he killed the game. I mean, it is even a meme at this point the amount of circular back-and-forth design changes that were done in a period of months instead of designing new things.

[sonic cave]

Doesn't matter. Pvp extraction games don't hold their initial playerbase. Ever.

[inner vine]

tarkov held very well and stayed relevant despite being almost a decade old

mind u thats dayz tier

and thats with shitty devs too

[sonic cave]

Interest booms when it out. Drops off until a core playerbase remains. Tarkov is now at its core playerbase (way more than DaD, but nowhere near its initial peak)

[cunning ore]

Going back once in your design and development philosophy is already a bad sign, when you have to repeat it multiple times its a really bad sign because when you have a delta design, you are wasting a ton of resources.

[inner vine]

even though they won the lawsuit i geniunely think they stole the game

[cunning ore]

I do not know how many times I have had to update my damage excel sheets with nerf daggers, boost daggers, then nerf the same thing a month later to the point I just stopped.

[inner vine]

i stopped after they removed solos

came back when they reverted it all. played like 2 hours a week. realised its straight up liquified diluted garbage now

the same game years ago not a single change except like idk a map

u would think an early access game would like yk. be progressively built

[sonic cave]

Ehhh. Nah. In US law they wouldn't have paid anything, by the way. Korean courts don't have 18 USC 1030 jurisprudence, which is about employee authorized access.

[inner vine]

not "tweaked" back and forth. the moment u go back and forth in development is when u realise this is a bait and switch

[cunning ore]

I remember the time when he decided to remove stats from gear completely and at that point I knew exactly he was completely clueless on what he was doing. These laboratorial experiments are to be tested in a test server, not a live version where your playerbase is.

[sonic cave]

In korea, they definitely made mistakes individually. Using N*xon's servers to hold the game and then xfer it off.

[inner vine]

nobody is interested in the test server bec the changes are so minimal and u dont even get rewarded for anything except being sdfs lil fuktoy

[sonic cave]

But in the US they would have arguably been in the clear. IaaL.

[sonic cave]

Yup.

[inner vine]

make the test server give u 1k a day for logging in and doing 3 matches in HR and u would actually have a good time

or like epic / legendary loot

[sonic cave]

Extra headshot damage to allow for 1v3s is also a very strange design choice in my view. Sacrificing 3v3 pacing to allow for 1v3.

[cunning ore]

I mean there's plenty of us veterans that do not mind testing things ahead in the test server. Issue is we are basically testing for nothing, there's no feedback or talk with any developer, or any dev ever reached out to us to ask for feedback for testing their stuff for free. In a game this small it makes no sense why the dev team would cloister itself.

[sonic cave]

This.

[inner vine]

i dont really care about the game anymore. im mad about sdf robbing me of a promise

id rather play games that respect me

[surreal tartan]

someone can help me kill warlord for quest ?

[honest garnet]

Also having to grind a new character every time is annoying

[inner vine]

do it urself its more rewarding to learn

def one of the fun bosses

my fav one is spectral knight and banshee

[tame inlet]

my boy died in hr pve with my cinder, will i get it back does anyone know

[timber orbit]

you will not get it back

[full saddle]

No

You wont bud

[surreal tartan]

I'd like to learn it someday but I just want the quest done for crafting

[inner vine]

its not worth it. try learning it

the crafts suck and not even worth making them to sell on market.

ur better off buying them bec crafting them is more expensive than buying bis

[surreal tartan]

It's for arena

[trim idol]

so iron mace what we doin bout the naked rats and rogues robing ALL the llot from kills

loot*

[azure snow]

yea for like 2k gold

[azure snow]

waIT HR pve when wack

[tame inlet]

@azure snow its hre pve you sure

[trim idol]

[azure snow]

☠️

[inner vine]

ew arena. it doesnt even give u any rewards

[drifting scaffold]

it’s about to next wipe I think

[fallow umbra]

can’t play this game anymore. constantly clearing modules. there’s a mob every 5 steps. DaD is too taxing anymore. don’t care anymore giving away my stash. i play ranger fighter and cleric mostly. BIS BIS

[versed solar]

Gunt. Gunt

[drifting scaffold]

put it on trade post if it’s good

[fallow umbra]

RickDuster

[granite lark]

[vestal pine]

Does anyone have a stingray egg they would like to trade?

[trim idol]

[open roost]

[open roost]

Well shit, ima pretend its tomorrow forever.

[trim idol]

[steep helm]

Would someone be up for helping me kill a spectral knight? :L)

[trim idol]

yea

[hasty roost]

just tried to make some divine daggers for fun, and uh yeah how did they manage to screw that up, and just leave it broken.

[steep helm]

hey adopted, i can't seem to link the room here, but its room 163

[trim idol]

[steep helm]

[trim idol]

🤣 🫵

[quaint carbon]

Buff penguin

[ripe pier]

dead game

[radiant swallow]

arena back yet yay or nay???

[trim idol]

Yo so whats with all the teaming and ratting?

[gaunt oracle]

tomorrow evening. ~21.5 hours from now

[gaunt oracle]

first time?

[trim idol]

about 67th time and its startin to piss me off, moreso the teaming constantly but the rats are badd too

[gaunt oracle]

scummy behavior + dark and darker PVP. name a more iconic duo

[river fern]

strongest classes rn?

[gaunt oracle]

for trio pvp: wizard, warlock, fighter, cleric... probably in that order
solo pvp: rogue, druid, cleric, warlock, probably NOT in that order

for arena: anything with a range attack

[river fern]

so warlock and cleric as in the old times i see

my favorite 2 tbh
