they don't even drop anything, it's not worth it
It does ye
it does work but there's no benefit
More XP on kill
huh 1st time I hear about it.
Yes there's even a bug that lets u start it at level 60
it doesn't give more XP just cuz it's cogah tho
It does make you spend 10 minutes running around trying to res your 1 party member who went down because you forget you have an attack button for a bit
what do you mean i already slayed him
did you go to the undercity?
bannerets are only the gold armored heavy enemies, not the silver/metal color armored ones
oh so its another one in the underrcity
bannerets will also have a "boss health bar"
i swear a god this stupid guide is leading me to random places
you do have a map with a marked circle and a marker on top too 
the guide will only lead you to the edge of the search circle
What does "surrending sparrows tale" mean? Like my guide is telling me t o go a certain path, but as I approach my goal, a warning appears with that message..?
if you start a tale and get far away from it. you'll be abandoning the mission
I had my first game crash just now, in endless 🫣
was someone using orengall?
we were two Orengall
orengall 2 is a common crasher of endless
oh.. and how do I know where to go "within" that tale? Follow the sword marker?
that explains it
each circle would be an area objective, the current one should be yellow. greyed out means not active now, and an x on it means you completed that stage
I mean when you look at the map
oh wow... havent even opened my map yet, after like 3 hours of gameplay

do u have to kill Nimrod in this mission
No
yes you do
suppose i shouldve said not in that stage
No, he'll move on after a bit but you can kill him, not mandatory
Not at this stage of the mission, you need to fight him until he leaves, he should appear twice before you reach where the poppet leads
so.. I died to Banneret, and now he's vanished - but I'm still in the tale and see him marked on the map. What do I do?
Is the objective "kill the banneret and their patrol"?
Yes! Synod's Finest
Means they went back to patrolling
I think my spell might've killed him while I was flying back to my corpse?
Gotta go find em on the road again
Ahh I see.. I'll look around thanks
i swear a god this is the worst tale i ever done where the water ?
are there headshot multipliers in the game as well
Barrels behind the grate high on the wall on the left
You were right mate!! I did find him wandering around
For bows and thrown weapon and flyblades, yes
Hooray!
okiee
no there is no barrels !!
break the barrels there, sometimes they get clogged
there is none the only barrel infrontr of me are not breakable
even after you broke the planks on the wall?
well time to relog
spectral sight should be highlighting these and other such blockages too
why it's always mysterious quest just give us straight froward quest this is exactly what got me quest the game on P10 bugged quest at the last stage where you don't get your rewards
"Draw me like one of your French Sinecure."
Some flute-minigames shows a strange symbol, like a bird. I have no idea what button to press when I see that, so it fails every time. Anyone else who's on controller and have experienced this?
You have to press the button for the line it's on
oh, ok! thanks
is the maestro bow still farmable
yes
Which one is best for Purity ?
Mad King
okie imma search it
maestro is from thawtide hunters only
he's a boss and he has rendom draps for this weapon frags
high level boss?
Not really easy to kill and you can alswys host for other players to help you
Any other event weapons worth making?
there's really only the 2
Thanks
Rostrum is unique in that it uses the dagger moveset that secondary short blades have, rather than the twin blades moveset primary short blades have
👀
I shall work on that tonight
I've got the fragments to make a couple extra just in case I want that but with different virtue scaling off blessed joineries
But with the reworks coming soon this might not be as relevant
is there a way to show enemy names
I have a question. I was given a code so im able to play. Now I want to know if I wanted to purchase the Founders pack. Does that get added to my account or is that a seperate account?
it gets added to your account
assuming you log in with the account that you used the code on
ok ok so then my account will have all the perks that go with it
yep!
Well, it's not a split-blade like the others. It's a single short-blade.
ok kewl and ty for the info and your time
Yeah, atm it's the only one of its kind that can be used as a primary rather than a secondary
It also has an unique stealth kill sound
Unless some other sidearm dagger has the same
do you know a spot where theres a lot of thawtide hunters
the only one i found is in the gate tower
they're random. best spot to get em to spawn is the NE bog. run around bog,kill what you find, relog, do it again
And it's noted in the description that normally it would be a secondary, if not for the people who tended the seeders and guarded the birds.
NE bog?
there's a bog north of creedance high, if you have name unlocked.
it's the farthest north east point on the map
It's oaver here.
okie thankss
get them world trees. it's very possible to farm out in a couple days. Just persistence.
im trying to get a bow cause the damage on oscelda is so dogsht
the starter wand has very low dmg
that's some slander
Back to talking about Rostrum, choosing a shortblade as a weapon so you can give the dead last rights as they die is kinda badass...
everything is terrible at lvl 1
damage is directly tied to level
it takes like 6-7 heavies on wand to kill the bulky guys
get it higher n you'll see more dmg.
Mix with pact abilities.
press 1 and heavy them, the damage on break is dependant on the hit received
And as you level the weapon up, make sure to invest in artes.
I see vids tho with bow 1 shotting with headshot xD
But yeah, when you're starting out, all of your stuff is goinna be low level and not fully optimized. You have to obtain and build and level up everything and build for that.
oki imma just grind more ig
is it the same on warframe where exp is shared across weaps?
might have to unequip my blade
Sorta.
75 25 active weapon and pact
With p13 possibly coming next week, there's also goinna be a lot of stuff changed.
split more evenly in a group
You forgot offhand weapon.
wait what level are the dudes here. am planning to just go there to grind and get exp
theyre mid 30's
30ish
okiess
only gets XP on squad kills. the rework made it so only weapon that was used to kill gains XP and your pact
Incorrect.
no, its correct to my knowledge
unless theyve changed the split again since that patch?
That was how the change was phrased in patch notes. Moaners, minstrels, chests, Avakot quest steps, etc all seem to give even split across all 3 though
But kills only go to in hand wep
im fairly confident the enemies do not, other sources definitely do
And pact
I've killed enemies, offhand weapon leveled up.
as cool as it sounds I don't think this is meant to be taken literally here
And I'm going off of what I've been doing the past week.
i mean, you get experience at the end of the tale. i've never had a level offhand level for no reason like that. just saying that's how it does and advertises to work
I did endless solo for 4 hours and didnt get a single level to my offhand
so my experience contradicts yours
Not doing tales.
I'm just running around in the area around Creedance high killing enemies. Ievery once in a while, get a notice that the weapon I'm not using has gained a level, I check, and yes, it gained a level.
there are other sources of experience, however kills work on a 75 25 split on weapon used on kills
I can attest to forgetting I hit to 30 on my main and never swapped to offhand, and that weapon didn't get a level the whole endless for example
thats my experience as well
Maybe some sort of difference between endless and open world?
no
🤷♂️
Guess it's just a mystery then. I don't have the tech knowledge to be able to specualte on what might be causing it "under the hood".
Curious if anyone has any insight on this. For anyone who has gotten a Gathannan drop anytime recently. Did you fight it in Cogah? Regular spawn or T3 mission? Were you in Alcas Children or some other faction. I just can't help but feel like it's not just any Vadagar Stag and there's another requirement. I know a lot of people struggle obtaining the weapon, but man, I've been farming it non-stop for 40-60 hours over four days.
it's really just unfortunate rng, it's a rare drop. some are lucky and get it quick, some can take quite a bit. sorry for the struggle
for me, it was stultin. was harder to get than gath and dew.
I got one in a t3 kith of kings stag, and another from a random spawn in cogah with silent rose
I think its genuinely just rng
Thanks for the info guys. That makes me hopeful. I got my Dewellion finished finally at least.
gath was my last weapon too
Luckily I got one of my Gathannan parts back during preludes 9 or 10. So I only need one drop.
keep recruitment chat open a d be ready to join every stag advertised while farming yourself
I eventually just stopped farming it after spending like 3 weeks on it. i got the 2nd fragment 3 days later
yeah i got it fairly quick back in p7… didn’t know how rare it was back then
paid my dues elsewhere at least
200 runs and never got a single one from Glades LMAO
ohhhh I can imagine
been on that side too, where helping someone in a raid gets them the drop the first time after alllll my tries
I confirm, i dont use the sidearm and its increasing in levels, slower than primary. (and vice versa when i only place sidearm)
what do i do with the extra runes ? i got 14 Forburn and I don t play sheild xD
opening chests, and general rewards like tales will also give XP for all
if you did an endless, you'll see it better. there's a lot of other sources of experience, and that 25 75 split only applies to kills
dissolve them for extra harmony to level up your runes and totems
What happens if Pact or Weapon is maxed, does the other get 100%?
But how do i do that cuz in the forge or inventory i can t interact with them
negative
can only do it in the armory. or whatever they call where you equip weapons. right click your weapon, and select runes or totems. you can uncheck the compatibility option to dissolve runes and totems no matter the weapon type, so you don't have to check each weapon tree.
I'd probably keep at least 3 of any totem tho, but you only need one rune of each
Ty, been strugling for 40 min to find how to disolve them
ywyw
i was in an awful guild in tbc classic where the guild leader would just snuff me every time we got an item i needed
I got chat banned before leaving the guild
lmao
not saying I don't get it sometimes... but I also would never go that far 
I mean i wasnt hurling slurs or anything, but it was definitely mean
oh I mean the slaying someone who got something you wanted after farming for a while
but yeah your reaction is completely understandable
OH i said snuff, i meant SNUB
i'd probably just farm a chest rotation for that. NE bog has quite a few of those. just run from each chest location i knew, relogged, ran looking for chests, didn't bother fighting. might take a minute as you familiarize yourself with chest locations, but it's probably the quickest active farm of it. also works for moranite/sappheline
Look for avakot
he sells 100 for 50 a piece i think
Ok managed to find Avakot and bought all that I needed XD
glad i could be of help xD
how to get invitation ?
thanks guys
doesn't need to be paragon pack
I hope they look into changing/removing the Greatsword Hilt bash attacks.
Conceptually they are cool, but functionally they make the weapon less effective.
take a chance anyone got a code 🍀
only really on the sprint attacks, yeah? heavy sprint is still a slash. the parry is a two stage attack, makes sense. also looks cool.
Maybe improving upon?
Spectre Strike
Sprint (Light attack)
Parry reposite
I guess it's not so much of an issue on the Parry but I feel it negatively effects me for the Spectre Strike and Sprint attack.
I always use the Sprint heavy attack instead, since it's a sweep instead.
It's also useful for the Paragon because the sprint heavy attack doesn't consume charges
it's definitely an option on the sprint tho, makes sense with how they sprint/hold the weapon at least.
ye
yeah, even the damage is different. charges are consumed on charged heavies
ig since it doesn't count as charged heavy
My issue is, is not just the lack of AoE on those hilt bash attacks, but they don't seem to have enough range and often you will use the attack and just... not connect with an enemy
majik
I'm having a problem with DirectX 12 support in the launcher; the option isn't showing up for selection. My GTX 1080 graphics card supports DirectX 12. Has anyone else encountered this problem and found a solution?
I'll never get over seeing a DE filepath name that doesn't have /Lotus/
i mean... that's with how it is just a case of having initiated the attack too early 
Do I need to craft Maestro before the event ends or as long as I have fragments I'm OK?
well that should be improving a bit soon hopefully. not even the only guilty party. daggers charged heavy doesn't hit if you're right on top of them, but it will if you're a bit away.
As long as you have the fragments you're ok
hit reg needs some work
Thanks
Thing is, Spectre Strikes are meant to be reactionary, not proactive attacks.
it breaks combat flow when any other weapon would have connected that
spectre strike's a bit different case than the running light attack ye 
it's not the only one guilty of missing a specter strike, it's a wip
It has a spectre strike, it's just the hilt bash attack shared for sprint attack and parry
seems like spectres are built around dodging side to side, but a back step can take you out of a fews range
It's just... ineffective.
I don't mean missing it literally, I mean not connecting the hit
waaait a sec i gotta do some testin about the spectre strikes ._.
But yeah, ironically the Greatsword feels better for dodging when you don't have the Spectre Strike perk.
However, that perk is required to get the perk for stagger on sprint attacks
So you're giving up a good perk in exchange for having a perk that makes you perform worse
ok yeah that is very odd... when the post dodge attack is not a spectre strike, it's a swing (which fits and feels a lot better) and when the attack is a spectre strike it's a hilt smack...
why DE 
hmm, I just use a stagger totem. I much prefer parrying over dodging in general because spectres strikes are a bit iffy and needs a lil work on actually closing that distance when you do it so it doesn't miss as much
i'd say just... switch around the attack types and it would make a lot more sense and feel better
cuz it should be two stage
the follow up slash is also spectre
you get the reward of a swing with a spectre strike and the "penalty" of a hilt smack without a perfect dodge
like how parry works, both hits are the parry
we love damage here
wdym the follow up slash is also spectre? 
it's just the 2nd attack from the regular light attack combo
whats the purpose of the animals you get
means they both benefit from the buff as being counted as strike. I don't really spectre, but parry works like that
They give a thing you can slot onto weapons for passive buffs
okie ill check
you get totems from them which are weapon upgrades. you can apply them to your weapons in your nightfold by right clicking on the weapon in the armoury
ohhhh
Taming them manually gives you points that can be used to enhance Runes and Totems but you can also sell dupes for the same currency

Keep an eye out for albino animals as they are more rewarding to tame.
ive captured a lot but i cant see any?
that's the runes you're looking at
Ah, each weapon type has them, (I think they should rework that personally)
the totems go on to the 3 slots on the edges
saw it hahahah tysm ❤️
just did the exact same amount of damage on the slash after the hilt strike of a spectre strike as with just doing the 2nd attack of the light combo normally ._.
also pull smite is the basic attack for wands right?
well... 1 point of damage difference
pull smite is Q+M1
used for yoinking the enemy souls that appear when you proc smite on an enemy, the torso glows red/blue/green
deals damage to the enemy, and if you have the pact upgrade unlocked, also heals you
also required to properly kill certain enemies
ohhh. i saw like blue orbs on their bellies some times
I'm so confused... how is this an alpha build?
oki i learned something new xD
because it is 
alpha doesn't mean you can't have a good looking game 
not eveb alpha really
fine. pre-alpha
pre-alpha
I've been gaming actively since 1999, and this is like, one of the most stunning experiences I've had - ever
even better
I'm baffled.. I don't even know what to say
it's just gonna keep on getting better 
prob gonna be so much better xD
like P13 next week is gonna bring a lot of improvements on its own already
alrdy feels like budget skyrim alrdy xD
The emotions I've felt already.. like the sequence when I defeated the first boss.. I got chills, teary eyes, everything.. Sure I'm fan-boying rn, and I'm even sober
they were supposed to post the workshop 2 days and still havent, starting to doubt P13 will be next week even
this is better than elden ring, I'm calling it rn.. and I've got thousands of hours on the souls series
they were recording the soulshort on wednesday
usually takes a couple days before they release those
well i admittedly assumed because parry works like that, i don't have the perk on gs anymore
Just sayin, i've seen enough DElays in my life to not get my hopes up
i do find it kinda cool that if you do 1 light attack and then a heavy, the heavy attack will be the 2nd attack of the heavy combo and same the other way, including spectre strikes for example.
like they share the "combo counter" 
think it just takes into account which side it's on at the start, cuz it'll also do it at like the third step. gotta love animations
Yeah sorry for another noob question - but the spectre strike. I'm not sure if I hit it correctly.. should I be able to tell or not? Is there some timing to it that I might not know about? All I need is to press dodge right before the attack, right? I did manage to parry without issues, but I have no idea if I ever hit a spectre strike..
If anyone could help me out I'd be forever greatful
wish they didn't lock you in animation after the 4th step tho
there will be a yellow glow, and a sound effect if you timed it right
there is a sound effect for it, like a swoosh
also the attack is different than a normal light or heavy
ye because 1st light attack counts as 1st heavy attack in the combos, 2nd light attack counts as 2nd heavy attack, 3rd light attack counts as 1st heavy attack, 4th light attack counts as 2nd heavy attack.
for example
4 light attacks in the light combo, 2 heavy attacks in the heavy combo. ya kno?
well there are some like daggers for example where the fourth still is still a first stage heavy, which is why i think there's just a check on where it's closest on
but also if you do 2 heavy attacks, you'll end up doing the 3rd attack from the light combo as the next one,
same with if you do 3 heavy attacks, you'll end up doing the 4th attack from the light combo
but is there some quirk to it, like press it when they start the swing animation, or should I just match it as close to impact as possible like in GoW?
just timing, like parries
the i-frames of dodges can also be extended by just rolling right after so you can get a preeetty long i-frame sequence going
i gotchu, just not that all weapon timings worked like that. ik for sure dagger doesn't, cuz i also noted how cool it works for greatsword and i usually dagger sidearm
ya
i find i need to go a bit earlier than i think i should if that helps lol
once you understand that window it'll be easy, though there are also totems to extend the dodge/parry window too
it would seem it does work the same for sidearm daggers 
both third and 4th step heavy from the right
alright.. I'll keep trying. I'm not sure if I hit it, there's usually so much going on since most enemies are in huge packs! It feels like I manage to dodge in the last millisecond a lot of times, but it just looks like a normal dodge to me. And yes I have the "spec" 😄
Also, is there anything to the dead bodies who stays on the ground? Some dissapear, while others don't!?
after the 2nd heavy attack, you do the 3rd light attack from the light combo, same with the 3rd heavy attack and 4th light attack yes

same interaction happens if you do light attacks and interrupt the light combo with a heavy attack 
the perfect dodges will make your body glow yellow and theyll have a sound effect to it 
as to the dead bodies? no, nothin special
I don't wanna spam this channel.. but I've got so many questions lol. I think I'm doing it right now at least, but I don't feel like it does any crazy amount of damage, maybe on par with a normal heavy attack
nah go ahead and ask as much as you want 
well, it's not suppose to like one shot enemies like a souls-riposte right?
there's a daily cap of 20 questions a day, resets at 7pm
no, a lot will die to that depending on level tho
it feels more like a faster attack, than something that does any crazy amount of damage
doing the post perfect dodge attack does require you to have the Spectre Strike combat art but yeah it doesn't do ridiculous damage. it'll be similar to some heavy attack or a bit less than a parry riposte yeah
if we're talking 30+, won't be one shotting with it at least
spectre strikes are meant to be a quick response attack and gap closer after a perfect dodge yeah, not a massive damage dealer
also, your damage and virtue alignment play heavily on your own answer. parries aren't gonnna 3 stage one tap someone like in dark souls tho
Ahh thanks, that explains it. I think I got my expectations wrong from the descriptions saying "devastating damage"
it's more damage than a normal hit
"devastating" is a bit much for it yeah in the description 
yeah, it feels like i need 3-4 hits to kill my enemies regardless if I start with a spectral strike or not. But it does feel pretty nice lol!
wow mahoosive damage difference, did 106 damage to a lvl 11 heavy mace sinecure with a regular hit, then 111 with a spectre strike 
with what tho, I've seen more than that on gs I think, like 20 points
awwwww i just barely missed the funi... if only there was a way to get rid of specifically 98 dracs
not saying it's huge, just haven't seen a 5 point difference
ye it was definitely a bigger damage difference to a regular sinecure
like 10-15 points
armor related shenanigans? mayhaps...
o, yeah it could stand to be a lil stronger. and maybe yeah. long as they give it a bit more range so it more reliably hits on a backstep, I'd be happy with it
nothing costs 500 dracs yeah? 
oh wait avakot... for the first time im excited to go see that thing
oh would ya look at that he got brass for the next 24min
nice
i also think that was like... my first or 2nd time buying anything from him
not too far away yeah
Really!? In the middle of the Cogah run?!
can't say i've had that happen before 👀
Mentally I panicked thinking "Oh my god I'm dead."
I didn't even know you could ESC out of it until I tried then
I've had it before. it was mad annoying. this deer wouldn't run away and kept running between me and them
against this boss too pff
Can someone help me? I'm stuck here and the doors won't open. There are two, and neither of them will open.
ain't no way
if neither of the doors are still opening, try relogging.
it's a "loading screen" of sorts
shouldn't take more than a couple seconds usually tho
..........WHAAAAAAT
why does the wardag stag boss have a gray healthbar? what does that mean?
ok, thank you very much
means your light attack damage is too low to get thru the enemys armor.
heavy attacks in 95% of cases will still go thru tho
so.. what should I do?
mmmm do heavy attacks?
oh so some enemies just has this, there's no way around it?
no it happens when the enemys armor is "too high" for your current weapon
if your weapon has a higher light attack damage number, the healthbar won't be grey
oh.. so I'm supposed to like grind stuff before I proceed with the "main" story? How do I "upgrade" my weapon tho? I've been playing like 5 hours or more but I'm level 1 with the starter weap
your account level might be level 1 yeah.
your pact and weapon will be higher than that tho
the weapons rank you can see in your inventory even
ranking it up will increase the damage of it
-# and yes in this case level = rank
ok so.. best way to be like roaming the open world, finding enemy packs and killing them to level it up? I was hoping I'd get the chance to craft something else before I do that 😄
yeeeah pretty much. you should get guided to a fable tho that will unlock crafting if you haven't done it yet
but also crafting timers exist
yeah I have unlocked crafting, but I have no "blueprints" for weapons within my "affinity"
but still, is it kind of like a sign for me to slow down my main story progression and explore a bit more? or should I just push through?
i mean you can get the 2 other starting weapons and possibly a sidearm aswell from your faction
but ye one of the story fables is a teeny bit of a damage and survivability check so not exactly suggested to rush thru all of it
ah ok, so most people had this fight with him on a gray hp bar? just wanna make sure i didn't do anything wrong lol
which weapon are you using?
that means your damage is low for the enemy, usually only happens from an underleveled weapon. doesn't mean you're not hurting it at all tho, use heavy attacks
ok so Gwylen 
you should be able to just heavy attack the Stag, that should deal enough
as in deal an acceptable amount of damage instead 1 point
but my attunement is spirit, would it make sense to craft a grace sidearm? its the only one I can make rn
yeah but won't it deal less damage? what does the attunement even do then?
it just means you won't be doing the most damage with it right now, damage is tied to level and virtue
still usable, long as it's leveled
the attunement stuff isn't necessary unless the weapon has a "Attunement requirement" of 10 or 20 points
well my gaming-sense is telling me to wait until I can craft another spirit attuned weapon 😄
but do keep in mind you can also freely redistribute the virtue points from one virtue to another
if you wanna level a bit, I suggest watching recruiting chat for endless runs, they say like e for endless if you say e, they'll invite you. it's the best leveling right now, if that's what you wanna do
Can be a grey guy and totally kill it according to totems and rune
with Oscelda for example, it's perfectly fine to throw all your points into grace or courage even tho spirit has the highest base virtue point count
if you're chasing weapon damage*
i see! and that small white bar under the health, is that like a stagger bar, sekiro style?
ye
when it fills up, you get knocked over
"Stability Defence" will reduce the amount it'll fill up by from getting hit, or blocking an attack
yeah because this boss also has that, but it just replenishes too fast for me to fill it up
it gets easier. helps to keep up little hits to maintain it
since I think you're using oscelda, 3 does some great stagger damage
I hope the crafting system loses the wait time, it really doesn't fit the game imo
not gonna happen 
not gonna be removed, not in this life time
game's free to play, completely.
crafting timers are an incredibly fair way to monetize, even if not a very effective way to make money.
and if you wanna go to specifics... crafthing a thing doesn't happen instantly, it does take hours.
Pay to skip is a way less predatory monitisation, which DE prefers
What am I supposed to do with this bonfire?
I'm like hard-stuck on this mission.. bugged?
nothing, that mission is literally kill all the sinecure in the dungeon
the normal armored enemies
the "adds" that were close to the boss in that swamp?
I just ignored those lol!
the bird-guide keeps leading me back to that bonfire..
might just be the center of the map, but that mission description on the left is telling the most. i know it well, but yeah y ou gotta kill em all 
so the boss was optional? lol that's confusing.. I've been roaming around here looking for more armored slugs for 10 min+ at this point
maybe a re-log would fix it
yeah, unless a tales is saying you have to kill a boss, you could run right through a dungeon and exit without killing something 
prolly, but it means the whole dungeon. might be some pathways you haven't taken yet
you can use the bird to find your tales goal in a dungeon
well it's an open area with no sense of direction, and the map isnt explored here yet, so pretty hard to know where to go
yeah the bird takes me back the the bonfire
the goal is the entire dungeon here, it just brings you to the near center afaik
is that a new one? Never seen that before
best to backtrack and check each possible exit a room has. but it's alright to relog and start that part over too if that's easier
it's a seldom one true... for good reason. it takes way too damn long. this is why i prefer non-dungeon tales.
you know we do
hmm.. now I found this? Can't interact with this either?
prolly just a prop
its where my guide now leads me instead lol! this is confusing as fk 
open your map
Wow. I maxed all the lines and got all the things and never saw that one. I am crazy lucky.
oh my bad
it's brewer of hues stage, i just looked at free this land from the sinecure and assumed you were doing the sparrow tales version
look for a caged animal nearby i believe where you are
if you freed it already, follow it
verryyy lucky. if you farm NE, it's a very rare dungeon objective there
yeah it was like a beaver leading me here, and when I got here I got a voice line saying "poppy, come here". Then I'm stuck again
i can record my gameplay since you dont seem to believe me
trust me I spam that button all the time 😄
hm? do you mean literally stuck? use /unstuck
i thought you meant that metaphorically 
yeah not stuck-stuck, but the spectral sight leads me to this "prop".. so there's no direction for me to go.. it leads to a dead end
yeah that is how I did it. Through NE until cap, then repeat next time I got on.
spectral sight doesn't "lead" anywhere, just highlights things. relog again and use it to highlight and follow the animal
another reason why we love it. trust me if it had more dungeon runs, we'd be farming elsewhere just for speeds sake 
last time i was like well i'll just do it this one time, it's been a while and it sucked cuz it took a while pfft
there has to be a button to interact with it yeah
sometimes you just gotta try approaching it from a different angle but it should be interactable
it wasn't unwatchable, it was fine
did you kill all the sinecure? cuz you shouldn't be there at this step
prolly why the statue won't activate, it doesn't recognize that you're at this step
@dreamy thistle
i mean they did say they chased a beaver so either they cant tell animals apart or they really chased a totally unrelated animal
the video did help cuz i saw you were at her door, but still at a previous stage in the fable
Here's a better recoding.. sorry for the HDR making it unwatchable for some reason
i already saw it, it was fine. but your bird shouldn't be leading you here
you should've killed all the guys around the tower
Try disableing fog?
I did that before I killed the stag tho! I'll backtrack again I guess
is that the cogah quest?
that door won't open until the stage is at "Pursue the poppet"
no, it's verminia's quest
No.
fog? on my monitor the game looks incredible.. its just that recoding HDR gameplay looks strange on a SDR output
Ah gotcha. Could not remember which one from her it was
i got hdr, and yeah it doesn't translate well to non-hdr
Invite someone in there with you and run around till it's all dead
It's the one to obtain her.
cuz yeah you kinda skipped a step, haxborn.
No. That fable breaks extra-hard when done with multiplayer.
i think it already did cuz his sparrow is leading him to a stage above his quest description 
Try relogging and cashe optimizing. That often works ot reset stuck fables.
not really stuck, just gotta find that tower and kill em
Well, verminia's is known that if yo skip a step, it tends to become stuck.
wow... i did relog and this time it spawned a freaking boss named nimrog!!!!
he one shot me, and now he's vanished lmao
dw bout that part pff
so I werent supposed to defeat him?
no
well it's possible, but unlikely the first time
well he asked supposed not possible lol
the quest just wants you to run along
pfft okay
yeah he did appear again, and I took him down to like 30%, then he ran away, so I guess I'm on the right path again 😄
can u spawn circada multiple times in a day using different talismans ?
now that is a wide screen
(same day and night)
no, once a night
so i need 3 days to get the talisman?
yep yep yep
yeah now it took me to that same place, which triggered a flute minigame! finally yaay!!
MOM GET THE CAMERA
guys, when i kill MK in cogah mode, he never spawn`s
i have to leave cogah and go again?
he's kinda bugged in cogah, might need a relog. vella also drops treefell though, and they are on a 30 minute timer
but vella is in dg?
i have to do all dg
in a dungeon yeah
you can just run by everything and fight what's just before the boss, a lot of the times there's enough space that nothing chases you there anyway too
i will do that tks
does this only drops from the hard red mode or it can also drop in the normal mode ?
cogah only, hard mode
oh i see thank you
if I craft a weapon with courage attunement, and re-allocate my virtues to courage, will it affect my magick damage in a negative way? or does virtue only affect my weapon damage?
If by magic damage you mean pact abilites, it will effect damage depending on the pact, by giving you more, as courage scales the damage of abilites when applicable
ah ok, so the "meta" is basically - always reallocate your virtues according to the weapon you currently want to use, as well as what your pact scales with if applicable? I can't see any attunement on my current pact so I guess it doesnt matter for this one
I'm using the Oscalda, and I can't see anything on there that signals that any attunement would affect those magicks
oh nvm - I just found the pact-upgrade menu.. forget what I just asked
Oscelda is a spirit attuned pact, but pact attunement hardly matters currently, all it means is you start with some extra base points in the attuned virtue
You are correct in saying you want to allocate your virtues based on your weapon rather than pact if its a choice you have to make
When it comes to pact abilites, where applicable, Courage scales damage, Spirit scales duration and Grace scales range. So not speccing spirit in a spirit pact doesn't really matter too much
Bare in mind this will all change next week when virtues get reworked
yeah once I saw the upgrade menu I understood a bit more how it's designed, since I can upgrade my pact to increase both grace and courage! I think I might try some courage weapons tomorrow once my crafting is done!!
Oh.. like a total re-work, or just general adjustments/changes?
Pretty much total, near enough the only thing that will be the same is there being 3 virtues called Courage, Spirit and Grace, basically everything else about how and what they scale as well as weapon, ability and armour scaling will change
Yeah I can't bring myself to sign on until the update comes.
I think I'm still high.
Woke up from the Cogah and there's a floating rabbit in my tent.
bnuy
Leaked Omen Beast: Giant Rabbit
if no kill why food shaped
true the ode are very food shaped, let us cook the ode and make buffs from them
Hey everyone, how's it going?
I'm new here, and I can't wait to get a key. Will there be a drop on Twitch on Tuesday?
I registered on the website on Wednesday; I think it takes a while to register online.
Thanks.

i just want an option to hid the claws on the orengall pact, theyre super upgly to me for some reason
So yes you will be able to get a key from the twitch stream, make sure you link your spulframe account to your twitch account.
And Wednesday they release 2000 keys randomly at 2PM ET every week however it’s completely random and not guaranteed.
Thx Bro. I did that. Now I'm wait for Dev stream.
you can soul-steal it, but i'm not sure if it really does anything
It's a holdover from when you had to soul-steal to recharge your abilities; not sure it does anything now beyond give some small amount of xp
oh god i remember that. dark times
it certainly made you engage in combat differently, that's for sure
wouldn't mind that being like a challenge dungeon/mode though
cogah giving you massively increased cooldown time has brought back some of that feeling for me, without the frustration of your ability use being essentially tied to rng lol
yeah, if your class didn't have a good/useful Red ability, you were fairly hosed during most Dermak runs - lots of torches to refuel from, not so much everything else
yeah, Cogah's pretty close
yeah i remember lots of times when i was thinking, "man i would love to use my spirit/grace ability but i haven't seen a green/blue flow in the last 20 minutes"
many were the time when you'd get maybe 1 or 2 at most of those in an entire dungeon
think it's meant to make you play towards mechanics and preparation, otherwise an oscelda will just petrify things over and over. staggering your abilities instead of bursting em all out at once, it's a lil different like that and i like it
and that would have been fine minus the rng element, tbh
(which is why i really like cogah for the increased cd)
of course, enemies were... pretty exploitable back then. Always just one enemy attacking at a time, so you could bait them into attacks->parry->dispatch accordingly. Now things tend to get a bit more hectic
ah missed the first bit. yeaahhh, i don't miss the random arcanics
I know Soulframe is about protecting, reclaiming and helping Nature but so help me Lua, every time one of these dogs doesn't leave the area properly and turns aggro and immortal I want to give them the Warframe treatment.
LOOK AT THIS! I'M BEING ATTACKED BY A DOG THAT WAS 90% DESPAWNED AND LOOKS NEARLY ENTIRELY INVISIBLE!
Would make for a cool enemy not gonna lie, if it wasn't immortal.
How can we tell which parts of the triune talisman we've completed, if we dont remember which we';ve done?
you can still proc smite on dog, which seems to work in getting rid of it for right now
predadog
I will be honest, I've never been attacked in a game before by a half-despawned NPC
when will the new updates be added tthat they had talked about in there last live stream?
Presumably next week, DE doesn't work on Saturdays/Sundays unless an emergency comes up that needs an immediate fix.
okay thank you for the info.
Did Bromius eat a giga nerf recently?
I've been watching videos to catch up on stuff I've missed since Preludes 9, and I saw a few videos about how good Bromius was
I tried out the exact same setup, but when I do it, I can't even take off half the HP of extremely low-level enemies
against anything higher than lv 6, Bromius's 3 + 1 combo with 40 Courage barely tickles enemies, and doesn't even stagger them
I can understand nerfing a two-ability nuke, but did Ode Tempest and Bromius need to be nerfed into "this Pact does literally nothing" territory?
What's 'imp-share'
Um, im stuck.
How do you reach 40 points in a virtue, is it buff assisted?
Castellian huthra cant get me here tho?
Found a point in the corner it let me jump out of nvm
can someone remind me what these are?
motes, grab it with pull smite, soul mode + light attack
they reveal the location names
great, thanks!
So when a weapon shows attunement "2 blue starburst" for example. Does that mean it's damage is going to scale with grace? Or is this something I should reconsider after preludes 13?
Trying to figure out which weapon set I am gonna fall into, I went bow first. Because I knew when I bring my friends in they only know "bonk", but now am feeling like I dont like either the moveset of the bow or maybe its because I need to get a different pact.
Yeah currently every point in grace will increase its damage, P13 will change things quite a bit and no full details yet.
Alright, then I am just not feeling it. I usually prefer greatsword, or a board, beefy tank/dps. So just gonna have to stick this until I get new weapons and pact to switch, nbd.
Does anyone know how to fix this bug? It's happened to me about four times while making the COGA, and I have to keep quitting because of it.
I can't stand having to pay off these payments anymore, just to fix things, and I'm losing my progress on the project.
i was once attacked by an enourmous dog that was bigger in size than the corrupted stag boss and i thought it was a boss fight but after defeeating it easily it turned norma and ran like the ohters
You doing it with the 90+ armor as well?
Are you slowed aswell? Friend of mine had this too when we ran cogah but it passed away when we began fighting the next boss. Dk if that was the fix though
Yes, this method still works for me too, so if you encounter this error, you need to move on to the next boss, and everything will be fine.
Sometimes we see this purple screen when we start a boss fight and leave the battle zone during combat. If the boss is killed in this zone, the screen with this bug may remain like this until the next battle, until the system recognizes that you are in the appropriate zone for the next battle.
Okay good to know it wasnt per chance thank you 👍
Was the same for my friend too like you described it
i want buy game , but i don't know what pack i buy , can you help me ?
I love Paragon pack, if you will have this pack, you will be able to increase your rank by 1 point more than other players, allowing you to spend one more point in the skill tree because the pack contains many weapons for leveling up and pacts that give experience to your account rank. Therefore, if you have the financial means to purchase it and want to support the game, I would recommend the Paragon pack.
In my experience I would buy wyld tethren, it’s by far imo the strongest one that I have played.
Sirin is okayish, so is ocelda as it has a heal and focused more around the mage kind of feel. Good do beginners.
But personally tethren you really can’t go wrong with it, especially as it’s most likely still going to be meta next preludes with the virtue re work.
yes but tethren sirin or oscelda , i see oscelda it's good but don't know
Get tethren if you had to choose one, you won’t regret it.
so i found a campsite where there are 8-9 enemies and almost a guarantueed caged animal and im just logging on and off, is this a good farming strat for totems or there are more areas that yield more
whats the best long blade for courage?
Marrow's bane
oh ok thank you
I wish we had more clean long blades like Vetch/Wulder.
best pacts with bow? except sirin ofc
I read Tethren is excellent with a bow, with Fellust being kinda OP.
can someone help me farm skilter sidearm and hurlwind rune?
For me its Oscelda with Blitzel and Flyblades + Alcas Breath Rune and most virtue points into courage. The dmg with the rune active while enemies are bestoned is really good at least in normal mode havent played it in cogah yet.
just out of curiosity anyone know if theres a known bug with the sidearms compendium showering an extra skilter, odiac and vertigris?
That one is normal. You find them in places with corruption.
Hi everyone, how to get out a dungeon i went i am beginner but how to escape ? the bird direction send me further mobs are lvl 12 and am 3
if you can't make it to the normal exit, you can just turn around and leave through the entrance
i died and i saw i was playing the bird but couldnt find a way, then my character ressurect at a tomb grave thing
yes, that's normal
up to how many levels can a totem be upgraded
Game design question: why is there a limited amount of time for your sparrow to find your body? I haven't figured out what mechanical purpose that serves so I'm just curious.
I haven't had trouble getting to my body in time, but it doesn't really seem to add anything and I can see it being frustrating for a new player to be suddenly ripped back to the respawn point while flying to their body (doesn't seem to be any range or timer indicators either)
I guess it makes sure you don't just sit in bird form and fly around forever
up to level 3, where it will have 3 leaves / flowers around its ring
thanks! are all the animals I get the same? or there are levels to it as well. I see a number on the upper right
i think this is just in lieu of any actual consequence to dying. we don't lose anything by dying (unless you're in cogah, in which case it just kicks you out and you need to drink a new cogah potion to re-enter), and so the only real punishment is that if you don't find your body in time, you lose the time it takes to get back to where you were
the number 6
there are tiers, the color of the leaves / ring around the animal tells you roughly how strong it is for that particular weapon, but it's important to note that you won't find the same totem in different tiers within the same weapon. the number in the top-right doesn't mean anything in regards to power.
okie thanks
we reckon eventually there will be some kind of consequence though? Maybe kicked back to a faction hub or something? Or maybe only in dungeons/kicked back to the entrance if you die too many times or something? I don't hate that there isn't really a consequence for dying. The convinience of not having to run back to your spot, even in sparrow form, is enough fo a motivator to play well and not die for me
maybe boss health resets unless you're in a co op instance or something?
Hi people, how can I get a key?
The top-right is just the index number for the animal type. It's explained in full for you on the https://wiki.avakot.org/Totems page:
I'm not sure. the game isn't supposed to be particularly punishing, so they may be avoiding death penalties for that reason
Is there a daily limit for faction points?
This game tells us barely anything
it is way too cryptic
16k is the daily cap atm
It wont stay as "no consequences whatsoever" no
guys, is there a good place to farm the stultin?
wiki says it drops from normal and armored mockeries
any place thats a nice hotspot where sirin can yoink a lot of souls?
I'd say primarily go with the one you like the cosmetics of the most tbh, and my suggestion would be grabbing a different pact than the one that you wanna start with, so that you can start with 2 pacts and then be like me and fall in love with your starting pact so you buy their founder pack then decide that you already bought 2 might as well grab paragon
Underwater combat in preludes 13?
u can place a totem on another weapon right? without unequipping it
Long as it's the correct weapon type, ye
so at best i should just save 3 copies of a totem, and then free the rest
If you wanna use the same totem in different slots yeah, tbh I never considered that lol
okie thanks!!
hey, where can i get gathanan
best way to find motes? (googley eyed black blobs in smoke)
am kinda confused, the nettle and the royal tines are both short blades but i cant equip royal tines as sidearm?
most dual-shortblades are primaries, most single-shortblades are sidearms
in p13 we're getting a dual-shortblade sidearm, and the currently active thawtide event drops a single-shortblade primary
okie
how do i find vetch fragments?
Enclave Tales can drop it as a reward, and the spider bosses also drop it
T1 and T2 Tales specifically
ok thanks
I think that there might be glitches in Faction quest.
Twice the element requires for their completion, seemed to be missing. 1st a document then 2nd an entire enemy encounter?
there are certain spots where that might happen yeah
I was reading wiki and realized that I opened a crypt days ago without going in, will it keep staying opened?
Are dungeon tales exclusive to each enclave? With Alca's children its always undercity, i am swimming with orange/purple joineries but 0 blue and green
Or did I waste a key
Great question, I don't think anyone's ever tested how long a crypt entrance stays open if you don't go in! I'd guess it probably resets after relog or reload of the world (i.e. doing a dungeon)
But don't worry about having wasted a key, there are near infinite keys, they drop from enemies all over the place 
Yeah I have a lot in my inventory, but still
fr i got like 200 crypt keys or smth
would make the most sense for it to close after you reload the world via in/out of a dungeon or relog/restart yeah
@dawn arrow
According to the green are supposed to be in the Glade of Andurin.
I've only found 1.
not exclusive no
Is there anything to note that would contribute to me not getting one or two shot? I haven't understood the armor and stats too well since it's getting reworked soon anyways. (seemed to do okay with Orengall spirit or courage build. Seem to be getting utterly clapped with the same armor on Garren Rood)
armor's not really getting reworked, it's just getting some "optional" buffs
yeah but like. how stagger works, we're getting new animations for some weapons, what armor you can effectively used based on stats etc. IDK I watched the dev stream and vaugely understood
suggested to use totems on your weapons tho that also increase your defence stats
I do have one that increases magic defence. is it maybe that I'm lacking in physical defence? Find that hard to believe though because it's my highest stat
I have a mix of the thawtide and reagent set for armor
Part of it as well can be stagger issues
all armor is gonna work just as well post P13 as it does now, it's just that you can get some extra stat buffs from having proper virtue distribution
I don't feel like I'm getting staggered so much as, get hit twice by a melee enemy and boom I'm a bird sitting ona waystone
If you get staggered repeatedly you can get stunlocked and be unable to avoid damage, which is part of the p13 changes
What level enemies are they?
what level enemies are you going up against and what is your total armor count?
lemme double check the armor value. but I'm struggling with 25+ enemies. I was fine against the thawtide enemies getting to 30+ when farming for the thawtide gear though
Oh! Also, are you making sure to assign your Virtues? Each point assigned gives some health atm.
(I did use a lot of hit and run stealth with Sirin/Orengal but still)
yeah mine are all assigned
Ah, level 30 enemies are a bit on the higher end, and you're only using about mid tier armour.
idk maybe I'm just not dodging enough? it seems strange cos it feels like... I could get clapped before but at least I'd be able to go 'yeah okay I shoudl have dodged' but now I'm like... excuse me?
Stagger is all over the place atm, hopefully it gets changed for the better in P13.
ah ok, so closer to the lower end then
totems can help a lot with armor amount
Regeant headpeice and legs, thawtide curious. it's 15/19/9. Didn't invest in stagger cos usually I'm able to dodge
and I do have a slightly upgraded magick armor on my greatsword
okay I was wrong it's not upgraded. The Sodden +8 magick armor is all
What's your life total under your Virtues?
when going against lvl 25+ you should aim to have above 60-70 armor atleast if you're not gonna be dodging absolutely every single hit
FR? damn okay I'm WAY under
Okay, so you're relatively low Envoy rank overall, and don't have solid totem setup and mid tier armour, while fighting fairly high level enemies...we may have found the issue.
yep
well, I'm working on collecting more stuff. I figured I'd have more trouble with bosses than average world enemies alas
I'm trying to get better armor I just. don't. yet xD
farming for fragments for now
thank god there's no slot cap on armor at least
Consider farming Mendicant King for his armour if you can, it's high tier and fairly well balanced statswise.
yeah I can handle him well enough. most bosses, weirdly enough, I can handle myself. I've gotten the basic fire run for most weapons I like and stuff.
Also, charm EVERY animal you find if you can.
Build a solid bank of Totems and Harmony, you'll really want those defense slot stats soon-ish too.
yeah I have been haha. I spent a lot of the currency on leveling up a smite chance totem for a weapon I don't use anymore so RIP but new players gonna do new player things
do any of the weapon runes give an extra defence totem slot?
For some reason, with a bow rank 17 i am doing 1000+ damage headshot with a single arrow to Thrice, tried Vella, i only do 180
I'm not married to the garren rood pact I just, finished farming it recently and am trying it out
Some. The Archstorm rune/lightning Flyblades run do, and a few of the Cogah runes
What’s a good armour set to go after Tempest?
mockeries have wild headshot multipliers for whatever reason yeah
I should probably wait until P13 though with all the armour changes.
not ready for cogah yet, but I'll keep in mind
Tempest is a mid tier armour set, are you looking for a lateral shift or an upgrade?
I'm also wondering how armors will work but considering my account level is still low I imagine it's worth just farming everything for the xp anyway
worth still farming them if you want to collect all the fashion! 
armour doesn't provide mastery, that's weapons and pacts - but yeah I'd recommend armour for fashion as above haha
the changes to armor aren't gonna be crazy like that so i wouldn't say there's any need to wait for P13
Better stagger resistance mainly from grenades, I usually just parry/dodge everything.
Mockery armour from the Thrice Bound Impedh
Some of the best Stagger Resist in the game.
oh no I meant weapons. Cos I have built weapons I don't really wanna use. so imma grind them for mastery and sell them to free up the slots
Also consider Deer defense totems
Gotcha, Thanks for the tip.
Do note that even if you minmax stagger resist however, it won't reduce the stagger animation times in most cases
It's getting a rework soon because it was very often overriden
What it will do will make it harder to knock you prone
That’s good to hear, getting knocked down from being punched by a Thawtide Hunter Archer albeit a lv50 one is kinda silly.
oh my, just when i complained about it, just got my glades as a faction tale at rank 4 lol

and the first chest gave me polished quicksilver joinery, whats happening. Maybe i should ocmplain alot here
what do u do here
After completing Gurren Rood - Torment Stag.
I realized something? Despite this game being open world, there is a definite order in which the quest are meant to be played.
Because I wondered around hunting Runes and Totems. I had out leveled the quests
@narrow condor play the music.
what key to press for this
That i don't know.
Even on controller there isn't an a button for the symbols
How does the mockery set compare to the mendicant set?
Im thinking of purchasing a founder pack. Whats the difference between oscelda and wyld oscelda??
Wyld Has 9 spirit points while normal has 5 points. They share the same skill tree, so if you level both to max you get 30 + 30 (total 60 points) for oscelda skill tree
So prime Warframe
Ty!
are there specific tales to get vetch fragments or something i couldnt get any
Tier 1 or 2, any faction.
Well, you can try the other listed sources too
Not sure if they're any better though

also killed one of those bosses but it didnt drop it either. i guess ill be farming the tales
Probably not a spoiler, but spoilering it just to be safe. Topic: baffled by a puzzle in the Crypts.
||So finally delving into the crypts, and I've been bumbling around these rooms trying to figure out this puzzle. Using the abilities of the same color does nothing, there's a pressure pad that seems to do nothing, and one that I'm clearly supposed to push a statue onto but I can't move the statue. Anyone know how this puzzle works?||
Всем привет
there sort of is. a couple can be played out of order. but for some, there are prerequisites yes
Have to build it, the only way you get a Pact without building it is by buying with Arcs. (other than the starter one ofc)
You have to use spirit sight to find trees with claws in them, I think there's three
Then you see the notes
i found them alrdy hehe thank you!
these are all separate puzzles actually
for the statue-pushing one: ||have an enemy stand in front of the statue long enough for it to slide all the way across the room||
for the color murals: ||kill the circade in front of each of them (this will take multiple runs)||
the latter is part of a bigger puzzle
Ohhh, so I gotta do multiple runs and lure the boss into that room
for the murals yes
is it possible to change genders? the wyld oscelda male looks like a grown man wearing kid's tshirt
you look like you're wearing slices of ham or bacon
||Those are a different puzzle. That rooms puzzle is with the ghosts and the statue||
just saw on reddit xD
I'm confused, you're not wearing the wyld oscelda male? You're wearing the female?
It got updated very quickly after release
the poster is wearing male
Nope, they're wearing female (see male on right above)
are you sure you're not just looking at an old and outdated post?
im alrdy near max lvl 30 so im thinking bout buying the wyld
so this is the new look?
For males yes, females get to keep the original
okiee ❤️
is there any point to having multiple of the same totems?
Yes, you can use 3 (one per slot)
when a rune is slotted, can you use 2 of them on the same segment?
identical totems
Nope - see https://wiki.avakot.org/Totems:
ah thank you
so you only need 3 of each totem, past that theyre essentially useles at least for now?
you can release the totems to convert them to Harmony
same with runes
but yeah other than that extras would be useless
thank you
primary is normal
Yeah. It's a known typo.
also does +attack speed affect heavy attack charge rate
Quick question : Is there a wipe because we're in Alpha or not ?
Also no
is the bear quest the last available quest?
It can be. Some of em can be done out of order but if you have 8 fables in your Journal, that's all
As Wagiii pointed out, Fables aren't completely liniar. DE's said that's by design.
im missing the wolf. where can I trigger it
walk around, look for red balloons. not the ones in forts.
Find a red balloon at night somewhere in the midwest of the map 
okie i saw one earlier
Has there been any word about Pact reworks and buffs?
I would hope they don't stay as the same "this Pact has one good ability, and the others might as well not even exist "
they've gotten buffs and some changes with the past couple preludes already 
Not speificically. But current focus is on p13's changes to virtures. There might also be some pact ajustmets. We'll have to see when we get more info.
ive been champoning this since i started playing the game lol
If you watch all of the devstreams and soulshorts and envoy hours, DE doesn't want stuff to feel useless or too over-powered. That's the thing. They're still trying to find the proper balance. If something is feeling like it's useless, add feedback on how it could be improved in #1438224662344761345 .
balance has also gone from one end to the other constantly with the past few updates
i have thats where ive been champoning it, dont want to clog this chat with it was just mentioning it since someone else did
Is there a wiki the community considers to be the "best" or most up to date? Or are we too early days to really have that yet
Something to see drop tables for specific fragments and or materials
Join us, won't you? Managed by the Avakot.org team, powered by Envoys like you.
Thank you
I tested this before you even mentioned it, and it really does work, but it's quite annoying.
it does leave the tent yeah
mine goes to the blacksmith and sleeps alot
This game needs more info.
What does Virtues even do???
I got zero explanation as a Druid im just spamming Spirit
virtues are getting a major rework next week
The devs are aware of the lack of info
Scott mentioned it last devstream
Huh???
Chat i just joined today.
Didnt knew i had access
So ofc im not aware of news
Adjustments are one thing, and those are totally fine.
It definitely seems like they need to bring Pablo in for a consult day just to get some ideas in on how to make a more cohesive kit for each of the Pacts. They really all feel like they have one distinctive ability and two others that buff the main one, or do basically nothing but provide a neat animation showcase. I'm a couple cases the Pacts have nothing at all and just exist as arm cosmetics and weapons platforms lmao
which ones are those pacts?
Also, in some zones outside im getting massive FPS drops.
Best settings???
(I run RX 9060XT 8GB + R7 5800x 32GB DDR4)
Orengall and Ode Tempest
May need to relog.
Orengall is just Tethren but worse, and Ode Tempest does basically nothing
when exploring new areas for the first time you might get some stuttering because the game is compiling shaders if that's what you mean 
You can go bowling and that's it
Oh i see, is there a way to compile massively?
no
It should tbh
it happens when you go to a new area for the first time. that's it
IS p13 out?
no
you'll be pinged in #soulframe-news when it does come out
updates don't happen on weekends tho
It's 3:07 PM on Saturday. DE's probaby watching Simpsons reruns like the rest of us.
I had a moment in my game with an enemy and felt like turning it into a gif
It is indeed but still better than resetting the cogah imo
live Avakot reaction at the bottom too. incredible
Since I was playing with sound off at the time, I didn't even notice it until I went to make the gif
I just tuned him out
why is it when I'm looking at thr journal, some random pair of eyes pops up and removes the text?
that's just the soot motes doing their thing
you can click on one to restore the text
Thanks
Honestly, I'm pretty lost about this game. I have so many questions, don't really understand the lore. Is there like, an intro guide somewhere? I don't want to spend the limited time I have scouring the forums (I have an infant so my free time is limited)
the lore is... currently something you do have to dig into a good bit to figure out
The cloack rune for short swords is really fun
Yeah the Motes like eating words.
Before they got replaced with Totems, they occupied the same role.
yes and no? kind of...
Theres avakot wiki
well, they were Totems but weaker
I never got them all but you got them by fully researching a location
Ok here's a question, I've got a bunch of armor in my inventory I want to put on, but it seems they don't appear when I'm in the nightfold. are they not compatible with my class or something?
you have to craft them 
you got the fragments to build them, gotta get enough fragments to craft them at tuvalkane
when you hover over the item in the inventory you'll see there's a little "fragmented" icon on the left side of the item name indicating it's a "fragment" and not a crafted item 
nothing pops up when i hover over them 🙁
best to interact with tuvalkane
you'll see whatever you need more fragments for, and what resources you may need to craft them
I can see an icon that looks like its broken pieces, I guess that means fragment. Thanks for the tip
well eventuall;y the packs will be free so everyone will have the same points if they want to do the quests and havent paid
for sure
that was 12 hours ago
in the item info segment on the left side of the inventory i mean
In the future.. Right
and correct 
Ok another question - I have a 'garren rood' in my inventory, I think its the way I can get another pact. Unclear to me how to do that, if that's correct
Any plans for excess fragments? You technically can craft a copy of a weapon and use blessed joinery but are there any potential other ruses? How does Warframe do it?
also gotta craft it
ah of course, it is a fragment
that is the recipe simply and need materials to craft
no info on anything about that atm
haven't playted warframe
in warframe you can just sell extra blueprints for credits. (drac equivalent)
A question about 'seeders' ... I thought I was picking up these 'seeders' from destroying 'squakers', so I'm confused that I'm supposed to place them on squakers. I guess I don't know what a squaker is?
warframe just lets you sell the extras for a pittance of credits, ppl joke about using harrow chassis blueprints as reserve funds (usually when it reaches the hundreds)
the seeders are a fragment aswell that you need to craft, and then you can place one on the metal pole
placing them on the broken squawkers will give you fragments for 2 different bird guide skins
that's all 
ok so I get the fragment from a squaker, make a full one, then put it back on a squaker?
yes
ok, cool. Thanks all for answering my beginner questions, I appreciate it
Other than buying from the shop with premium currency, almost everything in the game is recipes and you must craft them

Oh, also, should I bother crafting other main weapons - is it just a 'if you want to' kind of situation?
leveling weapons and pacts to 30 is a method to gain mastery, which adds to your envoy level. so even if you don't wanna keep em, level em and sell.
Why is there so many issues with Dungeon Entrances not registering?
I feel like they are timegated between when you can discover a new one
Yep! There's an intro to the Lore on the lore page of the wiki: https://wiki.avakot.org/Lore
hit or miss. had to relog and run straight at a few of them. don't have to clear it, just discover it.
what do the atrtunement colors mean ?
Pre-alpha growing pains. Just tooss it up as a bug report.
indicates the virtue the weapon gets bonus points of damage from
Ok here's a dumb question, what do the virtues actually control?
more points in grace in this case, means more damage to your weapon per point
you can use anything, with anything
Just had to relog because my entire control system locked up
couldn't attack at all
were you not just stuck in soulmode?
I spammed every single button multiple times that had any input
yeah i've experienced that. also only having control over mouse like i'm in a menu, but i can't escape it
are the dungeons auto-generated? I feel like I keep finding the underground thing, its similar but different
ye they're procedurally generated
thought so. how do I know if I've already 'conquered' one?
same tiles, different order
Yep! It's explained a bit on https://wiki.avakot.org/Dungeons:
different tilesets build different ways at least, and we got three. dermak, neath'uns, and the glades
there's not really "conquering a dungeon" atm in any way
just discovering them all marks them on your map, and that's the most that changes from discovering a dungeon
no way to 'save' once you are halfway through one right?
Ah, no, but you don't lose out on much
or anything even
it is a bit of a missunderstanding to think in terms of classic rpg classes
it is all equipable gear, from your pacts to talismans to weapons to armor
and the virtues are subject to change in the near future as well
so you aren't a rogue exactly
you just started with grace equipment, but that is all that choice was, starter equipment
what's a pull smite?
seen enemies bodies glow green/blue/red?
blue before he killed himself
It's explained on https://wiki.avakot.org/Smite if you need it:
that means you "procced" smite on that enemy, (exposed their soul), then you can use pull smite Q+M1 to pull on the soul to deal damage to the enemy, and if you have the pact upgrade, also heal yourself
ok makes sense. just got one i think, thank you
and if for example you happen to have an ability on cooldown, let's say blue (grace) ability, using pull smite on an enemy that glows blue, will skip the cooldown
is there any way to make magic more accurate? looking at a guy and it goes right off to the side to hit someone else.
autolock can tend to continue aiming at last person, block and aim at your new target to change it
when will the next update come ?
a build guide I was looking at for Tethrin recommends either Blitzel or "my best Courage bow"
Should I take the Starling I got from the Founders pack and attune it to Courage?
would hold off for now, games changing pretty dramatically next week
if you wanna play range Tethern go with Blitzel for now
gocha
Damn, this game is soo confusing
Discount Paragon
follow bird... get stuff... slay enemies... pretty much everything there is to do
however next few month everything will change so
"catch courier"
killed every enemy in designated area
nothing happens, quest still in process
And bird is in same place because of that.
i see you have encountered bug
ultra hardmode encounter, nothing to do than to run around and see if you can catch that courier
or restart
usually restart
Like, game?
if it is a faction tale you can just go to the nightfold and wait 30 sec and i think that will stop the tale and if it doesn't then yeah the game. Since this game is pre pre pre pre alpha that is usually the case when encountering those bugs
Going to camp won't end the tale, you'd need to move super far until a timer starts and wait til it ends. If you never get one then you might be bugged.
