3 star votives
Oh
Can I go there?
whats a votive? lol
faction tales
where can I access those
the island is not available atm no
Idk, wasn’t able to replicate it again
world trees
Is it the island on the upper left corner of the map?
mhm
yeah
nope
lmao
Does anyone know if quests/sparrows tales done around higher lvls will increase how much exp I get for my faction standing?
*watch the Warframe devstream at PAX East in an hour and a bit to maybe see something about mounts 👀 *
ty for ur response have a good day/night
both the star count and enemy level and if it ends in a dungeon affect the rep gained
highest amount possible at the moment from a single tale is 1450 or 2900 if it ends in a dungeon
how low is the drop chance on the seathorn?
Finally got to play last night!
Thank you @spare badge for the code your the best!
I put unter 2 hours in so far i love the gameplay the combat feels heavy and with purpose
ok so this might be the noobiest question going, but is there any videos/guides on what to do once youve completed the story? like how to gear, how to level and unlock new pacts? i have literally no idea what to do now, other than run round and murder stuff XD
How long was the story?
couple of hours maybe? and then i ran wrong and unlocked all the world trees to get rid of the fog of war, that took maybe another 30min - 1hr
I just got the quil
I didn't realize you had to destroy the lanterns, I thought they were pretty, so I left them
but I've done the stag and done two ancestor quests
so is seathorn better then The Alder from the founder pack?
less then 10 for now I believe
I did it pretty quick
technically 6?
8 that get recorded in the Journal, but there's also An Invitation and A Witch Withdrawn (then the 3 miniquests)
technically 10 and 3 miniquests
DE mentioned smaller Fables getting renamed to either 'Larks' or 'Yarns' soon, but hasn't happened yet so a lot of them get bundled under Fables
Deadwood, Lightning and Mistress are the only ones to have explicitly been named Miniquests which leaves 10 Fables total
so I could do everything is a single night if I wanted
and which gives you the person who can change your hairstyle?
I think you maybe could if you rushed yeah, just depends what pace you like to enjoy story and exploration at
Brewer of Hues
well my brain would be like 'if I do the quests first I can explore all I want later'
technically 6 because the intro cinematic and the tutorial part where you choose your starting gear are 2 of the 8
so 6 that feel like actual proper quests
It'd be funny if the secret island tree had bounties
It has the salesprout votive, but no others yet
does the game have a memory leak or something? my performance seems to decrease the longer I play
was getting a stable 120 and 2 hours later im down to like 105 with spikes down to like 85
do you guys think reforging Avecs is a good idea or maybe a uncommon bow with hailshot is better?
I've reforged mine, it was a fantastic choice
But it depends on a playstyle that you know you like
I like being a "true" marksman, and lining up the shots
its a great bow but im thinking maybe a 20% charge speed with hailshot is gonna be insane
Arrow Rain feels like cheating, or a necessary evil at least.. for me
its overpowered because you can have 100% rune uptime with it, but runes are changing next patch
It seems to have a slight one since P13 yeah, but fixed with a relog
This is true, I find the skill reward of Avex is prime design
Nail the headshot? (A moderately difficult thing to do) = Get big damage
right click on the file and try "Repair"
thing is, the avecs is insanely powerful in terms of raw damage compared to the other bows
Is there any way to know quickly which garden you planted your seed in for founders?
logging helped for like 20 mins and then it went down again lol
not that I know of 😮 ... i try to remember it
Yeah it's explained on the https://wiki.avakot.org/Eternium_Gardens page, you're looking for the yellow flower icon
the garden you planted in will have a lil icon in one of the corners
Oh thank you!!
how do you defog the map?
oh okay thanks 🙏
Is there a daily cap for earning standing?
Yep! You can see it on https://wiki.avakot.org/Standing:
thank you
I love that buried chest
is the game playable right now?
Yes, closed pre alpha tho
so whats the game like is it a mmo lots of group content and grinding or is it more of a singleplayer game that you can play multiplayer
definitely the latter, it does have plenty of grind but it's the enjoyable kind imo
Can the wolf walker ability just be a straight up wolf transformation not whatever it currently is
With mounts coming it just feels redundant
also remove "lots of content" from that 
not a lot of content yet
Open world rpg pretty much
Yeah this, the devs are not joking about pre alpha
i just wanna know is it gonna be a game lets assume its full finished like way down the road will it be a game thats just i play for a couple weeks max out bored or will it be a infinite grind to do something harder i guess like diablo where you eventually beat the story but there is a endless amount of scaling content
No idea
If you want any reference however vague it is then look towards warframe
We just know it aint an mmo or a soulslike
most likely both
im just hoping for something thatll replace wow lol for me atleast not in general
This probably wont be it then
Is this gonna be like a destiny game? Like with dungeon and raids
nnnnope
What would you guys compare it to?
been compared to elden ring, ghost of tsushima, witcher 3 in the past
Im assuming is isn’t gonna be a actually mmorpg
So far? Witcher 3 but with optional multiplayer
correct
It is an open world rpg
Oh kinda like fable then?
co op open world rpg at that
Kinda yeah
That might be fun for a little atleast something coming out
It has its quests and crafting, and is currently still at the beginning of development
It actually has crafting😳
Nvm lowkey might be a w game now
that's what the steam page says anyway
Subject to change in the future, from the latest devstream but we are still pretty far from that system being tackled
Not that those are exactly accurate tbf
I really wish there was a game like new world ngl
so it wont be a 2026 launch then im assuming
man soon™ they'll have to add "hammer" into the "forge your legend" sentence
fairly accurate in this case
Nooope
2028 maybe
Hard to say it will have any traditional launch tbh
Will likely just go like warframe and just keep being update without a "proper launch"
idk im on the border lmao it isnt sounding like the videos i watched on it but maybe they was painting the long term picture
are they wiping each person after each playtest or if i play now ill keep my char
Youtubers arent exactly on the business of precision and accuracy tbf
No more planned wipes
so best way is to become a founder right and i pretty much own the game
well... it'll be a free game anyway
Free to play btw
So if you just wait for the next stream you have permanent access
on the 21st of next month
anything worth being a founder for then
And all the founder stuff will be farmable later (least the gameplay stuff)
access to the gear that they give early and without the need to craft or grind for them
If you like the game and wanna throw money at them
- Arcs and moonsteel thread which alone make it worth it imo
arcs being the premium currency
and moonsteel thread being a transmog resource only available for said premium currency atm
before i purchase and dive in lol do yall think it could eventually be a infinite grindy style game or is this something you beat and dont return to
well it'll be live service
Much like warframe this is certainly gonna be an ongoing project
so definitely something you'll return to
Like literally same people
or keep playing*
yeah i know i just quit warframe prolly in like 2016 so im lost on the state oif that game i remember having fun on it tho
definitely worth returning to that game too btw 👀
wildly different experience to back then
lol idk about all that i think necro prime like came out and i had got it then quit playing
even if just for the story quests
or one of the primes
why wait?
||8CAF||||-FDB3-||||AC95||||-3D9F||
10 years huh, a long time
guys can you put multiple emails for better chances?
lmao
i guess....?
not the type of question you openly ask in the official discord of the game
so i can purchase one of the $30 founder packs right now get two friend codes and all 3 of us cna start playing today?
ty
yes
alright which class is bis so i buy the right pack lmfao
probable tho that even with 5 emails you wouldn't get invited before the next stream
They arent classes
mmmm i'd suggest just getting the one you like the look and/or sound of the most
but yeah there aren't classes really
hi guyss how do i completely uninstall soulframe?
thru control panel afaik 
so you just play as one of the 3 characters and what you do is up to you?
i heard uninstalling from apps will only remove 700mb
They are sorta starter gear loosely aligned with con(courage/red), dex(grace/blue), int(spirit/blue)
o.o
is it a game where you feel like you are the charachter playing? then il make one that lookjs like me if not il js make a cool looking charachtwer
Not even characters
not really. there's no different "characters". it's the same character, you just switch between ability sets (pacts)
oohh
You can kinda see them as ability sets?
^^
im really intrigued lol it was either this or mortal 2
i'd say yeah 
especially with low enough FoV it becomes very cinematic honestly
been playing at 40 myself 
not low FOV but yeah
that just looks like max FoV 👀
it is, only becausr i love the person who decided that 70 shouldnt be the max 
well yeah who in their right mind would pick 70 as the max
lmaoo why
isnt there a disatvantage
like i said, results in a very cinematic feel
is there multiplayer yet and if so how many people
im about to be coming as a group of 6 lol
3 per squad
not really any disadvantage to it either, i pay close attention to sounds and to my surroundings 
never had issues with it even
That means you have 2 squads worth, which is twice what everyone else hs
is there any way to travel faster? its been feeling like a walking simulator for some time
after completing The Waste Bear fable you unlock a limited form of fast traveling yes
fast traveling requires a resource, uses 1 each time you do, you get 1-3 of said resource and it has a 12h cooldown on pickups
you can also only fast travel to world trees and to your faction enclave
how do I do it? I've completed the waste bear already
you can pick up the ||wevetseeds from the sapling next to verminias spot in the nightfold||
after that just hold left click on a world tree
I see, thank you 🙏
Just gonna go ahead and the bad guy saying if you don't enjoy traversing the open world... then it's questionable if a person enjoys open world games
how many times are u gonna really enjoy traversing it
I enjoy it while I'm following the story but while I'm trying to get standing its just repetitive
and makes the standing grind more lengthy than I'd like
guys what is the q? it looks like a gust of wind
Racing games and FIFA, and trading card games are repetitive - It's a perspective thing perhaps
dw you'll realize the repetitiveness after a couple hundred hours 
Damn i really wish this game can be on old gen and new gen consoles... not like other games i know, they stop making support the old even when they are people still playing the games and more with the costs of components rising...
is the game f2p as much as warframe?
not 100%
maybe 80-90%
u cant earn premium currency for free, and there's gear temporarily behind a paywall
should be 100% like wf later on
Suspected scam content removed by bot.
another person hacked
welp normal thing...
But really wish this game dont stuck on New Gen consoles and support everyone equally...
when doees preludes 14 release?
Mid April
old gen console thing is....
said older console gen starts to be a decade old at this point.
as a whole they probably won't have support for too long either and it's another platform needing support taking increased effort to some degree probably idk how exactly it works
older gens gotta be let go at some point too ._.
Soulframe for PSX. 
ahyes
Here we go again with the long standing bug you can't find the last Ode in the last step of T3 and Sparrow stop guiding you to its location basically you lose all the progress for the tale no matter what !!!!
Fling it to #1438224825113120788 for posterity and (hopefully) a fix!
Guess the only work around i found is to just look at the map and not depend on the sparrow for the last one
Sparrow will bug sometimes
The birb, it do its best.
It do be that way
My mouse bird is a little goofy. So it makes sense.
Hm. I killed the Discharged Nimrod in Cogah about 20 times today, because I was hoping to get picktrix.
I got 0 runes from him. Not a single one.
Is there a bug or something?
Guess what brought me up here...
How often do they give a key to play - is it like wait a week and its guaranteed or just wait week after week?
Giant slapped like in the old days at skyrim
2000 codes each Wednesday
The Tower is a lie by the way xD
Oh cool - 
Funny how u got up there the easy way and i the hard way
Shame that, was expecting to see the mini boss just hovering there
Whats the hard way?
He got me here
I meant like before he breaks out
Hard way is with bromius rump thump and jumping bugs
I don´t know what that is and atthis piont I´m to afraid to ask
In a completely unrelated topic... is there a unstuck button?
Or fast travel for that matter?
U can jump up
open chat with T and type /unstuck
I´m in a prospn xD
Oh ur way down
I guess grey health bar means i´m not supposed to kill em yet?
means their armor level is higher then your damage level... or something like that
The game looks so good I can’t wait for it to release
I feel like ranged is a cakewalk, about to forge some melee weapons but staff is super cheesy...
staff is way underpowered, in my opinion. on higher level I do pretty much no damage at all with staff
Boy, do I have news for you
Lol
Yeah dmg is laking but you can cite them so easily and cc them and all, bow must be even easier
can I switch classes somewhere? or do I have to buy?
and can I farm real money currency ingame?
you switch by building and equipping a different pact.
well... prism sets your stats, pact the skills. armor and weapons just scale off of the prism thingy
some you get from story/missions. and some you can buy at the factions with your reputation
thx
I was today levels old, when I learned, that the enemies level keeps increasing while in Cogah. they just reached level 100 and the only way I am still able to play is with bow. As mage, even with my best gear I do ~40 damage with a full charged heavy attack.
with bow however, a charged shot to the head still does 400+ damage. regular shot, no smite
so balance definitely seems off to me
lel ok, yes it seems realy rough at many fronts but it will get there I hope
what are these alien text that pops up every so often from loots/interactions?
you need to collect knowledge about that location. the 3 pips above the name means, there are 3 you need to collect. they will translate the name.
I usually see 1-2 per location, but next time you're there there will be more
it's like a glowing cloud. or at least at night its glowing, during day sometimes hard to see
ahh so its a mechanic to have the map unlocked
i cant wait for this game to release on console, its a really cool game
btw whats this black cloud randomly around the ui
Do those motes pop up in random locations or are they fixed?
yeah. as far as I can tell, there is no reward for it yet, but yes.
Dust mote, you can pop them like bubblewrap and the good feeling is all you get.
I don't know, but I assume there is a bunch of locations where they can spawn
also, if you find more then one per location, go back to your hideout, before collecting the next one. I often didn't have it count if I didn't do that, but it always worked when I did.
what are these btw?
that's where your bird/rat respawns, when you die. it automatically picks the nearest
Where (if anywhere) is the best farm for Sappheline?
Hi can somebody please confirm if the fragment of this weapon drops from this T3 , because i've done over 100 of them since P13 and even that only 1 frag i got not sure was from this Tale ?
I just started playing in P13, and I got it. so... yeah, it does drop 😅
but late. I already had everything bought from the Alca Faction Shop, and are just grinding to get 5 of each blessing, before switching to the next one, and eventually it was just there to build, didn't even notice when it dropped.
i'm already Rank 4 on Alca faction and almost Rank 5 on Keith do i have to do Alica T3 to get it to drop or i can do it on any faction, i stopped doing everything and i'm only doing T3 tales and it Never drop for me !!!
according to info online it can drop from any T3 Faction Tale.
But since I am Alca, I can't tell you if that's still true
I have a quick question, so I am getting back into the game and are seeing people on youtube able to replay a mission where you choose your mother and can edit their character, I have an old soulframe account and never played this mission. Am I locked out basically from accessing it right now?
do you have this entry in your journal?
yes i have that
well, try the replay button there 🙂
otherwise, you can also edit your look at verminia
well, almost everything 😉
sweet thank you, its been a while since i played! a lot to catch up on
enjoy 🤗
how do I fast travel
clip your heel three times and reapet there is no place like home
or grow some seeds after you do later quests lol
Why no glider xD
Gliders would so cool lol
I´m the King of the world
Man this can't be right i'm tired of this spent a VERY LONG TIME just to get this weapon no fragments drop is this gucha gamee now or what eeven if it's gucha it can't have rating drop like this
Who cares you got the damn point and screw with me now i'm sooo freaking frustrated of this
Gacha games are whole nother level tbh
I found Soulframe to be fair especially in contrast to what abusive systems actually look like
The problem comes down to individuals hyperfixating on the end game and not enjoying the journey. In my opinion…
Do you understand what i'm even saying been trying to get frags to drop since day 1 of P13 for that weapn that's over month and it doesnt drop
That is certainly unfortunate, I’m sorry to hear this
Maybe not the world, but the Envoy is the rightful ruler of Midrath.
It's us or her, and I sure do want that armour 
clearly not only me struggling to get frags to this weapon what's the point putting a weapon in game and and make it even try it https://youtu.be/hh0vDCnPZys?si=yqiStjwFTxomGNSx
If you had fun watching the video, please consider subscribing for more Soulframe videos.
Rare items are indeed very rare
We just need to locate the family Glaive.
Nuh that's regarded RNG nothing should be this rare taking you over a month
Hello, is there a lot of co-op in the game?
Are there plans for clans? And clan-specific content?
I would not be against more weapon types, I’m sure it’s on the queue tbh, inevitable
The game is equally solo and co-op and can be played entirely in either style
Precklies say hello. It took me a month to get 1 fragment and 3 more preludes to finally get a spare fragment to drop.
There is the option for a lot of co-op, but you can also play the game solo, your choice! (Just avoid doing fables in co-op because bugs. Vlad will tell you about this 😄 )
Clans are planned for future, but no specifics yet
Co-op does make some boss encounters and game modes easier to deal with though
Yeah we've got this one coming, I guess a giant chakram is potentially a gateway into smaller glaives as well!
Soul Calibur flashbacks
My fave weapon tbh
Hula-Hoop’m to death
In past devstreams, DE did say yes there will be glaives.
Glaive intensifies
Are clans definitely planned? I love it when there's a lot of co-op in a game and it's easy to find someone to play with.
They are yeah! They've mentioned them 2 times total I think? Or maybe 3
Clan v Clan pvp 😍🤤
When asked about them, they said yes.
Clan Regatta tournaments, now that could be fun 
Go watch the latest devstream. PvP is not currently on the table.
That really is unfortunate it only took me a day max to get that weapon.
Keyword currently?
What is known about resetting progress?
Hopefully neverly 🤣
Everything known about it is on here if you need it! https://wiki.avakot.org/Account_Resets (the important thing is that they do not plan any more forced resets)
I love PvP, make it optional so those who want to.. can.. and those who don’t want to.. don’t have to.
"on the table = being discussed" It's possible for something to be "on the table" and discarded because it was discusssed and found a bad idea.
That's what i'm saying it's freaking bugged or they changed the source drop without updating the info in the wiki
True im a more pve guy then pvp tbf lol.
Well idk… seems like it would definitely solve the whole “this game is too easy” people for sure
I fail to see why optional pvp for those who want to is a “bad idea”
Most of us don't want PVP. Only a small vocal group wants it.
But thats just me
I mean, we had this same discussion the other day but unless it's outsourced to a separate team, there's unfortunately no such thing as optional when trying to implement a significant feature into a game that does not have it. All the players who want more actual Soulframe would have no way to avoid the fact that development time is taken away from the actual game
To take this PvE game and put PvP into it would involve immense development work on new interactions and mechanics for each arcanic and rune, taking away numerous hours from development of the main game (or requiring DE to outsource to a separate team entirely). Either that, or it'd just have to not have pacts and runes which seems a bit pointless. I'm very glad DE don't want to take time away from the game to do PvP, at least for a long while
So cater to that group without dragging the others? Why does it hurt them?
Now if it were outsourced, like Warframe's recent 'The Teacher' tutorial quest, that could potentially be something they look at years down the line? But with how Conclave went, and with how focused Soulframe is on an Envoy vs Ode narrative experience, I can't see them wanting to 🤷♂️
I mean maybe we just have different visions in mind that you are perceiving it will somehow take a lot of resource to create
I'm not too sure what you mean here - how would PvP existing make fighting the actual Ode more tough/interesting? We need tougher and smarter PvE enemies for sure
People wanting DE ot put time and effort into a game mode that will end up mostly abandoned, just like how Warframe's PVP is.
Were you thinking just a quick friendly sparring mode without any pacts or runes? Like the warframe dojo one, vs an actual mode with its own UI, voicelines, progression etc?
If so then yeah that would take much less long I agree
So in other games a duel mode exists where you create a temporary challenge, a countdown timer starts (get ready) and combat is enabled until one player reaches 0 hp.
After which they are restored to full hp.
Simple as. Like, I’ve coded in UE and Unity, a lot (almost all actually) of the code they need is already present in game.
I have actually specifically said that every time this came up.. yes.
I can throw either way, if there is pvp I wouldnt touch it, but there is a good bit of people who prefer pve over pvp, thats why games like cod exist for people who love pvp, idk either way i dont care what happens later down the line, just that I wont ever touch pvp probably.
That's fair, I thought you meant an actual gamemode, but as a quick spar yeah it wouldn't take any strenuous dev resource
Interestingly whilst I wouldn't touch an actual PvP mode, I would probably use a mini dueling feature to pass time whilst waiting for our 3rd party member to get to the dungeon entrance hahaha
Eventually.. I wouldnt be against it but a duel mode for sure is “needed” and that’s just my opinion
It gives a subset of the community an outlet without infringing on pve lovers
Well, exactly
Sun & Moon from Warframe should be in Soulframe
Why does it use the processor so poorly? Does anyone know how to fix it?
It would need a second sun.
Sonsun & Moon
Hey everyone, finally getting to try soulframe for the first time today and I'm having pretty hard choice paralysis picking a pact, I just want to know is it possible later in the game to use different weapon classes across pacts (i.e. having a sword as grace or a bow as spirit) or in general do you get to mix stuff up later on?
Yep! You can obtain, and mix, every single item in the game. Don't worry at all about commitment
Oscelda
(You will need to purchase some inventory slots though if you want to own everything at one time)
Thank you so much, massive sigh of relief lol
Yes, the more you unlock, the more variety of builds you get.
In terms of things to actually worry about / be aware of, there are really only three rules in soulframe right now
- never sell juniper
- never sell an omen pact (since DE removed the way to reobtain them in P13)
- never spend arcs on rushing crafts unless you very specifically want to spend money on the temporary rush of a craft over the permanent boost of an inventory slot
I think those are the only mistakes you can make 
Alright, easy enough to remember, third one is definitely something I've regretted doing with plat in warframe 🥲
Unless you plan on donateing for arcs or getting the founders packs, you'll want to use your arcs for a few pact slots, and then weapons slots.
Yeah I'm looking at potentially getting a founders pack, I wanted to take tonight and tomorrow to try out the game and see if it's my taste before I commit to it
So if I can get every single item, when picking a pact is it the magick i should be mostly concerned about? Or are those obtainable in some way aswell?
Yeah. Founders aren't going anywhere soon. DE said they'll give a 30 days heads up before founders goes away. So take your time and get familiair with the game. See if it's something you really want to toss money at.
Oscelda Juniper or Avex bow with Torrent
Very much not regret with those choices
Oscelda is usually the best starter pact, as it has good crowd control and healing. You can farm up faction rep and get the other pacts and starter weapons.
Ah rapiers confirmed still to be long blades (I missed this when I first watched the stream)
Juniper is also the best
there's now 3 subtypes in long blades 
Alright, thank you!
Oooh Navalha with Sapph joinery
But! Grace req
Which makes it cool
Yesss!! Big new precedent 😍 means we could even see bows with courage reqs and things like that!
Tying it to a moveset is at least somewhat better than locking away a whole weapon type
Courage bows could be crossbows
Avex already requires... 16? Which is enough to deny a full grace prism.. for example
Spirit flyblade that casts a lightning spell on hit, like a rune marble
It does yeah, still the 14 grace though and gotta hit both - now that we have a long blade which doesn't require the 'main virtue' for that weapon class, it means we could see that happen more often
Verus' Assassin is the only way currently, I think... or at least is optimal
Dewelion:
Because previously they laid it out like this
Weapon Attunement - Entire weapon categories are standardised to align with a Virtue!!
Courage:
Large melee weapons including:
- Swords
- Greatswords
- Polearms
Grace:
Small melee weapons including:
- Daggers
- Splitswords
- Flyblades
(They didn't mention bows but as we now know they are Grace)Spirit:
- Magick weapons
The majority of weapons have split scaling to align with multiple attunements
Would imagine Dewelion was kinda the prototype for the move set in a way
Eventually a weapon for every prism would be kinda cool... in terms of reqs and players being prompted to move stats around for different playstyles
Might even get the Rapier moves in p14, maybe
You know what I had no idea Dewelion didn't require any courage at all 😂 that's crazy was it like that ever since P13?!
It requires Grace!
Of all the things!
Also it broke and doesn't have a scaling cap, making it the best long blade in the game atm
Grace winning yet again
In p13
It must have been a pretty last minute decision for them if they had them laid out in categories before, I think it's great to see more options though, the requirement restriction was the worst part of the rework (I actually like prisms because they come with lore
)
It's Grace's world... the other two virtues just pay rent
Think it's fine to have outliers, especially if they have diff move sets
A rapier is def bot a Courage weapon, even if it is a long blade
Yeah completely agreed! I still hope we see more different requirements even in the same moveset as well, I like the idea that every build will have at least one option for every weapon type (ie a courage staff and a grace staff, etc)
🙁 entire old house of cluttered grandparents i live on a couch on ceiling collapse, no power.. see ya'll around the next update
Wishing you a speedy return to normalcy @modest crater
Would say yes, but: make the off virtue ones weaker, as they're a bit more of an off colour option.
If you want the BEST greatsword, use Courage, but here's an okay greatsword for Grace if you wanna do that.
I am perhaps a little too excited for the rapier.
Which means not excited enough for the Sword and Board
But this one has unique moves!
NEW MOVESET sword and board
You act like that's a good thing 😭 finally shields won't be as neglected as they have been
Consider my interest piqued.
Fair point. I think sword & board would get more attention if its skill tree focus was...well. Blocking.
Look at the animation stance when blocking. Sword had back and the tip pointed in front of the player. A counter stance for after deflecting an attack. Most SnS have the sword down and back in a sturdier blocking stance.
gossamer quartz is really going to be the reason i stop playing this game
A much less passive stance. Alright, this might be fun.
The attacks seemed a bit different too, hard to tell without a side by side
run through dungeons and open rare chests. can also buy em when avakot sells em.
gonna have to swap greatswords and shields soon huh
i love getting one per dungeon run when i need 50
I been wondering what graphic settings should i be running with a gtx 1660
You should get a stable 60 fps at medium in 1080p
Just tweak with the settings a bit, the game is surprisingly well optimized for a pre-alpha
Yeah and i used fsr so i get 80
Yeah it is
When i run low settings i get 200 fps
I was in shock without any upscaling or anything
when do i unlock crafting, im just picking up alot of materials i come across but im still early game and no npc to sell me items either
The way to unlock it is explained on https://wiki.avakot.org/Crafting along with subfeatures like tuvalkane bonding, joineries/reforging, etc 😄 but if you don't want spoilers or to rush straight to it, dw it's something you'll come across whilst exploring the world
is it through questing or ill have to find it?
a bit of both - you can find it in the world at any point, but also once you've quested to a certain point (I think it's just after An Invitation), a note will appear in a convenient spot that will guide you too
are there any known quick ways to get river pearls to craft with?
Walking along rivers
I thought so, I must be unlucky then or maybe I'm not looking hard enough
I think I’m just committed more than most people
Like if I tell myself to farm river pearls, I walk the entirety of several rivers across the map
From what I hear… from others it sounds like they do the equivalent of “dad” looking for something and says he cant find it
it sounds like I'll be walking the lengths of several rivers then
😄
shows up at same time if exploring but after the first quest, had them both there just did the crafting one first but I also walked passed the area linked to it before doing it.
are we gonna have mounts finally?
They said it was in the works for the Tennocon showcase iirc
probably in p15 if we’re lucky or p16
Also getting Momma Envoy lore, Nightling lore and, in case y'all didn't see it, it def looked like ||momma has become one of the ancestors; she is ghost, while we are alive||
Welp I bought the founder thing and handed out 10 copies so add 11 players to the player base
Do I get a cool discord tag 👀
Not yet.
I believe discord tags will eventually be a thing for founders. For now, you can go stealth like me, or be like those who put "[founder]" or similar in their server names.
I was always confused by that, thanks for the clarification
Can anyone explain to me how a Moras Hand pact player is supposed to take advantage of the 'Hungry Flame' Passive? I feel like there aren't many sources of fire damage to receive
The '2' ability counts as being on fire
Max Passive - Press 2
Ahhhh, okay thank you!
What’s the most underplayed build so I can make it bis 😂 I’m going tank atm
Underplayed, great question
All in one build?
Sirin, and Gathannan... I guess?
Or, actually Ode Tempest kinda lack-luster at the moment... because of comparison to Oscelda. It's great... but if you use it you might see why some players feel like it's missing something
Tempest with a pair of starter weapons and armor you don't have the stats for.
Underplayed doesn't mean beginner weapons to me... it just means a majority of players don't choose it regardless of strength
Imo Gathannan fits that desc
To me, it means "nobody's using this cause it sucks".
Underplayed has a set meaning - The rest is either implied, or chosen to be assumed
Seathorn because I don't have it :D
A fair take lmao
personally haven't tried shields yet nor do I use Tempest or Sirin often
😂 I’m just meaning when you do group play what do you never ever see people playing like is sword and shield non existent right now
dont see spears often
I run sword and shield on oscelda, sword and shield might be a bit rarer now because there are only two weapons for that one
ive seen people run durglint shields somewhat often
Spears are pretty good but I don't see them often either yeah
shortblades are a rare sight compared to how many shortblade weapons there are in both main and sidearm
Polearms are kinda clunky.
prob dont see em as often since the ones worth running are sidearms
(With a grain of salt here) - The two most major camps are Tetherin + Purity + Treefell and Oscelda w/ Avex or Juniper w/ Alca's Breath or Torrent
Seathorn everyone says doesn't actually exist and the devs are lying (I have it - very nice)
So if by underplayed you mean, not considered strong (but not rusted copper sword beginner stuff) then... Ode Tempest and Gathannan
Yeah do need some time to get used to them, but throwing them is really nice
Archer osceldas being that common?
Yeah Seathorn drops seem rather low. 1 frag after 20 or so T3s in my experience
In current end game content because of heals and CC moveset
Oscelda and Tethren are the best since they keep you alive and help you deal significant single target dmg
Yeah, some way of health regain that isnt potions is really nice in cogah
Oscelda has the monopoly on the healies
Definitely has especially with the last prelude for spirit boosting cooldowns even more
Tethrens heal on kill is real good if you arent getting hit constantly. There is also sympathy.
If Oscelda is standing in water they don't have cooldowns
Rood 1 is also a life leach, but in P13 it felt inconsistant when I tried using it.
was solid in P10 tho.
Oscelda in a puddle ascends to godhood pretty much
Unlimited hospital lettuce
I main oscelda with shield at the moment, solo cogah is pretty chill
Does petrification still not work in multi?
I've never had a problem with it
If you arent a host petrification tended to instantly break, bit of a bug
I've still not encountered problems like that
Do MP enough as client and law of averages says you eventually will.
Sometimes if fails to work solo.
Is Soulframe officially released yet?
Pre-Alpha, and no... depending on the word "official"
😂 😂 Aight, that's all I needed to know.
nope still closed
they should make soulframe look worse so people's expectations lower
who needs shaders anyways?
No. Guestimation based on DE wanting the game to be a huge expansive ARPG and after a couple of years, we've still just got a hadful of fables and the tutorial island isn't fully fleshed out yet.
force low graphics for everyone in p14 
People asking if SF is gonna run DLSS knowing full-well 90% of them won't be able to run it without lag or crashing
So the founder currency I got is just used to pretty much get a few classes and weapons early without having to grind em out?
Slots and future fashion is my advice
Everything is grinable except Paragon sword
Imo, if you do decide to buy weapons from the store, buy the 3* ones
And take your pick of Seathorn, Purity, or Avex (Going by community sentiment)
Weapon slots yes, followed by pact slots, then loadout slots
Seathorn and gathanan seem to be hard to get generally, those aren't for the impatient.
Gathannan is somehwat hard to obtain, but also is not liked or used by most players
Seathorn is pretty nice, apparently though no one has it
Seathorn is just stuck in a massive lootpool
And quests take longer than single bosses
No decided to randomly buy seathorn and siren to start the game as a stealth mage is this build gonna be viable at all 😂
DLSS5 soulframe
You’ll get by
Any combo can work as long as you are skilled enough for it
Is there a better seathorn build I should be doing
So you have 3 main stats - Courage/Grace/Spirit.
As long as your gear matches your highest stat(s) your good
Everything else is mix and match as you like
You’ll see the virtue pips (C/G/S) on every gear item in different amounts
need help lol. what do we do with these ?
@twilit escarp I dm ya if you could help it would be sick but if you just started also no worries
Might be squadding up with a friend soon but send inv.. I can help for a bit maybe?
IGN: Sighduq
I gotta get off for the night I just wanted to see if you could help me get a build based off this weapon that’s pretty good
Ah ok
If you can dm me a recommendation I’d appreciate it I’m brand new so learning but I’m also a min max guy on every game 😂 and I feel like siren aint it
That's the best way to play the game, level everything you find and don't look for anything specific. If you'd go out of your way to only target farm specific things early on, you'd leave those things behind after fully leveling them anyways, to level the next thing. Minmaxing can only happen once you found everything
I found it best to level everything as you come across it
Weapon maxed? Swap out
Pact maxed? Swap out
Down time when lvling pacts and weapons is wasted progress time.
Oscelda is a good starter pact as the healing allows for more mistakes to be made while you are learning the game. Teth is like a hammer that works well, syrin has a bit of a harder start
so even if you switch to another long blade, the first long blade should be lvld to 30 before that?
Weapons keep levels unless you sell them
question how much has change for the "Dewelion Great Sword" to drop ?
its a longsword technically, but it has approximately 2% chance from vella at least. it also drops from kearnhold with and unknown chance and from collector with equal chance to all the rest of its drops
Thx no wonder i can't get the drop for months
if i alt f4 here... could i come later and pick one?
i gotta do some calculations fr
gotta choose one between spirit or courage
Cant say what happens if you f4 mid decision there really, someone would have to have done it before to know that.
Pretty sure you can replay tales to change the bonus though
dude
this tale is so damn long though
eh whatevs, im goin courage. i got spirit off the wolf
so this one can be courage
Not hopeful on this one, but is there a way to get a totem back if we accidently sell it? Got rid of one of my gold squirrel totems for magic and I'm feeling like its back to hunting them down to get it back 
That tells me everything I need to know. I am off to the forest
No shortcuts for totems and runes yeahh
Haha no worries. I was in the middle of upgrading and releasing and got a bit click happy. Lesson learnt
can replay to chanfe
sucks. theres been requests for like 'are you really sure' when its something upgraded or runes. ive let a couple good things go as well
I really just wasnt paying attention which fully my bad. Thankfully running around they took pity on me and I managed to get a replacement. A lock feature would be primo
i think its not +1:+1 cuz of my bromius build it makes a difference on the extreme virtues and hybrid but not middle ground. breain not working right now so cant properly remember to explain.
perhaps a new project lol
good of u to own it. perhaps why rng gods kind to u lol . lock feature good idea
guys when was last key?
Hi i replayed a fable, ( which i actually don't recall playing before as my onboarding experience was with mother long ago) anyways i don't want to change anything in my current look am i cooked , neither change my original pack?
Don't worry you're fine! It's just a replay, your choice was made back in your original experience whether that was rise envoy or the old UI on the shoreline
cant change your starting class choice
what u can change by replaying fable is the choice during waste bear and shewolf snared that affects virtue
There is a way to increase my capacity (weapons, pact, panoply) ??
nope
and I think there isnt any way to get the paid currency for free (because it is paid)
you get 100 for free when you make a new account
this gets you enough slots to level up many pacts and a few weapons but I keep selling off the weapons i dont need once i hit 30 with them
ok thx
not yet
eventually gonna be a tradeable currency
just like platinum in warframe
Guys, what are the minimum and recommended system requirements for the game?
Yes, I already saw it, but I don't really believe it. The graphics in the video look very good, but the requirements... at least Windows 7 and an I5 750 processor.
tbf yeah the requirements on the website are just placeholder copypaste from Warframes requirements from years ago but still
DE are Wazzards at optimization
of course you're not gonna be running on high or even medium graphics with a proper potato but you know

GPU2: GIGABYTE GTX 1060
RAM: 32 GB DDR5

its gonna run but won’t be pretty
remember, warframe can run on androids and iphones 
Is it worth playing with a friend? Is it worth the time?
slightly more complicated question maybe 
do note the game's in pre-alpha still, not a whole lot of content, story quests can cause prog stops if done in multiplayer, bugs as a whole especially in multiplayer are still plentiful
Well, that's understandable, it's still pre-alpha, but overall, is the game worth it?
i and a lot of others do find it fun yes
as for if it's worth it, i feel like that's a question you're gonna have to answer yourself by playing 
nerd reactions are unnecessary like always but have fun i guess if you do decide to play 
I'm just getting this image of them like an awkward school bully asking for help with their homework
and when you do help they walk away like "thanks, nerd"

lol my light source buggin
they like doing that yeah
fire
not that i've ever seen that happen myself ._.
wagiii is yet to experience the 4th dimension lamp
same
lmao fire
can multiple vadagar bears spawn in one night cycle?
randomly in the world? No, through votives? Yes
doesn’t have to be night time for votives either
okay that's great thanks
hi guys, I couldn't find any information on this and since I am not familiars myself - will those preludes last forever so we can continue testing or do they close at some point?
As far as we know, it will eventually just open up to public
continues in 1 form or another to release
Also, when you're accepted into preludes, you're accepted into the next stage as well.
"Hey guys, how's it going?
I have a question, i received a Soulframe access code via steam drop about 5 days ago, but i can't redeem it now, does anyone know if these codes have a short expiration period?
and if it’s not an expiration issue, what’s the best way to resolve this?
Codes shouldn't expire until used, best of my knowledge.
it should have been auto applied to your account, in the management tab does it say “Access Enabled”
I didn't use the code, but somehow it got activated on my account. Thanks, guys!
yeah if its the first code you get via twitch drop it automagically applies it to your account
They never say that on stream
I didn't know that good thing I used my main account, haha
yeah its odd, but its something ive seen the mods say in similar situations
unbearable playing todaytits so slow its horrible been playing for 2 months never had this bad
Not liking these drop chances...
If it helps, the organ does determin what armor piece drops
HELP! THE ODE MINIATURISED ME!
Honey, I shrunk the Envoy!
😭
Why is Lady Deora part of the Silent Rose, the Grace faction, when her armour (and polearm) scales with Courage and Spirit, is she stupid?
because it's melee oriented
Maybe this is why she was so easy as a boss?
Yeah, but she would have kicked our arse if she allocated her stats better!

yes
Deora doesn't do meta; she's playing soulframe purely for the vibes
The armor being Courage and Spirit makes sense but I wouldn't mind Rook becoming Courage/Grace as there's no polearm for that combo yet
And it'd make sense for the Grace Enclave weapon
Because they made the factions over a year ago and the virtue changes were just over a month ago?
Also “no polearm with that combo” there’s only 4 in the game period right now
hey all, which channel would be the best to ask for some answers? I downloaded the launcher, launch the launcher (xD) that I downloaded, a window pops and nothing else happens...
With the virtue rework they did too much at once, including forcing a bunch of weapons to be “designated” virtue requirements, like how flyblades and shortswords are grace and wrist casters are spirit, meaning there’s no sidearms for courage outside of an outlier that they made a problem they made for thenselves with this, Thrice Spurn, the Wyld Tethren flyblades
there should be a file explorer window in the background that pops up. it's there for you to select the installation location for the game
this windows pops out for 1s and nothing else...
oooh you meant launching the .msi file i see 👀
mmm... try right clicking the .msi file and "Repair" it
Thanks
Also, wanted to ask if anyone knows if Orengall quest can be done in multiplayer? I know it cannot be started, at least me and my gf couldn’t done it in her world, but does the quest progress? She’s in the in between of freeing Orengall and waiting for her to make an appearance
should be able to however that's probably the most progression stop bug prone quest in the game atm so i would suggest doing it solo
All quest should be able to be started and completed in MP (save the very first one "Rise, Envoy!"), in theory, in practice there are plenty of bugs.
Do note that the world state, and quest availability is based on the host world state.
hey i have a low-end pc and im thinking of upgrade. id like to know what you're using and whats ur recommendations for me. im currently on a rtx 3050 8gb and it's taking 100% of it, also on a 16gb ram dd5. it's taking nearly 4gb.
neither of those things are unusual i'll just say that 
like in general for gaming it is the norm that a gpu would be running at 100%
I use a rx 5700 xt at maximum graphics (though at 720p), no problem here, make of that what you will.
I don't think more ram is going to help you, unless you use a lot on background stuff.
more ram is not gonna help if we're talking about just playing soulframe no
faster ram? also no
yeah I am on an rtx3050 with a 43 inch screen max graphics and mine is fine.
for recommendations... all we'd really need to know is budget and what your goals or expectations would be for performance and graphics settings (as in whether you're wanting to run on low/medium/high graphics)
it worked, thanks 🙂
i should be more specific on my questions. so, i can run the game, but often at 60-ish fps. ideally i'd like to run at least at consistent 100fps on max (optimized) graphics. i dont have a budget for that, the thing is that im running on a 1080p so it shouldn't huge setup i guess.
so are you asking about what to change graphics wise to achieve said 100fps or?
because rtx3050, atleast 100fps and "max (optimized) graphics" don't really go hand in hand 
no, im more like asking if you recommend me a 'better' setup. cuz what im thinking is that my setup isnt good enough to run the game properly. it feels laggy and stuff as if it was on a 60hz monitor.
obs my rtx 3050 is 8gb vram
first time exploring the map will be slightly stuttery because it's loading shaders for the first time.
so if it's about upgrading the actual physical components, all you'd need to upgrade is the gpu, which is what i mentioned we'd really just need to know your budget for
yea but it's weird cuz u said you get 100fps on the same gpu so now im confused. i dont have a specific budget. im coonsidering a rtx 5070 12gb.
no one said they were getting 100fps on the same gpu 
Is it bugged, or do I need to do something else on the map first?
Need something else, the birb should lead you to the objectives.
The bird brought me here.
After interacting with that once it should lead you to the stuff to unlock it, if it doesn't search around for broken trees.
(or might want to consider relogging, not sure how feasible is to find them on your own)
Thanks, I'll try
Does anyone know if there are inventory limits on these items? It seems like there is, but it does not warn you.
50
does anyone know if wyld sirin only fights with a bow or when its close combat is the bow used as a weapon to fight with? it would be really cool to have them pull an arrow and stab someone who is close range
Wyld sirin is just a pact (the arm that gives you 3 abilities and 2 passives). Your weapon and your sidearm are separate pieces of equipment - you can use bows, greatswords, polearms, staffs, whatever you like
oh man i can tell you would've loved the old days of proper bow melee fighting...
i dont know if its only me but the game feels already very warframe like in terms of weapons, already too many weapons without much or any difference in their playstyle, combined with very slow leveling of the said weapons, i dont think this progression style is suitable for a long term "slow paced" game
hopefully this changes in a good way

Can't be correct. I had 55 of one.
Earnin them in coop bypasses it, a bug
I don't think it makes sense to say the weapons in wf don't have many differences in that category
so many different weapons have so many different styles and gimmicks
with the help of weapon mods and after so many years of investments on to new weapons
i worded it badly but SF feels like early-mid WF
Is there a cap on self healing? I have noticed when I get injured sometimes there is a whited out area on my health, that I can self heal with leech attacks, but never beyond that.
that's the melee health regain mechanic
That
so basically when that area is there, that's the amount of damage you just took from the last damage instance, that you can regain by landing melee attacks
it's a "limited health leech" of sorts
That's the devil, how does it function? Because it never worked prior to me using my 20% health regain deer spirit on my weapon, is that right?
it's always active as long as you're fighting with a melee weapon
bow, magick and thrown weapons (flyblades) don't have it
So the deer spirit does nothing, or makes it faster?
I see how it could feel that way too ngl
it makes you heal more health per hit
yeah you get a 20% boost to life gained from hits when you have that whited out area active there
But there is a limit on how much self healing can be pulled?
the limit is where the whited out area ends
So effectively, thie spirit is sort of pointless as long as you land your hits, the ultimate result is the same?
yes and no
Or does this give me 20% more health returned in TOTAL, vs 20% faster health returned of the set amount?
If you follow my question there
I'm not sure if anyone's done the math on that yet
at least not that I've seen so far!
Because I am in a spot where I can easily test this, if otherwise.
so lets say you have the whited out area active there, (for this explanations purpose i'll use simplified fake numbers), you deal 100 damage to the enemy and lets say you'd normally heal 25 health per hit with that 100 damage dealt, that totem increases that number by 20%, to 30 health per hit
If it's 20% more in total, it is MUCH better than just 20% faster of that set amount, assuming relative skill.
Yeah that'd be so awesome! Like if a regain hit normally gave you 5%, does this totem mean you get:
-
6%
-
or 25%
I'd have to assume it's the former but it'd be nice to know for certain lol
i doubt it'd be the 2nd option ngl
Oh wait nice it's been tested?
Same but just looking to confirm either way
If you can still get the final result, then it is more of a crutch than a benefit.
no i made that up 
that's just how i'd expect it to work
Ok, so, here is my thoughts.
hahaha yea same I agree it's most likely
i don't do testing 
Let's say we have 100 health.
We are hit for 50 health.
First question:
Does the default health leech effect allow me to return that 50 Health via landing those melee hits, or a lower amount?
Just to iron this out, before I begin my own testing.
you get to heal the amount of health you lost from the last damage instance
So yes. Alright, so to continue this line of thought:
getting hit again will reset that amount to that damage instance instead
Let's say we have 100 health.
We are hit for 50 health.
I hit back for 50 health, it takes let's say, two hits. 25 damage for 25 health.
As we can observe it takes around that on average anyway, usually 2-3 hits to restore health lost on average enemies.
Let's say I am using this rabbit that gives me 20% more health returned on the regain hits.
I am now at 50% health in this hypothetical, missing 50 health points.
Two possibilities.
Hypothetical 1:
It would allow me to get 20% more TOTAL health per hit.
Meaning, if I am hitting for 25 damage, to restore 25 health, it gives me 20% more of that 25. (6.25) more health a bit, but only to the total of my half missing health. Meaning, I am healing 31.25 health per hit instead of 25.
In our scenario, that is still only 2-3 hits to get the exact same result as the previous. You would need two of those souls on the weapon for it to ever even have any point. Making it stupid.
OR:
Hypothetical 2:
It is giving me 20% more health to be restored on the hits.
Meaning, If I have lost 50 health, I can restore beyond that 50. (This is only good in a situation where I have previously lost health, but still better than the previous arrangement.)
Pushing that limit up.
For example, I have 120 total health, I have lost 50, I can now gain back 20% more health in total than I could before, so I can gain 120% of that 50hp
Meaning I could gain up to 60 health back instead of 50.
That would make it useful, and not a crutch ability.
ugh, was farming for the last piece of the arbearer chest piece only for it to bug out and just not be in my inventory
what a text wall lol
literally takes a whole page lmao
They just explained it up there
It is the only way to explain the scenario.
formatting moment
A flat wall of text is painful to read, spacing is less eye burning.
the life-return %, increases when i do "what" hits?
Melee
thx U
The way it almost looks like, is it might be totally pointless.
As long as you are not intentionally using the worst weapon
TLDR:
Does the rabbit let you gain more health in total, or just speed up the rate that you already get it,
because if it is the second, it is the single most useless thing I can imagine,.
A useful crutch if you struggle with timing, I suppose.
Wait, I will simply test it.
DUCK has 1 in 6 change of smite +++ SQUIRELL has 1 in 13 change smite = what is end result? the smallest value or some mathematical formula?
1 in 6 is 16 percent, give or take
1 in 13 being a little over twice less as likely to happen
It depends how they stack, perhaps.
Weapon Smite = %A
Squirrel Smite = %B
Rabbit Smite = %C
Damage = Base Instance - Triggering a chance of %A, B and C
How are they applied, and how are they stacked?
This info matters when deciding the result.
Sarah said the 1 in 6 is not working properly as of right now from what i remember
So the game is beautiful but like what am I supposed to be doing lol 😂
grinding ofc
Adventuring, saving Alca from Beyond Petroleum
I’m just like do I do the main quest do I explore am I supposed to do anything in a specific order
there are like 8 quests
Oh so does those then go grind
after you done with them do whatever you want to, exploration, saving animals, getting all the stuff
Grind before those quests, then do them, then grind after
all weapons scale at 30max?
Yes
whats the best RUNE for short blade (sidearm)?
Flitsmoke
Only if you can guarantee chaining smite procs, but most of the time it lasts as long as the battle
by far the most boring one too tho 
no duh
i get half back after killing
Well I say this because that might not be the case forever
so as long as i kill im full on the smite energy
good night envoys, zzz 👋
So you only sometimes find a boss in the Dermak undercity then=
no
if u mean hewyl/vella they have their own dungeon
Vella is in Undercity
thats what he asked
is the island tree counted towards the reward you get do anyone know?
I sometimes found a big woman with a sword in Dermak undercity, sometimes not, in the same place.
Also, what on earth is causing my audio to work in reverse, that
is definitely a new bug. I am hearing things infront of me, behind me,
That is funny though
might be vella, remember bosses have 30min cooldown, so if you go there before 30min cooldown you wont have a boss there
This was a 16hr difference.
Alo is there anyway to stop my character randomly turning around and blocking in the wrong direction?
Or anyway to stop my character randomly fondling his bird after killing an oil tower or so, causing us to just die instantly to any enemies nearby?
Fun fact, if you use the bear pact vine ability, and use it when people are on a plane higher than you, you can pull people underground.
How long does the cogah last?
until you die, run away from a Agari fight or relog
Longsword feels like it might just be a stronger version of the greatsword, hrm
Longsword getting so much more melee focused capacity, and the trade off being that greatswords get more...wait for it...throwing potential, is kind of unbelievably bad IMO, holy moly.
Oh, Longswords get more parry, and consective strike attacks, so more offensive and defensive ability vs, greatswords getting a sprint stagger is questionable, huh.
Is Longsword just a lot more loved by the devs than Greatsword right now, we reckon?
more like... longswords have been in the game since the start, and greatswords since P12
don't forget about the sprinting heavy attack on the greatswords tho, lot more useful than the light one
I like heavy attack builds on GS
Also ye that sprint attack can stun lock any enemy/boss
Definitely true,
Seems like the greatswords only benefit over the two so far is that it really can be used for a somewhat buggy gimick stunlock.
Hopefully it gets revisited though, for sure.
It feels like sprint attacks are very unreliable, as your character just locks on and decides to do a sliding regular attack most of the time, as well, due to the game design.
Though, for fun and just swinging it around, really really funs tuff.
Doesn't mattter, I'd heavy attack
Ironically, you would lose if you were doing it against a longsword user for no real reason.
Also, I keep seeing people that Wyld Tethren has better self healing than the bear pact, but I really do not know what that is based on.
where is my friend codes at after i bought founders pack
Go to your account management, far right side.
thank you good sir
Sup, i'm thinking of getting the game in the founders pack, does anyone ever tried to play it on linux? Does it work?
works fine on linux, you can just add the .msi to steam as a non steam game and it should work with proton
Ok, from trying greatsword on Cohah.
Ridiculous idea, do not do it. Longsword is just better in every possible avenue.
I was doing Cogah with the Paragon and Tethren and breezing through enemies. I quite enjoyed it.
Mfw paragon's the main weapon i ever used for cogah 
hey is there a way to keep the compass from disappearing on me automatically? it's a little annoying having to summon my bird every 30 seconds
There's a setting in the accessibility options yes
If you go for a full Courage Build + Tethren and almost all of Mendicant King's armor and weapon. It's actually very Killer.
oh i missed it tyty
hardly needed 
It's fast though, at least for me.
Fast yes, strong yes, needed...? Not at all

You're right, I just do this setup to blitz bosses and grind runes.
Yus
Runes can give like 2500 of those totem points when you release them.
Good grind if you're trying to max out your runes and totems.
I will give it a go, hesitantly, fought the wazard, the greatsword attacks are so slow, he hits you every single time you land a hit, and sometimes you can't as he just flies away over and over.
Forcing you to beat it by spamming jump attacks or by stunlocking him, which is, I assume, Not intended for you to beat a boss by sprintstriking over and over.
I've dealt with wazzard just fine with greatswords 
What did you do?
As far as I can see, basic swings will not hit him as long as he is moving.
Heavy attacks, which are slower, will also not hit as long as he is moving.
What is the resolution to this? Other than spamming the jump attack or the questionably intended stunlock spam from the sprint attack.
(Which does, in turn, turn the greatsword into a glorified "I win" button via a single mechanic.)
I cheesed him in my own way, since Basker's (magick secondary) like throwing blades have lock on at a certain range. I made sure to invest in the skill that allowed me to cast faster standing still and do more damage at the end of a casting combo.
I used Tethren's 1st and 2nd for the damage boost. Make sure you have totems that give better smite chance so you can regain the abilities quicker and potentially heal.
So you beat him with throwing weapons?
Magick weapons.
Oh, just to reitierate, the wazard is fine to deal with, my point is surrounding using the greatsword.
@smoky crater what set up do you use for the paragon, trying to put a build together for it
You know... I have no idea
Oh my apologies, yeah with greatsword it can be slow, but I payed attention to where he reappears next when he sinks into the ground.
I dont do crazy builds or anything, i throw on what sounds like it might be good, armor wise even i maimly go for fashion, not armor values, and it works perfectly fine every time 
I see I see
Out of moonsteel?
I cba to minmax stuff or do proper buildcrafting,
Nope, havent used a single moonsteel thread yet and im at i think 51
Build number?
Wah
Is that like the number on the top right for equiping armor and such?
Nonono i mean 51 thread left still
I tend to hover in the 40-85 area tho, changes a lot
Oooh, why do you have 51?
When it zomes to defence*
45 from paragon pack and 6 for free for just being there when they introduced the system
What can be gained from the Cogah, other than the cogah necklaces so far?
Runes
Trauma, depression
Agari drop different runes in cogah 
Oooh, thankyeeee
is there a way to avoid the oscelda skills getting stuck on cooldown and not recharging? I have read that you can fix it by stepping in water or going to change pact, but it's happening just about every fight I'm in, this is making the class kind of an awful experience
can i get anyone to help me make a build that can help me through the game a bit
Stepping in water fixes it?
2 ways, switch pact, or wait for a fix 
it does, yes, but just annoying, almost wondering if I remove all points from that if I'd still have the bug or not...
what pact are you?
i dont know yet ive been swapping around lol but i feel they are all weak right now im trying to use seathorn as my main weapon
@lone wave \
Magick right.
yeah im currently bromius and before that was siren
I'm currently crafting Bromius, yet to know what that's like.
@kindred glacier If you want to go magicks, start grinding the Wazzard set.
Rememeber to explore, currently most of account level(and so stat points) come from destabbing world trees and revelaing location names
dont use your skills on inclines like stairs, and during loading areas, and when you might be getting kocked back by enemies, thats how i avoid it getting stuck
but otherwise ye, step in water, or die, or switch pact, or relog
And mastering weapons and pacts (level 30).
That is the lesser source of account level
Like i said most comes from exploration
When it comes to finding motes would they all be there all at once for location? Or would there be a few and you would have to come back later for the rest?
Would have to come later
Pretty sure at most 2 spawn at a time
Not only that it is slow, like you have to wait for a phase of the day cycle for it to be updated.
Didnt feel too bad for me while doing votives and doing laps around the map for agari
Certainly wasnt the best, but not the worst
hi guys, new to the game, could somebody explain to me 2 things:
- how do I reveal the map to not be foggy
- how do I make the names of the objectives not random symbols, but names.
for the location names scroll up just a bit we were just talking about it
for the map fog you gotta find the world trees and unstab them
that's all I found - unstabbing world trees, but does that also reveal names?
don't remember anything named ruin
oh runes you get from bosses
the bosses are called agari and they kinda are just around at set locations on the map
So not from seige or vadgar bosses?
siege yes vadagar pretty sure no
but the runes from the sieges are a few specific ones
I’ve only done the Curial siege so far
each rune usually comes from a specific place/agari
Where do I find the avocot vendor ?
How many times can you reforge a weapon? (Currently reforged once on a greatsword)
Like how many times can i reforge and keep adding joineries.
as many as you want, also they replace eachother
they do not stack
Ah so only 1 joinery stays on at a time
yup
His guaranteed spawns are listed on https://wiki.avakot.org/Avakot:
Thank you
Absolutely love it beyond reason when my character decides that sprinting is more important than casting a spell that would save me
Also, is there something that causes sprint to just not function on every other shift hold?
Does this mean, permenatly, just while you're in there? What's the criteria for this?
Does the attack go up?
it goes up with each boss kill but its a bit buggy rn so not worth using.
Also, it claims the Cogah drops the Everflame for longswords, but I had this long before I did the cogah?
Worth knowing, thanks.
I am assuming the buffs do not work outside of the cogah
correct
only the base stats apply when out of cogah but inside its supposed to increase with each boss kill but again its a bit buggy.
Even if they did work, it seems...kinda pointless, to an extent.
Well, for now! We can see what the future holds at least.'
actually they would be really usefull and powerfull because with each boss kill the levels go up and you will eventually reach the 100s in levels so your attack will keep going up.
but as of right now they are buggy so they aren't usefull but when they work they will help alot in reaching the upper levels of cogah
To what end.
You would be killing bosses over and over, with the power of a necklace, that you already got, for killing those bosses.
its to see how long you can last before you die really and the loot you get are good too like the high level runes and stuff its really the endgame stuff if your still mid game or near the start it won't make any sense.
What are the base virtue blessings given by the different pacts? It doesn't say anything anywhere, but they seem to give more or less virtues when I swap between them.
This would be great to know.
Does it even say anywhere?
Pacts don't inherently give virtues (anymore), but some of the Pact Perks do
Pacts do not give virtues by themselves, but you might have unlocked the Arts that do give them.
I've maxed out the perks that give the virtues, but it somehow still seems to change when that's the only change I'm doing
Also, might be worth exiting the armory and reentering if you suspect the count is wrong.
I'll try that!
Using all the perks that max out virtues, then swapping between two different pacts, with the exact same set up on both, results in different virtue levels for some reason at times.
There can be a UI bug with virtues after switching pacts, Dexell's suggestion can help specify if it's that
Hello, i havnt played since prelude 11, i was wondering did they change the way bestitching works ? (the transmog system). I know at preludes 11 it kind of sucked because you had to use the token everytime you wanted to apply a piece of armor, even if you applied it before. did they change it?
Yes, fairly soon after they implemented it.
Now once you unlock an appearance you can put it and remove it from all compatible armors.
There are buttons on either side of the door you need to hit, and possibly another on the opposite wall.
What's y'all thoughts on P14 changes to come ?
Time to change from Oscelda. 😛
