Dev Tracker: Discussion (Old)

[Brehn]

That's definately glitchy; my computer has no sign of that at all, with weather on and everything.

It only happens to me when the weather effects are turned off.

Edit: Thread is now posted for update notes.

[Jem]

NQ Hexed gear is now augmentable. That is an unexpected pleasant surprise

[Damane]

Dear lord I didnt expect to have NQ legion abjuration items to be augmentable oO

"[Windows Version]
The special effect for "hot" weather may now be toggled via the Weather Effects section of Misc. in the Config menu."

lol wow

[Kyreth]

Never seen that, so arguably a vid card issue on your end.

And the real fix fire weather needs is to actually spawn.

What, for geodes? Aside from the Adoulin zones, apparently we're supposed to grow the damn things with the unlimited supply of cactus stems they've been so kind to give us in the new expansion.

Stem + 2 fire crystals = profit?

[arus2001]

Well, there's the day/weather aspect, too, but if SE keeps pooping out high-D weapons, I doubt anyone will much care for the fire path stuff anymore, either.

[Byrthnoth]

If SE keeps pooping out high-D weapons, every alternative damage source besides meleeing the monster and using WSs will be even-more shit.

Magical ws getting crappier in comparision too. And what happened to the nuke adjustments from way back?

[Ligray]

Someone light the Slycer signal, Matsui made a post about RMEC (added a C for fake emps).

[Byrthnoth]

I'm not entirely sure, but it looks like the adjustments they're considering are somehow tied to the associated WSs. We're doomed? lol

[Kincard]

He does mention that opening RME WS is one idea they have (doesn't appear to be any mention of how Mythics and Coins will factor into this, he says he can't answer that right now). It really just seems like a damage control post. He directly states that he felt like he had to post because there was a lot of mad associated with completely curbstomping RME, but he also doesn't want to promise anything because people might be disappointed either because of not doing what they originally promised or because it takes too long for them to do it.

In other words, it's just a fancy way of saying that they actually have no idea what they're doing. I guess if they do the opened WS idea at least I have one 99 RME that's actually worth getting on basis of the WS alone (Blade: Hi), but I'm pretty sure we can count on one hand the amount of those WSs actually worth using just on their own.

[noodles355]

That'd be a great option to mythic owners, able to use mythic ws with any weapon. Oh wait

[Kincard]

I mean, I can't think of a lot of those WS worth using just on their own anyway:

Blade: Hi
Mercy Stroke/Rudra's (For stacked)
Wildfire
CDC
Ukko's
Jishnu's Radiance
Fudo
Coronach and Namas for less Enmity
Maybe Myrkr and Dagan if that's your thing?

Basically relics are totally boned, and maybe even empyreans if they just plan on allowing the same shit for coin weapons (Finally have a reason to make them I guess...)

[Jem]

Catastrophe too

[Byrthnoth]

Mercy Stroke isn't very good without Damage+40%. Coronach/Namas are useful strategically, but really suffer for damage without the +40%. Same story for all the relic WSs, actually.

Wildfire is going to be crap because it doesn't depend on gun base damage. Torcleaver might actually be good if we go back to doing a bunch of SAWS battles.


But okay, as long as we've confirmed that they really have no plan. Continue panicking!

[Kaisha]

Maybe if they let you have aftermath bonus...........

I don't know how it'd really affect much, other than letting my blu CDC with those insane swords some day. Wouldn't the higher base dmg of the newer weaps outweight the % bonus you get from 90+ relics?

[Kincard]

If you wern't getting that % bonus you'd probably just use your merit WS instead

actually even if you were getting that % bonus you'd probably just use your merit WS instead

[Byrthnoth]

If they let AM be maintained and give the % bonus, then many more "good" weapons would be saved. It would also be pretty full-out unbalanced, though. Mythic AM3 has always been somewhat balanced by the mediocre DPS of mythic weapons. Letting us use it with any weapon would be incredible, especially given the DPS increase that we already see on the new weapons.
