Got to Archer last night. Pretty fun class, now to go get Slayer and Necro. After that I'll probably be thoroughly bored of the game.

Archonex posted:In other news, don't slot any ether cores. Chat is saying that they're changing it to cost credits instead of argents. In the Russian version, yeah, it's all changed so that you just dump colored sparks + credits in, ether cores AFAIK aren't a thing over there and they don't cost argents to upgrade. Presumably we'll get the same system eventually. However the very first cluster of nodes coming off the initial 3 classes has an ether core in the middle you can't avoid.

Yeah but you aren't required to put any cores into it, you can just unlock it and continue on your way. I didn't even realize you can smash the cores into it for upgrades for a long time.

To whomever plays Scatterbrain Jane: there can be only one Jane, I'm afraid I'm going have to destroy you. Or maybe I'll change my name to be something worse later, I dunno.

So, dumb question. It asks which server to select, Europe or North America. I assume goons are on NA..?

Knight feels amazing with talents. I managed only to have enough sparks for a few since I maxed out paladin yesterday but taking 45% less damage in barrier form feels actually tanky.

Class items received from the Collectors Pack have a little more damage than the ones found in the Founders Pack.

So my pantheon chat is totally busted at the moment. I can't even see it to select it. If any leaders are online that could maybe kick me and re-add me to the pantheon (I'm in clan #9 I think) please do so. In game as: Gerdalti Dagune

I might get that to save myself some time. That being said it probably also sounds the death knell for this game for me as I'll throw down the $60 and never play it again.

I'm actually very happy with Gunner but had they put Witch and Archer in that pack I probably would've given them another 60. Hey I have poor impulse control. I did unlock Slayer but it kind of sucks without weapons and skills.

So my experience with Kinetic so far has shown it to be completely overpowered in a hilarious way. Want to take a bar and a half of HP off of bosses in a single attack every 10 seconds? Can do. Want to have spammable anti damage shields as a DPS class? Sure. Why not? Same goes for being able to buff your damage against a mob by up to 40 percent. The skills are hilarious too. I ripped a rock out of the ground and punched it so hard it went catapulting through the air and instakilled a normal mob. Then I kung fu'd so hard I created a hamster ball made out of lasers/energy into existence around my character before sending it careening across the battlefield. It detonated in an explosion in the middle of a horde of mobs, sending them flying. My character obviously wasn't hurt by the explosion they were in the middle of. Because that's how awesome kinetic is. Archonex fucked around with this message at 19:40 on Jul 16, 2015 |

So I saw a post on reddit stating that the Russian Skyforge has a dps meter that we do not have yet and that the information from the meter is seen by other players. If true, I can't say that makes me happy.

I don't mind it at all. It's not like this game isn't like 90% solo or playing with friends anyway. Anyway, I found one that the caps do indeed go up significantly every week and a RU player is at 25k something sparks after like two months. He still hits the cap within a reasonable time frame due to the increases in rewards, but it also means that if you stop playing for a month then come back you will likely be able to unlock every class you want without worrying about capping for a while.

Liberatore posted:I don't mind it at all. It's not like this game isn't like 90% solo or playing with friends anyway. Well, one could technically say that about most MMOs. 90% of the time you are either playing solo or with a guild of friends. I am a big fan of including tools that help a player measure their personal skill and progression but allowing that information to be seen by other players usually results in it being primarily used to filter/exclude others from being in a group. It just isn't as fun that way imo. HandsomeBen posted:Source your oforum quotes please. Sure thing. Source Xavier434 fucked around with this message at 19:58 on Jul 16, 2015 |

It just isn't as fun that way imo. Yeah, I can't think of a single MMO in which the addition of a dps meter has actually been a good idea. They almost always lead to elitism and toxicity in the community/playerbase. A meter that you could toggle on and only you could see the results is fine, but as soon as other people can see them you start getting all sorts of petty poo poo.

Meters make the problem more pronounced, but that isn't the problem with them. It is the community that is the problem.
