Well, lewtt is like the king of the order rushing for greatness, which pretty much just disproves all your thoughts. Essentially, his order is giving him a whole ton of might/stamina/%hp, and a small amount of other stats from chapels. His class development hasn't suffered, because those sparks are independent of the ones he is using on the atlas. poo poo you're unlocking on the atlas in the context of 1 week is not going to turn you to poo poo. No idea what exactly he is using for gear, but in general that isn't going to turn you from suck to hero. The biggest thing that is going to make someone terrible is not having basic class abilities and no weapon at all, and those aren't from "mixmaxed prestige", they're from someone just unlocking the class and jumping into a dungeon to get carried. In fact, I think he unlocked slayer this week and has been blowing stuff up with that, which pretty much just shows that he wasn't really put in a bad spot on the atlas. Also, you're going to want those greatness nodes anyways because sooner or later your order will get that high. His points about being able to start getting various one per two day item drops is legitimate.

RottenK posted:i think some people minmaxed prestige by focusing on grabbing greatness nodes in the most point effecient way to the detriment of grabbing perks and stats that are best for their class you get greatness nodes so you can get big prestige from the might and stamina bonuses on your temples, which are both used for every single class. the alternative to greatness stacking was running down a path to unlock a different class, which was pretty obviously preferable if you wanted another class. If you didn't at the time (like me), then there wasn't really a penalty to minmaxing prestige. most perks n stuff are class spark specific, so there's not really a way to minmax that so you might as well just get what is good. The route I took for greatness nodes got me the passive ability nodes in the big AA that I wanted anyway (ultimate strength, lucky shot, and maximum recoil) as for gear use, i keep the highest prestige gear I have in my inventory but i equip the poo poo that is better, ie founder's gear. The only time I ever put on the high prestige gear is when I need to hit another prestige breakpoint in the end though, it's just picking which content you want to see and farm up earlier: currencies or classes. everyone who hits their weekly caps will get both sooner or later lewtt fucked around with this message at 10:27 on Jul 17, 2015 |

lewtt posted:Not that I could find. I mentioned in mumble about the hidden keybinds, like how holding shift and r opened up my progress menu for some reason, which makes my usual binding of R to an ability obnoxious Third Responses to player suggestions article on the russian portal says that this will be implemented "soon". I think you won't be able to rebind it, but you'll have a choice of having shift+wasd/double tap/both.

When I was below 2k prestige it seemed like I got x2 and x3 bonus missions all the time, now I don't get them very often. Is there some logic to it? Edit: Also, do the regions ever reset to being normal sparks rather than replicators, after you've done them once? They seemed a decent source of sparks.

Right now I am enjoying Necromancer. I have it at 5500~ prestige. I have considered getting Archer and Kinetic also, but all three of those are DPS classes. I am wondering for those of you who are high prestige right now is there a need for constant role switching? ie; DPS to tank, DPS to support.. that sort of thing? Or is this game 100% doable as nothing but DPS? Also is there any benefit to having multiple DPS classes? I assume just the class symbol?

I just finished a dungeon where I tanked trash and one boss and went Gunner for the other two. It depends on what you do. Also I really need some people to do Daren Facility with me so I can unshitty my Engineers and actually build that guild hall thingy.

Posting this again for those that have hit their limits and are looking for where to get gear to up their prestige a bit more: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mjNa1XFPIgVFKKnsH5pERD1UZG4jnmSWbfzLrsU56RY/edit#gid=0 Also I'm pretty sure they took away farming the first boss of Port Naori for class sparks.

You can't outright buy that class right now, it was a founder thing. It'll take you some time to unlock it but there are decent classes on the way and the starters are very good.

Is there any way to get his game to run properly on multiple monitors? It keeps snapping to my second monitor that has a higher resolution. I can sorta get it to work in a window, but that isn't ideal as it cuts things off.

Fullscreen and Windowed Fullscreen keep snapping to the right, windowed sorta works if I manually set the rez and then drag the window over. Never had this problem with any other game, kinda weird.  I have checked and my display settings do have the correct monitor as my primary

This is part of the announcement of the first large content patch that hit Skyforge in glorious motherland ( ) in May. This is not a direct translation, more like a mix between a translation ad a summary of the announcement plus stuff from a more detailed article about the feature.I will translate more in the future, but for now here's text about becoming Zeus. quote:God form

We already have that patch and most other major patches, by the way. And there's a thingy on the forums that explains the system pretty well. "Attack of an avatar" = invasions.

Yeah, here's the announcement: http://sf.my.com/us/news/announcements/unlocking-power-your-divine-formPesterchum posted:Yeah, Monk is around 9 of those large grid circles away from the start, Berserker is 11. Archer, Slayer, Kinetic and Necromancer are 6. You can't take the shortest path to Monk before you start doing distortions, so it's actually 11 clusters. The nodes around monk and in the cluster before are also quite expensive; Berserker as well, but less so. And both Slayer and Archer are pretty much on the way to Berserker, whereas only Necromancer is on the way to Monk.

So apparently ranged Slayer is a really good build. Kind of found out by accident but there's a bunch of stuff for your shurikens and with the right weapon and amulets blood harvest does absurd amounts of damage so there's no reason to ever get close enough to get hit.

On the other hand, necromancer is the master class and is worth getting, and it's actually pretty close to archer too, so I'd imagine it's just a longer path to get to berserker but still relatively quick with lots of class unlocks along the way.

So I want to give this game a shot, it looks pretty cool but I can't even register. It won't let me get past the captcha. Has anyone else had this issue? I figured it was some Chrome add-on but I disabled all those. Do I need to use a different browser to register? Seems sort of dumb but I can't think of what else it might be. I have tried various ones with both numbers and letters and uppercase and lower case, it might be me being dumb on my cold medicine but I can't see what else I would be missing here.

Yeah, necromancer is on the way to monk so I'll definitely be messing with it on my way to monk dancing. I may or may not be too stupid to figure it out though, it didn't click for me in the tutorial part.

First time I've seen anything about this game, just read the whole thread cause my job is boring. Count me in. Gonna get up to whatever prestige before I bug anyone about joining. No idea what class I'm gonna play but it seems like you can eventually unlock all of them so whatever. If anyone else is just starting out and wants to group up in a couple hours i'll be chillin in the mumble.

The big thing is planning your death, it's a weird mentality but once you get used to planning spending all of your health on summoning poo poo and dying then getting it all back in lich form it'll kind of click.

Pros and cons of playing Necromancer: Pros: - You can't die easily, if at all Cons: - If your party is bad (most people), you can't die easily, if at all..which leaves you trying to solo bosses with piddly necro dps (compared to other dps classes) when your team inevitably stands in the fire. This is fun as heck, but grouping with 2 other DPS and watching everyone, but yourself die is tiresome in 3 mans. Moral of the story? Solo poo poo. Since I like group play..I might have to consider a tank/support class for when I don't want to solo.

Obscurity posted:Pros and cons of playing Necromancer: If you're the last one alive and you can't kill the boss within a minute or two you should just let yourself die, tbh. Necro can bring the utility of providing meatwalls and eating damage for other players that other dps can't, though, which is where you can shine in group play. They probably should do more damage than they do now, though.
