Is there an ideal stat breakdown sheet for each type of weapon? Just curious if someone has minmaxed them yet.

I had previously decided to max out strength, have 40 in armor and the rest into Dex. I'm wondering if I shouldn't just max armr in lieu of strength. Or, if the extra Dex will help me get through armor.

You can respect all your points right? Is there anything I can permanently screw up?

You get a few books to do that from quests but otherwise you're stuck with your allocation. I'd argue the most useless stat is toughness because an additional 100HP or a total additional 4300 if you max out that attribute sucks.

Depending on your main weapon your primary stat should be either Strength or Dex. Armor seems to be pretty good since it just negates damage outright from what I've heard. You could do a blend of armor + secondary stat or just pump both strength and dex, confident that you're doing max damage.

So if you haven't been playing this game lately the siege servers have been absolutely making GBS threads themselves over and over again during peak hours for the past week. Of course there's no chance the localized version of the game will get actual developer support to implement for instance queues or any sort of limiting on the amount of players joining matches.

Though I will give them credit they did fix people rampantly abusing cheat engine in the closed beta.

There's a post on steam about how they are upgrading servers by this weekend. Other battles are ok but sieges are def rubber band city.

Also, here's the link for the discord channel:

https://discord.gg/X8th5cD

It's going to have all sorts of people not just goons. So if you have IRL friends or people from other places of the internet who are into this game, feel free. I'm not doing any sort of vetting. Just don't be a chode.

Yeah so playing with the options w/ discord made me realize how awful I am at setting up rights and permissions. For example, I don't know how to lock a text channel so that only select people can pin and edit it. If some intrepid goon who is playing this and is good at that wants to step up --- by all means.

Good gaming tonight. It was fun grouping with people. Unfortunately our negotiations with House Dragons fell through and they lost one of their two fiefs. Maybe next time they'll take me up on my merc offer?

Tbh it was too short notice to muster everyone. Anyone looking to get in on this don't hesitate. I enjoy helping everyone out in a battle and gain hero, unit and etc. XP.

I actually managed to play some last night. Now that I’ve unlocked a few more troops it makes sense why I was getting dumpstered once I ran out of my three units, everyone else had like eight troops to bring. I unlocked the poleaxe and it seems really good at mowing down frontline troops. Overall the game does seem to be getting better as I unlock stuff.

Maybe some day I will be able to join in goon group. Thanks for the invite last night but I expected to walk away at any moment so I didn’t want to leave you guys high and dry in a fight.

Next time join up anyway. We were doing team matches or whatever which are pretty short. The game is a lot better w/ friends.

I'm pretty sure there's some sort of scaling in team matches too. I was in there with them at level 17 and had no problem killing or defending against level 50+ dudes with all sorts of weapons. It was a really good time!

It's preliminary still but I did get our House a deal with a larger house to assist them in the next territory war. Our "pay" is contingent on whether or not they get a city (which is a requisite to form alliances, etc.) So this is cool.

Hellborg showed me the ropes tonight and we tried a proper shieldwall backed up by pikes. It works amazingly well, which is pretty rare to see even in more sim-y games like this. Check it out:







I'm amazed more Goons aren't jumping on this game yet, it's amazing.

We kept trying this strategy out in crazier and crazier situations until we got completely and hilariously overwhelmed when we tried to take on a mob of like 500 guys (the entire enemy team). We were completely surrounded and just got munched, it ruled.

The servers for territory conquest completely crashed and no one could log back in for like 20 minutes. Quality online gaming from my.com

e: They basically have no clue why it happened, a very few people could log in and those people took all the cities and are now charging idiotic tariffs on the resources gathered there.

Aren't you in Maoyang region? I keep hearing that Ming zerged the area and turned it into a wasteland

I didn't start in Maoyang because I played with Ming in closed beta and watched them decimate everyone. I'm in Liangyun where they can't reach us yet.

Ostaria is a poo poo show too but we have something brewing with our merc contract. Too bad the servers poo poo the bed. I also got banned from the official discord for spamming during the serve crash lol.
