I'm almost certainly going to main bard, but for my damage alt...after watching the videos I'm torn between shadowhunter, soulfist, and scrapper. I really like all their aesthetics. Then I watched videos for the unreleased classes and got sad reaper isn't going to be available. it looks unique even compared to the other assassins.

Harrow posted:Watching that video is kind of amusing because I know Striker and Wardancer are sort of gender-swapped counterparts (Striker was added to be a male version of Wardancer I think?), with some differences to justify being a different class, but drat Wardancer looks so much cooler in action than Striker. I'm not sure why but I can just tell by watching them that Wardancer seems a lot faster and more dynamic (at least aesthetically) despite being mostly the same class.

You can buy more character slots up to 12 or 18. It's also worth noting that most forms of progress not gear or directly connected to gear are account-wide.

Yeah, mirror classes share the same buffs. It's worth noting that different buffs with the same effect from different classes do stack, but the same buff coming from multiples of the same class (including mirror classes) doesn't.

You're right, I guess they share one but not the other.

I got to the cutscene with all the demon lords talking after you find the first ark and...is their boss supposed to be silent? Every time it was talking the screen was shaking and there were subtitles but no voice audio, not even some kind of demonic rumble or roar. If that was intended it certainly didn't feel like it was.

Memnaelar posted:I thought the game was pretty simple also, but once you get to the second continent and hit the level 20 dungeon, you can taste some of the FFXIV inspiration and you finally, for better and worse, get a long-form WOW-type dungeon. I think it's pretty clear you're in tutorial mode for the entire first continent. I'd say reserve judgment until you get to that point. And yeah, the dungeons that end in multi-phase boss fights are pretty cool, although not particularly difficult compared to the regular boss fights. I think the only casualties I've seen in hard dungeons have been people who get really stubborn when the boss targets them and just stand still and get juggled instead of running around dodging while the rest of the group does damage.

Really? Does the HP scale down if you solo them? Stuff doesn't die instantly in a group of 4.

Two questions: If I hit 50 early in steampunk robot land because I loving love side quests should I immediately sail to North Vern to do the important unlock quests or is that impossible for some reason? Once you unlock the powerpasses, can you use them on another server?

I'm kind of impressed this game actually bothers to have Z-axis hit detection but also kind of annoyed because it feels like half the classes constantly juggle trash above my soul fist death fields and kamehamehas.

Taima posted:I still can't believe how much they underestimated the launch (huge queues before the free people can even play) kind of crazy, someone hosed up. And it's way worse in this case since apparently moving character rosters between servers is a colossal pain in the rear end on the back end and Smilegate almost never did it.

deep dish peat moss posted:I started off playing a Soulfist the other day and while I love their Supersaiyan resource/skill in theory, I hate the way it plays out in-game where it just ends up being a not-100%-uptime damage buff - so you just have periods of doing less damage and periods of doing more. There's nothing wrong with it exactly but it didn't feel like 'going supersaiyan' for tough fights, it was just a buff I pressed on cooldown then forgot about. Idk if the other class's gauges unlock gradually like that but it definitely makes a huge difference for SF.

I managed to make it to level 50 with an ilevel of 234 and the game won't let me into chaos dungeons, even solo. That's extremely lame. Is there an easier way to gear up or is it back to steampunk island for me?

Chaos dungeons are pretty mindless fun, like greater rifts but you barely even need to move, 100 monsters just spawn on you ever 5 seconds. Guardians feel like they take forever, but maybe everyone is just bad. I know I am. Are chaos shards easy enough to get I should be using awakening on cooldown? I know I should use my counter when the bear flashes blue, but I swear it never works, even if I'm kind of in front-ish of it. Does it only work directly from the front? Standing there waiting to counter seems like a bad idea when 80% of the time he'll just be stomping on my face instead.

Count Thrashula posted:If I just got to Vern Castle and I have 3/7 of the Ark pieces, am I anywhere near the end of the story? Or am I really less than half of the way there? I'm curious what point I get my other Powerpass buffs. There's more story interspersed between content tiers as your ilevel gets high enough, but the T1 endgame stuff all unlocks during the NV quests afaik.

acumen posted:Also - having just hit 50, is there anything I should be doing immediately? I just finished the hoverboard robot stuff and I know I've got a whole new continent to plow through before I get a couple power passes. Should I be optimizing my playtime by clearing chaos dungeons or whatever other activities there are at this point? Can I skip the rest of Arthetine and just go to North Vern so I can play some other classes? Sindai fucked around with this message at 23:20 on Feb 12, 2022 |

The loot preview for chaos dungeon resonance 2 (the 340 ilevel version) shows I should be getting purple accessories from it, but all I get are blues. I do get purples from the second guardian. What gives?

It turns out they literally can't add any more servers to EU for technical reasons (how many servers are there in KR? I guess it makes sense there's a limit considering how many things are region-wide) and instead they have to create an entire second EU region. Oof.

Soul fist will run out of energy if you take a bunch of expensive skills or have a bunch of swiftness and aren't hyped up, which is why the infinite energy class engraving is so nice. I dunno about the other classes, it may never be an issue unless you have extremely high swiftness and a bunch of CD reduction tripods.

It was a real dick move to put a red overlay on the screen during the part of Sigmund when you need to look at the ground to see whether color the death shockwave was red or white. No wonder people have such a hard time figuring out that mechanic when you try to explain it in text.

jokes posted:Nobody likes or plays wardancer it seems but I really like it. Is something wrong with it? This image came from someone taking the time to note down the advanced class %s during character creation on Una, so it should be accurate. Though a lot of this may just be that there's no destroyer/summoner/reaper to dilute the pool of players who wanted that type of character, while 4/5s of the martial artists are in the game and they're somewhat similar.

AFAIK there's no reason not to pop every random card pack and learn the cards immediately. If you get duplicates they stack up in your card inventory until you use them to actually level that card.
