Thanks man, and for example, if I and a friend enter in a solo dungeon, how much time should we wait for the entrance to dissapear?
You should wait 60 seconds in blue/yellow zones and 90 seconds in red/black zones.
Im actually not quite sure here. Does the dungeon need to be fully cleared to despawn? I think i remember dungeons clsoing if : no player is inside AND a player has been inside. I shall test this sometime.
The dungeon has to be cleared info might be wrong on my part. Can't confirm or unconfirm it atm though. You're probably right and it just needs players to enter and then leave to close it after a certain amount of time.
Group dungeons do not close after entering. They only despawn some time after all players have left and cleared the dungeon.
Could you explain resilience penetration, AoE escalation, focus fire protection, and why my Es do 100 damage or guide me to a source that explains them?
I'll try to explain each of them in short detail.
Focus fire protection: The more players attack you, the higher will be your focus fire protection. The first player will deal 100% damage, when the 2nd player starts attacking he will lower everyones damage on that target by 10%, this keeps scaling with every additional player dealing damage all the way down to 80% damage reduction as far as I know. This should also explain why your E only does 100 dmg after many others already attacked the same target, if it's at the 80% cap it would've normally done 500 dmg.
Resilience penetration: Directly related to focus fire. All melee weapons have a certain modifier for this, basically they pierce through a percentage of the focus fire. If a target is down to 80% reduction and you have 50% resilience penetration you will only deal 40% reduced damage with that weapon.
AoE escalation: The more players your spells hit the more bonus damage will it do. Example...
Read moreRead moreI think one of Albion's biggest problems, is the amount of obscure mechanics, and lack of tutorials/guides. Wiki is completely outdated, guilds hoard their knowledge, and even among the top end players, a lot of them still don't know how some basic mechanics work. I recently made a test and asked some veteran ZvZ players, do they know what resilience penetration stat means, and majority had 0 f**king idea, they thought it's about penetrating armor, because it's not explained anywhere in the game.
Majority of people in alliances like ARCH, probably don't even know that something like AoE Escalation or Focus Fire Protection exist. They don't know how debuff works. They join some big alliance, go to zvz, get oneshotted, and have 0 idea why enemy 100-0 them in 2 hits, while their E's hit for 100 dmg, and they feel overwhelmed. For many players, even if dying isn't a problem, lack of ability to understand WHY they died and learn from their mistakes, certainly might be.

Hey, I really value your opinion on this and I can only agree to what you are saying. This is one of the biggest issues that I personally see as well, together with new players being lost after the tutorial and not knowing what kind of activities they can do in Albion.
I made it my personal task to improve the information available ingame and hope I can report about it in the near future. We might get back to you and other reddit users to collect additional feedback.
