Welcome back to another installment of community highlights! This week we have our first cosplay post along with some amazing javelin shots.

The Tombs of the Legionnaires make for an excellent javelin photo opportunity. And of course, every tomb completed is worth celebrating.

Where those difficulty modifiers ever fixed? There was a tweet from I believe Ben Irving, but I could be confusing which dev..Said that the wrong scripts were put it, making them not be the proper drop rates. There was never an update for that, saying if it was fixed or not. This was during Early Access.

Ah, well... The values are definitely set up and working. When we run loot simulations, the output definitely changes based on difficulty. 😊

Wouldn't happen to be able to share those modifiers would you?

Is that to say that the higher difficulties are no more likely to reward rare drops, or that the term for that rarity adjustment is something other than "luck"?

Yeah, basically that. 😊

Luck has a specific set of modifiers... There are separate modifiers for difficulty that increase drop chance and rarity.

Probably referring to the game giving increased chances for MW/Legendary in GM2 or GM3 over GM1.

Having clear values stated somewhere on this would be awesome honestly. Because it really doesn't feel like any amount of increased chance between GM1 and GM2.

Ah, well yes... There are difficulty based modifiers. It's a bit different from luck, but it also affects drop chance and rarity. 😊

No additional benefit but it's reported base luck at GM 3 is 200. So we get 10 extra luck that does pretty much nothing for us on GM3?

Sorry, where are you getting that from?

As I mentioned there is only one source of luck in the game (gear/weapon stats), there are no luck specific bonuses per difficulty level. 😊

Like the system crashes and system failures? Those things that you have been silent on? Meanwhile Ben is trying to be cute with his little "heya" reply that isnt helping anybody. Tons of people have lost faith in this team and you havent communicated any information since the half assed loot patch.

We're here, just hard at work. I'm putting together the patch notes for the next update that contains a lot of fixes to issues being reported.

I'm also putting together a livestream for this Wednesday. Time isn't final yet, but we're aiming for 3pm CT.
