[2019] Melee combat fix, Sail fix, Armor Rebalance and more.

Original Post — Direct link

Some sh*t I've done with the dev kit.I've also redone the drop tables for SoTD's, Floatsam, Sunken Treasure and Treasure Maps and I added drops to Kraken and Snowman as well but I'm not 100% sure those are working outside the devkit since we can't do total conversion mod builds.

And Grapeshot would have you believe that many of these Changes are not possible or will take many months to do.

On the contrary, these changes are along the lines of our own plans for balance and changes and (as mentioned briefly in the Roadmap Recap post) our changes will be coming to the Live Game during Phase One. And no, they don't take long to implement. In the past, our approach was waiting to do a full pass and programming changes to improve these aspects of balance but, again, as mentioned in the Roadmap Recap post, we're now going to bring some quick and simple changes in to improve player experience in Phase 1 then loop back to do a full pass in later phases of our Roadmap.

Myself, Jat and Erik watched all of Okasen's vids a few days ago, took notes on some great ideas and discussed alternatives where we felt his proposed value changes weren't quite where we'd want it. Okasen frequently sends us valuable feedback and theorycrafting.

Happy but out of the loop player here:

Are you still planning on adding NPC pirate bases and cats soon?

Keep your eye on the PTR this weekend, hopefully we'll have something there for you ;)
