Hello Slayers and welcome to another Weekly Reflector. The purpose of these posts is to reflect on the past week, talk about the feedback that you’re sharing with us and give you an idea of how we’re using it to improve the game, as well as support bi-weekly Q&As! If a point of feedback that’s important to you isn’t mentioned in this post, it may be because it’s a more recent development – or that we just need a reminder in the comments below!


Last Week’s Q&A

Dauntless hosts bi-weekly Q&As to help answer questions and concerns around community issues. For the complete post you can look here: Reddit, Forums! We are picking a handful of questions from both Q&A to put into a dev diary update. Keep an eye and see if your question gets answered personally by our devs!

Next week Q&A’s are returning to normal. If your question didn’t get answered, you are welcome to ask then.


Path of the Slayer - Issues Update

A lot of amazing changes have come to Dauntless with the recent Path of the Slayer update, but there have also been some new bugs. Below is an updated list of frequently asked questions about OB 0.7.1:

  • Missing Repeaters: For returning accounts that have never accepted the repeaters quest, the quest is currently unavailable. This will be fixed in the OB 0.7.2 hotfix patch.

  • Arid Shards: The number of arid shards awarded when fighting higher-difficulty Behemoths is currently lower than it should be. Arid shard distribution will be hotfixed this week (OB 0.7.2) so you can continue leveling up your Hunt Pass.

  • Peerless Arcstone: Currently peerless arcstone are not distributing correctly. This will be hotfixed in OB 0.7.2.

  • Unable to get 400 gear score: Slayers cannot currently reach the 400 gear score required by some quests. This requirement will be lowered to 380 with the OB 0.7.2 hotfix.

  • Arcstone Grind: We've heard your feedback about the Arcstone grind, and we're looking into making it feel better. Expect some increases in Arcstone between now and our console launch.

Previous Update:

  • Guild Charter refunds: Some Slayers who owned or purchased a Guild Charter did not receive their 1,000 platinum refund. The platinum is granted to your account automatically, so please check your balance! If it is still missing, contact support.

  • Gear level is too low: Certain pieces of gear are lower level than expected after the update. This issue primarily affects Slayers who had late-game Maelstrom gear or leveled-up repeaters barrels. We are planning to credit affected Slayers with enough Arcstone, Orbs, and Rams to bring their gear back up to par. The goal is to have a fix out soon (this week).

  • Cell slot changes: Certain pieces of gear now have different cell slots than expected. We are hunting down affected weapons and armour so that they can be rebalanced in a future patch.

  • Gear Perks: Some pieces of gear now have new perks. On some pieces of gear, two +1 perks that didn't scale were converted to a single perk that scales to +3 (at armour level +10). This should help with the creation of better builds (and fewer wasted perk points), but we are always open to your feedback. Let us know if this change isn't working for you.

  • Missing prisms: Some prisms have been removed from the game and replaced by equivalent weapon mods. The prisms affected were:

    • Windrunner Prism changed to Lightweight Frame
    • Duelist Prism changed to Extraction Catalyst
    • Sharpshooter Prism changed to Precision Sights

Clear Skies!
