I might be remembering incorrectly, but I believe the person who was in charge of the Trello page is gone. The devs did announce the last event on Discord, but couldn't find anything on this one however. Just a PSA for those who might wanna get on for it this weekend. :)

Not gone, just incredibly busy preparing for the big update. We have some initial plans for improvement there in the future though. For now, we've been putting them into Discord events here: https://discord.gg/dauntless

If I had known that beforehand I wouldn't have spent my seasonal Coins at end of every season lately. (`:

Gotta ask because I got a flashback from the old Vault sale: should we spend our hoard on the sales or is it better to keep the hoard until the change just in case we get... ahem... "some small reward"? :P

There will be no reason to hold onto them, best to spend them on what you want when you get the chance!

Escalation buffs are where I notice the biggest difference. I can blow through my maxed out escas like it’s nothing. But I hate frost escas and haven’t leveled them so it takes me way longer

Any particular reason you hate them? If it's the frost, I recommend a crit build and the crit stone at the start, it negates frost quite rapidly.

Definitely still sticking around in 2.0 and worthwhile investing in!

What a waste of skins :c they could just be summoned by Legendary behemoths, populate 1-13s or be in a dedicated hunting ground for little brothers.

There will be two exceptions - Lesser Embermane will remain on Emberthorn Cove which is functionally a tutorial island, and one of our upcoming Legend Behemoths will summon backup in the form of some Lessers, but otherwise they will no longer show up in place of full Behemoths in public events, Escalations etc. Having players face a literally "lesser" version often just doesn't show off the Behemoths or gameplay in the best way (as fun as it is to bully them into submission).

Nice look!

The 5k damage dashes may have been the Tempest Omnicell which is different from what you see here but similar visually.

Geez, why would they reset them?😭

The norm was resetting every season, it was only turned off recently to allow slayers to hoard for this.

"Player made reports" so for this to be effective someone has to report that player correct? meaning you need intervention from another player for this to be effective? So what says these players never got reported and remained unbanned, I obviously stated in my post that these players were NEVER banned and actively play Dauntless, most of them seen last week playing. So obviously this has no meaning whatsoever it seems Dauntless relies on EAC as a "shield" unfortunately EAC doesn't detect this type of "behavior" so saying that these have been acted upon is completely thrown out the window when you mention "Player made reports" which obviously doesn't work too well, unless it isn't true that 100% of reports are "investigated"....

I mentioned players rarely report this anymore because we're on top of it. This shows that we are proactive rather than reactive.

I will never discuss details of cheat/exploit detection though as additional security through obscurity is always going to be a net positive.

I am saying if you feel someone is cheating, you're encouraged to report them and we will investigate and have done so with 100% of reports thus far.

Hello, I'd like to clarify a few things.

  1. We investigate 100% of player made reports, even well known top players that post runs publicly and are reported repeatedly. This is to keep the process unbiased and keep play fair. We acknowledge it's possible for a top player to start cheating.
  2. We have had a very aggressive policy for at least a few years to the point it went from receiving player reports almost weekly, to next to never now. We also hit a lot of people that wouldn't normally be noticed by players.
  3. This is actually pretty rare now because we've been so aggressive in hitting them most just don't try anymore.
  4. We permanently ban first offenses, which probably helps contribute to number 3.

As long as it's not using a 3rd party program this is correct! In this case, we're happy with where it's at currently, but please do report exploits in general. Especially ones that can be used in competitive modes.

The primary goal of a game is to have fun without impacting others negatively. Hitting for 23 million in moderation is indeed fun.

Should be resolved now, reload Ramsgate via a different map or re-opening the game and it should work. Thanks for the heads up!

The more parts you break the more chances there are for epic stuff to drop. Try to break as many parts as you can before killing.

Full Tempest build should do the trick, but even then it hits so hard that you won't break more than 3 parts if used correctly.

Another thing you could do is freeze the behemoth, making it slower (so it's easier to target parts) using Pangar lantern and Frost weapons (if you don't have Urska legendary yet)

People recommend against part damage builds as it doesn't increase core damage and as a result takes slots that could otherwise increase core damage. But in cases like this, sometimes you want less core damage to kill slower and break more parts. So could try that too.
