The current plan for Primals/Elders is to have them live in Paradox Breaks only. I know their creator wants to polish a few things in the future when she finds time.

Portals will not be launching on June 3. We aren't comfortable with its current state at this time.

Drask is getting a full makeover, and it's looking amazing!

Yup! Not sure about the weapons, but we're working on some armour pieces now. They're like a variation of the current Drask armour

Yay!

Hello Slayers,

Welcome to another edition of State of Dauntless. This one’s big! We’ll be discussing our developer pipeline, release schedule, and how these things impact feature polish and future iterations. We want to explain how we used to look at content releases pre-Reforged and how we’ve changed post-Reforged.

Let’s get into it!

How We Used to Launch Content

Historically, we always aimed for large content drops with a ton of features all at once, but it meant they were spread far apart on the calendar. An example of this would be each Escalation launch. Let’s look at 1.3.0 for example. This patch saw a new Behemoth, Escalation environment, Hunt Pass, Slayer Journal, and the Training Grounds. It was a patch packed to the brim with content, but then we did not have another large content patch until 1.4.0. With patches like this, we would see players hungry for content between launches.This made us consider delivering content to players more f...

As a person who locked himself in the arena with them during development, YEP!

Chronovore makes a really big "splashy" impression but once you learn the moves you start seeing it as more bark than bite. Reminds me of a lot of when I first fought Torg.

Wh--- how?!

There's definitely something weird happening here. Thanks for flagging, we're looking into it!

Thanks a ton for the thoughts and feedback! Really good post. I've passed this on (with the conversation) to our devs!

What these two said!

Hey everyone!

A lot to discuss here. I'm currently working on a State of Dauntless post that digs into our developer pipeline. Should be out later this week and has a lot of information on how the sausage gets made.

We've been seeing a lot of players assuming that the Dauntless team has shrunk, but in reality, it's the same size as it's peak. The composition is a bit different, but we're still committed to developing Dauntless for the years to come. Heck, we're still hiring for the Dauntless team!

It's true we're making new games, but our studio has grown a ton since we started that effort so we can maintain momentum on Dauntless.

Anyways, stay tuned for the next State of Dauntless post which will dig into things like cadence, polish, and the current seasonal structure.

I think this one is fixed in 1.6.4 👍

This should be fixed (or at least a lot less OP) in the next patch, 1.6.4. ;)

Well, that ain’t right…

🤔

Actually, 1.6.5!
