| 91s | charity right now which is a sweet |
| 93s | organization involved in bringing kids |

| 116s | strong but we're pretty good |
| 118s | it's pretty good |
| 122s | I just I need to drop the difficulty |
| 124s | down slightly because there's too many |
| 125s | modifiers on that |
| 127s | models are already you know just like |
| 129s | just just just just ease things up a |
| 131s | touch |

| 161s | kind of have black friday-ish but not |
| 164s | really because like we don't have our |
| 166s | thanksgiving's like a month and a half |
| 168s | ago already at this point so |
| 170s | um this is only totally like tie like |
| 173s | pin it to |
| 180s | a little weird |
| 182s | also in future news |
| 185s | we'll be uh we've got some interesting |
| 188s | stuff coming to the stream soon |
| 189s | hopefully |
| 191s | um |
| 192s | I know it's really vague but uh I I |
| 195s | think we're gonna have some exciting |
| 196s | stuff that we've been wanting to do on |
| 199s | stream for a while we're finally gonna |
| 200s | be able to do soon |
| 202s | um vague for Shadowood |
| 207s | which is pretty cool |
| 213s | yeah |
| 215s | are you angry game thank you I |
| 217s | appreciate that I'm glad you're enjoying |
| 219s | it I assume you're enjoying it |
| 223s | this build is |
| 225s | um |
| 226s | it's a lot of fun there's there's some |
| 228s | uh spiky versions of it you can get into |
| 231s | with super late game stuff |
| 233s | um we're still pretty early last time if |
| 235s | you weren't here we managed to get on |
| 237s | first try get this um less bonus damage |
| 241s | from crits onto our weapon which is |
| 243s | amazing |
| 246s | with a single LP weapon |
| 258s | and our goal this time is to get |
| 261s | um some sort of |
| 262s | uh |
| 264s | uh wow lots of damage coming out |
| 267s | our gold this time is to get some |
| 269s | legendary on our chest |
| 271s | so we already have our uh one LP chest |
| 275s | version so we just gotta find an exalted |
| 277s | item to go with this |
| 279s | um |
| 280s | we're gonna do yep but you know |
| 281s | something sweet comes along okay come on |
| 290s | Mr proven points |
| 300s | I started uh I started looking into |
| 303s | Links of the past randomizers |
| 306s | I I just like I've sort of seen YouTube |
| 308s | videos pop every once in a while about |
| 310s | like this sort of thing and like sort of |
| 313s | dismissed it I actually tried it |
| 314s | recently oh man it was fun |
| 317s | I also realized that I know nothing |
| 319s | about that game |
| 324s | this sometimes fun |
| 336s | oh come on Mike |
| 339s | one thing at a time |
| 342s | is there anything is I I'm not sure what |
| 344s | we're looking for for our chest exalted |
| 346s | but um |
| 347s | I guess I'm wondering what we should be |
| 348s | looking for |
| 350s | it has an idea of what they think we |
| 351s | should be looking for let me know |
| 354s | if you have any questions buddyfuck |
| 356s | where it's going where we've been what |
| 357s | we're doing |
| 359s | happy to answer those two |
| 365s | as I get meeting invite notifications on |
| 367s | my phone |
| 377s | definitely doing one thing at a time |
| 379s | here |
| 392s | now look what are the actual Buffs we're |
| 395s | gaining from anomaly because I can't I |
| 396s | remember I was gonna look at it last |
| 398s | time I just never did |
| 399s | uh |
| 402s | oh look at these we should kill things |
| 403s | first before looking |
| 408s | all right let's just give me time bubble |
| 410s | yeah we know that |
| 413s | 10 cast speed very useful Health leech |
| 417s | yes |
| 420s | saturation |
| 422s | yep |
| 424s | good chance okay nice |
| 429s | leech crit text me works for me |
| 440s | uh hell you got a question hey uh why |
| 443s | don't we have throwing crit chance |
| 446s | appearing on the character screen like |
| 448s | others |
| 450s | Ah that's interesting |
| 453s | I don't know why maybe is is there |
| 454s | anything that actually gives that stat |
| 456s | specifically |
| 463s | yeah it's not there is it |
| 466s | that's weird I don't know why it's out |
| 468s | there |
| 469s | we may not have had the stat may not |
| 471s | really um |
| 473s | been around we created the character |
| 475s | sheet which is a long time ago it's just |
| 476s | before the Rogue really |
| 478s | um we've done some updates to it to add |
| 480s | in stats there but I'm surprised that's |
| 482s | not there |
| 503s | wow |
| 504s | these guys are |
| 505s | you guys are beefy |
| 507s | poison pen we'll take it |
| 514s | yeah that's interesting I don't know why |
| 515s | we don't have it there |
| 518s | um there's there's sort of this like |
| 520s | nebulous idea of one day we're gonna |
| 523s | update the character sheet oh and it's |
| 525s | gonna be awesome and we've like gone so |
| 527s | far as to create like a mock-up of it |
| 529s | and like set out design specifications |
| 531s | for it |
| 533s | um and just like never finish the actual |
| 535s | I never like at least we actually even |
| 537s | started it briefly |
| 539s | um and then we're like okay a person |
| 540s | working on that this other thing is way |
| 542s | more important you gotta change what |
| 543s | you're doing now |
| 545s | um |
| 546s | and then just like it was just one way |
| 548s | more important thing after another and |
| 549s | it kept getting pushed down the line so |
| 551s | it still is in the works |
| 553s | um |
| 554s | and things like that will be added in |
| 556s | what I'd really like to see and I don't |
| 558s | know how possible this is |
| 560s | um I I think it should be doable it's |
| 562s | because of the way that the Stat system |
| 563s | is set up |
| 565s | um is to actually have a like custom and |
| 568s | this is a this is a mic pipe dream |
| 572s | uh request for a system like this if I |
| 573s | was if I was making it |
| 575s | um |
| 576s | and that that's have a like custom stat |
| 579s | feel so like I'm gonna move this like a |
| 582s | favorite stats section so like there's a |
| 585s | whole bunch of these tabs and you can |
| 586s | like favorite some of them so that they |
| 589s | show up on the front screen but then |
| 590s | like if someone's not in here you could |
| 592s | even like with like a drop down menu you |
| 594s | could pick multiple tags because you can |
| 596s | because all the stats are just a |
| 597s | collection of tags So like |
| 600s | um |
| 601s | there's they'll have like a base |
| 602s | property and then it'll have uh added |
| 605s | increase or more value |
| 607s | and and that's that makes up the the tag |
| 610s | the the stat and sometimes there's like |
| 611s | additional things so like |
| 613s | um increased ignite chance is actually |
| 615s | the stat property ailment chance with |
| 619s | the optional tag ignite with the |
| 623s | um the type of |
| 625s | with the actual number that's involved |
| 627s | with it as an increased chance |
| 630s | um and so if you could just like pick |
| 631s | those things from a drop down you could |
| 632s | like make your own stats to like stick |
| 635s | out there which I think would be really |
| 636s | cool |
| 639s | um |
| 640s | let's see this it's a lot of work and uh |
| 644s | who knows if we can actually pull |
| 645s | something like that off but I think it |
| 646s | could be really good |
| 647s | um because there's just so many stats |
| 649s | being able to if there's like some |
| 650s | obscure build that you're like I really |
| 652s | need to track my bow reflect damage for |
| 655s | this build because it's a really key |
| 657s | component I don't know |
| 660s | um |
| 662s | not a dragon sign no healthy though and |
| 664s | uh yeah I think you put some cool stuff |
| 666s | in there |
| 670s | oh |
| 673s | I know we really want to get the the key |
| 675s | thing we want to put in the in the in |
| 677s | and updated character stats screen of |
| 679s | some sort is |
| 682s | um ability specific |
| 684s | information so like okay my and this is |
| 688s | a lot easier now since the reworked to |
| 690s | most skills has been finished actually I |
| 692s | think all seals now have been finished |
| 693s | as far as their back-end functionality |
| 695s | for stats is concerned and um |
| 700s | you could you could get like okay my my |
| 703s | uh Warpath has |
| 706s | um |
| 706s | this much chance to ignite and my |
| 708s | Warpath has this much chance to uh |
| 711s | poison and then my void cleave has this |
| 713s | much chance to ignite and this much |
| 714s | chance the poison type thing and you |
| 716s | could you could separate it out by |
| 718s | individual skill which is probably the |
| 720s | most important thing for people |
| 731s | I thought we were doing all this |
| 735s | this is a lot of stuff here and I kind |
| 738s | of want to just like oh all these are |
| 739s | about to drop off which is nice |
| 744s | anyways some endurance great we have |
| 747s | culling |
| 748s | no big deal |
| 755s | one health regen anyone no nothing oh |
| 757s | gosh |
| 774s | we've also got some interesting stuff |
| 776s | with increased cooldown recovery speed |
| 778s | relating to movement abilities and |
| 781s | um |
| 783s | uh the the order that they start in and |
| 786s | things like that coming that we're kind |
| 787s | of reworking that a little bit |
| 789s | it's just a touch on them |
| 791s | um |
| 795s | I think it'll make I I think we'll have |
| 798s | some some classes that are |
| 801s | um feeling like they don't have the |
| 803s | ability to get their movement speed up |
| 806s | to a reasonable position |
| 808s | uh have the opportunity to through |
| 809s | gearing to get their uh movement speed a |
| 812s | little bit better |
| 813s | and then um |
| 816s | uh classes that that have significantly |
| 820s | better movement speed |
| 822s | for the most part will feel relatively |
| 824s | untouched |
| 827s | um |
| 840s | a few exploit cases getting dealt with |
| 842s | two which is nice |
| 847s | will we ever get legendary items that |
| 849s | add extra projectiles duration oh wow |
| 852s | it should have been you know looking at |
| 854s | the screen soon whoops |
| 857s | um |
| 859s | will we ever get legendary items that |
| 861s | add extra projectiles duration other |
| 863s | stuff like that um so I assume you mean |
| 864s | unique items |
| 866s | um and yes we already have those so |
| 869s | I I assume Moore's is possible for sure |
| 872s | but um because like there's already uh |
| 876s | why are we here |
| 878s | um |
| 879s | Cinder is a cinder song |
| 886s | Defenders |
| 894s | brought the wrong name for it |
| 899s | I just it's a wand that adds two |
| 902s | projectiles to Fireball |
| 910s | s in there why didn't those go away |
| 913s | that's |
| 916s | I died this should go away |
| 920s | I wonder what happened there |
| 924s | okay |
| 925s | um |
| 930s | I'm I'm uh I'm struggling to make |
| 932s | progress here |
| 941s | I almost feel like we should just go |
| 943s | back here because we do have calling and |
| 944s | we'll probably be able to finish it I |
| 946s | think |
| 947s | will stash tabs always be available with |
| 949s | gold yes we don't plan on selling stash |
| 951s | tabs for real money if that's the |
| 953s | underlying question sitting there |
| 956s | um |
| 957s | just a quick reminder if you do want to |
| 959s | ask a question please put Atlas debut |
| 961s | game in the questions so I see your post |
| 963s | stand out a little bit easier |
| 970s | be all those like um |
| 974s | like the the sort of like the oh it's |
| 978s | not that bad pay for convenience stuff |
| 980s | um we really we're really avoiding that |
| 983s | stuff hard |
| 994s | it's a fair bit of poison on the ground |
| 995s | here |
| 1004s | like hype it's another question that |
| 1006s | usually comes up with with that is that |
| 1008s | um |
| 1009s | like hypothetically if we ever were to |
| 1011s | add in an auto loot pet type thing |
| 1014s | um it would be available |
| 1016s | without money and that any purchased |
| 1019s | versions of it would be just cosmetic |
| 1020s | variations on the mechanically identical |
| 1023s | in-game pet |
| 1026s | we do have Mini Pets they just don't do |
| 1027s | anything right now |
| 1041s | hey could you comment a bit on how do |
| 1044s | you balance |
| 1046s | um the shared subclasses I recently did |
| 1049s | a few Fresh ssf Starts uh and primals in |
| 1054s | Sentinel felt way better compared to the |
| 1055s | others just because they had access to |
| 1057s | more options yeah I I think this is an |
| 1059s | interesting |
| 1060s | um |
| 1061s | you'll you'll look at like acolyte Rogue |
| 1064s | and oh my goodness |
| 1069s | okay you look at acolyte Rogue and |
| 1073s | Mage and they're missing that third |
| 1075s | subclass it is it is hard to keep their |
| 1079s | um |
| 1081s | like the feel and the quality and the |
| 1083s | power all all on par with the other ones |
| 1085s | that the other two that like I say do |
| 1087s | have that third subclass and it's |
| 1091s | it's it's really difficult and I think |
| 1094s | that we definitely have |
| 1096s | um |
| 1101s | we've we've left room for it |
| 1104s | intentionally because we don't want to |
| 1105s | have to go back and do things as much so |
| 1108s | we we kind of don't in a sense |
| 1112s | um we try we try and give them as many |
| 1114s | options as we can and there are some |
| 1116s | instances where we've put a few nodes in |
| 1119s | one passive tree or even in the base |
| 1121s | passive tree where we're like okay |
| 1122s | eventually that's gonna be a rune Master |
| 1124s | node or oh eventually that's gonna be a |
| 1126s | falconer node and so we've we've hidden |
| 1129s | a couple of those around already |
| 1131s | um but for the most part we're kind of |
| 1133s | just in the mindset of let's let's do |
| 1135s | things with as much focus on this is |
| 1138s | what it's going to be like at launch as |
| 1139s | possible |
| 1141s | um and that's that doesn't always work |
| 1142s | and everything but |
| 1144s | um we we kind of want to |
| 1147s | if we can avoid redoing stuff |
| 1153s | so let's sort of just make it feel as |
| 1154s | good as we can with the |
| 1157s | with the space that we have the design |
| 1158s | space we have |
| 1160s | and yeah it doesn't always work out |
| 1163s | quite as well unfortunately |
| 1171s | I think my health is a little low I |
| 1172s | think that's part of the big problem |
| 1173s | right now is I need more health |
| 1179s | I'm not sure where that's going to come |
| 1181s | from possibly Idols partially |
| 1184s | um |
| 1185s | I think the passives that I'm looking at |
| 1187s | because I'm still only 83 I think a lot |
| 1189s | of the passives I'm looking at are |
| 1190s | Health passives right now |
| 1193s | I said that's a big problem about doing |
| 1195s | that level 100 content with uh level 83 |
| 1198s | characters there |
| 1201s | are 17 missing |
| 1203s | absence |
| 1207s | kind of conflicting stuff there uh |
| 1209s | Paladin skill avoid night passive |
| 1216s | what up last debug what up nastyb |
| 1220s | um |
| 1220s | how big of a bribe do you need to not |
| 1223s | Nerf umbral blades in upcoming passage |
| 1225s | patches well I mean I cannot Nerf it |
| 1228s | more |
| 1230s | than we already have but yeah |
| 1233s | um |
| 1235s | it's it's it's a pretty |
| 1240s | um |
| 1241s | Bonker strong ability right now |
| 1247s | ah icdr |
| 1250s | yeah I think part of the cooldown |
| 1252s | reduction stuff I was talking about |
| 1254s | before is cooldown Productions it's only |
| 1255s | on helmets |
| 1257s | and it's a little like |
| 1261s | um it's a little narrow right now |
| 1269s | I feel like someone was talking about |
| 1270s | that in here actually a little while ago |
| 1276s | lots of ground effects don't stand the |
| 1278s | fire ice |
| 1280s | go send in the cold fire |
| 1285s | stand down or die |
| 1288s | is multiplayer platform with same Unity |
| 1290s | engine version or is updated version |
| 1292s | it's the same uh I mean technically it's |
| 1294s | an updated version |
| 1298s | but it's like |
| 1301s | the the like |
| 1305s | um it's like 2019 point |
| 1309s | uh what is it |
| 1312s | foreign |
| 1316s | 19.4.40 F1 instead of like |
| 1319s | 2019.4.38 F1 or something like that |
| 1323s | you know it's basically the same but |
| 1325s | technically it is updated |
| 1328s | get that crit |
| 1330s | except on that |
| 1333s | I'm not critting they just get pure grit |
| 1335s | did I knock at the shrine |
| 1338s | did I just like not click on it |
| 1350s | just ate that one to the face |
| 1368s | Mike what did you say about standing in |
| 1370s | the fire |
| 1371s | oh yeah |
| 1373s | favorite breakfast |
| 1376s | my favorite breakfast is kind of weird |
| 1379s | um it's like one of the first things I |
| 1380s | learned how to make as a kid |
| 1382s | and it's |
| 1384s | um bunch of rice love rice |
| 1389s | um yet rice eggs cheese salsa |
| 1394s | my favorite breakfast |
| 1398s | I mean like |
| 1403s | I don't know I'm sure I could just like |
| 1404s | start listing off ingredients and uh or |
| 1407s | like things like okay we have like |
| 1409s | French toast I'm gonna have little like |
| 1411s | steak and eggs in there at the same time |
| 1413s | no like actual breakfast that I if I'm |
| 1415s | actually gonna make something |
| 1418s | yeah |
| 1421s | I'm sure there's like a real name for it |
| 1422s | but I don't have a name for it |
| 1429s | go away for a second guys come on |
| 1432s | I'm just gonna deal with these ones |
| 1433s | first |
| 1438s | welcome back |
| 1440s | didn't expect you so soon to the party |
| 1445s | across this bridge I've probably should |
| 1447s | have gone to that other one first I |
| 1448s | thought this was way closer |
| 1456s | we just started testing Temple sanctum |
| 1460s | in multiplayer |
| 1462s | it's pretty good |
| 1464s | it's pretty cool that actually got |
| 1466s | released to the CTS |
| 1469s | want to say yesterday |
| 1476s | can we normally this we can |
| 1483s | that's funny |
| 1491s | the um |
| 1492s | the the the game object |
| 1495s | on the back end that like you can't see |
| 1497s | it or anything but the the game object |
| 1500s | that holds things when you when you when |
| 1503s | you put them into anomaly like when they |
| 1504s | go in there |
| 1505s | um it's the game object itself is named |
| 1507s | a TARDIS |
| 1510s | like it's just called Tardis not a |
| 1513s | tardis yeah |
| 1516s | that was funny I thought |
| 1519s | uh do you expect multiplayer meta |
| 1523s | to have dedicated Support classes like |
| 1525s | Paladin or would you rather have all |
| 1526s | classes bring some Synergy options |
| 1528s | but no actual supports I I think we'll |
| 1531s | see |
| 1532s | um if I was able to like dictate what |
| 1535s | the meta was so like it's first off I |
| 1537s | should say I I know we have no real |
| 1538s | control over what the meta is we we can |
| 1540s | we can try and influence it by buffing |
| 1542s | and nerfing certain things |
| 1544s | um but it's going to be whatever the |
| 1545s | community decides it is really because |
| 1547s | that's that's just how it works |
| 1550s | um and hopefully everyone decides to |
| 1553s | make it something that is fun for most |
| 1554s | people I never clicked on that's |
| 1556s | hilarious |
| 1557s | um |
| 1560s | so yeah it's it's |
| 1562s | sort of whatever but if we if I if I |
| 1565s | could if you could say hey Mike if you |
| 1566s | could make the amount of whatever you |
| 1567s | want it to be what would it be I would |
| 1569s | say that there would be |
| 1571s | um |
| 1573s | there would be the option to play a |
| 1575s | support class if you wanted to |
| 1578s | um where it was functional and viable |
| 1581s | and it worked |
| 1583s | um |
| 1584s | but it wasn't required so um |
| 1587s | I know these like some viable and |
| 1589s | required or always so nebulous and like |
| 1591s | okay viable for what required to do what |
| 1594s | um and usually that conversation that's |
| 1597s | being discussed comes down to |
| 1599s | um viable ads |
| 1601s | Bible such a a funny term in something |
| 1604s | like this because quite often the line |
| 1606s | for viable is one of the top like one |
| 1610s | percent |
| 1611s | not even top |
| 1613s | tenth of a percent of builds those are |
| 1615s | the only viable ones that are the super |
| 1617s | Tippy Tip Top ones |
| 1619s | um |
| 1619s | and I'm not a huge fan of that but I |
| 1622s | mean fair enough I think it should be |
| 1623s | possible to complete multiplayer very |
| 1628s | high-end content be competitive with a |
| 1630s | support in your group but not be |
| 1632s | required to bring a support if you don't |
| 1633s | want to |
| 1634s | I think what will be more important |
| 1636s | hopefully will be more important is |
| 1638s | having Synergy in your party |
| 1641s | um |
| 1641s | so if if |
| 1643s | um I mean we we've actually solved this |
| 1645s | problem it's not a thing but like |
| 1646s | hypothetically if this was a problem |
| 1648s | this would be an example of porous |
| 1650s | energy |
| 1651s | um there's uh a primalists can't I think |
| 1655s | it's primeless maybe like Rogues can |
| 1657s | like strip bleeds off targets can like |
| 1660s | consume the bleeding stacks on a Target |
| 1662s | to do something |
| 1664s | um so quite often what you'll do is |
| 1665s | you'll focus on setting up a large |
| 1667s | quantity of low power bleed Stacks to |
| 1669s | consume them all quickly |
| 1672s | but um then so if you have someone else |
| 1674s | who's relying on using uh very powerful |
| 1676s | bleed Stacks to deal damage and you're |
| 1678s | consuming their bleed Stacks it would be |
| 1680s | like sort of anti-synergistic |
| 1682s | um and |
| 1685s | I I think that things like that it would |
| 1689s | be like bad for your party or whatever |
| 1691s | and um obviously I guess so it's |
| 1696s | like |
| 1697s | I don't know It's tricky to quantify |
| 1699s | really exactly what that means |
| 1702s | um |
| 1703s | can also turn it up there I yeah I think |
| 1705s | it should be viable and possible to play |
| 1707s | with a support in your party |
| 1709s | um and I think that should come in many |
| 1711s | different ways like |
| 1712s | um I I think this should be possible to |
| 1715s | play |
| 1716s | um as like uh uh |
| 1720s | like a spring and form support |
| 1723s | um with like you're you're bringing like |
| 1724s | spring minions and spring and form and |
| 1726s | you're trying to play like shielding up |
| 1728s | your friends and and using the heels |
| 1730s | from your from your spring into like |
| 1731s | healing wind and things constantly and |
| 1733s | stuff like that like |
| 1734s | um |
| 1735s | I I and all the way to things where |
| 1739s | you're you're more about care more about |
| 1740s | buffing your allies or you care about |
| 1743s | like an acolyte support where you're |
| 1745s | specifically focused on like cursing |
| 1747s | people and |
| 1749s | um maybe that's that's the whole deal so |
| 1750s | your your whole form of support is not |
| 1753s | about actually dealing damage yourself |
| 1754s | but you're like I'm gonna put curses on |
| 1757s | people and uh make that be my like like |
| 1760s | a team of three three melee people and |
| 1762s | like uh uh curse Bill where they're |
| 1765s | hitting with bone bone Chris really |
| 1766s | quickly and that's like the primary form |
| 1768s | of your support is you're just helping |
| 1770s | your melee party do better so having |
| 1771s | those synergies is more important than |
| 1775s | um the the the like holy trinity |
| 1778s | composition of the bill where you like |
| 1779s | tank uh DPS support things like that |
| 1782s | like we're less interested in forming |
| 1783s | those relationships and more just |
| 1786s | um did you find some way to increase |
| 1788s | your group's Power by making things that |
| 1791s | work together nicely |
| 1799s | uh can you tell are you using Havoc |
| 1802s | physics package with your Unity engine |
| 1804s | no we're not |
| 1807s | all the major packages like that |
| 1810s | um that we're using show up in the |
| 1812s | splash screen when you first start the |
| 1813s | game |
| 1819s | um |
| 1821s | and some of them not because we even |
| 1822s | have to |
| 1828s | can we expect you all to go nuts with |
| 1830s | more squirrel based uniques nice that's |
| 1832s | what you did there I I mean |
| 1835s | too much of a good thing you know |
| 1840s | I could see I could see a couple more |
| 1842s | coming in |
| 1844s | um |
| 1848s | I I I'd be surprised if any time even |
| 1851s | remotely soon but maybe eventually we |
| 1854s | see like you open your your your |
| 1856s | character sheet it's just like a bunch |
| 1859s | of squirrel themed items your entire |
| 1861s | character sheet I I think that's |
| 1864s | um |
| 1865s | not overly likely to happen you know |
| 1870s | but uh but possible I guess |
| 1877s | uh so other than what we already know |
| 1879s | about adaptive melee and other attacks |
| 1881s | yeah so um |
| 1883s | it's just a quick note on that it's just |
| 1885s | that we're removing we're we're adding |
| 1888s | the ability to have |
| 1890s | um damage types damage stats added |
| 1893s | damage stats appear on items without an |
| 1897s | element previously all added damage |
| 1900s | stats needed to have an element so |
| 1903s | um the elements are these seven things |
| 1905s | here |
| 1906s | and I guess element that damage type the |
| 1909s | problem is using some damage type and it |
| 1910s | refers to two different things |
| 1912s | um |
| 1914s | and we use the term Elemental for these |
| 1916s | three things which is why element is |
| 1917s | confusing when it's talking about all |
| 1918s | seven but anyways so you see how this |
| 1919s | says melee physical 101 melee physical |
| 1922s | damage that physical is going to drop |
| 1925s | um and so it's just gonna be one-on-one |
| 1927s | melee damage |
| 1929s | um some of you went to the question do |
| 1930s | you guys plan on having a lot of Buffs |
| 1933s | and Nerfs by the release of 0.9 or |
| 1935s | intend to balance more next patches |
| 1937s | there will be quite a few Buffs and |
| 1938s | Nerfs |
| 1939s | um some of those just are incidental bug |
| 1942s | fixes that um like like there's I don't |
| 1945s | know a couple dozen nodes that just |
| 1946s | weren't doing anything apparently |
| 1949s | um we've done we've done an entire game |
| 1951s | on it so um |
| 1954s | uh QA staff has an unreal job of |
| 1958s | tackling where they've gone through and |
| 1960s | tested every single node of every single |
| 1963s | ability in the entire game |
| 1965s | um and explicitly check that it |
| 1967s | functions in relation to every other |
| 1968s | node of every other ability in the |
| 1970s | entire game |
| 1971s | um and so a lot of stuff that came out |
| 1973s | of that was just like there were certain |
| 1975s | nodes that just like you put one point |
| 1977s | in and it does the exact same thing it's |
| 1979s | putting 10 points in |
| 1981s | um there were some notes that just |
| 1983s | didn't work like there's there's lots of |
| 1984s | little things and they're like subtle |
| 1986s | hidden things that's so hard to tell and |
| 1989s | the only way you can tell really is is |
| 1991s | with |
| 1992s | um tools enabled or if you're like |
| 1994s | really really looking |
| 1997s | and most people aren't really really |
| 2000s | really looking for it type thing |
| 2002s | um |
| 2004s | so yeah there's there's some sort of |
| 2005s | like incidental Buffs and Nerfs that are |
| 2007s | gonna happen from just bug fixing |
| 2009s | um and then on top of that we do we do |
| 2011s | generally like to take a pass at |
| 2012s | balancing in general if there's certain |
| 2015s | builds that are underperforming pulling |
| 2016s | them up a little bit if there's certain |
| 2018s | builds that are |
| 2019s | um |
| 2021s | I'd say extremely powerful and unfun to |
| 2025s | play those are the really problematic |
| 2027s | ones |
| 2028s | um and so we take a shot of those |
| 2029s | generally too |
| 2031s | um |
| 2032s | sometimes we're just trying to make the |
| 2034s | build more fun by removing some sort of |
| 2036s | like |
| 2037s | um Mandatory Action you have to take to |
| 2039s | make it function or |
| 2042s | um sometimes it's like there's really |
| 2044s | subtle things too so there can be and |
| 2046s | sort of indirect fixes for things like |
| 2047s | that I guess |
| 2049s | um there was an issue where |
| 2052s | um |
| 2054s | I can't read the exact thing I guess |
| 2056s | this is this isn't this isn't what |
| 2057s | actually happened but I'll give an |
| 2059s | example of a scenario that's related |
| 2062s | um and it makes the point well |
| 2064s | uh extinguinous was for a while the only |
| 2067s | item that would actively force your |
| 2069s | health to a low Point |
| 2071s | um to enable a low life play style build |
| 2073s | really easily and |
| 2076s | um |
| 2077s | if you didn't have easy access to that |
| 2079s | you could you could spend a long time |
| 2082s | before your build came online or be |
| 2084s | forced to play another character until |
| 2085s | you got that item or be forced to play a |
| 2087s | different build and switch over which |
| 2089s | are which are really not things we |
| 2090s | wanted so we added in |
| 2093s | um |
| 2094s | two more items that come a lot earlier |
| 2096s | in the game in the form of a different |
| 2097s | chest that's just a weaker version of it |
| 2099s | that's acolyte only and Boots as well |
| 2102s | that perform a similar function and it's |
| 2103s | not actually why any of that happened |
| 2105s | and |
| 2106s | fudging the story to prove a point of an |
| 2108s | example but things like that do happen |
| 2115s | the chest is actually because we |
| 2117s | switched to having class specific chests |
| 2119s | and |
| 2122s | um it's kind of related because there |
| 2123s | were issues where acolytes were having a |
| 2125s | tough time getting it too late so it's |
| 2127s | half true |
| 2132s | all right |
| 2135s | it's getting better it's getting better |
| 2136s | I feel like there was a lot of mods that |
| 2138s | were built up on the on the monolith |
| 2141s | that were just a little too much for me |
| 2142s | I died a couple times and they went away |
| 2144s | and now we're okay |
| 2145s | foreign |
| 2148s | not for us that's okay |
| 2154s | what else do we got a couple more |
| 2156s | questions here |
| 2157s | oh as far as just bouncing Joe we are |
| 2159s | are also going to take just a a normal |
| 2162s | balance pass on things before we launch |
| 2164s | it |
| 2165s | um which which does have to do with like |
| 2168s | multiplayer balance and like the |
| 2170s | cooldown recovery stuff I was talking |
| 2171s | about before and and there's all sorts |
| 2173s | of little things here and there that |
| 2174s | need to get balanced and touched on and |
| 2175s | just as as people play more and we see |
| 2177s | more things evolving and we learn more |
| 2180s | about the game and we release new items |
| 2181s | and things like that like all the |
| 2183s | balance effects on the other things |
| 2185s | all right next question when multiplayer |
| 2187s | comes out our current characters won't |
| 2190s | be able to go into multiplayer true well |
| 2193s | a similar thing happen from multiplayer |
| 2195s | to 1.0 release or will we need to |
| 2197s | re-roll at release as well |
| 2202s | this subject to change however the |
| 2204s | current plan which I expect to be stable |
| 2208s | is that |
| 2210s | um characters created at in the live |
| 2213s | released version of the game when |
| 2215s | multiplayer is live so when 0.9 releases |
| 2219s | um will be playable in 1.0 however they |
| 2223s | will likely be pushed into a separate |
| 2227s | cycle a separate environment so you will |
| 2231s | um if it's sort of the use Poe terms |
| 2233s | standard leak so they'll go into |
| 2235s | standard leak and they'll go into |
| 2238s | um a persistent pool of characters that |
| 2241s | will that will grow as time goes on |
| 2244s | um the other two terms non-latter you |
| 2247s | know like like pretty straightforward |
| 2248s | stuff that's uh sort of a concept that's |
| 2250s | pretty ingrained I think in the genre at |
| 2252s | this point |
| 2253s | foreign rage |
| 2257s | enraged half out seems bad when you have |
| 2260s | calling so increase health is not |
| 2261s | terrible |
| 2273s | so yeah if you want to play on the new |
| 2276s | ladder when 1.0 launches you'll need to |
| 2278s | start new characters |
| 2280s | um but for people that don't care about |
| 2281s | that or just want to keep with their |
| 2282s | characters they'll still have access to |
| 2283s | them that's that's the goal that's the |
| 2285s | plan I I the way we've designed |
| 2287s | everything something would have to go |
| 2289s | pretty colossally wrong to make that not |
| 2291s | be the case |
| 2292s | um and the reason I'm just being kind of |
| 2293s | like |
| 2296s | non-committal about it is because |
| 2297s | sometimes things do go wrong that was |
| 2299s | sweet the guy just stopped the cliff |
| 2301s | that was great |
| 2314s | I wonder if there's any room to craft on |
| 2317s | our current gear I guess it's just any |
| 2319s | four-dimensional and and space available |
| 2321s | let's take a quick look |
| 2325s | nope this button I had to move it from |
| 2328s | my normal key |
| 2330s | a little while ago do we have anything |
| 2333s | here |
| 2333s | a little forger potential |
| 2336s | oh we can we can touch some stuff up |
| 2338s | we're in like T3 T4 gear oh let's see |
| 2341s | what we got here |
| 2346s | oh my face is oh it's on the oh no Mike |
| 2350s | what have you done |
| 2353s | oh |
| 2354s | just oh ruining everything |
| 2358s | oh it's way too big now oh no |
| 2363s | yeah better but it's not right okay |
| 2366s | we're just gonna I'm just gonna do a |
| 2367s | little quick little zombie all right I'm |
| 2368s | struggling with with |
| 2370s | um |
| 2370s | survive in a touch let's |
| 2373s | you know what just a little bit more |
| 2376s | during threshold we'll take us |
| 2379s | a little bit further |
| 2383s | void residents are doing oh oh yeah |
| 2386s | let's go |
| 2388s | one |
| 2389s | we take those we take those here |
| 2396s | endurance yep let's get some of that all |
| 2399s | strength there'll be a little bit of |
| 2400s | armor too on it |
| 2401s | pretty sure something's still the summer |
| 2403s | move speed hello |
| 2406s | armor hello more move speed hello |
| 2414s | armor |
| 2415s | take that |
| 2425s | it's our fizzer is like |
| 2428s | plenty it's good boy damage |
| 2436s | oh it's worth a shot right |
| 2438s | [Laughter] |
| 2445s | our physical is pretty high I mean I can |
| 2447s | almost tend to re-roll that a little bit |
| 2448s | but |
| 2449s | [Music] |
| 2450s | um |
| 2451s | let's just try and steal some big ones |
| 2453s | why not right now |
| 2455s | we did get the strength crit though so |
| 2457s | that's fine let's see we can see this |
| 2462s | that would have been incredible |
| 2464s | oh we need an amulet |
| 2468s | we need a new amulet that is |
| 2471s | that is a woefully understated amulet |
| 2473s | here |
| 2475s | okay I mean that should help a little |
| 2477s | bit eh |
| 2478s | a few stats here and there |
| 2481s | crafting breakover |
| 2483s | see how that does this |
| 2488s | oh so much more powerful that's |
| 2490s | basically the same whatever though |
| 2502s | we'll take those regardless |
| 2513s | I'm quite kind of haphazard with my |
| 2515s | crafty aircraft materials though so |
| 2516s | don't be quite as Reckless as I am would |
| 2518s | be my advice |
| 2520s | Spy Hunter Alpha |
| 2532s | all right let's find another question |
| 2534s | here |
| 2535s | if I'm gonna die |
| 2538s | might as well go doing what I love |
| 2540s | answering questions |
| 2549s | oh my goodness |
| 2566s | hahaha |
| 2586s | there we go |
| 2589s | that was touching good the whole time |
| 2591s | there |
| 2594s | okay |
| 2596s | slides more questions if you have any |
| 2598s | questions please feel free to ask them |
| 2600s | and put an at last Epoch game in the |
| 2601s | question we gotta reiterate my like |
| 2604s | starting Spiel here a little bit we also |
| 2605s | do stream for charity everything goes to |
| 2607s | charity child displays our charity this |
| 2608s | month we'll do a new one every month |
| 2610s | exclamation mark build in chat we'll |
| 2613s | tell you what I'm playing |
| 2615s | hello |
| 2619s | say hello to me I gotta say hello back |
| 2620s | hello |
| 2622s | dig a straighter |
| 2624s | prosinto |
| 2631s | I'm butchering you horribly but how's it |
| 2634s | going bud |
| 2635s | how you doing |
| 2637s | all right we'll be able to copy our |
| 2638s | multiplayer characters into offline mode |
| 2640s | obviously not the other way around yes |
| 2642s | obviously not the other way around but |
| 2643s | it does get asked quite a bit which is |
| 2646s | um why it is important to clarify so |
| 2648s | thank you for clarifying um moving your |
| 2649s | characters from online to offline |
| 2654s | Maybe |
| 2656s | it doesn't have much in the way of a |
| 2658s | gameplay implication |
| 2660s | there's a bit of a like |
| 2663s | okay I'm gonna like practice my crafting |
| 2665s | offline |
| 2667s | um element to it that's a little tricky |
| 2669s | and like |
| 2671s | um |
| 2673s | like you suddenly get weird like |
| 2677s | experimentation systems and tools that |
| 2680s | require you to copy your character from |
| 2681s | online to offline things like that but |
| 2682s | then if you don't have that ability it's |
| 2684s | just a manual entry which kind of sucks |
| 2687s | um |
| 2689s | It's Tricky and there's already tools |
| 2691s | that that use uploading your save file |
| 2693s | it's a great effect which I which I I |
| 2694s | think are wonderful |
| 2696s | um |
| 2697s | so it's it's a tough thing to say yes or |
| 2700s | no to and we haven't made a decision on |
| 2701s | it yet |
| 2702s | um I think it would be a positive thing |
| 2704s | overall |
| 2708s | um |
| 2709s | but we haven't I haven't really landed |
| 2711s | on it yet it's not it's also extra |
| 2713s | functionality |
| 2715s | um |
| 2716s | it's not terrible to do because it's |
| 2718s | really just take the like is the single |
| 2720s | player multiplayer clients to the same |
| 2721s | client so it's just like take them out |
| 2723s | to their character you're playing that |
| 2725s | all that data that you can download |
| 2726s | anyways because it's just your character |
| 2727s | and just run it through the save |
| 2729s | function that already exists for single |
| 2731s | player so it's not terrible to do it's a |
| 2732s | little bit of extra back-end stuff that |
| 2733s | needs to be done for it |
| 2738s | but realistically right now because |
| 2743s | um |
| 2743s | because of the way multiplayer Works |
| 2744s | your characters save never actually |
| 2746s | fully oh it might make it onto the |
| 2748s | client |
| 2751s | not the same way it's a little different |
| 2754s | so maybe I'm gonna give you a maybe uh |
| 2757s | corruption right now is is at 50. I am |
| 2761s | so good at this I'm level 83 you know a |
| 2765s | little break here |
| 2768s | do I have any passive points though |
| 2776s | what about the performance what about it |
| 2777s | we're gonna be |
| 2779s | um |
| 2779s | we've got any performance updates coming |
| 2781s | through there's all sorts of stuff we've |
| 2782s | done in that in that past that I was |
| 2784s | talking about earlier about the entire |
| 2786s | game pass that QA did they also checked |
| 2788s | every single uh scene in the entire game |
| 2790s | every single level every single zone |
| 2793s | um check it for uh like bugs |
| 2798s | um |
| 2798s | like uh visual obstruction overhangs |
| 2802s | um checked it for |
| 2805s | uh |
| 2807s | uh performance there's like there's all |
| 2810s | sorts of new tools that were developed |
| 2811s | recently by one of our technical artists |
| 2812s | that are just so great to have ding |
| 2815s | there we go love it thank you very much |
| 2818s | someone hello headless Hunter subscribed |
| 2821s | thank you very much welcome to the party |
| 2822s | hope you're having fun |
| 2824s | stick around I might learn something |
| 2828s | I doubt you will though I mean |
| 2831s | I got I got nothing to teach here |
| 2835s | but um yeah they was I saying just for |
| 2838s | that |
| 2842s | same things stuff and things |
| 2850s | here we go |
| 2854s | oh my face |
| 2856s | it hurts Avalanche my one weakness how |
| 2859s | did you know |
| 2861s | I want to open the window it gets really |
| 2862s | hot and you want to do this |
| 2874s | because I hate wearing my constricting |
| 2877s | suit at the office oh |
| 2883s | all right another question sorry if this |
| 2885s | has been asked before that's okay it |
| 2887s | probably has we'll be happy to answer it |
| 2889s | again no problem |
| 2891s | um will there be an alternative way to |
| 2893s | level once you've finished the story on |
| 2895s | a character uh kind of yes kinda no |
| 2899s | um we're sticking with the same system |
| 2900s | we have now which there is a |
| 2903s | um a way to augment your subsequent |
| 2905s | leveling process through the use of |
| 2907s | dungeons |
| 2908s | um it's it's not quite as effective at |
| 2912s | the job as we had hoped and were we're |
| 2914s | still looking at improving that |
| 2916s | experience and um increasing the ability |
| 2918s | to which you can augment your leveling |
| 2920s | process through dungeons |
| 2925s | um |
| 2925s | this sword looks so cool and like this |
| 2929s | is the version in here I don't think it |
| 2930s | is |
| 2931s | it's not in here yet |
| 2933s | the |
| 2935s | what is it is yeah |
| 2939s | yeah so subtle yeah |
| 2943s | yeah love it anyways |
| 2945s | um |
| 2955s | necro red small charm we'll take it |
| 2957s | small Idol |
| 2963s | um yeah so so the the with the dungeons |
| 2966s | if you're unaware you can go into a |
| 2968s | dungeon |
| 2969s | um and dungeons all have |
| 2972s | um storyline skips so for example if you |
| 2975s | go into temporal sanctum |
| 2976s | um it spits you out at the end of time |
| 2980s | um basically so it's pretty sure oh no |
| 2983s | it's um |
| 2985s | the woods the woods drops you at the end |
| 2987s | of time |
| 2988s | yeah you you um |
| 2992s | no not so far Bastion |
| 3007s | Wow Mike |
| 3009s | um so you're coming through the game |
| 3010s | here |
| 3011s | um if you're unaware this is where |
| 3013s | chapter a starts |
| 3015s | um after the prologue uh so it's out |
| 3018s | here you have a few questions here then |
| 3019s | you start coming along here |
| 3021s | um chapter B starts in here I think this |
| 3023s | is where chapter B starts |
| 3026s | I think uh which you all know is chapter |
| 3028s | three |
| 3030s | um |
| 3031s | and then uh you can take a detour up |
| 3034s | here uh to light this Arbor when you |
| 3036s | complete like this Arbor this spits you |
| 3038s | out it jumps you all the way to the end |
| 3040s | of time skipping all of this |
| 3043s | um |
| 3044s | which |
| 3046s | skips quite a bit of the storyline so |
| 3049s | like all three of the dungeons that are |
| 3050s | in the game right now do have storyline |
| 3051s | skips and they let you um one of the One |
| 3055s | lets you jump right to the end the last |
| 3056s | chapter basically |
| 3059s | yeah and they'll just they'll just help |
| 3062s | a little bit |
| 3064s | to speed up that leveling process now |
| 3066s | there's there are some issues with |
| 3068s | um |
| 3070s | the like the difficulty uh with early |
| 3073s | level characters especially with that |
| 3075s | lightless Arbor dungeon specifically |
| 3077s | that one uh low levels and um |
| 3081s | so there's a few there's a few changes |
| 3083s | that need to get made there to make it |
| 3084s | play better and feel better |
| 3086s | um then on top of that in multiplayer |
| 3089s | um rushing someone in multiplayer is |
| 3091s | unbelievably easy and efficient |
| 3095s | um so if you've got a friend who's |
| 3096s | already uh already at endgame uh getting |
| 3100s | there yourself takes 10 seconds |
| 3103s | like you just jump right there so it's |
| 3106s | you know |
| 3110s | kind of yes |
| 3112s | in a way |
| 3118s | um there are there are elements of the |
| 3120s | storyline though that |
| 3123s | um you will need to complete in order to |
| 3125s | um have a fully finished character so |
| 3127s | like the the quests |
| 3129s | um the quests that give you uh stat |
| 3132s | point or passive points stat points |
| 3134s | actually with the final quest of the |
| 3135s | game right now uh and because the final |
| 3138s | quest the game gives you one to all |
| 3139s | stats it's part of this dexterity |
| 3141s | intelligence are coming from |
| 3142s | um |
| 3143s | and uh you get your passive and idle |
| 3147s | stats so there are eight idle slot |
| 3150s | rewards for Quests for secondary quests |
| 3152s | and um |
| 3154s | uh or side quest sorry and then there's |
| 3156s | 15 pass-a-point rewards for the same |
| 3159s | type of quests and also some main quests |
| 3161s | probably too I don't know exactly where |
| 3162s | they're all located but there are way |
| 3164s | more than eight Quests for idle slot |
| 3166s | rewards that are in the game so you can |
| 3168s | pick and choose the eight that you want |
| 3169s | to do and there are way more than 15 |
| 3171s | passive reward quests in the game so you |
| 3174s | can pick choose the ones that you want |
| 3175s | to do |
| 3176s | um like so here's here's an example I |
| 3178s | still haven't done this Quest yet |
| 3180s | uh it's a side quest it's a pass-a-point |
| 3183s | reward but there are 15 finished passive |
| 3186s | reward quests that I've done so I've got |
| 3188s | all the passive points that I can get |
| 3189s | and you won't actually get a passive |
| 3190s | point from this I should probably update |
| 3191s | the UI to show that you won't get this |
| 3193s | because you're already capped or |
| 3194s | something like that |
| 3197s | make a note Mike |
| 3199s | okay good |
| 3201s | um |
| 3217s | oh we have to pass a point we can do |
| 3224s | thanks for remember |
| 3238s | [Music] |
| 3239s | we got a shout out to in-game chat for |
| 3242s | constantly having one of the most |
| 3243s | helpful and nice communities rare to see |
| 3245s | uh one so decent nearly every hour I'm |
| 3247s | on that's cool man I'm I'm glad you're |
| 3249s | having a good experience in there I |
| 3251s | don't see too many like horror stories |
| 3254s | about that which is great |
| 3256s | um |
| 3258s | the the the and like |
| 3261s | I also rarely see people complaining |
| 3263s | about the mod team in there which is |
| 3264s | really nice to see as well |
| 3265s | um just shout out to you people that are |
| 3266s | doing a fantastic job |
| 3271s | any cool leaks |
| 3272s | yeah sure |
| 3274s | what do you want |
| 3281s | I got a couple things planned |
| 3291s | I really hope you just like asked for |
| 3293s | something that I just have queued up |
| 3294s | it's kind of like it's kind of what I'm |
| 3295s | hoping for here |
| 3297s | foreign |
| 3299s | number two leak okay you want the number |
| 3300s | two league first sounds good okay |
| 3306s | okay Cosmetics win |
| 3310s | that's actually what I'm working on |
| 3311s | right now |
| 3313s | proving to be very difficult to do |
| 3315s | here is updated VFX for a |
| 3319s | uh |
| 3321s | uh the oblate ability yes it's actually |
| 3323s | in spellblade |
| 3324s | um |
| 3325s | take a little Peak |
| 3330s | juice pretty hard got that repeat |
| 3332s | activation shatter strike |
| 3335s | um |
| 3336s | so it's it's Auto recasting itself a |
| 3339s | whole bunch |
| 3344s | I like this one |
| 3347s | Elemental Weapons Anya start |
| 3361s | oh yeah |
| 3362s | that's it |
| 3371s | yeah it's I think it's a really cool |
| 3373s | update |
| 3374s | um |
| 3378s | you like the pretty snowflakes in that |
| 3379s | me too |
| 3381s | so yeah we're there's there's lots of |
| 3383s | abilities that are getting a little |
| 3384s | um a little it's pretty huge visual |
| 3386s | updates on them |
| 3387s | um |
| 3389s | just to just to bring them into our |
| 3391s | modern era of Awesome |
| 3394s | it's a thing isn't it |
| 3408s | I do need I need some more more damage |
| 3411s | output here |
| 3412s | I don't know where we're gonna get that |
| 3413s | from |
| 3417s | but you need a little bit more of it |
| 3421s | should probably be looking for for gear |
| 3425s | oh hey |
| 3426s | hello there amulet with a ton of |
| 3429s | resistances on it a little bit of Mana I |
| 3431s | might craft that to something cool |
| 3442s | how close are we until multiplayer and |
| 3444s | economy trading release |
| 3446s | um |
| 3447s | an unknown duration that I can't share |
| 3450s | with you right now |
| 3453s | so the uh |
| 3456s | I I don't I don't have an update on the |
| 3459s | ETA for multiplayer just yet |
| 3462s | um as for the phrase like economy |
| 3465s | trading release |
| 3466s | um I think you might be expecting a |
| 3468s | little bit more in the uh |
| 3472s | uh trading category then is gonna happen |
| 3477s | maybe not I could be reading into that |
| 3478s | way too much |
| 3490s | hey dude is it necessary for you to keep |
| 3492s | selling copies of the game to get out of |
| 3494s | Early Access I hope this isn't a rude |
| 3496s | question by the way |
| 3497s | um it yeah I I understand the question |
| 3499s | um it's not it's not rude it's totally |
| 3500s | fine even if it was true then I wouldn't |
| 3502s | be offended or whatever but |
| 3504s | um the worst case scenario I just |
| 3505s | wouldn't answer |
| 3507s | um |
| 3509s | I I get I guess this boils down to is |
| 3511s | hypothetically in the scenario that we |
| 3513s | sell zero copies between now and release |
| 3514s | are we okay as a company yeah we're fine |
| 3517s | um |
| 3518s | well like there's no risk of us not |
| 3521s | making it to release |
| 3527s | I mean okay there's always some tiny |
| 3530s | amount of risk right |
| 3532s | um |
| 3533s | but no we're fine it's |
| 3536s | smooth sailing |
| 3539s | um |
| 3546s | memory those are nice if you haven't |
| 3548s | seen one of those before it it um lets |
| 3551s | you start the arena at the halfway point |
| 3554s | um |
| 3555s | between of like what you complete last |
| 3558s | thing so if you completed and a minimum |
| 3560s | of 50 I think so if you completed like |
| 3563s | 400 waves last time it starts you at 200 |
| 3565s | instead of zero which is really nice |
| 3570s | it's always glance it looks fine we're |
| 3574s | gonna go with that |
| 3576s | sounds good well nice to hear you we're |
| 3578s | doing pretty good |
| 3581s | and then like to be fair |
| 3583s | I I say I said answer the last question |
| 3585s | was such confidence I have no access to |
| 3588s | the details of the company financials so |
| 3591s | really I don't know 100 but um |
| 3600s | as far as I'm aware |
| 3602s | everything's totally fine |
| 3609s | two of you |
| 3613s | I'll plus Eight's all attributes that's |
| 3615s | a nice one that's in there |
| 3625s | DPS up a little bit here |
| 3628s | I'm not sure what to do their best |
| 3636s | are we planning to implement an economy |
| 3637s | system similar to PO you're deal with |
| 3639s | you no |
| 3648s | I think I've been pretty clear about |
| 3650s | that |
| 3657s | void res oh we actually have more dress |
| 3659s | caps look at that we're over capped on |
| 3661s | it what did that happen |
| 3664s | where this one we've got oh lightning |
| 3666s | res is down what happened what |
| 3679s | I haven't seen the road map there isn't |
| 3680s | one right now how far down the line uh |
| 3683s | are the unfinished masteries unfinished |
| 3685s | Masters will arrive with 1.0 launch at |
| 3688s | the same time so whenever 1.0 launches |
| 3690s | Masters will be the same day same time |
| 3692s | same patch |
| 3695s | um |
| 3696s | this was it was an interesting decision |
| 3698s | to to get how we got there |
| 3700s | um |
| 3703s | part of it is just where we are in |
| 3705s | development with them and |
| 3707s | um |
| 3710s | like I know it sounds weird but most of |
| 3711s | it was a decision to try and get |
| 3712s | multiplayer out faster |
| 3714s | um it's been been way too 90 a month |
| 3716s | throughout anyways but yeah that's |
| 3718s | um |
| 3719s | we had considered releasing some of it |
| 3721s | 0.9 or something between 0.9 and 1.0 |
| 3725s | um and and I think it'll just hit hit |
| 3728s | hard hit nice and then be a big big |
| 3730s | event at 1.0 and be like here the game's |
| 3732s | finished now we're not finished but |
| 3734s | um it's a complete game now there we go |
| 3735s | that's a better way to put it |
| 3741s | well hello Aaron spoiler time I just did |
| 3744s | a spoiler come on |
| 3748s | maybe later maybe a little bit I've uh I |
| 3751s | don't have a ton lined up today I got a |
| 3753s | couple things but you know |
| 3755s | you missed it |
| 3756s | so I'll show you again real quick just |
| 3759s | for you |
| 3761s | what's through |
| 3777s | what's the whole thing |
| 3781s | gotta get here on time |
| 3787s | oh let's get rid of you |
| 3794s | wild guess after 0.9 is out and smooth |
| 3797s | sales you think |
| 3798s | it's faster to get content patches 3.9 |
| 3801s | to 1.0 oh yeah yeah the time between |
| 3804s | content patches |
| 3806s | um between the last patch and 0.9 is is |
| 3810s | going to be an extreme exception to our |
| 3813s | our development pattern not the norm I I |
| 3817s | do not expect to wait this long between |
| 3820s | patches hopefully ever again this is |
| 3823s | this is this is very much uh |
| 3827s | longer than we we had initially planned |
| 3829s | longer than we had expected all that |
| 3831s | sort of stuff but it is |
| 3833s | um |
| 3835s | super duper not representative of our |
| 3836s | long-term plans for release schedules at |
| 3839s | all |
| 3841s | you know it's not even you come on get |
| 3843s | over there |
| 3843s | keep going |
| 3844s | there we go |
| 3847s | oh |
| 3849s | my mouth is too full I can't chew |
| 3851s | anymore |
| 3867s | okay come on oh my man is hurting |
| 3878s | yeah that's uh it's a bit of a struggle |
| 3890s | there she blows |
| 3893s | you know what I found out today |
| 3897s | before Leslie Nielsen was like the |
| 3899s | prototypical uh comedy straight man |
| 3902s | it was like a serious like |
| 3906s | fantasy action sci-fi drama actor |
| 3910s | um |
| 3912s | I just I got recommended mood today |
| 3914s | Forbidden Planet I'm gonna watch it |
| 3915s | excited to see it |
| 3919s | I mean that's not bad actually |
| 3924s | and Only Could strike avoidance |
| 3938s | and also not terrible |
| 3942s | also not terrible well take it |
| 3945s | was a quick chance that's okay we don't |
| 3948s | care about crew chance |
| 3953s | uh any hints to cosmetic cost |
| 3957s | uh mainly in relation to cosmetic points |
| 3959s | from Kickstarter backers |
| 3961s | um yeah that's a great question we |
| 3963s | haven't uh haven't nailed those down |
| 3964s | quite yet |
| 3966s | um |
| 3969s | I I don't I don't want to make any |
| 3971s | statements about expectations for |
| 3972s | quantities of purchasable with the |
| 3974s | amount of points that we've already |
| 3975s | given out and things like that how much |
| 3977s | those points are going to be worth |
| 3979s | um I I think the the number of points |
| 3981s | will be |
| 3983s | in the ballpark representative of the |
| 3986s | size of those packs if that makes any |
| 3987s | sense |
| 3989s | um |
| 3991s | but that doesn't really mean anything |
| 3992s | without knowing how much what those |
| 3993s | points can buy so yeah it's it's |
| 3997s | uh I don't really much didn't [ __ ] |
| 3998s | share with you on that one sorry |
| 4000s | um |
| 4003s | I I I think it's it's gonna be |
| 4007s | we definitely the points the points of |
| 4010s | the cause the the whole the purpose of |
| 4012s | the Cosmetic um rewards ntx system and |
| 4014s | things like that |
| 4015s | um |
| 4016s | is is really fun to development long |
| 4019s | term right |
| 4022s | um |
| 4023s | and I like |
| 4026s | I assume I'll be involved somewhat in |
| 4028s | those that decision making a little bit |
| 4030s | at least |
| 4031s | um and I think that everyone involved |
| 4033s | with that will |
| 4035s | I don't want to make any too Outlander |
| 4038s | statements here but I I think it'll be |
| 4040s | reasonable I don't think there's gonna |
| 4041s | be anything ridiculous |
| 4043s | um |
| 4047s | yeah |
| 4049s | I know I basically just said nothing in |
| 4051s | like four different ways I'm sorry |
| 4055s | oh we have a good answer for it |
| 4061s | I think you will be able to see here's I |
| 4063s | guess something I think you'll be able |
| 4064s | to see a distinction in flashiness |
| 4068s | between the different |
| 4070s | um price points so like likely things |
| 4073s | that are on the cheaper side will have |
| 4077s | um less extreme visual effects that go |
| 4079s | with it |
| 4081s | um and things that are on on the pricer |
| 4083s | side will probably have have a little |
| 4085s | bit more going on |
| 4087s | um with them so like I don't know maybe |
| 4089s | maybe there's like |
| 4091s | I I guess really examples just look at |
| 4093s | look at the pets that are already there |
| 4094s | and the tiers that are available and |
| 4095s | that's the type of progression I'm |
| 4096s | talking about |
| 4105s | what's that beast king |
| 4115s | well we have a battle pass |
| 4119s | um I there's no immediate there's no |
| 4122s | like design document for a battle pass |
| 4123s | that I've seen or anything like that |
| 4125s | um I can't say it'll be something it'll |
| 4126s | never happen and |
| 4130s | um |
| 4130s | I think it's also important to note |
| 4132s | distinguished like |
| 4135s | I think battle passes get a bad rap |
| 4139s | overall as a like a a catch-all for a |
| 4143s | negative term |
| 4145s | um when in reality there there's a lot |
| 4148s | less |
| 4150s | um |
| 4152s | a lot less negative stuff happening |
| 4154s | there I mean I think there's |
| 4157s | a lot of negative stuff happening there |
| 4158s | as a core system I think there's ways to |
| 4161s | battle passes positively I guess what |
| 4163s | I'm trying to say um I think it's almost |
| 4165s | never done |
| 4167s | um but it does happen and there are |
| 4168s | there are games that do battle passes |
| 4170s | really well when you look at them and |
| 4171s | you're like that's cool that's really |
| 4173s | cool |
| 4174s | um and sometimes they don't even look |
| 4175s | like a battle pass but they really are |
| 4177s | when you boil down what it's doing |
| 4180s | um |
| 4181s | and sometimes they're like they're even |
| 4183s | just free they're even just um it's a |
| 4185s | free battle pass there's no paid version |
| 4187s | of it uh and and you're like that's cool |
| 4190s | that's just a neat way to uh encourage |
| 4193s | varied engagement in the content with |
| 4195s | rewards for completing certain tasks |
| 4198s | um |
| 4198s | and that's cool |
| 4200s | um |
| 4202s | tying power into it |
| 4205s | um and having the discrepancy between |
| 4207s | the free battle pass and a hypothetical |
| 4209s | paid battle pass being extreme it's |
| 4212s | where you start to get issues I think |
| 4215s | um |
| 4217s | so while we don't have anything planned |
| 4218s | I could see there being a way we tie |
| 4220s | something similar to a battle pass in in |
| 4223s | some way in the future and it might not |
| 4224s | even look like you may see it and be |
| 4227s | like oh this is a cool system and buy |
| 4228s | the scenes I'm like that's a battle pass |
| 4229s | you just can't even tell |
| 4231s | um that type of thing might happen but I |
| 4233s | don't know it's it's all that's |
| 4235s | long-term plans at best |
| 4237s | long-term hypotheticals let's call them |
| 4239s | that |
| 4243s | I don't like our armor getting Shred |
| 4246s | I'm not a fan of that in range we don't |
| 4248s | want to enrage |
| 4253s | um yeah the cooldown's not terrible |
| 4255s | go for that |
| 4259s | why is there no Mana leech or Mana pots |
| 4261s | in the game I mean there is Mana leech |
| 4263s | on specific skills |
| 4265s | um why is there no Mana pots and very |
| 4266s | little man leech president man leech |
| 4268s | stats |
| 4269s | um we try and use cooldowns as little as |
| 4271s | possible our primary means of balancing |
| 4274s | and uh regulating skill frequency and |
| 4278s | visual noise from those large flashy |
| 4280s | skills is generally through Mana that's |
| 4283s | our main form of that and being able to |
| 4286s | um and we do sum it through cooldowns as |
| 4288s | well it's part of the reason why there's |
| 4289s | so fuel |
| 4291s | um |
| 4291s | like why cooldown and Mana is such a |
| 4294s | such a difficult stat to get is |
| 4295s | partially because we want the base |
| 4297s | versions to feel good and have the |
| 4299s | maximum potential of it not be too |
| 4301s | extreme |
| 4303s | um I guess what I'm saying is having |
| 4305s | being able to just |
| 4307s | cast something like uh |
| 4311s | what's what's man again it's not cool |
| 4313s | it's meteor navigated I think it's |
| 4314s | mitigated |
| 4315s | um but you'll just like spam meteor |
| 4317s | forever would be a little gross |
| 4320s | all right there's probably some build |
| 4321s | that can do that |
| 4322s | um but you know what I mean like there's |
| 4324s | we try and also use Mana as a way to |
| 4328s | encourage uh skill weaving so where |
| 4331s | you're not just being like okay this is |
| 4333s | my skill I'm a one button bill it's all |
| 4334s | I do and we do have builds like that |
| 4336s | that are available |
| 4337s | um but man is man is quite after the way |
| 4339s | we try and do that so that you're less |
| 4341s | worried about |
| 4344s | um can I use this ability it's more how |
| 4346s | many times can I use this ability in a |
| 4348s | row so things are available when you |
| 4350s | need them for the most part and |
| 4353s | um it's it's |
| 4354s | strategically using them is a part of |
| 4358s | your play pattern and thinking |
| 4363s | is the goal |
| 4372s | don't forget to put that last seatbelt |
| 4374s | gaming your questions I see one here |
| 4375s | that I don't know what it means so I'll |
| 4377s | read it out I'm gonna ask you to |
| 4378s | rephrase it so I can understand you uh |
| 4380s | ever gonna Implement stun b or Bach |
| 4383s | animations ns4 characters |
| 4385s | I don't know what that means |
| 4387s | um please tell me what that means |
| 4390s | hey Mike uh last development update |
| 4392s | communication was dropped September 2nd |
| 4394s | any official communication coming soon |
| 4397s | um |
| 4398s | hopefully |
| 4400s | uh I don't think there's anything I mean |
| 4403s | like like right now |
| 4407s | um no seriously I I don't know of any |
| 4410s | um major Dev updates blogs planned right |
| 4413s | now |
| 4414s | um I I think it's been a while I think |
| 4416s | it'll be good to get one out |
| 4418s | um sooner rather than later |
| 4424s | yeah |
| 4427s | no details sorry |
| 4431s | um new subclasses will not be unlocked |
| 4432s | on the battle pass no new subclasses |
| 4434s | will not be unlocked on a battle pass |
| 4440s | so I shouldn't I shouldn't laugh at |
| 4441s | something like that because I'm sure |
| 4442s | there's there's there that is a thing |
| 4444s | that happens but no um that's not |
| 4446s | something we're planning |
| 4450s | we're like to be clear I just want to |
| 4451s | submit this clearance there's no battle |
| 4453s | passes there are no battle passes |
| 4455s | currently planned |
| 4457s | um I I was merely leaving room for the |
| 4460s | possibility of a battle pass-like system |
| 4462s | that could emerge sometime in the future |
| 4464s | if we decided to |
| 4466s | um and was trying to give examples on on |
| 4469s | how that could be done nicely |
| 4472s | but no we have no plans on a battle pass |
| 4474s | system at the moment |
| 4480s | our our modernization model is is |
| 4482s | incredibly simple |
| 4484s | uh |
| 4486s | there's |
| 4488s | um below average box price and some |
| 4491s | strictly cosmetic only microtransactions |
| 4493s | uh that's about it |
| 4497s | ah |
| 4498s | it's pretty it's pretty it's pretty |
| 4499s | simple |
| 4506s | all right Leslie [ __ ] is surprisingly |
| 4508s | fun on Steam Deck cool I know some |
| 4510s | people have been like getting into work |
| 4511s | and some people haven't been able to and |
| 4512s | some people have so it's interesting to |
| 4513s | hear that at least you are that's cool |
| 4515s | um but I could use some controlled UI |
| 4516s | improvements uh if y'all ever get the |
| 4519s | time I love hybrid controls input scheme |
| 4521s | that incorporates the best parts of Poe |
| 4522s | steam deck and Le steam deck yeah we've |
| 4525s | um we've put literally zero time effort |
| 4527s | thought into the steam deck at all |
| 4530s | um what does work is purely incidental |
| 4532s | luck |
| 4534s | we we've completely ignored it and have |
| 4537s | no intention to support it until uh |
| 4539s | we're a little bit closer to to release |
| 4542s | it possibly after release like it's it's |
| 4544s | not a platform we're paying attention to |
| 4546s | um it's something that we'd love to to |
| 4548s | get more involved with and have be be |
| 4550s | like an action supported platform but we |
| 4552s | don't have the um |
| 4554s | the resources allocated to that at the |
| 4556s | moment it's it's just |
| 4558s | if it's working cool if it's not oh well |
| 4561s | we'll work on it later type thing |
| 4563s | um we just gotta get to launch and |
| 4564s | adding more platforms to our launch |
| 4566s | platforms we'll delay that so it's it's |
| 4568s | it's |
| 4569s | um back burner for now |
| 4571s | I'm glad you have it working to some |
| 4572s | degree I will say also there are a lot |
| 4575s | of incidental things that will improve |
| 4576s | it so just general UI improvements that |
| 4578s | are coming down the pipe will help it |
| 4579s | um General controller support updates |
| 4581s | will help in a ton because that's the |
| 4582s | biggest problem with it right now is |
| 4583s | that there's no we don't have full |
| 4585s | controller support then that is a launch |
| 4586s | feature so there are incidental things |
| 4588s | that will happen to improve that |
| 4589s | experience but it is not something that |
| 4591s | we're focusing on at the moment |
| 4595s | with the change to the change to making |
| 4600s | weapons have adaptive base damage and |
| 4602s | just because we're not calling it |
| 4603s | adaptive anymore the term adaptive's |
| 4604s | getting dropped so it's just generic |
| 4607s | base damage let's call that |
| 4609s | um a generic song term too |
| 4611s | um |
| 4612s | just added melee damage is not a stat in |
| 4615s | the game right now |
| 4617s | um added bow damage is not a stat in the |
| 4619s | game right now added throwing damage is |
| 4620s | not a stat in the game right now we're |
| 4621s | gonna add those stats |
| 4624s | are there any planned changes to Flat |
| 4626s | damage added modifiers |
| 4628s | um so yes they're the basically what it |
| 4632s | is is |
| 4633s | um almost and not all of them there are |
| 4636s | exceptions to this but almost every |
| 4638s | weapon is going to get its implicit |
| 4640s | damage stat converted to the new style |
| 4644s | which means we'll be dropping the word |
| 4645s | physical from most added damage stats on |
| 4650s | weapons and we'll be dropping the word |
| 4652s | adaptive from spell stats as well just |
| 4656s | so so the term adaptive spell damage |
| 4658s | will just become spell damage |
| 4660s | um and so the stat melee physical damage |
| 4663s | is not going away and you can still have |
| 4665s | the stat melee physical damage and it'll |
| 4666s | still appear on |
| 4668s | um affixes and things like that that can |
| 4670s | go on gear so use this this 119 melee |
| 4672s | void damage that's an actual affix on |
| 4673s | this gear |
| 4675s | um this is any trick you can alt tab |
| 4677s | if you're in windowed mode if you're |
| 4679s | playing in a window |
| 4680s | um and it will uh basically separate |
| 4683s | your cursor from what's going on uh but |
| 4687s | the the tooltip system is designed to if |
| 4691s | you alt Tab out of the game it forces |
| 4693s | the tool to stay on the screen |
| 4695s | um so you can move around this is just a |
| 4698s | neat little trick |
| 4699s | um |
| 4700s | so this this physical is going to get |
| 4701s | dropped here so let's be melee damage |
| 4705s | um but this void damage uh will likely |
| 4708s | not get dropped in most instances but |
| 4711s | could appear dropped in some instances |
| 4714s | if we wanted it to |
| 4716s | um so it's more like so we're just we're |
| 4717s | adding new stats into the game and we're |
| 4720s | um |
| 4721s | in a lot of situations converting them |
| 4723s | over but not all of them so there are |
| 4724s | certain weapons that are like the weapon |
| 4726s | clearly looks like it's on fire so it's |
| 4728s | gonna be Melee fire damage it's gonna |
| 4729s | stay Melee fire damage basically all the |
| 4730s | ones that are not physical are keeping |
| 4733s | their damage tight |
| 4734s | and maybe a couple of them that are |
| 4736s | physical or keeping it too but it's it's |
| 4738s | really rare the vast majority of the |
| 4739s | moral is changing to straight damage |
| 4742s | um |
| 4743s | and that will function the same way that |
| 4746s | adaptive spell damage functions at the |
| 4748s | moment |
| 4750s | um as for changing what those modifiers |
| 4752s | are this does increase the power of most |
| 4754s | of those weapon implicits because it is |
| 4756s | the proper damage type such that |
| 4759s | um because I'm dealing mostly void |
| 4761s | damage and suddenly this melee damage is |
| 4763s | adaptive to the it becomes white damage |
| 4766s | on his avoidability so increased void |
| 4768s | damage will increase that whereas |
| 4769s | increased boy damage does not increase |
| 4771s | this physical damage right now so all of |
| 4772s | these stats are getting a little bit |
| 4774s | more powerful in general |
| 4776s | um it's not a huge shift and there |
| 4778s | doesn't need to be a massive balance |
| 4779s | pass there are a couple tweaks that are |
| 4780s | happening as we're going back through |
| 4782s | weapons and we're like okay this one |
| 4784s | gets converted to generic this one |
| 4785s | doesn't this one uh you know like like |
| 4788s | okay well this one gets converted and |
| 4789s | let's let's turn it down by two percent |
| 4791s | or something you know like like there's |
| 4792s | little changes that are happening there |
| 4793s | as well |
| 4794s | um which is just generic balance stuff |
| 4796s | love to see it love to see it |
| 4802s | do something cool try and try and up |
| 4804s | something to like slap a |
| 4806s | maybe get a LP on there you know give it |
| 4809s | a shot right right |
| 4812s | uh are we there |
| 4815s | 850 13 shorts |
| 4825s | oh hey that's a good one I don't really |
| 4827s | care about good chance |
| 4831s | foreign |
| 4833s | any plans for some sort of matchmaking |
| 4836s | process with multiplayer um so yeah if |
| 4838s | you just declared something up if you've |
| 4840s | seen us refer to the term matchmaking in |
| 4842s | previous Communications |
| 4844s | the term matchmaking that we've used |
| 4845s | refers to the server's ability to find |
| 4848s | when you when you're Zone transitioning |
| 4851s | uh to be able to find the proper server |
| 4854s | that your other people in your party are |
| 4856s | on and put you in the same server as |
| 4859s | them or create a new server to spin up |
| 4861s | for the new Zone that you're that you're |
| 4863s | entering if necessary if there's no one |
| 4865s | in that zone yet |
| 4866s | um so when we've used matchmaking in the |
| 4868s | past that's what we mean by matchmaking |
| 4870s | just just a little FYI |
| 4872s | uh as as far as Aaron I just saw your |
| 4876s | comment oh my gosh |
| 4877s | um as far as as far as matchmaking in |
| 4879s | the terms of like open a menu and be |
| 4881s | like looking for group for uh |
| 4884s | temporal sanctum T4 uh need one Healer |
| 4888s | you know like like that that type of |
| 4890s | thing where it's just where it's more of |
| 4891s | an automated system |
| 4893s | um we're not really looking at much |
| 4895s | right now that's that's something that |
| 4897s | might be added on later if we deem it |
| 4899s | necessary uh we we have got some |
| 4901s | feedback that's a little tricky to find |
| 4903s | people to play with in our in the CT |
| 4904s | program right now |
| 4906s | um people are using Discord a lot people |
| 4908s | are using the in-game chat a lot for |
| 4910s | things like that |
| 4911s | um and it's freaking okay but not |
| 4913s | fantastic |
| 4915s | um I know personally my experience with |
| 4917s | things like that is it's never been |
| 4918s | something necessary for me because the |
| 4920s | way I play these games |
| 4922s | um quite often is solo until I've got a |
| 4924s | friend to play with and I play with a |
| 4926s | friend |
| 4926s | um and so like I'm already communicating |
| 4927s | with my friends on some other platform |
| 4929s | anyways |
| 4930s | um |
| 4932s | that's definitely not the only way to |
| 4935s | play at all lots of people love to play |
| 4936s | multiplayer with just random people on |
| 4938s | the internet which I think is a great |
| 4938s | way to connect with people and make new |
| 4940s | friends and |
| 4942s | I definitely have friends still now |
| 4944s | today that I played that I rated in WoW |
| 4946s | with you know 10 years ago more than |
| 4949s | that oh my gosh 15 years ago when did |
| 4952s | wrath come out anyways |
| 4955s | um |
| 4956s | and |
| 4959s | oh yeah so so I I consider being a |
| 4961s | feature we look to add in the future but |
| 4963s | it's not one that we have in right now |
| 4968s | sort of uh maybe feature it's not maybe |
| 4970s | a baby baby bag maybe maybe |
| 4973s | uh can you provide any data on the base |
| 4976s | stats of minions such as the attack rate |
| 4978s | and base damage tankless has uh mined |
| 4981s | some of it but not all |
| 4982s | um |
| 4983s | if you ask really nicely in Discord in |
| 4987s | the ask the devs channel uh very |
| 4989s | specific ones I can go grab a couple for |
| 4991s | you we don't have a big out uh like a |
| 4995s | big sheet of all of them or anything |
| 4996s | like that so I actually have to like go |
| 4998s | and find their model in the game and |
| 5001s | like |
| 5002s | um look through a couple different |
| 5004s | scripts to find what their stats other |
| 5006s | base stats are |
| 5008s | um |
| 5010s | so I I'd be willing to do some but I'm |
| 5014s | not gonna I'm not gonna go uh |
| 5017s | build an output system for the whole |
| 5018s | thing at the moment or um |
| 5022s | probably should at some point |
| 5027s | drink lots of water kids |
| 5032s | might confirms battle pass well yes but |
| 5035s | actually no |
| 5039s | we're not not doing that |
| 5041s | reiterate we have no current plans to |
| 5044s | implement a battle pass system |
| 5047s | super clear uh will your character ever |
| 5050s | be stunned Frozen |
| 5052s | uh will your character ever be stunned |
| 5055s | froze block as far as animations |
| 5064s | instantly missing in that question |
| 5069s | like like animation locking for Block |
| 5072s | animations like I think that's what I |
| 5074s | think that's what it's asking so like |
| 5077s | um if your character blocks an attack is |
| 5079s | there an animation that happens which |
| 5080s | locks you in place for a brief moment no |
| 5083s | I don't think there is I'm pretty sure |
| 5084s | it's just a block happened and that's it |
| 5087s | someone just picked me in the Discord |
| 5089s | I'm not gonna do it right now if that's |
| 5091s | what that was |
| 5098s | oh |
| 5102s | this is look gone he's a totally |
| 5105s | unbroken super stable perfect build boss |
| 5110s | that works in every situation |
| 5115s | um no he's super busted there's um |
| 5117s | learning his abilities is really |
| 5118s | important I'm gonna like get it wrong |
| 5119s | and just get popped at some point here I |
| 5121s | guarantee it |
| 5123s | um but learning which way this beam is |
| 5125s | gonna go I think is the most important |
| 5127s | thing to improve your survivability in |
| 5129s | this so it always travels towards the |
| 5132s | center |
| 5134s | so as I can turn red for a couple |
| 5135s | different reasons |
| 5137s | um either he's doing that big downward |
| 5138s | eye blast that he just did or he's doing |
| 5141s | the sweep and so he notice how he sweeps |
| 5143s | towards the center here and so when I |
| 5145s | saw him start to sweep I moved to the |
| 5147s | outside so that he would sweep away from |
| 5150s | me |
| 5152s | um and I gave some advice on Reddit this |
| 5154s | and I did I said the exact opposite |
| 5156s | thing and I just realized right now that |
| 5157s | I said the exact opposite thing so I'm |
| 5159s | sorry random person I've read it that I |
| 5160s | screwed over completely you moved to the |
| 5162s | outside because he's gonna move to the |
| 5163s | inside |
| 5166s | um and so whenever you start to see him |
| 5168s | like do that that animation where he |
| 5169s | like dips down a little bit with his red |
| 5171s | eye that's the big dip for the for the |
| 5173s | directional blast and that's the the up |
| 5176s | downward blast so yeah those things so |
| 5178s | he's gonna move to the center see there |
| 5180s | um so if I could have got to the outside |
| 5181s | of the far side I would have but there's |
| 5182s | enough room that you just run to the far |
| 5184s | side and you're fine |
| 5186s | uh because I was it was it was recently |
| 5188s | a thread that came up about how you |
| 5190s | can't beat lagon without a movement |
| 5191s | ability because that beam always gets in |
| 5193s | the way |
| 5194s | um |
| 5195s | and it's it's it's learning how it's |
| 5197s | gonna work it's gonna come to the center |
| 5199s | it's not gonna make its means fine |
| 5202s | but if you can if you can move to the if |
| 5205s | you can move |
| 5206s | in the direction that it's coming from |
| 5209s | you can quite often uh get away from |
| 5212s | having |
| 5214s | uh to stop DPS |
| 5221s | and also this little Center fills up |
| 5223s | with how close you are to the next phase |
| 5225s | if you didn't notice that as well so |
| 5226s | like got the full moon phase two |
| 5250s | and like the second phase is a lot |
| 5251s | harder to dodge because you have all the |
| 5253s | waves going |
| 5254s | we also had some interesting bugs happen |
| 5256s | recently in uh multiplayer where people |
| 5258s | were killing the boss so fast and this |
| 5260s | might happen in Singapore too you kill |
| 5262s | the boss so fast that it still triggers |
| 5263s | that you actually kill the boss in wave |
| 5265s | one |
| 5267s | um and it would still trigger uh phase |
| 5270s | two |
| 5272s | uh so you still to complete phase two |
| 5273s | before the boss would even die and then |
| 5275s | it would bug out after that half the |
| 5277s | time and cause horrible problems and we |
| 5279s | just fixed that now so if you do burst |
| 5281s | the DP burst DPS down the boss before |
| 5283s | phase two even starts |
| 5285s | you can skip phase two and three |
| 5288s | entirely |
| 5289s | which I think is cool |
| 5301s | getting stunned there |
| 5307s | let's be complete oh no okay yeah |
| 5309s | there's there's I was I messed that up a |
| 5311s | bit |
| 5312s | it's an example what not to do |
| 5326s | yeah there we go that was textbook right |
| 5328s | there textbook |
| 5331s | oh God knows award for schools yes I can |
| 5342s | if he goes up real high or down real low |
| 5343s | get out of the way oh I went to the |
| 5345s | wrong side |
| 5351s | yeah well I'm boring everybody else |
| 5353s | because my DPS sucks so much |
| 5356s | and I'm not gonna look at chat because I |
| 5357s | will die and we'll do all of this all |
| 5360s | over again |
| 5362s | oh I went the wrong way again |
| 5370s | I thought I was gonna make it |
| 5375s | so adaptive spell damage will just read |
| 5376s | spell damage noted as well yes |
| 5380s | yeah the term the term oh no did I go |
| 5382s | the wrong way completely |
| 5384s | no okay fine the term |
| 5386s | um adaptive will no longer be a term in |
| 5389s | last epoch |
| 5391s | um |
| 5392s | but it will |
| 5394s | but we are using the functionality for |
| 5397s | adaptive |
| 5399s | they go the wrong way I had to go the |
| 5400s | wrong way I'm losing the thread |
| 5402s | it's okay it doesn't sweep that far |
| 5410s | yeah I think it's pretty good come on |
| 5418s | there we go that's how you do it right |
| 5427s | what about increased support for |
| 5429s | throwing damage |
| 5430s | um so usually this question is |
| 5431s | referencing two actual added throwing |
| 5434s | damage on weapons |
| 5436s | um that was perfect there too yeah |
| 5439s | getting it back |
| 5441s | um we're not planning on adding weapon |
| 5444s | based types with added throwing damage |
| 5446s | implicits on them |
| 5449s | um that's really intentionally not |
| 5450s | available |
| 5451s | for the most part but there we go get it |
| 5455s | get it get it yeah |
| 5458s | just like double the lightning res from |
| 5460s | that |
| 5461s | lightning shred wow lighting damage |
| 5464s | yeah we're just we're just gonna get way |
| 5466s | more |
| 5468s | lightning risk can we uh does it show |
| 5470s | here what's the oh it's even a high roll |
| 5472s | in there yeah |
| 5473s | that's what I'm talking about |
| 5476s | let's get some |
| 5477s | um |
| 5479s | double key we'll take it |
| 5485s | uh |
| 5486s | [Music] |
| 5489s | increased support for throwing damage |
| 5491s | yes there will be more throwing damage |
| 5492s | support that comes through |
| 5495s | um |
| 5498s | it's |
| 5500s | some of that will be like class specific |
| 5502s | throwing damage support some of that |
| 5503s | will be generic 200 support |
| 5505s | um there's there's unlikely to be at the |
| 5508s | same |
| 5509s | um weapons with uh added flat added |
| 5513s | throwing damage implicits added to the |
| 5515s | game that's not something we're planning |
| 5516s | at the moment |
| 5518s | just to be clear |
| 5520s | all right |
| 5522s | we did great |
| 5524s | we did great |
| 5527s | I am the butt kicker |
| 5530s | now I can take lightning runs off all my |
| 5532s | stuff |
| 5534s | go over capped we are and Fizz too |
| 5541s | of course there's no lightning rose on |
| 5543s | that gross little pieces |
| 5546s | garbage it's all algorithm on it |
| 5549s | uh Mike |
| 5551s | Mike |
| 5556s | not really |
| 5558s | we could get rid of that cold damage |
| 5569s | oh yeah we have a nice chest that I'm |
| 5570s | trying to make |
| 5572s | play |
| 5583s | maybe we're trying to forge |
| 5590s | might be worth trying to forge let's see |
| 5591s | let's see if we can get something out of |
| 5592s | this |
| 5595s | okay what are we gonna do are we gonna |
| 5596s | start with are we gonna try and roll for |
| 5598s | to preserve the forging potentials we |
| 5600s | try and roll for movement speed we just |
| 5602s | flat put it on there |
| 5604s | uh and |
| 5612s | let's gamble for it |
| 5616s | [Laughter] |
| 5619s | yes so rooted Discovery costs zero |
| 5622s | forging potential so you get you get |
| 5624s | free tiers free T1 uh Africa didn't |
| 5627s | touch the 40 potential at all so we got |
| 5628s | movements which is what we wanted which |
| 5630s | is great uh and we're just gonna stick |
| 5632s | that all the way to five |
| 5634s | what |
| 5638s | uh |
| 5640s | and we didn't use any 400 potential at |
| 5642s | all getting into there I don't know if |
| 5643s | that was all the hopes that were used or |
| 5644s | if someone would cause crits or what but |
| 5646s | wow |
| 5648s | uh all right we'll take that |
| 5651s | um |
| 5653s | okay let's let's get wild with this and |
| 5655s | like try and like seal some of these |
| 5658s | like |
| 5659s | let's try and steal some of these no |
| 5661s | it's not working |
| 5662s | okay let's just go for some Vitality |
| 5664s | straight up ah okay |
| 5666s | well we fell off hard at the end |
| 5671s | it was an epic start though wasn't it |
| 5678s | it's no better than we have already is |
| 5680s | it |
| 5686s | um |
| 5688s | basically do we want Vitality or |
| 5690s | strength and armor I think that's what |
| 5691s | we have is actually about the time to |
| 5692s | better |
| 5696s | so it's so good |
| 5700s | that bug |
| 5702s | let's go this way |
| 5705s | thank you stop and cry 45 stop crying 45 |
| 5710s | stopping Chris stop crying more time |
| 5712s | yeah thank you very much for for sub |
| 5714s | glad to see it glad to hear it |
| 5717s | hope you're having fun |
| 5723s | I will not stop crying |
| 5726s | open the window though because it is hot |
| 5729s | hot too hot |
| 5738s | hey big fan of Lassie Park and recently |
| 5740s | retired rare monster mods empowerment |
| 5744s | system from another game any chance I |
| 5746s | could find refuge in your game |
| 5748s | uh I see a rare monster modifier |
| 5751s | currently are clearly written and too |
| 5754s | understandable to my liking I would |
| 5756s | gladly help you out with that providing |
| 5758s | such cool yet meaningless terms as void |
| 5761s | skinned and Lagoon touched and empowered |
| 5763s | elements sincerely harsh nemesis |
| 5767s | thinly veiled threats aside or threats |
| 5770s | thinly veiled shots aside |
| 5773s | um yeah it's |
| 5776s | we like that's something that we do plan |
| 5779s | on keeping the way it is |
| 5781s | um |
| 5783s | I I think I think I recognize |
| 5787s | recognize you |
| 5789s | and and this is all mostly a joke I |
| 5792s | think |
| 5795s | um but yes yes the keeping those those |
| 5798s | names readable and understandable is |
| 5800s | important they're not quite like fully |
| 5803s | descriptive |
| 5804s | um and I think that it's something that |
| 5806s | does need to be in the game guide |
| 5808s | um I don't think this is |
| 5813s | I don't think they're here yet |
| 5816s | you know no there's not they're not here |
| 5817s | yet it could be monster mods or |
| 5819s | something like that |
| 5821s | uh combat mechanics yeah it should it |
| 5823s | should be in here |
| 5826s | terminology yeah this is that's that's |
| 5828s | definitely something to add to the game |
| 5829s | grade the game guide is good but not |
| 5832s | like great we're like |
| 5835s | it's it's on the right path and I think |
| 5837s | that's the sort of thing that could get |
| 5838s | added to the game but even if the ones |
| 5839s | we have where it's like resists fire |
| 5841s | damage or like resist fire how much fire |
| 5843s | does it resist is it through giving it |
| 5845s | actual resistance is it a less modifier |
| 5847s | what is it how does that interact with |
| 5849s | shred things like that those those are |
| 5851s | those are important questions and having |
| 5852s | the details for advanced players in the |
| 5855s | game guide I think would be really |
| 5856s | useful |
| 5860s | uh Meister grind welcome glad to have |
| 5863s | you here thanks for joining us |
| 5868s | and I just realized I'm still on the |
| 5870s | left where my head is like cropped off |
| 5872s | partially |
| 5873s | oh |
| 5874s | you can see my |
| 5876s | not so lovely hair now |
| 5879s | that always looks weird in my head so I |
| 5881s | feel like I should get a mic |
| 5882s | like a a boom mic or something and like |
| 5885s | are you just like someone that sits on |
| 5886s | the table |
| 5889s | so I can get my hair out of this headset |
| 5891s | because I always hate I always hate how |
| 5892s | it looks on camera on these streams I |
| 5894s | always look back at clips and I'm like |
| 5896s | oh gross that's terrible what are you |
| 5897s | doing like |
| 5907s | sort of tuned in late did I miss the |
| 5909s | multiple update no no multiple update |
| 5910s | sorry |
| 5914s | I'll give you a little here again |
| 5916s | in celebration of our victory over Logan |
| 5918s | I shall share another little little |
| 5920s | tease little teasy tees |
| 5926s | I know I say it every time that happened |
| 5927s | that like run left bug is fixed and I'm |
| 5929s | so happy |
| 5934s | here is a rogue |
| 5939s | um um a medium medium early Rogue set |
| 5941s | for gear |
| 5948s | all right any exciting skill Buffs you |
| 5951s | want to share for point nine we haven't |
| 5953s | really done much of the big |
| 5955s | um |
| 5956s | bounce past stuff yet |
| 5959s | um |
| 5962s | Fury leap I'm pretty sure is getting |
| 5964s | some |
| 5966s | uh |
| 5967s | ability |
| 5969s | tweaks that make it a little bit more in |
| 5971s | line with some of the other movement |
| 5972s | skills there we go there's a tease |
| 5978s | oh will there be MCX available I |
| 5980s | um so I'm working on that right now |
| 5981s | that's that's as soon as I'm finished |
| 5983s | working on it for for point nine |
| 5986s | hopefully that'll be I'll be out with |
| 5987s | 0.9 at the same time |
| 5994s | like as soon as I'm finished working on |
| 5995s | it and that's it's qa's done and we've |
| 5997s | got all that stuff we'll start releasing |
| 5999s | it for the CTS I think as uh like to |
| 6001s | test the program out |
| 6003s | um it'll probably be like a |
| 6006s | I I don't know exactly how we're gonna |
| 6007s | do this but I assume it's gonna be |
| 6008s | something along the lines of like |
| 6010s | everyone gets a thousand cosmetic coins |
| 6012s | to test the system out with and none of |
| 6014s | it is saved and so none of it's |
| 6016s | permanent or anything like that I feel |
| 6018s | like we'll do something like that |
| 6022s | uh is it true that every time someone |
| 6024s | asks about multiplayer release you guys |
| 6026s | intentionally push it back the day by |
| 6027s | one day no because I'd like to release |
| 6029s | it this millennia |
| 6036s | okay let's keep going here |
| 6043s | in the future when all classes are |
| 6044s | complete do you plan on introducing new |
| 6046s | skills if so older skills rotate out |
| 6048s | that's a good question actually |
| 6051s | um |
| 6053s | it's it's possible that old skills could |
| 6055s | work it out because yes like one when |
| 6056s | it's all done we are going to add more |
| 6058s | skills |
| 6059s | um and and there is sort of a point |
| 6062s | where a skill page like this becomes |
| 6065s | excessive you know |
| 6068s | and we have retired abilities in the |
| 6070s | past and do intend to retire more |
| 6071s | abilities in the future too |
| 6074s | um there's even one ability still in the |
| 6076s | game |
| 6077s | but I keep saying we're cutting we never |
| 6079s | do somehow uh one day I'll get you ice |
| 6082s | Thorns one day I'm coming for you |
| 6085s | um but seriously yes uh we do plan on |
| 6088s | adding more there is this this page was |
| 6091s | specifically designed with |
| 6094s | um with room right here for an extra |
| 6096s | ability per class to easily slot in |
| 6099s | um per Mastery and then on top of that |
| 6102s | it was designed such that it could it |
| 6104s | could be it could be shifted a little |
| 6106s | bit here and there to to accommodate for |
| 6108s | some more some more skills to be added |
| 6111s | um there is room in the passive tree |
| 6113s | this one's not |
| 6114s | uh set up proper distributed property |
| 6116s | but this is how most this is how they'll |
| 6118s | all look this is the distribution that |
| 6120s | all Mastery classes will have at launch |
| 6122s | and there is clear spaces for |
| 6125s | um uh two more Mastery abilities to sit |
| 6128s | very nicely here |
| 6130s | that we that we've sort of made room for |
| 6132s | um and let's also room for another one |
| 6134s | here that I think is cheeky but really |
| 6135s | good |
| 6136s | um |
| 6138s | so yeah there's we do plan on adding |
| 6140s | more will we have to rotate some of that |
| 6142s | eventually probably and I think that'll |
| 6144s | happen more so when we come and we're |
| 6145s | like here's a new ability that we really |
| 6147s | want to add because it adds this key |
| 6148s | component and it but it also con it sort |
| 6151s | of overlaps with this other ability a |
| 6153s | little bit hey can we add in |
| 6156s | like take that one that's maybe not as |
| 6158s | as impressive not as cool maybe take it |
| 6160s | and incorporate a lot of the things that |
| 6162s | it does some of the effects that it has |
| 6163s | some of the visuals some of the theming |
| 6165s | some of the feels that it gives into |
| 6166s | another ability or like take pieces of |
| 6168s | it move it around possibly |
| 6170s | um and things like that will happen and |
| 6172s | things like that will continue to happen |
| 6173s | for sure |
| 6174s | um having the the number of skills be |
| 6177s | small enough that it's approachable to |
| 6179s | new players when they can look at it and |
| 6181s | go okay I want to do a cold sorceress |
| 6184s | and I can see very clearly by looking at |
| 6186s | this page that there's these eight |
| 6188s | abilities to choose from cool let's go |
| 6190s | let's try some out |
| 6192s | um |
| 6193s | having that approachability is really |
| 6194s | important to us |
| 6196s | um which is which is part of the reason |
| 6197s | why we've this is how the system we have |
| 6199s | is and and break things up like we break |
| 6202s | each all the skill trees up into |
| 6204s | individual trees to improve |
| 6205s | accessibility we break up the |
| 6208s | um the like hard classing things so |
| 6211s | you're not looking at so you know you |
| 6212s | don't need to take into account Fireball |
| 6214s | when you're playing a void night as a |
| 6216s | possible ability |
| 6218s | um |
| 6219s | and and we try we try to increase the |
| 6221s | accessibility that way and then |
| 6223s | um |
| 6225s | uh while still having tons of depth and |
| 6228s | making things interesting and and all |
| 6230s | those sorts of stuff you know like we |
| 6231s | don't want any there's there's a balance |
| 6232s | there's a fine line balance there and |
| 6234s | adding more skills it's it's |
| 6237s | because you have uh the combination of |
| 6239s | the skills is really what makes a build |
| 6241s | come alive every time you add one more |
| 6243s | skill you're you're multiplying the |
| 6244s | total number of |
| 6246s | um combinations available by a |
| 6248s | pre-picked number |
| 6250s | and |
| 6252s | um |
| 6252s | so we definitely want to add be able to |
| 6254s | add new skills to keep things fresh and |
| 6255s | exciting for for veteran players but |
| 6257s | having the ability to remove older ones |
| 6260s | if necessary is something that we are |
| 6263s | um not gonna be too afraid of something |
| 6266s | that maybe maybe some someone get |
| 6267s | converted into a triggered ability on |
| 6271s | um on a weapon maybe they get turned |
| 6274s | into a a spec version of another ability |
| 6276s | you know things like that there's all |
| 6278s | sorts of stuff we can do to to hide |
| 6280s | abilities elsewhere |
| 6282s | um which already exists so |
| 6284s | um the activatable ability for spriggan |
| 6288s | uh for summon spriggan the healing wave |
| 6291s | healing wind sorry |
| 6293s | was a primal stability was a primary |
| 6295s | Primal stability for |
| 6297s | um quite a while actually |
| 6299s | um |
| 6300s | and then |
| 6301s | uh fire Aura as a triggered ability on |
| 6304s | many uh Mage idols and in passive tree |
| 6307s | that was a primary ability for mage for |
| 6309s | a long time as well |
| 6311s | um |
| 6312s | it was actually a secondary effect on a |
| 6314s | primary ability that was retired close |
| 6316s | enough and so yeah there's there's we |
| 6318s | we've already sort of done this a few |
| 6320s | times with different abilities |
| 6323s | and we'll probably continue to |
| 6326s | but I want them thank you |
| 6329s | all right |
| 6332s | oh I lost my point okay I'll try and |
| 6335s | find where I was close |
| 6342s | I think |
| 6345s | also can you maybe let us know if MTX |
| 6347s | will be able soon |
| 6349s | um it'll come it'll be it'll be publicly |
| 6351s | MTX will be publicly available with |
| 6354s | um |
| 6355s | with point nine is the plan |
| 6361s | that's repeating the question please |
| 6362s | don't spam a question a whole bunch I'll |
| 6364s | get to it I promise |
| 6366s | uh unless I clearly answer questions |
| 6369s | after yours please do not repeat it |
| 6372s | uh is there plans for an auction house |
| 6374s | of some sort or a way to trade still in |
| 6377s | the mix sorry training player from tears |
| 6379s | um |
| 6380s | there is a method planned by which items |
| 6384s | can transfer ownership from one |
| 6386s | character to another or let me rephrase |
| 6388s | that there will be some system in place |
| 6390s | where buy items can transfer from one |
| 6391s | player to another player in some way |
| 6394s | given some restrictions or processes |
| 6397s | there so far unexplained |
| 6403s | foreign |
| 6414s | oh I have a question of wonderful I'll |
| 6416s | read your question could we see a lot of |
| 6419s | this extra art be compiled somewhere on |
| 6421s | the website someday oh it is get ready |
| 6424s | for this uh you guys make a lot of |
| 6426s | beautiful art and I love using them for |
| 6428s | videos about to go through 20 different |
| 6429s | Forum posts to find it all well a lovely |
| 6432s | Community member has done the work for |
| 6434s | you already |
| 6435s | um it worked for us already Andrew Tilly |
| 6438s | has compiled a ton of |
| 6442s | a ton of stuff into a sweet form post |
| 6450s | and it has I'm pretty sure this is this |
| 6453s | is all the info compiled from |
| 6456s | um like development updates uh Facebook |
| 6460s | um like Forum posts and also the stuff |
| 6463s | that's been leaked here |
| 6465s | so I hope I can post this I'm gonna do |
| 6467s | this on the website to post and chat so |
| 6468s | I don't lose my place this time so there |
| 6470s | I just posted that Forum link |
| 6473s | just make sure it's the right one |
| 6475s | yeah |
| 6477s | the lovely picture of me is a bee at the |
| 6480s | front of it |
| 6482s | okay so yeah uh that's that's where that |
| 6485s | you can find you should be able to find |
| 6486s | all of the things that have been |
| 6488s | um leaked or teased on various Platforms |
| 6491s | in that one place |
| 6493s | um |
| 6496s | we do also have a and it's a little out |
| 6499s | of date at this point |
| 6500s | um |
| 6501s | on our website there is also a media |
| 6505s | like a a gin like sort of generic news |
| 6508s | media page where there's like our logo |
| 6510s | and like some backgrounds and you know |
| 6511s | just some like Splash art stuff and |
| 6513s | things like that that are available as |
| 6514s | well |
| 6518s | if you're just looking for |
| 6521s | sort of like last Epoch related Media |
| 6524s | stuff to put a random picture in front |
| 6526s | of something as a splash or I don't know |
| 6527s | what yeah hopefully hopefully that helps |
| 6532s | uh can we have a mic skin for Prime list |
| 6536s | probably not but uh it's cool that |
| 6539s | you're asking for it so thanks |
| 6542s | maybe we'll see uh any plans let us |
| 6544s | change armor skin uh to another one in |
| 6547s | the game uh would that be paid MTX |
| 6550s | um so there will be a system by which |
| 6552s | you can do that through MTX like like by |
| 6555s | um |
| 6558s | like like you'll like this whole page |
| 6559s | has changed but yes or you'll like pick |
| 6561s | an ntx for your armor and it'll replace |
| 6563s | the visual on your character like |
| 6565s | that'll be there but if you're talking |
| 6566s | like like make this piece of armor look |
| 6569s | like some other piece of armor that's |
| 6571s | already in game like a transmog system |
| 6573s | yeah there's |
| 6574s | um I don't know the details of what |
| 6576s | that's gonna look like but we are |
| 6578s | planning something like that |
| 6580s | and we do have the back end available we |
| 6582s | can do it |
| 6590s | well there's a little bit of Dev work |
| 6592s | that needs to be done for that but it's |
| 6593s | it's not immense |
| 6597s | just having an override for a single |
| 6598s | function call so it's not a big deal |
| 6601s | oh |
| 6604s | the the in the in-game UI changes for |
| 6607s | that is the is the biggest part about |
| 6609s | that and having it um |
| 6611s | save to the actual file for the the |
| 6614s | armor piece to be able to like change |
| 6615s | what it looks like so it needs to be a |
| 6617s | new field in the save file for uh |
| 6623s | the schema would need to change that's |
| 6624s | the word I'm looking for all right |
| 6626s | um |
| 6629s | can I talk about the server Network |
| 6631s | infrastructure and all your assistant |
| 6632s | and love hearing about infrastructure |
| 6634s | types I can't really talk about it |
| 6635s | because you probably know way more about |
| 6636s | it than I do |
| 6638s | um so I would be making horrible |
| 6640s | mistakes |
| 6645s | yeah sorry |
| 6648s | uh are you slash the HG taking time off |
| 6652s | for the holidays we'd be traveling um |
| 6653s | yeah we generally closed the studio |
| 6655s | between Christmas and New Year's |
| 6659s | um just |
| 6661s | and like there's there's Skeleton Crew |
| 6664s | around I guess I have a few people here |
| 6666s | and there but yeah and like I've never |
| 6667s | really gone even when I'm on vacation |
| 6670s | you guys probably don't even notice it |
| 6673s | um |
| 6676s | it becomes just such a habit that you |
| 6678s | check your phone and like you just go to |
| 6679s | Discord and |
| 6681s | yeah anyways |
| 6683s | um |
| 6683s | but yes uh there's |
| 6686s | we'll be taking some time off uh over |
| 6689s | between Christmas and years and |
| 6692s | um |
| 6693s | personally I'll I won't be traveling |
| 6697s | um |
| 6699s | I'm I'm still in |
| 6702s | let's let's fight off this pandemic Mode |
| 6704s | come on still happening |
| 6707s | personally and but part of that is you |
| 6710s | know you have a young kid and you you |
| 6712s | really don't want them to get it |
| 6714s | so maybe you get a little overprotected |
| 6716s | but yeah |
| 6718s | I'm not I'm not personally ready for |
| 6719s | traveling yet |
| 6732s | crush crush |
| 6740s | fire Aura was a castle skill as well |
| 6741s | wasn't a |
| 6744s | I believe you |
| 6749s | makes sense |
| 6765s | okay |
| 6767s | one more questions will you have twist |
| 6770s | drops and things when you go live |
| 6772s | hopefully that's that's we don't have a |
| 6774s | system integrator for that just yet so |
| 6777s | um |
| 6778s | no details |
| 6780s | but hopefully yeah |
| 6784s | okay let's go past the bunch there but |
| 6786s | there were no more at Lassie Puck game |
| 6787s | pings in there so I may have missed the |
| 6789s | question if I missed your question |
| 6790s | please feel free to re-ask it |
| 6792s | and I'll do my best to answer it |
| 6795s | in the meantime |
| 6818s | foreign |
| 6821s | [Laughter] |
| 6824s | [Music] |
| 6826s | to get I'll take those |
| 6832s | not what I was hoping for |
| 6835s | so good though |
| 6837s | uh let's up this one see what happens |
| 6842s | nope |
| 6848s | those boots we made Let's up though see |
| 6850s | what happens |
| 6852s | oh he needs foreign obviously needs more |
| 6855s | potential like what are you even doing |
| 6857s | ugh |
| 6865s | always avoid enemies deal increased |
| 6868s | damage yeah you do catch void res |
| 6873s | but for death we're not a big fan of |
| 6875s | America death |
| 6882s | will there be any Poe style ad X Type |
| 6886s | damage modifiers that work on weapon |
| 6887s | skills that don't normally have that |
| 6889s | type of damage or element |
| 6901s | I'm not sure if I understand the |
| 6903s | question but I'm pretty sure we already |
| 6905s | do that |
| 6907s | like |
| 6910s | um |
| 6914s | this might be a bad example because it's |
| 6916s | still this physical doesn't it uh |
| 6923s | okay here's here's uh |
| 6928s | I guess we should do this like here |
| 6930s | here's |
| 6932s | this is a just a physical melee ability |
| 6934s | and the plus 119 melee boy damage |
| 6938s | applies to it |
| 6940s | so yes |
| 6948s | yes |
| 6949s | um ft mask khaki |
| 6952s | yes |
| 6956s | yeah if you have if you have uh your if |
| 6959s | your wand if you cast lightning blast |
| 6961s | and your wand has |
| 6963s | um |
| 6965s | oh no I guess |
| 6968s | I would still do it if you have Plus |
| 6970s | plus 10 fire damage fire spell damage |
| 6974s | it would still apply |
| 6980s | yeah |
| 6983s | generally we so this is kind of what we |
| 6985s | were talking about for us we use the |
| 6986s | term adaptive spell damage for the most |
| 6988s | part we very rarely will have the the |
| 6990s | specific element so that the spell |
| 6992s | damage |
| 6993s | um adapts to the spell you're dealing so |
| 6994s | it it has more synergies with your other |
| 6997s | abilities like increased lightning |
| 6998s | damage in that case |
| 7000s | um and we're doing the same thing to |
| 7001s | most to implicits at least |
| 7004s | um do this on on mainly weapons as well |
| 7007s | but the explicit modifiers do work the |
| 7009s | way you're talking about so yes |
| 7015s | foreign |
| 7024s | also to the person who I just read the |
| 7026s | comment in Discord about the stats for |
| 7029s | the squirrels and wolf if you're still |
| 7030s | listening |
| 7031s | um what stats do you want cause I'm not |
| 7033s | gonna give you all of them do you want |
| 7034s | their health do you want their |
| 7036s | damage like pick pick a couple pick the |
| 7038s | greatest hits of the stats you want |
| 7043s | most of them are probably zero |
| 7045s | almost all of her probably zero |
| 7063s | uh would you guys consider having the |
| 7065s | old Necromancer model as a purchasable |
| 7067s | skin |
| 7069s | uh it's unlikely that we go back to like |
| 7072s | I I think you mean Lich re-perform model |
| 7076s | I think is what you mean there |
| 7079s | um |
| 7081s | but I could be wrong uh as far as |
| 7084s | acolyte model or like are we talking |
| 7086s | like |
| 7087s | Necromancer like before acolyte was a |
| 7090s | thing uh because that one's not coming |
| 7092s | back |
| 7096s | um but full base model character skins I |
| 7098s | don't think it's something that we've |
| 7099s | got planned at the moment I'd say it |
| 7101s | could be something I could we could see |
| 7102s | later but not land |
| 7116s | base damage and attack rate specifically |
| 7118s | but how if they scale with equipped |
| 7120s | weapon attack rate I mean if your weapon |
| 7123s | has increased melee Minion Attack speed |
| 7126s | then it increases their Taxi by the |
| 7129s | percentage that it sends on the stat |
| 7132s | uh |
| 7134s | base damages base damage to their |
| 7135s | abilities which is probably one or two |
| 7140s | that might be different for minions |
| 7143s | actually I'll look that up but yeah put |
| 7144s | it over there |
| 7147s | thank you |
| 7149s | attack rate is probably one |
| 7154s | oh we're getting real close to the end I |
| 7155s | don't have time for another one I really |
| 7157s | wanted to go to another unique here hmm |
| 7165s | I'm really hoping to do that but I |
| 7166s | didn't find any good exalted chess |
| 7167s | beasts |
| 7169s | unfortunate we'll do it next time |
| 7172s | that's our goal next time is to make |
| 7173s | sure we get an Excel chest piece oh I'll |
| 7174s | have a backup one if we don't find one |
| 7176s | so I'll make sure we do it next time for |
| 7177s | sure |
| 7179s | foreign |
| 7184s | could you please explain Sextant |
| 7186s | blocking briefly thanks |
| 7189s | um it's so complicated you don't want to |
| 7191s | know |
| 7193s | I think some attack rates are like |
| 7195s | 0.6875 or something I like the video |
| 7198s | editing skills to test |
| 7200s | finally did I not I actually yeah it's |
| 7203s | I have another one that I had prepared |
| 7204s | but the video it like stops part way |
| 7206s | through and I almost don't want to show |
| 7208s | it so we'll give it we have an after |
| 7210s | hours leak and something happened with |
| 7212s | this video and I don't know why but it's |
| 7214s | super choppy in all shots anyways |
| 7217s | foreign |
| 7225s | oh it's even worse than I thought it was |
| 7227s | oh gosh |
| 7229s | well you can see chunks of new ride |
| 7231s | effects |
| 7233s | hopefully it looks better than that but |
| 7235s | I'm sorry |
| 7236s | I wasn't gonna show that |
| 7238s | yeah a little bit extra there |
| 7242s | all right |
