10s	I'm your host Mike hello glad to be here
13s	glad to have you all with me
17s	we've got a new month and we've got a
19s	new
20s	uh charity
22s	International animal rescue baboom this
25s	is what happens when Mike decides to
27s	make the banner
28s	10 seconds before he goes live
32s	so we're just gonna hop right in and
33s	start playing have some fun
44s	I may have uh I may have played a little
48s	uh a little on the on on the on the week
52s	of the downtime here between streams
55s	not much I didn't I didn't Advance the
56s	storyline at all but I did play a little
58s	bit of monolith got carried a bunch
62s	and so our horribly underpowered
65s	two-handed play dancer can probably
67s	finish the campaign now
69s	laughs
73s	and we might have to dip into the
74s	monolith again to finish it
79s	it's your first time here welcome glad
80s	to have you with us if you have a
82s	question for me please put out last
83s	default game in the question so I see it
85s	stand out a lot better
87s	we're just gonna hang out and have some
89s	fun play some games for an hour or two
91s	hours and uh
101s	you know feels good to be back into the
103s	more normal swing of things with
105s	development
107s	I feel like I feel like we're back in
108s	our groove which is really nice
114s	oh back in the pocket you know
120s	true
121s	uh torfin eventually on this blade
124s	dancer for decent-ish bleed build ah
127s	Maybe
129s	who wants a decent build come on where's
132s	the fun in that huh
137s	probably
141s	lots of crit on there we are we do we do
143s	so we're pretty focused on crit right
145s	now not not dots we've taken a bunch of
148s	nodes that are like your dots are worse
150s	and we have a ton of crit stuff
153s	see I've got got a woman flash rocking
154s	now for that cred avoidance
158s	uh person that's playing with handed me
160s	this which is pretty sweet
162s	you know get that leech
168s	Kane thank you for editing the charity I
171s	appreciate that
174s	hey quick question loving the game but I
176s	have over 190 levels in Prime list with
179s	no Scurry drop are you all planning to
181s	alter drop rates at some point hard to
183s	assemble a build at this point I mean so
185s	the
186s	um
188s	I mean you can you can play wolves
189s	without Herald like it does it does work
192s	as wolves without Herald
194s	um it's a pretty rare item
196s	um I think the item faction system will
198s	really help with targeting specific
200s	items like this uh specifically because
203s	you have both in the both sides will
205s	will be able to Target things a lot
206s	easier
208s	um because if you're in
210s	um
211s	circle of Fortune you can just you can
214s	use prophecies and increase drop rates
216s	in general to to Target a lot better if
218s	you're in Russian skills you can just go
220s	buy it so so yeah like we don't we
223s	actually tend to lower drop rates
226s	um over overall base drop rates but with
228s	those when those new features come in
230s	um at the same time as we do the lower
232s	it'll be overall easier to find the
236s	piece you need for your build
240s	um
241s	something that'll be really good
252s	we've got Rings standing out a tomb and
255s	Minion health
260s	we are pretty low on health right now
261s	though so I should probably be looking
263s	at that and that does a bunch of help on
265s	it
266s	I'll sum at least
272s	it's okay when we get low we just
274s	disappear
275s	it's our whole game plan
279s	it's a terrible gameplay I'm doing copy
281s	it
287s	all right
290s	is there an estimated timeline on fixing
292s	the jewelry box I don't know I don't
293s	have any information on specific
294s	timelines for bug fixing
297s	um
297s	I know that one is being worked on
301s	um but I don't I don't know when uh the
304s	I I think there's I think there's
306s	timeline information in the actual patch
308s	notes uh if you go back not the most not
311s	the tiny little hot fix that we did but
313s	the the more recent or the
317s	uh
318s	G or G2
321s	will have uh it says it says something
324s	like two weeks from that point or
325s	something like that
326s	but I don't know
330s	yeah
332s	I mean it's cool but uh I don't know
335s	what we're looking for
337s	pick it up just did something's open
338s	though
348s	maybe we'll go try and fight you or do
350s	we have a key I don't think we have a
351s	key
354s	when the trade system drops are we able
356s	to put up items um we get now on the
359s	market yeah so the the items that will
361s	be unavailable to post on the bazaar are
364s	items that have an item faction
367s	requirement so if the item says on it
370s	like so the items will get like see this
372s	requires level 60 items in in their
374s	place will get requires level or
376s	requires circular Fortune rank circle of
379s	Fortune rank three for example and that
381s	item will not be tradable at the bazaar
384s	um and then so if you get an item that's
386s	like requires Merchant Guild rank two
387s	that it will not be tradable level
389s	desire so items that are untagged with a
392s	item faction rank requirement
396s	we'll all be tradable and as you can see
399s	all of your items are currently untagged
413s	I just like heal through this yeah I can
415s	because I got I got those sweet gloves
417s	and they'd be healing
424s	you keep telling me to submit I don't
427s	wanna
449s	oh all right uh yeah don't forget to put
452s	at last Epoch game in the question so I
454s	see it easier uh but you see one here hi
456s	will there ever be support for a PS5
460s	um yeah it's okay in our dance this ever
462s	is a long time we don't have any
465s	um active plans for specific console
467s	releases right now
469s	um we do want to go and have consoles uh
473s	be a platform we release on at some
475s	point
476s	um do we know when that's gonna be at
478s	all no do we have any information on
480s	when that's gonna be no
482s	um
484s	we haven't put zero work into any sort
486s	of console release whatsoever
488s	it would it would be really good and I
490s	think it's something that we will
491s	probably eventually do
493s	um
495s	but we just we just don't have the we
497s	don't know the time pre-launched to put
499s	any any resources behind that
528s	all right fair enough I had forgotten
530s	those uh it was on the way also kudos
533s	for going live
535s	the minute a new Poe League went live
538s	it's a horribly out of touch I am with
540s	pu I had no idea League was going live
542s	right now I knew it was like starting
543s	around now but uh I had no idea it was
547s	like right now
549s	this is not the first time I made that
550s	mistake
556s	it's fine
570s	right I think it's fine
576s	I'm I'm totally happy for a a chill
579s	stream you know maybe just a little bit
581s	relaxed I'm totally fine with that
592s	are you guys going to remove battery
593s	water from the game it needs to be done
595s	uh
597s	uh we're not
599s	astronaut is a great item
601s	um I I think there's
603s	it has
605s	uh it doesn't have enough competition in
608s	the defensive slot uh offhand category
614s	so I I think removing it is uh
618s	uh
619s	you know
621s	the wrong tool for the job
635s	foreign
644s	how much more time to get Lassie [ __ ]
647s	hoodies
648s	excuse me hoodies in the store
651s	hopefully soon I really want more merch
652s	I've seen mock-ups for hoodies
659s	have died so you could live
663s	now feel the unending you're asking for
666s	those for two years now I'm ready to
668s	wear one while gaming hey man I've been
670s	asking for those for just as long
676s	hello happy Friday happy Friday Master
678s	Sword how you doing
681s	what currencies will the bazaar use gold
684s	gold
687s	hey man just tried the game the other
689s	day loving it uh awesome thanks do you
692s	plan to add was to your controller sport
694s	Well Control Sports already in so so no
696s	we don't plan to add control of sport
698s	because it's already there
700s	um
701s	do you plan to add wozzi sport it once
703s	you have control of support it's not
704s	that hard to add but that's funny
711s	um but I we don't have any specific we
713s	don't have like a task set out or a plan
715s	to add it specifically
717s	um
718s	I mean put put a suggestion on the on
720s	the forums and uh you know maybe we can
722s	get something added in
732s	adding PVP features like India before
734s	would be great for Less ebook do you
735s	think about doing it yeah we this is a
739s	good chance we will eventually add PVP
742s	um it's not on the like
744s	let's add a right now list it's not on
747s	the 1.0 feature list it's uh it's one of
749s	those things that I think a lot of
750s	people would really enjoy but it's not
752s	what we consider part of the
754s	um required features to launch the game
757s	hopefully soon we we did some tests with
760s	PVP I I'm stalling for this boss and I
762s	know I'm gonna get my ass Santa to me
763s	and I want to answer some questions here
765s	I kind of want to get one that I can
766s	talk to you while I'm playing it
768s	um and you can't speak too much on this
770s	but how do you feel about current state
772s	of summit Abomination both balance and
774s	visuals I love the model so much but man
775s	this bone blow it out of the water in
777s	terms of animations and moveset super
778s	smooth
781s	oh yeah I think this might be like I'm
784s	gonna coin a new term here probably not
786s	but uh the Barney Stinson effect you
788s	know new is always better
790s	and I I think we're we're getting to
793s	that point where
794s	um the the the new one like we've
798s	we're better at doing these things now
800s	than we used to be
802s	um we've got new tech that we are that
804s	we're able to roll out to make these
806s	things even better
807s	um
808s	and you know we we don't always uh
813s	update everything simultaneously
817s	uh I I still really like the way it
819s	looks I think it's really super cool my
821s	favorite part about the Abomination
823s	um visuals is how they adapt so well to
826s	like what you're consuming some of them
828s	are kind of subtle but like
830s	take take a look
833s	um at the like differences that a
837s	um
838s	that that like each type of
843s	um
845s	take a look at the differences that each
848s	type of Minion adds to the
852s	um
853s	to the Abominations visuals
857s	um but yeah the animations especially on
859s	the uh on the Golem are just oh it it's
862s	the gorilla like I know I said it a few
864s	times when we were like previewing and
866s	everything and everyone's kind of like
867s	yeah right it it really feels like a
870s	gorilla
893s	oh come on did I not did I not oh I
896s	didn't do enough
901s	I'm like I've got some dots right
903s	that'll carry it
905s	okay now the trick is gonna be somehow
908s	try to get
911s	a new question without dying as the
914s	phase transitions right
916s	okay
923s	ow my face
926s	any plans to improve Gamepad supports
928s	but odd using on menus and some reason I
930s	can't use it on the forge yeah um wait
932s	we're like any plans to improve feature
934s	a yes uh definitely
937s	um you know we're always we're always
939s	working on improving everything
940s	and uh controller support yeah it's the
943s	ability to use controllers in the menu
945s	at all is uh very recent Edition so
950s	still there's still kinks are working
951s	out there
964s	okay here's here's where I here's where
966s	I die in this phase almost for sure like
977s	I just gotta watch for the stone
979s	that one
982s	that was close I almost got it
986s	these are two
991s	oh come on
1008s	yeah I know you like the blood but
1011s	I'm
1018s	oh gosh
1028s	okay something interesting to say I got
1031s	nothing I need to focus I don't want to
1033s	do this fight like 80 times but chances
1035s	are I'm gonna
1042s	oh my goodness
1066s	thank you
1072s	okay come on ah yeah
1079s	sorry I'm not answering any questions
1080s	here
1081s	I just I just want to get through this
1083s	fight
1085s	foreign
1104s	okay here we go
1106s	this fight this fight is such a huge
1109s	this was our first like I want to say
1111s	really major like mechanically intense
1115s	you gotta learn it multi-phase like
1118s	really epic boss fight and and we
1121s	frequently get questions about like why
1123s	isn't this and
1125s	um
1127s	a monolith boss
1132s	um and it doesn't I get it yeah
1137s	storyline wise it doesn't work as a
1138s	model with boss
1140s	all right
1145s	that was not expected
1150s	whoo
1152s	all right
1155s	looks like such a pitiful drop because I
1158s	got so much filtered out
1163s	what's up apparently it's belt day
1169s	hey can we get background opacity for
1171s	chat and overly map it's hard to see now
1173s	almost impossible on some maps
1175s	um I mean so there is uh the map overlay
1178s	opacity is in the settings so you can
1181s	um you can edit that there but if you if
1185s	you've got a suggestion or something
1186s	you'd like to see please head on the
1187s	forms of posts there
1192s	thank you very much appreciate it French
1194s	glad to have you here hope you're having
1195s	fun
1198s	also adding PVP features like D4 would
1200s	be great for Less Epoch do you think
1201s	about doing it I already talked about
1203s	that probably eventually
1207s	uh do you have any info on when some
1208s	visuals for some uniques you fixed and
1210s	added not specifically no we're always
1211s	adding more will skins be free or money
1215s	um there will be a four purchase
1217s	cosmetic strictly cosmetic
1219s	microtransaction shop uh that will be
1223s	coming uh
1228s	okay
1229s	okay I won't even shop right now
1232s	um
1233s	yeah like it's shop ah there we go
1237s	hockey's just a little messed up in this
1239s	version
1241s	and yeah yeah there will be purchasable
1244s	um Cosmetics this is strictly strictly
1247s	strictly cosmetics
1251s	and and also it's important to uh to
1253s	note that like we are trying to to make
1256s	like in-game characters look pretty
1258s	sweet even without them like this is I
1260s	think this looks awesome the zero MTX
1262s	gear at all also
1268s	this character is interesting so the the
1272s	Forgotten Knight character is
1274s	um our very first
1277s	like Sentinel version was just called a
1280s	knight and it's split into void night
1282s	and Paladin and because we only had two
1284s	master classes at the time and the
1285s	character was actually female so we had
1287s	a female Knight character
1289s	um that got ditched it was it's the only
1291s	class that's actually been like removed
1292s	from the game and
1295s	um
1296s	it kind of it was just reworked into the
1297s	Sentinel and gender flipped but um but
1300s	yeah that's that's that's a nod to that
1302s	right there
1305s	oh yes more useless information you
1309s	didn't care about ding
1313s	I kind of want that I think that it
1315s	might make lethal Mirage actually you
1317s	know
1319s	better
1322s	oh yeah I want the moves to be there oh
1324s	yes
1327s	I guess let me in
1331s	will corruption matter for LP right now
1334s	there's no point for corruption
1337s	uh progressing because LP drop chance is
1339s	the same for everyone um so I just want
1341s	to clarify here
1343s	um corruption does matter for for if
1347s	your goal is to find a unique item with
1350s	high LP on it
1352s	um you want to have more corruption for
1353s	that definitely that is
1356s	um now
1358s	what's being referred to there is
1361s	um given that an item is dropping so so
1363s	like like an item is about to drop on
1365s	the ground and the game like does the
1366s	roll calculations to see what it's going
1368s	to be
1369s	um corruption doesn't affect the chances
1371s	for that item to get
1373s	um
1374s	uh legendary potential at all but
1376s	corruption does increase the chance that
1378s	that item will be a unique in the first
1380s	place
1382s	um which means you end up with more
1383s	uniques more roles of giving legitimate
1385s	potential
1386s	um and you end up with more LP gear
1390s	so uh please do not confuse
1394s	oh yeah
1396s	I I
1402s	got here and I tried it once and died so
1405s	I guess well let's just let's just give
1407s	another shot
1410s	oh
1415s	sure we're just gonna pick some some
1417s	easy stuff here
1421s	do you care about these things yeah
1423s	let's get rid of that
1425s	so so yeah there's it corruption does
1429s	help get LP
1431s	um and we don't have any plans currently
1433s	to make corruption scale LP chance given
1436s	an item is already dropping
1440s	I was thinking about buying how many
1441s	people can you have in multiplayer or do
1443s	they follow the same
1445s	or do they follow the same quest line
1448s	um you can have up to four people in a
1450s	party simultaneously
1452s	um and there's an auto catch-up Quest
1454s	system so if if someone's behind they'll
1457s	just get
1459s	um
1460s	fast forward on the segment of the quest
1462s	line that you're on immediately and um
1466s	they'll be able to keep going so you're
1467s	not you won't get left in the dust
1473s	please make auto aim optional yes if
1475s	you've got suggestions or requests
1476s	please put them in the
1478s	four of us
1480s	I will forget them very promptly it's
1484s	like a hidden talent
1488s	except it's bad
1495s	Auto crit yes
1499s	there we go
1502s	let's just slap in some points here what
1504s	was I doing I think I was going for this
1508s	no we don't really need it
1511s	um
1518s	where are we going I can't remember what
1520s	I was going for here at all
1525s	yeah let's just take a nose that's
1526s	useful
1527s	uh here
1530s	yeah sure why not the attack speed up on
1533s	it
1535s	uh Hasting your peers were really nice
1541s	uh yeah that's really nice
1546s	uh
1551s	they're doing slow
1557s	Aryan growth speed oh it's probably this
1559s	just red yeah
1564s	just don't know what I was building
1571s	all right
1573s	uh is there going to be a special unique
1575s	storage or something for the shop or
1577s	what's going to be in the shop oh like
1579s	like the the MTX shop will be cosmetic
1582s	so so you'll see um you'll see pets
1584s	you'll see
1585s	um portal skins you'll see skill skins
1588s	you'll see uh gear skins it's basically
1591s	all the things that go in this uh this
1593s	window right here so you can see there's
1594s	the pets already work and the back slot
1596s	already works but the the other ones are
1598s	empty so like weapon helmet uh chest
1601s	like just basically items and then this
1603s	one's also um
1605s	uh footsteps and these are effects for
1608s	the pets
1610s	um
1611s	oh yeah profile image and frame it's
1613s	just it's just visual stuff that's
1614s	Portal
1615s	it's funny something don't
1628s	you guys where the guns hitbox for
1630s	targeting skills yes
1632s	some skills like static can be out of
1634s	range room no matter where you stand yep
1636s	I know
1639s	lagon's been a problem child for years
1642s	now
1643s	actually a lot better than it used to be
1645s	which is shocking
1647s	painful to believe if you uh haven't
1649s	seen the old version
1657s	uh any timeline for the patch to fix
1659s	temporal sanctum boss drops it's getting
1661s	nuts I do not know the status of bugs so
1663s	I cannot help you with that I'm sorry
1670s	uh the the fact that aura of Decay
1672s	deactivates between dungeon levels uh is
1676s	a Dev trick to avoid snapshotting or is
1678s	it a bug uh it's probably a bug
1680s	uh hey Mike any plans it's or between
1684s	dungeon levels yeah it should be it
1685s	should be persistent through that I
1686s	think
1688s	I don't see why it wouldn't be
1690s	it is a new Zone technically
1693s	um
1695s	hey Mike any plans on adding new glyphs
1698s	runes before 1.0 yeah
1702s	there's at least one that I know of
1703s	that's planned uh a new
1708s	glyph
1711s	it's at least one new glyph blend
1714s	that will that I this glyph is something
1718s	that I have never seen suggested there's
1721s	been a ton of ruining glyph suggestion
1723s	threads uh this glyph is one that I've
1725s	never seen suggested and I don't think
1727s	anyone would ever suggest it because
1728s	it's just insane
1731s	it kind of doesn't have anything to do
1732s	with crafting
1739s	uh so do you think raising Bastion
1741s	honors level from 50 to 90 and make it
1743s	extremely rare would help I mean it's
1744s	already pretty rare uh so not really no
1750s	uh
1752s	but I am also up for more options if
1754s	that's possible can you give an example
1755s	of offend that will be on par with
1757s	passion not specifically I can't I I
1759s	don't want to like make up an item right
1761s	now but
1763s	um even just like another Shield that
1765s	has some good options on it
1767s	you know
1769s	um maybe some sort of unique effect
1770s	maybe uh specific tie-ins I think I
1773s	think okay here's here's something I
1774s	think that having
1776s	um maybe a couple Shields added to the
1778s	game that are
1780s	a little more narrow but still really
1783s	good so um Bastion alternatives for
1786s	certain types of characters or certain
1788s	types of builds uh I think would be
1790s	really good so that you can um
1794s	so maybe that there's like
1798s	these four builds really like this one
1800s	item but actually still really good for
1802s	it as well and these four builds really
1804s	like this other item but bastion's still
1806s	really good for it too
1807s	um
1808s	and it's sort of a like you have to
1811s	decide which one you really want
1813s	um but like if you find either it's
1814s	still great get into that type of
1816s	situation I think will be really healthy
1823s	what is it there's a bug
1842s	okay next question
1847s	don't forget to put out last default
1848s	game in the question so I see it pop out
1850s	I think I may have missed a couple here
1852s	because it's a big chunk there without
1853s	it uh any plans on expanding for search
1856s	functionality in the stash yeah
1859s	uh like leading a search for affixes or
1862s	tears or only exalted items and so on
1863s	yeah I I don't have details on exactly
1866s	what it's going to be
1867s	um but I I think there's a good chance
1869s	that we will uh expand that sum at least
1873s	because there's there's a there's a few
1875s	use cases that aren't properly accounted
1877s	for in the current search
1891s	hey I hate this bug so much the visuals
1893s	are not supposed to look like that at
1895s	all
1897s	it's one of those ones that just like
1898s	keeps coming back fix it so many times
1905s	will we get any reason to go high
1907s	corruption
1909s	right now there's nothing except some
1910s	uniques I mean you get more items
1914s	um
1915s	and you get more blessing slot um
1917s	selection options so when you finish uh
1919s	when you finish
1921s	um a uh a timeline the number of
1923s	blessings you see like baby fault
1925s	there's three and there's two like
1926s	locked ones uh the first one unlocks at
1929s	corruption 50 I think and the second one
1931s	unlocks it corruption 200 I think
1936s	and then also you just get more gear and
1938s	like
1940s	awesome stuff like that so yeah I think
1941s	there's I think there's pretty good
1943s	reasons to go high corruption but I mean
1945s	maybe not
1948s	put your cursor option in settings
1951s	uh if bone Golem is the gorilla maybe
1954s	they make uh maybe an update the
1956s	Abomination could make it the dragon
1958s	yeah go to suggestions I know I know
1962s	please make auto option auto aim
1964s	optional I'm I'm just gonna start
1966s	skipping over duplicate questions
1969s	um
1970s	hello any plan to give up an option to
1973s	enlarge the cursor uh nothing specific
1976s	right now the the cursor is a really
1979s	painful Beast to deal with it is not
1983s	um
1987s	curses cursors are not as
1989s	straightforward as you might think
1992s	um I know it seems just like we'll just
1994s	put a bigger Sprite on it like that's
1996s	simple right just do it it's easy
1999s	um it doesn't quite work that way
2000s	unfortunately
2002s	um
2003s	so it's it's it's not just a slap it in
2006s	type thing
2008s	uh wraith and Golems are very effective
2010s	on the necro Warrior skeletons and
2012s	archers Sultans are weak and do not use
2014s	uh and not used by expert players could
2017s	you please make weak summons better
2019s	maybe if you got a suggestion go to the
2021s	forums please
2022s	uh regarding cycle content to come post
2024s	1.0 with time seasonal challenges uh
2027s	which Awards skins pets be likely kind
2029s	of like Poe D3 no man's Sky
2031s	um
2032s	so I could see yes I I think that there
2034s	is a possibility for things like that to
2036s	occur I think the
2038s	um
2039s	for the most part
2041s	so we we've there's a few things here
2043s	we've talked about having like rewards
2045s	for like winning a Race So that that is
2048s	what you're talking about that falls
2049s	into that category
2051s	um we've talked about having
2054s	um and maybe maybe what it is is there's
2056s	like well there's different ways to do
2057s	that so maybe one way we could do that
2059s	is
2060s	um every time you win a uh race you get
2064s	like
2066s	um a token that can be redeemed for one
2069s	of like a dozen MTX or something like
2071s	that and every every season or every
2073s	every League the uh every cycle sorry
2076s	the winner of each of each tier that
2078s	like gets a certain number of tokens in
2079s	the second and third get less tokens or
2081s	something like that and so there's ways
2083s	to do it like that where the
2084s	um the item isn't exclusive to each race
2087s	uh it's just but there still is a reward
2089s	for doing it
2092s	um and and if you win multiples you can
2093s	still get new rewards and things like
2095s	that
2096s	um
2099s	there's there's also things like as an
2101s	example what uh D4 did with the
2107s	um
2109s	my void res is really low I think
2112s	yep
2113s	uh this is gonna be bad
2118s	that was really weird
2120s	um
2122s	there's there's things like what D4 did
2124s	with the with the beta whereby oh my
2128s	goodness me we're just gonna play the
2130s	safe where uh D4 did with the beta where
2133s	like everyone who gets level 20 within
2135s	the time frame gets uh gets that little
2136s	wolf pack
2138s	adorable right come on
2140s	um
2141s	and like that that's a pretty low bar
2145s	for entry so things that are that are I
2148s	guess more along those lines would be a
2150s	pretty low
2151s	uh low barrier to entry to to get but
2155s	typically we would try and focus them
2157s	over a longer time frame if we're gonna
2159s	do something like that for the most part
2161s	um
2166s	and we'll always be looking at feedback
2168s	from our community so like if we're if
2170s	if we're doing something like that and
2172s	you really don't like it and you think
2174s	the way we're doing it's not awesome I
2175s	mean let us know
2198s	gonna get a couple cheeky hits in there
2201s	oh
2208s	it's another another boss fight where
2210s	I'm like I don't want to take my eyes
2211s	off the off the camera to uh
2223s	uh of course you did a dead mode is on
2226s	no you actually made me just look there
2231s	mode is not on
2235s	it can't be on this version doesn't even
2237s	have it
2239s	and I'm playing the live servers
2242s	demo can't even run on the live servers
2255s	but that's how far back I am in
2256s	questions ooh that's not good
2259s	okay Mike you gotta you got stuff in
2260s	your game here
2261s	we need other campaign bosses to be a
2263s	part of the majaza yeah I think so I
2265s	think there's you'll you'll see a big uh
2267s	you'll see a big difference when the um
2270s	the chapters ad rework comes out uh
2273s	you'll see a big difference in the early
2275s	game
2280s	chapter one two three will be
2283s	suddenly awesome
2302s	be like my goodness why couldn't have
2304s	been this awesome to begin with I'll be
2305s	like because we didn't have the tech of
2306s	the tools of the experience
2312s	you know the part in the boss fight I
2314s	think it happens around 30 when you're
2315s	like
2316s	I might actually be able to do this
2322s	but then if you say something you're
2323s	like oh I'll totally just jinx it if I
2325s	say something
2350s	calling for cents coming up
2357s	that animation's so jerky I hate it
2369s	over there we're getting closer we're
2371s	basically there let's go for it
2376s	okay and one LP dark transcenders that's
2379s	cool that's really cool ooh crit chance
2381s	I think so we have steak right oh void
2383s	res we're low on void res but crit
2385s	chance right
2389s	chance
2391s	there we go
2394s	this is kind of Niche but the X percent
2397s	of management game this Ward mechanic
2399s	doesn't work at all which trigger spells
2401s	right now correct uh and I've asked and
2403s	gotten the answer that it's intentional
2404s	I understand that it would be
2407s	be pretty powerful but I feel like maybe
2408s	having it or something would be a fair
2411s	trade since as a sorcerer for example a
2413s	lot of passives and items have it and it
2415s	really feels like
2416s	um pretty major defensive mechanic that
2418s	you cannot take advantage of at all well
2420s	I mean I I think can't take advantage of
2423s	at all might be a little extreme because
2425s	you definitely can take advantage of it
2427s	quite a lot
2429s	um but just not to the same excess I I
2432s	guess the the answer I'd give for
2434s	something like this is like a finger on
2435s	the monkey spot curls and it works on
2437s	triggered abilities but the rates cut by
2439s	90 percent
2441s	I hope you don't move all good visuals
2443s	for only shop if you make blizzard some
2445s	part yeah the
2449s	everything we've created uh for in-game
2452s	right now
2453s	uh We've created it with the expectation
2456s	that the Shop's coming and we've already
2458s	got things planned for the shop
2460s	um like here here let's celebration two
2463s	bosses down no deaths from them
2465s	celebration post here we go uh here's
2469s	some here's some some stuff coming this
2471s	is not MTX it's just regular in-game
2473s	items
2475s	uh this is the prime was this is a an
2478s	early to mid Prime list set of uh armor
2488s	yeah like we're dedicated to making high
2490s	quality
2491s	we're dedicated to making high quality
2493s	visually appealing cool looking gear
2496s	that's not purchasable that's that's
2499s	earnable in-game definitely
2501s	um
2502s	the the big difference between
2504s	purchased Cosmetics from the from the
2507s	store and like in-game found thing items
2510s	is gonna be the
2513s	um the pizzazz level The Flash level the
2517s	um the the the shoulder piece that has a
2520s	a pauldron that's like spewing lava out
2522s	of it as you're walking around like
2524s	that's that's an MTX level thing
2526s	probably
2527s	um
2528s	but but the the gear that we're making
2530s	for in-game
2532s	um
2533s	like like just findable in-game I we're
2536s	really trying to make it look awesome
2538s	and feel awesome and just you know be
2540s	cool
2543s	you know like that's I I think I look I
2546s	think I look awesome I can't equip that
2548s	I was gonna see what it looks like but
2549s	I'm too low level
2553s	I do like the big hats a lot more than
2555s	the masks
2556s	um I know some people really like the
2557s	masks but like the really the the big
2559s	like the big hat that's that's my
2562s	favorite
2563s	every time playing box when I make sure
2565s	I got a big hat
2567s	I don't know why
2569s	and I'm and I'm
2573s	zooming around in game looking at
2575s	something like look at this how cool it
2577s	is there's stuff that covered my screen
2580s	new mic Noob all right you have some QA
2584s	qct yeah we have we have lots
2588s	are there any plans to implement common
2591s	areas where lots of the players can
2592s	loiter craft re-gear Etc feels like
2595s	really a way for people to show off
2596s	their cool MTX purchases yeah end of
2598s	time is gonna be the primary hub for
2599s	that
2600s	um the all the zones where you can't use
2603s	abilities they'll all be much higher
2606s	than the four person limit
2609s	specifically so people can hang out talk
2612s	see each other the bazaar will be a very
2615s	high cap player count Zone
2618s	especially compared to all the other
2619s	ones
2620s	when will the other subclasses be
2621s	unlocked or become available 1.0
2625s	we're working hard on them right now
2627s	I know
2628s	um
2630s	VFX or leave VFX artist was um
2634s	was doing a ton of work on them last or
2635s	this week
2637s	um
2638s	and uh some cool stuff coming out the
2641s	visuals the falconer visuals are
2644s	shockingly difficult to get right but
2647s	they're coming together really nicely
2648s	and I'm very pumped for them
2654s	sorry if this is a common question no
2656s	problem happy to answer it will there be
2657s	a character customization gender swap
2660s	for classes transmog system in last
2661s	epoch
2663s	uh I'm gonna come I find it helps a ton
2665s	when making multiple characters in the
2666s	same class with different materials or
2668s	different masteries also tier for the
2669s	streams yeah um so the
2673s	um this is this is the short answer is
2676s	uh yes but not anytime soon
2680s	um
2681s	we'd really like to add a character
2683s	customization system long term to the
2685s	game we think it would be awesome to
2687s	have
2688s	um we have put literally zero work into
2690s	it and will not be putting work into it
2693s	pretty 1.0 at all and it will not be a
2696s	high priority feature post 1.0 either
2699s	um
2699s	it is something that we hope to get into
2701s	the game when we can when we have time
2702s	for it
2703s	um
2705s	you know we are looking forward to
2707s	having something like that but it's it's
2709s	gonna be a while
2711s	at best
2714s	it's it's one of those things where
2716s	there's there's so many higher priority
2717s	things like improving the end game just
2720s	adding adding more
2722s	um more models for for various things
2725s	like you know adding more skills there's
2727s	there's so much of the game mechanically
2729s	and functionally that's just not done
2731s	yet that we really have to hammer home
2733s	first uh before before we start adding
2736s	in
2737s	um
2739s	uh character customization things like
2741s	that because like like let's let's be
2743s	real here apart from like in the
2745s	character selection screen
2747s	uh if if my character had like different
2751s	eye color
2752s	you think you can't see that especially
2755s	like this like there's that has no
2757s	effect on gameplay right now whatsoever
2759s	and I'm not saying it's not important
2760s	because it's definitely something that a
2762s	lot of people really find very important
2764s	and you know what's important to our
2765s	community is important to us too and so
2768s	like I don't want to Slough it off as
2769s	like a oh whatever type feature because
2771s	we do know it's important but we just
2773s	think that there are things that are
2774s	more important that we still have to get
2775s	done like the game needs to function
2778s	better it needs to have more things to
2779s	do it needs to be more fun it needs you
2781s	know there's there's lots of things that
2782s	still need to happen before we get into
2783s	that
2798s	I mean that that is a nice belt for
2801s	for later but you know a lot a nice
2803s	crafting base we'll say that
2806s	oh yeah
2808s	two water bottles here grab the wrong
2809s	one uh oh my gosh
2824s	oh that was a surprisingly large sneeze
2826s	wow all right are you guys going to add
2829s	skills to classes that miss them right
2830s	now like the Rogue having seven plus
2832s	three instead of eight plus four like
2833s	the other classes absolutely all the
2835s	classes will have the same number of
2837s	skills at 1.0 launch so there's a
2840s	missing skill here there's a missing
2842s	skill here missing skill here missing
2844s	skill here and there are five missing
2846s	skills here
2847s	um so is that five six seven eight nine
2849s	there's nine skills missing on the Rogue
2851s	um we are actively working on them right
2853s	now they will be in at 1.0 some of them
2856s	might come before who knows but
2858s	definitely 1.0
2860s	we're gonna check it right back we don't
2862s	have a roadmap active right now
2867s	but like the big there's there's not a
2869s	lot of major features on the roadmap
2870s	between now and 1.0 so now 1.0 is item
2874s	factions
2875s	um
2876s	uh masteries
2878s	finish the skills
2881s	um improvements to end game systems
2885s	bugs
2887s	adding adding more little and then
2889s	there's like there's there's
2890s	40 other little features and I would say
2892s	little features there's 40 other uh
2895s	non-headlining features that are uh that
2898s	are actually being worked on and as soon
2900s	as they're finished you know like as
2902s	soon as someone finishes on one it just
2903s	goes in the next patch so they're not
2904s	they're hard to put on a road map
2906s	because a lot of them are just like
2910s	um if they make it in before 1.0 they're
2912s	in if they don't they'll be in 1.1 you
2914s	know
2916s	Adrian Eridan
2920s	first try and thank you very much for
2922s	this I'm glad to have you with us hope
2924s	you're having fun
2926s	all right are there plans in the works
2928s	to make Shield Rush function correctly
2930s	with that with decent charge yeah I mean
2932s	we want everything to work correctly
2933s	with everything
2938s	I think it's asynchronous charge not
2939s	decent discharge I could be wrong on
2941s	that one oh
2944s	was it the first one
2947s	have I bit off more than I can chew I'm
2950s	62. you know what we should do

2962s	International animal rescue appreciates
2964s	you
2964s	I'm gonna go to
2967s	unlock this timeline here I think

2975s	and I don't like to struggle
2978s	and mine Explosion TV I got that one
2981s	nailed
2982s	here we go let's hop on
2992s	any plan to revisit how we Farm
2994s	blessings not explicitly right now
2999s	uh how did you get the pets
3003s	I've worked on this game for many years
3008s	no um so every every supporter pack
3010s	comes with uh with with pets
3013s	um even the purchases on Steam
3014s	technically come with a quarterback uh
3016s	so you do have you should have Sun pet
3018s	you probably if you purchase the game
3020s	more recently you'll probably have a
3021s	skull and pet
3023s	uh which is this cute little guy
3026s	it's a cute little guy right there it's
3027s	it'll probably look something like this
3028s	guy
3031s	um this one here the the uh this is the
3034s	lightning Chrono worm I think uh that
3036s	one is a
3039s	I don't like having two
3042s	um but that that one the other that's
3044s	lightning Chrono worm that's one of the
3046s	early Kickstarter campaign
3049s	Rewards
3056s	try to attack that spire
3060s	uh
3065s	so good
3070s	all right hey hi
3073s	are you going to add skills already it's
3075s	like that other than skills one of the
3077s	things we add uh can we at
3082s	other than skills what other things can
3084s	we add skill trees to for last ebook
3094s	oh my goodness
3097s	um I have no idea what this question
3098s	means other than skills what other
3101s	things can we add skill trees to for
3103s	last epon
3108s	I'm sorry I do not understand this
3109s	question
3111s	um
3116s	please rephrase the question and repost
3117s	it I'll try and get to it
3120s	our character model is going to get
3121s	reworked polished for 1.0 I I like they
3124s	can be edited probably but they won't be
3126s	uh like a big overhaul for them
3134s	want gloves
3137s	nah I like my gloves
3148s	any plans on expanding on the Thorns
3151s	mechanic seems pretty lackluster right
3153s	now with nothing else really scaling off
3155s	to make a horrible bossing and such yeah
3158s	there's
3159s	um
3160s	we've we've kind of intentionally left
3162s	it as a
3164s	as not a not a primary uh archetype at
3169s	the moment
3170s	um
3172s	I I can see it being something that gets
3175s	expanded on but there's no there's no
3176s	explicit plans for at the moment
3180s	if you want to see something like that
3181s	head over to the forums leave a
3182s	suggestion
3183s	I'll just flip this record over
3185s	eventually once I'm done skipping
3188s	um
3189s	dark quiver
3191s	what do I look like
3194s	Marksman
3197s	oh any teasers yeah I did one I got more
3199s	too don't worry
3202s	I'm freaking deploy ballista yeah I know
3204s	I'm lazy
3205s	I gotta take the list out of this build
3207s	I gotta put something else in this place
3211s	but I just like it
3213s	the fun has arrived welcome to the party
3216s	Aaron
3218s	uh Please Release the shop with skin my
3221s	probably looks like a Gypsy King
3225s	I don't know how you managed that but
3226s	cool
3228s	hello belty boy
3242s	these are just spawning stuff aren't
3244s	they
3247s	ding
3253s	ding ding level up ding level up
3259s	give me that move speed that was enough
3261s	for it right yeah
3267s	uh glyph or Rune that rolls the base
3269s	type on an item would be sweet but in a
3271s	suggestion Channel yeah the um
3275s	I I we don't I know we've talked about
3278s	doing that type of Rune it would be
3280s	before
3282s	um and there was a reason why we
3283s	specifically didn't do it I can't know
3285s	what it was
3289s	uh we'd be adding seasonal event or
3291s	rotating mode some of the PB does yeah
3292s	we'll be adding in i i the plan is not
3294s	to have it rotate but rather to have it
3297s	um update
3300s	at least initially
3302s	um especially when we're still in this
3303s	like a growing stage
3306s	oh I just got a giant notification since
3309s	the hydrated success I guess there's I
3310s	guess there's a little
3318s	heavy I hope you're watching
3321s	still have this by my computer for you
3326s	um this is actually uh my son's toy
3329s	but he doesn't like it anymore so it's
3331s	mine now
3340s	uh yeah seasonal content
3343s	um yes so like
3346s	you know that at launch there won't be
3348s	the same plethora of
3351s	um
3352s	game mode options that
3354s	um the primary game we're compared to
3357s	has
3358s	um basically peewee has more stuff which
3360s	makes totally total sense
3363s	um we need to spend some time
3365s	uh adding I just like adding stuff to
3368s	the game
3369s	adding content adding activities adding
3372s	things that can happen adding cooling
3374s	features and stuff and these are all
3376s	things that we're gonna want to be that
3377s	we know we're going to want to be
3379s	long-term features right away so um
3381s	they'll just be added to the game
3383s	wholesale everyone who's playing later
3384s	everyone who's not playing ladder
3386s	everyone who's
3387s	um you know like it'll stick around
3388s	after this after the cycle finishes all
3390s	sort of stuff and this is just sort of
3392s	like a mini game expansion will be kind
3394s	of the first
3395s	several uh several of these
3399s	so it's less about adding
3402s	um rotating content and more just adding
3405s	uh
3407s	a reliably timed content
3411s	that comes with a ladder
3416s	I appreciate the gear having intriguing
3419s	implicits making life difficult to
3421s	decide
3422s	me too
3423s	take my money okay
3425s	uh will throwing damage ever be implicit
3428s	anywhere or there's no need for it um
3430s	well we do balance it specifically
3432s	around it not existing
3434s	um
3436s	so this is one of those like you know
3437s	monkeys pod jokes I always make where
3439s	it's like sure you know there's now
3441s	throwing dagger implicits and all
3444s	throwing item all throwing skills now
3446s	deal 90 less damage
3456s	any sneaky leakage on the timeline for
3458s	the bazaar well we haven't even started
3459s	working on it yet so nope
3467s	we're building back-end systems for
3470s	asynchronous trade
3472s	bizarre functionality
3487s	or we will as soon as the people who
3490s	will be doing that are
3491s	happy with server performance
3495s	the person that's going to be doing that
3496s	right now is working on Zone transition
3498s	timings so I think that's more pressing
3503s	it's an interesting uh amulet there
3510s	uh how far are we from 1.0 I don't have
3513s	any specific timing for you I'm sorry
3515s	what's the difference between Critical
3517s	Strike chance and spell Critical Strike
3519s	chance and melee Critical Strike chance
3521s	in regards to generic Critical Strike
3522s	chance
3524s	um so when you go to use Amelia ability
3528s	it takes your uh Critical Strike chance
3532s	and adds your melee Critical Strike
3534s	chance to that and then that's your
3536s	Critical Strike chance for that ability
3537s	when you go to use a spell it takes your
3540s	Critical Strike chance and adds your
3542s	spell Critical Strike chance to that and
3543s	that's your Critical Strike chance for
3544s	that spell
3550s	uh you're forgetting to deployment I
3553s	know man it's fine uh a lot of the since
3557s	uh Sentinel Helms look the same will the
3559s	beginning new models uh full Helm
3561s	remembered and Helm Don Helm look the
3563s	same as different colors
3564s	um there were some that we definitely
3566s	will there'll probably still be some
3568s	recolors
3570s	um
3570s	for a little while at least and we're
3573s	always adding more
3575s	um we want to get as many of those
3576s	recolors we only have as few recolors as
3578s	possible
3580s	um
3583s	but sometimes sometimes the recolor you
3585s	know if it's far enough away in the if
3587s	it's like a um like a mid-level item and
3589s	an in the game level item that have uh
3592s	different appeals so maybe one is really
3594s	focused on boy Knight someone's really
3595s	focused on paladins
3597s	um I I think you I think it's okay to
3599s	sometimes have have those a little bit
3601s	but you know we don't want them
3608s	I want to get it so that everything's
3609s	everything's shiny and special and you
3612s	know that sort of stuff but I think we
3614s	figure that it's it's better to have
3617s	um extra types
3620s	mechanically
3622s	um and and and suffer a recolor until we
3625s	can get a unique model in there
3634s	we might want to be a little speedier
3635s	through these so I don't think we're uh
3637s	getting quite the
3640s	stuff we want out of this
3644s	you know
3656s	oh I double clicked it
3660s	I went too fast
3666s	I don't think it's gonna work
3680s	okay that's interesting
3690s	that's very interesting
3696s	huh cool okay
3700s	uh
3702s	thank you very much like come with the
3705s	writing party
3706s	uh and so did math a little while ago
3708s	and newpy has some but I missed it maybe
3712s	three
3713s	please forgive me
3715s	I hope you're having fun thanks
3717s	everybody
3718s	stay a while hang out I'll make some
3721s	mistakes we can laugh about it together
3724s	uh not a parody but about having all
3726s	classes and different genders I know
3727s	that's difficult you animations new
3729s	armor fittings Etc same uh same as
3731s	before same same answer
3733s	uh is the Undisputed x a reference to
3735s	zizrin maybe
3741s	right now it is best to scale one
3744s	element for best DPS in most cases uh do
3748s	you have plans to make multiple element
3749s	builds scale equally as well I mean we
3752s	we do have
3754s	um
3755s	like there's there's there's definitely
3757s	some signpost nodes
3760s	um
3761s	for multi-element builds that we are
3764s	gonna keep doing so yes I guess
3769s	are you concerned interested about the
3771s	possibility for the three new masteries
3773s	will be disproportionately represented
3775s	at launch I I don't think so I think
3777s	there's gonna be a pretty large influx
3779s	of new players
3781s	at launch
3782s	um
3784s	compared to what we have now and I think
3785s	that there's gonna be enough people that
3788s	are
3789s	um like new to the game that will
3793s	just that won't that won't care that
3796s	those are the new classes I think and
3797s	then on top of that I think there's a
3799s	lot of people that um you know really
3801s	have specific archetypes that they just
3804s	they'd love to play
3806s	um and so the new classes might not be
3808s	super interesting uh on top of that like
3810s	there's there's gonna be lots of
3813s	like you know people more than one build
3815s	and everything more than one character
3816s	and everything
3819s	um so I don't insults the end of the
3820s	world if things are not exactly equally
3822s	represented
3824s	what am I just like
3827s	I speed Will Go activate
3848s	all right next question
3852s	uh don't forget to put uh at last
3854s	default game in the question
3858s	death Eagles league I I I bought uh a
3861s	Deft with the previous League
3864s	that's how it works I only got one more
3865s	for you we'll save it for a little bit
3867s	don't worry I'll get it up there
3869s	uh it feels like there's too much gear
3871s	that drops with minion based affixes
3874s	uh any plans to cut that down a bit or
3876s	am I just imagining things
3878s	um
3879s	so if you're playing on a class that has
3884s	um
3887s	so first of all I think there's
3890s	uh there's there's a little bit of
3894s	um confirmation bias or there's like
3896s	some other psychological phenomenon
3899s	happening here that's making it seem
3900s	worse than it is
3902s	um and
3905s	yeah it's real bad for us and
3908s	um
3911s	I I think that there's I think it's
3913s	partial I think what it comes down to is
3915s	it's really obvious uh because minion
3919s	stands out so well that there's like
3921s	it's just uh like bricks the whole item
3924s	or or something like that because it's
3926s	just like oh it's a minion item and I
3928s	think it's just because it's such a
3929s	distinct like oh that does nothing
3932s	but
3933s	like you can look at an item and find a
3936s	good example here
3938s	um like this 12 of potion Health
3940s	converted to Ward that's terrible for me
3943s	that isn't that is an awful stat that is
3945s	that is just as useless as minion a
3948s	minion stat for me
3950s	um
3951s	realistically not quite true technically
3953s	that's that's and and I I guess actually
3955s	I do use ballista so there's so many
3957s	damage there so like those are both
3960s	awful stats for me but the minion one
3963s	just stands out and feels worse I think
3966s	um
3967s	you know like there's more minion damage
3969s	right
3971s	uh and I I think that those those minion
3974s	stats like that's just one step the
3975s	Restless are actually pretty good for me
3977s	um and sometimes it's just about
3978s	crafting those away because it's funny
3980s	there's a lot of belts with minions ads
3982s	on them here is that is that four in a
3985s	row five yeah
3988s	there we go
3993s	so like there might be also effects on
3996s	like how loophilters are set up um like
3998s	the way mine's set up it it really likes
4000s	finding minion damage stuff but I think
4003s	that's more so because I've just I've
4005s	picked pretty generic stats to show me
4007s	gear for
4008s	um that I've said like give me gear that
4011s	has two of these stats on it you know
4013s	and uh he just doesn't care what else is
4015s	on there and a really a comments that in
4018s	that slot and and these this slot is I'm
4021s	finding a lot of gear for it right
4025s	um so I think there's a bit of
4027s	psychology at play
4029s	um that I don't understand well enough
4030s	to explain or comment on uh from a point
4033s	of uh knowledgeable uh from a
4037s	knowledgeable standpoint enough
4040s	um
4041s	I know we've done the math on it
4046s	um because this has come up before and
4047s	uh there are the ratio of Minion stats
4051s	to non is lower now than it was last
4054s	time it came up and even when it came up
4056s	last time we still were like
4059s	this this isn't really a problem
4062s	but like even if you have something that
4064s	says like
4066s	um like like there's my weapon increased
4067s	minion melee damage rid of that weapon
4069s	right
4070s	um and this is still by far the best
4073s	weapon I can have that of like all my
4074s	weapons this is the best one it was just
4076s	like a whole Stack's just bricked
4079s	um
4089s	so I don't think it's a problem really
4091s	but it might be and if you want to leave
4094s	feedback on the forums I welcome you to
4096s	do so
4097s	uh two-part question for Cycles well 1.0
4100s	release with a cycle uh kind kind yes uh
4104s	let me say yes and when we keep our
4106s	current online careful 1.0 releases yes
4108s	from the current patch yes uh second if
4111s	a cycle feature works well will they
4112s	have a chance to become core similar to
4115s	how Poe runs their leagues
4117s	um so we are not planning on maintaining
4119s	two game versions simultaneously so the
4122s	like 1.0 is a cycle
4124s	um a new ladder starts all the
4126s	characters that are currently on the
4127s	latter get pushed to standard
4130s	um but the game mode content and the
4134s	game mode availability
4136s	um we do plan to push out to all
4138s	characters simultaneously or at least
4140s	very shortly after
4144s	um I don't I don't know if we've quite
4145s	nailed down the details on that but I I
4147s	don't think there's going to be
4149s	um at least at least for the first like
4151s	probably a couple years or so I guess
4154s	um that that Dynamic of like will it get
4156s	rolled into standard well no it's just
4158s	already there
4160s	or yes it's already there depending on
4162s	how you want to look at it
4172s	so it's a little different
4183s	oh come on
4186s	I need a tiny bit more dot damage just
4188s	to like finish stuff off in that
4189s	situation
4208s	oil fire damage right obviously any of
4212s	that
4214s	yeah this thing like the implicit on
4215s	this is useless like fire damage is like
4218s	if if okay this is back to the minion
4220s	thing like if that if those implicits
4222s	there were minion stats would that feel
4224s	worse probably
4227s	I think it would I I think you would I
4230s	think that would stand out as like I'm
4232s	always finding minion gear but like that
4233s	implicit is so useless for me
4244s	uh will we see that Halo MTX in the
4247s	Kickstart events in yeah it's it's there
4249s	I've seen it
4251s	gosh we need to get that in we still
4253s	have the list of everyone that has it
4255s	why are there no skins for sale the shop
4257s	wasn't
4259s	um
4260s	uh wasn't in soon enough it was my fault
4262s	that the
4264s	um we didn't have enough time to test it
4267s	properly
4269s	and we decided that uh waiting was
4271s	better than releasing something that was
4272s	buggy
4274s	or potentially buggy
4279s	you never know could have been final
4281s	word first
4283s	try
4298s	all right let's get some info
4302s	any plans on adding uniques or affixes
4305s	with manager
4307s	okay uh it was weird
4311s	with Mana generating mechanics nothing
4313s	that trivializes Mana of course but
4315s	maybe something that enables a very high
4316s	sustained usage of man as some kind of
4318s	cost
4320s	um we've we've very intentionally not
4322s	added these up to this point and I I
4324s	have not seen plans to add anything of
4327s	it of that sort
4330s	um like like at most it would be like
4333s	it definitely wouldn't be anything
4334s	percentage based that most would be like
4336s	a like flat like five Mana returned on
4339s	crit or something like that you know
4341s	but even that is like probably too much
4347s	like that that's that's just like okay
4349s	any ability that can crit is suddenly
4353s	perfect sustain you know on its own
4362s	that's that's the type of of
4365s	Mana warping stats that uh causes
4370s	everything else to change around it
4374s	and we're pretty happy with the way
4376s	things are shaping up right now overall
4378s	um and yeah that does mean that you
4380s	can't just Spam Mega high cost skills
4384s	um and there's there's an impetus to
4385s	work in some low-cost skill to go with
4388s	it right
4392s	foreign
4394s	that's right
4395s	that one skull got it real bad
4424s	trying to line up shift with lethal
4426s	Mirage so I get the
4428s	the shift damage bonus to it but it's
4430s	tricky because
4431s	I need to use them on different cooldown
4433s	timers
4435s	to survive
4453s	here we go
4455s	no problemo
4458s	getting it done
4464s	um
4467s	kind of tempted to try and craft that
4469s	and
4470s	uh pull the
4474s	pull the cinder strike off of it
4477s	see let's see if we can do that
4479s	oh it's gonna look weird for a minute oh
4481s	I don't even have
4486s	don't even have any to re-roll it I'll
4488s	do it later
4490s	never mind
4494s	get some XP
4495s	yeah I like that idea
4499s	good
4501s	uh our companion is going to be fun what
4503s	is going on with the lighting ugh
4505s	uh it's surprised
4507s	uh are your pain is going to be
4509s	functional like picking up silver Etc
4511s	just looking pretty uh so companion just
4513s	just a little terminology
4515s	uh uh clarification here a companion is
4518s	a primalist
4521s	um is what is a is a subset of Minions
4524s	that are restricted to primeless so um
4527s	companions include uh wolves Bears
4529s	Sabertooth Raptor Scorpion and
4534s	um
4534s	uh crows storm crows
4539s	like Ravens Ravens is Raven no it's not
4541s	a raven raven no it's not Raven crows
4543s	there we go I almost said Falcon two
4545s	Falcon the Falcon will not be companion
4549s	the Falcon will work very differently
4553s	companions are a primeless specific
4556s	mechanic
4557s	Focus around Beastmaster
4560s	um
4562s	and
4566s	uh but but so the the question is
4568s	actually asking about is the Mini Pets
4570s	at being able to do things
4572s	um right now we don't plan for them to
4574s	be functional uh it's it's possible they
4576s	could become functional but um if they
4579s	ever became functional
4581s	uh we would have to guarantee that every
4583s	player had uh easy free access to at
4588s	least one with the same functionality as
4591s	any purchase through the store so we
4593s	would never uh we would never add
4595s	functionality to something that wasn't
4597s	freely available at the exact same point
4599s	in the game so if you could buy a mini
4601s	pet and have it be displayed
4605s	um from from the first scene and it had
4606s	functionality from the first scene
4609s	um there would be a free pet that was
4611s	always available for everyone that was
4613s	available at the same time with the same
4614s	functionality
4618s	but we don't have plans to do that right
4619s	now
4622s	I could see it maybe doing gold at some
4624s	point
4627s	um
4628s	usually this comes to the follow-up
4630s	question for this I know I'm super
4631s	behind I'm so sorry usually the
4633s	follow-up question to this is okay what
4636s	about
4637s	um epic shards and and I we have just no
4641s	plans to uh to make minifets pick up
4643s	epic sharks
4646s	we have negative plans
4659s	oh XP yeah let's let's make a stand all
4662s	right
4664s	ding there it is
4682s	crit strike yes please Dodge base
4686s	works for me not Health which would be
4689s	preferable
4695s	uh all right more questions I should be
4697s	answering these stats I'm sorry post 1.0
4699s	would weapons sheathing animation and
4701s	more idle animations in general be a
4703s	thing uh at least in Pizza yeah I I
4705s	there's the um the animators are a
4708s	little busy right now with other stuff
4709s	but um I know this is something that
4712s	people that that they have definitely
4714s	played around with
4715s	um I don't know if it's in game I really
4716s	hope it's in game I don't know if you
4718s	can get it to actually happen or not the
4721s	um there are several Rogue Idol
4724s	animations
4726s	um for in town
4728s	um one of them's really cool it like
4729s	like flips a coin uh if you have like
4732s	two daggers equipped it like flips them
4734s	around and stuff and this there's some
4737s	cool eyelin animations I know Rogue has
4738s	it I don't know if it's in game or not
4739s	oh I hope it is if it's not I'm sorry
4742s	but like they're like yes
4746s	uh Halo blessings that I've found and
4748s	equipped once ever be
4750s	um
4751s	uh ever be in a sort of storage maybe
4755s	with the lowest stats so I can change
4757s	the blessings without Farm uh 800 900
4759s	stability hoping to get the ones I need
4761s	with a new build also would be cool to
4763s	have for all characters to use
4765s	um we don't have any plans this moment
4768s	um it's not possible but you know it's
4769s	not it's not uh nothing in the works for
4772s	that
4774s	I would say
4776s	um
4777s	having something like this on your
4781s	um like for characters that have already
4782s	unlocked it would would be would be
4784s	viable
4785s	um impossible but for alts I think would
4788s	be unlikely at best
4794s	but you know let's bring that record
4796s	back up
4800s	I don't know I don't know how to use
4802s	records
4803s	I feel like they get dusting you gotta
4805s	blow on them right it's a thing
4809s	or just being for the 90s showing and
4812s	that's just Game cartridges
4814s	like don't ever do it it's so bad but it
4817s	makes it work every time
4821s	let me know if any of you are this kid I
4823s	I had that like cleaning kit
4827s	um
4828s	it was it was just like I don't know
4830s	what it was but I had this like
4832s	the little cleaning kit for my um
4836s	for my Nintendo my Super Nintendo
4839s	um what my cousin hadn't had no I just
4842s	didn't know uh anyways the um
4849s	and weirdly even even after we had the
4851s	superintendo we still played the
4852s	original Nintendo so much anyways
4855s	um
4856s	yeah I'd say there's a good chance
4862s	uh for for something but you know
4866s	I don't know what exactly
4871s	uh can you explain me there needs to be
4874s	a punishment for when the the player
4875s	decides to respect a skill tree uh
4877s	what's the benefit of the skill point
4879s	loss we're trying to
4882s	um
4883s	we're trying to convey the feeling of
4885s	you know like you're building this
4886s	character you're training this character
4888s	this is this is something that you're
4891s	doing to to
4893s	um I don't know I I can't I have a tough
4895s	time putting this into words
4897s	um but like as you're selecting these
4899s	skills as as you're selecting your
4901s	passives you're you're crafting this
4903s	character this character is learning
4905s	you're going through this process
4906s	together it's not just the character on
4907s	its own it's also you too
4909s	um and and together you're you're
4911s	learning and getting new things and
4913s	um
4915s	all right let's take this for that free
4916s	poison res
4919s	um I think we're still shy
4921s	yep and
4926s	being able to just flip a switch and
4928s	change
4929s	uh it it it it removes that connection
4932s	and it that that that feeling of
4935s	progress I guess that I don't know how
4937s	to put into words properly
4941s	um but we think we think it
4943s	feels better overall to to have some uh
4948s	connection to your character some some
4952s	yeah the words Escape me I'm sorry
4958s	oh
4963s	quarter answer no no sorry this is a
4965s	this is a train whistle
4969s	it was like it's got like a bunch of
4971s	stuff there I can I confess that in
4973s	Ocarina too
4976s	a little over printed
4988s	I can do results and that's it
4996s	and I'm gonna practice it between now
4998s	and next week and fact that up next week
4999s	because it's been months since I've
5002s	tried and I've kind of forgotten it
5011s	if you want me to do a mute for 10
5013s	seconds and see if I can remember it
5016s	uh it's not it's just six notes uh how
5020s	does uh psycho work again like Diablo
5022s	style uh start character over old
5024s	characters go to standard yep or is it
5026s	more like lost argument Diablo Immortal
5027s	where you keep the same character
5029s	um I have not played lost ark or Diablo
5031s	mortal so I don't have details on that
5033s	specifically but it's it's like the
5035s	first thing you said
5037s	so DC item bases have normal exceptional
5040s	and Elite item bases something like that
5042s	for Ellie we're trying to avoid that we
5044s	kind of already have it with the
5045s	coloring uh with like having repeat
5047s	visuals for it but we we try not to do
5050s	that
5054s	speaking of ladders we have a rough time
5056s	scale when the leaderboards will be
5057s	coming back for arena needs something to
5060s	throw my hardcore characters at yeah
5063s	Brave gone to the arena and hardcore I
5065s	love it I love it Loveline
5068s	anyways um I I would say there's a good
5071s	chance that it will be arriving uh
5073s	relatively soon but uh I don't have a
5076s	specific timeline for you at the moment
5078s	I'm sorry
5081s	I know someone's working on it
5085s	uh enjoying the game a lot so far
5087s	awesome sorry if you've had this
5089s	question already but is there a chance
5090s	to White planned 1.0 or is that too far
5092s	we're not gonna wait we're gonna move
5093s	into standard this will be available so
5094s	the accessories will be able to play
5095s	with them uh this will be on the ladder
5098s	basically
5100s	is there any way for you guys to make uh
5102s	loading in an echo with a party doesn't
5104s	put the whole party in a load screen
5107s	um no unfortunately there's
5110s	uh
5113s	it it it's it's when it does that it's
5116s	loading in all of that it's the same as
5118s	a load screen
5120s	um what's happening in the background
5121s	well very similar to what's happening a
5123s	little screen in the background so we we
5124s	kind of have to have that there
5125s	unfortunately
5126s	sorry
5128s	uh hey Will blessings that I've found
5131s	and equipped oh I think it's an old
5133s	question
5135s	any chance of polymers being able to
5137s	resurrect each other we've talked about
5138s	this recently actually
5140s	um it's a pretty massive change and
5142s	we're not planning on it at the moment
5145s	um
5146s	it it does put a interesting Dynamic on
5149s	single player as well because there
5150s	needs to be a single player equivalent
5152s	because if party members can resurrect
5154s	each other
5156s	um
5157s	it does it does change things pretty
5159s	heavily especially in um uh boss fight
5163s	situations uh so yeah
5169s	oh yeah all right
5173s	Elliot's we're using that yeah that's
5175s	even better
5177s	hold on to that
5184s	uh Steve out of curiosity will there be
5187s	divine era quests like the others in the
5190s	future
5191s	um
5192s	yeah there are Divine era quests
5196s	um
5196s	do you by any chance mean ancient your
5200s	requests because yes there will be those
5201s	two
5202s	uh is 4K supported properly in the game
5205s	I I uh don't know it properly
5208s	but I don't see why not
5220s	uh is Attunement the better stat for
5222s	Minion Centric Forge guard what's the
5225s	Master's Focus anyways it feels all over
5227s	the place for some reason I mean so
5228s	there's there's definitely some
5231s	minion-ish stuff in there but uh we we
5235s	tried to put the forge guard a lot of
5238s	the forge guard minion
5240s	um
5241s	scaling on uh focusing on your gear so a
5245s	lot of the forge guard minion scaling
5247s	scales directly off your gear uh and
5250s	less traditionally for how minion stats
5252s	work so we're we're trying to give
5255s	players the opportunity to not take as
5257s	many minion sets
5258s	um so that they can sort of be in The
5261s	Fray with their minions
5263s	um and if you're looking for more of a
5264s	hey minions go deal with that problem
5266s	over there type build that type of play
5268s	style and archetype we're more focusing
5270s	on uh Necromancer specifically but then
5273s	a little bit with Beastmaster as well
5276s	um
5278s	we are trying to
5281s	um I guess if there's if those three are
5283s	on sort of like a spectrum of how much
5286s	are you in The Fray with your minions
5287s	for dread would be the most and problems
5290s	to be somewhere in the middle depending
5291s	on the build
5298s	that's right I have cold Reds my Fizz
5302s	red is terrible though
5306s	my goodness
5315s	uh any plans on having higher level
5316s	versions of low level bass types
5318s	sometimes a lovable bass has the best
5320s	implicit for your build but the super
5322s	low values compared to everything else
5324s	which doesn't feel the best having low
5325s	level bass and high level items
5327s	corresponding will base would be nice uh
5329s	we don't have any specific plans for
5330s	this moment but we do plan on adding
5331s	more bass types in general and that is
5333s	the sort of thing that could be added in
5334s	the future
5340s	possibly no like
5343s	no yes no no
5348s	why are you Imperial enforcer Watcher
5350s	whatever you are you suck
5353s	take that
5356s	oh yeah
5362s	okay let's let's try and get how far
5365s	behind am I is there tuitions for time
5366s	stamps sometimes I don't scroll down and
5368s	lose my place
5369s	uh okay we'll say thank you I am
5373s	hey well blessings that I've oh that's a
5375s	repeat question for like the fourth in a
5376s	row is enchant weapon in enchant weapon
5379s	there's a node Auto cast would ever be a
5381s	useful instead of just holding on the
5382s	button to make a macro hold it down for
5384s	you
5385s	um it's kind of an experimental load
5387s	there's no real reason to use it at the
5389s	moment if you've got uh if you're doing
5391s	those things
5393s	uh anyway we could get all Idols picked
5396s	up at the same time uh I picked up at
5398s	once like runes endless do uh I would be
5402s	shocked and probably I would turn I
5405s	would make sure those incentives turned
5406s	off and I would turn off immediately if
5408s	we ever added that uh am I crazy to
5411s	appoint an ad uh loot drops to breakable
5413s	World objects if yes thank you they were
5415s	already there uh I think
5418s	they should have been already there uh
5420s	hey are there any plans to make models
5422s	progression carry over to all characters
5424s	um
5425s	not one to one no because there's
5427s	there's like you can you can get
5428s	yourself locked out of being able to
5430s	even access the monolith if you just
5431s	have it be perfectly shared between all
5433s	characters
5438s	uh also like because then you have to
5440s	like say you're
5442s	say you're pushing really hard on one
5443s	character uh and then you switch to
5445s	another character to try and play that
5447s	same monolith
5449s	um but it can't handle that same model
5450s	if it's such a high level so you have to
5452s	reset it back down to to scratch
5455s	um and so now it's now it's low level or
5457s	low corruption and then you go back to
5459s	your your corruption character and
5461s	you're like oh I want to play that same
5462s	models but oh but I've reset it on the
5463s	other one now uh what do I yeah
5466s	you know so there's uh we don't plan on
5469s	having to be shared at the moment
5472s	uh is there a chance to remove the
5474s	two-handed weapon requirement from Boyd
5476s	cleave I think is what you mean and just
5478s	keep it as an ax or sword uh no plans at
5481s	the moment of the other suggestion
5483s	please head to the four of us uh is
5485s	there any idea to give more than one
5487s	Behavior two minions some behave more
5489s	like bodyguards other more aggressives
5491s	um we I'd really like to have something
5493s	like this added like have a have a
5495s	stance to them or like a you know just
5497s	like the basic like I'm thinking wow
5498s	like aggressive defensive
5501s	um no attack or whatever
5502s	stand around
5506s	um I'd love to see something like that
5507s	we don't have any plans on that at the
5508s	moment specifically but you know I think
5510s	it's a good idea
5520s	uh there will be a Polish version for
5521s	the premiere um we are in the process of
5524s	localizing for Poland or for propolish
5527s	sorry I shouldn't say Poland because
5528s	it's a language localization technically
5531s	um I I don't know when it'll be ready uh
5534s	it probably will not be ready for 1.0
5537s	um unless unless there's a lot happening
5539s	on it behind the scenes that I do not
5540s	know about but
5542s	um
5545s	I am fairly involved with localization
5547s	side people
5549s	pretty surprised if I didn't know that
5550s	was coming
5552s	but we are working on it
5554s	we've got a lot of languages that we're
5556s	working on uh localizing at the moment
5558s	and it is a ton of work my goodness
5563s	I I like I knew it was gonna be tough
5566s	if I didn't know it was gonna do this
5567s	stuff get back here boy
5570s	I'll go whoop you so bad
5581s	Shades spine Rod of authority
5587s	super not for me but exalted some you
5589s	know
5593s	give me that XP
5597s	that's what I'm talking about I don't
5599s	want a key
5601s	oh I should go try and do
5604s	I'll probably just I'll probably bug it
5606s	out I kind of want to try to sanctioned
5608s	let's see
5609s	oh King's rainbow polish is playing at
5611s	localization for 1.0 yes I'm just wrong
5614s	that works uh how to get that mini pet
5617s	you have the blue dragon looks like I
5618s	think it's a lightning Chrome it is no
5620s	longer available if you don't already
5621s	have it you can't get it
5629s	um
5630s	Storrow prominence
5634s	um I don't know if I'm just really far
5636s	behind
5638s	but I think I've answered your question
5639s	already
5640s	um if you would like to post a new
5642s	question
5644s	um or specifically start it with
5647s	please answer again or something but I
5649s	think I've already answered it so please
5651s	don't repost the exact same question
5653s	anymore
5655s	unless you didn't think I answered it
5657s	well enough uh and then put at the start
5659s	please reanser it
5661s	uh any plans for any hybrid resistance
5663s	affixes or the like and you guys have
5665s	seven different resistances so it might
5666s	be a lot quite easy in the end up to 20
5669s	short on a couple resistances that feels
5671s	like a waste to overcap by like 30 even
5673s	if even though that's useful in some
5675s	scenarios
5677s	um I mean so there is the elemental
5679s	resistance already
5680s	um but we don't have any plans we
5682s	actually talked about this last time
5684s	um we don't need plans to uh that's what
5687s	happens my hand is off stuff I want we
5688s	only plans to have like a
5691s	um
5693s	like these three group together or
5694s	something like that
5697s	was a decent name for it last last week
5700s	though someone has someone had a pretty
5701s	good name
5703s	it's the best name I've heard for it
5704s	anyways
5713s	those are like up in the air that's bad
5716s	that's bad
5717s	drugs are bad
5720s	uh our last Master reading skills at
5723s	least 1.0 we're just gonna do beta them
5725s	before then uh they're the masteries
5728s	will be 1.0 some skills will be for that
5732s	um
5734s	because there's other skills and just
5735s	the Masters that are missing
5737s	uh Mastery reset when no plans uh when
5741s	does Rune Master Class release 1.0 are
5743s	there going to be more classes in the
5744s	future yes golden mats and good law uh
5748s	are there plans to add an API for tools
5750s	like last debug tools and such to be
5752s	able to access online characters
5754s	um yes we do want to do this
5757s	um no one's working on it right now but
5760s	uh it is the sort of thing that will be
5762s	uh on the list at some point here
5769s	venomous and you're just like no it's
5771s	not gonna be good is it
5773s	these those these gloves for bass though
5782s	you know how bad is playing Enhancement
5785s	Shaman and wow felt and Legion deal with
5787s	lightning everything tornadoes flying
5788s	can you make Tempest strike like this uh
5791s	World Trade Seoul thanks to the Epic
5792s	update so far yeah
5794s	um Tempest strike is getting a very
5796s	large overhaul
5799s	um it will not fill the same
5802s	uh skill archetype and role as it
5806s	attempts to fill now and fails at
5807s	filling now
5809s	um
5814s	so yeah they'll be some updates it's
5816s	going to be feel a lot better it's going
5818s	to be a lot more awesome
5819s	don't worry
5825s	let's go
5845s	well I'm propane plus you got tons of HP
5849s	tons of it get out of there Mike
5861s	no problemo
5867s	Arena key
5870s	someone doing Arena run sometime
5875s	it's actually not a bad it's bleed
5878s	Elemental yeah
5880s	uh penetration percent versus flat
5882s	damage any element
5884s	sweet
5887s	um
5890s	lightning plus fire flame read looks
5892s	great but feels much harder to scale
5893s	than just fire or just lightning how
5896s	does a team feel that split damage
5897s	builds compared to full conversion
5899s	um I think that they're I think I'd like
5902s	to see more reason to have them I think
5905s	I'd like to see more
5906s	um like like higher higher powered nodes
5909s	like
5910s	um
5911s	oh like like Dragon Mage at the end of
5913s	the sort tree and
5915s	um things that like encourage you to use
5918s	multiple elements
5919s	um but things that encourage you to pick
5920s	tunes that have picked three because one
5922s	of the problems in the in the past we've
5923s	done is we've had these things that say
5924s	pick three that that feel inoptimal if
5927s	you don't aren't using all three but if
5929s	you're using just two
5932s	um I think it'd be cool to add nodes
5933s	that like try and get you to use dual
5935s	element stuff a little bit more
5937s	foreign
5949s	works by any chance no and I'd encourage
5952s	you to try
5954s	um respecting a little bit more
5955s	frequently because
5957s	um it might not be quite obvious how
5959s	fast the catch-up is
5962s	and how how how like how quick it will
5966s	catch up
5968s	um like here let's let's do a little
5969s	experiment let's take lesta off I'm just
5972s	gonna de-specialize Ballista
5974s	another thing important to note is that
5976s	it doesn't go back to zero it goes back
5977s	to whatever your minimum skill level is
5979s	which
5980s	gets up to 10 so it's halfway there
5981s	already
5983s	um and let's let's put this in something
5985s	let's put this in decoy
5988s	okay
5989s	um man it's a man efficiency except that
5991s	one yeah over here I love over here
5996s	uh all right we're firing and we know
5998s	that we want the hey station yeah give
5999s	me that haste okay
6000s	so let's let's we're switching to decoy
6003s	I don't think so much anyway so it's
6005s	fine
6006s	um
6007s	and let's see let's see how long it
6009s	takes to to level up so I'm only level
6011s	64. I am nowhere near in game
6015s	um and let's let's let's see how long it
6017s	takes to to do this experiment
6024s	all right
6026s	am I gonna run around here probably
6032s	oh easy too easy does decoy have a
6036s	cleanse too
6043s	it does not
6045s	uh
6050s	it's already all level up though
6080s	okay more questions Mike what are you
6081s	doing
6082s	uh we'll we'll get back to that
6084s	experiment hi sorry don't forget to put
6086s	out last default game in your question
6087s	if you want me to see it
6088s	um hi sorry if this question was I
6090s	already asked but what are your thoughts
6092s	on reworking the skill tree so there are
6094s	no more
6096s	no more multipliers uh that should
6099s	drastically increase the possibilities
6102s	um
6104s	I I think having hard rules like that uh
6108s	doesn't always lead to positive results
6113s	um
6114s	and I wouldn't I wouldn't like to put a
6116s	restriction like that on there I think
6118s	there's probably some trees that rely a
6120s	little a little too heavily on more
6122s	multipliers
6123s	um for for high quality generic nodes
6128s	um and they get a little too easily just
6131s	picked up and taken uh I'd like to see
6134s	some more interesting notes for for
6136s	power progression on on some some of the
6138s	select skill trees that are problematic
6139s	for this
6140s	um but you know having having none on
6143s	any of them I think would be a mistake
6158s	it's not too shabby
6166s	fantabulous
6168s	so like one one Echo
6171s	we got two levels and we're already was
6173s	that 25 of the way to the next one
6177s	and this is gonna get have accelerated
6179s	XP gain up to level 16.
6183s	um like this will probably hit 16 before
6184s	any of these hit 19.
6187s	uh
6188s	I'm actually very confident this will
6190s	hit
6192s	this may even hit 18 for any of the
6193s	other ones hit 19. like like that's how
6195s	fast it's gonna catch up
6201s	look at that Haze give me that haste I
6204s	gotta go fast
6206s	because we're rolling around at the
6208s	speed of sound
6211s	are there any plans to rebound to the
6213s	set items at some point uh so far I'd
6215s	say 95 of the set items have I have seen
6218s	are significantly lower stats than even
6220s	comparable rare items
6222s	um so sets have like there's some
6225s	there's some good set items there are a
6227s	lot more specific and a lot more Niche
6230s	than uh than uniques or rares they're
6234s	generally very specific in what they're
6236s	good at doing
6237s	um and in the situations where they are
6238s	good they're actually pretty decent in
6240s	some cases
6241s	um there's a handful of them that are
6242s	pretty good
6244s	um
6245s	are they are they good enough for us to
6247s	not do something with no uh we will be
6250s	we've actually eat for the first time
6253s	I have a
6255s	uh uh a plan to prototype a mechanical
6259s	change for set items and their place in
6264s	the item pools
6268s	um
6270s	so we're we're we we've we've landed on
6273s	a prototype plan for them
6277s	and we're gonna test it and see how it
6279s	feels and decide if we want to add it to
6280s	the game or not it is something that
6282s	we're looking at it's something that we
6283s	we we hear the feedback on pretty
6286s	pretty loud and clear
6308s	all right next question come on Mike you
6309s	can do this sorry I'm so late I missed
6311s	all any leaks you you have missed the
6313s	league
6314s	um I'll I'll do I'll do the old one
6316s	again real quick
6317s	oh you know we're like I'll do the I'll
6319s	do the first one I did right at the very
6321s	end and I'll do a fresh one
6325s	um
6327s	at the end of this at the end of this
6328s	Echo
6332s	because I don't think I'm gonna be able
6334s	to get to the boss in time I wanna I
6335s	wanted to save for the boss fight
6338s	um I don't think I'm gonna get there
6345s	run mic run
6351s	frog run
6358s	yes I named my uh two-handed Rogue who
6363s	wields a gigantic
6366s	odachi Katana style sword
6369s	frog
6376s	that hopefully is not a stretch of a
6379s	reference to pick up on
6386s	okay Mike here we go
6391s	so what made you go gender locked uh
6395s	then giving people a choice to choose I
6397s	understand it doesn't ruin the game just
6398s	wondering so one of our one of our core
6402s	um
6403s	like design pillars has been character
6405s	identity uh so we've we've really we've
6408s	done this like mechanically we do this
6412s	when we when we look at what like the
6414s	big example that I always pull out when
6415s	I talk about this is primeless versus uh
6418s	oh yes Beastmaster versus Necromancer
6420s	when it comes to minions
6424s	um there's a lot of mechanical
6425s	differences there and and theme
6427s	differences to go with it
6429s	so for example like uh in the passive
6432s	tree Necromancer has
6434s	um tons of Buffs for when your minions
6436s	die get a cool thing it incentivizes
6439s	your minions actually dying problems
6441s	doesn't have a bunch of that stuff
6443s	um we we then we then look at the
6445s	ability for compromless companions to be
6448s	uh resurrected from their down state
6451s	um so like there's there's these
6452s	mechanical differences that we that we
6454s	try and work into the differences
6455s	between these classes and and part of
6458s	having this character identity uh class
6461s	identity as as a real thing another
6463s	thing to be nice
6465s	um is is having these characters be a
6468s	specific character instead of them just
6470s	being like a rogue it's the Rogue you
6474s	know
6476s	um and and and that's the that's where
6478s	the like non-character customization
6480s	kind of works into that
6484s	um and and the the second half of this
6487s	is is also just you know it's
6490s	it's a lot of resources to um to develop
6494s	a system like that it slows so many
6497s	things down
6499s	um and and if we if we were to add
6501s	character customization into the game
6504s	um
6505s	like something as simple as just adding
6508s	a new like
6510s	um
6511s	a new a new body armor for one class
6513s	would suddenly take not twice as long
6516s	but it would it would increase the time
6518s	it takes
6519s	dang damn it
6520s	uh I'm trying to rush this try to rush
6523s	this because we're right near the end
6524s	and I want to get through it
6527s	not awesome like not awesome
6531s	all right it's just it's put a new room
6533s	that changes the base type of enemy
6535s	keeps the epics we have no plans for
6536s	that at the moment but if you have a
6537s	suggestion please head over to the
6538s	forums and leave it there for me to look
6539s	at anyone else too
6544s	at all
6565s	oh what are those hello Stan nice
6582s	okay next question
6586s	you guys trying to make a quest that
6588s	goes actually fun to do right now just
6590s	be like an annoying chore
6591s	um they're I think the
6594s	bit of an exaggeration personally
6597s	um but I I do agree with the premise of
6599s	the of the sentiment
6602s	um in that there is not enough
6606s	um
6607s	unexpectedness in an echo
6612s	um there's
6614s	there's there's while you're in the
6617s	process of going through an echo
6619s	there's currently no chance that
6622s	something I don't know a chance there's
6625s	very little chance that there's gonna be
6627s	an opportunity for you to obtain uh a a
6632s	a a item upgrade
6634s	there's very little opportunity for a
6637s	little chance to be presented with an
6638s	opportunity for an item upgrade and and
6641s	what do I mean by that so the the
6642s	general example that I go for and I
6644s	don't mean this is a this is exactly
6646s	what we're gonna do and that's the only
6647s	thing we're gonna do or anything like
6648s	that
6649s	there's there's lots of different
6650s	mechanics that achieve the same effect
6653s	um and that's a treasure Goblin
6655s	the most basic form of this where you
6657s	where there's this implied it's an
6660s	implicit Quest it's an implied Quest
6662s	place it the wrong implied Quest
6665s	um
6666s	here's this thing that's going to run
6668s	away from you if you kill it before it
6670s	gets away uh you get something sweet
6674s	implied Quest there you go yeah easy too
6676s	easy
6677s	um and
6680s	we don't have any of those right now we
6681s	don't have we don't have a way that you
6683s	there's no
6684s	um there's no map device that you can
6685s	come across and a whole other map opens
6687s	inside the map there's no uh there's no
6690s	side vial areas there's no
6693s	um you know there's there's nothing like
6695s	that that can just like show up and be
6697s	like oh hey here's something cool here's
6699s	here's a reward for exploring here's a
6702s	reward for going through this and and
6705s	um
6706s	and saying like hey here you found
6708s	something cool that was unexpected
6711s	uh and there definitely needs to be
6713s	those things
6714s	um
6716s	what are those gonna look like I don't
6718s	know yet
6719s	um
6721s	oh I forgot these questions take take so
6724s	long to do because I want to get this in
6727s	time for streams I'm gonna push the
6729s	streams slightly I think
6732s	because I want to do I want to end on
6734s	the boss
6735s	I'm Gonna Go Far Enough To to do one
6737s	test run the boss
6740s	I think I should be able to handle
6759s	let's go
6771s	okay come on
6773s	come on now
6775s	come on
6780s	oh yeah no problem you can handle it
6784s	no
6801s	my goodness me
6805s	I feel the boss no problem
6810s	okay let's get some more questions
6811s	rolling let me get some more stuff in
6813s	here armor shred yes we like that cool
6815s	neat uh pass this what do you want let's
6818s	get some of this cool
6820s	oh actually taking that whatever
6824s	streets
6828s	really great thank you you're great my
6831s	God thank you thanks for your hard work
6832s	E.G you're welcome thanks for playing
6834s	our game
6835s	I want that Helene Shield yes it's
6838s	actually quite heavy
6841s	and I have to mount this to go with it I
6843s	can show this stuff every time someone
6844s	brings it up
6851s	and then also just because we gotta show
6852s	out to you know there's geralts too
6854s	the steel sword
6856s	I have a mount that I printed this is
6858s	what's gonna hold that up
6860s	tiny little thing strong enough don't
6863s	worry
6864s	um
6866s	Auto pickup for shorts no not the moment
6869s	uh is it temporal sanctum t3t4 Bull Run
6872s	not Jewel run not drop a unique item
6876s	um right now there is uh there is a bug
6878s	with jewelry's uh drop uh guarantee drop
6882s	um
6883s	and we're working on it
6887s	okay Mike power through this
6889s	come on
6891s	we're gonna kill the boss I'm gonna
6892s	celebrate with a leak it's gonna be
6894s	great
6895s	I'm trying I'm trying to I'm trying to
6897s	go as fast as I can I promise everybody
6898s	but we're not gonna die because if we
6900s	die
6901s	let's set this back even further
6905s	any leaks your next patch yeah I got
6907s	leaks
6909s	the ship's leaky
6910s	locked around welcome thank you for all
6913s	your raiding party arrivals
6916s	um I could warn you we are pretty close
6918s	to the end of the stream so you know
6919s	it's not gonna be a ton of time to spend
6921s	here but
6923s	it'll be fun nonetheless and we'll have
6924s	something cool to share
6926s	yeah that's how we do
6938s	cobras or corrosion
6947s	I do need to finish my passive quests
6955s	no talk to you sync no
6965s	okay
6967s	next question
6969s	will you be able to give the UI in
6971s	detail the stash sort and search another
6974s	quality pass update yes uh anything like
6977s	blood magic B may be an option in the
6979s	future it's already there I love magic
6981s	so more options can use the game be more
6984s	fun with mini builds yeah there's blood
6985s	metrics there uh check out the acolyte I
6988s	use the the ability you start with I
6990s	think is blood magic
6995s	um and another one you get pretty early
6996s	too I'd classifies blood magic
7001s	uh
7003s	any possibility of adding more bindable
7006s	skill hockeys for builds these more
7007s	skills than they have specialized I know
7009s	the answer is most likely no but worth a
7011s	shot we have no plans for something like
7012s	that at the moment
7014s	suggestions on the Forum and edit there
7017s	I know I said like a bajillion times the
7019s	stream I just I like the reason I keep
7021s	mentioning is because I I do not
7023s	remember these things
7025s	um
7028s	and uh
7031s	you'll be very disappointed if you're if
7033s	you're hoping that saying it to me is
7035s	enough to get that on the list because
7038s	I don't take notes in these streams and
7040s	I probably should
7043s	um how long do you think we'll be able
7045s	to shoot through terrain with
7047s	projectiles
7048s	um there's actually it's actually
7049s	interesting so so
7050s	um projectiles have two
7053s	um two different colliders on them uh a
7056s	large collider for checking if they've
7058s	hit an enemy and a small collider for if
7060s	they've hit terrain specifically to make
7062s	things a little bit more friendly with
7063s	Terrain
7064s	uh and sometimes what this means is a
7066s	very fast moving projectile can squeak
7069s	through terrain because the uh
7070s	collider's so small the time it's and
7072s	it's moving so fast the time it spends
7074s	checking if it's in if it's collided or
7077s	not is uh it's like it's the same way
7079s	you clip through walls in like olds
7082s	um like old SNES games and things
7090s	go watch an 80 run
7092s	of the original Mario Bros
7094s	and uh that's how it works
7100s	uh is there gonna be two updates soon on
7102s	the next patch um so there's still a
7105s	little time for the next patch so I mean
7106s	having uh oh there's you see that
7110s	oh no
7120s	this one
7123s	can you go see that guy will you yeah
7125s	take the bait
7126s	bye
7137s	go go go stay over there for a minute
7144s	Kane if you're uh listening can you can
7147s	you write down and just just type to me
7149s	like a bomb texture missing particles in
7152s	the air something like that
7162s	uh what is going on
7171s	there's some Jank Happening Here
7174s	okay
7175s	uh any plans to rework some of the skill
7178s	icons there's actually a bunch of skill
7180s	icons
7181s	um getting updated again uh this big
7183s	this big chunk those just just happened
7187s	I I may have problems with this I
7189s	changed branches so much that there
7191s	might just be a game file verification
7193s	that's required
7200s	okay
7204s	uh I feel like the vast majority of
7206s	passive notes around the 10 second
7208s	cooldown
7209s	I feel like the vast majority of passive
7212s	nodes with around a 10 second cooldown
7214s	no matter if they have independent
7215s	cooldowns for different elements or not
7217s	are in general really weak and
7220s	lackluster compared to nodes that aren't
7221s	Bound by cooldowns uh do you guys share
7224s	opinions on have you found use cases
7226s	that feel strong
7227s	um I I don't off the top of my head no
7230s	uh specific examples I would suggest
7233s	that frequently when we do put a cool
7235s	down on on it the trigger event for it's
7238s	really easy
7241s	um
7242s	and when we put we don't put a cooldown
7244s	at the trigger event's usually harder
7247s	no it's
7249s	um
7250s	and
7254s	um
7261s	uh it's also usually when there's a
7263s	cooldown on there there's usually a lot
7265s	visually noisier as well
7267s	um or it's triggering a player skill
7271s	so those are usually the the the the
7273s	conditions for for putting a cooldown on
7275s	it internally not always
7277s	um what am I doing I've been execute
7280s	blood sweet I got a different item
7282s	that's awesome
7283s	because I already have the chest
7286s	uh we want 62. it's already unlocked the
7288s	other one
7290s	uh we already have unique drop right so
7292s	I don't think we're gonna take anything
7293s	else because
7294s	oh increase experience I love increased
7297s	experience
7306s	all right we did it
7308s	nailed it all right uh first real quick
7313s	this is the one I already showed right
7316s	okay this is
7318s	um
7319s	someone asked to see the previous
7321s	spoiler this is the previous spoiler
7323s	honestly but just for a minute here and
7324s	I'm gonna hammer out some questions as
7326s	quick as I can because I think I'm
7327s	pretty far behind still
7329s	super sorry
7330s	um so I'm gonna try and catch up so a
7332s	lot of people here wow
7334s	hi everybody nice to see you
7337s	um is any plan to make dots more unique
7340s	to each other like poison lovers poison
7341s	res uh
7343s	probably nothing major
7346s	but there's you know
7350s	we want to
7354s	um it's
7355s	It's tricky to make it
7357s	uh to put unique things on there and
7359s	still have it be generically useful uh
7361s	well not just having it be just lowering
7363s	the resistance of that type of damage
7368s	it's it's it's more likely to have
7371s	specific effects relative to the dots
7374s	applied so we'll say like uh like crit
7376s	chance to things that are affected by
7378s	poison or something like that I mean I
7379s	know those are anti-synergistic but you
7381s	know things like that
7383s	uh any possibility you have
7385s	specialization specific nodes in skill
7387s	trees could be a fun way to build off
7388s	things like fortnite's modified Smite
7392s	um we have thought about that I think
7394s	we've intentionally avoided that but
7397s	um there are some plans for skill tree
7399s	stuff that's cool so keep an eye out
7401s	uh can you please provide an update for
7404s	the state of Healing Hands it's gonna
7405s	get a tree before 1.0 or buy 1.0 at the
7407s	latest is there any way to stop void
7409s	reversal to move you even at the
7411s	opportunity cost it's so annoying uh but
7413s	way too op to skip
7415s	um we there no matter what it does move
7417s	you I think unless it's in the tree I
7419s	don't know it's been a while so I've
7420s	looked at it uh well Empower progression
7422s	ever become account wide excluding
7424s	blessings and Corruption
7425s	um maybe but we have no plans for it at
7427s	the moment we do have something in the
7429s	works in that category that will help a
7432s	little bit
7433s	uh
7435s	need a carry there yeah I do thanks
7438s	buddy uh treasure Pig yeah there we go
7440s	is auto pickup for shreds come in the
7442s	game don't know if the answer is I
7443s	haven't here I I got a little thing I
7445s	can a little can to answer I can read
7447s	out with regards to this so we believe
7449s	that it's important for the feel of the
7451s	game Loop to have enemies fairly
7452s	frequently drop items that you want to
7454s	take an active action to pick up but
7457s	which you don't have to take time to
7459s	inspect to work out whether it's good
7461s	for you uh however there are times where
7463s	it feels bad at the moment especially
7465s	when it's just one Shard uh so we're
7468s	planning to have them drop slightly less
7470s	frequently and in larger groups on
7472s	average we're also going we're also
7474s	planning to add a sink add more of a
7477s	sink for shards you don't want so that
7479s	it feels less utility to pick up a Shard
7481s	that you aren't planning to use and
7483s	already have hundreds of
7487s	foreign
7492s	yeah do that uh I was talking more of
7494s	the two Quest Echoes you have completed
7496s	normal monoliths before you can fight
7498s	the boss oh those
7499s	um no we still want to have those those
7501s	Quest Echoes happen
7503s	uh should you do special nodes I think
7506s	there needs to be more of a reward for
7507s	those Quest Echoes or like an
7508s	opportunity for cool things to happen in
7510s	them but we we do want them to be there
7512s	I think there's there's lots of room for
7514s	improvements in those specifically but
7516s	uh they aren't going anywhere
7519s	you should do special notes in the
7520s	models like boss one or a maze one with
7523s	their special uniques to them
7526s	I mean that's what that's I'm just gonna
7528s	skip over it uh how about gear build
7531s	presets oh like a D3 Armory no
7535s	uh thanks I've only played made so far
7537s	I'll check out the Accolade next ah it
7539s	says the blood magic comment I suspect
7540s	will we ever see set items with
7542s	legendary potential no and I caught up
7549s	all right
7552s	let's spoil the number two
7558s	this is a pretty cool thing
7561s	um I first saw this from like really far
7563s	away and I'm like that's Chocobo no it's
7565s	not
7568s	um
7570s	but yeah here's a cool thing
7573s	I think it's pretty cool
7579s	I think it's pretty cool
7584s	oh yeah I think I was wearing this shirt
7595s	I don't know if there's enough of a
7596s	screenshot in there to make it to
7598s	actually capture it
7605s	here
7624s	it works have fun if it does
7628s	I was gonna wear it last week and I uh
7632s	I forgot
7634s	um
7635s	all right uh well that was just about do
7638s	it for me uh
7640s	couple other things here uh great work
7642s	in the game so far this one uh has taken
7645s	off lately yeah it's been great lately
7649s	uh yeah not read the rest of that sorry
7653s	um will we ever be able to play offline
7655s	characters in multiplayer no offline
7657s	staying offline
7659s	uh your game design decisions are often
7662s	pretty inspired thanks trade factions
7664s	crafting when you start with Cycles will
7665s	you be able to you will you be using uh
7668s	the short League format to experiment
7669s	with cool stuff competitor games always
7671s	seem to pull their punches with
7672s	Innovation
7674s	um at least initially the the goals for
7676s	our cycle content uh will be pretty
7680s	um core game Focus right off the bat
7683s	because we know there's a lot of things
7684s	like there's a lot of things we want to
7687s	add to the core game that we're like
7688s	this needs to be and this needs to be
7689s	and this needs to be in
7691s	um that we just we just it takes so long
7694s	to get this stuff in my goodness the the
7696s	the volume of content that Poe pumps out
7701s	is shocking like like we're working on
7705s	on a very similar Style game like in the
7707s	same genre with the same sort of like
7709s	plan for cyclical content
7711s	the volume of stuff they pump out is
7715s	astounding
7716s	wow
7718s	um
7719s	and and we we wanna we wanna we wanna be
7722s	pumping out content at the same rate you
7725s	know like that's that's our goal that's
7727s	that's what we're striving for
7729s	um
7729s	it's a it's a lofty goal but we'll do
7731s	our best
7733s	uh yeah
7736s	uh has the dev team been looking forward
7738s	to getting looking into the game
7740s	breaking above that has been preventing
7742s	players from finishing the dungeons yes
7743s	uh you'll notice that there is if you
7746s	read the patch notes from the last few
7747s	patch notes it's mentioned in I think
7748s	maybe in the last three patches
7749s	mentioned there we're working on it
7752s	all right I hope I feel this will do it
7755s	for me today

7788s	credits is a fantastic
7791s	um they've got a whole our ecosystem on
7793s	YouTube of of various topics but they do
7796s	a lot of game design uh game discussion
7798s	uh videos little they're very bite-sized
7801s	they're great uh if you've never heard
7802s	of extra credits check them out
7805s	uh we're gonna say hi to them that's I
