Jmods, Love what you have showcased so far. Everything is looking great, and I understand that some things need to have a surprise element. Will you all be talking and showcasing anything else Archaeology before release? Any chance of a demo explaining the different mechanics of the skill?
External link →The first of the Road to Archaeology videos should be releasing tomorrow, and that will be just the start of out pre-release showcase.
Hey Rowley, a lot of people have concerns over the items that may increase exp since it was mentioned a while ago that some will work and then never explained if y'all just meant the two outfits.
I've seen at least 10 posts about this with people asking for answers but absolutely no response besides for "we will talk about it later."
I know this might seem like a response to some but this is a horrible thing, it's leaving ironman accounts with little to no time to prep, if there is something that may work to help them with the skill; it means those without billions to drop wont be able to get the items, and will have to go spend time trying to get them themselves, if they want the boosts and can't afford to pay the high entry cost, instead of playing the new skill and means the race for 200m will 100% comedown to who has the most alts or clannies buying items for them at the last moment which will also impact the economy negatively.
The main questions I've seen are about the newer boosts that has been added to the game since invention was released, so Skillchompas, wise perk, incense.
We have to focus on the core information first rather than specifics as there is a LOT to cover, and we don't want to confuse things by going too much into the details before we even cover the basics.
We will answer questions like this in due course ahead of release - e.g. existing items, quest requirements, etc. It's also best coming from the team as a whole rather than an individual, so we can be sure of accuracy and not have misinformation doing the rounds.
I'll flag this to Poerkie. Perhaps we can start covering some of the specifics during the first Archaeology live stream.
Regardless of when any information is released, there will likely be some form of race to gather up resources as cheaply as possible. It might well be in your interests to speculate before specific information is known.
