Hey everyone,
This is obviously not great. I've gone ahead and passed it on to our developers to read over.

These are fantastic!
guys i have a big request...[lease add a photo mode in the game...my slayer looks so good rn
Yesssss, this would be amazing! We're working on a reliable way to toggle the HUD for a start :)
What kind of games affected your art style and game mechanics ?
I can't speak for the OG devs, but I did hear our art style was greatly influenced by Disney at the start. This was due to its universal appeal and welcoming aesthetic.
While I understand that Skyfishing's been more or less shelved indefinitely, are there any plans in the works for other minigames outside of the "stay-n-slay" gameplay loop that HG offers?
Right now, we're focusing on the core combat (ie Behemoth huntin'). No new mini-games are planned at this time.
After not playing since reforged, I enjoy the omnicell update. I would love more of a build off of it, are there any other plans for the future for more cooldown based abilities? I would love to mix up combos with devastating abilities i.e. ice shard from ice borne.
We want to add a lot more Omnicells and we aim to make them varied and unique. Who knows what whacky mechanics we'll come up with!
I don't like to ask this kind of tricky/thorny question but i feel like i have to:
Do you think others proyects at PHXL have slowed down Dauntless development?
I love you guys, please don't hate me, i'm just curious about what you think.
Our output is roughly the same, and now that we've settled into a good seasonal rhythm, we're getting into a good cadence with launching content.
Our team is roughly the same size. PHX has grown like wild to support our new titles and build teams around them.
Hello there !
Months ago you talked about new costmetics like wings.
Is it still a thing ?Also, really want to have the possibility to share buffs with mates. Have a way to play the game as support, give damage or other buffs. Is it considered ?
Thanks, last patches were amazing <3
New cosmetic slots (like back) are not happening at this time. We'll always be bringing new armour sets/weapons/crowns/emotes/ etc though!
When might we be seeing additional cosmetics for higher trials placements? Top 5, Top 1 etc. The gold crown isn't very prestigious anymore since multiple weapon leaderboards don't even get filled each rotation so it would really be nice to have something higher to separate those of us who have accomplished more. I know this has been asked about for a long time and I think we really deserve something.
I'm seeing this request a lot and I'll bring it forward to the team!
do you plan on adding more chronicles (for lore and reading purposes), and/or missions (for fun fun fun and lore purposes)?
Heck yeah. I've been getting into the narrative stuff lately, and I can confirm that 1.7.3 will have a handful of nodes and a chronicle. This one won't have an original illustration, but we're laying the groundwork for future stories :)
Well this is minor compared to most other questions BUT there is huge amounts of variation in facial features (ie nose, eyes, lips etc) but nothing in terms of bodies. Either hmm, "female" and slim or hmm, "male" and bulky.
Not asking for anything as detailed as MHW but it would be nice to be able to vary body shape and size.
This is something we've talked about internally and it's a huge lesson for us.
I can't promise anything for Dauntless, but when it comes to our new titles, we want to add as much diversity as possible. It's a lot easier to implement body sizes early in a game's life than later. There are a lot of things that are dependent on these two body types in Dauntless.
Now that the Exotics have been added back to the game and the exotic weapons refreshed with prismatic slots, are there talks about other Exotic weapons and helmets coming in the future? Personally I would love to see an exotic for every element and every element.
What I'm hearing from designers is "That would be great so someday in the future!"
Any chances to resume development on the bow? Are new weapons completely off the table?
I think it's just what this game lacks to calm the itch for variety. Omnicells were a step in the right way, you can add them on a regular basis and they change important aspects of gameplay, but weapons are the icing on the cake on monster hunting games and there are still some important archetypes to cover.
Thank you for your hard work.
A new weapon will happen once we're done with some refreshes. Check back next season for more news ;)
Any plans on making able to purchase the desperado(poncho) skin at game store?
It's coming back in 1.7.2 in a free Event Pass!
Do you guys plan on making any chimera equipment, ie. Gear made with multiple parts from different behemoths?
That's wild and I love the idea! I'll pass it on :D
Ok, I'm going to ask a bunch of Yes or no question, so just repond yes and no in the proper order. 1. Ever plan on making Phase 2 Escalations with new maps and Legendary behemoths? 2. Ever plan on adding behemoths with new rigs? 3. Ever thought of a Giand Spider behemoth? 4. Is the Bow going to be a weapon at one point? 5. Is Hunt ever going to make a return? 6. Will pets every be a thing? 7. Ever gonna add any new elements like Water and Wind?
If you decide to answer these questions,... Thank You.
We can't commit to a solid definite yes or no on any of these! It all comes down to when we have the bandwidth and we if we see the value in it. Things change all the time!
Do you plan to change the way loadouts work in the future and divide them into: actual build loadouts and cosmetics loadous (including slayer appearance, etc.) where you can mix & match between them (in a similar way MH does it)?
Not at this time, but I've been hearing this request a lot lately.
file name can give hints as to what it is like if its shrowd or another shrike
It's a secret :)
When will you give guilds a purpose in the game?
We want to revisit our social systems in a future season for sure. Nothing is locked in at this time, but there's a lot of desire to give guilds some incentives!
Hello! My question is, will you add more weapons in the end or is still something thats on the backburner? Whatever the answer is, cheers bro i'll drink to that
Yes, we will be adding more weapons once we get past this season and some refreshes :)
