But just to clarify further if you can please:
If for example my existing chest piece is rolled for stamina, in 1.4 will stamina continue to be the dominant stat or will the stats be completely re-rolled i.e. the values distributed equally among the 3?
You'll keep your stamina roll, but the value will be adjusted to what would be expected from a 1.4 item.
Thank you so much for your reply. I really appreciate it! My fiancée just invited you over for dinner if you are interested :)
Sure, what's on the menu?
Yannick,
Thanks for the update. If they upload our characters can the loot drop rates be adjusted to the projected value of release so we can get a feel for what it will be like when 1.4 hits?
The loot drop rates are already adjusted. We haven't "boosted" them artificially for the PTS.
There might be tweaks with the upcoming PTS update, but we intend the PTS to be representative of what you'll get with 1.4, otherwise what's the point?
I hope so, I bought The Divsion on pc just to play the pts and my character is only a lvl 7 so that would do me little good for the next week of PTS.
That's a good point, I'll see if we can do something for this situation.
will we still have the option of playing with the old randomly created PTS character?
Nope. We'll have to transfer the entire content of your account, and for this we need to wipe what is already existing on it on the PTS.
I think they were talking about the best way to get SP, because the caps and whatnot have been adjusted. 90kSP is like 30k in 1.3
So, rolling backpack to 8000 skillpower, doesn't have as much of an effect as 6k in 1.3.
This. You can still roll SP on an item, but it will contribute much less to your total SP than Electronics would.
They left for the No Mans Sky sub
Played it. Was fun. The salt though...
Thanks for the reply, I figured it would all be rerolled since you guys are removing the scavenging stat from all gear.
No the only things that will be completely rerolled are performance mods and weapon mods.
For all the rest, we'll try to only reroll what's necessary, or adapt stats to the new balancing.
Hey guys,
Just quickly jumping in to let you know you're not being ignored. I don't have all the answers right now, but to answer your two main questions, yes, base stats will be added to your items and existing stat numbers will be tweaked to be in line with post 1.4 new items.
We'll work on a more precise list of what will change, and share that with you, probably during this week's State of the Game.
Also, we'll be importing existing characters with the next PTS update (hopefully this Thursday), so you'll be able to directly see how your character is impacted (if you're on PC).
Yannick
Yes, in a perfect world we would have preferred to publish more detailed patch notes before opening the server.
This first PTS is also a learning for us, and we're trying the best we can with the resources available. ;)
Thanks for the clarification. Just the flat bonuses having no overlap suits me just fine - each increase in gear score will now mean something every time.
Side note: I always read your posts in your accent, much more fun 👍
