Title: Modders hangout
Post by: Vio on 12 January 2018, 18:44:21

Hey everyone!

About time I registered here as well. Nice to see that Titanquest.net is not completely gone - as they say, it is not a place but a people. :)

Just wondering who is still around, and who is still actively modding. Are any of you guys still working on stuff? Planning new projects? Maybe eager to join a project if they are not alone?
How has life been since we lost our international hub?

Cheers
Vio(los)

Hello Violos !

Glad to see you here !

With new expansion out lots of mods are kinda broken with new features and new class, it need bit of time to adapt.

The only active mod i know its on wotk is Legion of Champion from Bumble, Nargil is working something out to. But who knows

Hey Violos, welcome to our new TQ home.  :)

Malgardian (spectre) has just made a new TQ Collector for the expansion.   Nargil66 has done a new XL Caravan too.  So the modders are getting going.

hello vio.. I've always wanted to talk to you because my mage haruspex

or

https://www.kirmiziperfect.com/mage-haruspex/

isn't far off from your Freddy kreuger guide.. one could say it's the AE version of your build and it wouldn't necessarily be wrong.. however it wasn't inspired from your guide.. i just thought of it when someone from another forum was asking for a haruspex build.. now that time, me and a friend were trying to give good advice while also trying to confuse new players :)  (just for fun but we thought of a lot of weird builds doing that).. i couldn't give good details that time because it was late at night here in my country and he ended up following the old haruspex build (i think).. so i thought what a waste I'll just make one, write a guide and make it my own.. I've read some players have been following my guide already.. Alas, your guide was great.. I've just made it still good for AE/R :)

Hey Vio, good to see you.

Pretty stoked about playing with the Ragnarok changes. Already turned Volcanic Orb into a throwable mine. :)

Hey, good to see you over here Violos  ;)

The modding lifeblood is still flowing strongly for Titan Quest for sure  :D I've been working on a new project for quite some time now; an all new original map mod.  Very excited to announce it and share with you all when the time is right ^^

Hey everyone!

Violos is here, so here's the question:

Will you make D2I update for Ragnarok?

Title: Re: Modders hangout
Post by: Vio on 14 January 2018, 21:48:37

Hey all, thanks for the warm welcome.

I agree that it is about time D2I got an update. Actually I put a first beta on the German forum some time ago, just have been very busy with things.

And nice to see someone use the phys dmg on Distortion Wave @botebote77! Only thing I would be wsry of with that build is splitting between Int and Str because in the numbers tthat rarely works out unless you have a LOT of overlap like %total damage effects.

actually you don't get nerfed in damage.. there's another change in AE i haven't mentioned in my guide.. physical damage from chaotic resonance is flat now instead of % making it more easy to scale with str and %damages.. also, i didn't mention visor of the shadowlord but i kind of suggested in the pic (i do that sometimes).. aside from the all skills, it has like 45-50%? EBD.. and EBD is the only elemental needed in this build.

the physical damage now in AE is 140 from distortion wave and another 120 from chaotic resonance.. those are just at max lvl, not ultimate.. add in the armor reduction from chaotic resonance, %damages, absolute RR from study prey and the scaling with strength.. sands of sleep isn't necessary in higher levels anymore especially with high CDR

i feel stacking %physical is better than stacking %elemental for this build.. so athena's battle greaves is another solid choice.. and for ragnarok, sweet holy neith's will (thank god they still haven't raised the dex req for that)

edit: one thing i like here is this isn't a glass cannon.. it's still a cannon but not fragile.. so less running, more attacking
