about adepts and archmages, i only pointed out the reduced int requirement.. is making them almost similar in attributes a bad design? hmmmmmmm don't know.. it's not a big issue for me

People here are so negative about developers,

not me although i started the thread.. i only wanted to inject some humor 

edit: some of my characters, i use my secondary slot to equip bleed resist.. the most dangerous i think are the werewolves in Jotunheim.. but even there, like what mammoth_hunter said, i find that low positive is enough

Well like I said, I can only do what I can do.
If nobody likes that, then so be it.

i seriously expected you to apologize.. you are unbelievable

you are accusing this whole community of favoring only good players.. how do you think those bad players became good in the 1st place? me including

Actually I have both maxed

that just doesn't add up.. an accomplished hero character has 455 health.. that means if you complete all quests, your base health should be 455.. storm mastery at lvl 32 gives 672 HP.. nature gives 640.. 455+672+640=1767.. I'm reading your HP as only 1704

and true enough my accomplished hero ice shard has 1767 HP


it should be like this:
base HP: 300
the poisoned spring: +75HP
lampido's potion: +80
storm: 672 HP
nature: 640 HP
300+75+80+672+640=1767

so can i butt in again? I'm actually scared but I'm pushing myself

you see even 1 pic reveals many things.. you don't even have to add artifact, we can identify it by just the appearance: eye of heavens

1) socket your items with charms/relics.. it won't be a waste.. or rather, it will be a waste if you don't use them

2) your right click is ice shard but your jewelries are pet items.. your artifact is also a mage gear.. so which is it? are you a petmaster or caster?you can't be both at lvl39.. well actually you can but it will be a nerf.. I've played many many many casters already.. i can say that if you want to play caster, ditch pets for now.. if you want to play petmaster, ditch ice shard for now.. if it's me, you know what i would choose

3) i think your HP is quite low.. since you have refresh, that means you have nature maxed.. but i think you don't have storm maxed yet.. at lvl 39 and at late act 4, it's time to max both

edit: eh my eyes are playing tricks on me.. no refresh.. i am also getting old and slow

I usually read 70% of posts, avoiding long posts,

you just gave me an idea of what to do if i want to post obscene languages
lol just kidding

wow.. here's to hoping you can play past those 2 years

don't want to do any more tests I'm too lazy for that.. i can't even use my PC right now it's having problems.. btw those are not my mechanics too i merely provided links to

1) steamcommunity
2) titanquest.wikia
3) something that i previously debunked

and I've tested quick recovery before and it works.. so it's not useless because the only way it would be useless is if it doesn't work

one thing i noticed about your tests, you used it against empusa but empusa deal AoE damage right? shield can't block that right? it's not that i don't trust you man but i think empusa is not the right monster to test it with.. actually i don't care if it's before or after.. it's not a big issue for me

(This is not a critique or resentment to the game.  Sometimes it’s good to have fun    )

Aloha!  So let’s talk about items.  I know many items are good, some are so so.  But some are just plain out weird.



What is up with that reduced int requirement for armors and weapons? Why would you need to reduce int requirement when the item itself requires high int already?  Well i know it has it’s uses but… really? -30% int requirement for a lvl 48 mage item?  The reduced int requirement for weapons is even more weird.  The only int based weapons in this game are staves.  Reduced requirements, especially as high as 30%, is usually sought out so you can keep said stat to as low as minimum.  So basically, if you want to equip a staff, you would want to keep intelligence to as low possible because why would you need int for a staff weilder right?  Eh?  Is that right?  bonkers.

Veterans know that the best use for that is if you want to twink your toon to equip lvl 48 or below staves but with higher int requirement like Caduceus and Eye of Osiris to name a few.  But veterans also know that it’s a poorly thought out design because soon you can equip it anyway without the need for -30% int requirement.  The boots will just outgrow it’s usefulness and it’s a shame because it’s part of a pretty good set.





80% Reduced Defensive Ability.  On a bow.  Really now. Well yeah it’s still useful for a petmaster and for multiplayer.  Ok ranger, because this is one of the best weapons for a ranger right?  Surely a good tactic for a ranger is equipping a bow that reduces defensive ability right?  Forget about your own damage, the important thing is your wolves deal more damage.  And multiplayer because if you want to play an archer on  a multiplayer, surely you would want to be a support.  Right?  Get a grip.


So let’s talk about Ragnarok items..

Devs:  It’s Ragnarok and part of the new content is we will be adding a new type of weapon
Us:  Ok we’ll farm for them
Devs:  Yes.  We’ll make sure you find them.  Lots and lots and lots of them
Us:  This is too much really.  We want to find other items too 
Devs:  You're welcome 


Devs:  You know you should really try a club for a Hunting toon
Us:  Eh? Why would we want a club when a spear or bow is the ideal weapon?
Devs:  Because we’ll make it very good for you
Us:  Ok I’ll use it for my conqueror
Devs:  No please. We’ll even add +2 to Hunting

there 


Devs:  We’ve included many new items.  You should try them
Us:  Ok we’ll mix it with some of our items
Devs:  Ah no.  Those vanilla items are outdated now.  You can forget about them.  We’ll prove it to you
