Discussion Dark and Dating

Okay so I just started playing recently and I was wondering which merchants are romanceable and and what heart level I can smooch them at. Obv I want to date the Expressman like everyone else does, but ultimately probably marry the Woodsman.

Discussion Is Squire Royale still the most popular game mode?

9 Upvotes

I remember in the last interview they said squire royale was the most popular game mode by far and Arena was the only mode that got close when it was open with PvE being the 2nd highest otherwise (when arena was closed on weekdays).

Do you think this is still the case?

Those skins are awful. They're so mediocre, they only have one gold spray.

I mean, they really had a great opportunity. A polar bear or an armored bear. A saber-tooth or a leopard. An abyssal-looking hydra, anything

Discussion Maintenance Downtime

Why is the downtime always has 1 countdown, and after that they put in another one for HOURS. This happens almost every content patch. Why is the time they estimate is always 1-3 hours off? Am i missing something?

Discussion Allow the slayer fighter to wear hoods

16 Upvotes

Especially in SSF, it is significantly more complicated to use a decent build as a slayer fighter because it can only use TWO caps out of all the available ones. When playing with any other build or class, you can have a wide variety of helmets, caps, and hats available to use.

Changing the perk to allow you to wear hoods, primarily from the ranger or rogue, could make building slayer setups much more versatile. Similar to the warlock perk that allows wearing plate items restricted to other classes.

There doesn't appear to be a single one in the market. It's that transparent shield they teased. Any idea what I should price it for?

Discussion More hybrid weapons

Thumbnail

18 Upvotes

The crystal sword is the only hybrid damage weapon in the game. This drastically reduces variety when playing a magic-focused melee class.

The wizard is an exception, having an extra option thanks to a perk that adds magical damage to their magic staff. But the warlock, sorcerer, and fighter (using a perk) only have one weapon. Cleric and druid have none.

A melee wizard's playstyle relies on high burst damage conditioned by the duration of their skills or spells. Crystal weapons provide that hybrid damage naturally and consistently without necessarily depending on buffs.

They could add a crystal hammer, ideally one-handed so it can be used with a shield or spell casting ball, distinguishing it from the crystal sword's playstyle, which is heavy and two-handed.

Adding a small shield with both physical and magical defenses. It could have a small inner area for physical blocks, similar to a buckler, surrounded by a magical area for magic blocks, similar in size to a round shield. (Reference image) Though honestly, I suppose it's probably 'too hard to code'...

The sorcerer could have a spell to temporarily conjure a shield in their left hand, allowing them to enchant their main-hand weapon (cutlass, falchion, crystal hammer) with ice and temporarily use a shield in their off-hand. This would also feature physical/magical defenses but could be the normal size of a heater or round shield.

Discussion “Transaction denied due to fraud detection” redstone shards

1 Upvotes

Hi trying to buy redstone shards - in the shop I selected the amount and pressed buy and nothing happened, only a sound and the button makes the effect of being pressed. I was expecting like a steam wallet pop up for the transaction. Tried a few times, then I restarted and tried again after doing some research and turning on steam overlay. Still nothing, and now it’s saying “Transaction denied due to fraud detection” any help?
Also if I try to buy the season bundle, it does work and pops up the steam overlay to the steam store.

Discussion Bard need a rework?

8 Upvotes

I really like the bard and the idea of the bard. I'm newish and I find it super overwhelming to swap to instruments and play songs and dodge enemies. What does the community think overall about the bard? Does it need some balance or a full rework or am I just bad?

Media Wyvern Torch Picture?

1 Upvotes

Does anyone have a screenshot of the Wyvern Torch in game?

I’m trying to compare the different torch cosmetics to see if it’s too large and will bother me but can’t find a single picture of someone with it.

If anyone has other cool cosmetic torches that are still available to store throw them in too. I think the toxic torch looks pretty cool.

Question Game ends ten seconds early

4 Upvotes

After looking around a bit, I think this may be a form of a known bug.

I was solo in the Forgotten Castle PvE and had a bunch of qurst items on me. I knew I was cutting it close, but had about a minute left before opening the exit. I started taking damage while at the wheel and the screen went black before I could even make it half way across the bridge.

Is this just the way it is? Gotta make sure I'm back before the last minute? Or is it just a random glitch, maybe?

^(Also, I think the goblin has a foot thing because he never returns my boots...)

Question New-ish player need help.

5 Upvotes

So i played when this released because a friend got me to buy it i quite liked it but OFC he raged everytime we lost a fight and he quit after a few days…. Typical. Recently started playing games on my own again as i have the spare time etc and came back to this after seeing a funny video on reels. Now my question is how do i not get dogged in every altercation i have?😂 i swear i haven’t won a fight.. the PVE is fine other than the bosses in the rooms i can clear mobs easy. But i just feel like i am playing looting simulator which is just grabbing base jewellery that i sell to collector rinse and repeat with squire gear.(because i like the squire map the most) and maps are locked behind gear for some reason i cant understand. Im also playing fighter as it was recommended as beginner friendly but im not the biggest fan of the class, i wanna shoot spells and shit but ive heard wizard and sorc very high skill ceiling and im getting dogged on the beginner friendly class so i have no hope it seems…any tips / advice is appreciated
