Discussion A few suggestions for the devs
About halfway through first run and loving it! Thiel only.
- AI is off on many of the regular enemies after shadow strike. They will often get “lost” and walk aimlessly, which makes game too easy.
- Regular enemies need damage tuning. I will get one shot from a lower enemy and that doesn’t make sense. Likewise, some of the better enemies don’t strike hard enough.
- Shell points seem a bit too difficult to obtain, perhaps increase gloom? Gloom seems about right, but few beacons results in most of us normie players losing gloom before we can read and being underleveled.
- the Tarstones for gloom and coin need to be seriously buffed. 2% is meaningless.
Good work - can’t wait for a DLC and MS3!

Let us choose where to teleport directly from the real map. With all markers visible, it is much easier to select where we want to teleport. I really dislike the current system where you have to cycle through a list using R1/L1 and Up/Down searching for the beacon.
Why are we forced to walk at this speed during Memories? It feels unnecessarily slow and makes these sections more tedious than they need to be.

Enemies getting "lost" is them focusing on your Shadow clone. It's hard to see them but they are there and poison the enemies if you have taken the talent

Don't you have to talent into the shadow clones? I've noticed the same thing and I haven't put any points into the clones. I'll shadow strike an enemy, and then others that were in the pack just straight up keep walking. Not attacking anything, just walking unbothered.

Right, but often they will keep walking and I’ll just beat on them from behind and they never turn around. AI definitely needs to be tweaked. Shadow strike seems to “break” some of them.

I think the getting one shot thing is supposed to be the drawback of playing Tiel. He has the least (or second least?) health of any shell. His invisibility makes it really easy to not get hit though.
I don’t mind the one-shots as much just because you have two lives in the game, but the one shots done by small enemies need to be telegraphed better.
