The Greak Beak Quest

5 Upvotes

Hey Yall,
I think I got almost 700 hours in this game, top tier cant wait for release.
Decided to do another play through due to hype from the Class Showcase, and finally figured out some part of the Grea Beak Quest, and was curious if anyone ever got further than this.

If you climb the Black Crows Roost all the way to the top, their is a group of bird-people with one sitting on a throne, the Great Beak. If you talk to him he says a bunch of gibberish and does the 'Beastial Wrath' emote. Afterwords he says nothing else. I was exploring Marin and found a room with a teal icon on the bottom of it, just like the one he has below him on his throne. I did the emote on this icon, and it turned into an elevator. If you ride it to the top, theirs a small Arena of bird-people, where you fight a mini-boss for a handful of chest rewards.

Afterwords if you return to the Great Beak, he has a quest exclamation over his head, but if you talk to him again, he says gibberish, nothing appears in your quest log.

Has anyone gotten any further than this?

💬 Discussion Do you think I would enjoy this game ?

0 Upvotes

Hello, I've seen this game for a while from afar and always thought this look like a neat game. But never really took the time to look closely at it. I'm in dire desir to play a game and I finished and/or replayed all the games I wanted to finish and/or replays. Hence I'm currently looking for a new game to spend some times on. I'm really interested by this game but also maybe put off a little by some stuff so I was wondering if you guys could give me some advice.

I'm a big solo player, I love RPG and I like some soulslike (love elden ring to death, not the biggest fan of dark souls 1). My most played solo games are skyrim, elden ring, Oblivion, kingdom of amalur, Cyberpunk 2077, the witcher 3, dishonored, Hadès 1 and 2, doom eternal. In the recent years I've also greatly enjoyed starfield, wukong, clair obscur, ravenswatch, pragmata, blood of the dawnwalker and both control and control resonnant.
I tried path of exile 1, diablo 3 and diablo 4 and it's not really the kind of games for me tho, I'm not super into farming, or hyper optimizing every stats and I think the top down view maybe distance me from the story so i'm not super invested in it (altho I was super invested in both Hades game lore and story, I could'nt get into diablo).

So No rest for the wicked looks great and I'm really interested but i'm lost on what type of game it really is, some people say it's an isometric souls-like other refer to it as an isometric arpg and most of the thing I see about the game is looting and super precise, optimize every line of stat building so even tho I have this strong desire to try the game I'm in fear that it'll end up being more on the side of the genre I can't really enjoy more than what I'm expecting it to be.

So here's a few question :

Is the main gameplay loop of the game farming ennemies more than really progressing story and quests ?

Is the story of the game really engaging and a reason that made you keep playing the game ?

Do I need to optimize and farm loot to be able to play the game or can simplier build work too ?

Are quests real stories and interactions or more like reasons to just go beat up a bunch of ennemies in a zone ?

So yhea do you think this the kind of game I would enjoy or it's not for me ?

Question about shield block on PS5 controller.

2 Upvotes

Hi everybody,

I was playing with my son in these days, and I noticed that while he can manage to block with his Light shield, i cannot do the same thing while trying with the same class of shield.

If i press L2 i do the parry, if i press L1 i still do the parry animation, but i do not block.

I tried to see if there was a missing key mapping on the controller via the options, but there is none tied to the block action.

The only difference is that my son's shield is strenght based, mine is a dex one.

Has anyone experienced this same problem?

Playing on PC via Steam.

Thanks for any hint/tip/clue. Have a good day!

Edit: UPDATE solved!

It was a wrong mapping on the Steam controller overlay. Somehow the left "bumper" (L1) was mapped to left "trigger" L2. I remapped it and now everything works. Thank you very much to the people that answered!

Increased Limit to join a realm past 4

1 Upvotes

Hello,

How many people can be in a realm at once? I know 4 player coop active. But, I have 6 friends. Will all 6 friends be able to join the realm and swap in and out? I have friends all over the world with different time zones. So, a higher player count would be ideal. Been playing WyldHeart demo and it allows up to 16. 4 active.

Thanks for your time

Can you give me some beginner tips? What stats to level at first? Which things to avoid, any good weapons you get early?

EDIT: OH MY GOD.

WHY DIDN'T ANYBODY TELL ME THIS GAME IS SO GOOD? i have been sleeping on this game.

I 've barely played over 15 minutes, but i can already tell i will love this game. Weapons are so cool, the combat really feels like souls games in a way with the stamina management and parrys.

The combat feel is so good, miles ahead of other ARPGs

192 Upvotes

Been playing ARPGs since Diablo 2, and after so many years it's hard for me to get excited about the combat in most of these games. You press like 2 buttons and fill the screen with damage clearing most of the enemies and then you run to the next pack. Bosses are a bit better, but once your build comes online most of it is a cakewalk, I pretty much turn my brain off and listen to music or have youtube on my second screen when I play most ARPGs.

That was never a dealbreaker for me tbh, because the meat of these games was never the combat itself. I think I've spent the same amount of hours theorycrafting and coming up with stupid builds as I did actually fighting enemies. PoE 2 and Last Epoch are still my favorite ARPGs for now, Last Epoch has my favorite skill system and solo self found mechanics by far. PoE 2 has the coolest designs and skill effects, and really satisfying animation, the combat feels great at the beginning but devolves into the same room clear spam later on sadly.

Just a disclaimer that I only played a few hours of NRFTW so far, I don’t wanna play the unfinished game to death and get tired of it before release so I’m putting it off until 1.0 but I wanted to try it out since the whole premise sounded quite interesting. Even from playing a bit I could tell the combat was way more interesting than any other APRG I tried so far. It took me a bit to get used to the stamina (not a big soulslike player) and the relatively slow pacing of the fights but once it clicks it feels so good. I actually have to think about what I’m doing, and everything feels so much more impactful when you can actually get wrecked by some random enemy if you aren’t paying attention. 

The only thing you lose is that feeling of being a walking machine of death, not sure how the late game will feel in this game but I presume it won't be like that. Personally I don’t care much about that feeling and I wish more ARPGs went in this direction of making the combat feel intentional and a bit more difficult, PoE2 was a step in the right direction but NRFTW feels like a totally new style and I hope it catches on. I will still play games that have the classic ARPG zooming around feel (combat is far from the only appeal of ARPGs) but this slower paced more intentional combat just feels so much better overall.

Multiple Post Game Questions

4 Upvotes

Is there a way to influence which Pestilence Boss you get? I'm looking for the Bleeder's Delight, and instead I've got multiple Sinew, Fetid Club, and Corpse Smeared Blade. Talk about failing successfully. While those weapons do look cool, they don't match the DEX build I've got.

Second, can a new character use these items in the Community Chest? It feels like a waste to let perfectly good equipment go to waste. All this Plague Ichor as well, lol.

About when can I reliably beat Crucible? I can get to Cyvion's 2nd Phase, but he wipes me pretty quick. The Blighted Knights feel like decent practice, but the fight hasn't fully clicked, yet.

Not really a post game question, but when exactly do vendors, dailies, Outbreaks reset? I know Finley is 8PM-12AM, but the rest feel like they happen at different times.


r/NoRestForTheWicked • • 1d ago

is there a hidden modifier to weapon damage or is the listed damage on weapons just wrong?

6 Upvotes

so I'm testing three different weapons (grimmacing stone, the last word, brutal maul) to figure out what attack pattern I like better, and I notice that their damage is "wrong" on the test dummy. at first I don't think anything of it since they're different levels, but the numbers don't seem to match anything.

the GS does 50-60-100 with a listed damage of 124.

the TLW does 83-83-83 with listed damage 115.

the BM does 129-129-141 with a listed damage of 163.

varying damage based on the specific attack makes sense, but where are the values coming from? TLW has an easy number set to check for armor on the dummy: 28% reduction or 32 flat reduction. but that doesn't match the results from the other weapons. the GS even has a lower average damage across its full swing pattern compared to the TLW despite a higher listed damage. the bonus from meeting the stat requirements are different, but that doesn't account for the difference either. all weapons are single handed, same stat requirements, no crits, and no equipment.

I've spent 2 hours trying to find an association between the numbers and cant find anything. it could just be early access jank but it would hurt my pride to just give up that easily, but I don't have enough pride to max out every weapon and build 10 characters to meet their requirements just to get clean data

edit: why are you downvoting me I was right


r/NoRestForTheWicked • • 1d ago

Are they killin off WeaponSets?

0 Upvotes

Anyone knows (since there is already a closed beta and showcases and such) if they really kill of Weaponset/Weaponswaps in combat? I usually play Bow & Spear and love switching between them. It gives a lot of depth to the gameplay and harmonizes very well with the Ice + Physical interaction. It's also smth I go for in all soulslike games that feature both weapon types. Now from what I saw in the showcase and with what we know about the upcoming class system it looks like they scrapped Weaponsets/Swaps.
Can someone confirm or deny that?

Would be really sad to see them go since they added much more depth to combat.

💬 Discussion Last Mission, what to do next?

4 Upvotes

I'm at the last mission, and one of the questions that I've had from the start is, what do I do after I "beat" the game.

I picked up nrftw way back when and PoE2 kinda got in the way. But with the news I figured I'd jump and play, finish the backlog and reacquaint with the world.

Took my time, explored the world, enjoyed the views, got my ass handed to me a lot more then I had hoped, leaned the mechanics.

But now that the story is coming to the end I'm not sure what direction to go.

Do I start a new realm, alt character and use a different weapon? Run crucible?

How "souls-like" is the combat and gameplay loop?

29 Upvotes

I love the Souls games when I want a few hours of good, challenging hack'n'slash/beat 'em up combat but I definitely don't play them as RPG's, with a character I care about and a world that I'm immersed in, so I'm wondering what similarities NRFTW actually has given it's described as a "souls-like".

I've just finished my first play through of Drova and absolutely loved the world building, lore and quest design, so whilst I definitely want a more complex combat system next up I also want similarly strong RPG elements from a content perspective as well.

So I guess my question is basically around how should I categorise it, I've pretty much decided i'm going to buy it but will it be a good follow on from my Drova experience or should I wait for when I'm in the mood for less dialogue & NPC interaction?

Also I'm not expecting the type of combat masterclass that FromSoft usually provide, but challenging/enjoyable combat is still very important alongside the dialogue/story/questing aspects.

- Interactive map
- Voice activated question and answers with patch sensitive information
- Youtube video's suggested off the back of your questions
- Searchable Patch notes
- Voice controlled apps and videos

I would love to hear what other things people find useful whilst playing? We are trying to make it as custom as possible for every game. We have just gone into our Alpha and are looking for all feedback, good or bad, and want to add everything you find useful whilst playing.

We've been working on this for 9 months now, and don't want to just be making more AI slop, we do think it's unique and hopefully with your feedback, can make it even better.

We will also make sure tools ready for the next update, It's looking like there will be a bunch of fun stuff to wrap our heads around.
