Legendary fail, even. (still major DC issues in legendary content) Please release part 2 soon where you increase DC of feats (including free epic and legendary feats), enhancements, epic destinies by a lot. Ideally to match dragonlord, since all casters are just as relying on DCs to land as DL is.

Yeah, if you aboslutely *have* to include gacha (which is really don't agree with), to keep the game running and making enough money. Then at the very least have a "guarantee". All the successful gacha games these days have them too. And the successful MMO aren't so stingy with loot in...

Big balance issue here, after so many quests, all specs should be at like 60% effectiveness. Melee I'd say would higher than 20% too if you have someone tanking or crowdcontrolling. But Nuker and DC caster is just hopeless without an insane grind.

Yes, that was my idea #2, greatly increase DC floor. IMHO it should be similar to martials, who don't need to full focus all their gear, feats, enhancements, EDs on +hit to be able to connect weapon hits at all. Caster DC should be high enough so you can at least hit the saves of mobs without...

Yeah and that's already greater than the difference between "no fail" and "always fail" (that would be 19). So if we don't want lesser geared, lower PL characters completely useless in legendary, we must either move from D20 system, greatly increase DC floor and make DC boosts way more...

Obviously it needs to be balanced right. Ex. D100 system: "No fail" should still attainable just like now (fails only on a mob save roll of 95-100, 5% chance, like a 20 under the D20 system). But the main difference would be that a caster with lower DC would still have a decent chance of...

I think it should be strongly considered. The D20 system doesn't support players having stat differences of 50 (!) or higher. It only supports a few points of difference, since every point is a 5% (!) difference in success chance. Maybe martials remember how frustrating it was before the to-hit...

Fun ? Chatting? Sharing loot? Faster quest completions (split up, kill much faster)? There's plenty of reasons to group with players even if hirelings can do their job. Because if hirelings can't do their job, then they are just useless and not worth summoning.

I have to agree.... does anyone even like repeating the same quest dozens of times? Or does anyone even think this is good gameplay? Compared to for example, every level appropriate quest can give you an upgrade, or you collect tokens and can buy stuff, like many other MMOs do it. The old gear...

Legendary TR should reset first time bonuses. Either that or the other sagas need a huge xp buff to become similar xp / time reward to cogs, so people can do all sagas from 30-38/40. So there's at least some variety. But resetting all first time xp is better so you can also do non saga quests...

The mob saves are even higher than that? This is madness!

Yeah U80 is not ready yet. Needs more caster buffs, not just DCs, damage also. Or even more casters quit / stop spending.

Does SSG have any combat gameplay testers and do they test all archetypes or only martial? Tonquin mostly does bug fixes and itemization, I think. Please SSG test DC viability and time to kill in the game not just theory-crafting. If you do that, you'll realize casters can't remain as is with...

I agree, SSG is losing money because frustrated caster players quit or stop spending money. It's been way too long that casters are underpowered. I can't be too complicated or expensive (dev time wise) to fix caster damage and DC, can it? Compared to what they could gain by caster player...

Yeah there should be a Lam part 3 with caster spell buffs before any nerfs, for sure. Don't let casters remain gimp for yet another patch.

So, you're increasing DC from feats, enhancements and epic destinies soon, right? Because these equipment DC changes don't help too much yet. And concerning proc damage nerfs, maybe making spell dps so much dependent on item procs wasn't the best choice in the first place. But you should be...

Agree, SSG needs to fix melee hirelings positioning and survivability (not only HP and AC but also way higher PRR and MRR) and hireling AI (abilities and spells higher priority than attacking), before melee hirelings become useful. Until then, like so many other hirelings, Mycella only real...

What is a relatively new character to you? From another thread Relatively new characters don't have their DCs >120 so will save spells will work relatively often. Their spell DCs all around will be below 100, so in the useless range for all fort, will, reflex. Agree with all the rest of your...

DC gains mostly only by equipment doesn't work. Since enemy saves are SKY HIGH you'd need to suffer through 100s of quest completions to farm enough gear before your spells work, even on low difficulties. It makes no sense that casters DCs are fine in heroic and to a lesser degree epic and then...

Indeed, not only casters have the DC problems. I think Dragonlord is the only balanced class for DCs, actually. If you're new and you don't have any good gear, get 20 DL levels and go all in for DC with feats, enhancements, trance, epic destinies. Then you can land DCs. Once you get more...
