Nice update. Little bit of both balance and content. I like :)



GearzHeadz -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/13/2014 15:07:12)

Oh my gosh they actually listened to some of the things that needs fixing. Thank you devs you've restored so much hope in me!



Dual Thrusters -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/13/2014 15:08:58)

I'll try my tech Cyber again😃

What's this in layman's terms?

So far all I can make out is: the energy cost is 130 divided by the level which is better or greater than 125 divided by the level?

Slashes and arrows at the main culprit of my confusion.



WhiteTiger -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/13/2014 17:50:07)

^It means that the energy cost was previously 110 energy at skill level 1 + 20 energy per skill level increase and it is now 110 energy at skill level 1 + 15 energy per skill level increase.



Mecha Mario -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/13/2014 17:50:15)

@Digital X:

In your example: At level 1, it costs 110 Energy Points. Every time you invest one skill point into a skill, its going to cost more energy points to use as you level up the skill. Previously in that example, it used to increase by 20 Energy Points per level. Now after this update, its going to increase by 15 Energy Points per level. Example:

Old Energy Costs for Shadow Arts:
    1. 110
    2. 130
    3. 150
    4. 170
    5. 190
    6. 210
    7. 230
    8. 250
    9. 270
    10. 290
New Energy Costs for Shadow Arts:
    1. 110
    2.125
    3. 140
    4. 155
    5. 170
    6. 185
    7. 200
    8. 215
    9. 230
    10. 245

Fixed a mistake. Did it on the fly first time.

Thanks.

@Mecha Mario

New Energy Costs for Shadow Arts:
1. 110
2.125
3. 140
4. 165
5. 180
6. 195
7. 210
8. 225
9. 240
10. 265
~Mecha Mario


Um wait, is that the proper scaling?

Level 3 to 4 should be 140 to 155 and 9 to 10 should be 230 to 245, unless there is something I missed. Mistake on my part. Has been fixed in my post. ~Mecha

About the actual balance though, I like it. Finally the right skills have been buffed. Plasma Grenade is very usable now, Shadow Arts is still kind of weak but getting there. Energy Parasite also still needs a buff but more about burst drain rather then damage. And Double Strike is now maxable to some extent, it should be at level 1, 130 or 140 EP though. Even though it has a 1 turn cooldown, its kind of useless if you run out of energy that fast for an attack that can miss.



Exploding Penguin -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/13/2014 19:04:36)

new quest chain is tons of free money if you're high enough level. I think I got 8-9k credits in half an hour or so.



dfo99 -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/13/2014 20:34:17)

9k is a "tons" of credits? lol



GearzHeadz -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/13/2014 22:25:04)

To an average player, yes.

This is like saying that legendary rank 20 being high-leveled is a joke. Exactly how much play time would one have to put in to reach rank 20?



One Winged Angel1357 -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/14/2014 20:14:21)

The story is a good read but really I'm not a fan of the Might Equals Right thing we have going on here.

Oh he's stronger than me in this battle his cause must be the just one.

Personally I enjoyed some of the back scratching we had to do in previous chains but god knows how long this chain would be if we had to scratch the back of everyone on this list



Dual Thrusters -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/15/2014 1:58:31)

None of my friends have been active lately, so I can't do the 2v1 bosses 😩



martinsen5 -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/15/2014 6:48:34)

@Dual Thrusters, I teamed up with a complete stranger yesterday and we managed to beat both bosses eventually. Just ask around and someone will help [;)]



ScarletReaper -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/15/2014 8:28:50)

Yea I did the same thing. Found a guy around my level who was a techmage.

i hope that this not keeps progressive if the legion keeps losing (30, 60, 90, 120/180... mins and 1.5x, 2x, 2.5x/3x... to infinite)



Silver Sky Magician -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/16/2014 16:08:50)

Just noticed that the Overlord Guard, who is a Legion member, is 'friends' with Oz - to the extent that he is unwilling to arrest him. And, queerly, that his superiors have noted that an important Exile figure is chilling in Central Station without anyone bothering to confront him. I'm going to regard the second point as a plot hole for now, but the first is interesting. Might mutual hatred of Alydriah bring Legion and Exile together? To what extent do the non-Alydriah Legionnaires serve Baelius - do they simply strive to preserve order?



One Winged Angel1357 -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/16/2014 16:30:32)

@^ Alydriah has always been on the extreme end of things and her story goes as far as to say she could care less about Exile or Legion she just wants power.

quote:

At this point it is clear that Alydriah has abandoned the modicum established by Baelius. She has begun a crusade the likes of which humanity will never forget once the hammer falls upon the warring Factions of Delta V. She is unbridled vengeance manifest. Her word is law and her resolve is unwavering. She will crush the Exiles and disband the Legion, for whom her distaste is not hidden. The world she seeks to create is one of order by fear


So have Legion members not liking Alydriah in my mind is to be very much expected.

I have to agree about Oz and the Overlord Guard but sometimes a friend on the other side is a very powerful tool. As for who is using who I have no clue and I really want to see where this is going

you not understand what i try say. in a game that bots cost 45k (basic equipament) and the lengendary mode cost 885k, 9k is a joke, the most cheap bot of game cost 20k.



DeathGuard -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/18/2014 0:06:18)

@dfo99: You don't want the credits? Well, if you think it is low, why don't try to earn them? Have fun having approximately 282 fights to be done in 1 vs 1 and try winning them all in a row. Wouldn't be nice wouldn't it? Be grateful for the rewards. I'm actually against giving such rewards since players tend to be greedy and ungrateful even if given what they want.



Bagofbricks -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/18/2014 9:04:43)

@dfo: this was pulled from the design notes

Overlord Ops
Lower level players may find the Lionhart Alliance missions too challenging, but don't fret, the Overlord Guard could use your help! Even with an invasion fleet looming overhead, he's still trying his best to enforce law and order in the Overlord Facility. Help him do his duty for a sizeable reward!

Notice the bolded part, which indicates it is more of an aid to lower levels, which it certainly does a good job of in my opinion, having a character at lvl 23 and one at 16.



lionblades -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/18/2014 16:07:05)

Devs forgot to cap legendary ranks at 100...Comicalbiker is rank 101 right now -_-



Mother1 -> RE: =ED= June 13th, 2014 - Patch Notes - 1.6.16 (6/18/2014 16:13:01)

@ lionblades

Even so there are only 60 ranks that can be used. once you max out everything unless you add more options for the ranks the extra's have no effect on battle.
