Title: Recent & Upcoming Changes
Post by: Draca on April 21, 2024, 09:20:28 am
Changes...and not.

 First, some changes I didn't make.

I had previously announced changes to Guardian Charm that would have made it pretty useless after level 75, I have shelved those changes. It's difficult to pull the trigger on changes as drastic as that, there's a whole back and forth (in my head) about whether, given the amount of time it's been as-is, it's the right thing to do to change it. Not to say it may not happen in the future, but for now it remains as is.

 T10 - Sunderock

 We have made some changes to Tier 10, that will reduce the amount of time required to complete it.

 These include:

• Lowered plagueborn kill count (from 1000 to 750)
• Increased faction gained per kill quest completion (previous base 75, new base 125)
• Lowered T10 Expedition cooldown (from 48 to 36 hours)
• Faction weapon quest count reduced (from 100 to 60)
• Boss soul drops increased slightly
• Sarnak boss spawn chance increased

T11 - Kael Drakkel

Tier 11 is also going to see some changes related to it's current difficulty. Both trash and bosses will have a hit point and damage reduction to bring it down to a more playable difficulty for the average player.

 I have started and stopped on several long winded explanations about Kael's difficulty, but ultimately it is just incredibly difficult to tune content without going too far one way or the other, so we've resisted any major changes to Kael until we had enough data logging to make an informed decision. It's still a bit of a guessing game, but it's time to take our best guess. Expect these changes shortly.

Has Tunare expedition mobs been changed? They are hitting harder than Kael mobs.
