Atlanteans stats being increased: too much powercreep?

bro pls stop making such a big deal over a name :sob:

You can’t do anything about that really, that’s why everytime someone asks me to help em with Elius I just tell them to go buy and enchant iron armor, that works 90% of the time

i just think it’s a bad name, that’s all

Can we instead discuss the implications of the meta this could bring instead of arguing about what people call it?

God this is insane, it’s a naming convention, you can make statism and fight against stat segregation, but do it in silence

i dont see how this will change the meta much
for defense its like 14 extra defense so thats not too much
and for the other stats it does make a big diff but it also helps with diversity so i see this as a good buff

still doubt people will use the modifier much for substats

I could care less if people call it a stat or a sub stat (I’m only going to call it stat since by now the stats should be equal in usability)

Armor stats already are kinda bloated in this meta, and we’re barely 1/8th into the game as of its level cap, so I’m really iffy on giving a modifier a boost so it’s essentially a second exotic scroll on armor

a second exotic enchant on armor with a catch that makes you practically have to either use warding potions constantly, or run virtuous

Secondary stats usually get a focus in armor builds, mainly agility in this one, and not usually a small amount either

A catch of… a slight annoyance every few seconds

It’s like if a person got something that made them very strong but now they got a fly going in circles around their head

power and defense are still more important in most builds and i doubt that will change

sure if youre only running 1 or 2 atlantean pieces i can understand seeing insanity as only a slight annoyance. But insanity 3 or higher literally requires you to use warding if you want to play normally

if they give it a boost, every single other method of getting stats needs a nerf

bro what :skull:

Most people run 1-2 Atlantean essences on builds already from what I’ve seen

And I’m pretty sure insanity 2 is just text boxes in the lower screen so it’s a possibility that people just run 2 with a bunch of other exotic scrolls and just ignore it, effectively giving them like 7 exotic scrolls worth of stuff

ive seen the exact opposite so far but i can see why you think the modifier to be too op when only 1-2 are being used. Maybe the stats the modifier gives can be based on the amount of total insanity you have

imagine how ABSURD the powercreep/stat bloat will be the next few updates if we’re already at a stat total average of like 500 at level 125

vetex already said that thats a problem he will fix once it actually becomes a problem

Yeah if the stats were smaller for having smaller amounts of atlantean, but bigger at higher insanity amounts, i’d be okay with it since then you have to run warding alongside it as insanity at that point can become an issue

someone considered doing that i think, you can probably ask a friend to go along, hit some atlanthean and let them kill it for you to get the exp ( i have no idea if they even give exp tbh )
