Features that should be REMOVED from the game

Unless spirit is reworked from ground up, no dev time will save it from being a shittier version of magic and weapons

42

It’s clear the game doesn’t need more development time whatsoever, it needs competence in its developers as virtually every feature arrives with some bugs or performance issues despite the many testers available.

I was so dissapointed when Vitality was dropped for the magic/weapon copying Spirit we have now, it literlaly doesn’t have its own identity other than being “the fourth stat that copies the weapon equipping and works like magic but isn’t magic”

43

Seeing vitality being turned into a defensive/support class would’ve honestly been kinda cool

Would give all four classes their own styles
Magic - Range
Weapons - Versatility
Strength - Aggression
Vitality - Defense

Definitely would be a better concept than the tower shield, resistance and regen dogshit we have today

imagine a warden build with the 7k defense set + metal resistance aura :fire:

real
The fact that AO is supposed to be an RPG (specifically ARPG) but doesn’t have a way of becoming super tanky without using relatively janky ways is downright silly, I want to become a tank to absorb a boss’ health whilst my buddy shoots from afar, LIKE A TANK IS SUPPOSED TO DO.

Anything that isnt mage :joy_cat:

47

No, armor piercing is AMAZING

48

Unfortunately not only is there not a tank in AO but I’m not even sure if there is a proper aggro system either. That said, I do think that bosses probably should not head in this direction since it can very quickly lead to the very boring playstyle you see in a lot of mmorpgs: tank takes aggro, everyone else sits there and mashes buttons.

Would be fine with Spirit/Vitality still being tanky though, but it could be used in more interesting ways like a tether beam that can either connect to allies (the damage they take is split to you) or enemies (the damage you take is partially dealt back to them)

Ngl the people that shouldnt be developing ao is 1. forumers and 2. vetex
