Full Release Update Patch Notes (Discussion Thread) (Part 2)

youre not supposed to eat a fish dinner mid fight. youre supposed to be able to go a couple fights without eating

Energy has been reworked, millions must max out cooking

You’re telling me you don’t slam down a burger mid-fight?

Shouldn’t food benefit scale with energy cap though? Because that would mean that everyone progressively gets hungrier with power, which is not established. At level 140 you’d be eating 660 food points, which is like, 80ish green apples?

I wonder, since Energy Regeneration gems have been reworked into Energy Efficiency, will the potion do the same, only much stronger (such as E.Efficiency 5 potions making your attacks basically drain NO energy for the duration?)

probably
if they both did the same thing that is now being reworked i wouldn’t guess the rework would only apply to one of those things, especially if the un-reworked version just doesn’t make work with the system anymore

Coppershroom meta is finally real…

FINALLY, a real reason for me to have max alchemy pvp wise!

fr, if thats the case (i’ll test it when the update drops) i’ll have an actual reason to use potions more aggressively

40% Energy efficiency on top of the 90% base attack energy cost reduction is going to go crazy

you’ll be able to fight non stop for SO long

Womification of AO begins now

This wouldn’t really be the case unless the fight was dragged on for so long or you were skill spamming, since every skill now takes nearly nothing to use & can be reduced even further with energy efficiency gems. At that point, that was basically your fault for getting that low mid fight.

This means I get to more often use my favorite form of close-up punishment as mage, a 5x Plasma self-explosion ultimate art.
Surge is mid-range and mid, change my mind.


With currently known gear you could get a total of 12 gem slots, each you could slot with a +5% energy efficiency gem. If you really wanted to you could get 60% energy efficiency.

Aren’t there also a 3 gem slot hat and cloak?

max gem count is 14, full theurgist set and any other 2 slot accessory.

Plus there’s also Musgravite for doubled the amount

Granted, it’s practically a weak gimmick build at that point, but it would be REALLY funny

Would you really need that anymore? the idea is that you don’t even run out, it’d be used less than Potency.

A small price to pay to basically never have to eat again after one decent meal

I mean, not having to eat constantly is always really good, and its still an easier stat to get the max of for your gems than blocking power
