Re-peated attempts to solidify hated/stupid features

Game Discussion

IF it worked like this then I wouldn’t really be mad

it’s just that the mechanic is balanced in a way where NOT wearing armor is worse

percentage based damage is no joke cuz it literally makes your stat points useless

ALSO, AGAIN the title is " [Re-peated attempts to solidify hated/stupid features]"

not “[Good ideas ruined with bad changes”]

282

This.

283

At this point just delete vanity so noboody will be happy

284

i think they should make it required to wear the mountaineer boots and resistance amulet (poor) as vanity or else you will have one health and also add a 1% chance every tick while running/walking to trip and rag doll with a 30% each trip to break a limb (applied per limb, so multiple limbs can break) and also give ME a custom magic with 12x attack speed that i WILL abuse

285

okay, 12x attack speed, 0x damage, 0.1x size

but yeah, it’s kinda very weird how vanity gives buffs (although it’s relatively small buffs, which only really affect you when you do specific things(vetex, give everyone 3 free vanity loadout saves for this))

286

I think they should make you unable to use magic and only gain stats the more arcanium vanity you wear
Same for fs

287

Ok so, no

Percent damage is indeed rough however did you not read the entire rest of the patch note? Beast protection is not the only way to defend against it. As leveling up also causes beast damage % to decrease. It was explained before beast defense was even added that even though damage is percent based now damage numbers should remain relatively the same.

288

If Mr_hyperspace_anacondapyramid says so then it must be good

289

Sounds good on paper, but have you stepped on a fire DOT? Assuming the damage is similar and we get +40 levels that isn’t gonna fix much

even then this doesn’t justify making my vanity effect things when this can easily be added as an extra to the main armor

either way, you also would need to justify limb loss mechanics cuz this post finds issue with solidifying the mechanic (essentially tying more things to it instead of changing it before hand)

As i said before, if these problems could only be solved with having vanity armor give these effects then id openly welcome them

but vetex can easily take a different route for these types of additions and it loops back to this feature acting like a negative multiplier to player hate

so no you can’t just justify keeping this system cuz “beast protection also slowly increases with levels” because that’s just paper talk
