[Kaz_LOTB]

This is the main post to discuss tuning changes that are in an upcoming update.

You can see the details for the preliminary tuning adjustments in the Game Updates forum post.

Nice changes. Helps to get most overpowered chars under control like Gambler, Killer Beast and Malakhov.

Quite a lot going on there for sure.

Odd to see poor old Soldier Eddie being demoted to 3 star (is he the first Eddie demotion we have seen?) so they must be gearing him up for the new Gunner/Assassin based dungeon that is coming soon which uses natural 3 stars. So is that Storm, Soldier, Gangland we can use there - I can never remember which are 3 stars!


Shaman (getting Perfect Bleed) and other Book of Souls characters liek Necro and Mayan Priestess (getting immunity to Sleep and Perfect Sleep) going to be in another new dungeon so they are getting a freshen up too - all of that look sfine and even a wee nerf to Gambler!

Good boost to Mariner - nto sure it wil make him that much better.

And some fixes to broken talisman...cant even remember what Brave talies are!

Rider tallies look decent on the right team and very good to see upgrade materials getting a push as we are really needing this I am sure.

Not sure on the souls - do we have these yet and what is Dark Ghost...never heard of ti I dont think?


Cheers

Flight of Icarus Eddie's future ability has a 35% chance of inflicting Dark Ghost. It's like regular Ghost but as a silver effect instead of golden effect afaik

Mariner basic attack will transfer all negative effects from alll allies to target. Clear silver from all allies basic attack is quite useful, broken now if opponent have immunity to silver. This makes Ancient Mariner best cleaner in game. Brave is 6 piece green set (deer head picture) giving random offensive and defensive buff to holder when it takes damage. Really really useless right now. Dark Ghost is debuff Flight of Icarus Eddie can inflict. Silver ghost.

It would be great if there was something in the description of each of the dungeon keys that indicated the possible rewards for playing there. There are so many dungeon keys now that I have to go look up online which dungeon has whatever item I am after.

The Gambler nerf seems a little pointless, I don’t think his immunity transformation is what made him a must pick in the arena. Soldier Eddie’s buffs are okay, they’ll only be useful for 3 star dungeons. Necropolis is going to be difficult to face off against if he is able to decrease max hp extremely easily. The Brave Talisman buff is quite good, even though it could be negated by permadeath on the other allies. It’s good that Orbit got fixed. Kinda was hoping for more changes to older Eddies like Grim Reaper and such, but this’ll do for now.

Ah right - never really used Mariner much at all except in gauntlet as he just did not seem to be great but if cleaning is his game then that looks to be a decent buff. Not got Icarus and not faced him much but useful to know for when I do get him...whenever that is!

I actually do have a brave set but again really not used them much at all as they did not seem that useful.

I am all for more dungeons - the more the better as it does at least give us something to spend SoT on when there is not an event.

My son has a new account and he pulled soldier Eddie last night and he is natural 3 stars. When was he 4 stars?

Also last week I pulled a sentinel soulless demon and he was only 3 stars anyone else have one of those?
