3.0 Sorcery Megathread

Seens no one commented on the Charisma attribute yet.
Noticed we can have multiple berserkers following now? At least 2 from the perk show.

Yes that was exciting to see. So it looked like a final perk, meaning you’d have to spec all the way into it to obtain it, but it comes at a price; the extra follower meaning a horse and two fighters but the fighters do not gain additional gains that were earned through the lower Charisma perks, or so it seems.

Ummm surge in sepermeru? Maybe Siptah gear incoming.

Surges in the Exiled Lands? That would be cool – have a Sorcerer perform a ‘wild surge’ spell/ritual to drop thralls over an enemy’s base. That would add some PvP elements to base raiding (if the player was the Sorcerer… obviously it would be PvE if the Sorcerer was part of a Purge attack).

A Sorcerer conjuring up a blizzard in the north or sandstorm in the south would be cool, too. Maybe a star metal meteor shower (beware of falling rocks) for some serious base raiding (or resource gathering).

I know it is sounding redundant, but another anti pvp feature. Followers in general hurt pvp. Most fights becime whose thrall is better, and durimg raids a followers ai is > than 20 defenders thrall ai, especially while offlining. They are great for pve, but the more i think about followers the more i realize they are a mahority of the bad pvp elements. So now 2. Yep pve 3.0. Inwill play it like that. Hope they let pvpers transfer their main toon (i have 1 that is about 30 delving recipes short of all 120+) to pve servers.

Question for Funcom: So Q3 2022 means around September 30 (end of Q3)?

Will there be another Grave Matters (October) event this year?

Im particularly curious about this too. I wanted sorcery not just for myself, but to fight NPCs wielding it too.

I really hope not, and it means july 1st.

The stuffed bat glider is awful. I hope there are giant bat and giant pterodactyl mounts like in the Howard book for sorcerers. If the glider is to be used only for non sorcerers though well seen.

Woow, over 200 new messages in this thread and it’s almost all about the battlepass and in-game itemshop. Nobody talks about the cool stuff like the legendary challenge in the challenges menu. It says complete 3 events. To me that sounds like we are going to get world events. That sounds awesome for the pvp and pve players.

Pve players can work together to complete the events and pvp players will have to fight each other to complete the event and possibly get loot or something like that.

One difference though - ESO, WoW, and ToR don’t have mods adding similar content.

After watching the trailer, I’m a bit (very) concerned.
From the video, it does not seem conany to me anymore.

Yeah, it is just a glimpse, but there is no improvement in AI, the environmental effects are the same. Survival is the base element of the game, and still, it is the easiest thing to counter, now with more new weapons, magic, etc. it’s gonna be non-existent.

And the only thing I did not want to see in the game is magic, even at this level of. I know I don’t have to use it if I don’t want to, but even the perk system is rebuilt around it, it seems.
I think it is not a good move to implement magic and such into a game, even if this was their first intention from the beginning. They introduced a game, completely different what they want to add in 3.0, it is not gonna be THE Conan Exiles I (and a lot of others) fell in love with.

I love the game, I will give it a try, but I’m afraid that is gonna be the end for me.
Sure, I could play offline from then, but I have other games in Steam that needs updates (f… Steam, I hate it, it is an unnecessary plus step between purchasing and playing the game, but that’s an other topic), and I just finished my girlfriend’s rig to play with each other.

Before you start insulting, or picking a fight, it is just MY opinion, a concern, not a hatespeech or anything like that.

Don’t say it is going to be the end for you if you don’t know everything that is coming in this update. I think there will be coming much more stuff then you see in this trailer.

A lot of metathesiophobia in this thread atm. So many people that are scared of change.

That’s why there is a separate thread for that now. Even after Andy’s warning, people couldn’t stop so I try to provide the avenue to vent/discuss that over there.

But is that the game or is that your knowledge has increased to the point survival is easier?

I can’t speak for everyone but I see lots of avenue for pvp meta abuse if proper balancing isn’t taken into account. One thing pvprs can do is take something and replicate it to unreasonable levels to gain maximum effect. Low fantasy sorcery replicated 20 to 50 times turns into high fantasy quickly. One alter raising a beast of the netherworld…low. 50 alters cranking out these turns into Warhammer.

So all of this. I do worry we’ll lose the low fantasy aspect that is so crucial to Howard’s world. Having everyone be a sorcerer is like having everyone be a Jedi. I just genuinely hope there are ways to feat block sorcery and to only allow specific players to have it on private servers.

Only if the loot is for a meta build. Anything else is a waste in pvp.

Yeah survival is the last thing i worry about pve wise.

Apearantly 2 followers now. Yepee! Now i can bet on which one of them gets kill shots on bosses[sic].
