Not sure how this will go. Like most I have a vague idea from the dev vid, but no really idea how to prep. Dismantling my base on test PVE because I need to study more PVP building vids.
In the video they mentioned siege camps and taking war parties out to attack them. easy enough for a clan, but what about a soloist?
How would I work it? Or will ch2 intro some squad control mechanic?
The only option I see is resetting my skills and taking thralls out 2 at a time, and hope the last 2 last long enough to bring out the next 2.
I’d like to say they should really allow some sorta epic boosting capabilities for non-followers or at the very least command options… but I highly doubt they’ll do anything of the sort. I suspect without a large amount of heavily geared, top tier thralls, we’re likely gonna lose a bunch of thralls. Their “fix” was pretty likely the faster breaking times and boost to darfari damage. Seems pathetic if you ask me, but I doubt they gave much thought to true tactics and survivability in the purges. It’s gonna be more akin to throwing a bunch of meat at a fan blade and hoping you don’t lose much.
Most likely, the purpose of purge will be different.
If the attackers now seek to kill everyone they meet and destroy everything they can reach, then the Stygians will have the task of getting to the treasures and carrying them away.
Therefore, presumably, they will strive to break through to the treasure room in the shortest way, and in this direction destroy the walls and kill the defenders.
That is, it will be possible to gather all the forces for protection in one place.
