Because this is a durability thread, so wanted to update. I did not take a side, but just presented data to those who cant test out. Its called sharing so some get an idea of what to expect. Take a sip of Courvoisier and chill.
Well not everyone uses thralls, I hate to rely on the dumb AI of a companion.
I am perfectly chill thanks, if you think I have some menace in my words it’s not intended as such
And ibinderstand that. TBH, i rarely use them. But for testing purposes i am deviating from my norm. And again ,the question was asked so i gave what i have experienced to help answer.
Currently farming UC solo with annihilator base durability 3500 and world breaker base durability 4500
1 UC boss takes 10 hits to kill from my sword and 1 skeleton takes 2 hits from my hammer.
5x bosses (only trying to get BoSW and Sword of Crom) every 15 mins = 20 kills / hour = 200 durability / hour on my sword and I’ll say 100 skeletons and hour if I’m not avoiding so 200 durability / hour from my hammer.
At this rate I only have 17.5 hours total with my sword, and 22.5 hours total with my hammer in the UC.
Both these weapons have a 25% chance to drop from 1 boss, so 1 hour of farming at most gets me fresh weapons.
thems some numbers
If you dont me asking, what are you specced at?
Age of Nope
So a undead 3 skull boss has 4940 HP and you say you kill them in 10 hits…that’s 494 damage per a hit?
all boss have been dramatically nerfed
you don’t even have to bother with an armor and thralls, i got a wright blade at level 5 in killing the crocodile boss with stone dagger, so i decided to visit our blue ghost friend at around level 15 with fiber cloth let's use the wright blade, but no loot in unammed city - YouTube
Thanks for the video, @azaroth .
All in all, a bad combination.
The AI is as dumb as it has always been.
The stamina drainage is INSANE. You can’t get creative in fighting. That sucks.
Lower HP makes them die too fast.
Well, why prolonging 1,2 roll fights anyway?..
Very disappointing to see what awaits us.
yes the only way to fight is one hit and dodge, it is not even a matter of choice, there is no other option.
I imagine if you get hit once it’s back to the desert but not difficult to do if you get on a good server with low ping. I really hope it don’t release in this state, but judging past updates I have a feeling it will.
nope it dont kill you, you can take 2-3 hit in fiber cloth, depend of the boss, for the wright he was never able to hit me so i have no idea of damage he do, so far all pve content i encountered is nerfed to death.
SAV rolling thrust. Hitting special attacks from behind. With sword of crown and strength armor/food/potions you can take down these bosses in 6 or less hits.
Bit what level was he? I have fought at level 60 now, and 2 grit i can easily finish light/heavy combos. It now requires to use a combination of light and heavy, instead of spamming heavy, but makes for a skilled combo system. Trying out L,L,H,L or L,H,L,H seems to give a better nuance to what combos should be.
Hope you’re right, @biggcane55 . I seldom use only heavy combos. Still, it seems too taxing.
I hope I eat my words when I try, honesty.
I use them
I hope otherwise it would mean I missed a boss which would crash my personal archievment “kill every boss in the game at least once”
I use thralls as well
Everything about this update is trash
Yikes, that seems like a very limited lifespan on something which requires an awfully large amount of grinding (for a specific item). Thanks for the intel @azaroth. I still find myself leaning away from this change and hope it does not proceed.
yes but in fact it will not be a problem to find a lot of legendaries weapons as 90% of 3 skulls boss are very easy to kill now, problem will occur for the unique legenday weapons you like to use, may be rng drop will be on your side and in this case you will have lot of duplication. but we all know what rng drop means,
i played a lot beta now, and higlhy suggest that devs give a way to repair legendary (especially because not all of legendary weapons have a lot of durability; i saw one dagger with very low durability coming from a chest)
i do no understand reason to this change, but if they dont want to make work repair kit , at least make work again some unique item that are hard to craft or acquire to work again for repairing legendary, god breaker armor piece and nemedian helmet because by this way you are also removing this content that have no more use in actual state. and may be time to stop remove content ;(
