How will the new attribute system effect current tralls and pets?

So I been seeing the news and there is 1 question that has been on my mind regarding the new attribute system? I searched around and can’t find an answer, so I thought I would ask here.

Been playing the game for about a couple weeks now, I am enjoying it a lot and my base has all different type of pets and thralls. some archers, some fighters, a decent amount of greater animals, etc. What will happen to them with this new attribute system? Will they be reset to level 1, will their current stats be converted to the new system? All of them are level 10+, a handful of them are even max level.

I don’t think it will have any affects on thrall attributes so far. Maybe it is getting a revamp in the future too but for now it will stay the same since the thrall attributes never been 199% comparable to player attributes.

Ya but they are removing some stats and changing them like survival, accuracy, encumbrance, etc. Like for my archers, some have crazy high accuracy but low agility cause that is how they leveled up. When 3.0 hit, will accuracy be taken away and then I am stuck with archers with low agility meaning low AF archery skills? That is honestly my main concern is how my archers will be effected.

As I said I’m pretty sure it stays the way it is for now since thrall attributes have nothing to do with your attributes. Survival for thralls is also different than it has been for players for example.

I’m pretty sure thralls will be updated despite what @therryy said – but I’m guessing. Nothing in the Dev Stream confirmed this or denied it. But here’s why I think thralls will be changed:

  • Followers and thralls will be updated (health and damage nerfed by as much as 50%)
  • There will be a “down but not out” system for thralls added
  • Attributes on armor and weapons are being changed to the new system

So they seem to be aware that the Attribute changes will impact other systems in the game AND that thralls are getting updated as well. So putting two and two together sounds like thralls will be updated to the new Attributes. To be fair though, that was not confirmed in the Dev Stream.

I mean yeah they are being updated in terms of health and damage but they never mentioned anything about thrall attributes being changed despite talking about the topic for a while. Could be happening anyways but since those two are two separate systems with different influence it doesn’t have to be change necessarily. Also the pick up system won’t be coming with this patch and they are working on improving thralls for future patches so IF they change the attributes it’s gonna be with an update after 3.0 I assume

My speculation is that the first npcs we will sacrifice will be our old ones :wink:.

@OkamiNexos welcome to the community, the history has given us that the most expendable in every huge update are our old thralls and pets. In a “recent” update of Siptah official release, I couldn’t even use the baby rhinos or horses I had on my preservation box, I had to go and farm new.
I know that you feel for the time that it doesn’t worth to play the game, but I will inform you that it does. It’s been years… Thousands of followers, millions of building pieces and items…
All these is just gaming time, nothing else. Fun!
I know the feeling right now, maybe you are even “attached” with your thralls but what is telling you for sure right now that you will play this game for the next 3 months until the update “might” arrive, it’s just a promise of a “goal” we have, not a deadline. Nobody knows for sure exactly when and nobody can tell. So I will advice you to keep on playing your game and achieve the most knowledge you can. 2 weeks is a really sort time, extremely sort actually for the content of just one map, I play years and I am still learning new things, go figure :man_shrugging:. Relax, play, enjoy and leave “tomorrow” for tomorrow :wink:. Have fun m8, Welcome to the forum and feel free to ask anything that bothers you for the game as it is now, trust me, it has a lot.

Expect them to stay the same in effect. Since the toon doesn’t have complicated attribute assignments, its definition is surely hard coded.

Thanks for the welcome, a friend of mine got me hooked in the game so I been playing it non stop. Killed a couple bosses and got a decent base going. I am going to keep leveling up my thralls and if they end up being useless after the update, ill keep them for memory. Will be slightly annoying since I grinded them all to level 10+ but it isn’t the end of the world honestly. Just got to go knock out more thralls in the purge at that point. Even if they just get reset back to level 1, I would be alright with that as they weren’t to hard to level up that much. My highest thralls is Fann Deg and my greater komodos and shalebacks.

Thanks for the welcome also! I hope thralls get changes with the player honestly. I am also hoping they dont take the lazy way and all current thralls stats are just wiped or such. They take a little time to make it so the current stats get transferred to the new system if anything. That or possibly reset them back to level 1. I would prefer that over them becoming useless and building dust.

The pleasure is mine fellow exile. One hint, if you may. Blunded fitting does the truncheon more effective. So if you have iron or steel truncheon place this upgrade. Take your strongest thrall and a horse to visit the unnamed city. You will find npcs inside there called relic hunters. The mini boss is a hero, try to avoid or kill, but in your level it’s better to avoid. So try to lure a fighter of these relic hunters and knock him/her down with your best thrall.
Having a relic hunter for thrall your gaming will immediately go to another level, cheers :wink:.

Ill keep that in mind, thanks for the help with that!
