Following update we noticed that all of our named bearers have only 640 health. I know the levels were changed but I believe this may be an error. We compared to a level 3 bearer whose health is 1680. Hopefully this can be resolved.
The levelling system no treats all placeable thralls from each tribe the same as far as stats go, so when you place it the thrall should have a base set of attributes that you can then level up, sole tribes start with 0 vitality and really low health, but i’ve personally not seen any thralls that low so it could be that the stats didn’t get updated properly during the update
I’ve included a list of thralls starting stats (this is not an official list) so if you can check off that the thrall has the right stats for the list it might help Devs find an issue
Ah, yeah so what happened is the old thralls have base 0 in all stats so they are next to useless, only new thralls will get stats and from there you will need to level them up to get the most out of them
I understand that, but to have a level 3 with 1680 health and a named with only 640 health seems like a mistake. Both the level 3 and the named were placed before the update.
You can’t really judge based on thralls placed before the update, the stats on them all are wonky, you’ll really need to compare the same thralls from post update, possibly spawn them in on a solo world to test them
Although I appreciate your input the post is reporting a bug following the update. The thralls I have are what I have and even though the game has given us a new system the old thralls should still follow logical progression from level 1 through level 3 with the named thrall having the highest stats.
Our 60 odd followers are no 18 strong.
I have had Featherstep since the first opening week.
She is one of 5 thralls I cant kill off. I even have a gold reward it she is spotted. Untill then, we are using Enia The light. At level zero she was 880hp, now at lvl 7 she is 3600ish HP and growing.
Me thinks either the DEVs try and see how much we will take before a mass exodus happens, OR they are clueless.
I have done a 180 degree john kerry and flipped over to liking the new stuff. The horse are preform lack luster, the follower cap is too low, and the NGE new game experience already ruined one great MMO.
I am a little confused tho, as you said you had a level 3 placed before the update and a named level 0 also placed before the update. Are you referring to a tier 3 (level 0) and a tier 4 (named level 0)?
At that point you would have to verify if the tier 3 and tier 4 came from the same faction. If so, then that could be a bug. If not then that’s most likely your answer as to the descrepancy.
Old thralls that were placed before the update rolled are intentionally less powerful and they won’t work with the new level system. They were kept just so players have time to retrieve their items and replace them, as they’re severely underpowered in comparison to a fully leveled thrall.
There are no plans to tweak or adjust legacy followers.
