Teslive preview

[Alex02]

Just picked up few interesting improvements I saw on the Teslive and wanted to share you.

• Now you have debuff icons on mobs healthbar, you also have a stack counter right to each icon but it’s really unreadable. Would be better to have the stack counter on top of icons with bigger police:
  

  

• New armorer spot in Sepermeru close to the Razma house. We finaly have a lvl 4 armorer spawn in this city :
  

  

• Razma now looks like the chick in the trailer :
  

  

• You can now find Derketo priest on the Pagoda :
  

  

• There an epic chest behind the giant snake in the Triumvirate citadel, and of course the snake loot a skeleton key :
  

  

• All armorers can now craft silk in armorer’s bench. Not so usefull with lvl 1 cause it’s still 2 gossamers for 1 silk, but you can now craft silk at home instead of on your character. From lvl 2 and more, armorers can craft 1 silk with only 1 gossamer ! Would be nice also if armorers can make thick leather with some regular leathers, like 3 for 1.
  

  

• Irniz the Furnace can now craft epic flawless zamorian armor set :
  

  

• Blacksmith lvl 3 and 4 can now craft exceptional and flawless obsidian weapons :
  

  

• Last but not least, votaries npcs in volcano and dungeon now have loots on their corpses, but serpent-men still not…
  

  

All those little improvements please me, I’m glad to see how the game progress. Keep the good work @Funcom

Thanks for posting that!
I really needed some good news about this game.

Here, have some cake

I think all of those where mentioned in TL patch notes except new armorer spawn in Sepermeru and debuff icons. Anyway, thanks for checking them up.

P.S. I wonder if we will see an influx in Derceto arch priest numbers since there is only one(?) Derceto priest spawn point, so players who have settled nearby will have real fast way to “rotate” spawn of this type of priest.

Few new stuff I found today :

• First heavy attack combo with spear now have a dash move

• Daggers light attacks now have 4 combo

• Flawless obsidian spear is better than kingslayer spear
  

• You can find lvl 4 Forgotten Tribe thralls in Mounds of the dead :
  

  

• Lvl 4 in New Asagarth too :
  

  

• When the water is not deep enough to swim but has a level above the hips, the character is slow and has a special walking animation :

@Alex02

Flawless obsidian spear is better than kingslayer spear

Whoosh… a massive 19% nerf to kingslayer damage. RIP.

The black dragon pike was nerfed too, down to 52 from 55 and with a 1% loss in pen.

The real issue will be the first heavy animation and how it works in practice. What do you think of it?

The risk is that the defensive fighting capabilities of pikes will be lost if your erstwhile short heavy attack move now thrusts you into the fray. Pikes might well be consigned to the compost heap if that’s the case. At least with respect to what I used them for.

It was a bit daft that the optimum way to fight was to use a pike and consciously not use combos, but I really hate losing control of my character while a long attack animation plays out or being unable to fight from my chosen position due to being launched all over the map when I attack.

It works like the sword first heavy animation but faster and not so far. Looks like an assault weapon now, I guess it’s would be better for pvp.
