Testlive Update Age of Sorcery Chapter 2 - Discussion Megathread

The pet nerf is not forever as explained in the stream tho. They are getting more attention as they get real attacks. The reason for the nerf is to rebaseline their abilities so they can be readjusted upward to an intentional level, instead of an accidental one. So unlike previous nerfs, this one will be slowly reversed to a degree, but having pets are never going to be as good as having thralls. This is to reflect their relative ease of taming and capture.

Who would have thought that all new cool and most wanted things would be bazaar items only…
=D
I mean stormglass v2, maze, garden greenery, wall ivy, bathtubbs!!! (rip), thrall\pet cages, undead pets
Prayers to the gods for prices…
But ok, some BP rewards are quite a work of art…

I would hope the dog skins are also for wolves…since exiled lands don’t have dogs and no way to get them.

Foxes? What is the base pet?

Denversetti · 2022-11-14T15:00:01.303Z

Yep very odd, funcom cant sell pets, only skins, so… no basic dogs, foxes on El, how so?
Undead dogs doesn’t look like dog skins too (i mean for new mastiff like dogs)…

Holy crap! That double door frame looks 4X2 if those are true double doors. That means complete redesigns of my previous work…no plug and play for gates/ double doors.

No I can see it. Take away the muscle and skin and the big baddy mastiff looks like an oversized terrier as far as skeletons are concerned.

We just need 2x2 frames and gate doors for them =(

Lucidique · 2022-11-14T16:59:50.326Z

If I had to guess the base pet for the fox, I’d say hyena

Denversetti · 2022-11-14T17:16:22.471Z

I dont get this idea about double door frame, so what’s the point, seems size of actual entrance is standard (so you cant go though with mounts anyway).
Large arch look like 2x3.
The whole idea of 2x2 frames\doors - have a working passage for you and thralls\mounts without giant 3x4 gates and walls around.

Here’s another pic of the weapon on the back glitching up a tad:

Note that she has her sword drawn and on her back at the same time.

This is on the US Official Testlive PvE server.

Is raiding enabled on testlive? Just curious

Don’t understand why they changed magma wall so drastically, it was already fun spell to lock in people into pyramids and burn them alive. If they want something so different, just add new spell and call it spikes circle. Why change magma wall so much and not just leave it as it is and add a totally new spell?

Thralls tend to block the way. When you play with a clan, double doors are a blessing too. A way around it is using the wooden strut instead of doorways, at least inside, as it has a little more room, but it’s not an aesthetic choice for exits.

Denversetti · 2022-11-15T10:36:38.246Z

Thats my point, seems double door frame 2x2, but ACTUAL door space are the same as any door.
Double door gates are meant for 2x3 frame, which i find odd too, why they need 3rd lvl, 2x2 work perfectly.
