IDK why, but CyTube keeps getting filtered as spamClearly a sign that the hangout is gay and deserves to dieAnyway, hope everyone beat the Harbingers by now
>>4105986Still need to kill Absolution 16 more times.
>>4105989I had the best luck clearing Absolution with pre-stacked AIBeat it once with VHL too, but it only worked with pots & ravHowever, heard Lich or KE for consistent farming (don't have)Curious what setups everyone used to beat the harbingers?
>>4106001I used pre-stacked AI. Just gets a bit annoying having to pre-stack everytime RNG decides to screw with me...
Every single time I go to xyfrag I see some 3-4 vhl/ke players immediately start and the team wipes because they fucking took dps classes that offer absolutely nothing instead of supports and then they ask why they're not beating it. Ke biggest damage nuke gets hard capped here. VHL biggest damage nuke gets hard capped here.Fucking retards literally see their damage being capped and still use ke and vhl every single day.Hell supports do more damage here so why the fuck would anyone take ke/vhl here.
>>4106715>expecting the SEAfag audience of AQW to understand how to change classes
>>4105894Some fond childhood memories of these games.
>Darkon leaks stuff ahead of time to his biggest paypigsLmao
>>4106715uhh bro I have VHL, I don't need to use the rest of my brain anymore

cute birthday event
>>4125805I’m liking a lot of the new sets. Not a fan of the new ui, but it seems classes no longer take up inventory slots so that’s nice.
>>4125919On the bright side, Gravelyn can now slide into your DMs.
Whole new inventory system and armor and classes still share a space. Now I have to scroll through dozens of useless classes to look at my armor or the 4-8 classes worth using.
>>4105894Quick rundown on the fish?
>>4127164She loves Halloween
>>4125805Holy cute. Gravelyn still mogging all the other girls.
>>4127141You can favorite the ones you use.
>>4127164Local eldritch horror from before this plane of existence, former resident shitposter and current schizophrenic delusion thought it'd be funny to make you care about a fish.>>4127141You also gained 100 inventory spaces for free just by them moving Misc to a separate pool. That was basically the biggest complaint and they finally fixed it, but having to sort your inventory once is the end of the world. You people will complain about anything, I swear.
>>4127328When are they confirming her love for (You)?
>>4127328>Good has a single notable representative that they also barely bothered to build upIt's amazing how much they messed up the faction gimmick. Even as someone who absolutely loves DF Victoria and Good, I have to admit that they keep intentionally shooting her in the foot and destroying all her potential.At least Tara is turning out to be lovable and I can always take solace in the fact that Gravelyn's outfit is cursed to only ever get progressively worse while Victoria looks better every time.
Holy shit they remembered Z
>Dragonfable, Adventure Quest, Mechquest, etc now available on other devicesAre we finally back? Without the coping, I mean.
>>4131920Yes. We're back for real.
For the first time ever, AQW is buttery smooth
>>4131691I laugh every time I see her blind. She looks so goofy.
>two random pumpkin girls in the vampire vs lycan map>hidden pumpkin shop and item drops that aren't listed in-game>an item with really low drop rate that stacks to only 6 called Upsizer that doesn't seem to have a purpose at all>Head Maid in the background of every map tile with these secretsTHE PUMPKINS ARTIX WHAT DO THEY MEAN>>4131925Maybe now I will actually have the drive to grind Dragonfable again and catch up to the story.>>4131934>AQW is buttery smoothIt's still a bit slow and drops to like 12fps during cutscenes, but definitely better. Especially the UI speed.
>>4131920>Mechquest... Why?
>>4131691Good Factions are less developed compared to their evil counterpart and any development they do get is just showing more flaws. Even the noble houses are kinda one dimensional, sucking up to Victoria and having wholesale irl lore attached to them to make them seem very complex.>>4131961Victoria became blind to show she is willing to sacrifice herself for the cause. Until you remember the setting is in a magical world and she could easily fix her eyesight. Gravelyn and Drakath got over their injuries after their fight with OWO, yet Victoria can’t heal her eyes. This is just as retarded as Aria being stuck in a wheelchair. Also Victoria once said that she was becoming like Iona.
>>4132270Hag LOVE
>>4132204They might as well. All they did was try to wholesale port their PC launcher to an App format so you're not actually running anything on your phone, tablet, etc like how Infinity does it.Although since it's a straight port it does admittedly suck and it's difficult to tap buttons accurately. Also it deleted all my saved outfits and builds in Dragonfable lol, or they just don't show up in the app I suppose.>>4132220>Good Factions are less developed compared to their evil counterpartI wouldn't say Evil is developed as a faction. The main characters like Dage, Gravelyn, Nulgath, etc are, but their faction is still just as empty as when it started as generic evil guys. Honestly it's even more retarded than ever since Evil members are genuinely horrible people that would rightfully be wiped out by the Hero under any other circumstances.>Until you remember the setting is in a magical world and she could easily fix her eyesight.This is a pretty bad argument, anon. If it is a magical world where you can do anything, then it logically follows that it's also a magical world where you can inflict injuries that can't be healed. That argument works for things like D&D because it has the underlying systems laid out in guidebooks and everything in it uses that same system, the players do know what can be healed because they can simply refer back to a rule book.>Why can't Vayle just revive her loved one perfectly with magic?>Why didn't the hero just heal the Astravians and Darkon with magic?>Why didn't he just put out the fire on the eternally burning forge victims with magic?>Why doesn't the hero just turn into a dragon and eat all the bad guys that aren't universal level threats with time magic?>Why didn't the DF protagonist just save Serenity with magic?And so on. Your argument can apply to every single problem in universe as well, and the answer is always going to be because "the writers say you can't" or "the characters here don't know you can yet."
>>4132346
>>4132364The problem I have with Victoria being blind is that it barely affects her or the story. Hell she even gets her vision restored when got possessed by a Doom Spirit. Her being blind is less about her “ sacrifice” and more in line of fetishizing disability like the wheelchair users in DnD.And for those problems? We already saw what would happen if the hero fixed those problems and it was called Ultraspeaker.
>>4132220>Even the noble houses are kinda one dimensional, sucking up to Victoria and having wholesale irl lore attached to them to make them seem very complex.It's referential loreslop with superficial complexity. There are like 10 of them and every single one is "old person bad young person good". They can't have any impact on the story because you are god, and the only one that people recognized was killed off because he was created by someone other than the current writer.
>>4132565>Her being blind is less about her “ sacrifice”It's not about sacrifice at all, it's specifically the opposite of that. The Iona arc is her learning that she doesn't need to make all the sacrifices and bear the burdens alone, that she can lean on her family like Tara and Gravelyn. All this wishy washy noble houses and dumb Evil lieutenant stuff is all just world building and laying foundations.>Ultraspeaker.That's a theoretical version of Malgor where he became a Hero instead, not a version of (you) that saved everyone.>>4132580>"old person bad young person good".It's more like a reworking of the Maleurous saga plot from DF is in every arc from the current writer or writers. Both the old and the new are unwilling to change or compromise so it inevitably leads to conflict. Hence Victoria being a stupid retard for a bit and Gravelyn doing nothing most of the time unless she's forced into action to protect her family or legacy. It "feels" like they're heading towards actually changing the factions meaningfully by the end of the current main arc and we'll get Gravelyn joining the Good scenes a lot more to be cute in, but I don't know if I trust the writers to pull that off.
>>4132565Ultraspeaker is the good timeline, just like chaosavenger. We play the worst timeline ngl.
>>4132565This take is too retarded to be bait.
Why the fuck did they get rid of banking classes? I don't want to see my fucking 4 basic classes. Fucking why?>just favorite the ones you useOr just fucking let me bank those useless classes. There's literally no reason for me to have them in my inventory.
>Tfw some people got enough fomo to use an IoDA on THISNot even a good class. I used it to nuke people in PvP years back and that's about it.

>>4133017Fishing CHADS
>>4133017But I don't want to farm armors or rep today, Artix.
>>4133038When does this take effect? I should get this stuff ASAP.
>>4133049You've got 5 days. :)
>>4133049Read the design notes, dummy. Personally I've only got Rank 10 fishing done.
Alright now post your favorite fish
>>4105979>>4133017Triple resources boost on the 23th as wellIs anyone interested in farming stuff together?>>4132220>...Drakath got over their injuries after their fightWTF u smoking bro? Last I checked he's still a hobo>>4133015The VoT & Pyro PvP meta made me quit AQW lelIt's decent now after the rework to skills and tokensDefinitely not worth an IoDA even with the free set
We’re so back.
>>4133038Tbh you should've farmed the ones with the cost increase at least. Literally the fastest to farm. Shartix looked at how quickly u can farm those and said fuck that shit you fags need to grind harder.
>>4133017Looking like a powercrept vdk at this point.
I'm finally ready...What do you guys think ??? is
>>4137496It’s blank because it hasnt been released yet. It’s a shitty armor from a gay boss fight with .5% drop rate.
>>4137519...yeah that sounds about right...
The somnia farm was faster than expected. Under 30 minutes with FB.
>>4131814>another wifepetThey really know what everyone wants.
>>4137577Somnia is a very comfy farm, if you have the right quests you never need to move from one area.
>>4137258>you should've farmed the ones with the cost increase at least.Yeah, I did. It sucked since the Sun Zone Chits took me nearly a hundred quest completions because they kept dropping only 1 and I got literally nothing else out of it since I'm max level. I dread to think what people will experience with 200 needed, or god forbid the level 80's who can't kill things fast. I hate this sort of grind. Like what the fuck is this? One roll with a 25% chance for a single resource to decide whether the quest was worth doing at all, and you need to win that roll 40 times. Statistically that's like what, 150-200 generic quests for one armour set?Out of curiosity, I wonder if you can just IODA the Adeptus Kathooli set?>>4135684>23thhehe
>>4138190>low drop from a quest completionYeah, that shit is cancer. It's like every quest is a gacha roll but you only get SO many chances before you have to farm again. The drops required for completion aren't 100% either!
This class will probably suck dick so who cares, you should just do spergragmos for the lore.
>>4138345To be fair, I don't know what the solution is for better grinds and it's still infinitely better than anything Dage, Nulgath or Lae has made.Also I learnt this cursed information just now.People have used IoDA on permanently available monster drop items.
>>4138376>This class will probably suck dickThat's every class that isn't the big 2.>>4138400Why would you give your fellow man this cursed knowledge?
>>4138400This drops from ledgermayne, he dies in 2 hits, and you can buyback the staff if you use it for anything. Absolutely wasted.
It begins
>>4137578>finally got a kathool waifu petWe are so back.
The kathool class seems like a lesser AI and LR, seems like a good choice for players who don’t have those classes yet, as an easy substitute. According to some players I spoke to KA is very good for rapid dage kills, and performed well in 7 man fights. The class loses out on top damage compared to AI but is much easier to use and less prone to spontaneously dying.
Reminder: Fish daughter's hair and visages are also now available in the ElodeaTemple map. Her armour is coming next week for your fish daddy and fish daughter cosplays or photo ops.>>4138626>The class loses out on top damage compared to AII thought the whole point was that it's a debuff/buff class, not a dps or farming one?
>Vampire cutie morph is rare AND member so you cant even buy itkys AE
>>4138190Honestly not that bad for me because of full por css crushing bosses and mobs. Took less than a day to grind. Not the worst desu.
>>4138376If you look at the skills, it may or may not replace vdk in certain boss fights.
>Got the class in 30 secondsWow, that was surprisingly easy.
