Hey guys I’ve been enjoying the game so far and have a few notes I wrote down while playing that I wanted to provide feedback on. For context I went Necro, played a ton of games like this and none of these are bugs just annoying things in the game. So let’s dive in.
1.) You can’t assign actions to mouse buttons. Would be nice if you could.
2.) Minions don’t come through with you when you teleport to an area… Very very frustrating plz fix.
3.) You can open a second Town Portal in town accidentally ruining where you left off at in the story missions. Needs to be disabled
4.) Side quests that unlock ways forward need to be part of the main quest. It’s confusing closer to the end of the 1st arc what to do before getting to End of Time
5.) Skeleton Mages have a talent that sacrifices Wraths but it happens right when you summon the Wrath taking the value you would get from them as a body and damage totally wasted and is hamstringing the shit out of my build and I have a empty specialization slot with points that I can’t even use. If they sac’d them at 50% health or something it would be so much better(since they decay health).
6.) Minions movements and aggro need a change. They are clunky and you have to face aggro then they start attacking. Sometimes a few minions will attack something and the rest won’t do anything. They have trouble attacking in spots like stairs and I’ve noticed they just stand there sometimes doing nothing in those spots. Occasionally one or two minions will be attacking something WAY off screen instead of sticking with me and even when I get back they don’t want to follow. And they get obliterated when bosses do AoE damage that targets the player.
7.) For the past 35 levels I’ve found nothing but uniques for other classes and builds and it feels horrible I’ve found enough items for other builds to make a new character or two with them and not one unique for me in weeks. Very
upsetting
8.) There are a few spots in the game where map elements get in the way of your vision. I saved a few screenshots of these places and can upload them. The locations were Frozen Lake, Lagoon and Ruined Temple
9.) Lastly constantly having to rediscover the local map and no way to see the entire local map other than the overlay. Annoying. Local map needs work.
10.) Respecing is confusing to me and needs something more clear in the description
Well that wraps it up. The game is very polished for still being in Beta and I’ve been enjoying my playthrough so far and found a few things I’d hope were changed before launch.
This almost sounds like a bug. Minions teleport with me just fine. Is it a specific minion that is doing this?
Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.
Definitely a hot topic and one the devs are aware of. Primalist’s wolves are already working with a different A.I. and it has been pretty well received. We expect some significant changes to general minion A.I. in the future.
For the most part, uniques that drop in the world are completely random, so it sounds like you’ve just had bad luck. There are well over 100 uniques in the game, so there are a lot of possibilities. There are also ways to target farm uniques. Some exist solely in endgame and drop exclusively from certain bosses. The gambler can also help target most of the world drop uniques, although he is quite expensive and it’s possible to have pretty bad luck there as well. The good news is, there are very very few builds that need uniques in order to function properly, and there are also only a small number of uniques that are best in slot for the builds they work with. Crafting on blues/rares/exalteds is where most of the best stuff comes from.
Yeah, definitely. I know there has been some work on fixing these areas, but the devs have also been adding a lot of new maps and reworking old ones, so I imagine it’ll be an ongoing process for a while getting all of those obstructions out.
Could you go into some detail as to what is confusing to you about the respeccing system? More specifics would help.
Yea but I didn’t realize this when I made this post had to test first but it’s only when I’m going out into the world through a TP from a base and all of my minions spawn at the entrance of the level and then they run to me making even going through at all on big areas a nightmare where I had to summon many minions while fighting stuff since theres no reset window for the monster respawning. It happens every time to every minion I have.
Cool the biggest thing I could add is they shouldn’t aggro stuff off screen(which happens constantly) and they need some kind of leash radius and if you get flanked like in the Endless Arena you have a horrible time do any damage and controlling the monsters now. Glad there looking into it.
Okay that makes more sense thanks
I looked it over again and understand it better now. Just haven’t played the game enough yet to understand everything.
There are many bug reports where minions don’t appear with the player when they return to a map via a portal (as the minions are respawned at the “start” of the zone).
If you select “move & attack” on LMB you can then select one of your 5 skills to bind to your LMB, though it won’t get you an additional active skill to use.
Not sure where are any side quests that are necessary to carry on the main quest, do you have any in mind?
This is a technical issue that is due to how they have the zones saved during the current single player, it won’t be an issue when they implement multiplayer.
I know I meant other mouse buttons than Left and Right click.
Yea the side quest before you get to the End of Time where you have to go into another timeline and it’s marked as silver and I thought it was optional but you had to do it otherwise there was a wall blocking your way and I had no idea what to do at first. Not sure if there’s others.
