Beta Weekend 14 – 17 August
Things I enjoyed most:
- Revenant: so much fun to play!!!
- Flying: feels so d*mn good <3
- Itzel: unique design & very cool fight animations
- New mobs: exciting mechanics and animations
- New challinging content: Missions and Mastery System
Things I enjoyed least/Bugs:
- Glider: activates randomly while jumping between plattforms, killing your jumping progress by throwing you over the next plattform or canceling your channelled attack, feels like it takes away control from the player
- Bouncing Mushrooms: all shrooms I found did not bring me to places I could not reach with other means, even the abandoned part of Itzel village with the numerous veteran spiders, so using them felt disappointing as it was more a shortcut than a mean to reach new places
- Revenant: staff ability 2 was never useful to me, feels really awkward to use, it does not deal more damage than attacking with 1 since 2 is slower and it consumes a good portion of your energy, the weakness condition seems negligible, there seems no reason to disrupt your 1 attack chain for 2; maybe it just seems that way in contrast because all other staff abilities are so amazing and very useful (no irony btw, love the staff)
- Revenant: hammer ability 3 causing the pop-up “press space to use glider” to appear when using 3 to attack over a large gap
- Revenant: Ventary legend ability 7 will stay infinitely without consuming energy by having it active while going into downstate and then getting back up; using another ability of the legend aside from 6 will revert the bugged effect
- Shadow Dog mobs: often avoids attacks eventhough they are not in their shadow cloud area anymore, frustrating
- Mordrem Archer guy: one-shots people no matter how tanky they are, arrows cannot be stopped by projectile hindering abilities, and it is not even a veteran, so the damage seems a bit out off place and makes people curse
Looking forward to BWE2 and full release!
