[Sept 18] PvP
|
PvP is currently enabled in cut-throat mode (which is only run as events to test it). Many of our PvP plans have been detailed in a development diary entry. The first mode that will be enabled (in the short term) is a team based arena mode. Other modes will be added in the medium term. We expect PvP to be quite unbalanced at first, as it has not been extensively tested yet. Our long term goal is to have a very competitive and fair playing field for PvP. We’ll need your feedback to achieve that. 0.9.3 includes some PvP opportunities in the Act Two bandit quests.
Edit (Sept 18): Arena PvP is coming soon (0.9.13)! Last edited by Chris on Sep 18, 2012, 12:25:43 AM

Is "Short Term" before or after Open Beta?
| |

Is it as simple as:
Multiply monster damage by X. Multiply player health and energy shield by X. Multiply health flask healing by X. Re-balance Blood Magic for the larger values of health (I already think its kinda OP due to health flasks healing more/faster). Or are you going into more complicated changes to address this disparity? I definitely want fights to take more than 4-5 seconds! NewDude: I killed Brutus. Now I have no quest. So what now?
Guy: I guess there are people that NEED quests for direction. Guy2: I always wonder how those people get through life. GuyMontag: They get married. Wives are like quest-givers. | |

Against a player with 75% (max) damage reduction, and 1500 health (huge hp), it would take me 2 seconds to kill them. I've already done the bandit quests, so can't exactly go back and challenge people to duels to see how end-game PvP ends up, but I'm pretty sure on the current live version, it would be mutual exploding in under 2 seconds.

they guys who do more than 2 k dmg with heavy strike hit me just for 150 dmg...
| |
" i really hope to be before open beta :D | |
|
ah it must be a nitemare to build everything then have to look at pvp and rescale :/
It will take sometime of course but will be worked out, Just keep in mind there will always be something OP in someway that people will abuse. | |
" As far as I know PvP damage is downscaled.
