Info The Elemental Revamp: Part 1 - Endgame Overhaul - Updated Changelog Beta 1.1.1

In a sense it is comforting to know that, at the very least, newer/revisiting players will have a new interesting endgame to enjoy.

 

the existing ones will just have their focuses reinforced

 

I'm feeling a lot better about this update knowing that most of the items will be run through people like Druser and Larz to make sure they are decent.

 

I connected and saw that I'm poor and I lost myself on Youtube. Mission failed. x)

 

Dagnabit.

 

P.s. I wasn't the first one to say it.

 

I just still don't have faith that this will be done right.

 

So BPA becomes a helmet, Hephaestus-Forged will become boots, but can we assume Gaea-Hewn will probably stay boots since it's the only thing close to what it does (aside from Mantlewalkers for fire/earth)? And to a lesser extent Anima, which probably won't become a chestplate or leggings, but could become boots (see Medeis and Cinderchain).

 

If you dont have faith in the item team, nor have faith in the classbuilders (chosen by the community) who are going to work with them. Then how about you give them some input after the changelogs are released?

 

What happens to hive gear if its in the wrong armor slot when the update rolls out?

Also, would appreciate it if there were less complete reworks (steamjet, brainwash, bmask) as has been stated by the community already, since 1) IMO those items have their purposes as-is; and 2) reworking vs. adding new items destroys a lot of value / player time and effort

 

I mean, you have all the right concerns, but there is something to do about it. Like Victor said, IM has promised to check changes with the community. If you have any doubts, you need to voice them when the time comes.

 

Multiple people have stated their opinions on this thread, and after a few days of pondering about the update, I have some things to ask and say.

Some users have spent tons of money on "godly" items, and if these changes are made, how will the "new id's" get implemented? Will it be dependant on randomness? Will it depend on the % of the other stats which were there before it? With the example of steam jet walkers, how will the new stats be made?

Also, I just wanted to tell the IM's that this update is a thing that will (I will say this once again, after a ton of people have said it) completely destroy the economy, selling price, and sales of an item. It will also heavily affect builds that players may have grinded out, or have spent stacks of liquid emeralds on. It may quite literally render all current builds unviable. It seems that the dreadful consequences of this update/patch are worse than the alternative, leaving it be. Also, build makers who spend hundreds of hours (maybe not hundreds but definitely a lot of hours) making builds will have to see all the builds they have created go down the drain because of these changes. Even if a changelog were to come out (and it probably will. Hopefully anyway), it may take build makers hours and hours to experiment, and all their experience (maybe I'm exaggerating, maybe I'm not) will be gone because of the changes to items. Items that they knew the ins and outs of before may be changed to an item with a completely different concept (Ex. Steamjet).

I find it good that IM's have decided to share changes with the community so we can "brace for impact" so to say, but I feel as if a longer warning period of some sort might've helped us. The fact is, some changes are more for worse than for the better. I hope IM's understand that and understand the risk and consequences that this update may have on the player count, economy, market, and much more.

If the community does not want an update like this, why force an update on them? It seems that most of the community wish for the update not to happen, so why do it? Also, IM's are picked to create items for Wynn, which players use. This means that IM's should probably be listening to community feedback. I'm not sure if that has been happening.

That is all I have to say. Thank you for reading.

 

They are listening thats why they are going to work with people from the community. Also they postponed the update

 

I make builds and I am excited for the new update as it adds many items to mess around with and many new concepts. I personally don't mind if most of my previous builds are broken. (Except pls keep Taurus as is) For the economy what people don't understand is that you can still resell gear and store most of your money in le. The economy will be hectic when the update first drops but eventually it will stabilize.

 

Hehe, hehehehehehehe. And I do not care that my Knight, Dark Wizard, Hunter, and Ninja will be destroyed. But please oh please keep Centipede, Thanos Legionnaire Chestplate, Time Ring, and Gigabyte exactly the same.

 

Postponed?

 

At first they said the update would be live in a few weeks, after some community feedback/outrage they said they would revisit the items and postpone it for i believe month(s)

 

Changelog coming at the end ov this week or sometime next week. There will be a large amount ov time dedicated to community feedback, so actual update is at least two months away.

 

Hi do you have any constructive feedback on why you think that? (Other than “ i have no faith in the item team”)
Like Victor said, if you don’t have faith in us nor the class builders, legit just nominate someone you do trust.

 

hey we forgot to nominate @YYGAYMER
