>What is Skyforge?
Skyforge is a FREE TO WIN, free to play MMO action RPG where you take the role of being a god. Like a god, you will have believers and followers and it is up to you to go and smite the many evil of the world (PVE). At the same time, there are other rival gods that will compete with you (PVP) and other gods that want to ally with you to defeat other gods (pantheon/guild/clan). On the other hand, you must give directions to your followers and believers to grow your religion ever more powerful. It is up to you on how to make your religion great and become one of the best gods of the world.

holy cow, I just used up all my caps opening the backpacks that I saved up last week and still got like half of the backpacks I saved up. I get 100 to 250 yellow sparks instead of 20 to 50 before the patch.

what was the damage bonus on the kinetic passive for fisting?
>>
>>124083513
30%. This kills the class.
>>
>>124083967
Kills Sledge form certainly. I still need to try Stone Spear, but I'm not holding my breath. Why did they have to increase chain gravitation's cost? That's just salt in the wound.
>>
>>124084270
Don't bother. Stone Spear is and always has been mechanically awkward and its performance was never even half decent. The patch did nothing to fix either of those issues.

Gunner is the new kinetic, embrace it.
>>
>>124084530
Hey, if Stone Spear was the top deeps in the game you wouldn't care how awkward it was, you'd make it work. But the patch didn't clarify that the DoT (i.e. half of its damage) was gone and I'm not even sure if the damage bonus from the weapon scales with explosive bond procs, so yeah it's shit.

I just unlocked the preview for all the classes and I'm liking knight, alchemist and lightbringer, is leveling up those 3 viable? Yesterday there was a guy that was saying that leveling some tank class and then a dps one is different than leveling dps and then tank because of temple or something like that so now I'm really confused about the class system and viability.
Is knight a viable tank class?
>>
>>124089203
Too bad the damage is calculated as soon as the animation starts preventing any shield timing as you inexplicably stop moving and then have a death animation 5 seconds later.
>>
>>124089203
>homing, undodgeable damage
>damage is applied before the animation
How is not auto attack?
>>
>>124089513
Those three are all core classes for end level play and probably always will be.

Only problem is you won't have any good soloing class and solo farming is a big part of the grind early on.
>>
>>124089513
There is an optimal sequence to progress, and usually involves being able to kill faster. Ultimately doesnt matter because weekly limits
>>
>>124089680
>>124089763
Can't you do everything in groups though? Or is that even slower?
>>
>>124090062
Pub groups are generally slower and can take a while to find a match. They can be extremely fast if you go Alch and the dps know what they're doing, but generally that's not the case.

Soloing isn't necessary, but if you have a good build it can be so much faster than pubbing. Although RIP Kinetic and his 3:30 completions of most maps.
>>
>>124090062
They can solo, but theyre just "suboptimal"
Groups take even longer because queueing
Like i said doesnt even matter because weekly limits
>>
Anybody got a link to that paladin pvp spec?
>>
>>124089513
you can get knight and alchemist instantly by buying the collectors edition online

might be worth it for you if you dig those two classes, you can save a ton of sparks by going for symbols instead of those two

All shields stack just by value. I dont think there is a priority.
I think its like this
Paladin shield protects lets say small numbers, 20 hp, and then the lightbinder one gives 30. You now have a shield value of 50. if you get hit for 40 hp. you still have both buffs on yourself, but your value is just 10

>>124098603
>>
>>124154040
>>124155874
Build is pretty much just >>124098603, although the plasma range is very optional and a few other talents aren't set in stone. Valor + Strength build, there are a few different choices of weapons.

All you do is go into missile mode, use the extra missiles 2 and hold leftclick with a few mine rings interspersed.

Is it Sledge? Not quite. A high prestige (and thus high symbol-count) Kinetic could kill bosses in a single sledge burst. A high prestige gunner can kill bosses in a single missile sequence. But there are a few key differences, two of the biggest are:
-Kinetic burst takes about 5 seconds, whereas Gunner takes about 15, so not only is/was kinetic faster, but it has/had better synergy with short-duration buffs.
-Kinetic burst was available every 30 seconds on the dot, Gunners take substantially longer to re-arm their missile count (unless they get an execute or two in).

Swift should be Discharge/Dash, obviously. Minor mistake.

Shitters don't understand the concept of total group damage and instead just want to see big numbers on their personal score card.

Damage you inflict to a VC is not added to your own Mark of Death, since it technically didn't damage the boss. However, when a VC pops, its damage is added to the witch's Mark of Death. Since VC deals more damage than it takes to break, the only reason not to VC is if your witch doesn't have as many Mark of Death nodes as the rest of your DPS.
>>
So apparently they nerfed the class spark you get too, now when i kill the bosses in isola digs i get 2 sparks per kill as opposed to 7-10 i used to get befor the patch. I don't know if i want to continue playing this game anymore.
>>
>>124164272
Actually, they made it so that if you're way over the prestige level of whatever you're killing, you get reduced rewards, to a minimum of one. Since golden age adds 100% gain, you get 2. Now that golden age has ended, you'll only get one. Go out and play normally. It's actually good that they do this, it solves high prestige players messing with lowbies.

Mine Ring increases accuracy which benefits from high Strength. It's not huge especially considering it's not that difficult to cap on Accuracy, but without any sort of bonus to crit Strength is probably better consistent damage than Luck anyway.

>>
>>124208037
Because Cryo was very strong and then they buffed it.

Cryo has tons of sources of damage, but your two primary ones will be Whiteout and the buffed right-click damage from the Cryocharge talent (if you're lucky enough to crit Cryobeam).

The combo is pretty easy:
-Charge a right-click and wait for buffs.
-Once buffed, release right-click, cast Whiteout, then Cryobeam
-If you got Cryocharge, right-click twice
-Then channel Jagged Ice

Even though Whiteout's damage is done over 14 seconds, it snapshots the buffs, so it ends up doing crazy-high damage even to single targets. The Cryocharged right-clicks do absurd damage if they crit. Like two bars of a solo boss each.

Combo's cooldown is 45 seconds which goes well with Alch stims. You can pretty much do whatever while combo is down as long as you save enough Cryogen to combo again (takes pretty much your full bar).

You should almost always be doing bonus objectives. They increase your regular rewards by 30% and with very few exceptions (such as bad cache maps or Finishing Blows on extremely small maps), they do not add anywhere near 30% more time. If you're frequently getting S rank then Particles of Mastery will be the fist thing you cap.

I see, so there's no need to hit the caps every week? They are just there to prevent grinding or something?

any way to check tooltips for buffs and debuffs?
>>
>>124221370
Pretty much. They're there to prevent people from getting through the content in a couple of weeks then fucking off. They're also there to make sure there is always a division between whales and grinders. You can go at your own pace. Getting to god form as quick as you can is a good idea, though, since you unlock some new caps then.

Symbols shouldn't be that complicated. Most symbols are damage-oriented so a tank has a lot of room to work with.

Highest priority should be Spirit Symbols: Double Discharge, Impulse Barrier especially. Valor symbols eventually.

Witch symbol will be great. It adds a steady source of damage for all classes.

Most of the defensive symbols like Defensive Reflex and Balance are pretty weak/conditional. Inertia can be good for certain telegraphs, but it's often overkill with Clever Maneuver.

well it's partly about priority, what's worth going for quickly on the atlas

>>124217354
couple weeks with all the catch up bonuses and whatnot. If you grind super efficiently (aka, don't pick up any loot other than boss loot and grind holy texts for your currency cap), it's quite possible to hit 30.5k in 3 weeks
>>
>>124239382
Well definitely get the Impulse Barrier south of the middle. Double discharge is a little out of the way, don't worry about it until you max a few classes.

Of course, the main stats are just recommendations. You almost always WANT those stats because of ability synergies, but if you build differently, it still works as expected.

>99.99% of all attacks are readable.
>90% are unavoidable homing auto attacks that CANNOT be dodged.

Nice misinformation.

PvE in this game would actually be pretty solid if ALL attacks were able to be dodged. If it was possible to solo 5mans in this game, but it was "super hardâ„¢" like dark souls, it would actually be pretty interesting.

Dodging just feels fucking useless in this game, with all the homing unavoidable bullshit.

TERA honestly has a combat system closer to dark souls than this game. 99% of attacks ARE dodge-able in that game. You just have very limited dodges making it feel like shit.

OP a shit. Game a shit.

>>124254305
Not that I'm defending the poorly-worded OP, but that was probably written from the context of a non-tank playing in group content. In solo play it might be annoying to have unblockable auto-attacks (that are calculated before they're animated, completely negating counter-play) wrecking your shit such that you literally cannot beat a certain boss on the difficulty you're on at the prestige you're on, but that kind of thing disappears pretty quick when you get things like Pally symbol and better damage.

If you're a genuine new player who is being deterred by this, I will say that high-level gameplay is, indeed, revolved around coordination and dodging telegraphs (which while individually pretty easy can get very hectic in busy 10-mans). The primary problems this game has are not the complexity of the end-game gameplay, but the amount of grind and wait you have to endure to get there and have to continue enduring even once you're there.

what class is best to beat knights?
>>
>>124255850
>>124256526
When I play Knight, honestly, what wrecks my shit most is Lightbinder. Not on their own, but combo'd with a good dps. And obviously Archer can shred a Knight in a group, but 1v1, Knight will usually wreck archer's shit (and the same is true, to a lesser extent, of all DPS).

If you're 1v1, Monk can probably work with the nerf to Unshakeable. And an Alchemist with all his cooldowns is annoying as fuck.
>>
>>124254971

Yep.

End game is absolutely fantastic. Better-than-WoW-tier. Some of the most complex and coordinated shit I've seen in an MMO.

Most people are put off by the insurmountable grind-walls, and the pay-to-stay-viable shit, though.

I love the combat system, though, so I'll stick with it until it dies.
>>
>>124257189
what about cryos? can they do it?
>>
>>124259769
Maybe I lack enough experience, but in PvP Cryos only seem to be good (i.e. better than archer) for their Whiteout zoning (which is very good for cart control but not much else). Beyond that they do the same kind of things Archer does but slightly worse.

>>
>>124284051
yes, what else are you going to use them for when you clearly don't need them.
you have to choice, either break them into stone to upgrade your equipment ranks or turn them into threads to trade for cos. Stone take 1 space whereas threads don't. Also stones can be trade for credits when you no longer use them because the upgrade requires a better stone
>>
>>124284163
depends on what you're playing

smart positioning deals with most threats in 10v10 and ffa

>>124284414
also stones take away credits from your weekly max whereas threads don't

this is important if you want to max credit gain
>>
>>124274902
You're not going to notice a huge difference, but if you're ever in the area, might as well. Although tanks can do a surprising amount of damage and usually have no problem surviving so there's an argument to be had for not wanting the symbol.

No. It's a generic MMORPG with a few gimmicks that trick people into thinking it's inovative in some way.

Combat is as bland as any other tab target mmo.
Class balance is non-existent.
"end-game" is just massive damage sponges with added "dodge the fire" mechanics and retard checks.
"challenging" bosses offer the same challenge as wotlk bosses at best.
Unlocking any of the nice-looking features takes literally months.

I enjoy it, anon. It's the best MMO I've played in the last decade. If you can eat the grind and have some money to spend, it's worth it every day of the week.

Pantheon wars is certainly going to be amusing if you're in one of the core pantheons.

I love the combat, I love the endgame fights, and PvP is improving little by little.

I've been playing since early release and there has yet to be a single moment where I've thought "Damn, I should find another game to play. I'm getting bored."

Patch was great. Game is great. People are great. Arguably, it could just be because I'm a bit drug addled. But I'd like to think it's because it's a good game.

The devs are doing it right. They actually understand what's going on their game, and they're working on it. I like them. I like you too, anon.
