Yeah, I think there isn't much of a cap on the skeleton spell but I actually didn't use it too much in most of my builds. In later levels, most enemy can just one shot kill a skeleton champion so it's not that great. I'm actually surprised the War Drake had a hard time since it has some pretty potent attacks and should have been able to chew through a lot of skeletons. Did you surround it completely? If so, do you recall if it attacked the skeletons or did it just do nothing and get killed? I seem to recall a bug in DR1's Hydra where surrounding it would cause it to not attack at all. If that applies here, I'll take a look and fix it. Shamaness attack damage is low but she gets to attack twice so is more useful for picking off multiple, weakened enemies. Also, she has several area effect damage spells that scale up a lot as she levels up. The Drake is less versatile since it's just a level 1 and is limited to one use. And a question: Does tohit chance cap at 100, or does the sheet just not show higher values? And I am not sure yet if actual tohit chance in a battle caps out at 85%, or if it can go higher.[/QUOTE]
I was glad to see it up. Some games get reviews that never seem to hit the main news feed, so I'm thrilled that this one did. I hope this turns into even more downloads for you Wave Light!
Congrats on the game, Looks super solid! Always nice to see an indie dev knock it out of the park. Cheers!
Thanks for the quick responses. I asked about the dodge and hit skills capping at 100 because the sheets often show them capping. This happens for most of my characters and your answer may mean I change some of my gear. There was some 30+% dodge gear I didn't buy because I didn't think I needed it... I finished mission 30 and it was a good battle even on normal. Going to try it on extreme when I have the time as that will be a slog.
Absolutely loved the 1st and I'm super enjoying the 2nd. Major bugs on the warlock's 2nd skill though. It freezes all characters sometimes. And the auto load function seems to drain AP. Sometimes characters also hit each other on an auto load. Rare instance: character walks into an occupied square of a live friendly/foe. This makes the foe untargetable and if a friendly is affected, they are treated as a dead character during the mission. Glad I got this on sale. Lots of content down the road for sure.
Gonna have to respectfully disagree on that. My corsair wrecks from end to end. He takes out whole armies. With help from certain buffs hehehe. 100% crit w/ 9 attacks @ 10 range. Mine currently crits at 96 high 85 low. I'm not counting additional negative effects on enemies (reduce dmg soak).
I'll second the love for my warbear as he's the one who takes down the mobs with 2-3k hp but I actually like the shadow ghoul a ton. Here's what my warbear looks like by turn 2 though:
Yes, surrounded it completely, and it kept attacking. But the big bad demon occupying one hex apparently was a juicier target than the wimpy Skellies Think I needed 4 or 5 turns of that, on top of all the damage it took in earlier turns. I used the Demon and my Warbear to soak up the counterattacks, and then had the Skellies and Rangeds plink away at it. He killed a Skeleton or two, but those were easily replaced. On other Stages I don't even attack with the Skeletons most of the time, to not suffer damage from counter attacks so they last longer. I use them mostly as blockers and fire magnets, not for attack. And the Huntress' Drake summon is just too weak: dies to one hit, and does almost no damage. Not even a good blocker. I just use it as filler when I don't have anything else to do with her AP. If it scaled with her level, it would be more useful; maybe Drake-level=1+(Huntress-level/2)? Not sure if it should get a buff though, as I think her Healing is her most valuable skill.
Price just increased ? Is this serious ? # The app store description said "The first 10 days", I thought this included today, I was actually getting my iTunes card this morning I really couldnt do it before because my whole family had a cold and I was taking care of them # Oh well, I guess ill just go full support and buy this full price.... lol P.S. The app store did say : Updated : Nov 10th, and that was version 1.0, im confused tbh, this should be the 10th day today
It was released on the 9th according to TA. THAT MAKES 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 the 10 days. I only typed it out because sometimes people forget you have to count that first day, so you cant simply do 9+10. It is worth the price though, you won't be disappointed.
Im sure it will be worth the price, im just kind of short on money atm sales do help # And yeah i noticed what you told me too, it does say 9th on TA, I kind of hanged on the app store information (To think that the TA information was more accurate, wow apple.) Anyhow, Ill give this a spin later today when I buy it... just hate how the CAD already makes everything so expansive im trying to save where I can
Hey ... sorry about that. I feel your pain as a fellow Canadian. Appreciate the support. On the bright side, when the first patch hits, you'll get 2 new player characters and the patch after that will give you another 2 new characters and the one after that will add yet another one. So although the prices has gone up, you will get a steady stream of extra content for free.
Regarding the patch, I pulled the submission yesterday because I wasn't happy with how the Feral Ogre looks. I think I made him a little too low poly in the optimization steps and he came out looking ugly. I've fixed him now and will be re-submitting today. Sorry for the delay but I just couldn't have the ogre not look pretty on his debut.
Yes, the warlock's 2nd ability is fixed in the upcoming patch. I actually changed it to a spell that affects all units within 3 tiles since he didn't have any like that. The rare bug where a character walks into an occupied tile is a strange one. I think it happens if you kill an enemy and then walk into that tile and then a collectable item from that enemy appears on that tile. When the collectable appears, I think it "separates" the character from the tile and therefore prevents him from being used. I'll look into it more but for now, I'm pretty sure you can avoid it by waiting a few seconds to see if a collectable appears before moving your character onto the tile of an enemy he just killed.
That skill doesn't have a cooldown so as long as he has enough hit points to survive the hit point damage penalty, he can buff himself up with as many times as he wants. It's one of the few abilities that doesn't have a cooldown but I really like it because you have to make that decision of whether to risk more damage to inflict another attack on an enemy.
You finished campaign 30 on normal difficulty? Well done! I actually couldn't manage it on normal and had to tone the difficulty down. As a reward for being the first on this forum to report doing so, I shall name one of the new DR2 characters after your username. Know that your accomplished has been immortalized henceforth in Demon's Rise lore.
