I will leave the complaining thread for some other type. Not much going on in the forum anyway. So today, I am mostly looking for some clarification and help. First off some things I like:
- The new Weekly CW Expidition counting for the Weekly Okri’s Challenge is a fantastic change. Because it enables me to avoid playing the weeklies which are most time rather mundane and also a good reason to visit the Wastes regularly without having the feeling of being locked out of the Weekly Missions.
- Secondly, I welcome it that progress in Okri’s challenges is again saved after each sub-map during an expedition (I think this has been different at some point). This makes stuff like getting the Purified skins a lot more bearable instead of failing in the final arena and standing there with nothing.
- The new boons are mostly interesting a good. But some of the are ridiculous powerful. I don’t like it very much that instead of balancing the bomb spam and crit spam in the whole game - not just CW - you just quadruple down on that. 10+ bombs or bomb equivalents (Trollhammer Torpedo) per mission are far far far to much. All of these builds/weapons need a nerf but this is a topic for another time.
With this said, let me come to the actual topic. After updating my guide, I noticed some curiosities with the new boons. Namely the names/translation. Looking at this list here: Patch 5.5.0, live now! Quality of Life Update, Skulls 2024!
There are multiple boons listed there which have a different name in my game version. I will first give the name in the list and then the name I have in my game. These are:
- Lileath’s Disruptor => Vaul’s Disruptor
- Lileath’s Avenger => Eldrazor’s Avenger
- Lileath’s Prophetic Bolt => Hekarti’s Prophetic Bolt
- Harrying Boon of Hoeth’s Precision => Harrying Boon of Anath Raema’s Precision
- Harrying Boon of Hoeth’s Deflection=> Harrying Boon of Anath Raema’s Deflection
- Harrying Boon of Hoeth’s Perfection => Harrying Boon of Anath Raema’s Perfection
So, here I would request the help of players with the english version of the game (maybe also other languages). If these name differences are in that version as well. Right now, I am trying to find out if this is just a general mix-up of early names, later names. Or if it is specific to the german translation like they got the text early for translation and the name changes have not been transmitted. It is not a critical issue, however confusing for me and maybe other players too.
I would also ask english players for the original wording of the Event Boons. I know that the timing is bad because they aren’t available anymore. But while translating them, I noticed they are so complicated in wording that my manual translation is surely very bad. I also can shake the feeling that the german translation actually tells something completely different than what the boon really does.
Lastly - and this request goes to Fatshark directly/only - I would ask if I could get the original graphics for the new boons so I can implement them in the guide. I work with screenshots and have nearly all of them. But the quality is slightly worse.
