I’ve been lurking on the forums for a little over a year now, but made an account just to talk about this because of how hard it affects my and probably many others enjoyment of the game. Since the rework of the mission board Fatshark has stated that the High Intensity modifier is now baked into the…

[image] CH3DD4R_G0B-L1N: I purposefully ran a second, Hi Intensity Dark Communion Auric before coming here. It was also nowhere near old baseline Auric Damnation, let alone baked in Hi Int or double Hi Int (if that’s what Hi Int on a mission now means, still unclear on that). I would like to …

I realize this issue could potentially be solved in this hotfix. Just wanted to drop this reddit comment thread to further show I’m not the only one that’s been feeling Auric is off: Reddit - The heart of the internet I look forward to testing if the hotfix ma…

@FatsharkJulia @FatsharkKitefin I’ve now played one of each Auric modifier and a campaign back fill QP after this hotfix and I can say it feels like it’s back where it needs to be, imo. If others feel differently and they can confidently say they didn’t QP into a story mission, then please speak up…

Thanks for the update - I’ve shared your comments with the team and it’s under discussion.

I think there is positively no way they’re going to do away with backfill for campaign missions. If you quickplay, you get what you get. And they’ve got to fill those missions for (likely new) players or they’re going to have a crappy experience. I haven’t checked, but if you look in the tab menu i…

It shows the special event Inquisition “I” and each chapter has it’s own title. So, only those of us that know it’s not a gameplay modifier will really know it’s not a condition, I suppose. Tabbing is also the only way to know, to my knowledge (aside from being able to tell it for sure isn’t normal…

[image] CH3DD4R_G0B-L1N: I think my recommendation, which isn’t likely the best or one everyone would agree on, is just that campaign is only up to Damnation. I think that’s a good solution!

And again with unawareness in a thread about the decline in mission backfill in general:
