Just moved up to heresy a few days ago after grinding out all characters to 30. Feels fresh again, reminds me of transitioning from champ to legend in V2. I’ve noticed that a lot of diamantine is dropping which is nice, the only problem is that this seems to be on the expense of less plasteel drops in the levels. I’m currently at 800 diamantide and about 500 plasteel. I’m not thrilled on the idea of going back down to malice just to farm plasteel. Is anyone else noticing this or do I just have bad rng?
The crafting mat rewards need to be increased dramatically overall. Especially with the crafting system they have in mind, which is intentionally designed to make you upgrade as many items as possible in the hope of lucking out, and then rerolling a bad property with rising costs - until you either get the one you want, or until you brick the item by making it too expensive to keep rolling it.
I have 3k Diamantine on Damnation. And no plasteel.
I’m feeling the needless grind right now.
Especially since rerolling isn’t even out yet, but that’s gonna be a FINE way to just dumpster items.
(if we could fully craft half their gear acquisition system would just… be pointless)
Having green dust ptsd rn😅
Kind of amazing:
New game
Same problems
If other “high level” crafts use more diamantine, then ok… else… lol.
I’ve been running low and I really need something to… concentrate right now. I just… need to consecrate y’know? I can’t stop… it’s like… it’s in my head ya know? Just… those optimal properties… the perfect stat distribution on the gray I just got… and MAN I NEED TO HIT THAT CONSECRATE BUTTON. I NEED IT NOW.
Kinda hard to believe they deliberately set out to implement a crafting system that is worse than VT2.
I want to reiterate this point, because you cannot stress this enough: They deliberately chose this system, knowing fully well that it is worse, more grindy and less player-friendly.
