Hello everybody,
Larek here for my very first BLESS Blog!
From time to time, I will open a thread with some quick updates from our side and some of the things we have been working on.
It will also be a good place to get some of your feedback on some specific topics.
As you might know, we now have our own test server. We use it to get to know the game more.
While we are still ironing out detailed plans for QA, we try to get a "feel" of the game.
We try to see what we like and do not like, identify what could be some tweaks necessary for our future players.
I also use this time to create guides for the team and future Game Masters so everybody can have the information they need.
Low-Level dungeons and wipe party
While we can use our "Game Master" powers to explore the land faster and kill everything on our way, we also wanted to get a feel of the dungeons difficulty.
The BLESS team went through the first two lv13 dungeons as well as the Sleeping Scale ruins (Level 20).
How did it go?
Hum... how shall I put this...? It was... messy...
While we were all impressed with the beauty of the dungeon, we soon learned that we'll need to learn more about our classes...
We went with 5 level 20 characters (Paladin / Guardian / Assassin / Mage / Ranger) equipped with "common" gear for that level.
And we died... a lot...
While the final boss of the dungeon was challenging, it is actually this little fella that caused us the most trouble:
It really took us a while and a few wipes to get the mechanics and defeat him.
We also had a lot of aggro issues and mobs going everywhere.
The temptation to use our GM powers was very high but we did not give up.
Clearing the dungeon was very rewarding but also left us drained of energy.
We are now playing our classes a bit more so we can tackle the next dungeons more effectively.
Now it is time to ask!
Let me know everything you have in mind regarding the lower level dungeons by replying to this thread! See you soon!
Your BLESS Team
