- Atos answered about 01:30:50

54:28 thesometimeslurker: !question
Will there be some updates to how some of the chaos spells work? As a chaos mage it's frustrating to scrounge for chips, train all the skills up for attunement, and only use Feedback, lesser daemon, and chaos bolt....

1:12:46 thesometimeslurker: !question
Where are the chaos gems for raising attunement?
- Atos answered about 01:33:45

- Atos responded about 01:33:20

1:36:02 Coswald_Dirthmire: Hmm, does that mean it's unlikely we'll get a tier above epic?
- Atos responded about 01:36:20

1:36:49 thelacedaemonian: !question, some artifacts are mega hard to get even a common to drop..... so a spider bow or a savage sash or a xen bow would never ever ever ever be salvaged

- Atos responded about 1:37:50

1:38:00 Aleksander_SOTA: !question

Please dont put in the hide character option! If people want that option just unfriend players.
