Release 52 Post Draft: Feedback Please

I would have sworn that I read it was going to be 100% Unlearn for both R51 and R52, but I just reviewed the notes from both and can't find it.
I did find this in the R50 Instructions:

I'm gonna PM @DarkStarr and find out for certain (if he responds), and will post his response here.

 

https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/f...s/r50-r51-skill-unlearning-100-return.108673/

 

With many changes still coming, I am just wondering if its still going to be on the table or not.

 

Now I know why I couldn't find where we were told the duration of the 100% Unlearn.

Here's the Forum search I did, where I searched for unlearning, by Darkstarr, in all forums:



As you can see above, there were no threads by Darkstarr that included the word "unlearning" while searching All Forums.

And yet, as Mischievous Dragon pointed out above - there WAS a post (in fact "unlearning" was both in the title and the body as seen below):



So, what's up with the forum search engine ??

 

Great stuff. Did most of this

 

is this a new one or is this the drachvald one mislabeled?

"Potion Skill Requirement Balance: When the last sets of potions were added, their skill level requirements were all incorrectly set at level 1 instead of having the skill level based on the power of the potion. This has been balanced properly in R52"

This is a little confusing is it alchemy skill level to use the potion? If it is then please put Alchemy next to the word skill so it's more easily understood.

 

I think that perhaps another mistake slipped into the Instructions while editing? I discovered this:

Scene Rebuilds: The following scenes were previously clones of other adventure scenes
but were completely rebuilt for this release.blood river
■ Quel Shardfall (formerly North Quel Woods): The great Cataclysm from the
shattering of the two moons happened hundreds of years ago and showered the land

It looks like "blood river" just snuck into it . . .

 

Should these be noted as "Dev+ Asset Packs", or note that they were provided to "players with Developer tier pledges prior to August 31st, 2015", to forestall any questions of who can get these?

I didn't know until seeing the splash screen tip for this, but the player instructions have a dedicated URL. Rather than linking to the Google Doc directly, consider using www.shroudoftheavatar.com/playerinstructions and www.shroudoftheavatar.com/knownissues, which redirect to the proper Google Doc. These URLs are MUCH friendlier!

 

and also much friendlier to put an in game link you can click on for the 'places to live' URLs in the book and on the bulletin board in the NPC towns. I'm sorry I just have to say it.

 

@DarkStarr Does this mean that ALL the pledge rewards, including house deeds, will now be available offline with R52? Will we finally be able to purchase a LOTM Home or even the Grand Chataeu?

This is from the Q1 2018 Schedule Update:

Now that we have reviewed the vision here is the broad overview of the launch content:

• Multiple Play Modes:
  • Offline Mode with special features and content
    • Save Games
    • All Store, Pledge, Bundle Items available for gold in-game
    • Combat Balance
    • Companions

 

@DarkStarr
I noticed this:

I have an open ticket on "flat" equipment currently in the game which included the Ardoris Priestess Robe, a number of the old stretch goal items are "flat", I've posted about this since they first appeared in the game because I had been waiting for them. I hope these other "flat" pieces are fixed from this thread:

1. Gentlemen's Admiral Armor
2. Gentlemen's Riding Armor
3. Ladies' Admiral Armor
4. Ladies' Riding Armor
5. Elite Mage Armor
6. Ardoris Shogun Robe
7. Ardoris Priestess Robe
8. Ardoris Kimono
9. Firedancer Top
10. Torn Wedding Dress
11. Torn Wedding Tuxedo (there's at least 4 tuxedo's in-game, this is the only flat one)
12. Wealthy Merchant Outfit

, Plains Encounter in Hidden Vale (Purple),
There are no stag encounters in Hidden Vale so not likely to find purple dragons. Unless they will be added at launch. Speculation from the masses is that is a typo and meant for Drachvald not Hidden Vale.
Would like clarification one way or another on this.
