just wanted to say..

Kudos DE. I've been loving the game recently. Jade Shadows is finally going to improve the status system and make Blast/Magnetic viable (and so much other stuff)! Ember Heirloom! All the lovely pride colors and deco items! Line of sight and sticky corner fixes! So many great improvements and announcements recently and I've never been more excited for what is around the corner.

Here's hoping we get some juicy 1999 teasers at Tennocon (Maybe something to do with Volt??)

Which part of Jade Shadows are you hyped for?

jade frame and arcane event,Ember skin.

New Blast sounds fun. I'm surprised it took them this long to make Blast also act like blast. What have been its effects in the past? Stagger and new stagger caused knockdown in wide area and later it became "-% Accuracy for enemies"

Of course the arcane event. Maybe I'll finally max the rest of mine.

I guess they didn't want to lean too much into AoE dominance before, but changed their minds? The changes to magnetic are pretty similar.

The entire status rework is something I'm very interested in - not least because both Ember and Frost will be getting boosts, as Fire and Cold damage is both being buffed.

Amusing then that Blast is finally being looked at. Appropriate, but amusing.

Jade Shadows should be interesting, and might lead to more lore theorycrafting - but I'm more interested to see if Jade's weapons get Incarnon adapters, like the Stalker's weapons have.

Just to rein in those expectations; there have been many status and line of sight reworks. They don't tend to favor the "playing the game" experience. Just keep in mind that many times things are promised and its not often that it comes in a way similar to the presentation. I hope it works out for you, but don't get too excited.

Yes, Kudos DE is right. Some cool updates this year, for newer and experienced players, imho.

Jade Shadows looks promising.

I wish I could sell my founders account. Shrugs.

I believe their justification was that they wanted each status to have an effect that builds up with stack and you can't do that with knockdown

It always annoyed me, because anyone with half a brain recognized the new status is just useless while the old one had niche application. I myself was using Cold+Blast Artax to create super long-lasting knockdowns.

Yeah to hell with any positivity! Be negative always! /s

On topic: I really liked the much clearer stats conveyance and the status adjustments. I'm happier where the game is right now.
I really love the look of Stalker's ship too!

The star chart UI is soooooooo much cleaner and I do love that they give pointers on damage type for either new players or casual ones.
