Nah I'm done.
Nah, this isn't fun any more. One hit run/roll, rinse and repeat isn't what I would call a fun game. Breaks the feel of what a tank/damage dealer should be. I enjoyed using a big hammer. Now I get one hit and have to roll away? gee thanks. Meanwhile dagger spam is unchanged. So I can hit a thing for ages with a set of daggers, but a big hammer is verboten? I knew this was going to kill it for me, but I thought id give it a try just in case, but no, sure enough its killed it. No heavy combos for any "big" weapon, so that attack chain is completely dead. They might as well remove the animations from the game as they are never going to get used anymore.

If you wanted to make it more "engaging" design more attack patterns for the enemies. Make them more unpredictable so that just running in circles doesn't avoid 90% of the attacks. Or is that too hard? Unbelievable.

Game hasn't been much fun since Sorcery landed. They really need to roll things back.

I'll have to take your word for that, I only started playing in feb and had a fair bit of fun. Now though.. I cant play. Just sucked all the fun I was having right out of it.

Imagine my pre-patch corrupted attributes build with something around 90 stamina and 2H hammer :LaughingOwlcat:

Yeah I can imagine. One swipe and backtrack/sidestep I would assume since you wont have enough to roll. Not that you would want to be in the fight anyway with half health and the damage buffs they get will probably kill you in two swipes.

And now i can't count on any whirlwind strikes which previously saved me from enemy surroundings in case thrall failed agro. And with the increased damage of the mobs, I'm not sure that the crowd will simply not tear my thrall apart.
The wine cellar skeleton mini-bosses were doing a lot of damage to my thrall and me. This and the boss fight itself should show how it works in the current realities. Haven't gotten around to trying it yet.

wielding 2h weapon destroys your stamina too hard and makes it nearly impossible to fight

wtf is this correct? my stat sheet says im doing 322 dmg with my legendary weapon but when i go to hit a normal human npc in a camp i only do 20dmg and mind you this is with full str dps build. Then they turn around and smack me once for 150-200 damage with BIS gear. wtf is happening.

It's like they're taking a step back with every update when it's very obvious what would make it better.

I haven't even updated to the latest patch and I can tell that this new "addition" is the final nail in the coffin. I've had 3 servers up for about a year, paying almost £100 a month for
server upkeep and have had decent player counts on and off but it's time to shut it down and shelf the game.

Good job Funcom, you've effectively killed your game with this one.

Yeah, I was a new(ish) player and was looking forward to having a regular time on this with my buddies, but at this rate we probably wont be reupping our servers. Well unless theres a mod that undoes the stamina nerfs. Then maybe we might keep playing. If not we wont be back until its fixed, or if we do, all we will be doing is building. That's literally the only fun part of this now. Conan themed Mincraft.

wow, alot of liars in this thread. first off, unless you're completely ignoring Grit, you have plenty of Stamina to finish a Heavy Combo (because gee, it's almost like wielding a massive weapon would naturally require you to have more stamina to wield effectively) second, you can still do combos with lower stamina if you weave light attacks into it instead of mindlessly spamming heavy attacks. Theory in particular is lying through their teeth as NO legendary is going to be doing "only 20 damage" even if you DIDN'T have anything in strength.

I played the game years ago and returned during age of sorcery and I'm enjoying the game much more now.

There's various mods that changes all kinds of things and I'm certain that the changes to at least stamina, can be greatly improved through simple server configuration, but honestly I can't be bothered with it anymore, to always have to try and make thing more viable and maintain some semblance of normalcy.

Well, I was specced into full srt vit and auth in my original char and no, I couldnt get more than a couple of swings out. On my siptah char im specced in Agi vit and grit with 5 points in expertise. And I STILL cannot swing more than three times. 185 stamina and it takes almost half of my stamina pool to swing that hammer. So what the hell are you talking about?
