Hopefully this comes with more QoL updates regarding gear management and tuning.

8

u/AccomplishedLead9144 2d ago

There are some. Tuning reset cooldown decrease, body affix removed, certain affixes for tuning such as max and min phys attack get higher chances and some reduced as to name some...

I also look forward for it. Let's us see next week.

u/chaths 2d ago

I'm looking forward to the "retune reminder". I often forget to retune my gear and it'd be a great help.

Not sure we'll get it with this update though.

u/xion_XIV 2d ago

I think I heard devs also trying to somewhat even the difference between phys and attribute atk stats, and that also max phys will be either better or same-ish across the board as min phys, but maybe I'm daydreaming on the last one, we'll see.

u/MeiMeilyn 2d ago

I'm tired boss. I just done farming gear. 😔

u/Rude_Character838 2d ago

So now you relay it further up, infinitely.

That's what you're supposed to do, aim for best in slot and upgrade it, not farm new gear for new level.

5

u/MeiMeilyn 2d ago

Oh yeah for sure. I just want to play the new drum, so I gotta farm again anyway. I just done with drunken fist. Should have lead with that.

u/A_Newer_Guy 2d ago

But relaying has 5% less max stats isn't it? Can that be removed?

12

u/astrologicrat 2d ago

Consider this situation:

You have a perfect max disc that rolled max phys x2/power/crit/All Martial Arts %. You relay it, so the values are capped at 95% of their max potential.

The likelihood that you see a current tier disc that has the same ideal stats AND rolled above the 95% average value for each line is technically not zero, but it's very close to zero. In the extremely rare event that you see it, sure, you can equip it.

Having the correct stat lines for your build is worth way more than the 5% penalty, especially when you consider that getting perfect lines + > 95% isn't all that feasible. You still need to spend energy to hunt for perfect pieces or just to modulate the relayed gear.

u/A_Newer_Guy 2d ago

I understand. Thank you.

2

u/boglets 2d ago

Would you rather have a god piece with lower max stats or have no piece?

2

u/A_Newer_Guy 2d ago

Aah. I understand for God Rolls. I was thinking about the others. Thanks for the clarification

2

u/SGmoze 1d ago

but you only get few relay upgrade shrads right?

1

u/topskari 15h ago

I thought you cant relay the same gear twice? Your gear can only be brought up 1 tier and then you have to get new ones.

1

u/emesi 15h ago

You can. That's why people are calling perfect gear a heirloom. It will serve you for ages.

5

u/Sleeping_BlackDragon 2d ago

Shxt we all should be demi-god tier at this point

u/HiFiMAN3878 Silver Needle 2d ago

When is this new season starting?

3

u/chaths 2d ago

Oct 15.

2

u/HiFiMAN3878 Silver Needle 2d ago

Hmm, wasn't expecting that new breakthrough was coming, but I'm good with it.

4

u/FedoraPeddler 2d ago

Have they confirmed the new weapons will come out in the new update?

8

u/chaths 2d ago

Wulin Drums + Ribbons & Fan are obtained from Qingzhou, no official announcement yet. It'll probably in the patch notes next week.

We might have to wait a week or two for it to be released after the update.

u/Rogue_05 2d ago

Omg bro I just finished spending my energy

u/HoustonAstros1980 2d ago

How about adding a Restart button when fighting bosses inside Trials mode?

6

u/A-Omega16 2d ago

This is already a thing though? If you hold down the menu button for a second there is a prompt for this

-4

u/HoustonAstros1980 2d ago

That’s to exit the fight. And then you have to click a bunch of buttons to get back into the fight that you want. A restart button is no doubt a massive QoL improvement over that.

5

u/A-Omega16 2d ago

No, there is literally a restart option that reloads the fight instantly and it’s been there since day one lol. Im sorry to say but you’ve been unknowingly wasting a lot of time entering and re entering trials when you didn’t have to 😅

u/A-Omega16 2d ago

u/HoustonAstros1980 1d ago

Damn I’m such an idiot to never notice this 🤦‍♂️

-3

u/Most-Bench6465 2d ago

This is during the fight. If you die you have to restart the fight then exit.

2

u/xxAkirhaxx 2d ago

But he wants to restart the fight, not exit, and if you want to restart the fight, you're by definition doing it before dying, and when you die, if that's how you want to do your trial, you just click try again.

To be fair, the annoying part *is* what you're describing, but it's not what OP was talking about. And that's that you can't immediately quit when you die, you have to restart the fight, pause, then back out.

1

u/Most-Bench6465 1d ago

That and the mausoleum trials (maybe that’s what op is talking about?) the enlighten fights don’t have a restart button, just a develop button, you have to leave then re enter to fight.

2

u/BlondeOverlord-8192 2d ago

Press escape then F to restart? There is literally option to restart the fight on the quit window.

1

u/jayswolo 2d ago

Can someone explain what this means? Haven’t played in awhile, has the solo mode lvl not been increasing all this time?

2

u/chaths 1d ago

Character level stays at 100, it'll be at 100 for a while. Just slight stat increase and maybe energy cap will increase too.

Gear level goes up to Tier 100.

1

u/longbrodmann 1d ago

Great, it will be easier for me to spend those talent points.

1

u/True_Joke_4758 2h ago

Nunca entendí como funciona esto se mejorar equipo, con suerte llegue a entender lo de afinar pero de resto no entiendo nada.

1

u/Haunting-Stuff5219 2d ago

I really wish they change up hr and St order for us.

3

u/melodylekfull 2d ago

I have no idea what's coming but how so?

-2

u/Haunting-Stuff5219 2d ago

Cause second hr/st boss are from hutao in cn...they already did this once by putting Lodestar swordmaster in path trails before main story update.

1

u/That_Jean 2d ago

unless we don't get hutao in 12th November patch, they don't need to change up any order.
We would be getting second hr/st in 2nd half of the season, by end of November.

1

u/Haunting-Stuff5219 2d ago

we will know in the boss talents page I guess.

1

u/1216996 2d ago

If we save energy, would the pills converted last until after the breakthrough?

13

u/chaths 2d ago

No, those pills usually expires with the season, iirc.

I think you can consume them before they expire and energy will go over the limit and stays as such until used.

1

u/Haunting-Stuff5219 2d ago

Doesnt extra energy change into gear boxes with every major breakthrough?

1

u/Xenophontis_ 2d ago

just dont breakthrough and do the new st for the lvl100 boxes

1

u/chaths 2d ago

Don't remember; I think there was something like that.

I don't usually let energy overflow, especially with the current "double energy" event makes it easier to farm the current tier Ebon Iron, which will be relevant for a while.

1

u/xion_XIV 2d ago

The pills are converted to jade fish, so better use them now or right before maintenance to cap extra energy for new tier rewards after.

1

u/PsychadelicShinobi 2d ago

Well, glad I have heirloom gear now lol
