    I remember seeing a few things regarding Spiritous Swamp's traps being fixed. Namely, a model was updated so you could no longer fall into it. There may be a few notes missing here and there as this delta is partly finished.

    I'm elated the Honored Knight of Creation title is now getting a bonus, but slightly disappointed that it's +50 Summoning. The boost is ok, but considering there are only two summoning spells in the game and no definitive plans for any more in the future, perhaps a different bonus? Block chance? Armor? 1hs/2hs? They are knights primarily and, as I've been continuously told, mages second.

    I'd love to see the ability to get the Most Honored Knight of Creation title eventually. But that's off topic.

    You will either have the difference given to you or the items refunded at the original price for you to repurchase at new prices. Either way, there will be compensation.

    This has since been changed to a +3 Block Bonus.

    I apologize that I start to comment on that delta with a rant:

    Again you take away something- you once gave us -and we ve been working hard for:


    --"Title Award: Unsung Hero” is now known as “Title Bonus: Epic Award I” and grants +25 Attack Skill and +5 DPS instead of +100 Attack Skill.--"


    you should not do that!!

    This Questline is a very special one. A very good one. One of the best in my eyes.
    And perfect for those who play Istaria in a more soft and solo way- and not llfg all years long and kill greater epics 1000x

    Pls reconsider- it will not be a game breaker to take that back

    I want to be sure there are no misunderstandings. In the previous changes, the title revamp originally touched Unsung Hero by making its award into the passive "Title Award: Unsung Hero".

    This award, granting +100 Attack Skill, was already overwritten by the previous epic title system. The first award in the original system, Title Award I: Lesser Epic I, grants +50 Attack Skill and +10DPS.

    This meant that from your very first epic title - even from killing 10 of a lesser epic, something most players do - would downgrade your attack skill from Unsung Hero by 50. This felt exceptionally odd to us as you should not lose a stat by moving forward.

    In rebalancing it, we changed the title to grant +25 Attack Skill and +5 DPS to follow the rest of the epic rewards. It was then renamed so it was clearer that it would be overwritten by epic titles, as it was not at all clear in the past.

    Unsung Hero will still grant the bonus, it was not taken away, but it will grant a different bonus.

    Does that make more sense? I hope I addressed your concern.

    thy much for answering Sars!

    I understand what you said
    but
    IMHO, this questline is something special and more challenging like the epic title quests kill lesser /greater /whatsoever-xtimes.
    (same goes for e.g. "attunement to Delga " quests too)
    and should have a special reward (yes yes- hero`s resolve -)
    not the same what you get if you kill 20 lesser.
    Believe it or not:
    Unsung Hero sometimes is the only "title quest"some player do- means they are not interested in epic title quests.

    hmm- not sure if I could explain what I ment^^
    but I did what I ve been asked for- may the native speaker post something here too^^

    thanks for listening

    Unsung Hero is hard to get and should not be downgraded!!!!!! For those of us who don't do many Epic fights, our chances to get some nice abilities are quite limited. Not everyone is the same type of gamer.

    We spoke about this internally and we may consider a unique title bonus from Unsung Hero in the future.

    I do want to reiterate that the change from +100 Attack Skill (chance to hit) to +25 attack skill (chance to hit) with an additional +5 damage (delay adjusted) is, in most situations, better than the additional +75 attack skill (chance to hit). One will increase your chance to hit marginally, while the other increases your chance to hit some and also greatly increases your damage output on every class.

    Internally, we've considered it a buff. Regardless, we are taking your feedback into consideration while reviewing the titles remaining that do not grant bonuses.

    Thanks so much for not simply holding it in abeyance or ignore it,

    But you DO on the other hand understand whats the intention behind our objection

    If it's like how it's in the current epic titles, which seems to be the implication, it's an always on kind of thing that just directly adds to your damage, let me make a (mostly speculative) example:

    You have a weapon that has:
    -40-60 damage
    -20 delay

    You get the +5 dps as a passive from the title. because it's dps this actually is +10 for the weapon since it's 5*(20/10).

    So your new damage is 50-70, before calculations, about a 25%~ increase

    Where as before you maybe got a very slight increase in your chance to hit, even +100 skill does very little from my understanding and theorycrafting.

    Big fan of the change myself as someone that also doesn't have the energy to go for the epic titles, +100 attack skill might seem like a lot but since it's just chance to hit, I'll take an incredible increase in damage over that any day!
