Thank you this cleared up a lot of stuff for me as a new player. Question though, did they remake the UI to what it is today or is there a way to view armor sets in the crafting menu like you have? I find this is a way better UI than what we currently have..
Lol I have my main lowlife build all surged now i need my offset builds to come up to snuff (mainly I just need to power surge lightning doggo head piece because energized is cracked for boreus chainblades.)
@@OhDough lol I guess in a way my boreus chainblades build is a battle mage build. Mostly just using 3 boreus and stormclaw helm with 6 energized (5 right now for me because I have yet to surge the head with a plus three energized in lantern.)

Honestly, IMO it’s very unwelcoming to new players which start with nothing not like the vets who got their gear to 15+ and received more aetherhearts. I also like trying different builds but u really gotta know what to upgrade otherwise u gotta grind all over again.
@@Spawndevil02 absolutely. Especially in the beginning you want to progress. Become stronger to deal with stronger behemoths and not play a sinus curve of progression. For people who have done everything else already it's differently. Not the most fun but not as crushing as for a newer player who probably just loses motivation at that point.
Tbh the update hit the middle-ground players the most, those being the people who upgraded their gear to +10 for the innate cell upgrade. I am amongst them, since I was only a casual player and farming heroic+ patrols was draining to do repeatedly. The conversion rate from upgrade level per gear to aetherhearts was outright insulting. For +15 gear they'd give out 1 aetherheart, which is fair, while for +10 gear they'd reimburse 1/16 of an aetherheart. This bothers me the most because you need to power surge items to get them +3 on the innate cell.

The old upgrade system was fine in my opinion and they had no reason to change it that drastically. Had they made this update not screw us up so badly maybe I wouldn't be complaining but what else can I do when they ruined my builds and reimbursed me for not even 2 sets of armor.
@@electrobrotm217 there also was little to no reason to go the way to +15. People crafted +10 to get the +3 on cells. The little damage increase between +10 and +15 wasn't worth the effort. I was also under the people who thought do I farm heroic+ for that tiny increase in damage or do I play escalations which are fun?
Yo Dough firstly shout out for the content all the way from South Africa.... Sooo I recently done my first reforge my sword was at 500 and its back down to 160 I can't even do an escalation did I become weaker or do I need to go and grind hunting grounds before I can do esca again???
I'm np Dough but I went with randoms to 10-50 esca with powersurged weapon at 10th level. It's just the more you grind dem level the stronger you become, so it is not necessary, just depends on how skilled you think you are.
How do you have your layout in crafting to be like this? Mine is categorised by "Helm, Armor, Gloves, Boots" I rather it be by behemoth like yours.... I can't figure out how to do it.
can we still power surge our armors? i dont see anything like the armor upgrade & crafting in this vid compared to when im in game, just started playing in 2021. Do we have to complete certain quests to unlock armor power surging? weapon surge only can happen once as well. Is this just the new update? nerfing one shot builds etc? i really wanna do some good damage but after watching vids, it only got more confusing as i do not see any way of power surging our armor and weapon to +15 etc.
Nice videos man! Im a returing player in the pc version. Btw how can I make the amor sets appear as sets like you see them in th video and not one by one?
@@zhiwooyi every few reforges allows you to unlock a permanent buff dependant on the weapon being reforged. Sword gets meter generation, axe is a power increase for all weapons, pike and hammer increase wound/stagger respectively, strikers give attack speed, repeaters give movement speed. Recently we also got another reforge unlock branch you spend merits on to get up to 15% extra xp from behemoths permanently (3% per node unlocked) Edit: forgot chain blades. They give stamina use reduction.
So Just to know you can Power surge but you can't rank up your armor right? Because I was thinking that If you reach 20 with a weapon not only your weapon would rank up but your armor to
I don't like the system of normal gear is extremely easy to craft and power surging is extremely hard to do. I liked the old way a lot more when you had to kill strong behemoths to get materials to craft better gear. The power surging also takes away any connection between the item and the behemoth. It's just level your weapon.. bam stronger.. level your weapon.. This shouldn't be the system from the beginning on.
So, I haven't played the game in like a year or more, but recently came back to it, is there really any point in trying to get break parts anymore? If all the stuff is so easy to craft and you don't need to upgrade it with parts anymore, is there some other use for them now?
I’m gonna be honest here I’m still so confused ok so I can equip any armor I want but the only thing that I should be looking at is the little core slot things so the resistances don’t matter???
I personally use gnasher- gloves and chest, alarm helm and boreus boots gets me iceborne tough and rage hunter, I combine that with hellion weapons for dps.
Hey Dough, I have a question, and I may not be the only one having this sort of question. Is there a way to re-unlock the ability to purchase items from Admiral Zai and Granny Strega? Before the update, I was able to use rams to buy items such as tonics and grenades. But after the update, that is no longer a thing. Where can I go to send a ticket to the devs on this?
Would really like an update to this video. Can't find any as of Patch 1.8.4. Love your content but so confusing when im looking for iceborne cells and discipline cells lmaoo.
Its my first time in almost a yr. Playing again. It may be a stupid question? Do i need a full set to make a build? Or i can combine pieces to make 1? .
@@brodywhite4040 do you mean the elemental resistance? Short answer, yes you can ignore it but...it depends on how good you are tbh. and what you are doing. If you use iceborn you can ignore elemental res for a good part as well if you don't get hit. Fire is more or less the most important to have because the burning status can easily kill you. That said people prefer to use molten in these cases. If you do escalations maybe don't go in with -75 of that specific element. Even in hunting grounds you can see before what kind of behemoths you can find. Having one item that gives you negative res isn't as crucial though. It's probably better to have a good build. I myself built a lot of set-ups with +-0 but nowadays I don't look at the ele res anymore.
I'm so confused.... do u mix the armor sets up?? Or do u use what element is strong against what you are fighting? Can someone please clear this up for me??
I’m sure conduit stacks with teammates’? Why else is attack speed sometimes off the charts around teammates? I assumed it was because multiple people are running conduit.
You need to find the exotic blueprint from heroic behemoths but the reforge has temporarily removed the exotic from dropping until Phoenix labs does their rework of the exotics (those who had exotics pre reforge kept them for use though)
To power surge every piece of armor it will cost u almost a million Rams and 110 something Aeitherhearts. Don't do what I did but hopefully this helps the people who wanted to know.
@@moonmanstan Well when You're completionist u complete everything. The only thing I will never complete is getting the golden crown. I will unlock everything else. Good day sir/ma'am
so I've been playing this game for a bit and i already have aetherhearts I just need the rams, or gold to power surge. whats the best way to earn those quickly nowadays?
Escalations (13-50) usually gave out a lot of ram but it's usually 3000~ and could be even lower since I think it scales off of your score for each round.
I did what the objective said for reza on multiple occasions for hidden visage VI the game still wouldn’t think I did it and I don’t wanna spend my platinum to skip it, what should I do?
The flawless kill (less than 100 damage taken)? Reza tends to be really rude with all the light orbs but even damage to shields count against the objective
@@TwentyFourSevenStaringAtYou maybe the objective glitched out like the 1st step for the embermane terra helm? That one had a no cost skip once all other objectives were met (i.e. the hunt pass xp grind)
So what’s the point of power surging as a mechanic in the game if armor isn’t worth power surging. Man I’m so confused, I literally stopped playing the game for 5 months now I feel like a noob wtf.
I just returned after a while and i really hate what they have done it's so painstaking to do it, imagine power surging 4 pieces of gear, i have to go from 0 to 20 for any weapon and repeat 4 times, this is just a really dumb way of "enchanting" which takes 2-3 days for me and i'm not even mentioning the aethersparks oh god... it's just very boring to level up weapons and kills the game imo
Was there a heroic quillshot on the map? They seem to snipe across the islands when they enrage and auto launch spines at everyone it can target (even people not engaging it and increasing its scaling)
Don’t want to be the one to say it but, this re work is probably the worst thing for this game. It pushes away new players or beginner players who aren’t that good. You never truly feel as powerful as you did before because of constant resets. The grind is a lot more difficult. The rework Catters to much for vets kinda sad they didn’t add a new weapon yet but decides to rework the entire game.

The way to get aetherheart is painfull, nerf yourself, level up back to 20 and repeat, its annoying. Patrol atleast didn't made you lose anything.

Try searching for chests on the islands, playing escalation and events. In escalation 1-13 i think u gain 200+ per behemoth.
Escalations (13-50) usually gave out a lot of ram but it's usually 3000~ and could be even lower since I think it scales off of your score for each round.
There are patrol chest guides, and each chest gives you 1,500-2,000 rams. Each island has 6 patrol chests so that’s 9,000-12,000 rams per island.
