Necromancy: Community Feedback Update - #2

Originele tekst

Lanterns up, 'Scapers!

We're back for another week of Community Feedback for Necromancy. The Necromancy team are still hard at work, collaborating closely with the Community team to ensure we're hearing your feedback and making tweaks and fixing any issues that arise!

What's the Necrotic News?

This blog is designed to inform you on issues that the Necromancy development team are actively investigating, working on, or have addressed based on Community feedback. We're utilising these blogs as a way to keep you updated on the issues we're tracking, what we're working on and what's been resolved.

This is the second weekly update, for last week's update, including lots of fixes you might have missed last week, please check here: https://rs.game/NecromancyNews1.

Issues from the Immaterial

If you're looking to report a bug or issue, please check this list, each week, to see if we're already tracking your issue in the list below. On desktop browsers, you can search with Ctrl+F, and most mobile browsers have a "Find in Page" option in the additional options in the top browser bar.

If you're not seeing the issue listed below, please log a bug report in-game by pressing Escape, and clicking "Report Issue" in the bottom left corner of the options window, then click "Report a Bug", the right-hand button. The community team are also monitoring our social spaces across Discord, Reddit, Twitter and Meta platforms.

Catacombs and Categories

What are the issues we're looking at? We'll be categorising these issues into four brackets. These are:

🔍 INVESTIGATING 🔍

Players have raised this feedback or reported this issue occurring, and the development team are currently investigating. If it is an issue, the team will investigate how, or if, this can be resolved.

⏳ AWAITING SYSTEM UPDATE⏳

Not every issue can be resolved via hotfix (applied without a server restart) so some of these issues will need to be applied during weekly updates on Mondays.

✅ RESOLVED ✅

Success! The issue has been resolved in the live game at the time of this article's publication.

🚫 CLOSED 🚫

Some issues raised will not require fixes, or cannot be verified or replicated by the development team. Additional context will be provided about these particular issues where possible.

As of Friday, August 18th, the following topics have been raised:

🔍 INVESTIGATING 🔍

  • Death Skulls can double dip on damage buffs (We like damage ramping, so may look to find a solution that's appropriate)
  • Dodging an attack can fail to cause auto-retaliate.
  • Conjuring / Commanding out of combat can cost 0 adrenaline (Considering rebalances of their adrenaline costs to keep some of this functionality)
  • Necromancy Lanterns are sometimes held improperly.
