Grim Dawn Version 1.1.7.1 Hotfix 1

[fordprefect]

Yesssss.

Same thought?

[Duchy]

• Alkamos’ Scythe: increased Cold damage modifier for Blitz to 220 and added Pneumatic Burst modifiers
• Alkamos’ Warsword: increased Cold damage modifier for Vire’s Might to 120

Why is there still armor piercing on the Scythe? The Warsword doesn’t have it. It is useless. Remove it and that will be nice last buff and then the weapon can be useful.

I would also like to see Steward’s Halberd getting bonus to Blitz instead of Cadence. And CDR instead of AS.

[Deus_Mortem]

• Belgothian’s Slaughter Set: reduced % Weapon damage on the granted skill to 140%
• Belgothian’s Mask: reduced % Weapon damage modifier for Markovian’s Advantage to 30%

Knowing that this would happen, I prefer to keep the established probabilities to the liabilities of the Nightblade until before V. 1.1.7.1.

Personally, this Nerf seems absurd to me considering that this set does not have defense sources, not to mention the absurd weapon bonuses (50 of damage by perforation) and the set bonuses 2 and 3 (50 of DA and 18 of Damage by perforation) and what to say about the Helmet (40 damage from perforation to Execution)

If you modify something then see the way to compensate it.

No need to compensate for a nerf.

Chillwhisper Blade Spirit nerf hurts a bit. My Reaper is already struggling with most of endgame, the leech from BSpirit was pretty crucial…

I also noticed that from The Mageslayer set I almost always drop the gloves. I have 17 of them, 2 shoulders and 1 amulet. It is transformable easily but maybe the droprate should be changed so that other parts drop as well from the set.

Oh man, funny you should say that because I JUST made a Mageslayer character and my situation is exactly the same. The glove drop rate is way too high compared to the other pieces.

[Duchy]

Could we get a dagger like Hexflame for cold AAR? In current state ít is not possible to make cold AAR with The Mageslayer set because cold AAR needs amulet for it to work. Fire and lightning conversion to cold for AAR would be fine. It could have a bit of global aether to cold and the rest will be done by Star Pact. Perhaps bonus for casting speed to Star Pact as well.

• Thermite Mine: increased radius to 2.4

that is excellent.

Alkamos’ Scythe: increased Cold damage modifier for Blitz to 220 and added Pneumatic Burst modifiers

I had a character made for this weapon I haven’t touched over a year.

The set is still dominantly Lightning/Electrocute over Aether. It’s not out the question for well-known mortals to utilise Aether either, even a few members of the Erulan Inquisition like Allagast dabbled so one can argue they’re fine with it if it is controlled.

If you want to look at it another way, it’s also another neat example of how some of the righteous forces in Grim Dawn are willing to use whatever powers they can (even if malevolent or drawn from their enemies) if it aids them in their quest as is the case with Kymon’s Chosen - to them, the ends justify the means.

yeah, kymon’s chosen also steals many power from various sources for their own ends. this habit even continues to korvaak’s cultists, which shows some former ‘good’ celestials can fallen like how many inquisitors and oathkeepers turned into witch gods cultists or chthonic cultists.

but at least in those case, the item is often accompanied by detailed description of how the holy power inside it or its previous owner got corrupted by eldritch/void/ravager/yugol/other dark powers.

the reverse also happens by the way… like edith, a chthonian cultist who became demonslayer.

it is these kind of ‘perverted’ items that make item & lore diversity in grim dawn so vast. coupled with the conversion mechanics, no wonder there are so many builds to explore.

maybe we’ll get some items that has every bonus for every damage type in grim dawn at some point? inefficient but amusing jack of all trade builds will be interesting…

When is the game going to be updated to 1.1.7.1 for GOG?

Good question actually… usually the Galaxy client gets the update near immediately but it still hasn’t for this hotfix yet, which is a little odd.

[IraqiMaestro]

Agreed , atleast cap it at 30% Conversion instead

[medea_fleecestealer]

Welcome to the forum.

When GOG finish doing whatever they need to do at their end.

[FernandeZ]

Dear Developers.

Thank you very much for the Update.
A special thank for bringing in a mythical version of the Marrow Band.

And a very interesting change for my Spellbinder Pet Build has happend. I am still struggling with my Skelletons. But I have seen that there are additions for “Call of the Grave”. I will try to farm the new MI items a bit and will see if the “Health” additions will be able to heal my Skeletons as the Spellbinder has no real opportunity to do that.

So Thank you again for the update. Let’s see if I can get a double rare version of the new MI for my Spellbinder Pet Build. At the moment I am not really confident to get a combination like Theurgist’s Ballog’s Core of Caged Souls… or like Theurgist’s Death Watcher Pendant of the Wild but we will see

Have a nice weekend all together.

Best regards
FernandeZ

• Belgothian’s Slaughter Set: reduced % Weapon damage on the granted skill to 140%

Well, not only BM uses Belgo and my infiltrator never was outperforming. Although damage nerf seems fair, but still Belgo is a glassy cannon, at least compensate it with defensive bonuses…

Mythical Aethereach: removed Aether damage modifier for Albrecht’s Aether Ray and increased its Energy Cost Reduction modifier to 8%

Any thoughts when crusade against AAR will be finished? Do Crate intend to nerf it to that point when no one really will want to use it.

[singletrack]

I’m just happy they finally made the Nature’s Avenger set buff duration longer than the cooldown. It was bugging me for the longest time.

[RedPriest]

Someone tell GOG to get their act together. Still waiting for them to release the hotfix
Surely it can’t be that hard …

[Flix]

I saw on GOG"s facebook page that they were having some site-wide technical issues yesterday. Don’t think the delay is specific to Grim Dawn.

[Anonymous918]

I was a pretty big supporter of GOG years ago, and I still am a fan of their consumer friendliness, but it was their lagging behind on getting patches up that made me stick with steam for new games.
