Grim Dawn Version v1.0.0.9

[dimcase]

To be fair crowds were already controlled by freeze without night’s embrace but yes it was a bit too powerful and trivialized bosses and nemeses.

Question for GOG users. Has there been an update to patch 0.9 for any users?

Galaxy still isn’t updating.

Nope ATM. :mad:

Don’t give me all those “there are other belts” crap, because I’ve been using Valbury belts with rare affixes. They’re better in almost every way (all capped resistances and still shred everything). I don’t use Thorn Girdle past Lv70, so stop thinking that I’m complaining because it breaks my builds.

Here it is again:
The point is that there are a crapton of legendary belts for Bleed damage already. Changing Thorn Girdle to Bleed drops the number of Acid/Poison legendary belts to a whopping ZERO.
While it doesn’t really matter when you argue about max-level characters, it does when you’re in mid-game levels. It also does matter in a game that emphasizes making your own builds, especially when you’re a beginner (and think legendaries are bomb) then search for legendary belts for your poison commando or whatever.

First off, i didn’t mean to assume anything about using that belt in any of your builds or not, neither to offend you the slightest bit but sorry anyway.

And i totally get your point, i just have no problem of not having a legendary poison belt (as of now; i bet we get some in the exp) in GD.
(At least it tries to (pretty artificially though) break the noob trap of "have to put items with %damage to my main type in every slot (forgoing survivability):undecided:). /s

Imho gameplay wise the change is unimportant, but regarding flavor it’s all the better this way cuz those Vines are indeed Thorny, could very possibly grow in the Misty Glade and definitely deal bleed damage ;).

edit:
I realized i went a bit hollow here so on a serious note:

The number of “poison/acid legendary belts” was’t dropped but stayed at zero since some lowish %damage didn’t make old Thorn Girdle a poison/acid belt at all (imo).

It had only 2 viable reasons to use it (at least temporarily) and none of them was exclusive to poison builds:

1. Max. poison resist and reduced poison (and bleed) duration.

2. Retaliation

Now it has a 3rd one with those skill bonuses.

As for poison/acid belts, lets hope for some in the expansion i guess.

peace

Everyone who’s QQing about OFF has clearly never used Blade Trap before. That skill has the exact same problem, just replace fire resist shred with DA shred, life steal instead of freeze, and require 28 skill points instead of 16. That being said, builds do exist that specialize in single-target damage but have little AoE; Blade Trap and OFF are really meant for those cases (although why anyone would go Blade Trap when you can get Blade Spirits instead is beyond me).

And someone was complaining about how all boss CC items are being nerfed, Mark of the Apostate actually got a BUFF. I don’t see how that medal isn’t BiS for all poison/acid builds now.

Also, this is clearly the “I’ve leveled a WPS DW Blademaster to 85 and I’ve seen the error of my 1.0.0.8 nerfing ways, let me make amends” patch. Not that I’m complaining =)

Hardly saves pierce BM. In fact Cold BM with same devotions and mindset as cold SB is currently superior to Pierce BM…no points in dual blades just cold. Kinda sad.

Thanks for all the updates and your support Crate. An amazing game, my most favorite game of all times. Still playing it, after over 550 hours.
I cant wait for the expansion, oh god!!!

GOG patch should be up today.

Edit: it’s live now.

Hi fletchonides,

I just verified that the files that get installed via the GOG installer/updater are the same files that we sent to them. I am able to run with no problems.

The problem you are describing is typically a mismatch between the game and .DLL files, so this is strange. One thought is that maybe you are running an anti-virus program that maybe quarantined something from the new install? I would check that first (if you are running AV, that is). Barring that, I would try a re-install … make sure you back up your characters first!!

Are you sure you installed the right version? Because patch 1.0.0.9 (GOG-23) is not available yet, at least on my account…

Another one missing the point even after I pointed exactly what the point is?

Don’t give me all those “there are other belts” crap, because I’ve been using Valbury belts with rare affixes. They’re better in almost every way (all capped resistances and still shred everything). I don’t use Thorn Girdle past Lv70, so stop thinking that I’m complaining because it breaks my builds. (Perhaps you should have specified that earlier then).

Here it is again:
The point is that there are a crapton of legendary belts for Bleed damage already. Changing Thorn Girdle to Bleed drops the number of Acid/Poison legendary belts to a whopping ZERO. (I’m not going to argue that, it’s not great, but it’s not a crisis or anything, my point is there are temporary substituions until new items DO roll around).
While it doesn’t really matter when you argue about max-level characters, it does when you’re in mid-game levels. It also does matter in a game that emphasizes making your own builds, especially when you’re a beginner (and think legendaries are bomb) then search for legendary belts for your poison commando or whatever. (If you’re going to talk about mid-levels, then why not also consider epics? Hell, some empowered epics can even be used at high level now).

Not to mention the Wildblood belt gives pretty much the same things that the Thorn Girdle change is trying to achieve (niche builds involving vines) (Yeah, even with the Bleed Damage change, there’s still not any reason to use it, even the other Bleed belts like Boneweave outshine it. It needs another looking at again personally.).

The change to this belt is great in my opinion. I had no belt to use on my pistol Cadence build and decided to put the Thorn Girdle of the Misty Glade on for the +skills and bleeding damage.

By the way, do you guys know about Jeb’s Law?

I get that every time I boot up GD (steam version). It’s been happening since I upgraded to Windows 10. Just clicking through it results in the game playing fine though.

Why turn OFF into Ring of Frost? OFF as-is works perfectly fine even in Gladiator as pure crowd control.

Because crowd control = designed against trash. It’s not “boss control”.

You were the one that was saying OFF was OP, I just gave a suggestion to make it not so much.

I’m not asking for boss control I’m asking for a debuff (10% slow or 5% fumble) because having gear/abilities focused on only work on trash is a silly gimmick. Trash control is not needed unless your in crucible and even its pretty minor because trash poses little or no threat and if it does its high resistant to crowd control.

Lots of people seem to have reading comprehension issues. I’m not asking for perma freeze I’m asking for making more items and abilities to have relevance in the game, because variety is not a bad thing.

Getting the same error after installing GOG 1.0.0.9

Steam version works fine, my AV does not complain about either

Because trivializing 80% of the game with just one skill that needs no gear support has absolutely no relevance at all…

Oh ok you reinstalled the game completely… I thought you guys were talking about a patch, not about the full 3 GB file.
