Companion Change | 11.19.2015, 10:13 AM
Hey folks,
Following the talk a bit about our specific design goals related to Companions:
- Leveling Content – Challenge Level: Low. To complete this content, a player should have a basic understanding of game mechanics and have level-appropriate gear. Their companion’s role shouldn’t matter.
- KotFE Chapters – Challenge Level: Low. Like leveling content, a player should have a basic understanding of game mechanics and have level-appropriate gear. Their companion’s role shouldn’t matter.
- [Heroic 2] Missions – Challenge Level: Medium. To complete this content, a player should have a good understanding of their Influence with their companion, and has a greater understanding of the game, they should be able to solo the hardest of these missions.
- Star Fortress – Challenge Level: Medium. These are similar to [Heroic 2] Missions. Star Fortresses should be similar to [Heroic 2] Missions. To complete this content, we expect you to have level-appropriate gear, a good understanding of your class, a companion with a few levels of Influence, as well as being in a role that supplements the player’s. We expect most players to be able to solo these with a little practice and effort on their part to gain some increased power.
- Heroic Star Fortress – Challenge Level: High. At this point we expect players to Players should have sought out gear upgrades, as well as increased their companions’ Influence level. These are meant to be challenging and difficult to do solo.
- “The One and Only” Achievement should still be possible. As an Achievement, this is definitely intended to be extremely hard and skilled player, with moderate to high Influence level with your companion, and very good gear on your character.
Based on these statements above, do you think that these are true after Tuesday’s changes? What content is more or less difficult than you expected? Is there something that is just flat out impossible?
Please give us your , and we simply ask you to be as constructive as possible. Include information such as:
- Your level
- Roughly Average Item Rating
- Discipline
- Companion
- Companion role
- Companion Influence level
- Which Mission or Star Fortress are you playing (Solo Mode? Heroic Mode?)
- Your personal experience while playing this content
If you have a video or other related content to go with your , feel free to link that as well as it will allow us the best insight into your experiences.
The team will be reviewing all , along with ing data, to see what / if any future adjustments need to be made. Thank you all in advance for your !
