STATE OF RAID & EVERYTHING COMING THIS SUMMER

When did lethal gear go from 2 set to a 4 set?

It is easy to complain about raid and I see the Godforge is going to take it down…but the player base is just as bad, people want the rewards from completing new content day one with the grind.

She'll be guarenteed from primals. 500 😂

Yeah, state of the game is dry. I posted a vid pulling 3 mythicals F2P and got 2 views.. :/

As a new player I didn't know where all my pinpoint came from. But now I do. I'll be farming that sh!t day and night. Bring it on!!!!!

time to return to King Arthur, Ash!

as a long time low to medium spender I am loving the new faction wars. an opportunity to rethink each battle and to use champions on my account whom I wouldn't have used ever. eg prundar

Plarium need to make some progress/updates/qol on these:
Minotaur
Campaign
Cost of gear removals
130 energy capacity
Inventory slots

I'm a fairly new player. Right now, there's a lot to do and many champions to collect and build up. But I can see once that is done, the game may become stale and boring. Whatever new additions to the game will need to be meaningful to keep longevity alive.

Great video 🔥 Have a great day!

Free gear removal... at all time

What gear did you use?

🫶🏼

How about a live arena where you don't know what your opponent picks? AND play against someone within your level range. I'm lvl 86, so someone 3 up 3 down (83-89) as opposed to 100..

I think everyone agrees there needs to be an overall tweak, that helps out the Free To Play to help out with their mid game costs.

Always appreciate your updates, your the subject matter expert. You speak very clear and concise, i would recommend other English as a second language players to watch your videos to learn English.

I work in Broadcast you, are the only Raid person I follow. Appreciate the guests, you are getting much better as a host be proud man.

The quick battle function on clan bosses should be made available to all without meeting any damage requirement. Most of us don't want to waste 5 minutes staring at a screen doing nothing🙂‍↔️they have already implemented it why not make it available to everyone without those damage limits

HI Ash Punisher here that mythical attach force champion looks like the leader for the swarm from starcraft and any info on spider normal 15 just comeing upto a year playing is for arbiter mission and your a legend i watch all your videos makes my day thanks

I think for new players, getting champs with promo codes is way better then it used to be, but I also think the new players might think it's to grindy for books and Sacreds and will deture them from playing. Just my opinion

I think faction wars hard mode Is very difficult. I Also want to say I'm bummed out. It baffles me why it cost so much for gear removal and swap!!!!😂 I constantly rum into silver issues trying to upgrade with all these events and tournaments and fusions, with my small budget, I'll never own a badass souls tones or +4 on amazing xhamps😂 .Anyways what does my opinion matter,

Been playing for 4 and a half years. When the relics came out, I stopped trying to stay up to date. I've never played Shogun. Not invested in Chimera. I can get a couple levels into FW hard and have no ambition to try harder. I barely play Cursed City. I basically do my dailies and fusions but I have no point. It's basically become a part time job. I only keep playing because I've put so much time into it. It's just part of my life I guess 🤷🏼‍♂️

As a new player, I'm 160 days in, the game will only overwhelm you if you let it, it's designed in a way where you're constantly playing catch up, and content that isn't supposed to be accessible becomes accessible way too early, unless you're spending a level 40ish account won't be able to do hydra or chimera, unless you're spending a level 50ish account won't be able to do cursed city, and I think that's raids whole plan, to make new players feel they have to spend and give them these "catch up" mechanics in the form of login champs to get them to the points where they feel that "need" quicker.
But you just have to tune it out and play at your own pace, so even though I'm like 2/3rds through normal fw, hard fw is not even something I'm looking at I don't have the roster or gear for that.

Things that are becoming annoying,
-you legit never have silver, like idk why everything costs silver, from removing gear to opening shards.
-the dungeons are just bad, you can farm with a bunch of energy on a 3x and maybe get one or 2 good pieces.
-the wishlist is genuinely useless, I've opened soulstones and gotten 6 star souls for champs I don't own, meanwhile the same 3 legendaries have been in that wishlist for the entire time I'm playing this game now are sitting soulless, which is particularly annoying when you have content that "requires"(using this loosely) souls, I'm taking arena, rooms in cc that require a specific amount of stars, bosses...like please either fix the wishlist or just make it so I can only get souls for the champs I actually own
-I wish the energy cap was higher, most games in this genre you're sitting on 300+ energy per day as your cap, what is 130 man...3 hard dungeon runs?
-minotaur is just outdated, waste of energy when theres so much to do in game, like you can't find the time it all

I'm doing Faction Wars Hard Mode... But... its another chore... on top of the fact that half the time, my champs go on strike when I try FW Hard.

I think even end game players like myself have a insanely hard time 3 staring the early stages of hard fact on wars just due to not having as many champions. I feel like it’s tailored to much to whale and krakens that have almost every champion to work with

Rotos killer??? Im not passing this guy up. Him and my arnorn will do work. Trying for blacktusk tomorrow

Here's my sentiment, the gap between f2p and big spenders and the gap between a 5 year old account and a 1 year old account are both too large to make content that is interesting for anyone. The krackens on old accounts just auto clear everything no matter what, and a f2p account that's a year old can't is going to be miserable in most of the harder content. Restricting champions and soul requirements piss me off. I'll be honest as a f2p player if they put one more fusion soul as a tournament reward I'm quitting. There's just no point in trying to play raid with soul requirements if I have no viable way to get them. The shop sucks, IT rewards are way to low, events cost to much, and if I can't get souls for fusions reliably I'm just shit out of luck.

All new attack champs are literally cut from the same cloth. Ignore defenses, etc. I liked when you had to have a strategy to place defense down and then let your nukers go to work, now you don't even need that anymore. And for godsakes do something about the silver. EVERY DAMN THING NEEDS SILVER! With all the new content, I run out of silver constantly.

Hope we can keep the previous max level of the champion that we rank up. Instead of wasting whole lot of energies to it again.

Really like cursed city. Don't do Clan Siege. I am looking forward to Faction Wars Hard. Wish it was easier to get Mythical & Legendary Champs. I wouldn't say the game is stale, because I am in limbo trying to get through different sections. Takes so long. 😊

I’ve quit playing several times. Here’s why.

Takes way too long to get a champion useable. Mainly it’s a lack of energy. It’s a lot of energy to just put on masteries let alone level them up.

Lack of books. I’ve got so many Legos that I’m not using much cuz of not having books. Not to mention mythical books those are out of my reach.

If they fixed mino, added more energy. Made it easier to get books. I’d spend a lot more time in game. I love playing raid. I hate that I can’t get a new champion, put books and masteries into them. Put gear on them. Instead I’ve got great champions warming the vault waiting on me to get the materials

heard his A1 and said "OMG pair him with the Queen!"

How to get the event Lego.. In Plarium logic, 2x on Legos from red shards. 15x on Event Champ from red shards, normal mythic rates from reds.

Lovely videos, im glad you were able to be vulrable with us. It was even better than a Teodor from an ancient shard🙏

Primal shards are a scam for those that dont spend on primal shards.

Personally I like Chimera, havent had an issue with the rng yet, unlike Hydra which was ok until they messed up the rng.

How about something simple like making it much faster for players to fully upgrade the Great Hall.. I'm 5 years in and still need like 15 categories to level 10.. most are at level 6.. way too many arena fights are needed.

I wonder if In-Clan PvP is possible...for endgame Clan bragging rights lol

FW Cursed City doom tower 2.0.. lol Its way too hard. There is a way to incorporate the special conditions needed mechanic to the content without making seem like a impossible task, and you know as soon as someone finds a champ that makes it look easy Plarium will nerf that champ super quick.

With the FW Hard I'm in the "it's too overtuned" grouping... Some of my factions just blow through it while other factions just cant progress at all! Honestly, I wish they'd invest more time into updating older powercrept champs!

I've been playing Raid over 6+ years what they need to do for Quality of Life fixes is...
Let off a little of the Grind and RNG accelerator pedal and give the players,
...More shards and incentives to value our time playing their game !
[[ ALSO DO LIVE STREAMS SO WE CAN DO A Q&A SESSION WITH THE DEVS !!! ]]

Because instead of making a new interesting mode they just copy and pasted the old one and changed their color……. That’s just lazy, at least make new bosses or… SOMTHING not just a copy and paste. That’s boring

Need free gear removal on all the time. Watcher or realms does

Ash, so far, I don't see any effects on Plarium of their new owners. I admit, I have been waiting to see if the game would be improved since Plarium finally changed hands, and I'm disappointed to see that nothing has changed. Plarium still makes content aimed only at the whales and krakens, ignoring how badly the game plays for the rest of us.

The day that Godforge launches is likely the last time I log into my RAID account. In my mind, Plarium has until then to give players what they've been asking for in the game FOR YEARS, I'll take their continued inaction to mean that they are never going to respond to their player community.

her alt kinda reminds me of kerrigan from Starcraft

Next patch should be all about community, friendly battles, QOL changes, people would come back

I have been playing for 2 yrs +. Just got Lydia a couple months ago. Hard mode brings me a new challenge but one that I fear will take 4 more.

Hard Faction Wars are only for end game players. Why make something just for specific players. Everyone should be able to play the new content.

I like the FW hard idea, but there are quite a few issues that I think holds it back and makes it not fun.

Silver: It requires building new champions to handle all these waves and conditions. That means silver to rank up, silver to book, silver to gear, Silver to level up with brews, silver to switch gear if you need like a stun set or something. There is not enough silver to handle all the costs.

Books: again, it requires us building new champs, but quite a few are unusable without the cd decrease skill ups. I tried to do the sacred order stage and wanted to use/build hansel, gretel, sir nick, lady noelle and bivauld but none of them have books let alone gear to use.

Champs: Each faction does not have enough solid champs that can achieve the clear conditions. Most epics I've found don't have AoE skills for the conditions only single target, or if they do have AoE it's not a 100% chance to land. Trying to land say 10 freeze on a single target skill with a 4+ cd is painful. You have no choice but to try control the wave for ages without killing them to get it done. Should put out a few epic champion buffs where activation rates are improved or single target skills become AoE.

Waves: we have clear conditions for each stage, yet every stage has waves with multiple cleanses/block debuffs, single/multiple revivers, a lockout champ, a block active skills champ etc. So as well as the clear conditions you need control, buff removers, block debuffs, block buffs(if you cc the cleanser) or enough damage that you can nuke them down and have the cds you need back up for next wave to nuke again before they move. Seems to defeat the point of the clear conditions to me?

I like the whole working towards something and knowing the reward at the end and getting the smaller rewards along the way having to work for it. When you finally complete it you feel good. It's a challenge and so it should be, but I think there are factors outside the actual mode that shouldn't be a factor.

Anyone struggling I find support champs to be better to have than damage dealers. 1 reviver in case things go wrong and then a stun/provoke champ. Criodan really makes slyvan a breeze and Armanz makes barbarians trivial. Just stun and toy with then until you complete the condition then take them out.

A small minor trick, on dark elves wave 3 with uugo, if you have lost a champ, lock uugo out with Lydia A3, kill all the other champs and leave uugo last then let uugo revive. Lydia will deny the revive and bring your champs back and give you 3 stars. Works with any revive but that's the only one I've noticed and used so far. I don't have a great revive option for them buf Lydia works great if you manipulate the Ai.

I want a mode that's rogue-like in style. You start with a team, you go through random rooms, choose between branching paths that can lead to different types of battles, events, bonuses, etc., and you get upgrades that can be selected from a random pool as you progress. I really enjoy that kind of gameplay, and I think it could be particularly interesting in Raid given the wide variety of team builds that are possible.

Your welcome thanks for your good good vibes 🙏
