    Loot Drop Rates??

    It is worth mentioning that while there has been a bug preventing certain items from dropping, that has not affected the overall number of legendary items that have dropped and did, in turn, increase the drop rate of the legs that did drop.

    Loot Drop Rates??

    Advisors are naturally constrained because you can only use four of them at once. Players use dozens of items at once. If we buffed legendary gear, we would run a much higher risk of making the game demonstrably easier and knocking it out of whack. We could obviously survive if we buffed a...

    Weekly Blog: Summer Mail Bag

    We have discussed increasing the rewards for Cyprus Skirmish, as right now they are godawful. I do not believe that is actively being worked on, but on some list somewhere in our heads. Is there something else regarding Skirmish that you have in mind?

    I know that Kev is working on a more customizable arena that would include selecting player colors, so maybe one day you can always be red Romans if you wanted.

    Weekly Blog: Summer Mail Bag

    Since we are taking down some walls this week to get some fresh air into our pressure cooker, I’ll cough that we are thinking about one day housing some kind of speed run PvE leaderboard in the Circus Maximus (or perhaps elsewhere in Rome). The City of Rome will be open at launch but not nearly...

    Weekly Blog: Summer Mail Bag

    It's the middle of summer, the sun is hot, the Summer Event is late, the Romans are slow, the blog is overdue, COVID is in full bloom, and everyone's a little edgy. PF2K is taking a much deserved vacation of indeterminate length, so I have appointed myself this week’s messenger. Rather than...

    The opinion of a frustrated fan

    I believe we devs have an agreement in principle to better label Leg Quest difficulty and/or recalibrate Leg Quest rewards. But iirc we haven’t come to any final plans. Hopefully one day.

    The opinion of a frustrated fan

    As developers, we face a wide and disparate group of players that fall on a spectrum of skill levels and a separate spectrum of gear level. We are charged with creating content for all of you to enjoy and find appropriately challenging. The wider the spectrum of players, the more often any given...

    PF2K reminded me that we are recycling the Gaesatae’s voice for Balearic Slingers. There’s a fair amount of recycling in the game, and so we penciled that in a long time ago.

    Yes, tons of liberties. I think the Egyptians speak some kind of Arabic.

    hi @Dacio ! We presently intend for all Roman units to speak in Latin. I suppose there is room to argue that the three Auxilia Camp Units (Balearic Slingers, Cretan Bowmen, and Gallic Horsemen) should speak different languages. However, I believe that other Units from other parts of the world...
