Ah, there will be no unique log-in rewards for the Summer Event, like there was for the Winter Event? I felt that went pretty well for the Winter Event.

Ok, so I'll address A1/A2 in two seperate posts, A2 first. With Age 2, Nannus is currently the indisputable king. However, if Nannus was nerfed, then another Caravan advisor would become the best. And if all Caravan advisors were nerfed to the point that other A2 advisors can come into play...

Hrmm, in A1, there really aren't any advisors that are absolutely overpowered. Philon and Zephyros are both considered to be among the strongest A1 advisors pretty much. Overall, A1 advisors, even the strongest among them, aren't that overall high-impact compared to, say, A4 advisors. And I've...

Also, here are links to previous Advisor reworks as well as some developer thoughts on those reworks (As well as earlier, often useless versions of Advisors) https://forums.projectceleste.com/threads/advisor-balance-changes-and-reworks.4453/...

Hrmm, in terms of nerfs, let me think. Caeser, of course, is obvious - The combination of 50% train time reduction, 20% speed boost, and ofc the gargantuan 50% ignore armor is just too much in a single package. Personally, I believe the Ignore Armor is the biggest contributor to Caeser's power...

Hrmm. Current token system can be extremely discouraging to new players - 100 tokens a week, which is highly gold intensive when even 50k is alot, is a rate that yields only 1 single bahram piece per 2 years. However, I don't think creating new unique pieces is the answer. I suggest adding...

Again, most of my numbers come from the idea that all advisors should be close enough to each other that even niche advisors can be used on any quest, simply adjusting priority/gameplay. I'll simply state my reasoning for several advisors that currently do have obvious balancing problems...

@Aryzel just trying to identify Advisors that are either lacking/inferior to similar advisors, and a little bit of trying to identify Advisors that may need to be brought down to parity, like Julius Caeser. I'm sidelining a bit trying to figure out what's good parity for A1 advisors especially...

To be precise, I was referencing to Kleon's value on maps where you do not have access to Caravans/Markets - Come Together being the best example, where you aren't going to get a good merchant transport line and you have a set amount of gold on the map itself, maps where Kleon is one of the...

Merchant Transports in Champion Mode are confirmed to have a Work Rate of 1.3. On a 300x300 map (I believe Normal PvP maps to be this size) Merchant Transports have a gold generation value of 2.41 gold/second without the A4 upgrade, and 3.44 gold/second with the A4 upgrade - Thus Water dominance...

Now, this talk on Conservation has actually made me consider something else - @Aryzel, you stated that most A1 advisors give resource savings in the 500-1200 resource range. However, when conservation was added to a number of advisors, these numbers have drastically changed. For instance, Miner...

Yea, agree to disagree on the point of advisors. One last clarification - Every single mini-game/special quest can be completed with an unoptimal, or even no advisor setup, and often times with little or no struggle if you are an experienced player. However, having an unoptimal advisor setup on...

While I haven't mentioned it in this thread, the issue with A2 Caravan advisors is thus : Caravans are strong, most quests are currently balanced around Caravan's strength, and you'd effectively have to nerf every Caravan advisor because otherwise you'd just wind up using, say, Zeno if you...

If you have strong general-purpose advisors, then niche advisors have to be even stronger in their niche to be worthwhile - And the strength of said niche can defer greatly. Philon, for instance is the most general purpose advisor in the game - With only a handful of exceptions (Unite the...

Heron - Yea, you have a point on Snare Immunity not scaling through rarities, so should be fine to add the LoS back - LoS doesn't have any combat benefits. Now he scales via rarity. Minos - Could also just give snare immunity, though there are more infantry with snare immunity then there are...

They are underpreforming in that either A) They support the build of a single unit type, but in PvE you never, ever use that unit, or B) They can be used with any unit build, but their effect is weak enough to the point that you don't use them. Since you used Erastos as an example - On most...

Yes, and there are many other older A4 advisors that have become redundant with the addition or occaisional rework of Legendary Advisors.

Instead of simply dismissing ideas, could you actually come up with alternatives? It's pretty much solid meta that the top 2 A1 advisors are Philon and Zephyros. All other A1 advisors are either useful in niche scenarios (Thutmose, Finnbar, ect), or outright useless. So, please, give...

That would be more along the lines of buffing Royal Guards. As an Advisor, General Zu is actually quite solid, providing both a significant cost reduction on an expensive unit, as well as providing a very large defensive buff. Additionally, it seems that the Devs want to stay away from giving...

As for A4 advisors - ima be honest, there is a LOT of imbalance here, mainly due to Legendary Advisors. Not only is there a good amount of overlap between a number of Legendary and Epic advisors (There are at least 6 examples of a Legendary advisor doing something that a Epic Advisor does, but...
