Gloria Victis Balances Combat


270

Gloria Victis is tweaking combat once again, this week shortening the distance between new and experienced players. Players will find upon logging in that weapon damage has been adjusted as well as health scaling and passive abilities to ensure that higher level players won’t just roll over fresh accounts.

Other aspects of the game have been simplified, including the woodworking process, allowing for a more user-friendly interface to teach players how to craft their first weapons. Cost of resources has also been reduced for basic swords.

You can find the entirety of the patch notes at the link below.

Gloria Victis Adds NPC Battles, War Is Coming


253_logo

Gloria Victis’ latest patch is putting focus on player immersion, in the form of NPC battles and exhaustible resources. While the scope is starting out small, with animal hunting and mercenary fights, NPCs will eventually be engaging in all out war that players can join in on or dutifully side step away from. In addition to NPC battles, resources dotting the world will now deplete and be replaced with other goods, forcing players to move around if they want to find the best spots.

The most important change is implementation of fights between NPCs – foxes sneak towards the farms to hunt chickens and gooses, poachers hunt wild animals and mercenaries serving one nation rush on the another faction’s guards in sight in Valley of Death. In the upcoming updates various groups of NPCs will start waging their wars against another ones, bringing even more life to the world of Gloria Victis!

Meaningful NPC battles is a rarity in MMOs, with games like Tabula Rasa allowing NPCs to capture bases and prevent players from accessing quest NPCs, vendors, spawn points, etc.
