Hey everyone! Playtest-4 is now available on the Discord! Discord Go to #roles and react to the Playtester message. With that you get access to the playtester-channels where you can download the playtest-version. in playtest-4 the focus is on adding the foundation of gathering, resources and crafting to the game. Additionally this implements and adds improvements over the last playtest version, like:

• Monsters cannot spawn 2 times in a row anymore
• Certain stronger monsters now start spawning when the player reaches a certain lvl (mushroom-soldier on lvl 3, floating rune stone on lvl 4)
• Added Resource-Costs to crafting recipes
• Reworked Crafting-Tooltip to show cost + resource goes red when you dont have enough
• The player will encounter gathering-encounters (only iron for now) after a set amount of monsters defeated (after 2 combat victories)
• Gathering Nodes have a limited timer with milestones where the player gets resources depending on his mastery-level in the according gathering-mastery. The further you get the higher the rewards from the mining-node.
• Changed damage calculation to weapon-based from global damage (this will enable dual wield or special weapon scalings)
• Did a rough balancing pass for monsters and items. Balancing is still temporary/placeholder.
• Some improvements of the system-windows
• Added Resource-drops to visualise and give feedback on the loot you get from monsters
