Lootun 0.8 Preview: Divine Items

Lootun 0.8 Preview: Divine Items

Greetings Everyone. Welcome to the first of a short series of previews for the upcoming 0.8 content update. In this preview I will cover the new Divine Items that can be found in the 0.8 Factions Update.

Divine Items:


Divine Items are a new Rarity of Item that can be found rarely by defeating most Bosses in the game. Divine Items have the same number of Attributes as Mythical Items but have unique Item Bonuses instead of the usual Bonus Attributes.



Drop Locations:


In 0.8 most Bosses in the game will have at least 1 Divine Item that can drop from them with some of the more challenging Bosses offering multiple Divine Items. By default Divine Items drop very rarely but can be found more frequently as you gain more Luck and Fortune.



Divine Attributes:


In addition to their unique Item Bonuses, Divine Items always roll with Max Attribute Ranks and will automatically update to the new Max Rank as you add Paragon Levels to the Item. Divine Items also do not cost Upgrade Cores when Rerolling, Randomising or Transmuting Attributes, meaning when you obtain a Divine Item you can cheaply craft your desired Attributes onto the Item.



As I continue to develop Lootun and work through the Roadmap I plan to add more Divine Items into the game with each major update.

Enchant Stacking:


Currently in Lootun you only gain the effect of each Enchant once regardless of how many copies of the Enchant you have equipped. In 0.8 many Enchants will be stackable allowing you to improve the effect of the Enchant by equipping multiple copies. Stackable effects are displayed as a bracketed number in green.



This stacking system also applies to Divine Item Bonuses.

Wrap Up:


That’s all for this preview, thank you for reading this far. I am hoping to have a preview of the upcoming Factions system out next week.

As always feel free to leave any suggestions or comments here, or on the Discord.

Lootun 0.7 Preview: Agony Missions

Greetings Everyone. Welcome to another preview for the 0.7 content update. In this preview I will be going over the basics for the new endgame system: Agony Missions.

Agony Missions:


Agony Missions can be unlocked after you have made some progression through the Bounty system and are intended to be run alongside the Bounty system initially, before vastly out scaling the Bounty system in terms of both Difficulty and Rewards as you reach the later Agony Levels.

Map Modifiers:


In order to run an Agony Mission you will first need to apply a Map Modifier to it, once you have done so you may run the Agony Mission as many times as you like. As you progress through the Agony system you will gain access to more Map Modifiers allowing you to greatly increase the difficulty and rewards granted by each Mission.



Agony Levels:


Each Map Modifier you apply to a Mission will increase its Agony Level by 1 up to a maximum level of 10. As the Agony Level increases so too does the effect of each Map Modifier further increasing the difficulty.

Each Agony Level will also increase the chance that a regular Monster spawn is replaced by an Agony Monster. Agony Monsters are more challenging than regular Monsters but provide more powerful Equipment Drops. At the later Agony Levels you will also encounter Agony Bosses that provide very powerful rewards but pose an even greater challenge.

Mission Library:


As you progress through Agony Missions you will be able to store different Modifier Loadouts in the Mission Library allowing you to quickly access your save Missions without the need to reselect their Modifiers.

Rewards:


Agony Missions provide a number of different rewards including greater access to Nemesis and Paragon Items as well as many rewards unique to Agony Missions.

Item Rewards:


Each Map Modifier has several associated Item drops that are added to the Reward Chest drop pool when active on a Mission. Theses items typically provide bonus attributes related to the Modifier effect. For example applying the Bleed Modifier will grant some items that boost your Bleed Damage and Bleed Avoidance. There are currently over 40 new Items that can be obtained this way.





Soul Tools:


Soul Tools are a new Tier of Tool that can be obtained rarely from Agony Mission Reward Chests. Soul Tools provide double the normal Attribute bonuses to gathering allowing you to generate a much higher quantity of Materials from Professions. In addition Soul Tools provide access to the new Soul Materials.



Upgrade Kits & Item Reinforcement:


Upgrade Kits are also obtained from the Agony Mission Reward Chests and offer a new form of Item Upgrade; Reinforcement. Reinforcement allows you to improve the default stats of your Weapons, Offhands and Armour. These stats include the Weapon Damage and Armour values provided by each item allowing you to gain a significant power boost through Reinforcement.





Mission Infusion:


By spending Gold to Infuse your Agony Missions you can obtain an additional Reward Chest for each Boss kill and therefore greatly increase the amount of loot you get from each Mission. However, this Infusion process is quite expensive so it’s unlikely you will be able to Infuse every Mission you run.

Wrap Up:


That’s all for this preview, thank you for reading this far. I hope to have some news regarding a 0.7 Beta release within the next week or two.

As always feel free to leave any suggestions or comments here, or on the Discord or Subreddit.

Lootun 0.7 Preview: Ascendancy Rework

Greetings Everyone. Welcome to the first of a short series of previews for the upcoming 0.7 content update. In this preview I will cover the changes being made to Ascendancy Classes in 0.7.

Ascendancy Cooldowns:


Currently each Ascendancy Class has a unique Ascendancy Cooldown. While these Cooldowns mean that each Ascendancy has something unique to it I felt that they were not very impactful in terms of either build design or in combat as they simply offered a temporary bonus to some attributes. In 0.7 Ascendancy Cooldowns will be removed and replaced with Ascendancy Powers.

Ascendancy Powers:


Each Ascendancy Class now has it’s own Ascendancy Power which acts as a permanent passive effect for the Character.



Ascendancy Passives:


In 0.7 you will still gain 1 Ascendancy passive point per level but they will be split among 2 different groups of passives:

Ascendancy Specific Passives:


Each Ascendancy Class now has it’s own set of passives to choose from. These passives are typically more interesting than just providing flat attribute bonuses and are often based around the Ascendancy Power of the Class.



At Ascendancy level 50 you will have 10 passive points to spend on these Ascendancy Class specific passives with each passive having a max rank of 1.

Barbarian Passives Preview:



Assassin Passives Preview:



Archmage Passives Preview:



Generic Ascendancy Passives:


In addition to the Ascendancy specific passives you will still have access to the attribute based Ascendancy passives that exist in the game currently along with 5 new attribute based passives.



At Ascendancy level 50 you will have 40 passive points to spend on these generic passives with each passive having a max rank of 4.

Ascendancy Relics:


Finally, Ascendancy Relics are also being updated. The Ascension Bonus of each Relic will now provide the Ascendancy Power of the corresponding Ascendancy Class.



The Ascension Bonus of the equipped Relic stacks with the Ascendancy Power of the same Class by modifying the passive effect value. For example if you have an Assassin using an Assassin Relic your Poison effect will deal 30% Weapon Damage per Second instead of 15%.

Alternatively, as Ascendancy Relics no longer have Class requirements, you could choose to mix and match Ascendancy Powers. For example you could have an Assassin that also applies stack of Bleed when attacking by using a Barbarian Relic. Overall this should allow for more interesting build possibilities.

In addition to the Ascension change Ascendancy Relics have also had their attribute pool updated. The attributes that can roll on an Ascendancy Relic should now be more useful to a greater variety of builds and when combined with the reduced number of attributes in the pool should make finding powerful Relics much more frequent.

Wrap Up:


That’s all for this preview, thank you for reading this far. I am very excited to get 0.7 out for release and am hoping to get a preview of the Agony Missions system out very soon.

Upcoming Endless Spire Changes:


I just wanted to give a heads up regarding a slight rework to the Endless Spires mission that will take place in the next patch (0.6.7). This is not the rework that will be included in the 1.0 Update but instead some small changes to make the game mode slightly more balanced / less tedious to scale.

This rework will involve:



  • Reducing the maximum floor level to 999 (currently 9999).
  • Increasing the rate that monster HP scales with each floor.
  • Increasing the rate that monster Damage scales with each floor.
  • Increasing the amount of Luck granted for clearing each floor.
  • Introducing a new checkpoint system allowing you to start your progress at certain levels once you have reached them at least once.

As a consequence of this rework any active Endless Spires missions will be cancelled and the "Max Consecutive Completions" stats for Endless Spires will be reset when 0.6.7 Releases.
