So after redeeming the Cerim armor set, i went to enchant it, beacuse why not? Turns out, that my chestplate got enchanted with one of the worst possible curse effects-Experience loss on damage taken. The enchantment is irreversible, the armor can only be redeemed once. I understand the “Weigh your choices approach”, but in such a overall terrific game a design choice like that is baffling. The armor SHOULD BE REDEEMABLE MORE THAN ONCE.
Ps. nowhere in the enchantment tooltip does it say, that the item can come out actually cursed. By that logic, items should be able to enchant into legendaries, at a low % chance. They can’t be though, as legendary items are hand crafted by the devs ( best weapons in the game ). Blatant mistake by the developers. The Cerim armor situation in discussion forums should be dealt with asap.
Love this game, thank you devs. We all see you listening to feedback
Indeed, the dev did mess up the Cerim set situation, not by only giving us one, but by not giving us the crafting plan for it. If it is an early access only set, give us the Blueprint so we can farm and craft as many of it as we want and hope for a decent roll.
You may have already figured this out, but the items can be redeemed once per realm. Go into another realm by making one, then redeem your cerim armor, and then delete the realm. I do this for plague Ichor too.
I think the blueprint/design for the set is the best idea mentioned. Then we can craft them and try to get Plagued version etc and re-roll them as needed.
I was hoping for different armor class designs for the Cerim set, not just one set and it only being mesh. And yeah, blueprints.
In general, I want a lot better more serious and Cerim/heroic transmogs.
A lot of the armors currently in the game are either super goofy, hobo-like, or just make you look like a town NPC or are the enemy armors, and enemies look like hobos outside the false remnant knights anyways.
It’s really hard to get a cool looking, serious hero archetype Cerim outfit. You just look like a weird random nobody.
Well, we’re also barely in the first act of the game storyline lol I know many more armor sets are going to be available once the game is fully released
Sure, but that does not address some of my points.
I stated several of the armor are npc and enemy armors, which you just show there. Your first is the Risen grenadier/flamethrower, the next is Roan’s armor (NPC), the next is a Risen bounty armor.
I do see that there are a couple of armors not belonging to NPC’s or the enemies, but those are currently a tiny minority.
And the point of my post was that the Cerim should feel DISTINCT from the enemies and NPC’s in an aesthetic sense.
We’re supposed to be our own order and culture of mysterious warriors, our attires should reflect that fact. We SHOULDN’T blend in with NPCs and enemies.
NPC’s will even comment that we have the markings of a Cerim, but that is not visible to the player, either in physical features or armor besides the preorder armor.
The request is to ask for more of that distinct Cerim identity to be made obvious through the armors and character customization.
I would even like for the Utility rune VFX to be Cerim themed at some point. I dislike the Illuminate update because it removed the cool blue whisper light for a more generic bright yellow light.
The Cerim ended up on this island. They find gear from enemies that used to be people, or bandits, soldiers etc. so it makes sense those items are from those. They didn’t bring a Cerim culture shopping mall with them. The EA reward set is like a restored version of what they were wearing on their journey here.
The island of Sacra was influenced by the Cerim in centuries of plague and pestilence. We find there a literal graveyard/crucible made for their dead warriors, as well as a giant portal right at the end of the story so far available in the game lol
They however have this thing called crafting stations all across Sacra, that you yourself as a Cerim use, and unless you have amnesia and the game hasn’t told you, your training years were probably spent learning a thing or two about the weapons and armor of the Cerim.
And just like Moonslice said, there’s Cerim chambers all over and the NPCs seem to be pretty aware that you “have the markings of a Cerim”, the alchemist knows what herbs affect the Cerim, so it’s not like it’s some virginal island unaware of Cerim traditions and motifs.
Basically…use one character to go to multiple realms to get multiple cerim amors to enchant until you get the one’s you want. Tedious, and a hassle, but worth doing if you want that armor.
