Path of martial arts: leaked sneak peaks, and discussing thread
- Thread starter Foulwarden
- Start date
I asked my Discord-frequenting friend about the EXP situation and he revealed three interesting pieces of information:
1 - There will be no more EXP (only Dao still gets Dao EXP), it will all be based on Qi (Pills will still work), but no specific details yet, and we'll get more Qi overall;
2 - There will be no more business talents or the option to buy artifacts, but we will receive Qi every week to balance it out (no details on the source yet);
3 - DR will be nerfed, apparently the limit will be 50%, but the overall damage should decrease (author's statement "There was a big issue with DR before where I had to have 100k damage to damage it, while 15k damage annihilated non-DR builds").

Business god got wrecked?...I wonder if Nicky is going to introduce a new talent...probably not imo
Also...Damn! We won't be able to buy shiny rings anymore?
Lol! But being seriously rn I do feel like these are good changes ngl
I just wish this was the last time Nicky reworked the game's mechanics...
So what happens to pre expo?? Like theres no qi before the volcano scene. Does it just stay the same?
That aside I always felt like DR was too op and basically the only worthwhile build so its good that its getting nerfed.
Imo we probably would be sent on offscreen missions where MC would slaughter and absorb beasts for qi or maybe Qi stones will be absorbed gradually, not instantly
Does Nicky seriously here? He specifically made so much damage for minmaxed DR builds, ignoring that it's overkill for any other build? This wrong on so many levels
This is just POMA for the last few years. A handful of hardcore people on discord discover a way to make the game easy and everyone else gets punished for it.
I've learned to not expect good balancing from this game. Cheat or play on a low difficulty but don't bother otherwise.
Ah man Nikki is really killing dr builds what will happen to stuff like asura berserk now? I'm screwed
Yes I remember why I left the discord early 2024, some would find a loophole or way to make great builds and here comes the soldiers “too easy” “why do you want a power fantasy” “needs a nerf” like the game is already built and written around mortal if I'm remembering correctly. They hate anyone finding a slight advantage lol.
Sorry, the way I wrote it may have given you a good chance of getting it wrong. I was referring only to the artifacts that the MC absorbs to obtain Qi. The items and equipment continue, in fact, they will even receive buffs, considering the new system.Business god got wrecked?...I wonder if Nicky is going to introduce a new talent...probably not imo

Do you mean EXP? I have no idea.
Yeah
Quote: "perks would probably be gone. I want to make it less 'gamey' so that there won't be a big dissociation between gameplay/story. The only one that would probably remain are revives"
I think my torch will point towards you for this, you caused this is one of your complaints
I’m glad he’s taking criticism and fixing things, I have high hopes for the future.
ngl I'm kinda hyped now. If the talents start getting acknowledged too it will be great
I also asked about this, I didn't mention it because apparently Nicky didn't give a decisive answer. Apparently, as well as busines talent, several others will be removed, only the "important" ones will remain, those with a good chance of at least receiving flavor content, and classifications such as Legendary and Epic will cease to exist. According to my friend, the only talent that Nicky described as "really important" was Iron Will.
