Could we make it so that the lower your ua/mc the higher you can close your defenses to a point?

It's so cute when you make a half brained change without consulting the player base and change mechanics that you don't understand how they work or how they're used, and then get mad when it isn't well received. This is like the 6th time you've done it, most people would learn a lesson by now. We're more than happy to have a civil conversation about a change this like given proper notice so we can explain the risks and why it's a bad idea, but or course we're going to be upset when you just randomly push this to production on a Friday with no notice.
i mean it didn't hurt anyone and they did the revert pretty fast after understanding it was a bad idea

To be perfectly fair, when it comes to things like Combat, it should be discussed in advance.
Changes like that effectively determine life and death in this game.

And death is just harsh.

Where is the fix for charter stones? Wtf?

SO many bad changes in this update, but I am glad to at least finally see some development again. The game has been dying extra fast without updates. And this is already the fastest dying world I've ever seen.

Legacy combat revolved around movement combat because you could easily clip people, especially with stuff like body summons, signs, terrain, etc. Unless you remove pathfinding, legacy combat just wouldn't work.

I've been playing Grindion Grindline, and I really enjoy the noob combat experience there (No major penalty to noob's being KO'd).

I'm guessing chest drumming emote is behind rage and not cave hermit, but still cool that you added it.
