Thread: We're getting stat allocation back in 1.20, right?

Bringing back the merit system would be a good way to bring allocation back.

Actually, although I did quit for a while, I remember talks of the removal of physical levels, and the stat allocation was removed along with it,not because of in-balancing issues. They were retooling stats as a whole also we no longer had physical levels, and allocation was directly tied to that. What are you going on about? You seem very butthurt for no goddamn reason.

this is 100% correct.
the system wasnt removed due to complaints or difficulty in balancing.
it was literally removed temporarily because our stats were overhauled and so they needed to rework the allocation system to go along with it....... NOT because they were having too hard of a time to balance it.

where are you guys getting stat allocation balance issues? the devs never once stated they had too hard of a time balancing stat allocation.

This. ^^^^

They mentioned the point to its removal was that they couldn't get the stats saveed to class feature in the update in time. They got the feature that lets us save spells/abilities set up per class in, but not the statistical counterpart.

Yep, it will be possible to manually distribute attribute points in 1.20. It'll be possible to allocate attribute points manually once you're above a certain level, but since there were balance adjustments made in 1.19, you will not be able to allocate as many points as in the past.

Sounds perfectly sensible.

Are stat allocations class specific, and preserved like our action bars are now? Or will I have to re-allocate my stats every time I change class?

If I have to re-allocate stats every time I switch classes, then please, don't re-introduce this until the stat allocation is saved with each class like the action bars.

Yeah, they are. Thats the exact reason why they said it didn't make it into the last update, was that they didn't have time to get it prepared to compliment the saving per class of the ability bars.

If that's the case, then sweet!! Although.. the last time I had stat allocation left up to me, I could take physical dmg all day until someone cast a spell on me.. hahaha!!
